Connell Guides

Connell Guides Clear,concise,compelling! The world's best and most intelligent literary companions and all you need to know about literature in one concise volume.

Check us out at www.connellguides.com Connell Guides are more than just guides to reading the great works of literature, they are great reads themsleves – scholarly, yet approachable and entertaining. Each book brings to life a single work of literature and provides an intelligent, illuminating discussion by an academic or a critic at the very top of his or her field, writers with passion and some

thing to say. They put forward, clearly and concisely (but without losing any subtlety of thought), an authoritative and compelling interpretation of what a work is about; what it tells us about the world and human nature, and why it has endured. They are concerned with real education.

What do you reckon Alice’s sister was reading at the beginning of ‘Alice in Wonderland’?

We’re told the book had “no pictures or conversations”, which sounds suspiciously like the morally instructive children’s books Victorians loved - full of righteous lessons and very little fun.

Others think it might have been a serious history book, or even a novel for adults. Whatever it was, Alice clearly preferred something a little more curious.

The one date that every UK school child has drummed into their brain...the year William the Conqueror beat Harold Godwinson at the battle of Hastings...956 years ago to this day - the 14th October 1066.

Roald Dahl reckons that's a pretty useless fact, but if you are interested in how French Wills got his namesake take a look at our Anglo-Norman England Guide. It covers everything from the Anglo-Saxons and the Norman Conquest, to the reigns of King Stephen and Henry II, plus a bit of Thomas Becket - yipee!
