Download or read book Dragon Seed written by Pearl S. Buck and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times–bestselling historical novel about the Japanese invasion of Nanking from the author of The Good Earth. Farmer Liang Tan knows only a quiet, traditional life in his remote Chinese farming community. When news filters in that Japanese forces are invading the country, he and his fellow villagers believe that if they behave decently to the Japanese soldiers, the civilians might remain undisturbed. They’re in for a shock, as the attackers lay waste to the country and install a puppet government designed to systematically carry out Japanese interests. In response, the Chinese farmers and their families form a resistance—which not only carries grave risk, but also breaks their vow of nonviolence, leading them to wonder if they’re any different than their enemy. Later adapted into a film featuring Katharine Hepburn, Dragon Seed is a brilliant and unflinching look at the horrors of war. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Pearl S. Buck including rare images from the author’s estate.

Download or read book What I Have Learned written by Earle F. Zeigler and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-09-05 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What I Have Learned... (or Nonagenarian Natterings) (Trafford, 2012) might be considered a sequel to my Through the Eyes of a Concerned Liberal published in 2004. This sequel explains what I believe about various aspects of life and living (i.e., why I believe what I do; and what I sought to do about it all.) It could prove interesting to anyone facing the same or similar life problems in this crazy world that is becoming more scary as I write these words. What I say here should be easily intelligible-if not agreeable! -to any reasonably intelligent, concerned member of North American society. My historical interpretation laced with philosophical under girding led me to a belief that human civilization must be accepted as an adventure. How could it be regarded otherwise? As a young adult, I entered the realm of life assessment by seeking a purpose for my life. I accepted the philosophical stance known as pragmatism at this point, while seeking to solidify my acceptance of political and social liberalism as guidance throughout my life. I soon discovered the ever-present need to make defensible ethical decisions based on a wise choice of values. This matter was confounded by what I gradually saw as the ever-increasing need to counteract Americas value orientation as the world moves along in the 21st century. To do this I had to be sure that I was on the right track. I did this by finding myself once again through self-evaluation of my philosophic and socio-political stances. Hence, I encourage all North Americans to re-examine their values while embracing a modified form of postmodernism. Finally, I can only hope that America will come to its senses. America must somehow live up to the values it so glibly espouses

Download or read book See What I Have Done written by Sarah Schmidt and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “One of America’s most notorious murder cases inspires this feverish debut” novel that goes inside the mind of Lizzie Borden (The Guardian). On the morning of August 4, 1892, Lizzie Borden calls out to her maid: Someone’s killed Father. The brutal ax-murder of Andrew and Abby Borden in their home in Fall River, Massachusetts, leaves little evidence and many unanswered questions. In this riveting debut novel, Sarah Schmidt reimagines the day of the infamous murders as an intimate story of a family devoid of love. While neighbors struggle to understand why anyone would want to harm the respected Bordens, those close to the family have a different tale to tell―of a father with an explosive temper, a spiteful stepmother, and two spinster sisters desperate for their independence. As the police search for clues, Lizzie’s memories of that morning flash in scattered fragments. Had she been in the barn or the pear arbor to escape the stifling heat of the house? When did she last speak to her stepmother? Were they really gone and would everything be better now? Shifting among the perspectives of the unreliable Lizzie, her older sister Emma, the housemaid Bridget, and the enigmatic stranger Benjamin, the events of that fateful day are slowly revealed through a high-wire feat of storytelling.
