Did actually just have a check on remaining texts since the new igcse came out. Seems like the four A texts are A Passage, Touching the Void, Climate Change, Greenpeace.

This explains the recent changes in the iGCSE English. http://qualifications.pearson.com/content/dam/pdf/International%20GCSE/English%20Language%20A/2011/Specification%20and%20sample%20assessments/English_Language_A_Changes_Explained1.pdf

Greenpeace is available in the Anthology.
http://qualifications.pearson.com/content/dam/pdf/International%20GCSE/English%20Language%20A/2011/Specification%20and%20sample%20assessments/UG026701%20International%20GCSE%20Anthology%20-%20English%20Lang%20(spec%20A)%20English%20Lit%20Issue%202%20for%20web_040413.pdf

As for your second question, yes. For foreign students, as far as I know, it's exactly the same - otherwise I guess it would mention somewhere that it's different. Read through the Specification for all the details.
