＜p＞In a future England, governed by the authoritarian Party of Order and Nation, individuals are selected at random to live in enforced poverty. The policy is called ‘the Price’: in order for the majority to live well, the policy states, a minority must go without. Equality is impossible.＜/p＞ ＜p＞One morning, office worker Krystan Hoad is told that he has been assigned to pay that price. As his world is turned upside down, a story of revolution unfolds through snapshots of the lives of twelve interconnected individuals: a network of dissidents called The Dream League; a robotics genius persecuted by a corrupt police officer; a mysterious agent of the resistance; a wealthy gallery owner leading a double life; a questioning civil servant at the heart of government; and a young woman with a secret mission...＜/p＞ ＜p＞Through these and others, a portrait unfolds of life under the shadow of the Price: the surveillance drones and police androids that maintain order, life at the bottom and the top, and the beginnings of an uprising...＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Life-Story of Charlotte de la Tr?moille, Countess of Derby【電子書籍】[ Mary Catherine Rowsell ]

＜p＞Charlotte de la Tr?moille was born at Thonars in Poitou in 1601. The fine old ch?teau in which the first days of her eventful life dawned upon her was the heritage of her ancestors, and now by right of birth belonged to her father, Claude de la Tr?moille. The ch?teau is beautifully situated upon a hill, around whose base the river Thone runs so far as to give it the appearance of an island. Charlotte was the second child of her parents, whose style and title are thus described in their contract of marriage signed at Chatelh?raut in 1598:ー Claude de la Tr?moille, Duke de Thonars, peer of France, Prince de Tarente and de Talmont, with the very noble and gracious Dame Charlotte Brabantine de Nassau, daughter of William the Silent, Prince of Orange, and of his third wife, Charlotte de Bourbon Montpensier. Thus the noblest blood of France and of Nassau ran in the veins of the child who was destined to play such an heroic part in the land of her adoption, and whose romantic story stands enshrined in England’s historic annals. She was born in days of comparative peace: the Wars of the League were at an end, the accession of Henri IV. to the crown of France had silenced the clash of martial strife. Catholic and Calvinist no longer fought at the sword’s point. The Edict of Nantes, extending liberty of conscience and civil rights to the Protestants, had brought at least outward tranquillity. The act of Henri IV. in abjuring the Reformed faith and entering the Roman Communion had justified the hopes of all moderate minds. The Reformed party, with Henri’s lifelong friend and good geniusーthe minister Sullyーat its head, had seconded the wishes of the Catholics, and advised him to the change. The effect was magical, restoring tranquillity to distracted France. The ravaged fields and hillsides were once more clothed with growing grain and vines. “Husbandry and pastures,” said Sully, “were the true treasures of Peru, and the paps which nourished the kingdom.” Claude de la Tr?moille, a Huguenot by birth, had always concerned himself less about politics and polemics than fealty to his royal master. A certain sturdy, loyal singleness of mind seems to have been a distinguishing characteristic of his race. The Duke was a born soldier. From the moment he could wield a sword, it had been employed for France and the King. Henri had need of his valiant subject, and did not forget to reward his services. It was after his brave fighting at Fontaine-Fran?aise, 1595, that the King raised the territory of Thonars to the rank of a peerage; and three years later, Claude de la Tr?moille married the daughter of William the Silent.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Thomas Nast's Christmas Drawings for the Human Race【電子書籍】[ Anonymous ]

＜p＞This volume of Mr. Nast’s “Christmas Drawings” is the first collection of his works which has been published. The pictures are well called “Drawings for the Human Race,” because they appeal to the sympathy of no particular religious denomination or political party, but to the universal delight in the happiest of holidays, consecrated by the loftiest associations and endeared by the tenderest domestic traditions. Christmas is the holiday of all; but it is especially the Children’s day. The grotesque and airy fancies of childhood which cling about Santa Claus, as the good genius of Christmas, are reproduced upon these pages, in delightfully imaginative reality by the sympathetic touch of the artist, so that the book is an overflowing feast of true Christmas cheer. Mr. Nast’s hand, when dealing with current topics of the time, tips the flashing shafts of wit with morality; with relentless humor puts cunning pretence in the pillory; and exposes public wrong to the fatal merriment which laughs it away. But the artist’s hand is never happier than when, with the lambent light of the same humor, it irradiates the play of domestic affection, and makes the home circle gay. It is the bluff, honest Santa Claus of “The Night before Christmas;” the Santa Claus of the reindeer and the sleigh, alighting on the snowy roof, and descending the chimney with his wondrous pack of treasures; the Santa Claus of unsuspecting childhood, and the Mother Goose of undoubting infancy, to whom these pages introduce us. There is no child who cannot understand them, no parent who cannot enjoy them. Mr. Nast is fairly without a rival in this kind. His Santa Claus is old Father Christmas himself, and his welcome will be as general and as hearty as that which salutes the crammed and enchanted stocking on Christmas morning.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Mrs. Dalloway (Annotated)【電子書籍】[ Virginia Woolf ]

＜p＞"Mrs. Dalloway," a literary masterpiece by Virginia Woolf, is a captivating exploration of a single day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway, an elegant and sophisticated woman living in post-World War I London. Published in 1925, this novel is a tour de force of modernist literature, offering readers a profound and intimate glimpse into the intricacies of human thought, emotion, and society.＜br /＞ The novel unfolds over the course of a day as Clarissa prepares for an evening party she is hosting. However, this seemingly simple premise serves as a canvas for Woolf's groundbreaking narrative techniques. The story is not presented in a linear fashion but rather through a series of interconnected perspectives, capturing the inner lives of various characters. Woolf masterfully employs the stream-of-consciousness technique, allowing readers to delve into the minds of the characters and experience the ebb and flow of their thoughts in real-time.＜/p＞ ＜p＞At the heart of "Mrs. Dalloway" is Clarissa Dalloway herself, a character of depth and complexity. As she moves through the bustling streets of London, preparing for her soir?e, readers witness the subtle nuances of her reflections on life, love, and the passage of time. Woolf's portrayal of Clarissa is both empathetic and incisive, as she navigates the societal expectations placed upon her and grapples with the choices she has made.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Woolf's depiction of London becomes a character in its own right, a vibrant and ever-changing backdrop that mirrors the flux of emotions experienced by the novel's protagonists. The city pulses with life, and as Clarissa moves through its streets, readers encounter a vivid tapestry of urban existence, from the bustling shops to the quiet corners where moments of introspection unfold.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The supporting cast of characters adds layers of richness to the narrative. Septimus Warren Smith, a shell-shocked veteran, provides a poignant counterpoint to Clarissa's reflections, highlighting the profound impact of war on the human psyche. The intersections of these diverse perspectives create a mosaic of experiences, revealing the interconnectedness of lives and the shared humanity that transcends individual struggles.＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Mrs. Dalloway" is not merely a novel; it is a symphony of words, a kaleidoscope of emotions, and a profound meditation on the human condition. Woolf's prose is lyrical and evocative, immersing readers in a sensory experience that transcends the boundaries of conventional storytelling. Each sentence is a brushstroke, contributing to the larger canvas of the novel's themes ? the fleeting nature of time, the complexity of identity, and the delicate dance between the individual and society.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As readers accompany Clarissa on her journey, they become witnesses to the intricacies of existence, the beauty of fleeting moments, and the eternal quest for meaning. Woolf's narrative prowess invites readers to engage with the novel on a deeply personal level, prompting introspection and reflection on their own lives.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the tapestry of literary achievements, "Mrs. Dalloway" stands as a testament to Virginia Woolf's genius. It is a novel that transcends its time, offering a timeless exploration of the human experience. To read "Mrs. Dalloway" is to embark on a transformative journey through the corridors of consciousness, where the ordinary becomes extraordinary, and the mundane is elevated to the sublime. This is a novel that lingers in the mind, inviting readers to revisit its pages and discover new layers of meaning with each encounterーa true literary classic that continues to resonate and captivate generations of readers.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】A Grand Guy The Art & Life of Terry Southern【電子書籍】[ Lee Hill ]

＜p＞"When they're no longer surprised or astonished or engaged by what you say, the ball game is over. If they find it repulsive, or outlandish, or disgusting, that's all right, or if they love it, that's all right, but if they just shrug it off, it's time to retire."＜/p＞ ＜p＞-- Terry Southern＜/p＞ ＜p＞A Grand Guy＜/p＞ ＜p＞He was the hipster's hipster, the perfect icon of cool. A small-town Texan who disdained his "good ol' boy" roots, he bopped with the Beats, hobnobbed with Sartre and Camus, and called William Faulkner friend. He was considered one of the most creative and original players in the ＜em＞Paris Review Quality Lit Game,＜/em＞ yet his greatest literary success was a semi pornographic pulp novel. For decades, the crowd he ran with was composed of the most famous creative artists of the day. He wrote ＜em＞Dr. Strangelove＜/em＞ with Stanley Kubrick, ＜em＞Easy Rider＜/em＞ with Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper, and worked on Saturday Night Live with a younger, louder breed of sacred cow torpedoers. He's a face in the crowd on the cover of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (the guy in the sunglasses). Wherever the cultural action was, he was there, the life of every party -- Paris in the '50s, London in the swinging '60s, Greenwich Village, and Big Bad Hollywood. Brilliant, dynamic, irrepressible, he enjoyed remarkable success and then squandered it with almost superhuman excess. There was, and ever will be, only one Terry Southern.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In a biography as vibrant and colorful as the life it celebrates, Lee Hill masterfully explores the high and low times of the unique, incomparable Terry Southern, one of the most genuine talents of this or any other age. Illuminating, exhilarating, and sobering, it is an intimate portrait of an unequaled satirist and satyrist whose appetite for life was enormous -- and whose aim was sure and true as he took shots at consumerism, America's repressive political culture, upper-class amorality, and middle-class banality. But more than simply the story of one man, here is a wide-screen, Technicolor view of a century in the throes of profound cultural change -- frorn the first chilly blasts of the Cold War and McCarthyism to the Vietnam era and the Reagan years; from Miles and Kerouac to the Beatles, the Stones, and beyond. And always at the center of the whirlwind was Terry Southern -- outrageous, unpredictable, charming, erudite, and eternally cool; a brazen innovator and unappreciated genius; and most of all, A Grand Guy.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】THE DEAD (Modern Classics Series) A Profound Journey Through Regret and Relationships【電子書籍】[ James Joyce ]

＜p＞Set against the backdrop of an intricately detailed Dublin during the early 20th century, "The Dead" serves as the haunting climax of James Joyce's seminal collection, "Dubliners." Written in Joyce's signature stream-of-consciousness style, this short story transcends mere narrative to probe the depths of human consciousness and cultural stagnation. Employing richly symbolic imagery and masterful character development, Joyce explores themes of mortality, memory, and the complexities of Irish identity through a seemingly trivial party, culminating in a profound epiphany that reverberates beyond the confines of its setting. James Joyce, a central figure in modernist literature, expertly infused his works with autobiographical elements and a keen understanding of the socio-political landscape of Dublin. His experiences as an expatriate and a keen observer of human emotions shaped the profound themes of disconnection and enlightenment found in "The Dead." Joyce'??s literary innovations, influenced by his exposure to various cultures and a desire to depict the profound nuances of Irish life, make this story an essential reflection of his creative genius. For readers seeking a rich tapestry of emotional resonance and cultural insight, "The Dead" is an indispensable addition to any literary collection. It invites readers not only to experience the nuances of Joyce's masterful prose but also to engage deeply with the complexities of identity and the universal human experience, ensuring its timeless relevance and compelling allure.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Complete Short Stories of Katherine Mansfield (Literature Classics Series) Exploring Human Emotions in Modernist Short Fiction【電子書籍】[ Katherine Mansfield ]

＜p＞The Complete Short Stories of Katherine Mansfield encompasses the intricate tapestry of human emotion, relationships, and existential musings that reflect the complexity of early 20th-century life. Mansfield'??s literary style is distinguished by its modernist approach, characterized by vivid imagery, acute psychological insight, and a striking use of stream-of-consciousness techniques. The stories, ranging from the poignant 'The Garden Party' to the haunting 'Miss Brill,' reveal the subtleties of social conventions and the inner worlds of her characters, painted against the backdrop of post-war society grappling with change and uncertainty. Katherine Mansfield, a New Zealander who became a prominent figure in the Bloomsbury Group in London, was influenced by her own experiences of displacement and transformation. Her keen observations of daily life and profound empathy for the human condition stem from her varied travels and her tumultuous personal life, including her tumultuous relationships and struggles with health. Mansfield'??s commitment to exploring the lives of women and their societal roles is evident throughout her work, marking her significance in feminist literature and modernist writing. Readers seeking a deeply introspective and finely crafted exploration of life'??s ephemeral moments will find great reward in Mansfield'??s Complete Short Stories. This collection not only serves as a testament to her literary genius but also invites reflection on the universal themes of identity, love, and loss, making it an essential read for lovers of modernist literature.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

She is bitter, angry, and at times desperate, and yet by the time the chorus arrives her frustration has melted away. She decides to dance on her own, and in this way, she transforms her solitude into a more complex joy.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Taking inspiration from Robyn’s seminal track, emerging art critic and curator Simon Wu dances through the institutions of art, capitalism, and identity in these expertly researched, beautifully rendered essays. In “A Model Childhood” he catalogs the decades’ worth of clutter in his mother’s suburban garage and its meaning for himself and his family. In “For Everyone,” Wu explores the complicated sensation of the Telfar bag (often referred to as “the Brooklyn Birkin”) and asks whether fashion can truly be revolutionary in a capitalist systemーif something can truly be “for everyone” without undercutting someone else. Throughout, Wu centers the sticky vulnerability of living in a body in a world where history is mapped into every choice we make, every party drug we take, and every person we kiss.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Wu’s message is that to dance on your own is to move from critique into joy. To approach identity with the utmost sympathy for the kinds of belonging it might promise, and to look beyond it. For readers of Cathy Park Hong and Alexander Chee,＜em＞Dancing on My Own＜/em＞ is a deeply felt and ultimately triumphant anthem about the never-ending journey of discovering oneself, and introduces a brilliant new writer on the rise.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

There's no chance Wayne Merrick shares his fascination, and Hal's spent years hiding his intractable heart. But when Wayne arrives unexpectedly at his cabin, Hal aches to bare his heart after all.＜/p＞ ＜p＞WISHFUL THINKING: Kimiko has powerful feelings about leaving her barista job to focus on school. Or maybe she just has powerful feelings for coffee shop owner Nyla Prince. But Nyla isn't her boss anymore, and Kimiko's not sure how to navigate this unfamiliar terrain.＜/p＞ ＜p＞VERY CLOSE AND ALL AT ONCE: Noel Vane hates being the center of attention. He'd rather celebrate his fiftieth birthday with a quiet gathering at home, not a fancy gala arranged by his clueless but well-meaning best friend. Thank goodness for Jace DaSilva: his best friend's brother and Noel's gallant rescuer for the evening. But something is different between them tonight. The rules have changed, and Noel's just trying to keep up.＜/p＞ ＜p＞JUST ABOUT PERFECT: May Moretti screwed up. Even worse, after a month of clumsy radio silence, she still has no idea how to apologize for kissing Clio Garcia. Clio is older and wiser, a longtime family friend, and she clearly doesn't share May's hopeless infatuation. When their paths cross at a noisy party, there's no avoiding their unfinished business. But May has already made a perfect mess of things, and she has no idea where to start.＜/p＞ ＜p＞RUNNING HOT: Kurt Trench and his sister Lena make a good team, running the auto shop they inherited from their dad. Lately Shane Dolanーloyal customer and cheerful gearheadーhas been coming by the garage all the time. Shane isn't the first guy to hang around mooning over Lena.

But watching the two grow close is torture, and Kurt can't seem to rein in his jealous heart.＜/p＞ ＜p＞ANTICIPATION: Jason may be a lot of things (stubborn, arrogant, occasionally oblivious), but he's got no delusions about his hopeless and long-secret infatuation with his best friend.

Now he needs to sort through his own feelings, before a misunderstanding destroys the most important friendship of his life.＜/p＞ ＜p＞RIGHT HERE WITH ME: Amaia Campos has landed a full ride scholarship to her dream school. There's only one problem: college means moving across the country, two thousand miles from the best friend she's secretly in love with.

Faced with three days on the road, Jessa and Amaia have one last chance to get this right before everything changes forever.＜/p＞ ＜p＞PUT IT IN WRITING: A hopeless crush is nothing to be ashamed of, or so Lane tells himself.

So long as Jordan doesn't see the letter, everything should be fine.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞“An intriguing account of two of Nazi Germany’s top architects” and how their work prolonged the war for monthsーincludes hundreds of photos (＜em＞WWII History＜/em＞).＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞A Selection of the Military Book Club.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞While Nazi Germany’s temporary ascendancy owed much to military skill, the talent of its engineers not only buoyed the regime but allowed it to survive longer than would normally be expected. This unique work focusing on Fritz Todt and Albert Speer is based on many previously unpublished photographs and artwork from captured Nazi records.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Todt was the brilliant builder of the world’s first superhighway system, the Autobahn, and the architect of the German West Wall, the Siegfried Line, that predated the later Atlantic and East Walls. The builder of each of the wartime “F?hrer Headquarters,” as well as the submarine pens, Todt was killed in a still-mysterious airplane crash that may well have been a Nazi death plot, though he was given a state funeral by Hitler.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Todt was succeeded as German Minister of Armaments and War Production by the F?hrer’s longtime personal architect, Albert Speer, who was described by the Allies after the war as having prolonged the conflict by at least a year. Called a genius by Hitler, Speer designed and built the prewar Nuremberg Nazi Party Congress rally stands and buildings. More importantly, amid the constant rain of Allied bombs and the Soviet advances from the East, Speer managed to keep the German industrial machine running until the spring of 1945, though it was driven ever further underground. He also allocated resources to fortifications and counterattacks, like the V-missile installations, against both West and East, in attempts to stave off defeat. Convicted as a war criminal at Nuremberg, Speer served twenty years at Spandau Prison and remained a Nazi apologist who died in London in 1981 on the anniversary of the German invasion of Poland.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Together, Todt and Speer were the pillars that propped up the Third Reich through the vicissitudes of battlefield fortune. With over three hundred photographs, this is the first work that examines their role in history’s most terrible war.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
