Here are sixteen tales from one of the great works of the Middle Ages. Ten young people have fled for a while, the terrible effects of the Black Death in Florence and, in an idyllic setting, tell a series of brilliant stories, by turns humorous, bawdy, tragic and provocative. This celebration of physical and sexual vitality is Boccaccio's answer to the sublime other-worldliness of Dante's Divine Comedy.

Tristram Shandy is an ironic masterpiece, a work of extraordinary originality, wit and learning. It is a work of considerable philosophical complexity but at the same time, it is just a piece of film-flam: it has been called the longest shaggy dog story.

June 1942, a small book was published: “L’Etranger” (The stranger). The unknown author was a 28 years old who was to soon modify the history of both literature and philosophy of th 20th century, expressing the absurdity of the human destiny. This man is Albert CAMUS, who was awarded the Nobel prize in 1957. On April 7, 8 and 9 1954, Albert CAMUS recorded the integrality of his most famous work “L’Etranger” for the National Radio. This 3-CD set offers a restored edition of this reading by Albert Camus himself (in French) of “L’Etranger”. Includes a 16 pages booklet written by Roger Grenier, who Camus helped to become a journalist for “Combat”, and who wrote a intellectual biography on Albert Camus.

It could be argued that Fanny Hill: or the Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure is the greatest erotic classic in English literature. It is certainly, for the eighteenth century, the most explicit. Published between 1748&;1749 (in two parts) it led to the arrest of it's author John Cleland and publisher.
