1.Of Mice and Men (Play) (DPS Acting Edition)Of Mice and Men (Play) (DPS Acting Edition)
from Dramatists Play Service Inc
Price: $7.50

Customer Review:
Although you can read this book in just a few short hours, the relatively few words found in "Of Mice and Men" carry tremendous weight. From the first paragraph Steinbeck manages to paint a vivid picture of the environment, taking great care to simultaneously describe both the beauty of nature and... more info

2.[no image]Number the Stars
from Dramatic Pub.

Customer Review:
Every few years I read this book over and love it every time. It is a great book to introduce kids to the plight of the Jews and non-Jews of German-occupied countries during WWII. My 10 year old read it and loved it too and it brought up a lot of questions. Highly recommended.

3.The Grapes of Wrath (Screenplay Edition)The Grapes of Wrath (Screenplay Edition)
from Dramatists Play Service
Price: $7.50

Customer Review:
Yup, I'm one of the freaks who actually likes this book, despite my roommate's information that it is highly melodramaticized. I don't care. I think it's great writing, and I love the interspersing stories that have nothing to do with the plot, and yet are so insightful.
Sorry, but I was... more info

Customer Review:
Like all Lewis' works, this book is full of insights into human life - into those aspects which are often too big and obvious for us to notice. These insights are given us directly from the enemy through the writings of a devil named Screwtape. He writes to his nephew (a novice tempter devil) about... more info

5.[no image]A Separate Peace
from Dramatic Pub.
Price: $6.95

Customer Review:
This book is one of several that is most memorable from my youth. The main character is one that you easily like, his spirit is pure. Like Siddhartha he has his Govinda who follows him around. The spirit that the main character embodies is what makes this book special to me, that and the fact that... more info

6.The Crucible (Penguin Classics)The Crucible (Penguin Classics)
from Penguin Classics
Price: $9.60

Customer Review:
Okay, so all sorts of historical details are altered for the sake of character drama, but so what? It does not change the fact that this is one heck of a great play that offers it all: romance, betrayal, psychology, murder, and more, all set in a sleepy little Puritan town obsessed with witches that... more info

9.Lolita (Perennial Bestseller Collection)Lolita (Perennial Bestseller Collection)
from G K Hall & Co

Customer Review:
Lolita is a beautifully-written book about a man and his sexual relationship with a young girl. Nabokov's beautiful writing contrasts sharply with the book's crude subject matter. This contrast is what makes this book brilliant, in my opinion.
