Автор: Carroll Lewis Название: Alice`s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass - With Sixteen Full-Page Illustrations by Blanche McManus ISBN: 1473335027 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781473335028 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 56390.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland', and its sequel 'Through the Looking Glass' are two classics of the children's literature genre - written by the English author Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (1832 - 1898). Better known by his pseudonym, Lewis Caroll, the author masterfully tells the story of a little girl named Alice, who falls through a rabbit hole into a fantasy world populated by very peculiar creatures. This story is followed with her re-entry (about six months later) into this fantastical universe, this time by climbing through a mirror into the world that she can see beyond it. This book is beautifully illustrated by Blanche McManus (1869 - 1935), an American writer and artist, famed for her delicate watercolours and sinuous lines. She brings Caroll's unique form of 'literary nonsense' to life, superbly bringing about a balance between the written word and the artists imagination. Pook Press celebrates the great 'Golden Age of llustration' in children's literature - a period of unparalleled excellence in book illustration. We publish rare and vintage Golden Age illustrated books, in high-quality colour editions, so that the masterful artwork and story-telling can continue to delight.

Описание: "One of the best fictional detectives conjured up in years," Library Journal BLANCHE ON THE LAM Barbara Neely's Smart, Sassy and Groundbreaking Crime Novel WINNER OF THE AGATHA, ANTHONY & MACAVITY AWARDS Blanche White is a plump, feisty, middle-aged African-American housekeeper working for the genteel rich in North Carolina. But when an employer stiffs her, and her checks bounce, she goes on the lam, hiding out as a maid for a wealthy family at their summer home. That plan goes awry when there's a murder and Blanche becomes the prime suspect. So she's forced to use her savvy, her sharp wit, and her old-girl network of domestic workers to discover the truth and save her own skin. Along the way, she lays bare the quirks of southern society with humor, irony, and a biting commentary that makes her one of the most memorable and original characters ever to appear in mystery fiction. "Blanche not only solves the crime, but exhibits familiar foibles and strengths, believes in kitchen-table wisdom, and possesses a wicked sense of humor," Ms. Magazine "A quirky mystery debut that pits Blanche against a Faulknerian cast of oddballs who may be trying to kill each other off to claim a southern fortune," Kirkus Reviews "Endlessly entertaining," Publisher's Weekly "The uproarious Blanche White, the Southern housekeeper who knows her own mind, opened doors to the nuances of black life for readers and writers alike. Barbara Neely is a trailblazer," Naomi Hirahara, Edgar Award-winning author
