Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kelly Frost, a textiles conservator, is invited to the Massachusetts coastal town of Fairhaven to restore the centuries-old Mariner's Compass quilt. But there is one stipulation: she must live and work in Grey House, a former whaling captain's home, where the quilt is stored. There she meets Tom Silva, the caretaker of Grey House, whose heart seems as hard as the rocky Massachusetts coastline. Over the long-lit months as Kelly works to restore the quilt, she is buoyed by occasional afternoon visits from Tom and other Fairhaven town members, and is drawn into their lives. And each night, as she reads stories in a daily journal penned by Mary Grey, she learns details about her newfound community members that help her see that their lives are as vivid and interwoven as the quilt pieces she is working to restore. But, when Kelly discovers a truth about Tom's heritage hidden in the journal, she must decide if keeping the past to herself is the only way to ensure the hope of a future with Tom.
Download or read book Tempests after Shakespeare written by C. Zabus and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-30 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tempests After Shakespeare shows how the 'rewriting' of Shakespeare's play serves as an interpretative grid through which to read three movements - postcoloniality, postpatriarchy, and postmodernism - via the Tempest characters of Caliban, Miranda/Sycorax and Prospero, as they vie for the ownership of meaning at the end of the twentieth century. Covering texts in three languages, from four continents and in the last four decades, this study imaginatively explores the collapse of empire and the emergence of independent nation-states; the advent of feminism and other sexual liberation movements that challenged patriarchy; and the varied critiques of representation that make up the 'postmodern condition'.

Book excerpt: Lies, secrets, and a terrifying force within await Janelle in paradise… Moving to Florida should have been simple: start a new high school, make new friends, join the honor society, and make her strict father proud. But instead, she watches a mysterious boy materialize out of a dying hurricane. Gareth is cute, running from something, and has a spiral birthmark on his arm that matches Janelle's own. And there's something dangerous about him she can't put her finger on. But Gareth isn't the only one who isn't normal. As strange things happen around Janelle and an ominous force stirs within, she needs answers her suddenly distant father won't give. Without a mother and betrayed by her father, her only desperate hope for the truth is Gareth. And it's horrifying. An unspeakable nightmare is screaming closer, and if Janelle doesn't escape, she'll kill innocent people. Nothing will be sane or orderly again. For the first time in Janelle's life, she's breaking the rules. But running away might not be enough. Gareth is also fleeing, and those who pursue him also have their sights on Janelle… "The plot was fast-paced and constantly moving along. I was so intrigued by the Tempests that I had a hard time putting the book down. I am looking forward to the next book in the Destroyers series."--Reading Vacation "From the initial scene with the hurricane bearing down on Janelle and her dad, this story pulls you right along through to the surprising conclusion. Creative and entertaining, this book is good fun from start to finish."--GraceKrispy, MotherLode Blog "In all, Tempest is a wonderfully brisk read full of angst and self-discovery. Most of the characters ring true and are decently realized. The innovations are fresh and invigorating. I would most certainly recommend this book to anyone, or to anyone's teenagers."--Journal of Always Reviews

With incredibly detailed aircraft profiles and exciting combat reports this title covers the full history of Tempest squadrons, from their initial design and combat experience in World War 2 through to their post-war role and the eventual decline of this iconic British fighter.

Download or read book Diana Tempest written by Mary Cholmondeley and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diana Tempest (1893) is novel by Mary Cholmondeley. Partly based on her experience as an artist from a wealthy landowning family, Diana Tempest is a story of greed, romance, and betrayal that faced backlash from critics for its controversial portrayal of female sexuality. Satirical and deeply observant of the hypocrisies of Victorian society, Diana Tempest is an essential work by one of Victorian England’s bestselling novelists. “Colonel Tempest, as a rule, took life very easily. If he had fits of uncontrolled passion now and then, they were quickly over. If his feelings were touched, that was quickly over too. But to-day his face was clouded. He had tried the usual antidotes for an impending attack of what he would have called ‘the blues,’ by which he meant any species of reflection calculated to give him that passing annoyance which was the deepest form of emotion of which he was capable.” Unused to being denied, Colonel Tempest is unable to control himself following the death of his brother. Rather than mourn his loss, he laments the passing of the Tempest family fortune to his nephew John, a secretly illegitimate child whose claim as heir is fabricated at best. A notorious gambler, he makes a drunken bet that he will one day control the estate, unwittingly placing a bounty on John’s head. At the same time, the Colonel’s daughter Diana has begun to fall in love with the young heir, complicating her father’s plans and welcoming disaster into her life. Diane Tempest is a tale of family, faith, and betrayal that explores the Victorian concept of the New Woman without sacrificing its entertaining narrative. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Mary Cholmondeley’s Diane Tempest is a classic work of British literature reimagined for modern readers.

Book excerpt: The Tempest: Critical Tradition increases our knowledge of how Shakespeare's plays were received and understood by critics, editors and general readers.

The volume features criticism from key literary figures, such as Ben Jonson, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, John Dryden, John Ruskin and Edward Malone. The chronological arrangement of the text-excerpts engages the readers in a direct and unbiased dialogue, whereas the introduction offers a critical evaluation from a current stance, including modern theories and methods. Thus the volume makes a major contribution to our understanding of the play and of the traditions of Shakespearean criticism surrounding it as they have developed from century to century.
