Since its immediate success in 1813, Pride and Prejudice has remained one of the most popular novels in the English language. Jane Austen called this brilliant work «her own darling child» and its vivacious heroine, Elizabeth Bennet, «as delightful a creature as ever appeared in print.» The romantic clash between the opinionated Elizabeth and her proud beau, Mr. Darcy, is a splendid performance of civilized sparring. And Jane Austen's radiant wit sparkles as her characters dance a delicate quadrille of flirtation and intrigue, making this book the most superb comedy of manners of Regency England.
Among the writers who have approached nearest to the manner of the great master, we have no hesitation in placing Jane Austen. —Thomas Macaulay 'Pride and Prejudice' is the best novel in the language. —Anthony Trollope I used to think that men did everything better than women, but that was before I read Jane Austen. I don't think any man ever wrote better than Jane Austen. —Rex Stout Elizabeth Bennet has but to speak, and I am at her knees. —Robert Louis Stevenson Read again, and for the third time at least, Miss Austen's very finely written novel of 'Pride and Prejudice.' That young lady has a talent for describing the involvements and feelings and characters of ordinary life which is to me the most wonderful I ever met with. —Sir Walter Scott

Siddhartha is an allegorical novel by Hermann Hesse which deals with the spiritual journey of an Indian boy called Siddhartha during the time of the Buddha. The book was written in German, in a simple, yet powerful and lyrical style. It was first published in 1922, after Hesse had spent some time in India in the 1910s.
The story revolves around a young man who leaves his home and family on a quest for the Truth. Embarking on a journey that takes him from the austerities of renunciation to the profligacy of wealth. That leads him through the range of human experiences from hunger and want, to passion, pleasure, pain, greed, yearning, boredom, love, despair and hope. A journey that leads finally to the river, where he gains peace and eventually wisdom. This is the story of Siddhartha as told by Nobel Laureate Hermann Hesse in his most influential work.
Hermann Hesse:
Hermann Hesse (b. 1877) was a German-born Swiss poet and author, best known for writing the novels 'Steppenwolf', 'Siddhartha', and 'The Glass Bead Game'. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1946. His themes focus on man's struggle to break away from the rigid structures of civilization and follow his essential and inner spirit. For this, Hesse became a literary cult figure.

Año 1885. La familia Hortuño desaparece en extrañas circunstancias sin dejar rastro. Para los habitantes de «As Caldeiras» no hay explicación. Pero el tiempo pasa, y como tantas viejas historias, la misteriosa desaparición de la familia Hortuño acabará convirtiéndose en una leyenda más.
Año 1985. Lucas pensaba que había llegado la tranquilidad a su vida, pero nada más lejos. Solo y sin brújula para manejar el extraño poder que posee, su ansiado deseo es conocer si existen otros mundos paralelos y si es allí donde viven todos esos espíritus que se comunican con él.
El poderoso deseo de Lucas terminará haciéndose realidad y sin remedio, será absorbido por ese desconocido y tenebroso mundo paralelo atraído por un viejo y potente conjuro, haciéndole retroceder en el tiempo y obligándole a revivir la misma noche por toda la eternidad.
