Sense and Sensibility
₦23,000.00This edition of Jane Austen’s classic novel features a suede-like custom cover with beautiful metallic foiling and a ribbon marker.
A brilliant novel describing two parallel love stories, Sense and Sensibility remains a time-honored classic in English literature. The story follows the Dashwood sisters unique experiences with love and heartbreak in their search for lifelong happiness. Jane Austen cleverly explores the many social restraints placed on women during the nineteenth century where wealth and status dictate marriage.
Emma
₦23,000.00This edition of Jane Austen’s classic novel features a suede-like custom cover with beautiful metallic foiling and a ribbon marker.
Follow the story of Emma Woodhouse, a beautiful, wealthy and single twenty-year old who is convinced she will never marry. Overly confident in her matchmaking abilities, Emma commits to finding an eligible suitor for her new friend, Harriet Smith, which leads to a series of romantic misunderstandings. With lively characters and dramatic twists, Emma is a brilliant novel that cleverly explores the constraints of marriage and social status during the early nineteenth century.
Anna Karenina
₦23,000.00This edition of Leo Tolstoy’s classic novel features a suede-like custom cover with beautiful metallic foiling and a ribbon marker.
Considered the second greatest novel ever written (second to another title from this author, a little something called War And Peace) Leo Tolstoy explores the vista of contemporary life in Russia. Anna is a sophisticated and passionate woman who leaves her old life, and old husband Karenin, to pursue Count Vronsky in order to fulfill her ardent nature. Tragic consequences ensue in Anna Karenina, a psychological novel that refuses to judge the characters and their actions but merely serves as an observer.
Lessons In Chemistry
₦23,000.00Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.
But like science, life is unpredictable. Which is why a few years later Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother, but the reluctant star of America’s most beloved cooking show Supper at Six. Elizabeth’s unusual approach to cooking (“combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride”) proves revolutionary. But as her following grows, not everyone is happy. Because as it turns out, Elizabeth Zott isn’t just teaching women to cook. She’s daring them to change the status quo.
Laugh-out-loud funny, shrewdly observant, and studded with a dazzling cast of supporting characters, Lessons in Chemistry is as original and vibrant as its protagonist.
