Book excerpt: Miss Lydia Hamilton is desperate. She needs to secure a marriage to a wealthy gentleman, and she needs to do it fast. Enlisting the help of two brothers, she kidnaps the unwitting Lord Quinton. Under ordinary circumstances, she would never force a gentleman to marry her, but these aren't ordinary circumstances. Her family needs money. And fast. Guy Milton, the Earl of Quinton, is not happy. It's extremely bad luck to be kidnapped, especially in the middle of the night while he is supposed to be sound asleep in his bed. Now doom is imminent. His kidnappers are going to kill him. He just knows it. But instead of killing him, he is forced to marry Lydia. While one would think this would come as a welcome relief, such isn't the case. Marriage under force at midnight to a lady with two redheaded brothers means bad luck. To make matters worse, after the wedding, they hurry him off to a country estate full of so much bad luck that he's sure this is where he'll die. When Lydia decided to kidnap Lord Quinton, she thought her biggest problem would be convincing him to get her with child. She didn't think she'd have to convince him that he'll live long enough to survive the task. This is a romantic comedy with a superstitious hero, a heroine who needs money, and an estate with a classic gothic feel to it.

Download or read book Midnight s Children written by Salman Rushdie and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2010-12-31 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Booker prize and twice winner of the Booker of Bookers, Midnight's Children is "one of the most important books to come out of the English-speaking world in this generation" (New York Review of Books). Reissued for the 40th anniversary of the original publication--with a new introduction from the author--Salman Rushdie's widely acclaimed novel is a masterpiece in literature. Saleem Sinai is born at the stroke of midnight on August 15, 1947, the very moment of India’s independence. Greeted by fireworks displays, cheering crowds, and Prime Minister Nehru himself, Saleem grows up to learn the ominous consequences of this coincidence. His every act is mirrored and magnified in events that sway the course of national affairs; his health and well-being are inextricably bound to those of his nation; his life is inseparable, at times indistinguishable, from the history of his country. Perhaps most remarkable are the telepathic powers linking him with India’s 1,000 other “midnight’s children,” all born in that initial hour and endowed with magical gifts. This novel is at once a fascinating family saga and an astonishing evocation of a vast land and its people–a brilliant incarnation of the universal human comedy. Midnight’s Children stands apart as both an epochal work of fiction and a brilliant performance by one of the great literary voices of our time.
