Hours Of Sun And Shade (1861)

Hours of Sun and Shade is a novel written by Percy Vernon Gordon De Montgomery and published in 1861. The book is set in the mid-19th century and follows the story of a young woman named Edith who lives in a small English village. Edith is engaged to a wealthy landowner named Sir Arthur, but she is torn between her love for him and her desire for a more independent and fulfilling life. As the story progresses, Edith becomes increasingly disillusioned with her life and her relationship with Sir Arthur. She begins to question the expectations placed on her as a woman and the limitations that society places on her. At the same time, Edith meets a young artist named Paul who shares her passion for art and literature. They develop a close friendship that eventually turns into a romantic relationship. However, their relationship is complicated by the social and cultural norms of the time, as well as Sir Arthur's jealousy and possessiveness. Hours of Sun and Shade is a poignant exploration of love, independence, and the struggle for self-determination in a society that often restricts women's choices. It is a beautifully written novel that captures the spirit of the Victorian era and the complex emotions of its characters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Dziedējosā kaķene

Celesse, the healer cat, is a highly respected member of the neighborhood. As the mistress's favorite cat, she spends lazy days in the warmth of the house. One snowy night a mother hare rushes in, desperate for help. Reluctantly, the healer cat travels with her through a nighttime snowstorm and biting cold winds. In a dark forest, Celesse comes face-to-face with a scary surprise and is forced to gather her powers for the first time in a while. --- Savu dotību dēļ dziedējosā kaķene Dāsniņa ir augstu novērtēts savas apkaimes loceklis. Būdama saimnieces mīlule, viņa savas laiskās dienas izbauda nama siltumā. Taču tad namā, lūgdama palīdzību, iebrāzas zaķu māte. Viņas neatlaidība salauz kaķenes pretestību, un zaķene kaķi ved cauri naksnīgajai vētrai un stindzinosajam salam. Tumsajā mezā Dāsniņa sastopas aci pret aci ar baisu pārsteigumu, un viņai nākas sakopot visas savas spējas. Kolīdz nakti ilgais un veiksmīgais ceļojums ir noslēdzies, uzlec saule, sasildīdama ne vien sniegoto mezu, bet arī dziedējosās kaķenes sirdi.
