Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linked by an unlikely accident, four strangers characters grapple with loneliness, memory, and the mysteries of art. Ray Eccles is a man who dislikes unpredictability and the messiness of social interaction, to such extent that his co-workers’ habit of gathering around the Xerox machine it’s his job to run makes even that regular task unbearable. When a misunderstanding leads to unexpected time off from work, Ray takes a day trip to nearby East Beach on what happens to be his fortieth birthday. As he gazes at the sea, a distant woman turns to face him—and a seagull falls from the sky, knocking him unconscious. He awakens compelled to paint her image, using whatever materials come to hand: jam, ketchup, even the walls of his home. Enter George and Grace Zoob, collectors of Outsider Art, whose endorsement rockets Ray to fame in the art world and beyond. Soon even small-town newspapers are covering his work—which is how Jennifer, the woman on the beach, discovers she’s the sole subject of the paintings that have set the world on fire, leading her to wonder if a man she’s never met is the only person who has ever really seen her. Lyrical, elegant and quietly profound, Harriet Paige’s Man With a Seagull on His Head captures the small, shared moments where our lives overlap, making artistry out of the everyday.

Download or read book When the King Loses His Head and Other Stories written by Leonid Andreyev and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-05-19 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the King Loses His Head, and other stories is Leonid Andreyev's story of the French Revolution. Considered the father of Expressionism in Russian literature, Leonid Andreyev is regarded as one of the most talented and prolific representatives of the Silver Age period. His work was extensively translated in book form. To live through four different phases of Russian history was the fate of Andreyev. Each of these phases has contributed to the shaping of his art. Because of the cumulative portrayals of the weird and the horrible, Andreyev has been called the Russian Edgar Allan Poe. During the 1914-1929 period, America was eager for anything similar to Edgar Allan Poe. As Poe's Russian equivalent, translations of Andreyev's work found a ready audience in the English-speaking world.

But it turned out that job was an interview for an even bigger heist. A dangerous man wants Wilson to get him something more valuable than a painting. Problem is Wilson only has a week.
