Book excerpt: A classic fictional tale of life at an English “all girls” school, Angela Brazil's “The Youngest Girl in the Fifth” follows the travails and triumphs of Gwen, the youngest girl in her year at a traditional boarding school. Charming and entertaining, it is highly recommended for young girls and those with an interest in early schoolgirls' stories. Angela Brazil (1868 – 1947) was an English author most famous for being one of the first writers of "modern schoolgirls' stories". Her stories were presented from the characters' point of view and were written primarily as entertainment rather than moral instruction. During the first half of the 20th century, Brazil published nearly 50 such books, with the vast majority being set in English boarding schools. Brazil's work had a significant influence on changing the nature of fiction for girls. Her charters were chiefly young females, active, independent, and aware. Brazil's books were often considered to be immoral and deviant, leading to their being burned or banned by many Headteachers in girls schools across Britain. Other notable works by this author include: “The School in the Forest” (1944), “Three Terms at Uplands” (1945), “The School on the Loch” (1946). Contents include: “The Gascoyne Girls”, “A False Step”, “A Delicate Transaction”, “Trouble in the Fifth”, “A Casting Vote”, “Dick Chambers”, “Gwen Receives a Letter”, “Keeping Christmas”, “A Prodigal”, “A Prize Essay”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.

Download or read book The Youngest Girl in the School written by Evelyn Sharp and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-10-04 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evelyn Sharp's novel, 'The Youngest Girl in the School', explores the challenges faced by a young girl navigating the social hierarchies and pressures of an elite boarding school. Set in the late 19th century, Sharp's literary style is characterized by vivid descriptions and poignant character development, capturing the emotional depth of her protagonist's experiences. The novel stands as a classic example of Victorian schoolgirl fiction, shedding light on the expectations and limitations imposed on young women of the era. Sharp's attention to detail and social commentary make this work a compelling read for those interested in the intersection of gender and education in the 19th century. Evelyn Sharp, known for her feminist activism and writing, likely drew inspiration from her own experiences and observations to create a nuanced portrayal of female adolescence in a restrictive educational environment. Readers seeking an insightful exploration of Victorian schoolgirl culture and feminist themes will find 'The Youngest Girl in the School' a captivating and thought-provoking read.

This book was released on 2019-12-03 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrated as a “literary gateway drug” to Proust’s masterpiece (NPR), the New York Times–best-selling graphic adaptation continues with this highly anticipated new volume. In what renowned translator Arthur Goldhammer called “a piano reduction of an orchestral score,” the first volume of Stéphane Heuet’s adaptation of In Search of Lost Time electrified the graphic community like no other—re-presenting the novel for anyone who has always dreamed of reading Proust but was put off by the sheer magnitude of the undertaking. Whereas the first volume described the narrator’s childhood in the pastoral town of Combray, the second volume portrays the narrator’s foray into adolescence, set in the opulent seaside resort of Balbec. Preserving Proust’s original dissection of the spontaneity of youth, translator Laura Marris captures the narrator’s infatuation with his playmates—his memories of their intoxicating afternoons together unfolding as if in a dream. Featuring some of Proust’s most memorable characters—from mysterious Charlus to beguiling young Albertine—this second volume becomes a necessary companion piece for any lover of modern literature.
