Classic Summer Stories - Becky Brown - książka
Producent: Macmillan Books
This sun-soaked collection of summer stories is filled with enchanting elements such as boats, beaches, and mysteries. In Algernon Blackwood’s ‘The Olive’, two strangers experience a surreal encounter abroad. F. Scott Fitzgerald captures a spontaneous meeting with a first love in ‘Between Two Planes’. Willa Cather takes readers on explorations of islands at sunset, while Virginia Woolf describes the familiar scene of a drowsy nap in the garden. However, these summer dreams can also be interrupted by darker events, such as Guy de Maupassant’s deadly fishing dispute, Selma Lagerlöf’s touch of sinister fairy magic, and Sherlock Holmes facing the challenge of unraveling a murder mystery on the Cornish coast. Ranging from light-hearted humor to profound nostalgia, and spanning Italian resorts to the Russian countryside, each story offers a journey to new destinations. As part of the Macmillan Collector’s Library, these pocket-sized editions are ideal for travel. This particular edition has been compiled and introduced by anthologist Becky Brown.
