Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ashes of Achievement "The Lamp of our Youth will be utterly out; hut we shall subsist on the smell of it, And whatever we do, we shall fold our hands and suck our gums and think well of it. Yes, we shall be perfectly pleased with our work, and that it the perfectest Hell of it!" - The Old Men The road from Deniliquin, glimmers, gray and uninviting, across a changeless expanse of browned grass, like a soiled ribbon on a drab's hair. It narrows to a point miles ahead, with something like a promise of fulfilment, only to widen maliciously as you approach, to march endlessly on as before, dull and level, an exasperating highway. Like a crawling insect the doctor's buggy crept across the plain. Dr. Payne would have indignantly questioned the word "crept," for he would never use a horse that could not do its level ten miles, and indeed the term is but a comparative one, for any progress seemed almost imperceptible in that country of vast distances. The "clop-clop" of the horse was pleasantly muted in the dust, spirals of which slowly mounted into the still, hot air, and marked for miles the passage of the open buggy. Odo Kent, two days off the English boat, looked about him curiously. Inwardly he was wondering how his old school chum could stand this grim monotony.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Achievement T was not until some years after the death of his I wife, Constance, that Richard Furlong painted the second picture of that subject, the first of which had been called The Mysterious Journey. Indeed, the meaning which he had seen in the death of Mrs. Collins' baby was no longer apparent to him in the death of his own wife. Because the de spair was his, he could not see beyond the inevitable fact; was too prostrate in his mind with grief to find the abstract symbol in the concrete thing - as is ever the way with one who would be a philosopher.

Download or read book A River Runs through It and Other Stories written by Norman MacLean and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2017-05-03 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times–bestselling classic set amid the mountains and streams of early twentieth-century Montana, “as beautiful as anything in Thoreau or Hemingway” (Chicago Tribune). When Norman Maclean sent the manuscript of A River Runs Through It and Other Stories to New York publishers, he received a slew of rejections. One editor, so the story goes, replied, “it has trees in it.” Today, the title novella is recognized as one of the great American tales of the twentieth century, and Maclean as one of the most beloved writers of our time. The finely distilled product of a long life of often surprising rapture—for fly-fishing, for the woods, for the interlocked beauty of life and art—A River Runs Through It has established itself as a classic of the American West filled with beautiful prose and understated emotional insights. Based on Maclean’s own experiences as a young man, the book’s two novellas and short story are set in the small towns and mountains of western Montana. It is a world populated with drunks, loggers, card sharks, and whores, but also one rich in the pleasures of fly-fishing, logging, cribbage, and family. By turns raunchy and elegiac, these superb tales express, in Maclean’s own words, “a little of the love I have for the earth as it goes by.” “Maclean’s book—acerbic, laconic, deadpan—rings out of a rich American tradition that includes Mark Twain, Kin Hubbard, Richard Bissell, Jean Shepherd, and Nelson Algren.” —New York Times Book Review Includes a new foreword by Robert Redford, director of the Academy Award–winning film adaptation
