Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gossip Shop Pauline Westcott, who was half an inhabitant and half a stranger, believed that this continuous, soft-falling mois ture worked upon every one there a sort of Wendlebury change; so that the town and people, and even the very cats and dogs, were in pleasant harmony. But she re mained unaware how far this process had gone in her own case, or she would have laughed at herself for becoming quite excited about the non-arrival of Chubb's cab. All her early girlhood had been spent in a London office, where she determined to excel and did excel, chaining her spirit to her desk and following generally the bright exam ple of the Will 0' the Wisp that would be a light outside a pork-butcher's shop because it had developed a con science and wanted to be of some real, practical use in the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GOSSIP SHOP (THE), by J. E. Buckrose. "They are always saying something in Wendlebury. It's a regular gossip shop." Groups of ladies, with faces bent forward, would talk about their neighbor, spoiling folks' names. Maurice Unwin, whom everyone thought "irresponsible, because he was full of fun and never considered what people might say," suffered sorrow and shame and almost death, as the result of an incident, mentioned in the strictest confidence but tittle-tattled all over town. This satire on life in the small town has many likable characters -- a servant, with her cheery philosophy, a cabby, with a jealous wife, two busybody old maids and a mysterious fortune teller. --The Continent, Volume 49

Book excerpt: This title, originally published in 1988, examines F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Catholic roots and his repudiation of those roots in pursuit of the American dream.

Book The Damned Don t Cry   They Just Disappear

Download or read book The Damned Don t Cry They Just Disappear written by Harlan Greene and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2017-12-29 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A biography of an unconventional Southern writer who illuminated gay life in the South In The Damned Don't Cry—They Just Disappear, literary historian and Lamba Award-winning novelist Harlan Greene has created a portrait of a nearly forgotten southern writer, unearthing information from archives, rare books, film libraries,and small-town newspapers. Greene brings Harry Hervey (1900-1951) to life and explicates his works to reveal him as a hardworking writer and master of many genres, bravely unwilling to conform to conventional values. As Greene illustrates, Hervey's novels, short stories, nonfiction books, and film scripts contain complex mixtures of history and thinly disguised homoerotic situations and themes. They blend local color, naturalism, melodrama, and psychological and sexual truths that provide a view to the circles in which he moved. Living openly with his male lover in Savannah, Georgia, and Charleston, South Carolina, Hervey set novels in these cities that scandalized the locals and critics as well. He challenged the sexual mores of his day, sometimes subtly and at other times brazenly presenting texts that told one story to gay male readers, while still courting a mainstream audience. His novels and nonfiction may have been coded and thus escaped detection in their day, but twenty-first century readers can decipher them easily. Greene also discusses Hervey's travel books and successful Hollywood scriptwriting, as well as his use of exotic elements from Asian cultures. The iconic film Shanghai Express, starring Marlene Dietrich, was based on one of his original stories. He also wrote some of the first travel books on Indochina, with descriptions of male and female prostitution and allusions to his own sexual adventures, which still make for sensational reading today. Despite Hervey's output and his perseverance in presenting gay characters and themes as openly as he could, he has not been included in any survey of twentieth-century gay writers. Greene now rectifies this omission, providing the first book-length study of Hervey's life and work and the first scholarly attention to him in more than fifty years. It furthers our understanding of gay life in the South, as well as the impact of gay artists on popular culture in the first half of the twentieth century.
