Download or read book Broomstraw Ridge written by Betsy Reeder and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-03-27 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this suspenseful story of the late nineteenth century, Joseph Cook upends his life after the murder of his closest friend by a man who escapes justice. Leaving his thirty-year railroad career in mid-stride, he returns to the New River landscape of his Appalachian youth. There he hopes to buy a farm, reunite with what's left of his family, and find peace. An expert in bridge construction, Joseph finds the building of personal bridges surpasses his ability. His goals are further thwarted by unexpected obstacles and diverted by a reunion with a childhood friend who opens doors to pain and possibility. The novel explores the natural longing for peace, home, and family, a quest that ultimately forces Joseph to abandon his planned path and face daunting adversity. In doing so, he learns that justice and love denied can become justice and love delayed but finally won. Letting go of their pursuit may not equate with giving up.

Download or read book Melodrama Unbound written by Christine Gledhill and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 761 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For too long melodrama has been associated with outdated and morally simplistic stereotypes of the Victorian stage; for too long film studies has construed it as a singular domestic genre of familial and emotional crises, either subversively excessive or narrowly focused on the dilemmas of women. Drawing on new scholarship in transnational theatrical, film, and cultural histories, this collection demonstrates that melodrama is a transgeneric mode that has long spoken to fundamental aspects of modern life and feeling. Pointing to melodrama’s roots in the ancient Greek combination of melos and drama, and to medieval Christian iconography focused on the pathos of Christ as suffering human body, the volume highlights the importance to modernity of melodrama as a mode of emotional dramaturgy, the social and aesthetic conditions for which emerged long before the French Revolution. Contributors articulate new ways of thinking about melodrama that underscore its pervasiveness across national cultures and in a variety of genres. They examine how melodrama has traveled to and been transformed in India, China, Japan, and South America, whether through colonial circuits or later, globalization; how melodrama mixes with other modes such as romance, comedy, and realism; and finally how melodrama has modernized the dramatic functions of gender, class, and race by orchestrating vital aesthetic and emotional experiences for diverse audiences.
