Voici le douzième et dernier livre des fables de Jean de La Fontaine. Il est, avec le livre huitième, le plus volumineux, comptant 27 fables . Contrairement à ses premiers livres dont les textes sont courts et vifs, ceux de ce dernier livre sont longs et parfois lourds. On sent que le fabuliste désire passer plusieurs messages aux lecteurs, au premier chef, à l'élite sociale et politique de son milieu. Les animaux continuent de tenir la vedette de ces vers où s'épanouissent les travers des hommes. (de Jean Lambert)

En mettant en scène les animaux, Jean de La Fontaine met en lumière les travers, les fourberies, l'orgueil, l'envie, les désirs, bref les qualités et les caractéristiques sociales des hommes. Chacune des 21 fables qui composent ce cinquième livre des fables de l'auteur ne manquent pas de mordre dans cette nature humaine qui nous définit. (De Jean LAMBERT)

Jean de La Fontaine poursuit son oeuvre pédagogique par la mise en scène des turpitudes et travers des humains. Le fabuliste rafine son écriture, les textes de ce neuvième livre sont plus étendus et le style plus travaillé.Pour la première fois, Jean de La Fontaine s'adresse nommément à un représentant de la noblesse dans un discours adressé à Madame de la Sablière. Ce texte sera repris et complété dans la première fable du livre suivant (dixième): Les deux rats, le Renard et l'Oeuf. (Jean Lambert)

Le Livre huitième des Fables de La Fontaine est le plus volumineux des douze livres qui composent l'oeuvre fabuliste du célèbre écrivain. Celui-ci délaisse d'avantage les animaux dans ce livre, pour mettre en scène l'homme lui-même dans 15 des 27 fables de ce livre. De La Fontaine nous Interpelle: ses fables deviennent plus longues et affichent un écriture plus sophistiquée que dans les livres précédents. Écoutez combien, sous la plume du fabuliste, l'homme est cette bête si curieuse et fascinante. (Jean LAMBERT)

Dans ce livre sixième comme dans tous les autres livres des Fables de La Fontaine, vous serez à même de constater la fine observation des éternels comportements humains transposés dans le monde animal.(Introduction de Jean Lambert)

Ce onzième livre des fables de Jean de La Fontaine est celui qui contient le plus petit nombre de fables: 10. Toutefois, les textes de ces fables sont plus élaborés que ceux des textes des premiers livres du fabuliste. Le message est plus songé et aussi... moins accessible, ce qui pourrait expliquer que ces fables soient moins connues du grand public. (de Jean Lambert)

Crime and Punishment is the second of Fyodor Dostoyevsky's full-length novels following his return from 5 years of exile in Siberia, and is considered the first great novel of his "mature" period of writing. The novel focuses on the mental anguish and moral dilemmas of Rodion Raskolnikov, an impoverished ex-student in St. Petersburg who formulates and executes a plan to kill an unscrupulous pawnbroker for her cash. Raskolnikov, in an attempt to defend his actions, argues that with the pawnbroker's money he can perform good deeds to counterbalance the crime while ridding the world of a vermin, ...

A well-to-do French farm family is destroyed by a flood. The story, thrilling to the very end, is told from the point of view of the family's 70-year-old patriarch. The story speaks of the helplessness of mankind in the face of the forces of nature. (Summary by Karen Merline)

"Through the Gates of the Silver Key," published complete in this issue, is an utterly amazing novelette. It is much more than a mere piece of fiction, for it so far transcends human experiences, and even the wildest dreams of human beings, that the ideas and thoughts set forth in the tale are titanic. One searches the dictionaries in vain for words to describe this brilliant and astounding tale, which for sheer imaginative daring goes beyond anything ever printed before. It is the joint product of two of your most popular authors. - Summary by Weird Tales, July 1934

"Harold Transome is a landowner who goes against his family's political tradition (much to his mother's distress), while Felix Holt is a sincere radical. The setting of the book, the 1832 parliament election, is used to discuss the social problems of that time. A secondary plot involves Esther Lyon, the stepdaughter of a minister who is the real heiress to the Transome estate, with whom both Harold Transome and Felix Holt fall in love. Esther loves poor Felix Holt, but would she choose a comfortable life with Harold Transome?" (Summary by Stav Nisser)
