Esta novela cuenta la relación de Martino, un ambicioso profesor de piano de 26 años, con una adolescente, Martina, de 15. Una historia de amor y desamor que trasciende, pese a las dificultades de la edad, más allá del encuentro inicial. Es una historia de amor y de amores, pero a la vez trata de los problemas de la juventud actual: un muchacho perdido, intentando construir un asidero que dé norte a su vida y el deseo de ascenso de clase cultural y social. Escrita con capítulos cortos y frases breves, al estilo de su saga de Sabores, es una novela llena de historias, que se suceden como en cascadas, y que aumentan en tensión según se va desarrollando la relación.

Entre 1292 i 1293 Dante va escriure la Vida nova, relat en prosa i en vers en el qual ens explica la trobada amb Beatriu, personatge d'extraordinària vàlua i bellesa, de qui s'enamora de manera singular. Aquest amor transforma tan substancialment el poeta, que la seva personalitat en resulta del tot renovada. Les visions i les al·legories conformen aquest llibret, diari d'una profunda metamorfosi i del descobriment de la figura d'una dona com a agent de salvació i guia inigualable. En la Beatriu d'aquesta nova vida del poeta s'hi reconeix ja la Beatriu que haurà de guiar-lo pel Paradís de la Divina Comèdia. Per a la present edició hem recuperat la traducció catalana que en va fer Manuel de Montoliu a la Biblioteca Popular de «L'Avenç» el 1903, revisada a la vista de les més solvents edicions modernes.

Jane Austen's brilliant, hilarious - and often outrageous - early stories, sketches and pieces of nonsense, in a beautiful Penguin Classics clothbound edition.Jane Austen's earliest writing dates from when she was just eleven years, and already shows the hallmarks of her mature work: wit, acute insight into human folly, and a preoccupation with manners, morals and money. But they are also a product of the eighteenth century she grew up in - dark, grotesque, often surprisingly bawdy, and a far cry from the polished, sparkling novels of manners for which she became famous. Drunken heroines, babies who bite off their mother's fingers, and a letter-writer who has murdered her whole family all feature in these very funny pieces. This edition includes all of Austen's juvenilia, including her 'History of England' - written by 'a partial, prejudiced, and ignorant Historian' - and the novella 'Lady Susan', in which the anti-heroine schemes and cheats her way through high society. Taken together, they offer a fascinating - and often surprising - insight into the early Austen.This major new edition is the first time Austen's juvenilia has appeared in Penguin Classics. Edited by Christine Alexander, it includes an introduction, notes and other useful editorial materials.

Spurred by a lifelong fascination with the great emperor, French novelist Honoré de Balzac set himself the painstaking task of collecting a selection of Napoleon’s aphorisms from his public speeches and the gazettes of the time.Arranged into four themes (covering social life, the military arts, the exercise of power and the teachings of experience and misfortune), Napoleon’s pithy pills of wisdom –often Machiavellian, cynical, dry and sometimes cruel– offer a unique insight into the mind of a man who prided himself on preferring action over thought and the sword over the pen, and conjure up one of the most eminent and influential historical figures of all time.''

Living overseas but writing, always, about his native city, Joyce made Dublin unforgettable. The stories in Dubliners show us truants, seducers, gossips, rally-drivers, generous hostesses, corrupt politicians, failing priests, amateur theologians, struggling musicians, moony adolescents, victims of domestic brutishness, sentimental aunts and poets, patriots earnest or cynical, and people striving to get by. In every sense an international figure, Joyce was faithful to his own country by seeing it unflinchingly and challenging every precedent and piety in Irish literature.
