In a few minutes:
Within 17'000 books are for sure some to find. In any many other languages, too. They got also some books besides in form of mp3's, so that anyone can read with the thumb and listen to a native reader.
~~~ Shelley, Percy Bysshe, 1792-1822
A vibrant writer and seldomly known. He puts fire on the emotions and is - though not the "newest" - quite easy to understand. http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/4800
Click on "Edit" in the left corner and seek for... :
1) THE DAEMON OF THE WORLD (a fragment - Part 1 and Part 2)
2) THE REVOLT OF ISLAM (from 1818)
3) TO MARY -- --.
The poems especially are so full of meaning and rhythmic, that anyone grows with delight deeper into the English language - and Bysshe Shelley has often found having a breath-taking power...
The world is full of free offers.
If someone doesn't like the layout, he or she has just to click into the page, press Ctrl+A, copy the text and paste it into for example the MS word(R) application, change the font and margins.. KHALAS ... the printout on economic black&white brings a readable dossier into the hands.
Great also for study purpose in 2-line-spacing, so that colored notes can be added on the vocabulary,
or on the side of the text, if the margin leaves space on the side.
With the mp3-downloads is the language a big fun...
