Book excerpt: I'm thirteen today, and I wish I could turn time all the way back to my twelfth birthday...before things began to change. A young girl's dream takes her further than she ever imagined in Sally Wahl Constain's epic debut novel, The Keys to Fanny. An insightful glimpse into a time when women were denied even the most basic education, its strong characters will inspire audiences long after the last page is finished. When her mother dies, thirteen-year-old Fanny is unceremoniously placed in charge of the household until her father remarries. When he does, however, it is to a woman whose scheming results in Fanny's engagement to her cruel step-cousin. Devastated at the thought of her upcoming marriage, Fanny's Aunt Freda offers her secret passage to America. Fanny now faces the most important choice of her life: flee the only home she's ever known and risk never seeing her family again, or marry a boy she despises. Forbidden to learn how to read and write in her village, a Jewish shtetl near Kiev, Fanny's dream of earning an education seems to lie in escaping to America. But as she embarks on a journey of a lifetime, Fanny wonders: Will her dream ever really come true?

Book excerpt: Fanny Hensel (1805-1847) was an extraordinary musician and astute observer of European culture. Previously she was known mainly as the granddaughter of philosopher Moses Mendelssohn and the sister of composer Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, yet Hensel is now recognized as the leading woman composer of the nineteenth century. She produced well over four hundred compositions and excelled in short, lyrical piano pieces and songs of epigrammatic intensity, but the expressive range of her art also accommodated challenging virtuoso piano and chamber works, orchestral music, and cantatas written in imitation of J.S. Bach. Her gender and position in society restricted her from opportunities afforded her brother, however, who himself quickly rose to an international career of the first rank. Hensel's own sphere of influence revolved around her Berlin residence, where she directed concerts that attracted such celebrities as Franz Liszt, Clara Schumann, Clara Novello, and her brother Felix. In this semi-public space, shared with exclusive audiences drawn from the elite of Berlin society, Hensel found her own voice as pianist, conductor and composer. For much of her life, she composed for her own pleasure, and her brother ranked her songs among the very best examples of the genre. Felix silently incorporated several of the songs into his own early publications, while a few other songs were published anonymously. Hensel began releasing her works under her own name in 1847, only to die of a stroke as the first reviews of her music began to appear. Tragically, the vast majority of her music was forgotten for a century and a half before its recent rediscovery. Renowned Mendelssohn scholar R. Larry Todd now offers a compelling, full account of Hensel's life and music, her extraordinary relationship with her brother, her position in one of Berlin's most eminent families, and her courageous struggle to define her own public voice as a composer [Publisher description].

Book excerpt: Purchase one of 1st World Library's Classic Books and help support our free internet library of downloadable eBooks. 1st World Library-Literary Society is a non-profit educational organization. Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - Fanny's First Play, being but a potboiler, needs no preface. But its lesson is not, I am sorry to say, unneeded. Mere morality, or the substitution of custom for conscience was once accounted a shameful and cynical thing: people talked of right and wrong, of honor and dishonor, of sin and grace, of salvation and damnation, not of morality and immorality. The word morality, if we met it in the Bible, would surprise us as much as the word telephone or motor car. Nowadays we do not seem to know that there is any other test of conduct except morality; and the result is that the young had better have their souls awakened by disgrace, capture by the police, and a month's hard labor, than drift along from their cradles to their graves doing what other people do for no other reason than that other people do it, and knowing nothing of good and evil, of courage and cowardice, or indeed anything but how to keep hunger and concupiscence and fashionable dressing within the bounds of good taste except when their excesses can be concealed. Is it any wonder that I am driven to offer to young people in our suburbs the desperate advice: Do something that will get you into trouble? But please do not suppose that I defend a state of things which makes such advice the best that can be given under the circumstances, or that I do not know how difficult it is to find out a way of getting into trouble that will combine loss of respectability with integrity of self-respect and reasonable consideration for other peoples' feelings and interests on every point except their dread of losing their own respectability. But when there's a will there's a way. I hate to see dead people walking about: it is unnatural. And our respectable middle class people are all as dead as mutton. Out of the mouth of Mrs Knox I have delivered on them the judgment of her God.

Book excerpt: A free luxury wedding gives two strangers a second chance at love in this charming contemporary romance novel in the Charton Minster series. Cat Aston thought she hit the jackpot when she won a fairytale wedding in a luxury hotel. But now that her finance has run out on her, her dreams of wedded bliss have turned into a nightmare. But still, no woman in her right mind would turn down a free wedding of a lifetime. Now she just needs to find a groom . . . Adam Lawley was left devastated when his girlfriend turned down his heartfelt proposal and he’s vowed to never love again. But something keeps pulling him toward Cat. They’ve both been burned by love—so why can’t they stop thinking about each other? It might be too good to be true, or it just might be their second chance for true love—complete with a happily ever after. “In this wildly passionate, touching and sometimes funny story, James portrays two brokenhearted souls who connect and magically find a way to love again. Most of the book has an offbeat, almost fairy-tale feel, but it’s uplifting and satisfying. James spins her story with hope in mind, and her characters help us believe in castles in the air without equivocation.” —RT Book Reviews
