Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hugh Walpole was praised for this 1921 novel for his distinctively vivid characters and London setting. It was greeted as a welcome departure for the popular writer, being, part satire and part fairy-tale. In this novel, Young Henry Trenchard and his sister Millicent are ready to confront a post WWI world torn by rapid change and defined by conflicts with an older generation (it was even happening back then) represented by Sir Charles Duncombe. This novel was written in the inter-war period of the 1920’s and is set in London. During this period long established social norms were rapidly being broken down. Young men came back from the war demanding employment and change, not the least the reduction of the drinking age from 21 to 18. Their stand was “if we can die for our country at 18, then surely we should be allowed to order a pint of beer!” In addition during the war years (1914 to 1918) women were employed in large numbers in factories and offices and proved they could hold their own “in a man’s environment.” With more disposable income, they demanded more freedom (from their Victorian and Edwardian parents) as well as greater independence, which led to a period known as the “Roaring Twenties”. This period gave rise to the “Flappers” and novelty dances like the Breakaway and Charleston being born. A decade of prosperity and freedom was ended with the Lindy Hop and, of course, the Wall Street Crash of 1929. ================ ABOUT THE AUTHOR SIR HUGH SEYMOUR WALPOLE, a 20th-century English novelist, had a large and varied output. Between 1909 and 1941 he wrote thirty-six novels, five volumes of short stories, two original plays and three volumes of memoirs. His range included disturbing studies of the macabre, children's stories and historical fiction, most notably his "Herries" series, set in the Lake District. ================ KEYWORDS/TAGS: Young Enchanted, Hugh Walpole, fiction, novel, fairy tale, satire, London setting, Edwardian, flapper, Charleston, craze, Scarlet Feather, Henry Trenchard, sister, Millicent, Millie, First Day, Three Friends, High Summer, Second Phase, Action, Adventure, Peter, Letters, Cauldron, In Love, Duncombe, First Brush, Enemy, Romance, Cladgate, Life, Death, Mrs. Trenchard, Perfection, Return, Courage, Growth, Knight Errant, Mrs. Tenssen, Mrs. Westcott, Death, Battle, Recover, Breath, Worse Off, Clare, Rescue, Unknown Warrior, Beginning, roaring twenties, first world war, WWI, lindy hop, wall street crash, Charleston,

Book excerpt: “The Enchanted wrapped its beautiful and terrible fingers around me from the first page and refused to let go after the last. A wondrous book that finds transcendence in the most unlikely of places. . . . So dark yet so exquisite.” — Erin Morgenstern, author of The Night Circus An astonishing and redemptive novel for readers of Alice Sebold and Toni Morrison, told from the point of view of a convict whose magical interpretations of prison life allow him to find absolute joy while isolated from the rest of humanity and a female investigator who experiences her own personal salvation in her work as a death penalty investigator. This is an enchanted place. Others don’t see it but I do. The enchanted place is a high security prison and is relayed through the eyes of an inmate on death row who escapes his surroundings by immersing himself in books, and by re-imagining the world that surrounds him. Instead of focusing on the cloudy medical vines that snake across the floor, empty and waiting for the warden’s finger to press the red buttons, our narrator sees golden horses as they run deep under the earth, heat flowing like molten metal from their backs. A woman and fallen priest haunt the prison halls--an unnamed female investigator only known as the Lady who is known for discovering information relating to soon-to-be executed inmates’ backgrounds that can be used to overturn their sentences. She is put on the case of a man named York and as she digs into his past, the experience brings up ghosts of her own and threatens to destroy everything that she has come to know about the enchanted place. The Enchanted is a magical novel about redemption, the humanity that can lie within what is monstrous, and the human capacity to transcend and survive.
Download or read book Enchanted Youth written by Richie McMullen and published by Heretic Books. This book was released on 1990 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's 1958, and fifteen-year-old Richie runs away from his Liverpool home and heads for London. He discovers a world of rent boys preyed on by criminal gangs yet giving each other comfort and support; the excitement of Soho in the rock'n'roll years; and love for an upper-class boy his own age. When his parents banish their son to Singapore, Richie joins the merchant navy and sets off in quest of his friend. Enchanted Youth is the follow-up to Richie McMullen's highly popular Enchanted Boy. If his first volume of memoirs was, in his word, "a journey through abuse to prostitution", the second leads him through a still more perilous time, from prostitution to love.

Download or read book The Enchanted Hour written by Meghan Cox Gurdon and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Wall Street Journal writer’s conversation-changing look at how reading aloud makes adults and children smarter, happier, healthier, more successful and more closely attached, even as technology pulls in the other direction. A miraculous alchemy occurs when one person reads to another, transforming the simple stuff of a book, a voice, and a bit of time into complex and powerful fuel for the heart, brain, and imagination. Grounded in the latest neuroscience and behavioral research, and drawing widely from literature, The Enchanted Hour explains the dazzling cognitive and social-emotional benefits that await children, whatever their class, nationality or family background. But it’s not just about bedtime stories for little kids: Reading aloud consoles, uplifts and invigorates at every age, deepening the intellectual lives and emotional well-being of teenagers and adults, too. Meghan Cox Gurdon argues that this ancient practice is a fast-working antidote to the fractured attention spans, atomized families and unfulfilling ephemera of the tech era, helping to replenish what our devices are leaching away. For everyone, reading aloud engages the mind in complex narratives; for children, it’s an irreplaceable gift that builds vocabulary, fosters imagination, and kindles a lifelong appreciation of language, stories and pictures. Bringing together the latest scientific research, practical tips, and reading recommendations, The Enchanted Hour will both charm and galvanize, inspiring readers to share this invaluable, life-altering tradition with the people they love most.

Evie is happiest when she is healing people, diagnosing symptoms and prescribing medications, with the help of her devoted friend (and test subject) Wormy. So when Wormy unexpectedly proposes to her, she kindly turns him down; she has far too much to do to be marrying anyone. And besides, she simply isn’t in love with him. But a certain meddling fairy named Lucinda has been listening in, and she doesn’t approve of Evie’s rejection. Suddenly, Evie finds herself transformed from a girl into a hideous, hungry ogre! Stuck in this new and confusing form, Evie now has only sixty-two days to accept another proposal—or else be stuck as an ogre forever.
