But Sophocles' play...wow, it's totally different! The characters are so ...             Those Who Save Us Jenna Blum Harvest Books, 2005 Wonderful...more than a WWII novel This novel is one of the best I have ever had the pleasure of reading.

The author's ...             The Little Prince Harvest Books, 2000 A Time Tested Classic If I was stranded on a desert island and could only take one book with me, it would be this one.

Morgenstern's Classic Tale of True Love and High Adventure William Goldman Harvest Books, 2007 Real Fantasy I was afraid to read this book and avoided it for many years. I so dearly love the movie and I just didn't want to be disappointed either way. If the book was better, as is usually the case, then my movie experience would be tarnished. If the movie was better then I'd ...             The Four Loves C.S. Lewis Harvest Books, 1971 All loves in Love Within this work, Mr. Lewis is quick to point out the inherent difficulty with regard to the concept of love facing individuals whose native tongue is English.
