War and Peace (pre-reform Russian: Война́ и миръ ; post-reform Russian: Война́ и мир , "Voyná i mir " ] ) is a novel by the Russian author Leo Tolstoy, which is regarded as a central work of world literature and one of Tolstoy's finest literary achievements.
Bottom's Dream (German: "Zettels Traum" or "ZETTEL’S TRAUM" as the author wrote the title) is a novel published in 1970 by West German author Arno Schmidt.
 Schmidt began writing the novel in December 1963 while he and Hans Wollschläger began to translate the works of Edgar Allan Poe into German.
 The novel was inspired by James Joyce's novel "Finnegans Wake", particularly Schmidt's use of columns (his "SpaltenTechnik"), which Schmidt claimed was borrowed from the "Wake".
Sin Pit is a crime novel by American journalist Paul S. Meskil (Jul 2, 1923–Oct 11, 2005), published by Lion Books in 1954.
 It is one of those rare paperback originals that has achieved cult status through a combination of circumstances, including the fact the author wrote only one work of crime fiction, the initial print run was relatively low for paperbacks at the time, the book had only one print run by the original publisher (Lion Books) and, finally, found an audience years later among collectors of 1950s paperback crime novels.
 Sin Pit shares all the above circumstances with another paperback crime novel published a year earlier, in 1953, that similarly achieved cult status — Black Wings Has My Angel by Elliott Chaze, published by Fawcett Gold Medal.
 Both authors were respected journalists their entire lives and wrote only a single crime novel that was never republished until years later, only after gaining an audience among aficionados of pulp fiction.
August Otto Rühle von Lilienstern, born 1780, died 1847.
 Prussian officer, joined Scharnhorst's Academy for Officers in the same class as Carl von Clausewitz.
 Later, they both taught at the Prussian General War School, which would become the Prussian War Academy, and Rühle became Clausewitz' second successor as its director.
 Rühle published many articles, kept official war diaries, and wrote a two-volume "Manual for the Officer for Education in Peace and for Use in Action" ("Handbuch für den Offizier zur Belehrung im Frieden und zum Gebrauch im Felde"), published in Berlin in 1817 and 1818.
 Lilienstern and Clausewitz, teaching at the same school at the time of publication of this manual, were in agreement on many points.
 For example, they agreed that war was political in nature (which was neither a novel nor a controversial idea) and that war was a "Zweikampf."
 (That is, literally a "two-struggle," usually translated into English as "duel," though in fact the imagery and metaphor that Clausewitz pursued was a wrestling match.)
 Clausewitz made these ideas famous in his book On War.
 Their common views on such issues can be traced to the nature of the military intellectual community in Prussia and the common influence of Scharnhorst.
Thoughts for the Time of War and Death (German: "Zeitgemäßes über Krieg und Tod" ) is a set of twin essays written by Sigmund Freud in 1915, six months after the outbreak of World War I.
 The essays express discontent and disillusionment with human nature and human society in the aftermath of the hostilities; and generated much interest among lay readers of Freud.
Room For Love is a chick lit novel by American author Andrea Meyer.
 The book was inspired by an article the author wrote for the "New York Post" and brings together two New York City obsessions: love and real estate.
The Village (Russian: Деревня , "Derévnya " ) is a short novel by the Nobel Prize-winning Russian author Ivan Bunin, written in 1909 and first published in "Sovremenny Mir" journal (St.-P., ##3, 10–11, 1910) under the title "Novelet" (Повесть ).
 "The Village" caused much controversy at the time, though it was highly praised by Maxim Gorky (who from then on regarded the author as the major figure in Russian literature), among others, and is now generally regarded as Bunin's first masterpiece.
 Composed of brief episodes in the Russian provinces at the time of the 1905 Revolution and set in the author's birthplace, it tells the story of two peasant brothers, one a brute drunk, the other a gentler, more sympathetic character.
 Bunin's realistic portrayal of village life jarred with the idealized picture of "unspoiled" peasants which was common in the mainstream Russian literature, and offended many with characters which "sunk so far below the average of intelligence as to be scarcely human."
