Awe and exhiliration--along with heartbreak and mordant wit--abound in Lolita, Nabokov's most famous and controversial novel, which tells the story of the aging Humbert Humbert's obsessive, devouring, and doomed passion for the nymphet Dolores Haze. Lolita is also the story of a hypercivilized European colliding with the cheerful barbarism of postwar America. Most of all, it is a meditation on love--love as outrage and hallucination, madness and transformation.

In the marshy mists of a village churchyard, atiny orphan boy named Pip is suddenly terrified by ashivering, limping convict on the run. Yearslater, a supremely arrogant young Pip boards the coachto London where, by the grace of a mysteriousbenefactor, he will join the ranks of the idle richand "become a gentleman." Finally, in theluminous mists of the village at evening, Pip theman meets Estella, his dazzingly beautifultormentor, in a ruined garden--and lays to rest all theheartaches and illusions that his "greatexpectations" have brought upon him. Dickens'sbiographer, Edgar H. Johnson, has said that--exceptfor the author's last-minute tampering with hisoriginal ending-- Great Expectations is "the most perfectly constructed andperfectly written of all Dickens's works." In JohnIrving's Introduction to this edition, thenovelist takes the view that Dickens's revised ending is"far more that mirror of the quality of trust inthe novel as a whole." Both versions of theending are printed here.

《朗文无师自通英语词典》(英语版)这部词典的2 000个关键词是依据拥有3亿词的朗文语料库选定的，是英语中使用频率最高的词。认识了这2 000个关键词，也就是认识了任何文本中单词总量的80％。为适应从初级阶段向中级阶段过渡这一特定的学习者群体，词典的编撰者可谓煞费苦心：词条栏目的编排和设计都是一目了然，不同的词类列为单独的词条，连各个义项都是自成段落。每个词条根据该词的特点分别设立了语法栏目介绍常用的结构，设立了短语和短语动词栏目介绍常见的成语和搭配，设立了用法栏目介绍同义词、反义词、常用句式等初学者应掌握的内容，并附有16页彩色插页和300多幅黑白插图。 　　以动词break为例。break占了整整两页(72至73页)，首先用释义、例证和插图介绍了cut、tear和break的区别，并参见smash和burst；然后不惜用大半页篇幅清楚地解释了break的3个重要义项并配有例句；接着又用整页的篇幅介绍了break a record、break the news、break someone's heart、break your promise、break loose和break free等短语，以及break down、break in、break into、break out、break through和break up等短语动词的用法。下一页(74页)却列出了27个词条，再下一页(75页)又用一整页介绍了bring的用法，体现了繁简有度的精神。 　　2 000个关键词对英语的运用能起重要的作用，但是还要有各个方面的词汇来帮助学习者应付各种场合的需要。该词典共收录35 000个单词、短语和例证，有效地扩大了学习者的使用范围。特别值得一提的是该词典的选词和释义既实用又跟上了时代的需要，microwave(微波炉)和mouse(鼠标)之类的词比比皆是，连插图也不例外。有一页彩色插图是hi-tech room(高科技的房间)，确实独具匠心。 　　贴近生活、内容活泼、实用性强是学生词典应该具备的一个特点，《朗文无师自通英语词典》做到了这一点。以bye一词为例，词条中标出亦作bye-bye，是口语用词，释义为goodbye，并使用一个例句“Bye Max! It was nice meeting you!”再以how这一词条的用法说明为例，通过例句比较了“How are you?”“How are you doing?”和“How do you do?”的用法区别，还清清楚楚地说明了如何回答。这样的一部词典已经远远超出了供读者查阅词义的功能，而成为了学习英语的好帮手。 　　为适应各种不同层次的学习者的需要，朗文出版社已经出版了各具特色的多种学生词典，名称也有创新之处，如activator dictionary、active study dictionary 和wordwise dictionary 等等，尤其是wordwise一词，更是给人耳目一新的感觉，仿佛读者用了这部词典以后，在词汇运用方面就会变得更加聪明。也许把Longman Wordwise Dictionary译为《朗文无师自通英语词典》倒也正符合它的原意吧!

The Brothers Grimm rediscovered a host of fairy tales, telling of princes and princesses in their castles, witches in their towers and forests, of giants and dwarfs, of fabulous animals and dark deeds.This selection of their folk tales was made and translated by Lucy Crane, and includes firm favourites such as Rapunzel, The Goose Girl, Sleeping Beauty, Hansel and Gretel and Snow White. It is illustrated throughout by Walter Crane's charming line drawings.

This edition contains Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking Glass. It is illustrated throughout by Sir John Tenniel, whose drawings for the books add so much to the enjoyment of them. Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the Mad Hatter, the Cheshire Cat, the Red Queen and the White Rabbit all make their appearances, and are now familiar figures in writing, conversation and idiom. So too, are Carroll's delightful verses such as The Walrus and the Carpenter and the inspired jargon of that masterly Wordsworthian parody, The Jabberwocky.

The Chronicles of Narnia, by C.S. Lewis, is one of the very few sets of books that should be read three times: in childhood, early adulthood, and late in life. In brief, four children travel repeatedly to a world in which they are far more than mere children and everything is far more than it seems. Richly told, populated with fascinating characters, perfectly realized in detail of world and pacing of plot, and profoundly allegorical, the story is infused throughout with the timeless issues of good and evil, faith and hope. This boxed set edition includes all seven volumes.--

Folklore, legends, myths and fairy tales have followed childhood through the ages, for every healthy youngster has a wholesome and instinctive love for stories fantastic, marvelous and manifestly unreal. The winged fairies of Grimm and Andersen have brought more happiness to childish hearts than all other human creations. Yet the old time fairy tale, having served for generations, may now be classed as "historical" in the children's library; for the time has come for a series of newer "wonder tales" in which the stereotyped genie, dwarf and fairy are eliminated, together with all the horrible and blood-curdling incidents devised by their authors to point a fearsome moral to each tale. Modern education includes morality; therefore the modern child seeks only entertainment in its wonder tales and gladly dispenses with all disagreeable incident.

A luminous, powerful novel that establishes Rachel Cusk as one of the finest writers in the English language A man and a woman are seated next to each other on a plane. They get to talking—about their destination, their careers, their families. Grievances are aired, family tragedies discussed, marriages and divorces analyzed. An intimacy is established as two strangers contrast their own fictions about their lives. Rachel Cusk’s Outline is a novel in ten conversations. Spare and stark, it follows a novelist teaching a course in creative writing during one oppressively hot summer in Athens. She leads her students in storytelling exercises. She meets other visiting writers for dinner and discourse. She goes swimming in the Ionian Sea with her neighbor from the plane. The people she encounters speak volubly about themselves: their fantasies, anxieties, pet theories, regrets, and longings. And through these disclosures, a portrait of the narrator is drawn by contrast, a portrait of a woman learning to face a great loss. Outline takes a hard look at the things that are hardest to speak about. It brilliantly captures conversations, investigates people’s motivations for storytelling, and questions their ability to ever do so honestly or unselfishly. In doing so it bares the deepest impulses behind the craft of fiction writing. This is Rachel Cusk’s finest work yet, and one of the most startling, brilliant, original novels of recent years.
