Description  

 

Explore English literature from the 14th century to the 21st century.  I have a library of graded readers covering all levels 1 - 6.  There is everything from Geoffrey Chaucer to George Orwell via Shakespeare to explore.

 

Are you interested in horror?  Then how about Bram Stoker’s ‘Dracula’ or the ghost stories of M. R. James?  Is romance what you like in literature?  Then why not study ‘Sense and Sensibility’ by Jane Austen, or if you prefer your romance a bit more dramatic, then I would recommend ‘Wuthering Heights’ by Emily Brontë.  If science fiction is more your taste, you will find H. G. Wells and Jules Verne in my collection.  Is adventure what you are interested in?  How about 'Jamaica Inn' by Daphne du Maurier.  Politics?  '1984' by George Orwell.  Is comedy more your thing?  In my library you will find ‘Three Men in a Boat’ by Jerome K. Jerome.  Perhaps detective stories?  I have the greatest of them all – Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.  And of course, no library would be complete without the classic tales from Thomas Hardy and Charles Dickens.

 

When you learn English with some of the finest stories ever told, it helps to make everything you learn stay in your memory.
