This is a volume of poems by Amy Lowell, published in 1914.'Against the multitudinous array of daily verse our times produce this volume utters itself with a range and brilliancy wholly remarkable. I cannot see that Miss Lowell's use of unrhymed 'vers libre' has been surpassed in English. Read 'The Captured Goddess', 'Music', and 'The Precinct. Rochester', a piece of mastercraft in this kind. A wealth of subtleties and sympathies, gorgeously wrought, full of macabre effects (as many of the poems are) and brilliantly worked out. The things of splendor she has made she will hardly outdo in their kind.' (Josephine Preston Peabody, 'The Boston Herald', 1916)

Geoffrey Fenton, narrator of this story, is one of those unlucky persons who do cross this ship's path, and who even gets captured by it. When he finds himself on the famous Death Ship, the adventure of his life begins, including deadly storms, pirates, and a very particular beautiful damsel in distress. - Summary by Carolin More information: https://librivox.org/the-death-ship-by-william-clark-russell/ LibriVox - free public domain audiobooks (https://librivox.org/)

Hard Times (version 2), Locked Out and On Strike by Charles DICKENS (1812 - 1870) Genre(s): Published 1800 -1900 Read by: Phil Benson in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 16 - 15 July 1854 - Chapters 27-28 00:30:33 - 17 - 22 July 1854 - Chapters 29-30 01:04:33 - 18 - 29 July 1854 - Chapters 31-32 01:46:36 - 19 - 5 August 1854 - Chapters 33-34 02:29:26 - 20 - 12 August 1854 - Chapters 35-36 03:23:30 - 21 - Locked Out 03:43:02 - 22 - On Strike Hard Times was Dickens's shortest novel and the only one to be set in the industrial north of England. A fast moving story with a typical cast of larger than life characters, the novel is a vehicle for a humanist critique of both utilitarian education ('Teach these boys and girls nothing but facts', says Mr. Gradgrind in the opening paragraph) and the mutual antagonism between capital and the trade union. A humanist education system, it turns out, is Dickens's solution to the class struggle. Hard Times is set in the fictional Coketown and was partly inspired by a visit to Preston during the factory lockout that brought the town's industry to a standstill in 1853. This version is read as it appeared in 20 issues of Dickens's weekly Household Words from April to August 1854. It is followed by two earlier articles - Locked Out and On Strike - that describe Dickens' visit to Preston and do much to clarify his thinking on education and class conflict. - Summary by Phil Benson More information: http://librivox.org/hard-times-by-charles-dickens-2/ LibriVox - free public domain audiobooks (https://librivox.org/)
