Download or read book Trying to Save Piggy Sneed written by John Irving and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-02-02 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A commemorative hardcover edition of the only collection ever published of the celebrated novelist's shorter works. Here is a treat for devoted fans of John Irving. First published twenty years ago, Trying to Save Piggy Sneed contains a dozen short works by the author, beginning with three memoirs. The longest of the memoirs is "The Imaginary Girlfriend," his candid account of his twin careers in writing and wrestling, which, as the Denver Post observed, is filled "with anecdotes that are every bit as hilarious as the antics in his novels . . . [and] combines the lessons of both obsessions." The middle portion of the book is fiction. Over a career that spans thirteen novels, these are the six stories that Mr. Irving considers finished. Among them is "Interior Space," for which he won the O. Henry Award. In the third and final section are three homages: one to Günter Grass and two to Charles Dickens. To each of the twelve pieces, he has contributed author's notes, which provide some perspective on the circumstances surrounding the writing of each piece. For readers who prefer a hardcover, this commemorative edition is a book to treasure. For new readers, it is a perfect introduction to the author of works as moving and mischievous as The World According to Garp,A Prayer for Owen Meany, and In One Person. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in fiction—novels, novellas, political and medical thrillers, comedy, satire, historical fiction, romance, erotic and love stories, mystery, classic literature, folklore and mythology, literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, Cather, and much more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Christmas Carol" is a classic novella written by Charles Dickens and first published in 1843. The story is set in Victorian England and revolves around the character of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly and heartless old man who despises the Christmas season and everything associated with it. On Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his former business partner, Jacob Marley, who warns him of the consequences of his selfishness and greed. Throughout the night, Scrooge is then visited by three spirits: the Ghost of Christmas Past, the Ghost of Christmas Present, and the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come (or Future). These apparitions take Scrooge on a journey through time, showing him his own past, the joy of Christmas in the present, and the grim future that awaits him if he doesn't change his ways. Through these experiences, Scrooge undergoes a profound transformation, ultimately rediscovering the true spirit of Christmas and learning the importance of kindness, generosity, and compassion. Charles Dickens, the author of "A Christmas Carol," was a renowned English novelist of the 19th century.

His literary works often depicted the stark contrast between the privileged and the impoverished, shedding light on the injustices and inequalities of the time. Throughout his career, Dickens produced numerous classic novels, including "Oliver Twist," "Great Expectations," "David Copperfield," and "A Tale of Two Cities." He used his storytelling to advocate for social reform and is regarded as one of the greatest novelists in the English language. Dickens' works continue to be widely read and adapted into various forms of media, making him a lasting and influential figure in the world of literature. A Christmas Carol for English Students A1.
