The award-winning bestseller that became one of the most talked about and memorable novels of the decade, Room is "utterly gripping...a heart-stopping novel" (San Francisco Chronicle). Held captive for years in a small shed, a woman and her precocious young son finally gain their freedom, and the boy experiences the outside world for the first time. To five-year-old-Jack, Room is the world. It's where he was born, it's where he and his Ma eat and sleep and play and learn. At night, his Ma shuts him safely in the wardrobe, where he is meant to be asleep when Old Nick visits. Room is home to Jack, but to Ma it's the prison where she has been held for seven years. Through her fierce love for her son, she has created a life for him in this eleven-by-eleven-foot space. But with Jack's curiosity building alongside her own desperation, she knows that Room cannot contain either much longer. Room is a tale at once shocking, riveting, exhilarating — a story of unconquerable love in harrowing circumstances, and of the diamond-hard bond between a mother and her child.

The Sit Room brings you inside the secretive Situation Room of the White House, the most important deliberative room in the world, during the early 1990s when the author was one of the policymakers who framed the Clinton Administration's policy towards the bloody Balkans War. Drawing upon newly declassified documents and his own notes, David Scheffer, who later became America's first Ambassador-at-Large for War Crimes Issues, weaves the true story of how policy options were debated in the Sit Room among the highest national security officials. The road to a final peace deal in late 1995 came at the high price of the murderous siege of Sarajevo and ethnic cleansing of mostly Bosnian Muslims from their homes and towns, including the genocide of Srebrenica's men and teenage boys. The Sit Room reveals the behind-the-scenes story about how American policy evolved--often futilely--to try to stop an intractable war and its shocking atrocities. Main actors in the Sit Room include: the assertive Ambassador to the United Nations, Madeleine Albright; the State Department's ace negotiator, Richard Holbrooke; the cerebral National Security Adviser, Tony Lake; the immigrant Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, John Shalikashvili; the bulldog Deputy National Security Adviser, Sandy Berger; and White House moralist, David Gergen. For almost three years, the Sit Room was littered with shattered proposals to end the war-until armed force backed up diplomacy to compel a fragile peace deal. The Sit Room reveals authentic policy-making at the highest levels, with a unique journey into the arena of war and peace where spirited debate guided America's foreign policy.

A Nonconformist Novel with No Central Character “Either we are men, or we are women. Either we are cold, or we are sentimental. Either we are young, or growing old. In any case life is but a procession of shadows, and God knows why it is that we embrace them so eagerly, and see them depart with such anguish, being shadows.” - Virginia Woolf, Jacob's Room Jacob’s Room is not your typical Victorian English novel. The fact that there is no real protagonist stands out the most. Jacob is not actually a character, only a collection of memories, feelings and sensations. His life is like a room seen through the eyes of other people. This Xist Classics edition has been professionally formatted for e-readers with a linked table of contents. This eBook also contains a bonus book club leadership guide and discussion questions. We hope you’ll share this book with your friends, neighbors and colleagues and can’t wait to hear what you have to say about it.

《英文經典書系》【文字．有聲版】旨在打造一個在閱讀經典名著的同時，還能親耳聆聽道地英文讀音的友善環境。讓讀者在欣賞大師的精彩文章之餘，還能一舉兩得，以耳朵來品嘗不同於單純文字的滋味。如果您的英文已達中級以上程度，與其讀些簡化的名著改寫版本，不如精讀原汁原味的原典吧，這才是貨真價實的文藝賞析。 《窗外有藍天》（A Room with a View）是英國作家E. M. Forster於1908年所發表的一部小說，描寫一位生活在英格蘭的年輕女子露西的故事。故事發生在義大利和英格蘭兩地，Forster在作品中比較了義大利和英格蘭的差異：義大利相對自由，允許自然的激情，與壓抑虛偽的英格蘭社會形成對照。在義大利旅行期間，露西的世界觀發生了戲劇性的改變。這既是一部愛情小說，同時也是對20世紀初英國社會的批評。 在這部小說中，女主人公露西始終處於男權思想對她的控制壓迫，跟她的女性自我意識的覺醒產生衝突與反抗。作為一個生活於現實社會的女性，她無可避免地受到了環境的種種影響，而客觀存在的強大的男權思想使得這場衝突更加激烈。男權社會首先從家庭、社會關係方面影響並左右她的潛意識，使她與生俱來的女性意識為之鈍化。 露西出身於富裕的中產階級家庭，而露西所在的家庭則是男權社會的既得利益者，理所當然地維護男權社會的利益。在這樣的家庭成長的露西，從小就是按照社會所制定的女性標準被塑造成理想的大家閨秀。她被告知「女人的使命是以鼓勵別人去取得成就，而不是自己去取得成就」。而理想的」女性」應該是等待騎士們「保護」，接受他們「致敬」的「中世紀女士」。其實質是對女性能力的否定。露西曾幾次試圖抑制自己的女性自我意識，使自己的言行符合男性社會的道德準則。 在對艾默森父子有了較全面的瞭解後，當她聽到男權社會的代表伊德列牧師對艾默森的污蔑時，「叛逆思想將要通過言辭沖出口來」。而當她意識到這是對男權社會的挑戰時．「她的勇氣消失了，重新陷入了老一套的混亂的思想方法中去」。在她與喬治接吻之後，她為自己大膽的行為而「怎麼也控制不住連連深深地歎息，身軀不住地顫動」。在承受愛情的同時，她也意識到自己愛上了「一個不該愛的人」，因而，她很後悔害怕。 而那場大風暴也預示著，露西所追求的自我幸福為強大的社會陳腐道德所不容。她脆弱地向男權社會的衛道士——巴特利特小姐屈服，放棄了已開始的愛情，選擇了逃避。露西回到英國，與塞西爾訂婚，一度想按男權社會的標準與門當戶對的塞西爾一起生活。然而，喬治的再次出現，使她原本沉寂的心再次掀起波瀾。 《窗外有藍天》隨著露西美滿的結局而告一段落。而小說的末章，Forster用了充滿哲理和預言的一句話：「愛與真理最終將幫助人類度過一切難關」。這裡的愛指的是露西與喬治之間平等並相互尊重的愛，而不是塞西爾那種封建主似的恩賜的愛。而平等的愛要靠自己去爭取，對女性來說更是如此。
