Papillon (Harper Perennial Modern Classics)
A classic memoir of prison breaks and adventure – a bestselling phenomenon of the 1960s
Uncle Tom's Children
'Wright's unrelentingly bleak landscape was not merely that of the Deep South, or of Chicago, but that of the world, the human heart' James Baldwin Natural disasters, cold-blooded murders, political agitation - all haunt these dark, dramatic novellas set in an American Deep South still corrupted by its slave-owning past. But at the heart of each are the stories of the men, women and children whose resistance against oppression will come to define their lives. Originally published in 1938, Uncle Tom's Children was Richard Wright's first published work. It would establish his reputation as both a powerful storyteller and a fierce chronicler of racism, violence and oppression in America at the time.

Papillon
Hanya ada satu aturan: keheningan absolut. Tidak boleh ada interaksi, tidak boleh ada percakapan. Penjara tidak “melunakkan”, penjara bertugas menghancurkan—fisik dan mental. Meracuni benak, menindas harapan, hingga tidak ada lagi yang tersisa selain rasa takut, dan kematian menjadi pilihan yang lebih masuk akal. Kabur dari neraka berjeruji itu menjadi satu-satunya tujuan hidup Henri Charrière. Berkali-kali gagal, berkali-kali kembali tertangkap, tetap tak melunturkan tekadnya mendapatkan kebebasan. “Aku harus membuktikan bahwa aku bisa, bahwa aku adalah, dan akan menjadi manusia normal. Barangkali tidak lebih baik, tetapi yang jelas tidak lebih buruk daripada yang lain.” Kisah perjuangan hidup Henri dituangkan dalam buku sensasional ini, yang terjual lebih dari 1,5 juta kopi di Prancis sejak perilisannya.

Tropic of Cancer (Harper Perennial Modern Classics)
Miller’s groundbreaking first novel, banned in Britain for almost thirty years.
An American Dream
As Stephen Rojack, a decorated war hero and former congressman who murders his wife in a fashionable New York City high-rise, runs amok through the city in which he was once a privileged citizen, Mailer peels away the layers of our social norms to reveal a world of pure appetite and relentless cruelty. One part Nietzsche, one part de Sade, and one part Charlie Parker, An American Dream grabs the reader by the throat and refuses to let go.
Tropic of Capricorn (Harper Perennial Modern Classics)
The controversial, erotic and hilarious companion to the legendary Tropic of Cancer, in a smart new Harper Perennial Modern Classics edition.
