An allegory based on a true story; Liar is about a kingdom caught in the struggle for truth. Opposing voices battle for the souls of the villagers. The Blessing, which brings peace and comfort, and Liar, who brings contempt and shame. "Weak. Ugly. Unwanted. Impossible to Love." Liar's words - thorns filled with poison, find their mark. Sinking under the weight of Liar's tyranny, the villagers begin to lose hope. Change finally comes when a daring young man - an orphan ironically named 'Prince' - comes to their rescue. Standing before the King with courage and vulnerability, Prince reveals what the poisonous thorns of Liar have done to him. When he finds that the King does not reject him, and the woman he rescued is not repulsed by him; Prince finds his courage. Determined the villagers must all be set free; Prince risks his life to expose Liar for who he is - a thief to the still small voice of The Blessing. There was The Liar. There was The Blessing. The kingdom was aptly named¿ Struggle.In a culture that is increasingly isolating, Liar is relevant to this age because it reveals our need for safe and authentic connection. It teaches the strength in becoming vulnerable, the value of authentic friendship, and the need for truth in our day. Using characters that embody kindness and courage, Liar exposes the enemy of our souls and points the way to freedom.

This early work by Henry James was originally published in 1888 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. Henry James was born in New York City in 1843. One of thirteen children, James had an unorthodox early education, switching between schools, private tutors and private reading.. James published his first story, 'A Tragedy of Error', in the Continental Monthly in 1864, when he was twenty years old. In 1876, he emigrated to London, where he remained for the vast majority of the rest of his life, becoming a British citizen in 1915. From this point on, he was a hugely prolific author, eventually producing twenty novels and more than a hundred short stories and novellas, as well as literary criticism, plays and travelogues. Amongst James's most famous works are The Europeans (1878), Daisy Miller (1878), Washington Square (1880), The Bostonians (1886), and one of the most famous ghost stories of all time, The Turn of the Screw (1898). We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

The New York Times bestseller. "His book is a wake-up call at a time when many believe the net was a flash in the pan."—BusinessWeek With his knowing eye and wicked pen, Michael Lewis reveals how the Internet boom has encouraged changes in the way we live, work, and think. In the midst of one of the greatest status revolutions in the history of the world, the Internet has become a weapon in the hands of revolutionaries. Old priesthoods are crumbling. In the new order, the amateur is king: fourteen-year-olds manipulate the stock market and nineteen-year-olds take down the music industry. Unseen forces undermine all forms of collectivism, from the family to the mass market: one black box has the power to end television as we know it, and another one may dictate significant changes in our practice of democracy. With a new afterword by the author.
