Download or read book Atlas Shrugged written by Ayn Rand and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2005-04-21 with total page 1244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peopled by larger-than-life heroes and villains, charged with towering questions of good and evil, Atlas Shrugged is Ayn Rand’s magnum opus: a philosophical revolution told in the form of an action thriller—nominated as one of America’s best-loved novels by PBS’s The Great American Read. Who is John Galt? When he says that he will stop the motor of the world, is he a destroyer or a liberator? Why does he have to fight his battles not against his enemies but against those who need him most? Why does he fight his hardest battle against the woman he loves? You will know the answer to these questions when you discover the reason behind the baffling events that play havoc with the lives of the amazing men and women in this book. You will discover why a productive genius becomes a worthless playboy...why a great steel industrialist is working for his own destruction...why a composer gives up his career on the night of his triumph...why a beautiful woman who runs a transcontinental railroad falls in love with the man she has sworn to kill. Atlas Shrugged, a modern classic and Rand’s most extensive statement of Objectivism—her groundbreaking philosophy—offers the reader the spectacle of human greatness, depicted with all the poetry and power of one of the twentieth century’s leading artists.
Download or read book Dagny written by Mary Kay Norseng and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A love goddess who was imprisoned and betrayed by love, a wife who returned again and again to her childhood home, a mother who left her children, a writer who preferred silence, Dagny Juel Przybyszewska existed in a borderland between myth and reality. Born into an upper-class Norwegian family in 1867, she died at the age of thirty-three, estranged from everyone and everything she had known, shot by a neurotic young man in a hotel room in Tiflis near the Black Sea. He wrote, “She was not of this world, she was far too ethereal for anyone to understand her true nature.” Dagny Juel was one of four beautiful and talented daughters of a prominent doctor who was attendant physician to the king of Sweden. In 1893 she went to Berlin to study piano, and soon she became the central figure in an avant-garde group of writers, painters, and patrons of the arts known as Zum schwarzen Ferkel (“The Black Piglet). She was painted by Edvard Munch and was the model for the destructive woman of many of Strindberg’s writings. In the Berlin circle, she met and married the brilliant, mercurial Polish writer Stanislaw Przybyszewski. But Dagny was more than the mysterious and provocative muse of two of the major European cultural centers, Berlin and Krakow. She herself wrote revolutionary plays and poetry and acted as cultural agent for Scandinavian artists on the Continent. During her lifetime her plays and poems were published in Norwegian, Polish, and Czech, and a collection of her plays came out in Norway as recently as 1978. At once an engrossing, elegantly narrated biography and a work of meticulous scholarship, Mary Kay Norseng’s book is the first full-length study in English to examine Dagny’s writings and to explore her relationships. Attempting to sort fact from the sensationalized fiction that has grown up around this remarkable woman, Norseng has consulted all available letters and memoirs of Dagny, her husband, her family, and her acquaintances, as well as Dagny’s own writings and the wealth of material written about her. The book resulting from this intensive study will change the way the world has viewed Dagny Przybyszewska, while it provides new insights into the literary and artistic environment of fin-de-siecle Europe.

Download or read book Highway to the Sky written by Lola Reid Allin and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2024-09-17 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With females making up just 5% of the world’s pilots, this memoir crosses genres to combine aviation history, the author’s journey from unwanted child to successful pilot, and the feminist experience, and will appeal to multiple aviation communities. “Don’t be silly! Girls can’t fly,” seven-year-old Lola’s father admonishes her as they fly across Canada on a commercial flight in 1962. She is crushed—but decides he must be right. She’s only ever seen male pilots, after all. Highway to the Sky begins during the empty zone of women in aviation, a three-decade drought following WWII when men reclaimed the jobs that had been performed by women during the war and forced women back to diapers and dishes, where they “belonged.” Despite Lola’s childhood desire to avoid the straitjacket of traditional female roles and become a pilot, her desperate need for unconditional affection after a lonesome childhood sways her determination. At age twenty, she leaps into marriage and motherhood. Four years, one toxic relationship, and one private pilot license later, she leaves her husband, even though she knows she’ll be censured by friends, family, and 1970s society at large. Lola’s head-on battle with tradition continues as the lone female pilot in her advanced flight training program and on the job as a flight instructor, bush pilot, charter pilot, and commuter airline pilot between 1979 and 1993. Flying is challenging at times, yes—but her true obstacles are the hostility, sabotage, and discrimination she faces in her industry. She perseveres, however. Ultimately, flying is what gives her the courage to regain control of her life—and helps her find personal happiness.
