Román Taipi (1846) je autobiografickým vyrozprávaním udalostí, ktoré zažil po tom, ako s priateľom dezertoval z veľrybárskej lode. Na Markézskom ostrove prežil štyri mesiace. Opis jeho ďalších dobrodružstiev pokračuje v románe Omu (1847).

Anne, an eleven year old orphan, is sent by mistake to live with a lonely, middle-aged brother and sister on a Prince Edward Island farm and proceeds to make an indelible impression on everyone around her.

New adventures lie ahead as Anne Shirley packs her bags, waves good-bye to childhood, and heads for Redmond College. With old friend Prissy Grant waiting in the bustling city of Kingsport and frivolous new pal Philippa Gordon at her side, Anne tucks her memories of rural Avonlea away and discovers life on her own terms, filled with surprises...including a marriage proposal from the worst fellow imaginable, the sale of her very first story, and a tragedy that teaches her a painful lesson. But tears turn to laughter when Anne and her friends move into an old cottage and an ornery black cat steals her heart. Little does Anne know that handsome Gilbert Blythe wants to win her heart, too. Suddenly Anne must decide if she's ready for love...

At sixteen Anne is grown up. . . almost. Her gray eyes shine like evening stars, but her red hair is still as peppery as her temper. In the years since she arrived at Green Gables as a freckle-faced orphan, she has earned the love of the people of Avonlea and a reputation for getting into scrapes. But when Anne begins her job as the new schoolteacher, the real test of her character begins. Along with teaching the three Rs, she is learning how complicated life can be when she meddles in someone else's romance, finds two new orphans at Green Gables, and wonders about the strange behavior of the very handsome Gilbert Blythe. As Anne enters womanhood, her adventures touch the heart and the funny bone.

Mladý milionár Rex Walton dostane od vydierača Kupieho list, aby vo vlastnom záujme upustil od sobáša s krásnou Donnou Colemanovou, lebo ak nie, pride o svoj milión libier. Pol hodiny pred sobášom Waiton a jeho milión zmizne – a toto je predzvesť mnohých záhadných udalostí, až kým inšpektor Sepping, inak Waltonov priateľ, smutne presláveného Kupieho neodhalí. Celý príbeh, napísaný Wallaceovým nenapodobniteľným štýlom, speje na konci k rozuzleniu, ktoré je pre tohto majstra napätia také príznačné.

When beautiful Scarlett O'Hara learns that Ashley Wilkes, the man she loves, is going to marry another woman, her broken heart seems far worse than the tragedies of the Civil War. However, one man knows her secret, and he wants her for himself.

This novel was placed number 16 in the best novels of the XXth century, and is considered a real american classic.

There, his more sophisticated colleagues introduce him to alcohol and prostitutes, something he starts to enjoy...
