Joseph Conrad was a Polish-British writer regarded as one of the greatest novelists to write in the English language. These works are unique in Conrads oeuvre in being openly autobiographical - but in scope and literary form, they differ widely. In The Mirror of the Sea Conrad explores his vast knowledge of the sea in an era when the sailing ship gave way, after thousands of years, to steam. A Personal Record is Conrads account of himself, his cultural background, and the central motives in his life as a seaman and a writer separated from the country where he was born

The first three volumes of Anthony Powell's remarkable A dance to the Music of Time sequence: A Question of Upbringing; A Buyer's Market; The Acceptance World • Anthony Powell's brilliant twelve-novel sequence chronicles the lives of over three hundred characters, and is a unique evocation of life in twentieth-century England. It is unrivalled for its scope, its humour and the enormous pleasure it has given to generations • These first three novels in the sequence follow Nicholas Jenkins, Kenneth Widmerpool and others, as they negotiate the intellectual, cultural and social hurdles which stand between them and the 'Acceptance World'

The second book in Jean Plaidy's epic Plantagenet series • News of Thomas a Becket's martyrdom has spread throughout Christendom and the blame is laid at the feet of Henry Plantagenet, King of England. Two years later, with Becket canonised, Henry's position is precarious: punished at the Pope's insistence for his part in Becket's death, he now also has an enemy in his Queen, Eleanor of Aquitaine, after her discovery of his longstanding infidelity with Rosamund Clifford. Eleanor is determined to seek vengeance, so, with King Philip of France, she encourages her sons to conspire, both against their father and each other • Much embattled, the old eagle Henry struggles to fend off both rebellion and the plots of his aggressively circling offspring

The Oldest Member knows everything that has ever happened on the golf course - and a great deal more besides • Take the story of Cuthbert, for instance. He's helplessly in love with Adeline, but what use are his holes-in-one when she's in thrall to Culture and prefers rising young writers to winners of the French Open? But enter a Great Russian Novelist with a strange passion, and Cuthbert's prospects are transformed. Then look at what happens to young Mitchell Holmes, who misses short putts because of the uproar of the butterflies in the adjoining meadows. His career seems on the skids - but can golf redeem it? • The kindly but shrewd gaze of the Oldest Member picks out some of the funniest stories Wodehouse ever wrote
