I found this book to be a terribly interesting, spellbinding page turner. I could not put it down. Every page had a new turn and the book was well worth the time spent and money spent on it. This is a reccommended book that everyone should have the oppertunity to enjoy. The book is so great that I don't want to give even one word of it away. so, in conclusion, read the book!

This book is a incredibly good help when you want help to understand Thomas Mann's "Death in Venice". It gives you summeries of the book, analysis, a presentation of the caracters and it suggests essay topics. The book helps you to prepare for classdiscussions because of it's answers and questions. Ask yourself the questions in the book and find out if you got the understanding of the text correctly. Then you can read the answers. You can't skip reading Mann's novella and "take the easy way out." The novella contains so much details and you do have to read it just to get the wonderful feeling and context. But when you have done that, MAX notes' book gives you so much more to add to the understanding of the story. This book gives me great help and inspiration for the college essay I'm about to write. This is the best investment in literature I've done for years!

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is a great story of virtues, trust and honor. The story goes like this the knights of the round table were sitting around when the green knight appeared and decided to test one of the knights to see if they are as noble as they are said to be. He asks to see if any one is interested to strike him with a weapon of their choice and to receive to same blow in one year and one day's time. Sir Gawain says he will take to the challenge, choosing and axe and deciding to chop the green knights head off, he doesn't relies that this is a test, and proceeds with he's weapon through the green knights neck. Sir Gawain thinks now that he has killed him that he will not have to receive the same blow in a year and one day's time. But the Green Knight picks up his head and wonders off. Nearly a year passes and Sir Gawain decides to head off. Along the way he encounters fights with great beasts, cold and wet weather, but little does he know he continues to be tested along the way. Then one day he stumbles along a castle and is invited in by the owner. Then one day he stumbles across a castle and is invited in by the owner. He accepts his offer and goes inside he stays there and is made to feel very welcome. Tomorrow he will spend the day in the host wife company and he make a deal with the host that the host will exchange for what he receive with what Sir Gawain receives. So he stays the night. The next morning soon after the host and his men have left the castle, to his surprise the host wife enters the room he is staying in and gives him a kiss. At the end of the day the host and his men return home with what they have caught and exchange the catch for the kiss. But I will leave it there because it is such a good book that you should read it your self. The information from the time that this was written was given from these sorts of stories because they are written in such detail the original of this story is in a museum in England. It was read by using a mirror to read the other side because the ink was still wet when the book was closed.

The Awakening by Kate Chopin addresses the needs of a woman in a time when a woman was not allowed to have needs. Masterfully written and classically timeless, a true read for any reader. This novella can enrapture the inexperienced but wise reader or the immature but well-read.

Herberth Czermak has put together a somewhat different Cliffs Notes volume for looking at "The Metamorphosis" and other stories by Franz Kafka. Certainly it would a bit much to devote an entire little yellow book with the black stripes to the story of Gregor Samsa, although clearly it is Kafka's most important work. But the biggest difference is that this is a Cliffs Notes where the emphasis is on commentary to the exclusion of summaries of the works being discussed. You will not find a synopsis of these stories and you certainly will not understand the first-rate commentary and analysis if you have not read the stories in the first place. What you will find is detailed analysis that will help you understanding the writings of Franz Kafka. You have been warned.

Czermak's notes on the Life and Background do more than get into Kafka's biography, they set up the author's focus on "angst" and put "The Metamorphosis" in the context of his body of writing. In his Commentaries on Kafka's stories Czermak continues to cross-reference other works, which certainly suggests all sorts of comparison/contrast possibilities for class discussion. The Kafka stories examined here are: "The Judgment," "A Hunger Artist," "A Country Doctor," "In the Penal Colony," "The Hunter Gracchus," "The Burrow," "Investigations of a Dog," "A Report to an Academy," "The Great Wall of China," and "Josephine the Singer, or the Mouse Folk." After the Commentaries on the Stories, Czermak provides four short essays that cut these works, "Understanding Kafka," "Kafka's Jewish Influence," "Kafka--A 'Religious' Writer?" and "Kafka and Existentialism." This last essay is the most relevant because most students find existentialism to be an interesting thing to look at and "The Metamorphosis" is as good a place as any to begin exploring that major literary movement.

It is a talent to be able to write a book so easy to understand yet so descriptive and classy. It describes everything about Michelangelo you'd ever want to know and kids will be able to get an idea and appreciation for his work too. If your looking for something not so fancy dancy, this is for you.

"The Course of true love did never run smoothe." Shakespeare's tale of four Athenian lovers and a fairy named Puck is a very funny play. I loved this story, it is a good love comedy that I would recomend to anyone who is a Shakespeare fan or a loves a good book. I would have to say that this book is for teens all the way to adults. Some of the content may not be OK for children

This field guide to mineral deposits is one of the best I have used. It is easy to use and it provides clear and easy identification of minerals. With over 500 color photos, the book is arranged by color streak and includes the degree of hardness, density, streak description, color, chemical formula, cleavage, crystal form, tenacity and crystal formation. Other features include a list of similar minerals and where the mineral occurs, i.e. in pegmatites. The author also gives advice on where to find minerals and the kind of equipment needed to retrieve them. Also useful is the information on how to organize a collection. The paperback format lends itself to tossing the book into a backpack for easy reference when mineral "hunting" in the field. This is a "must have" for any adventurer's personal library.
