This classic Greek drama depicts the fate of the children of Oedipus who die fighting against each other. Creon, their uncle, assumes leadership and issues an edict that the rebel Polynices be left unburied and unmourned.

| Summary/Abstract |
A drama about the cult of Dionysus, the vine god, which involved orgiastic and frenzied nature rites.
The king of Thebes, Pentheus, imprisons Dionysus when the latter, in disguise, attempts to propagate his cult among the women of Thebes. This thwarting of a God's will leads to catastrophe. The play is a probing into man's psychological makeup and understanding of himself.

| Summary/Abstract |
At a party thrown by Lady Windermere, the story’s title-character, Lord Arthur Savile, is introduced to Mr Septimus R. Podgers, a cheiromantist or palm-reader. Podgers reads his palm and recoils when he sees what’s ‘written’ there, and only reluctantly reveals the truth to Lord Arthur: that he is destined to be a murderer. Lord Arthur wants to marry, but believes he cannot in all good conscience do so with his impending fate hanging over him. He decides that the only thing for it is to commit the murder first, before marrying his sweetheart, Sybil Merton

| Summary/Abstract |
The story of Rama is so powerful and so well-loved that many writers have told it again and again over the centuries. And there have been several tellings, for children, of the great Indian epic. But none that adhere faithfully to the oldest version of Rama’s story: Valmiki’s Ramayana, composed in Sanskrit about two and a half thousand years ago.
Arshia Sattar is the best-known translator of Valmiki’s Ramayana. Her translation has never been out of print since it was first published in 1996 and has been reprinted countless times. Now she distils thirty years of working with the great classic into an elegant, beautifully told edition, which is sumptuously illustrated.
