Download or read book The Brothers K written by David James Duncan and published by Dial Press. This book was released on 2010-07-28 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK Once in a great while a writer comes along who can truly capture the drama and passion of the life of a family. David James Duncan, author of the novel The River Why and the collection River Teeth, is just such a writer. And in The Brothers K he tells a story both striking and in its originality and poignant in its universality. This touching, uplifting novel spans decades of loyalty, anger, regret, and love in the lives of the Chance family. A father whose dreams of glory on a baseball field are shattered by a mill accident. A mother who clings obsessively to religion as a ward against the darkest hour of her past. Four brothers who come of age during the seismic upheavals of the sixties and who each choose their own way to deal with what the world has become. By turns uproariously funny and deeply moving, and beautifully written throughout, The Brothers K is one of the finest chronicles of our lives in many years. Praise for The Brothers K “The pages of The Brothers K sparkle.”—The New York Times Book Review “Duncan is a wonderfully engaging writer.”—Los Angeles Times “This ambitious book succeeds on almost every level and every page.”—USA Today “Duncan’s prose is a blend of lyrical rhapsody, sassy hyperbole and all-American vernacular.”—San Francisco Chronicle “The Brothers K affords the . . . deep pleasures of novels that exhaustively create, and alter, complex worlds. . . . One always senses an enthusiastic and abundantly talented and versatile writer at work.”—The Washington Post Book World “Duncan . . . tells the larger story of an entire popular culture struggling to redefine itself—something he does with the comic excitement and depth of feeling one expects from Tom Robbins.”—Chicago Tribune

Download or read book Duncan written by Kirsten Osbourne and published by Unlimited Dreams Publishing. This book was released on 2023-06-10 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alana McKay is an independent woman in 15th century Scotland who has been raised by her father to do all the things a man would do. After her father tried to arrange a marriage for her with a man she loathed, he set up tournaments in which the winner would marry Alana. Refusing to be anyone’s prize, Alana set out on her gelding in the dead of night with only a small amount of food and her keen sense of survival to keep her alive. When a woman rode onto McClain lands slumped over her horse and sound asleep, Duncan—the future laird—took her into his home to give her refuge. Her intense beauty had him praying she was not yet married and could soon be his wife. When Alana awoke, she was mesmerized by the handsome man who had come to her rescue, but all the rumors about this clan made her wonder if she was in a place she shouldn’t be, but the kindness of the McClains spoke volumes. Marrying within days of meeting, Alana fell in love with her new husband quickly. But what would happen to her sister, whom she’d left behind? And would her love ever be returned?
