Acerca de esta escucha
Il povero hawaiano Keawe pensa di aver fatto il miglior affare della sua vita. Ha comprato una strana bottiglia da un uomo anziano e misterioso, in cui risiede un diavoletto. Gli è stato detto che il diavoletto soddisferà ogni suo desiderio... ma ogni cosa ha un prezzo, e Keawe non era pronto a pagarlo.
Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) fu uno scrittore scozzese di romanzi, poesie, saggi e libri di viaggio. A causa di problemi di salute, trascorse molto tempo all'estero, dove entrò a far parte di importanti circoli letterari.
Sebbene la sua scrittura sia stata spesso considerata intrattenimento, l'autore Henry James ha allineato le opere di Stevenson alle sue. I suoi romanzi più famosi sono L'isola del tesoro (1883) e Lo strano caso del dottor Jekyll e del signor Hyde (1886).

Historia
H. P. Lovecraft is arguably the most important horror writer of the 20th century. Culled from his 1927 essay "Supernatural Horror in Literature”, Lovecraft acknowledges those authors and stories that he feels are the very finest the horror field has to offer, including Washington Irving, Edgar Allan Poe, Henry James, Rudyard Kipling, Bram Stoker, Robert Louis Stevenson, Guy de Maupassant, Ambrose Bierce, and Arthur Conan Doyle. This chilling collection includes 20 works, each prefaced by Lovecraft's own opinions and insights in each author’s work.

Historia
H. P. Lovecraft is arguably the most important horror writer of the 20th century. Culled from his 1927 essay "Supernatural Horror in Literature”, Lovecraft acknowledges those authors and stories that he feels are the very finest the horror field has to offer, including Washington Irving, Edgar Allan Poe, Henry James, Rudyard Kipling, Bram Stoker, Robert Louis Stevenson, Guy de Maupassant, Ambrose Bierce, and Arthur Conan Doyle. This chilling collection includes 20 works, each prefaced by Lovecraft's own opinions and insights in each author’s work.

Historia
Grigori Aleksandrovich Pechorin is an enigma: arrogant, cocky, melancholic, brave, cynic, romantic, loner, socialite, soldier, free soul, and yet, victim of the world, he eludes definition and remains a mystery to those who know him. Just who is he? And what does he hope to achieve? Evolving from first person to third person, and then into a diary, A Hero of Our Time takes on a variety of forms to interrogate Pechorin's cryptic character and his unusual philosophy, providing breathtaking descriptions of the Caucasus along the way.

Historia
A wildly comic send-up of Irish literature and culture, At Swim-Two-Birds is the story of a young, lazy, and frequently drunk Irish college student who lives with his curmudgeonly uncle in Dublin. When not in bed (where he seems to spend most of his time) or reading, he is composing a mischief-filled novel about Dermot Trellis, a second-rate author whose characters ultimately rebel against him and seek vengeance. From drugging him as he sleeps to dropping the ceiling on his head, these figures of Irish myth make Trellis pay dearly for his bad writing.
