Jane Eyre / Charlotte Bronte

[S.l.] : Harper Collins, 2010

Abstract: HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. 'I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being with an independent will.' Bronte's infamous Gothic novel tells the story of orphan Jane, a child of unfortunate circumstances. Raised and treated badly by her aunt and cousins and eventually sent away to a cruel boarding school, it is not until Jane becomes a governess at Thornfield that she finds happiness. Meek, measured, but determined, Jane soon falls in love with her brooding and stormy master, Mr Rochester, but it is not long before strange and unnerving events occur in the house and Jane is forced to leave Thornfield to pursue her future.

Frankenstein / Mary Shelley

London : Collins classics, 2010

Abstract: HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. 'It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open!' Written when Mary Shelley was only nineteen-years old, this chilling tale of a young scientist's desire to create life still resonates today. Victor Frankenstein's monster is stitched together from the stolen limbs of the dead, and the result is a grotesque being who, rejected by his maker, sets out on a journey to reek his revenge. In the most famous gothic horror story ever told, Shelley confronts the limitations of science, the nature of human cruelty and the pathway to forgiveness with rich language and evocative imagery.

The hound of the Baskervilles / Arthur Conan Doyle ; adaptation and teaching material by Scott Wheeldon

Milano : Hoepli, 2010

Abstract: In questo romanzo, Sherlock Holmes e il dottor Watson devono risolvere il mistero della morte di sir Charles Baskerville che secondo James Mortimer, suo medico e amico, è legata alla maledizione che aleggia sulla famiglia Baskerville. Un'orribile creatura, con le fattezze di gigantesco cane, si aggirerebbe nella brughiera desolata intorno alla villa, perseguitando gli eredi maschi di sir Hugo Baskerville, responsabile due secoli addietro della morte di una ragazza e per questo ucciso da un enorme cane diabolico. Naturalmente Sherlock Holmes non può credere a una simile versione dei fatti e, indizio dopo indizio, svela l'identità del vero assassino. Le note lessicali a piè di pagina e gli esercizi a fianco del testo ne agevolano la comprensione, mentre le attività didattiche tra una lettura e l'altra rinforzano le conoscenze linguistiche dello studente. A completamento del volume interessanti dossier (CLIL) e il CD-Audio.

Juliet, Naked / Nick Hornby

[S.l.] : Penguin books, 2009

Abstract: Annie and Duncan are a mid-thirties couple who have reached a fork in the road, realising their shared interest in the reclusive musician Tucker Crowe (in Duncan's case, an obsession rather than an interest) is not enough to hold them together any more. When Annie hates Tucker's 'new release', a terrible demo of his most famous album, it's the last straw - Duncan cheats on her and she promptly throws him out. Via an internet discussion forum, Annie's harsh opinion reaches Tucker himself, who couldn't agree more. He and Annie start an unlikely correspondence which teaches them both something about moving on from years of wasted time. Nick Hornby's compelling new novel, four years after A Long Way Down, is about the nature of creativity and obsession, and how two lonely people can gradually find each other.
