A Novel

Although beloved for her children's classic Little Women, Louisa May Alcott had a passion for sensational literature that she only dared issue anonymously or under a pseudonym. Her favorite among these adult fictions, A Modern Mephistopheles was first published in 1877 and has been rediscovered and published under Alcott's name.

This chilling tale of lust, deception, and greed beings on a midwinter night as Felix Canaris, a despairing writer about to take his own life, is saved by a knock at the door. His mysterious visitor, Jasper Helwyze, promises the poor student fame and fortune in return for his complete devotion. The embittered Helwyze then plots to corrupt his overly ambitious protégé by artfully manipulating the innocent and beautiful Gladys. When Helwyze decides that he wants Gladys for himself, Felix must defend the adoring young woman from the corrosive influence of his diabolical patron.

A novel of psychological complexity that touches on controversial subjects such as sexuality and drug use, A Modern Mephistopheles is a penetrating and powerful study of human evil and its appalling consequences.

"I'd gladly sell my soul to Satan for a year of freedom," cries impetuous Rosamond Vivian to her callous grandfather. Then, one stormy night, a brooding stranger appears in her remote island home, ready to take Rosamond to her word. Spellbound by the mysterious Philip Tempest, Rosamond is seduced with promises of love and freedom, then spirited away on Tempest's sumptuous yacht. But she soon finds herself trapped in a web of intrigue, cruelty, and deceit. Desperate to escape, she flees to Italy, France, and Germany, from Parisian garret to mental asylum, from convent to chateau, as Tempest stalks every step of the fiery beauty who has become his obsession.

A story of dark love and passionate obsession that was considered "too sensational" to be published in the authors lifetime, A Long Fatal Love Chase was written for magazine serialization in 1866, two years before the publication of Little Women. Buried among Louisa May Alcott's papers for more than a century, its publication is a literary landmark—a novel that is bold, timeless, and mesmerizing."

Life at Plumfield with Jo's Boys: Large Print

"Please, sir, is this Plumfield?" asked a ragged boy of the man who opened the great gateat which the omnibus left him."Yes. Who sent you?""Mr. Laurence. I have got a letter for the lady.""All right; go up to the house, and give it to her; she'll see to you, little chap."The man spoke pleasantly, and the boy went on, feeling much cheered by the words.Through the soft spring rain that fell on sprouting grass and budding trees, Nat saw a largesquare house before him, a hospitable-looking house, with an old-fashioned porch, widesteps, and lights shining in many windows. Neither curtains nor shutters hid the cheerfulglimmer; and, pausing a moment before he rang, Nat saw many little shadows dancing onthe walls, heard the pleasant hum of young voices, and felt that it was hardly possible thatthe light and warmth and comfort within could be for a homeless "little chap" like him."I hope the lady will see to me," he thought, and gave a timid rap with the great bronzeknocker, which was a jovial griffin's head.A rosy-faced servant-maid opened the door, and smiled as she took the letter which hesilently offered. She seemed used to receiving strange boys, for she pointed to a seat in thehall, and said, with a nod: "Sit there and drip on the mat a bit, while I take this in to missis.

A rediscovered Louisa May Alcott literary treasure is set to follow in the footsteps of The Quiet Little Woman. From Little Womento The Inheritance, Louisa May Alcott has charmed generations of fans for more than 150 years. Her unrivaled legacy includes this rediscovered gem that begins... "According to her father's wish, Kate was to live for a while with the families of each of her four uncles before she decided with which she would make her home. All were anxious to have her, one because of her money, another because her great-grandfather had been a lord, a third hoped to secure her hand for the son of a close friend, while the fourth and best family loved her for herself alone. "They were worthy people, as the world goes-busy, ambitious, and prosperous; and every one, old and young, was fond of bright, pretty, generous Kate. Each family was anxious to keep her, a little jealous of the rest, and very eager to know which she would choose. "But Kate surprised them all by saying." Kate's Choice has been updated for the modern reader by Stephen W. Hines, a writer and researcher who has discovered lost classics like Little House in the Ozarks by Laura Ingalls Wilder.
