The job was too good. There had to be a problem - and there was.

John Duncan was an honest man, but he needed money. He had children to look after. He was ready to do anything, and his bosses knew it.

They gave him the job because he couldn't say no; he couldn't afford to be honest. And the job was like a poison inside him. It changed him and blinded him, so that he couldn't see the real poison - until it was too late.

Frankenstein (v. 1.0)

Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus is a novel written by Mary Shelley. Shelley started writing the story when she was eighteen and the novel was published when she was nineteen. The first edition was published anonymously in London in 1818. Shelley's name appears on the second edition, published in France.

Through research it can be determined the many influences the author was under during the creation of the novel. She had traveled the region in which the story takes place, and the topics of galvanism and such other occult ideas were themes of conversation among her companions. Frankenstein is infused with some elements of the Gothic novel and the Romantic movement, and is also considered to be one of the earliest examples of science fiction. It was also a warning against the expansion of modern man in the Industrial Revolution, alluded to in the novel's subtitle, The Modern Prometheus. The story has had an influence across literature and popular culture and spawned a complete genre of horror stories and films.

The Picture of Dorian Gray (v. 1.0)

(обновлено 2011-05-13)

The Picture of Dorian Gray is the only published novel by Oscar Wilde, appearing as the lead story in Lippincott's Monthly Magazine  on 20 June 1890, printed as the July 1890 issue of this magazine.  Wilde later revised this edition, making several alterations, and adding new chapters; the amended version was published by Ward, Lock, and Company in April 1891.  The title is sometimes rendered incorrectly as The Portrait of Dorian Gray.

The novel tells of a young man named Dorian Gray, the subject of a painting by artist Basil Hallward. Basil is impressed by Dorian's beauty and becomes infatuated with him, believing his beauty is responsible for a new mode in his art. Dorian meets Lord Henry Wotton, a friend of Basil's, and becomes enthralled by Lord Henry's world view. Espousing a new hedonism, Lord Henry suggests the only things worth pursuing in life are beauty and fulfillment of the senses. Realizing that one day his beauty will fade, Dorian (whimsically) expresses a desire to sell his soul to ensure the portrait Basil has painted would age rather than himself. Dorian's wish is fulfilled, plunging him into debauched acts. The portrait serves as a reminder of the effect each act has upon his soul, with each sin displayed as a disfigurement of his form, or through a sign of aging.

Open Prayer Book (v. 1.4)

Amimetic опубликовал приложение 2011-05-12
(обновлено 2011-05-12)

Open Prayer Book collects together prayers and liturgies from across the web and allows you to view them full screen on your Android device (as well as schedule daily reminders).

It has several key advantages over simply using the web browser in your phone:

★ It contains a curated collection of prayers and liturgies for easy access.
★ You can schedule reminders.
★ You view the prayers on full screen.
★ If you find or create a prayer resource you can share it with other users of Open Prayer Book.

How to use Open Prayer Book

The first thing you'll want to do is add some prayers/liturgies. You can do this by going to the "Prayer Book" tab and hitting the menu button. Either select "Add Liturgies from list" to choose from curated collection of liturgies or select "Add custom liturgy" to add your own liturgy.

Once you've added some liturgies, just tap on it to open it in the full screen viewer.

Advanced features

By holding down on a liturgy to bring up the context menu you can schedule a reminder (which will use the Android notification system to remind you about the liturgy/prayer).

In addition you can edit it, submit it for possible inclusion in the next update of Open Prayer Book or delete it.

I will release source code (once I've tidied it up a bit!) as it could be of use if you are interested in making a custom version of the app for a specific set of resources.

NB Many liturgies/prayers work best in landscape mode (or perhaps on a tablet) so you might want to rotate your phone at this point.
