Book excerpt: You've heard the term "Sell Your Soul to the Devil." It sounds very rock and roll, right? Wrong! It actually comes from Goethe's Faust--a tragic work about a man who sells his soul. The themes and plot of Faust seems right out of a modern horror novel--if you can understand it! Unlike most archaic translations of Faust, BookCaps puts a fresh spin on Goethe's classic by using language modern readers won't struggle to make sense of. The original English text is also presented in the book, along with a comparable version of both text. We all need refreshers every now and then. Whether you are a student trying to cram for that big final, or someone just trying to understand a book more, BookCaps can help. We are a small, but growing company, and are adding titles every month.
