Poor boy Tom Canty admires the royals who seem so far out of his reach in sixteenth-century English society, but when he meets young Prince Edward, he realizes they are very much alike. They share the same birthday and the same face. And when Edward dons Tom's rags, and Tom slips into the royal cloak, no one can tell them apart. The wrong prince will soon be crowned king, unless Edward can produce the Great Seal of England in time to prove his right to the throne.

What if you found out that you’re not who you believe you are? What if I told you that you’re not who your family thinks you are? What if you’re not the person that people around you see and hear … What if the human being is, in reality, the fusing element of two worlds – physical and spiritual? What if, in the human body, you can find both physical and spiritual, where the spiritual manifests physically. What if what we call the mind, as we know it, is actually the gate through which the two worlds meet, cross, and exchange information? What You are, as a spiritual being, can’t be described in any human language. What You are can’t be seen by any human eyes. What You say canâ€...

In exploring everyday life and its intersections with death, this enduring collection of stories offers a naturalistic depiction of the working class in early twentieth-century Dublin. Joyce masterfully portrays frustrations and aborted desires to escape the mundane; transformative epiphanies both great and small; and the restraints, loneliness, violence, and contemplations of lives lived. Though Joyce's subjects were considered as taboo as his language was unsavory, Dubliners was a milestone work praised for its unflinching realism. It remains a transcendent and relatable portrait of the perils--and acceptance--of the human condition. AmazonClassics brings you timeless works from the masters of storytelling.

In Coketown, England, wealthy retiree Thomas Gradgrind has founded a school based on his belief that life should be factual--not fanciful. Among his pupils are his children, Thomas and Louisa, who are raised on his teachings of rational self-interest and grow into loveless, despairing adults. As he bears witness to his children's suffering, Gradgrind is forced to confront the dangers of his dispassionate, utilitarian philosophy. Published serially in 1854 and packed with page-turning cliff-hangers, Hard Times explores representatives of English society--the disappearing aristocracy, the growing middle class, indigent laborers, and nomadic circus people--as they navigate the ways of Victorian England during the Industrial Revolution.
