Book excerpt: Chemistry and Other Stories, A Picador Paperback Original From the pre-eminent chronicler of this forgotten territory, stories that range over one hundred years in the troubled, violent emergence of the New South. In Ron Rash's stories, spanning the entire twentieth century in Appalachia, rural communities struggle with the arrival of a new era. Three old men stalk the shadow of a giant fish no one else believes is there. A man takes up scuba diving in the town reservoir to fight off a killing depression. A grieving mother leads a surveyor into the woods to name once and for all the county where her son was murdered by thieves.

Download or read book UNBIASED Writings on India written by Bhaskar Parichha and published by Blue Hill Publications. This book was released on 2021-10-03 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second decade (2010-2019) of the new millennium was significant for India. Her rise in a multipolar world had its fitting moments. Powered by a rapidly expanding economy and a favorable demographic trend, India charted its own course to success with a few assertive steps for an optimistic future. Change was more glaring in India during this period when it came to politics. From several surprising debuts to quite a few shocking election wins, the last decade witnessed a massive change in the political situation. Prime Minister Narendra Modi came to power with a thumping victory in 2014 and was re-elected for a second term in 2019 with an even bigger margin. The Congress, on the other hand, was reduced to nothing. Whether it was the revocation of Article 370 or the Ram Mandir verdict, the politico-religious landscape changed a lot in these ten years. These mutable dynamics with shifting of the political narrative from liberal to the right meant one thing: the government would be decisive in action and would not hesitate from taking radical steps if something was in the national interest. Imposing the GST, demonetization were the radical steps taken which had its share of miseries as well. This book is a throwback to those episodic events – economic, social, political, and developmental plus a sundry lot.

Download or read book A Visit to Priapus and Other Stories written by Glenway Wescott and published by University of Wisconsin Pres. This book was released on 2013-11-29 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as E. M. Forster's novel of gay love, Maurice, remained unpublished throughout his lifetime, Glenway Wescott's long story "A Visit to Priapus" was also destined to be a posthumous work, buried from 1938 until this century in Wescott's massive archive of manuscripts, journals, notebooks, and letters. The autobiographical story is about a literary man, frustrated in love, who puts aside his pride and makes a date with a young artist in Maine. Lavishly rendered in Wescott's elegant prose, the tale is explicit where it needs to be, but—as is typical of Wescott—it is filled with descriptive beauty and introspective lessons about sex and sexuality, love and creativity. Previously published in anthology form in the United Kingdom, "A Visit to Priapus" is presented for the first time in book form in America, containing previously uncollected stories, including three never before published. The result is a candid portrayal of the gifted but enigmatic writer who was famous in youth and remained a perceptive and compassionate voice throughout his long life. Drawn together from midcentury literary journals and magazines of the 1920s and 1930s, as well as from Wescott's papers, the stories were inspired by his life, from childhood to old age, from Wisconsin farm country to New York, London, Germany, and Paris.
