A classic of science fiction, Journey to the Center of the Earth is now available in an unabridged, paperback volume in Union Square and Co.'s Signature Editions series. Renowned geologist Professor Liedenbrock sets out on a fantastic adventure through time and place with his 16-year-old nephew: from Iceland's frozen tundra far down into underground prehistoric worlds and back up again through the fires of an erupting volcano, they experience one of the most incredible journeys ever imagined.

Jane Austen's classic novel about heartbreak and second chances, now freshly repackaged for the Union Square & Co. Signature Clothbound Editions line. Eight years ago, Anne Elliot followed the advice of Lady Russell, her only true friend, and broke off her engagement to the dashing young naval officer Frederick Wentworth. When Anne and the now wealthy Captain Wentworth cross paths years later, it is clear that he has neither forgotten--nor forgiven--their past. Can true love survive heartbreak? Who should we listen to in matters of the heart? Filled with Jane Austen's trademark wit, Persuasion is both a delightful romantic comedy and a surprisingly subversive exploration of our need to persuade, and be persuaded by, others.

本書是羅蘭•巴爾特為色伊（Seuil）出版社「永恆的作家」叢書寫的有關他自己的著述，是一部非傳統意義上的自傳體著作。雖然作者一開始就讓我們把這本書當作「出自一位小說人物之口」，但我們還是通過這些文字大體瞭解了他的身世、生活經歷、個人志趣、寫作生涯和學術主張。全書以片斷的書寫方式和按片斷題名的字母順序進行排列的形式，為讀者組織了一部時間錯位、事件淩亂、內在邏輯無序的奇書，力圖以此來解釋言語活動，通過語言的隨意性排列來探尋語言符號的深層寓意。書中還有作者自幼及長的大量珍貴圖片和一些手繪圖供讀者參考。
