These words seemed to be the only ones registering in my mind." English- born Morrison was in his early 30s, a sportsman of some repute. Always fit. Always healthy. Now he had to face an uncertain future. The title of his book - Please Sir, Can I Have My Ball Back? - sums up how he took to the battle: with courage and humour. Morrison tells how he came to realise that there is always someone worse off than yourself and how sunshine, friends and just being alive are more important than material things. Morrison is now married and is back playing sports, working as a cargo manager for South African Airways and broadcasting sport for Perth Radio 6PR. His life is happy in the extreme and while he will never get his ball back, he says he's firing beautifully on one!

Download or read book Mike written by P. G. Wodehouse and published by Standard Ebooks. This book was released on 2022-07-04T23:45:12Z with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mike Jackson is the youngest son of a family of excellent cricket players and the most promising batsman of them all. At Wrykyn, the public school his elder brothers once attended, his desire to prove himself as a cricketer is challenged by his apathy for studying and his penchant for mischief. In the second half of the novel, his poor academics result in his being sent to Sedleigh, where he immediately befriends Psmith, an eccentric monocle-wearing student in a similar situation. Together they navigate the social waters of a school that neither one of them wants to attend. Mike was one of P. G. Wodehouse’s earlier novels, and one of his personal favorites. In a preface to a later edition, he stated that the school setting allowed Psmith’s “bland clashings with Authority” to truly shine. The cricket scenes are memorable and exciting, but the meat of the story is in Mike and Psmith’s school escapades. Mike was originally published in The Captain magazine in two parts, Jackson Junior (published in 1953 as Mike at Wrykyn), and The Lost Lambs (also published later as Enter Psmith in 1935 and Mike and Psmith in 1953). This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

Download or read book Volpone Or the Fox written by Ben Jonson and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the most thoroughly investigated edition of Volpone to date, based on a wider collation of the 1607 quarto and 1616 folio versions than was previously possible. It calls into question several accepted textual conclusions. The introduction sets Volpone in the context of Jonson’s career at the time of writing and introduces new material on its relation to the Reynard beast epic and the commedia dell’ arte. Ambiguities in the play are discussed with reference to two Renaissance perversions of the myth of the Golden Age. Particular attention is paid to the rhythmic effects of the play in performance, especially interweavings of the main plot and subplot. Fresh suggestions are made about the play’s opening and its controversial conclusion in the light of experiments that have been made in performance since Volpone ’s stage revival in 1921. The modernized text is accompanied by full commentary, notes and illustrations. The appendices include a discussion by John Cutts of the original music, passages translated from the original sources and analogues, and a full record of the play’s modern stage history, its many adaptations, and its transformations into opera, musical comedy, film and television.
