Murder on the Orient Express : B1


Collins brings the Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie, to English language learners.

Agatha Christie is the most widely published author of all time and in any language. Now Collins has adapted her famous detective novels for English language learners. These carefully abridged versions are shorter with the language targeted at learners of English.

Poirot is on his way home to London on the famous Simplon Orient Express when a murder is committed. It is clear that no one entered or left the train, which means one of Poirot’s fellow passengers must be guilty – but which one? And why would they have murdered a man they didn’t know?

Soon to be released as a major motion picture with stars including Kenneth Branagh, Johnny Depp, Judi Dench, Penelope Cruz and more

Wuthering Heights - Audiobook


Wuthering Heights, written by Emily Brontë, is a haunting tale of passion, revenge, and unrelenting love set against the windswept moors of Yorkshire. The novel weaves a multi-generational story of the intense, destructive relationship between Heathcliff, an orphan taken in by the Earnshaw family, and Catherine Earnshaw, the spirited daughter of the house. Their love defies societal norms and transcends morality, but it is marred by cruelty, betrayal, and an insatiable longing that ultimately consumes them.

Told through the narrative of a tenant named Mr. Lockwood and the housekeeper Nelly Dean, the story explores the dark, intertwined fates of the Earnshaws and their neighbors, the Lintons. Themes of class conflict, the destructive nature of vengeance, and the supernatural thread of eternal love dominate the plot. The bleak, untamed landscapes mirror the wild emotions of the characters, creating a gothic masterpiece that defies conventional romance and delves deep into the complexities of human nature.

A tale of enduring love and tragic consequences, Wuthering Heights challenges readers to confront the fine line between passion and obsession, making it one of the most memorable works in English literature.
