Shirley, E-bok
Robert Moore, a manufacturer in Yorkshire whose business is struggling, has introduced new labor-saving machinery to his cotton mill, resulting in many workers losing their jobs. One night, a group of enraged workers, spurred on by their hungry families, storms in and destroys a new shipment of machines. The next morning, Caroline Helstone, Robert's orphaned young cousin, arrives as usual at the estate for her French lesson with Robert's sister Hortense. The great joy she finds in these visits is Robert, but he is unaware of this and is likely to find it even more difficult to realize from now on. He, on the other hand, sets his sights on the young and beautiful Shirley Keeldar, heiress to a vast fortune. Charlotte Brontë's Shirley was the follow-up to the successful novel Jane Eyre [1847]. With its social themes, it faced more difficulty in convincing contemporary critics, but today, Shirley is considered one of the English novel classics. It is a passionate yet unsentimental tale of collisions between classes, genders, and generations. CHARLOTTE BRONTË [1816-1855], born in Thornton in West Yorkshire, was an English novelist, the eldest of the famous Brontë sisters. Several of her novels rank among the classics of English literature, with Jane Eyre as the most famous.

Shirley is an 1849 social novel by the English novelist Charlotte Brontë. It was Brontë's second published novel after Jane Eyre (originally published under Brontë's pseudonym Currer Bell).The novel is set in Yorkshire in the period 1811–12, during the industrial depression resulting from the Napoleonic Wars and the War of 1812. The novel is set against a backdrop of the Luddite uprisings in the Yorkshire textile industry.Shirley deals with themes of industrial unrest and the role of women in society. Unlike Jane Eyre, which is written from the main character's first-person perspective, Shirley is written in the third person and lacks the emotional immediacy of her first novel, and reviewers found it less shocking.The novel's popularity led to Shirley's becoming a woman's name. The title character was given the name that her father had intended to give a son. Before the publication of the novel, Shirley was an uncommon - but distinctly male - name and would have been an unusual name for a woman. Today it is regarded as a distinctly female name and an uncommon male name.While Brontë was writing Shirley, three of her siblings died. Her brother Branwell died in September 1848, and her sister Emily fell ill and died in December. Brontë resumed writing, but then her only remaining sibling, her sister Anne, became ill and died in May 1849.Charlotte Brontë (1816-1855) was an English novelist and poet, the eldest of the three Brontë sisters who survived into adulthood, and whose novels have become classics of English literature.Charlotte wrote her first novel, The Professor, which did not appear until after her death (it was first published in 1857), and began Jane Eyre, which, appearing in 1847, took the public by storm. It was followed by Shirley in 1849, and Villette in 1853.The novels of Charlotte created a strong impression from start, their strength and originality have retained for them a high place in English fiction which is likely to prove permanent.Charlotte became pregnant soon after her marriage in 1854 but her health declined rapidly. Charlotte died with her unborn child on 31 March 1855, aged 38.

Shirley
Svensk nyöversättning för första gången sedan 1854Efter succén med Jane Eyre [1847] förnyade Charlotte Brontë sitt författarskap med en roman som speglar livet i norra England under den tidiga industrialismen. I Shirley möter vi fabriksägaren Robert Moore, vars maskiner attackeras av rasande arbetare. I centrum står Caroline Helstone, Roberts föräldralösa, unga kusin, och Shirley Keeldar, mäktig godsägare. De båda kvinnorna lever i skilda världar, men mellan dem växer vänskapen. Arbetarnas villkor länkas samman med kvinnors villkor, i vad som kallats Brontës mest feministiska roman. Men detta är också en bok om kärlek och längtan efter kärlek. Charlotte Brontë har en unik blick för själens lönngångar och Shirley är en mörk berättelse om förälskelse och makt, om frihet och kamp. Här i ny svensk översättning - den första sedan 1854 - av Anna-Karin Malmström Ehrling och Per Ove Ehrling. CHARLOTTE BRONTË [1816-1855], som under större delen av sitt liv bodde på Haworths prästgård, nära Bradford i Yorkshire, var en engelsk romanförfattare och poet, den äldsta av de berömda systrarna Brontë. Romanen Shirley [1849] skrevs under en svår period, då Charlotte på kort tid förlorade såväl sin bror som systrarna Emily och Anne.

Prince Otto, E-bok
Likened to Alexandre Dumas’ adventures and romances, this novel follows Otto and Serafina’s relationship as they navigate a web of political intrigues, murder conspiracies, and deceitful aquaintances. A romantic novel about responsibility, living, and one’s sense of place, Robert Louis Stevenson’s stunning prose makes this unmissable for fans of both romance and adventure alike. Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) was a Scottish author. He wrote novels, poems, essays, and travel books. As a result of his poor health, he spent the majority of his life abroad, where he became a vital part of important literary circles. His scathing critiques of the world around him have captivated audiences for centuries, with his most notable works being ‘Treasure Island’ (1883) and ‘The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde’ (1886). His ability to generate suspense is perfect for fans of James Patterson looking for an introduction to classic adventure novels.
