Based on the true story of Alexander Selkirk, who survived alone for almost five years on an uninhabited island off the coast of Chile, "The Mysterious Island" is considered by many to be Jules Verne s masterpiece. Wide-eyed mid-nineteenth-century humanistic optimism in a breezy, blissfully readable translation by Stump ("Kirkus Reviews"), here is the enthralling tale of five men and a dog who land in a balloon on a faraway, fantastic island of bewildering goings-on and their struggle to survive as they uncover the island s secret."

The story of Galahad's quest for the Holy Grail is one of the three perennial myths of Western culture. In a story that combines the gospels of Jesus, medieval romances, the Knights Templar, and myths of King Arthur, the quest for the Grail has been a 2,000-year obsession that has fascinated everybody from writers and artists to historians and poets, from J.R.R. Tolkien to Dan Brown. Kneller's Happy Campers is a strange, dark but funny tale set in a world very much like our own but it's an afterlife populated by people who have killed themselves - many of them are young, and most of them bear the marks of their death...bullet wounds, broken necks...(those who have over-dosed are known as 'Juliets'). When Mordy, our hero, discovers that his girlfriend from his life before has also 'offed' herself, he sets out to find her, and so follows a strange adventure...Full of the weird and wonderful characters, and the slightly surreal twist of events that we've come to expect from Etgar The Mysterious Island free pdf Keret, this novella is full of humour and comic flashes, but it is also wistful, longing for a better world and perfect love.
