| "The Ghost Stories of Edith Wharton" |
| "Selected & Introduced by David Stuart Davies Traumatised by ghost stories in her youth Pulitzer Prize winning author Edith Wharton (1862 -1937) channelled her fear and obsession into creating a series of spine-tingling tales filled with spirits beyond the grave and other supernatural phenomena While claiming not to believe in ghosts paradoxically she did confess that she was frightened of them Wharton imbues this potent irrational and imaginative fear into her ghostly fiction to great effect In this unique collection of finely wrought tales Wharton demonstrates her mastery of the ghost story genre Amongst the many supernatural treats within these pages you will encounter a married farmer bewitched by a dead girl; a ghostly bell which saves a woman's reputation; the weird spectral eyes which terrorise the midnight hours of an elderly aesthete; the haunted man who receives letters from his dead wife; and the frightening power of a doppelganger which foreshadows a terrible tragedy Compelling rich and strange the ghost stories of Edith Wharton like vintage wine have matured and grown more potent with the passing years"

| "A Room of One's Own (1929) has become a classic feminist essay and perhaps Virginia Woolf's best known work; The Voyage Out (1915) is highly significant as her first novel Both focus on the place of women within the power structures of modern society The essay lays bare the woman artist's struggle for a voice since throughout history she has been denied the social and economic independence assumed by men Woolf's prescription is clear if a woman is to find creative expression equal to a man's she must have an independent income and a room of her own This is both an acute analysis and a spirited rallying cry; it remains surprisingly resonant and relevant in the 21st century The novel explores these issues more personally through the character of Rachel Vinrace a young woman whose voyage out' to South America opens up powerful encounters with her fellow-travellers men and women As she begins to understand her place in the world she finds the happiness of love but also sees its brute power Woolf has a sharp eye for the comedy of English manners in a foreign milieu; but the final undertow of the novel is tragic as in some of her finest writing she calls up the essential isolation of the human spirit"
