Krátky popis
Parties and Passions is a literary celebration. Love, betrayal,
sadness, humour, boredom and more are explored in this collection
of party stories by classic authors. Featuring tales from the
nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Parties and Passions
shows making merry doesn’t always go to plan.Joy and
disappointment, murder and mix-ups: there’s a party for everyone
here. Find stories of glamorous masked balls from Edgar Allan Poe
and Alexandre Dumas, ghostly wedding celebrations dreamed up by
Edith Nesbit and Washington Irving, and more occasions for dancing
and music in James Joyce’s ‘The Dead’ and Kate Chopin’s ‘Wiser Than
a God’. Nothing happens as expected in Nella Larsen’s ‘The Wrong
Man’ and F.Scott Fitzgerald’s ‘The Bridal Party’, and calm
gatherings descend into chaos in witty and ironic writing from Saki
and Nathaniel Hawthorne. With an international range of much-loved
writers from Akutagawa to Tolstoy, here is an eclectic collection
of literary parties to suit every mood. The Great Gatsby, Mrs
Dalloway and The Picture of Dorian Gray are also available in this
Macmillan Collector’s Library series of gorgeous paperbacks which
features the greatest parties and the wildest passions in
literature.
