Book excerpt: Excerpt from In a Hollow of the Hills, And, Other Tales The three voices rose in a prolonged shout, in which, however, the distinguishing quality of the pleasant voice was sustained. But there was no response from the dark ness beyond. The shouting was repeated after an interval with the same result: the silence and obscurity remained unchanged. Let's get out of this! Said the first speaker angrily. House or no house, man or woman, we're not wanted, and we '11 make nothing waltzing round here.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from In a Hollow of the Hills The same square of light appeared once more, but the horsemen had evidently diverged in the darkness, for it seemed to be in a different direction. But it was more distinct, and as they gazed a shadow appeared upon its radiant surface - the outlined profile of a human face. Then the light suddenly went out and the face vanished with it. It is a window, and there was some one behind it, said the second speaker, emphatically. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of the Argonauts, And, in a Hollow of the Hills: And Other Tales As so much of my writing has dealt with the Argonauts of '49, I propose, by way of introduction, to discourse brie y on an episode of American life as quaint and typical as that of the Greek adventurers whose name I have bor rowed. It is a crusade without a cross, an exodus with out a prophet. It is not a pretty story; I do not know that it is even instructive. It is of a life of which, per haps, the best that can be said is that it exists no longer. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Selected Tales and Sketches written by Nathaniel Hawthorne and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1987-03-03 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The short fiction of a writer who helped to shape the course of American literature. With a determined commitment to the history of his native land, Nathaniel Hawthorne revealed, more incisively than any writer of his generation, the nature of a distinctly American consciousness. The pieces collected here deal with essentially American matters: the Puritan past, the Indians, the Revolution. But Hawthorne was highly - often wickedly - unorthodox in his account of life in early America, and his precisely constructed plots quickly engage the reader's imagination. Written in the 1820s, 30s, and 40s, these works are informed by themes that reappear in Hawthorne's longer works: The Scarlet Letter, The House of the Seven Gables and The Blithedale Romance. And, as Michael J. Colacurcio points out in his excellent introduction, they are themes that are now deeply embedded in the American literary tradition.
Download or read book Maruja the Story of a Mine written by Bret Harte and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-04-25 with total page 928 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maruja, the Story of a Mine: And Other Tales The trail he took led to one of the scant watercourses that issued, half spent, from the car'iada, to fade out utterly on the hot June plain. It was thickly bordered with wil lows and alders, that made an arbored and feasible path through the dense woods and undergrowth. He continued along it as if aimlessly; stopping from time to time to look at different objects in a dull mechanical fashion, as if rather to prolong his useless hours, than from any curious instinct, and to occasionally dip in the unfrequent pools of water the few crusts of bread he had taken from his pocket. Even this appeared to be suggested more by coincidence of material in the bread and water, than from the promptings of hunger. At last he reached a cuplike hollow in the hills lined with wild clover and thick with resinous odors. Here he crept under a manzanita bush and disposed himself to sleep. The act showed he was already familiar with the local habits of his class, who used the unfailing dry starlit nights for their wanderings, and spent the hours of glaring sunshine asleep or resting in some wayside shadow.

Excerpts: "I am afraid this ghost story will bear a very faded aspect when transferred to paper. Whatever effect it had on you, or whatever charm it retains in your memory, is, perhaps, to be attributed to the favorable circumstances under which it was originally told.” (The Ghost of Doctor Harris) "The aspect of the venerable mansion has always affected me like a human countenance, bearing the traces not merely of outward storm and sunshine, but expressive also, of the long lapse of mortal life, and accompanying vicissitudes that have passed within.” (The House of the Seven Gables) American novelist and short story writer Nathaniel Hawthorne's (1804-1864) writing centers on New England, many works featuring moral allegories with a Puritan inspiration. His fiction works are considered to be part of the Romantic movement and, more specifically, Dark romanticism. His themes often centre on the inherent evil and sin of humanity, and his works often have moral messages and deep psychological complexity.
