Devatenáctiletý Robinson Crusoe není spokojen se svým klidným, ale nudným životem v Anglii. Tak rád by se plavil po moři a poznával svět. Jeho touha po dobrodružství ho přiměje bez rozloučení s rodiči opustit rodnou zemi a vydat se do cizích krajů. Během následujících pěti let poznává mnoho míst a lidí, ale především sám sebe. Zažije několik nebezpečných situací na moři i na pevnině, a tak si začíná pohrávat s myšlenkou, že se usadí. Ale jeho dobrodružná povaha ho ještě jednou přiměje nasednout na loď. Tentokrát má však ztroskotání lodi katastrofální následky a Robinson se jako jediný z posádky zachrání na zdánlivě opuštěném ostrově. Je možné, aby v takové situaci člověk sám přežil? Podaří se mu ostrov opustit, nebo na něm bude muset zůstat?

One of the BBC's '100 Novels That Shaped Our World' The Penguin English Library Edition of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley 'Never did I behold a vision so horrible as his face, of such loathsome, yet appalling hideousness' A twisted, upside-down creation myth, Mary Shelley's chilling Gothic tale lays bare the dark side of science, and the horror within us all. It tells the story of Victor Frankenstein, who plunders graveyards to create a new being from the bodies of the dead - but whose botched creature causes nothing but murder and destruction. Written after a nightmare when its author was only eighteen, Frankenstein gave birth to the modern science fiction novel. The Penguin English Library - 100 editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century and the very first novels to the beginning of the First World War.

Referring to "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, " H. L. Mencken noted that his discovery of this classic American novel was "the most stupendous event of my whole life"; Ernest Hemingway declared that "all modern American literature stems from this one book," while T. S. Eliot called Huck "one of the permanent symbolic figures of fiction, not unworthy to take a place with Ulysses, Faust, Don Quixote, Don Juan, Hamlet." The novel's preeminence derives from its wonderfully imaginative re-creation of boyhood adventures along the mighty Mississippi River, its inspired characterization, the author's remarkable ear for dialogue, and the book's understated development of serious underlying themes: "natural" man versus "civilized" society, the evils of slavery, the innate value and dignity of human beings, the stultifying effects of convention, and other topics. But most of all, "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is a wonderful story filled with high adventure and unforgettable characters (including the great river itself) that no one who has read it will ever forget.
