Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sideways and Backward Am now my besetting sin was a love of books. I am much afflicted in that way yet, never hav ing recovered from the first attack. But pre vions to my inoculation, and quite early in my career, my erratic course gave my mother some very serious apprehensions, and as she looked with an eye of grave disapproval on my evident inclination to make a Thomas-boy of myself, she called me into her presence one day and gave it as her most mournful opinion that I didn't know a book from a hole in the ground, was good for nothing under the sun but to climb trees, wade water, and throw rocks at the boys, and sorely grieved and moved was she that a child of hers should grow up in such complete and utter idiocy. I was somewhat startled at the prospect myself, and when I had perforce given her lecture all the respectful at tention it demanded, I finished extracting the cockleburs from my flaxen locks, stuck my sweet-gum on the round of a chair, retired to the barn loft and laid myself out for some very calm and serious consideration. It was all true, just as she said; I was good for nothing whatever, that I could think of. I didn't know how to sew, didn't want to learn, I couldn't knit, wouldn't cook, ran wild in the woods, Whistled from morning to night, loved horses and dogs, wasn't afraid of ghosts, had warts on my hands, freckles on my nose, sun-burn on my hair, stone bruises on my heels, and there wasn't a boy in all that neighborhood for miles and miles that I hadn't crossed tooth and toe nail with, and come out more or less victorious. As the enumeration grew larger I grew small er, in my own estimation; I had a birds - eye view of the situation; I realized my lost and undone condition, and by the time I had wash ed my complexion unusually clean with a few.

We would recall in closing, too, that it is not play training but real training that each boy and girl gets in u-h Club work. It's real training when you drive a team and plow the land, plant corn or cotton, fertilize and cultivate the crop, harvest and feed or market the product, make some money, put It in the bank, or buy some needed thing for family or personal use. It's real training when a girl grows a garden, gathers and sells her fresh vegetables or fruit, cans the surplus, and learns how to prepare the product for the table and fit it into the family diet. It's real training when a boy raises a litter of pigs to maturity, keeps them free from disease, feeds them for economical growth, keeps a record of costs, learns how to judge pigs, makes an exhibit at the county.

Download or read book House of Leaves written by Mark Z. Danielewski and published by Pantheon. This book was released on 2000-03-07 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A novelistic mosaic that simultaneously reads like a thriller and like a strange, dreamlike excursion into the subconscious.” —The New York Times Years ago, when House of Leaves was first being passed around, it was nothing more than a badly bundled heap of paper, parts of which would occasionally surface on the Internet. No one could have anticipated the small but devoted following this terrifying story would soon command. Starting with an odd assortment of marginalized youth -- musicians, tattoo artists, programmers, strippers, environmentalists, and adrenaline junkies -- the book eventually made its way into the hands of older generations, who not only found themselves in those strangely arranged pages but also discovered a way back into the lives of their estranged children. Now this astonishing novel is made available in book form, complete with the original colored words, vertical footnotes, and second and third appendices. The story remains unchanged, focusing on a young family that moves into a small home on Ash Tree Lane where they discover something is terribly wrong: their house is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside. Of course, neither Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Will Navidson nor his companion Karen Green was prepared to face the consequences of that impossibility, until the day their two little children wandered off and their voices eerily began to return another story -- of creature darkness, of an ever-growing abyss behind a closet door, and of that unholy growl which soon enough would tear through their walls and consume all their dreams.

The basis for the 2004 comedy-drama road movie of the same name starring Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden Church. Sideways is the story of two friends-Miles and Jack-going away together for the last time to steep themselves in everything that makes it good to be young and single: pinot, putting, and prowling bars. In the week before Jack plans to marry, the pair heads out from Los Angeles to the Santa Ynez wine country. For Jack, the tasting tour is Seven Days to D-Day, his final stretch of freedom. For Miles--who has divorced his wife, is facing an uncertain career and has lost his passion for living-the trip is a week long opportunity to evaluate his past, his future and himself.
