Flower A: Truffle Trouble

Truffle Trouble

Alma Junior Classics

Only unabridged translation available When the Sesemann family and their friend Doctor Classen, who were so kind to Heidi during her stay in Frankfurt, visit her and her grandfather at their home in the Swiss Alps, young Klara Sesemann, an invalid, chooses to stay on for a while alone in the hope that the healthy mountain lifestyle and the expert nursing of Heidi's grandfather will do her good. Unfortunately, Heidi's devoted attention to Klara excites the jealousy of the goatherd Peter, who senses that the stranger has supplanted him in his only friend's affections. A fit of rage prompts Peter to commit an act intended to end Klara's stay on the mountain, which sets into motion a series of events that will produce a positive, unhoped for outcome. Beloved of generations of young people, Johanna Spyri's sequel to Heidi: Lessons at Home and Abroad is another cornerstone of children's literature and every bit as beguiling and heart-warming as the first volume. It is here presented in a brand-new, unabridged translation by Peter James Bowman, once again beautifully illustrated by Susan Hellard. This edition contains extra material for young readers, including a section on 'Other Classic Stories of Orphans', a glossary and a test-yourself quiz.

Heidi: Putting Her Lessons to Good Use

'El día en que lo iban a matar, Santiago Nasar se levantó a las 5.30 de la mañana para esperar el buque en que llegaba el obispo.' Acaso sea Crónica de una muerte anunciada la obra más 'realista' de Gabriel García Márquez, pues se basa en un hecho histórico acontecido en la tierra natal del escritor. Cuando empieza la novela, ya se sabe que los hermanos Vicario van a matar a Santiago Nasar -de hecho, ya le han matado- para vengar el honor ultrajado de su hermana µngela, pero el relato termina precisamente en el momento en que Santiago Nasar muere. El tiempo cíclico, tan utilizado por García Márquez en sus obras, reaparece aquí minuciosamente descompuesto en cada uno de sus momentos, reconstruido prolija y exactamente por el narrador, que va dando cuenta de lo que sucedió mucho tiempo atrás, que avanza y retrocede en su relato y hasta llega mucho tiempo después para contar el destino de los supervivientes. La acción es, a un tiempo, colectiva y personal, clara y ambigua, y atrapa al lector desde un principio, aunque este conozca el desenlace de la trama. La dialéctica entre mito y realidad se ve potenciada aquí, una vez más, por una prosa tan cargada de fascinación que la eleva hasta las fronteras de la leyenda. Julio Cortázar dijo... 'Un genio.'

Un hombre regresa al pueblo donde ocurrió un asesinato desconcertante 27 años atrás, con la determinación de descubrir la verdad. Todos parecen estar de acuerdo en que Bayardo San Román, sólo unas horas después de su matrimonio con la bella Angela Vicario, la devuelve por deshonrada a la casa paterna. La atribulada familia fuerza a la novia a revelar el nombre de su primer amante; y los hermanos gemelos de ella anuncian su intención de matar a Santiago Nasar por haber deshonrado a su hermana. Sin embargo, si todos sabían que se iba a cometer un asesinato, ¿por qué nadie trató de impedirlo? Cuanto más se sabe de este asunto, menos se comprende, y cuando la historia al fin se precipita a su inesperada conclusión, una sociedad entera —no sólo un par de asesinos— está siendo enjuiciada. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A man returns to the town where a baffling murder took place 27 years earlier, determined to get to the bottom of the story. Just hours after marrying the beautiful Angela Vicario, everyone agrees, Bayardo San Roman returned his bride in disgrace to her parents. Her distraught family forced her to name her first lover; and her twin brothers announced their intention to murder Santiago Nasar for dishonoring their sister. Yet if everyone knew the murder was going to happen, why did no one intervene to stop it? The more that is learned, the less is understood, and as the story races to its inexplicable conclusion, an entire society--not just a pair of murderers—is put on trial.

Penguin Clothbound Classics

Gaskell’s timeless exploration of class, social justice, and love in all its forms, now a Penguin Clothbound Classic designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith Elizabeth Gaskell's compassionate, richly dramatic novel features one of the most original and fully-rounded female characters in Victorian fiction, Margaret Hale. It shows how, forced to move from the country to an industrial northern town, she develops a passionate sense of social justice, and a turbulent relationship with mill-owner John Thornton. North and South depicts a young woman discovering herself, in a nuanced portrayal of what divides people, and what brings them together. Penguin Classics is the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world, representing a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

As relevant now as when it was first published, this classic tale weaves a love story with the clash between the pursuit of profit and humanitarian ideals "[An] admirable story ... full of character and power" —Charles Dickens When her father leaves the Church in a crisis of conscience, Margaret Hale is uprooted from her comfortable home in Hampshire to move with her family to the North of England. Initially repulsed by the ugliness of her new surroundings in the industrial town of Milton, Margaret becomes aware of the poverty and suffering of local mill workers and develops a passionate sense of social justice. This is intensified by her tempestuous relationship with the mill-owner and self-made man John Thornton, as their fierce opposition over his treatment of his employees masks a deeper attraction. In North and South Gaskell skilfully fused individual feeling with social concern, and in Margaret Hale created one of the most original heroines of Victorian literature. In her introduction Patricia Ingham examines Elizabeth Gaskell's treatment of geographical, economic and class differences, and the male and female roles portrayed in the novel. This edition also includes further reading, notes and a useful glossary.

Passionately Transforming Management

The allure of crime is undeniable. From news headlines to true crime podcasts, crime has a way of entrapping our interest and imagination. An exploration of the lessons that managers can learn from organised crime, Passionately Transforming Management with Crime addresses how criminal enterprises engage with leadership and innovation, and how popular representations of crime affect our perceptions of management and organisation. Alf Rehn's enticing text explores crime from a number of angles - historical, cultural and economic - to better understand the link between business and crime, and the lessons that can be shared. It looks to crime both as a source of inspiration for entrepreneurship and organisation, and as an influence on management through iconographies, legends and storytelling. The book also debunks common misconceptions about the business of crime, and touches on the dangers of romanticising criminal endeavours. Following an examination of criminals in history and fiction, Passionately Transforming Management with Crime progresses to discuss why we are attracted to crime, how crime mirrors legitimate businesses, and what we can learn from the criminal underworld, both real and fictional. Passionately Transforming Management with Crime offers a compelling and novel approach to management that provides valuable insights for practicing managers, professionals, advanced postgraduate students and scholars in Management, Critical Management Studies and Organisation Studies. Witty and engaging, this text is a fascinating read for those interested in discovering the management lessons to be learnt from Jean Genet, Biggie Smalls and Grand Theft Auto.

The MIT Press Essential Knowledge series

A clear, nontechnical guide to why cryptocurrency exists, how it reshapes trust and money, and why it matters beyond speculation. How do we build trust in a digital world where institutions, platforms, and intermediaries increasingly mediate money, identity, and ownership? In Cryptocurrency and Blockchain, Marco Di Maggio offers an essential guide to cryptocurrencies and blockchains—two of the most misunderstood technological and economic transformations of the digital age. Rather than focusing on price charts, hype cycles, or programming details, Di Maggio explains why these technologies exist, what problems they attempt to solve, and why they matter for people who are not crypto insiders. Using plain language, analogies, and real-world examples, the book explains how cryptocurrencies reshape core concepts of money, property, markets, and governance. The author explores topics such as how and why Bitcoin is used as a financial fallback, what stablecoins are and how they have become critical infrastructure for global payments, and how NFTs introduced a new notion of ownership and identity on the internet. Written for curious readers, journalists, students, policymakers, and professionals, Cryptocurrency provides a conceptual framework for understanding crypto as infrastructure, not ideology—helping readers see past the noise to grasp the deeper forces reshaping money, trust, and coordination in the digital economy.
