Ivanhoe, a trusted ally of Richard-The-Lion-Hearted, returns from the Crusades to reclaim the inheritance his father denied him. He defends Rebecca, a vibrant, beautiful Jewish woman, against a charge of witchcraft - but it is Lady Rowena who is his true love. What happens when he teams up with Robin Hood, brings chivalrous romance to high adventure. David Warner, who performs this version, is an accomplished award winning actor who has appeared in many films and TV including Straw Dogs, Time after Time, Time Bandits and The Man With Two Brains. He won an Emmy for his appearance in Masada.

Perhaps the finest novel of nineteenth century England, Bleak House embodies artful narrative, an engaging cast of characters, biting satire, and a detailed depiction of Victorian society. This is all brought to life by Paul Scofield, one of Britain's most distinguished actors. He won an Academy Award for his portral of Sir thomas more in A Man for All Seasons, a role he originated on stage. Dickens pursues two great themes: the murky institutional fog that darkens and cripples all of England, symbolized by the endless litigation of the Jarndyce v. Jarndyce case in the High Court of Chancery. The story that carries these themes takes the form of a compelling mystery, a romantic tangle of trails followed by three vivid sleuths. A mystery wrapped in social commentary makes Bleak House a story well worth investigating.

Gulliver's Travels the quintessential political satire is also a great young person's story about the large, the small, and the uncivilized. Jonathon Swift, a reverend, wrote this book to attack the British government, and ended up with a hugely fanciful voyage of Gulliver. A man set adrift (like Odysseus), starts with Lilliputians, and ends with horses who behave as humans. This timeless story is performed by the inimitable Joel Gray who brings his style to bear.
