Librivox: Pickwick Papers, The by Dickens, CharlesJoin Now to Follow
The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, better known as The Pickwick Papers, is the first novel by Charles Dickens. Written for publication as a serial, The Pickwick Papers consists of a sequence of loosely-related adventures. Its main literary value and appeal is formed by its numerous unforgettable heroes. Each personage in The Pickwick Papers (just as in many other Dickens' novels) is drawn comically, often with exaggerated features of character. (Wikipedia)

Librivox: Bible (LSG, 1910) 22: Le cantique des cantiques by Louis Segond BibleJoin Now to Follow
Ce vingt-deuxième livre de la Bible, traduite par Louis Segond, au XIXe siècle et publiée au début du siècle suivant se compose d'un dialogue entre la plus belle des femmes et son bien-aimé . «Mets-moi comme un sceau sur ton coeur, Comme un sceau sur ton bras ; Car l'amour est fort comme la mort, La jalousie est inflexible comme le séjour des morts ; Ses ardeurs sont des ardeurs de feu, Une flamme de l'Éternel. Les grandes eaux ne peuvent éteindre l'amour, Et les fleuves ne le submergeraient pas ; Quand un homme offrirait tous les biens de sa maison contre l'amour, Il ne s'attirerait que le mépris. » (Introduction de Ezwa)

Librivox: Angel of Terror, The by Wallace, EdgarJoin Now to Follow
When this was written, literary traditions still decreed beauty to be the outward sign of inner saintliness, whereas evil characters tended to be “ugly as sin.” Jean Briggerland defies these expectations by being every bit as angelically beautiful as she is sociopathic. So lovely that all around her are blinded to her guilt no matter how blatant her crimes, only Jack Glover, best friend and lawyer of her most recent victim, is aware of her true nature. Can he stop her crime spree and bring her to justice before she murders her way to wealth and happiness? He really, really shouldn’t count on it. Despite the book’s outrageously implausible plot, it nevertheless manages to keep one in suspense from first page to last. Advisory: Antiquated attitudes and occasional profanity will add unintentional humor to the charms of the story for some listeners but might offend others. (Summary by Lee Elliot)

Librivox: Englishwoman's Love-Letters, An by AnonymousJoin Now to Follow
It need hardly be said that the woman by whom these letter were written had no thought that they would be read by anyone but the person to whom they were addressed. But a request, conveyed under circumstances which the writer herself would have regarded as all-commanding, urges that they should now be given to the world; and, so far as is possible with a due regard to the claims of privacy, what is here printed presents the letters as they were first written in their complete form and sequence.

Librivox: Europe Revised by Cobb, Irvin S.Join Now to Follow
Irwin Cobb's humorous Europe Revised is a travelogue and comedy almost in the style of Mark Twain. The dedication says it best, "To My Small Daughter Who bade me shed a tear at the tomb of Napoleon, which I was very glad to do, because when I got there my feet certainly were hurting me."
