19세기

가스등이 자갈길 위에서 깜빡이고, 인물들은 엄격한 사회 규범, 금지된 열정, 그리고 변혁적인 산업 변화의 세계를 헤쳐 나간다. 런던의 더러운 작업장, 러시아의 도박장, 또는 영국 시골 저택의 응접실 등 이 뛰어난 작품들은 전례 없는 격변의 시대에 인간성을 가장 원초적이고 세련된 모습으로 포착한다.

Worth my money and time, and really well made. I've never seen this quality of summaries on other websites. Very helpful!

Highly recommended!! Fantastic service. Perfect for those that want a little more than a teaser but not all the intricate details of a full audio book.
