When he turned 65, the playwright Simon Gray began to keep a diary: not a careful honing of the days' events with a view to posterity but an account of his thoughts as he had them, honestly, turbulently, digressively expressed. One of Britain's most amusing and original writers reflects on a life filled with cigarettes (continuing), alcohol (stopped), several triumphs and many more disasters - a record of shame, adultery, friendship and love. Few diarists have ever been so frank about themselves and even fewer so entertaining.

Иван Алексеевич Бунин первый русский писатель, получивший Нобелевскую премию по литературе. В 1933 году автор Темных аллей и многочисленных рассказов получил мировое признание с формулировкой: "за строгое мастерство, с которым он развивает традиции русской классической прозы". Не секрет, что по резкости своих оценок, не только литературных, но и общечеловеческих, Бунин не знал себе равных. Не удивительно, что многие современники хотя и признавали его литературный талант, но отмечали сложность его характера и считали высокомерным снобом.

Libertin, épicurien, esthète et séducteur incorrigible, Giacomo Casanova incarne le 18e siècle. Grâce à ses mémoires où il consigne ses moindres faits et gestes, de 1725 à 1798, nous pénétrons dans l'intime du 18e, des menus, des lieux, des pensées, des goûts de l'époque. Rédigées en français, ses mémoires, dont le manuscrit est accessible sur le site de la B.N.F., expriment son amour, immense, des femmes et de la vie, avec une précision parfois croustillante et une verve toujours savoureuse.

Die tief reichende Freundschaft, in welcher die zwei bekanntesten Dichterfürsten aus deutschsprachigen Landen miteinander verbunden waren, begann laut einigen Quellen alles andere als günstig, da beim ersten Treffen der beiden Goethe Schiller weder erkannte noch diesem irgendwelche Beachtung schenkte. Das änderte sich mit der Zeit, nachdem sich Goethe näher über Schillers Werk informierte und beide in regen Gedankenaustausch traten, besonders in vorliegender Briefwechsel-Reihe.

A raw, real, gut-wrenching, and unflinching novella about trauma, family, and the weight of silence. Fifteen-year-old Asher Davis has been carrying a secret for four years.

But stepping into his high-society world means more than learning to read a menu in French.

By the early 1890’s Kate's short stories were published nationally. With this widespread audience also came negative reviews, controversy, and cries of immorality as themes such as interracial relationships, the rights of women and other burning issues of the day were written about.

Salt Letters to a Younger Me is a tender correspondence between memory and tide—a series of lyrical letters written by a marine biologist to his younger self. Each letter drifts between science and solitude, salt and sorrow, tracing how the sea mirrors the human heart: its erosion, its return, its endless capacity to begin again. Through quiet observations of coral bleaching, migrating whales, and the hush of coastal dawns, the narrator learns that every loss leaves behind a mineral trace—something that glimmers even after grief recedes.

Austrian writer Ingeborg Bachmann (1926-73) is recognized as one of post-World War II German literature’s most important novelists, poets, and playwrights.

Friedrich Nietzsche gilt bis heute als Spitze der philosophischen Nahrungskette. Sein umfassendes Werk deckt wissenschaftliche, künstlerische, philosophische und philologische Schriften ab. Nietzsche beeinflusste Maler, Literaten, Musiker, Wissenschaftler und Künstler aller sogenannten Genres und birgt nach wie vor gesellschaftliches Dynamit. Gerade wegen der Zeitlosigkeit und Aktualität seiner Schriften haben es keinerlei Gruppierungen jeglicher Art versäumt, sich schamlos an aus dem Zusammenhang gerissenen Formulierungen Nietzsches zu bedienen und auf ihre Fahnen zu schmieren.
