DOWNLOAD EBOOKNana opens in 1867, the year of the World Fair, when Paris, thronged by a cosmopolitan élite, was la Ville Lumière, a perfect victim for Zola's scathing denunciation of hypocrisy and fin-de-siècle moral corruption. The fate of Nana, the Helen of Troy of the Second Empire, and daughter of the laundress in L'Assommoir, reduced Flaubert to almost inarticulate gasps of admiration: `Chapter 14, unsurpassable! ... Yes! ... Christ Almighty! ... Incomparable ... Straight out of Babylon!' Boulevard society is presented with painstaking attention to detail, and Zola's documentation of the contemporary theatrical scene comes directly from his own experience - it was his own failure as a playwright which sent him back to novel-writing and Nana itself. This new translation is an accurate and stylish rendering of Zola's original, which was first published in 1880. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKUrsula knew that she needed to stay healthy enough to make the swim, build a den, and prepare for her cubs. She needed to store as much energy as possible, as it would be up to five months of fasting in the den, then nursing her young for a few months after. She sometimes envied the male polar bears. Their only concern was themselves. The Arctic adventure continues as Ursula the polar bear embarks on her journey to becoming a mother with the love and support of her brother Mato. We learn more about the Arctic region as we observe the adventures of her first born. This includes navigating the changing climate, hunting, human encounters, and making new friends. Even polar bears must determine his or her heart’s desires, which isn’t easy. As the bears face challenges and learn how to maintain good relationships, readers will simultaneously learn about the importance of perseverance and the value of family. Despite difficulties, polar bears show us how to follow our “true north” with the guidance of our hearts.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn eloquently told personal account of an era of enormous cultural and political change, which reveals Harry Belafonte as not only one of America’s greatest entertainers, but also one of our most profoundly influential activists. Harry Belafonte spent his childhood in both Harlem and Jamaica, where the toughness of the city and the resilient spirit of the Caribbean lifestyle instilled in him a tenacity to face the hurdles of life head-on and channel his anger into positive, life-affirming actions. He returned to New York City after serving in the Navy in World War II, and found his calling in the theater, before transitioning into a career as a singer and Hollywood leading man. During the 1960s civil rights movement, Belafonte became close friends with Martin Luther King, Jr., and used his celebrity as a platform for his activism in civil rights and countless other political and social causes. My Song tells the inspiring story of a startlingly original and powerful entertainer who has always engaged fiercely with the issues of his day.
