Classic Stories from the Age of Decadence

Penguin Modern Classics – Crime & Espionage

Mickey is bored and angry with her life as a housewife in suburban Detroit, trapped with her dreary, golf-obsessed husband. Then she is kidnapped by a deeply unimpressive criminal gang who want to trade her for a huge ransom from her-as it turns out-crooked husband. But what if she doesn't really mind being kidnapped?

Isma is free. After years spent raising her twin siblings in the wake of their mother's death, she is finally studying in America, resuming a dream long deferred. But she can't stop worrying about Aneeka, her beautiful, headstrong sister back in London - or their brother, Parvaiz, who's disappeared in pursuit of his own dream: to prove himself to the dark legacy of the jihadist father he never knew.

Then Eamonn enters the sisters' lives. Handsome and privileged, he inhabits a London worlds away from theirs. As the son of a powerful British Muslim politician, Eamonn has his own birthright to live up to - or defy. Is he to be a chance at love? The means of Parvaiz's salvation? Two families' fates are inextricably, devastatingly entwined in this searing novel that asks: what sacrifices will we make in the name of love?

A contemporary reimagining of Sophocles' Antigone, Home Fire is an urgent, fiercely compelling story of loyalties torn apart when love and politics collide - confirming Kamila Shamsie as a master storyteller of our times.

Alice's Adventures In Wonderland

A translation of the twelfth book of The Mah­­abharata, an epic tale of history and kingship, reinforced with legends, romances, and metaphysical, theological, and ethical teachings written in Sanskrit 1700 or more years ago. A remarkable composition of 100,000 couplets, The Mah­­abharata is the second-longest poem in world literature. In this volume, James L. Fitzgerald completes his translation of the twelfth of The Mah­­abharata's eighteen books, the vast Shanti&nbsp;Parvan, or The Book of Peace. Covering a wide range of ancient Indian intellectual history, The Book of Peace was intended to serve as a comprehensive, brahmin-inspired basis for living a Good Life in a Good Society in a Good Polity and is one of the most important and complex books of the poem. Fitzgerald's previous contribution to the Chicago edition of The Mah­­abharata was volume 7, which opened with Book 11, The Book of the Women, which movingly portrayed the grief of the wives, mothers, and sisters of the many warriors slain in the epic's central war narrative. The crises of grief presented in The Book of the Women give particular poignancy and depth to the shanti, or pacification, that is the theme of Book 12, The Book of Peace. Volume 7 included the first half of The Book of Peace, and volume 8 now completes it with the second half, which is focused particularly on the ways people can escape the cycle of rebirth and realize sublime beatitude by way of saving knowledge or yoga meditation or devotion to God Vi??u-Naraya?a. Supported by an extensive introduction and notes, this publication will be greeted as a major event in Sanskrit studies.

Book 12, The Book of Peace, Part 2

The Mahabharata, Volume 8

Originally published as a series of sketches in Harper's Bazaar magazine, Loos' debut novel was an instant success that popularised the tropes of the 'dumb blonde' and the 'gold-digger'; we follow Lorelei, a young blonde flapper, through a series of diary entries as she and her friend Dorothy take an extravagant trip across Europe. Lorelei involves herself with various men, seeing them only as entertainment and the means to increasing her jewellery collection - whereas Dorothy is more romantically inclined (much to Lorelei's chagrin). The way that their exploits are told in Lorelei's distinctive narrative voice and the imaginative writing techniques used by Loos form the heart of the novel, coming together to create a timeless comedic tone that will connect with contemporary and modern readers alike.
