13 Little Love Stories

An exquisitely illustrated reference guide to the symbolism of birds in art, myth and folklore throughout the ages. From the goldfinch in Raphael's Madonna del Cardellino to the sacred ibis on an ancient Egyptian wall painting and the quetzal feathers of an Aztec headdress, birds have always held a special place in human culture and belief systems. For millennia, humanity has imbued them with symbolic significance and as a result they are a constant source of fascination. But where did such symbolism come from? Why do we view some birds as special, while others are seen as comical or simply as food? The Secret Language of Birds examines forty-two birds and the diverse roles they have played across civilizations. Written by renowned ornithologist Colin Rees, each individual profile offers a fresh perspective on our feathered friends, drawing from history, art, music, literature and folklore. These entries delve into the myriad ways people have worshipped, feared, hunted and consumed birds, utilized them as medicine, or relied on them to predict the weather. From well-known birds like the majestic crane, a symbol of longevity and harmony in Southeast Asia, to lesser-known species like the fierce cassowary, a bird integral to Dreamtime narratives among Australian Aboriginal groups, birds have played important roles in cultures around the world. Rees also details instances of bird persecution, and traces the derivation of bird names across Latin, English, Native American and African traditions, as well as those introduced by colonists worldwide. Organized by habitat and richly illustrated with ornithological paintings, artworks and a broad range of contextual material, The Secret Language of Birds reveals how certain species have been perceived and why they continue to captivate our imaginations.

The Secret Language of Birds

One of the Library of Congress's "Books That Shaped America"One of The Guardian's 100 Best Nonfiction Books"Walden...is arguably the most important work of literary nonfiction in the American canon."-New York TimesIn celebration of the 250th anniversary of the United States, HarperCollins is proud to present this library of American classics drawn from our storied catalog. Walden is a foundational transcendentalist treatise from Henry David Thoreau on self-reliance, simplicity, and how to escape the corruption and consumerism of modern society.I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately.On July 4, 1845, Henry David Thoreau began a two-year experiment: Living alone in a self-built hut on the edge of Walden Pond outside of Concord, Massachusetts, "to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived." Having observed and condemned changes in 19th century society -- increasing materialism, urbanism, and injustice from the state -- Thoreau endeavored to adopt a lifestyle in opposition to these modern vices. Walden is the account of how and why Thoreau lived during this time, and his conclusions about the natural world and humanity's place in it.Rich with detailed observations on New England's woods and the "bottomless" Walden pond, layered with analysis of the philosophers that inspired Thoreau's unusual project, and framed by the passage of the four seasons, Walden became a foundational text of the transcendentalist movement and is now accepted as one of the most important works of American literature, changing the course of Western psychology, political philosophy, and the tradition of nature writing.<ul><li>A BEAUTIFUL PACKAGE WITH FLAPS: Featuring French flaps and a unique vivid cover design, each book in the collection is published as a deluxe trade paperback that is a part of a stunning series look.</li><li>HARPER COLLINS AMERICAN CLASSICS: This series includes timeless novels, poetry, children's books, and groundbreaking nonfiction that has shaped American thought, literature, and identity across generations.</li><li>AMERICA'S PUBLISHER: Since its founding in 1817, no American publisher has been so entwined in the history of American letters. Our books enrich, challenge, and defined the American spirit.</li><li>AMERICA 250: The HarperCollins American Classics arrive in time for America's 250th anniversary celebrations.</li></ul>

Walden [American Classics Edition]

A revelatory and richly varied collection of Poland's greatest short stories, with a foreword by Nobel Prize-winner Olga Tokarczuk Witty, surprising and sparkling, this anthology is an essential exploration of Polish literature. Its thirty-nine superb stories run the length of the literal and imaginative creation of Poland, from 1918 (when Poland regained its independence after 123 years of colonization by the neighbouring empires) to the present.The stories include 'Miss Winczewska', by the acclaimed twentieth-century writer Maria Dabrowska (1889-1965), based on her experience of helping to establish a library for soldiers at the Citadel military base in Warsaw in the interwar period; and 'In the Shadow of Brooklyn' by Stanislaw Dygat (1914-1978), the comical tale of a young man's envy of what he imagines to be his father's success with women. At the contemporary end, it includes a story by Nobel Prize winner Olga Tokarczuk (1962), 'The Green Children', a historical story set in 1656, narrated by a Scottish doctor who, as the Polish king's physician, travels about the wilds of Poland and encounters two feral children. Curated by Antonia Lloyd-Jones, this anthology is a refreshing and glorious new collection of the best in Polish literature.

Penguin Modern Classics

'These stories are waves of fury, desire and delicious cruelty, always kissed by beauty and death' Mariana Enríquez A new selection of lyrically haunting 1960s short stories, from a Japanese literary icon A writer is seized by apocalyptic visions, a trio of beatniks dance to modern jazz in the ruins of an abandoned church, and a séance brings forth the reproachful spirits of the military dead.In Voices of the Fallen Heroes, stark autobiography contrasts with pure horror, and the tenderness of first love cedes to obsession, heartbreak and deathly beauty. In one tale, Mishima recounts the true story of the time a deranged fan broke into his home at dawn. Elsewhere, a beautiful youth achieves eternal life through violent murder, and an ill-matched couple seal their fate with a pack of cards, tangled in the web of time and unfulfilled desire.Available in English for the first time, and carefully selected by expert translators, these captivating stories are the perfect introduction to Mishima's work, on the 100th anniversary of his birth.
