Download or read book But Nana written by Patricia Brookhouse and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This charming tale explores God in creation and God in the ordinary. It is a wonderful conversation starter between child and adult about the mysteries of our Creator. When I first thought about writing "But Nana" it was because I wanted to share something of the God I had come to experience in my life. A great deal of my understanding stems from my 25 year involvement at the Franciscan International Study Centre in Canterbury and the Franciscan spirituality that I discovered there. Then I began to think of all the grandparents who had watched their children turn their back on the church and consequently their grandchildren missing out on a part of life that for them had been so important. To those grandparents I would like to say, "Don't forget God only has children... no grandchildren and certainly no great grandchildren!"

Book excerpt: 'She was the golden beast, an unconscious force, the very scent of her could bring the world to ruin.' Nana, daughter of a drunk and a laundress, is the Helen of Troy of Paris. A sexually magnetic high-class prostitute and actress, she becomes a celebrity, rapidly conquering society, ruining all men who fall under her spell-especially Count Muffat, Chamberlain to the Empress. Nana herself meets a terrible fate, consumed by her own dissipation and extravagance, just as the disastrous war with Prussia is declared. Nana is the ninth instalment in the twenty volume Rougon-Macquart series. The novel opens in 1867, the year of the World Fair, when Paris, thronged by a cosmopolitan élite, was la Ville Lumière, the glittering setting-and object-of Zola's scathing denunciation of society's hypocrisy and moral corruption. Nana comes to symbolize the Second Empire regime itself in all its excesses; but in the final chapters, the narrator seems to suggest that the coming disaster not so much as a result of the corruption of the Empire, as of rampant female sexuality.

Book excerpt: NANA CHAPTER I At nine o'clock in the evening the body of the house at the Theatres des Varietes was still all but empty. A few individuals, it is true, were sitting quietly waiting in the balcony and stalls, but these were lost, as it were, among the ranges of seats whose coverings of cardinal velvet loomed in the subdued light of the dimly burning luster. A shadow enveloped the great red splash of the curtain, and not a sound came from the stage, the unlit footlights, the scattered desks of the orchestra. It was only high overhead in the third gallery, round the domed ceiling where nude females and children flew in heavens which had turned green in the gaslight, that calls and laughter were audible above a continuous hubbub of voices, and heads in women's and workmen's caps were ranged, row above row, under the wide-vaulted bays with their gilt-surrounding adornments. Every few seconds an attendant would make her appearance, bustling along with tickets in her hand and piloting in front of her a gentleman and a lady, who took their seats, he in his evening dress, she sitting slim and undulant beside him while her eyes wandered slowly round the house. Two young men appeared in the stalls; they kept standing and looked about them. "Didn't I say so, Hector?" cried the elder of the two, a tall fellow with little black mustaches. "We're too early! You might quite well have allowed me to finish my cigar." An attendant was passing.

Book excerpt: Eight-year-old Odessa never expected to come face-to-face with her grandmother in an eight-year-old body! What happens when Odessa is wished back to 1955 by her Nana? It seems that Nana was tired of telling Odessa about the old times and wanted to show her instead. Odessa wakes up in a southern Maryland farmhouse without air conditioning, television, Internet, or telephone. She develops an understanding for both the fun and the work of living on a farm as she chats with the family about the things that surprise her. A day at school with Nana is very different from her own school in 2014. Instead of bright colors, group participation, computers, and modern conveniences, Odessa confronts racism, bullying, and a very different kind of classroom. She also learns that some things never change. People are people no matter when they live.
