Norse Mythology | James Shepherd

Many of the stories from Norse mythology have been handed down through the centuries in the oral tradition and most derive from Iceland. This thrilling collection of tales will transport readers to the realms of Asgard, where the gods such as Thor, Odin and Freya live, and Midgard, the home of humankind, that together form the cosmological tree of Yggdrasil. Filled with dramatic stories of dark deeds, cunning and war as well as love, compassion and humour, the Norse mythologies have influenced countless generations of writers and artists in various media - from Marvel Comics' Avengers to Manga creations and J. R. R. Tolkien's The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, as well as the renowned novel and TV series Game of Thrones and the composer Richard Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen.

Ulysses | James Joyce

'Everybody knows now that Ulysses is the greatest novel of the century' Anthony Burgess, ObserverFollowing the events of one single day in Dublin, the 16th June 1904, and what happens to the characters Stephen Dedalus, Leopold Bloom and his wife Molly, Ulysses is a monument to the human condition. It has survived censorship, controversy and legal action, and even been deemed blasphemous, but remains an undisputed modernist classic: ceaselessly inventive, garrulous, funny, sorrowful, vulgar, lyrical and ultimately redemptive. It confirms Joyce's belief that literature 'is the eternal affirmation of the spirit of man'.'The most important expression which the present age has found; it is a book to which we are all indebted, and from which none of us can escape' T. S. Eliot'Intoxicating ... a towering work, in its word play surpassing even Shakespeare' Guardian
