Download or read book A Library of the World s Best Literature Ancient and Modern Vol XLIV Forty Five Volumes Synopses of Famous Books written by Charles Dudley Warner and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2008-07-01 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular American essayist, novelist, and journalist CHARLES DUDLEY WARNER (1829-1900) was renowned for the warmth and intimacy of his writing, which encompassed travelogue, biography and autobiography, fiction, and more, and influenced entire generations of his fellow writers. Here, the prolific writer turned editor for his final grand work, a splendid survey of global literature, classic and modern, and it's not too much to suggest that if his friend and colleague Mark Twain-who stole Warner's quip about how "everybody complains about the weather, but nobody does anything about it"-had assembled this set, it would still be hailed today as one of the great achievements of the book world. Volume 44 features synopses of notable works-from The Abb Constantin by Ludovic Halvy to Wuthering Heights by Emily Bront-including many not previously referenced in the set but highlighted as well worth a serious reader's time and attention.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The narrator believed that the exact moment when the devil entered into Barrett was four forty-five p.m. on a certain June afternoon, when he and she were standing at Parker's door in the court at ——s. He says himself that he was as pure as snow till that instant, and that if the entente cordiale between himself and that very interesting and stimulating personality had not been established he is convinced he would either have died young of excessive virtue, or have become a missionary. The narrator disagrees. She only knows that the consequences of the entente aged me. But then Barrett says she was born middle-aged like Maitland himself, the hero of this romance, if so it can be called. Barrett calls it a romance. The narrator doesn't know what to call it, but it covers her with shame whenever she thinks of it.
