A ladra amaldiçoada

Autor: Margaret Owen

Número de Páginas: 490

Este livro não é um conto de fadas. Esta não é a história da princesa. Esta é a história que ninguém contou: a da criada malvada. Vanja é uma criada, e desde cedo aprendeu que nenhum presente é de graça. Quando suas madrinhas, as deusas Morte e Fortuna, exigem um preço alto por sua ajuda, a garota decide tomar as rédeas do seu futuro... e roubar a identidade de Gisele, a princesa que deveria servir. Agora, ela tem um álibi para frequentar as festas da nobreza e roubar as joias que vão financiar sua grande fuga. Até que, perto de conquistar sua liberdade, a jovem cruza o caminho da deusa errada e sofre uma maldição: seu corpo vai, aos poucos, se transformar nas pedras preciosas que ela tanto ama. Vanja tem duas semanas para descobrir como quebrar a maldição e escapar. O que já seria bem difícil sem um jovem detetive no seu encalço. Será que Vanja finalmente encontrou alguém páreo para sua inteligência — e capaz de mexer com seu coração? Com ilustrações da própria autora, este é o primeiro volume de uma série de fantasia sobre identidades roubadas, romances inesperados e garotas que estão longe de serem mocinhas.

Margaret Oliphant Wilson was born on April 4th, 1828 to Francis W. Wilson, a clerk, and Margaret Oliphant, at Wallyford, near Musselburgh, East Lothian. Her youth was spent in establishing a writing style and by 1849 she had her first novel published: Passages in the Life of Mrs. Margaret Maitland.

A beautiful little book - one wants to pigeonhole it as 'biography' (of his mother), but it's much more a work of literature than that. Barrie looks back on his life in Scotland, with his numerous siblings - though all but two remain nameless - and his parents. His father is barely mentioned, for it is his mother who seems to have been the centre of the author's life.

This concise new book provides close readings of both canonical and less familiar novels and articles by the novelist Margaret Oliphant (1828-97). They show how she maintained a spirited dialogue with her age, confronting its ingrained prejudices, while reinforcing some of them herself. / A prolific novelist, auto/biographer, and periodical writer, Mrs. Oliphant was also a highly contradictory figure. Not just for her apparently anti-feminist standpoint on many issues, but also for her disparaging dismissal of the 'sensation' novel of the 1860s, while freely adopting some of its features in her own writing (including supernatural tales). / This study argues that Oliphant's outlook on nineteenth-century culture was both provocative and unpredictable. Her best novels are witty, acerbic, and deeply ironic as she dismantles the sacred assumptions of the Victorian middle classes. / Oliphant was a keen observer of dysfunctional families, male professionals, and religious snobbery. She notices bodies and clothes, the touch of hands, unflattering complexions, loud colours, and limp muslins. This thorough reappraisal of the most controversial areas of her writing draws on fresh critical...

Margaret Oliphant Wilson Oliphant (1828-97) had a wide-ranging and prolific literary career that spanned almost fifty years. She wrote some 98 novels, over fifty short stories, twenty-five works of non-fiction, including biographies and historic guides to European cities, and more than three hundred periodical articles. As the self-styled 'general utility woman' for Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, often contributing both fiction and literary reviews to the same issue, she became a major critical voice for her generation. Her influence, usually cast on the side of 'the common reader', was such that it provoked fellow novelists such as Anthony Trollope, Henry James and Thomas Hardy to savage fictional portraits by way of retaliation.
