At Adagio London, we love reading from the classics to the more relaxing and lighter reads in our myths and legends series.
During the lockdown it has been publicly reported that we read more – for some people it was revisiting books from of old, for others’ it’s books not read before but have always wanted to and for other people it’s books half finished.
But what were we reading and who were the authors?.The Classics were favourites. Amongst these, Jane Austen (Pride & Prejudice, Emma, Sense & Sensibility, etc), Bronte Sisters (Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre, etc), Charles Dickens (Great Expectations, etc), Harper Lee (To Kill A Mocking Bird), F. Scott Fitzgerald (The Great Gatsby), Herman Melville (Moby Dick), Fyodor Dostoevsky (Crime & Punishment), to name but a few.
These authors broke boundaries and challenged our conceptions and perceptions. They wrote books that we still read and enjoy these many years later. Such is our love of these timeless books that all have been turned into films, plays, television series, etc. And many have been translated into other languages widening their interest and appeal.
Our versions of these books are classics in themselves from their Luxury embossed hardback cover, gold leaf page edging, a perfect mix of tradition and the very latest in printing techniques. 19th century quality meets 21st century technology, the ultimate gift for any book lovers collection.
Our myths and legends collection are tales from all corners of the Globe and capture the mystery and drama of ancient legends through all the key stories and folk tales featuring gods, heroes, monsters and animals, as well as common themes such as creation, love, death and courage.
