Às vezes, muito divertido, às vezes, dramático, Tchekhov tece sua prosa com todos os fios da alma humana. Nela cabem toda a grandeza e toda a mesquinhez inerentes ao ser humano.

O clássico "Os Lusíadas", de Camões, trata da viagem de Vasco da Gama à Índia, em 1498. A obra apresenta um misto de narrativa histórica e de lenda, visitando os clássicos gregos (gigantes, ninfas e deuses do Olimpo que brigam entre si) e explicitando a crença católica do autor. Este também não deixa de imprimir em sua obra a amargura e o desgosto de quem apanhou - e muito - da vida.

Buda numa mesa de bar não é o livro de budismo da sua avó, e sim um guia para a nova geração. Aqui, o professor Lodro Rinzler apresenta as principais ideias do budismo de maneira simples e cativante para quem não tem tempo de fazer um retiro espiritual no Tibet. Você aprenderá a usar técnicas de meditação em situações do cotidiano, a controlar a sua mente, a relaxar - mesmo vivendo sob tanta pressão - e, finalmente, a trilhar um caminho próprio para trazer luz a um mundo que, às vezes, parece estressante e opressor.

Shakespeare se tornou o dramaturgo mais conhecido de todos os tempos por várias razões: era genial com as palavras, entendia a alma humana como ninguém e falava de temas universais. No entanto, parte de sua popularidade se deve aos irmãos Charles e Mary Lamb, que, ao adaptarem vinte peças para o formato de conto, tornaram as histórias do autor inglês acessíveis a pessoas de diferentes idades e gêneros, em diversas partes do mundo. Publicados em 1807, os contos dos Lamb eram destinados apenas ao público infantojuvenil e jovens senhoras....

Publisher's summary
Para sair da monotonia, o professor rural Ismael decide descobrir os mistérios das baleias. Quando ele encontra o arpoador Queequeg, eles partem juntos para a ilha de Nantucket em busca de trabalho no mercado de caça às baleias. Lá, eles embarcam com tripulantes de diversas nacionalidades no baleeiro Pequod para uma viagem de três anos aos mares do sul. Mal sabe ele que o sombrio capitão Ahab está obcecado por encontrar a fera responsável por seus ferimentos e que nenhum arpoador jamais conseguiu abater: a temível Moby Dick.
Essa rota cheia de perigos e incertezas foi adaptada ao cinema múltiplas vezes, como no filme homônimo produzido em 2010, estrelando Patrick Stewart, e no filme "No Coração do Mar" (2015) com Chris Hemsworth.
Este audiolivro é narrado em português brasileiro.
Herman Melville (1819-1891) foi um escritor, poeta e ensaísta estadunidense. Após a morte de seu pai, em 1832, teve de ajudar a manter a família (então com oito crianças). Assim, trabalhou como bancário, professor e fazendeiro. Em 1839, embarcou como ajudante no navio mercante St. Lawrence, com destino a Liverpool. Em 1841 esteve a bordo do baleeiro Acushnet que percorreu quase todo o Pacífico e passou um período com a tribo Typee na Polinésia. Suas aventuras marítimas continuaram ainda em outras viagens em baleeiros e arpoadores que inspiraram suas obras literárias.
A história de sua obra mais popular, "Moby-Dick", faz parte da cultura popular ocidental e foi fonte de inspiração para adaptações em diversas mídias, destacando-se o clássico filme homônimo de John Huston (1956), estrelando Gregory Peck, e as histórias em quadrinhos "Moby Dick" (2017) de Christophe Chabouté.

This, the first in the splendid series of Jack Aubrey novels, establishes the friendship between Captain Aubrey, Royal Navy, and Stephen Maturin, ship's surgeon and intelligence agent, against the thrilling backdrop of the Napoleonic wars. Details of life aboard a man-of-war in Nelson's navy are faultlessly rendered: the conversational idiom of the officers in the ward room and the men on the lower deck, the food, the floggings, the mysteries of the wind and the rigging, and the road of broadsides as the great ships close in battle.

The name Captain James Cook is one of the most recognisable in Australian history - an almost mythic figure who is often discussed, celebrated, reviled and debated. But who was the real James Cook? This Yorkshire farm boy would go on to become the foremost mariner, scientist, navigator and cartographer of his era, and to personally map a third of the globe. His great voyages of discovery were incredible feats of seamanship and navigation.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 5,587
This, the first in the splendid series of Jack Aubrey novels, establishes the friendship between Captain Aubrey, Royal Navy, and Stephen Maturin, ship's surgeon and intelligence agent, against the thrilling backdrop of the Napoleonic wars. Details of life aboard a man-of-war in Nelson's navy are faultlessly rendered: the conversational idiom of the officers in the ward room and the men on the lower deck, the food, the floggings, the mysteries of the wind and the rigging, and the road of broadsides as the great ships close in battle.

Robinson Crusoe is one of the most enduring adventures of the past four centuries and one of the most well-known works in the English language. Or is it? Recently discovered amidst the papers of the 20th-century writer and historian H. P. Lovecraft is what claims to be the true story of Robinson Crusoe. Taken from the castaway's own journals and memoirs, and fact-checked by Lovecraft himself, it is free from many of Defoe's edits and alterations. From Lovecraft's work a much smoother, simpler tale emerges - but also a far more disturbing one.

Long hailed as one of the greatest novels of the 20th century, Joseph Conrad's tale of one man's descent into the mysterious and deadly Congo jungle to find a messianic ivory trader is a journey into the depths of man's own greed and quest for power. Marlow, our narrator, relates his story of his slow upriver quest to meet the strange and enigmatic Kurtz, who lives isolated in the jungle and is revered by the natives he exploits.
