Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This early work by Henry James was originally published in 1895 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. Henry James was born in New York City in 1843. One of thirteen children, James had an unorthodox early education, switching between schools, private tutors and private reading.. James published his first story, 'A Tragedy of Error', in the Continental Monthly in 1864, when he was twenty years old. In 1876, he emigrated to London, where he remained for the vast majority of the rest of his life, becoming a British citizen in 1915. From this point on, he was a hugely prolific author, eventually producing twenty novels and more than a hundred short stories and novellas, as well as literary criticism, plays and travelogues. Amongst James's most famous works are The Europeans (1878), Daisy Miller (1878), Washington Square (1880), The Bostonians (1886), and one of the most famous ghost stories of all time, The Turn of the Screw (1898). We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Book excerpt: Few writers have garnered such wide acclaim as Henry James. James is considered one of the literary giants of his age, an exquisite stylist who questioned the mores and stereotypes of the Gilded Age. Terminations is Henry James's most thematically unified collection of stories. Gathered in 1895, following his fascination with the supernatural in the 1880s, this elegant collection explores the sadness of loss, both physical and spiritual, and finds James at his introspective best, while providing a glimpse of how the author dealt with death in his own life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of stories which explore how, why and what happens when certain things end. What happens to the pastor who speaks ill of his dead wife? What does paradise turn into when it becomes something else? When do you know certain relationships are over? What does an obsession with youth produce? What does rudeness lead to? What happens when a Queen Bee misuses her power and stings? Can a person obsessed with perfectionism overcome it? Does your dog become a person to you, and how does that play out? Where does being selfish lead to? Who can a spoiled child turn into as an adult? When someone dies, do men and women grieve differently and does that matter in the end? While these questions are not necessarily interrelated, the common bond is that there are often consequences resulting from our behaviors, and the actions of others, which can lead to surprising, and not so surprising endings. Susan L. Pollet lives in New York City, and has been an attorney for over forty years, primarily in the area of family law. She has published over sixty articles on varied legal topics, including family and criminal law. She is also a published author and artist. In 2019, her first novel LESSONS IN SURVIVAL: ALL ABOUT AMOS was published by Adelaide Books. She created the collage for the book cover. Three of her short stories were published by Adelaide Literary Magazine in 2019, 2020 and 2021, respectively. In 2020, her second and third novels, THROUGH WALTER'S LENS and WOMEN IN CRISIS: STORIES FROM THE EDGE, were published by Adelaide Books. She painted the images for the book covers for those books as well. Her first children's book, entitled ON BECOMING JULIETTE ROSE, with her text and illustrations, was published by Adelaide in the fall of 2020. Her fourth novel, A GREY DIVORCE SUPPORT GROUP, was published by Adelaide Books in 2021. She created the book cover.

Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller From Neal Stephenson—who coined the term “metaverse” in his 1992 novel Snow Crash—comes a sweeping, prescient new thriller that transports readers to a near-future world in which the greenhouse effect has inexorably resulted in a whirling-dervish troposphere of superstorms, rising sea levels, global flooding, merciless heat waves, and virulent, deadly pandemics. “Stephenson is one of speculative fiction’s most meticulous architects. . . . Termination Shock manages to pull off a rare trick, at once wildly imaginative and grounded.” — New York Times Book Review One man—visionary billionaire restaurant chain magnate T. R. Schmidt, Ph.D.—has a Big Idea for reversing global warming, a master plan perhaps best described as “elemental.” But will it work? And just as important, what are the consequences for the planet and all of humanity should it be applied? Ranging from the Texas heartland to the Dutch royal palace in the Hague, from the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas to the sunbaked Chihuahuan Desert, Termination Shock brings together a disparate group of characters from different cultures and continents who grapple with the real-life repercussions of global warming. Ultimately, it asks the question: Might the cure be worse than the disease? Epic in scope while heartbreakingly human in perspective, Termination Shock sounds a clarion alarm, ponders potential solutions and dire risks, and wraps it all together in an exhilarating, witty, mind-expanding speculative adventure.

Whether plumbing family ties, the end of a marriage, or death itself, she never lets go of the witty, the ironic, and perhaps most notably, the awkward. Despite the title, the resolution in these stories isn't always tragic, but it's often uncomfortable, unexpected, or just plain strange. Character digressions, bad decisions, and misconceptions abound.
