When Nora Seed reaches her lowest point, convinced she has nothing left to offer the world, she finds herself in the Midnight Library, a place suspended at the stroke of midnight where the clocks never move. Each book on its shelves opens onto a different version of the life she might have lived: the marriage she walked away from, the Olympic swimming career her father dreamed for her, the rock band she abandoned, the small choices and the enormous ones.\n\nGuided by Mrs. Elm, the school librarian who was once kind to her, Nora begins to slip between these lives, testing the shape of her regrets against the reality of the paths not taken. Each life teaches her something about the difference between the life she imagined and the one she can actually inhabit.\n\nMatt Haig's international bestseller is a warm, quietly philosophical fable about depression, regret, and the possibility of change. It asks a deceptively simple question — if you could undo every disappointment, would you? — and finds an answer in the ordinary, unglamorous business of being alive.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjx3tmgm974jvka9hzw16ny5.jpg","L99tcRt700M_00WA~ooz4UWB?]o#",2020,"3.63",4,299,[195],{"id":196,"slug":197,"name":198},"01kjqtygnxx0defvm5knq5pt23","matt-haig-kb3p","Matt Haig",[200,204,205,206,207,208],{"id":201,"name":202,"slug":203,"is_fiction":19},30,"Time Travel","time-travel",{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":19},{"id":50,"name":51,"slug":52,"is_fiction":19},{"id":38,"name":39,"slug":40,"is_fiction":19},{"id":58,"name":59,"slug":60,"is_fiction":19},{"id":46,"name":47,"slug":48,"is_fiction":19},[210],{"id":211,"slug":212,"name":213,"position":214,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kmrw8rhqwvcd38d10brnjn45","the-midnight-world-qesv","The Midnight World","1.00",{"pace":154,"complexity":7,"audience":157,"mood":216,"themes":220,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[217,218,219],"reflective","hopeful","emotional",[],{"id":222,"slug":223,"title":224,"description":225,"primary_cover_url":226,"cover_blurhash":227,"first_publish_year":228,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":229,"authors":230,"genres":235,"series":249,"enrichment":250},"01ksk4vhgnm2qqqx4j8h3w8083","walking-practice-wvuq","Walking Practice","Stranded on Earth after crash-landing their spacecraft, a shapeshifting alien is disabled by the planet's punishing gravity and driven by a single, relentless need: to eat.

Everywhere he goes, the face of Big Brother watches from posters and the ever-present telescreen watches back, recording every word and expression. Even a private thought against the Party is a crime punishable by death.\n\nWorn down by hunger, surveillance, and the deliberate poverty of daily life, Winston begins to keep a secret diary and to nurse a quiet, dangerous conviction that the past was different and the truth still exists somewhere outside the Party's control. When he falls into a forbidden love affair with a bold young woman named Julia, the two carve out a small world of their own and let themselves imagine resistance. Their rebellion draws the attention of the inner Party and the enigmatic official O'Brien, and Winston is forced to confront just how far a total state will go to own not only a person's actions but their mind.\n\nGeorge Orwell's 1949 novel gave the language \"Big Brother,\" \"doublethink,\" \"thoughtcrime,\" and \"Newspeak,\" and remains one of the most influential warnings ever written about totalitarianism, propaganda, and the manipulation of truth.

But the club grows beyond bare-knuckle catharsis into Project Mayhem, an underground movement bent on tearing down the world that made them.\n\nChuck Palahniuk's debut novel is a savage, blackly funny assault on consumerism, masculinity, and the anaesthetised modern self. Told in terse, hypnotic prose with an unreliable narrator and one of fiction's most infamous twists, Fight Club became a cult classic and the basis for David Fincher's film.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkcaky1pczaxxb6wpejpz59v.jpg","LCKx0b%NM{xu00sC4nX7008{~qM{",1996,222,[384],{"id":385,"slug":386,"name":387},"01kjss78sknxyh4h4fjpsvtnwk","chuck-palahniuk-0acs","Chuck Palahniuk",[389,390,391,392,393,396,400,404],{"id":46,"name":47,"slug":48,"is_fiction":19},{"id":50,"name":51,"slug":52,"is_fiction":19},{"id":54,"name":55,"slug":56,"is_fiction":19},{"id":58,"name":59,"slug":60,"is_fiction":19},{"id":394,"name":128,"slug":395,"is_fiction":18},103,"society",{"id":397,"name":398,"slug":399,"is_fiction":19},118,"Satire","satire",{"id":401,"name":402,"slug":403,"is_fiction":19},119,"Humor","humor",{"id":240,"name":241,"slug":242,"is_fiction":19},[406],{"id":407,"slug":408,"name":377,"position":214,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kk3nj5m2p6g2qxyn5p7mg64q","fight-club-7jsz",{"pace":251,"complexity":7,"audience":157,"mood":410,"themes":412,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[159,411],"funny",[165],{"id":414,"slug":415,"title":416,"description":417,"primary_cover_url":418,"cover_blurhash":419,"first_publish_year":420,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":421,"authors":422,"genres":443,"series":455,"enrichment":460},"01kjstjjpbn5hrwhmzbrcy3tzc","the-ocean-at-the-end-of-the-lane-8jcn","The Ocean at the End of the Lane","Returning to his childhood home in rural Sussex for a funeral, a middle-aged man finds himself drawn down a country lane to a farm at its end, and to a duck pond a girl once called her ocean. Sitting there, he remembers something he had entirely forgotten: the strange and terrifying weeks when he was seven years old and the world briefly came apart.\n\nIt began with a death and a handful of coins, and with the girl at the end of the lane—Lettie Hempstock, who claimed she and her mother and grandmother were far older than they looked. When something ancient and hungry followed the boy home in the shape of a new housekeeper, it wormed its way into his family and turned the people he trusted against him. Only the Hempstock women, guardians of forces older than the moon, stood between him and being unmade.\n\nNeil Gaiman's short, luminous novel is a dark fairy tale about childhood, memory, and the enormous, unspeakable things that can happen to small people. Tender and frightening in equal measure, it asks how much of who we were survives into who we become.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01km8atkmrsekq76y51b5ca3mn.jpg","LYL#X%WU^lM}}]xaNss._2WBR*xt",2013,224,[423,427,431,435,439],{"id":424,"slug":425,"name":426},"01kjq7mqgv9pzgwqz89s3e2kwn","neil-gaiman-mbkg","Neil Gaiman",{"id":428,"slug":429,"name":430},"01kjstjjr83vegmqa4zymb90qz","monica-faerna-9x69","Mónica Faerna",{"id":432,"slug":433,"name":434},"01kjstjjrhseqvacj38kg3d9ss","patrick-marcel-bv39","Patrick Marcel",{"id":436,"slug":437,"name":438},"01kjstjjrr5fwcmrkm4835f3dk","lluis-delgado-avsu","Lluís Delgado",{"id":440,"slug":441,"name":442},"01kjstjjs0d7v8wemrw8vs86c7","oriol-hernandez-vfp7","Oriol Hernández",[444,445,449,450,451,454],{"id":34,"name":35,"slug":36,"is_fiction":19},{"id":446,"name":447,"slug":448,"is_fiction":19},24,"Dark Fantasy","dark-fantasy",{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":19},{"id":38,"name":39,"slug":40,"is_fiction":19},{"id":151,"name":452,"slug":453,"is_fiction":19},"Folklore","folklore",{"id":50,"name":51,"slug":52,"is_fiction":19},[456],{"id":457,"slug":458,"name":459,"position":283,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kvj75xeqtxsatjybgz6mqjmw","the-hempstock-saga-eity","The Hempstock Saga",{"pace":154,"complexity":7,"audience":157,"mood":461,"themes":462,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[159,217,286],[],{"id":464,"slug":465,"title":466,"description":467,"primary_cover_url":468,"cover_blurhash":469,"first_publish_year":470,"community_rating_avg":471,"community_rating_count":192,"page_count":472,"authors":473,"genres":478,"series":490,"enrichment":491},"01kjq7vve1jp8xd330grwrj6z5","kafka-on-the-shore-ijax","Kafka on the Shore","Kafka on the Shore follows two seemingly unrelated journeys that gradually bend toward each other. Kafka Tamura, a fiercely self-reliant fifteen-year-old, runs away from his father's house in Tokyo to escape a grim prophecy and to search for the mother and sister who abandoned him years ago. His flight carries him to a quiet private library in the seaside city of Takamatsu, where he takes shelter among the stacks and the people who tend them.\n\nElsewhere, Satoru Nakata, an aging man who lost his memory and his ability to read after a strange childhood incident, moves through the same world on a quieter frequency. Nakata cannot manage much of ordinary life, but he can talk to cats, and a simple errand to find a lost pet pulls him onto a road he does not fully understand.\n\nAs their paths run in parallel, Murakami threads together talking animals, spirits that slip loose from the living, fish that fall from the sky, and a song that seems to hold memory itself. It is a novel about fate and free will, about grief and desire, and about the strange interior places we travel through to become ourselves. Dreamlike and exact at once, it rewards readers willing to sit inside mystery rather than demand that every thread be tied.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz5qvvrrkfghx8x34z0h319.jpg","LB9rw%B71b|xxuj[o2SL3V;%[X6z",2006,"4.00",512,[474],{"id":475,"slug":476,"name":477},"01kjq7vve6v87xc574qr4c7a4y","untitled-pcch","村上春樹",[479,483,484,485,488,489],{"id":480,"name":481,"slug":482,"is_fiction":19},11,"Mythology","mythology",{"id":50,"name":51,"slug":52,"is_fiction":19},{"id":38,"name":39,"slug":40,"is_fiction":19},{"id":156,"name":486,"slug":487,"is_fiction":19},"Mystery","mystery",{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":19},{"id":58,"name":59,"slug":60,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":320,"complexity":7,"audience":157,"mood":492,"themes":493,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[286,217],[],{"id":495,"slug":496,"title":497,"description":498,"primary_cover_url":499,"cover_blurhash":500,"first_publish_year":501,"community_rating_avg":502,"community_rating_count":42,"page_count":503,"authors":504,"genres":506,"series":518,"enrichment":519},"01kjr7gfn7zk998728y0s40zga","1q84-3epz","1Q84","1Q84 is Haruki Murakami's sprawling metaphysical epic, a love story wrapped inside a mystery, wrapped inside a quietly terrifying alternate world. In Tokyo, 1984, a woman named Aomame climbs down an emergency stairway off a gridlocked expressway and, without quite realizing it, steps out of the world she knew and into one subtly, dangerously wrong. She comes to call it 1Q84, the year with a question mark, and its surest sign is that two moons now hang in the night sky.\n\nAomame is a fitness instructor with a lethal secret vocation. Tengo is a gentle math teacher and unpublished novelist who agrees to ghost-rewrite a strange, luminous manuscript by a mysterious teenage girl, a decision that draws the attention of a powerful religious cult and the eerie beings it calls the Little People. Aomame and Tengo have not seen each other since they were ten years old, when a single held hand sealed a bond neither has ever spoken of. Across hundreds of pages and a shifting reality, the two move slowly, achingly toward each other.\n\nExpansive, hypnotic, and shadowed by menace, 1Q84 braids assassination and tenderness, cults and fairy tales, into one of Murakami's most ambitious novels, a book about fate, storytelling, and the leap of faith it takes to find one person in a world where the rules have quietly changed.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kmrwcnwzexb29vmd31kr3p5c.jpg","LIH_iAt500o|R*aLR.Rj00kW~Wi_",2009,"4.50",795,[505],{"id":475,"slug":476,"name":477},[507,508,509,510,511,512,513,514],{"id":240,"name":241,"slug":242,"is_fiction":19},{"id":50,"name":51,"slug":52,"is_fiction":19},{"id":342,"name":343,"slug":344,"is_fiction":19},{"id":38,"name":39,"slug":40,"is_fiction":19},{"id":156,"name":486,"slug":487,"is_fiction":19},{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":19},{"id":58,"name":59,"slug":60,"is_fiction":19},{"id":515,"name":516,"slug":517,"is_fiction":19},202,"Alternate History","alternate-history",[],{"pace":320,"complexity":7,"audience":157,"mood":520,"themes":521,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[286,255,287],[290,324],{"id":523,"slug":524,"title":525,"description":526,"primary_cover_url":527,"cover_blurhash":528,"first_publish_year":529,"community_rating_avg":530,"community_rating_count":34,"page_count":531,"authors":532,"genres":537,"series":543,"enrichment":551},"01kjr36348efxpzn9xx6j77xmc","before-the-coffee-gets-cold-uwh9","Before the Coffee Gets Cold","In a small basement café in Tokyo, there is a seat that offers something no other café can: the chance to travel back in time. The rules, however, are strict and unforgiving. You can only meet people who have also visited the café; you cannot leave your chair; nothing you do in the past will change the present; and you must return before your coffee gets cold.\n\nOver four interwoven stories, a handful of customers choose to sit in that seat anyway. A woman confronts the man who left her; a wife tries to reach her husband before his memory fades to illness; a sister waits for a sibling she cannot forgive; a mother reaches for a child she will never get to raise. None of them can rewrite what has happened—but each discovers that revisiting a single moment can still change the heart, if not the facts.\n\nToshikazu Kawaguchi's gentle, bittersweet novel began as a stage play and has become an international bestseller. Quiet and character-driven, Before the Coffee Gets Cold is a meditation on regret, second chances, and the small comforts that let us carry our losses forward.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz49tv4w0dy4pmcpbcyfcda.jpg","L5Ma^a~V^+K*009a9a-o3WkW9ZM{",2021,"3.86",272,[533],{"id":534,"slug":535,"name":536},"01kjr3634czxspaqb6b84aggvy","untitled-elop","川口俊和",[538,539,540,541,542],{"id":38,"name":39,"slug":40,"is_fiction":19},{"id":201,"name":202,"slug":203,"is_fiction":19},{"id":58,"name":59,"slug":60,"is_fiction":19},{"id":50,"name":51,"slug":52,"is_fiction":19},{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":19},[544,548],{"id":545,"slug":546,"name":547,"position":214,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kmrw94gvtnst4enxsq7j38p1","untitled-f2dj","コーヒーが冷めないうちに",{"id":549,"slug":550,"name":525,"position":214,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kjr3636nd1m1j5nrbxe8szfg","before-the-coffee-gets-cold-6cur",{"pace":320,"complexity":7,"audience":157,"mood":552,"themes":554,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[217,219,553],"cozy",[555],"time-loop",[557,779,948,1132],{"key":558,"params":559,"works":560},"theme",{"theme":164},[561,602,644,673,715,746],{"id":562,"slug":563,"title":564,"description":565,"primary_cover_url":566,"cover_blurhash":567,"first_publish_year":420,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":568,"authors":569,"genres":574,"series":590,"enrichment":595},"01kvnaqmxsfxz7m15mxvkb09jz","one-good-earl-deserves-a-lover-foa7","One Good Earl Deserves a Lover","Lady Philippa Marbury would rather study fossils and flora than navigate the polite expectations of the ton.

Alone with the problem, he works it the way a scientist would — observation, hypothesis, trial and error — until he discovers he is not alone in the system.

Led by the pigs, the most clever of the animals, the farm is renamed and the beasts set about running their world for their own benefit.\n\nBut power reshapes those who hold it. As the ambitious boar Napoleon consolidates control, the founding ideals are quietly rewritten, dissent is punished, and the promises of the revolution curdle into a tyranny that looks unsettlingly like the one it replaced. The other animals, loyal and hardworking, struggle to remember how things were meant to be.\n\nGeorge Orwell's short, savage fable uses a barnyard uprising to trace how revolutions are betrayed, how language is bent to serve power, and how easily the many can be ruled by the few.

It surfaces roughly every twenty-seven years to prey on Derry's children, and in the summer of 1958 the Losers — Bill, Ben, Beverly, Richie, Eddie, Mike, and Stan — become the only people willing to fight it.\n\nTwenty-seven years later, the killings begin again. The Losers, now scattered adults who have half-forgotten what happened to them, are called back to Derry by a promise they made as children: to return and finish what they started. King tells their story through a nonlinear structure that braids the two eras together, so that childhood and adulthood, memory and present terror, bleed into one another.\n\nOne of Stephen King's most ambitious and enduring novels, It is at once an epic horror story and a meditation on childhood, memory, friendship, and the losses that come with growing up. Beneath the monster lies a portrait of a town poisoned by its own buried violence, and of the fragile, ferocious bonds that let a group of frightened kids stand against it.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz47pqkwte0s6rtqpsy783n.jpg","LJBp98oe56of_Nj]M{j[KiWV$jbH",1987,1106,[1044],{"id":1045,"slug":1046,"name":1047},"01kjq7cgwx9qy9qa01epjzwzdx","stephen-king-qalr","Stephen King",[1049,1050,1051,1052,1056,1057],{"id":446,"name":447,"slug":448,"is_fiction":19},{"id":34,"name":35,"slug":36,"is_fiction":19},{"id":240,"name":241,"slug":242,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1053,"name":1054,"slug":1055,"is_fiction":19},40,"Suspense","suspense",{"id":50,"name":51,"slug":52,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1058,"name":1059,"slug":1060,"is_fiction":19},51,"Cosmic Horror","cosmic-horror",[1062],{"id":1063,"slug":1064,"name":1065,"position":214,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kvkk2ddsk2cqbfehehtvhbjj","derry-aelz","Derry",{"pace":320,"complexity":7,"audience":157,"mood":1067,"themes":1068,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[159,641],[1069,290],"found-family",{"id":1071,"slug":1072,"title":1073,"description":1074,"primary_cover_url":1075,"cover_blurhash":1076,"first_publish_year":1077,"community_rating_avg":1078,"community_rating_count":34,"page_count":7,"authors":1079,"genres":1084,"series":1089,"enrichment":1093},"01kjq7e534krx9eb6cmbstbjnq","brave-new-world-0xdc","Brave New World","Brave New World is Aldous Huxley's 1932 dystopian novel and one of the defining works of twentieth-century science fiction. It imagines a distant-future World State that has traded away family, art, religion, and struggle for guaranteed stability: children are decanted from bottles and conditioned into rigid castes, discontent is dissolved by the pleasure-drug soma, and citizens are engineered from birth to love the servitude assigned to them.\n\nThe story follows Bernard Marx, an Alpha who feels subtly out of step with his frictionless society, and Lenina Crowne, who embodies its ideals. A trip to a \"Savage Reservation\" brings them back to London with John, a young man raised on Shakespeare and outside the World State's control. His collision with a civilization that cannot understand grief, longing, or belief drives the novel toward its unsettling conclusion.\n\nBy turns satirical and chilling, Huxley's book interrogates the price of manufactured happiness and the loss of individuality in a technological age. Alongside Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, it remains one of the most argued-over visions of where comfort and control might lead.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01ktj57fnbr5jdwma10qsb0vk3.jpg?v=ae2c1b8840","L9O3RV8wz-#Q00W?xuof~AjbIpbH",1932,"3.64",[1080],{"id":1081,"slug":1082,"name":1083},"01kjq7e53bgh3z11gb6836rgg0","aldous-huxley-jivl","Aldous Huxley",[1085,1086,1087,1088],{"id":46,"name":47,"slug":48,"is_fiction":19},{"id":342,"name":343,"slug":344,"is_fiction":19},{"id":364,"name":365,"slug":366,"is_fiction":19},{"id":50,"name":51,"slug":52,"is_fiction":19},[1090],{"id":1091,"slug":1092,"name":1073,"position":214,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kr7yecprdcpf8sfzjmhy1jrk","brave-new-world-keql",{"pace":154,"complexity":7,"audience":157,"mood":1094,"themes":1095,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[159,217],[],{"id":1097,"slug":1098,"title":1099,"description":1100,"primary_cover_url":1101,"cover_blurhash":1102,"first_publish_year":1103,"community_rating_avg":1104,"community_rating_count":50,"page_count":1105,"authors":1106,"genres":1111,"series":1125,"enrichment":1129},"01kjq7cmey2gczvhsq50rk54yq","fahrenheit-451-xroi","Fahrenheit 451","In a future America, firemen do not put out fires—they start them.

He does his work without question until a series of encounters cracks the surface of his contented life: a curious teenage neighbor who asks whether he is really happy, a woman who chooses to die with her books rather than live without them, and a wife who has quietly given up on everything but the voices coming from the walls.\n\nUnsettled, Montag begins to steal the books he is supposed to destroy, hoping they hold whatever it is his world has lost. His awakening puts him on a collision course with his superior and with a society engineered to keep everyone entertained, medicated, and incapable of sustained thought.\n\nRay Bradbury's classic dystopian novel is a fierce, lyrical warning about censorship, mass media, and the quiet ways a culture can decide that thinking is too much trouble. Decades after publication it remains one of the most widely read and debated novels about the value of books and the cost of their loss.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjq7cmgpttgygq4tspg6rp8p.jpg","LAQ9M+?w^HR3L}m*S1SjIQ9EDj?v",1953,"3.30",231,[1107],{"id":1108,"slug":1109,"name":1110},"01kjq7cmf58hz75w0429j12vr0","ray-bradbury-snol","Ray Bradbury",[1112,1113,1117,1118,1119,1120,1121],{"id":350,"name":351,"slug":352,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1114,"name":1115,"slug":1116,"is_fiction":18},79,"Education","education",{"id":46,"name":47,"slug":48,"is_fiction":19},{"id":342,"name":343,"slug":344,"is_fiction":19},{"id":364,"name":365,"slug":366,"is_fiction":19},{"id":50,"name":51,"slug":52,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1122,"name":1123,"slug":1124,"is_fiction":19},203,"Social Sci-Fi","social-sci-fi",[1126],{"id":1127,"slug":1128,"name":1099,"position":214,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kmrw84sm973e379drn8vadgc","fahrenheit-451-beqa",{"pace":154,"complexity":7,"audience":157,"mood":1130,"themes":1131,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[159,217,372],[],{"key":1133,"params":1134,"works":1135},"genre",{"genre":51},[1136,1173,1201,1226,1266,1291],{"id":1137,"slug":1138,"title":1139,"description":1140,"primary_cover_url":1141,"cover_blurhash":1142,"first_publish_year":1143,"community_rating_avg":1144,"community_rating_count":932,"page_count":1145,"authors":1146,"genres":1152,"series":1157,"enrichment":1170},"01kjstsx50skf7n7txdftxgf2b","1984-niqg","1984","A simplified retelling of George Orwell's dystopian classic, adapted by Michael Dean for the Penguin Readers \u002F Pearson English graded-reader series at Level 4 for learners of English.\n\nWinston Smith lives in Oceania, a state where the Party controls every fact, every image, and every thought, and where the face of Big Brother watches from every wall.

His neighbor is Jay Gatsby, a self-made millionaire famous for the lavish parties he throws every weekend, though almost no one knows where his fortune came from or what he truly wants.\n\nThrough Nick, we learn that Gatsby's glittering displays are all in service of a single obsession: Daisy Buchanan, the woman he loved before the war and who is now married to the wealthy, brutish Tom Buchanan. As Nick is drawn into the tangled lives of the East Egg and West Egg elite, the distance between old money and new, between illusion and reality, becomes impossible to bridge.\n\nF. Scott Fitzgerald's 1925 novel is a compact, lyrical portrait of the Jazz Age and a piercing critique of the American Dream. Its symbols — the green light across the bay, the fading eyes of Doctor T.

As Dorian, encouraged by the cynical, epigram-spouting Lord Henry Wotton, gives himself over to a life of pleasure, cruelty, and corruption, his face remains untouched — while the portrait, hidden away, grows monstrous with every sin.\n\nOscar Wilde's only novel is a dark fable of aestheticism, vanity, and moral consequence, as sharp in its wit as it is unsettling in its horror. Around Dorian's unchanging beauty, Wilde builds a Faustian parable about the cost of a life lived purely for sensation, and a portrait of Victorian society's obsession with surface and youth.\n\nFirst published in 1890 and expanded the following year, the book scandalised its first readers and remains one of the most enduring works of Gothic and philosophical fiction in English.","https:\u002F\u002Fcovers.openlibrary.org\u002Fb\u002Fid\u002F15156805-L.jpg","L06a#84:01%20500~l_1?I02~T-:",1890,"4.55",[1236,1240],{"id":1237,"slug":1238,"name":1239},"01kjqtyw338nszf68q3cd3wx0q","oscar-wilde-e6uf","Oscar Wilde",{"id":1241,"slug":1242,"name":1243},"01km6s1x9ssy8cykv6n0qy1by3","jennifer-wicke-skbg","Jennifer Wicke",[1245,1246,1247,1251,1252,1256,1257,1261],{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1114,"name":1115,"slug":1116,"is_fiction":18},{"id":1248,"name":1249,"slug":1250,"is_fiction":18},70,"History","history",{"id":50,"name":51,"slug":52,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1253,"name":1254,"slug":1255,"is_fiction":19},47,"Gothic","gothic",{"id":364,"name":365,"slug":366,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1258,"name":1259,"slug":1260,"is_fiction":18},105,"Philosophy","philosophy",{"id":34,"name":35,"slug":36,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":154,"complexity":7,"audience":157,"mood":1264,"themes":1265,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[159,217],[],{"id":1267,"slug":1268,"title":1269,"description":1270,"primary_cover_url":1271,"cover_blurhash":7,"first_publish_year":1272,"community_rating_avg":1273,"community_rating_count":34,"page_count":1274,"authors":1275,"genres":1280,"series":1287,"enrichment":1288},"01kpae2pceanqhvyxh521v782t","yesteryear-kwx5","Yesteryear","Natalie Heller Mills has built an empire on nostalgia.

What the camera never shows are the nannies, the producers, and the industrial appliances humming just out of frame. Then a public scandal detonates her carefully managed image — and Natalie wakes to find herself trapped in a brutal, unforgiving version of 1855. The ranch is now a freezing cabin without plumbing or heat; the children who answer to her are strangers; and the household is ruled by an archaic, menacing version of her own family. Forced to actually live the pioneer existence she once performed for views, she tries to work out whether she is the victim of an elaborate hoax, a twisted reality show, or something far stranger. Burke’s debut threads social satire through psychological suspense, using Natalie’s predicament to interrogate the performance of womanhood, the machinery behind influencer culture, and the seductive lie of “the good old days.” Sharp, claustrophobic, and darkly comic, the novel asks what is left of a person once the curated self collapses and the audience is gone.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kpae2pf0c191n2b8xat0jyn9.jpg",2026,"4.29",400,[1276],{"id":1277,"slug":1278,"name":1279},"01kpae2pevm0pxeghtgq1r7715","caro-claire-burke-o2yn","Caro Claire Burke",[1281,1282,1283,1284,1285,1286],{"id":240,"name":241,"slug":242,"is_fiction":19},{"id":58,"name":59,"slug":60,"is_fiction":19},{"id":54,"name":55,"slug":56,"is_fiction":19},{"id":397,"name":398,"slug":399,"is_fiction":19},{"id":50,"name":51,"slug":52,"is_fiction":19},{"id":587,"name":588,"slug":589,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":251,"complexity":7,"audience":157,"mood":1289,"themes":1290,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[372,411],[164],{"id":523,"slug":524,"title":525,"description":526,"primary_cover_url":527,"cover_blurhash":528,"first_publish_year":529,"community_rating_avg":530,"community_rating_count":34,"page_count":531,"authors":1292,"genres":1294,"series":1300,"enrichment":1303},[1293],{"id":534,"slug":535,"name":536},[1295,1296,1297,1298,1299],{"id":38,"name":39,"slug":40,"is_fiction":19},{"id":201,"name":202,"slug":203,"is_fiction":19},{"id":58,"name":59,"slug":60,"is_fiction":19},{"id":50,"name":51,"slug":52,"is_fiction":19},{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":19},[1301,1302],{"id":545,"slug":546,"name":547,"position":214,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},{"id":549,"slug":550,"name":525,"position":214,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},{"pace":320,"complexity":7,"audience":157,"mood":1304,"themes":1305,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[217,219,553],[555],[]]
