Елчиев Варис Metamorphosis: a story of one night
On December 31, when only some hours were left to the New Year the police patrols who were on night shift took anybody whom they doubted to the police department. The people who were caught by the police belonged to different age, sex and groups. A woman who had been forgotten by her relatives... A wan who got the wound of love.. Another man who couldn't find his place in life... A young guy who was the victim of false love. A young girl who was deceived for her naivety. Though they belong to different age, to different groups of the society, there is one thing that unites them: GRIEF... All of them are chased by the society, but none of them broke the law. Different from the others they are sure that a new truth is the child of the old lie. And they made up mind to gather all sorrowful people around them. Let them share their grief which they can't bear when they are lonely.

Kafka Franz Metamorphosis
"A book must be an ice-axe to break the seas frozen inside our soul." Franz Kafka Metamorphosis tells the tale of Gregor Samsa, a young salesman, who wakes up one day to find he has turned into "a kind of giant bug". Samsa has been a model of virtue for years, single- handedly supporting his parents and sister, but suddenly he finds himself an outcast in his own home, facing a world in which he no longer has a place. Both harrowing and humorous, Metamorphosis is a strange, subtle and moving story which everyone should read.

Pike Christopher The Midnight Club
Rotterham Home was a hospice for young people, a place where teenagers with terminal illnesses went to die. Nobody who checked in ever checked out. It was a place of pain and sorrow, but also, remarkably, a place of humor and adventure. At the hospice was a group of five young men and women who called themselves the Midnight Club. Every night at twelve they met and told each other stories-tales of intrigue and horror, of life and death. True stories, made-up stories, and stories that fell somewhere in between. But one night, in the middle of a particularly scary story, these five people make a pact with each other that says that the first one of them who dies is to make every effort to contact the others-from beyond the grave. Then one of them does die. And the story begins. The most wonderful story. The most horrible.

Kafka Franz Metamorphosis and Other Stories
A collection of Kafka's greatest short fiction, translated by Michael Hofmann Kafka's masterpiece of unease and black humour, Metamorphosis, the story of an ordinary man transformed into an insect, is brought together in this collection with the rest of his works that he thought worthy of publication. It includes Contemplation, a collection of his earlier short studies; The Judgement, written in a single night of frenzied creativity; The Stoker, the first chapter of a novel set in America; and an eyewitness account of an air display. Together, these stories, fragments and miniature gems reveal the breadth of his vision, his sense of the absurd, and above all his acute, uncanny wit.

Ahlberg Allan, Ahlberg Janet Funnybones
This is how the story begins. On a dark dark hill there was a dark dark town. In the dark dark town there was a dark dark street . . . This new edition of the classic story includes an accompanying CD, featuring the story read by acclaimed comic actor Stephen Mangan. Janet and Allan's frightfully funny Hallowe'en classic tells the story of three skeletons - a big skeleton, a little skeleton and a dog skeleton - who venture out of their cellar one night to find someone to scare, only to find that everyone is in bed. Who will they scare now?!
