Download or read book A Private Life written by Ran Chen and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2004-05-12 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of China's most celebrated contemporary novelists comes this riveting tale of a young woman's emotional and sexual awakening. Set in the turbulent decades of the Cultural Revolution and the Tian'anmen Square incident, A Private Life exposes the complex and fantastical inner life of a young woman growing up during a time of intense social and political upheaval. At the age of twenty-six, Ni Niuniu has come to accept pain and loss. She has suffered the death of her mother and a close friend and neighbor, Mrs. Ho. She has long been estranged from her tyrannical father, while her boyfriend—a brilliant and handsome poet named Yin Nan—was forced to flee the country. She has survived a disturbing affair with a former teacher, a mental breakdown that left her in a mental institution for two years, and a stray bullet that tore through the flesh of her left leg. Now living in complete seclusion, Niuniu shuns a world that seems incapable of accepting her and instead spends her days wandering in vivid, dreamlike reveries where her fractured recollections and wild fantasies merge with her inescapable feelings of melancholy and loneliness. Yet this eccentric young woman—caught between the disappearing traditions of the past and a modernizing Beijing, a flood of memories and an unknowable future, her chosen solitude and her irrepressible longing—discovers strength and independence through writing, which transforms her flight from the hypocrisy of urban life into a journey of self-realization and rebirth. First published in 1996 to widespread critical acclaim, Chen Ran's controversial debut novel is a lyrical meditation on memory, sexuality, femininity, and the often arbitrary distinctions between madness and sanity, alienation and belonging, nature and society. As Chen leads the reader deep into the psyche of Ni Niuniu—into her innermost secrets and sexual desires—the borders separating narrator and protagonist, writer and subject dissolve, exposing the shared aspects of human existence that transcend geographical and cultural differences.

Download or read book South from Hell fer Sartin written by Leonard W. Roberts and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-11-21 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South from Hell-fer-Sartin, a short creek flowing into the Middle Fork of the Kentucky River, lies one of the of the most isolated regions in Kentucky. There, on the north slope of the Pine Mountain range in Leslie and Perry counties—probably the last stronghold of white, English-language folk tales in North America—Leonard W. Roberts recorded this rich collection more than three decades ago. To a people who, at that time, watched dancing hearth fires more often than television, the adventures of Jack in the land of witches and giants, monsters and beautiful princesses, provided first-class entertainment. Here are such old favorites as "Sleeping Beauty" and "The Golden Arm," retold in the idiom of the Kentucky mountains. Here are hauntingly beautiful cantes fables and earthy Irishman jokes. Here are encounters with Indians and marvelous hunting escapades. Roberts introduces his collection, first published in 1955, with a sympathetic description of the mountain way of life. He notes especially the bewildering and rapid changes that came to the Pine Mountain watershed in that decade as the highways and electric lines at last brought in a sophistication that preferred the soap opera to the folk tale. Although the stories Roberts recorded were still a firm part of folk tradition at the time, he believed that within a decade or two they would be forgotten—a prediction, sadly, by now no doubt fulfilled. Any lover of the vanishing art of tale telling will relish this rich treasury of folklore and humor. Full notes on sources, types, motifs, parallels, and possible origins of the tales make this collection valuable also for folklorists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sharon: So why are you telling us all this now, Ashtar? Ashtar: Because it's time, Sharon. Sharon Stewart, Channeler & Author: "I am absolutely stunned by what he's been telling me! That's the only comment I have. Absolutely blown away! If you can read this book without contemplating the entirety of existence, then you've read it too fast." THIS IS WHAT everybody's been waiting for! What's going on now and what's to come in the future for earth, as told by the man who is in charge of seeing it all gets accomplished, delivered by one of the few people who can channel a book from such a high energy being, Ascended Master Commander Ashtar Sheran. Ashtar explains what's to come for Eden (Earth) in the next 50 years and beyond. Expanding on Ivo of Vega's book, "What You Need to Know Now," Ashtar tells us in more detail of the return of the Light and specifically the Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine energies to restore this world to life and the Light. There are some real surprises in here, things you could never have dreamed of! Ashtar Sheran: "Whatever confidential files are being released to the public now, do you believe that these are actually the true files on sensitive subjects like Area 51? If you do, then you have fallen for their ruse again. What they do, they do to control you and to mislead your minds into fulfilling their agenda. There is little truth upon your planet. Your Secret Space Program works in anticipation of future effect as well; they can see into the future, jump timelines and see the effects of their work in the future. Documents released to the public now only continue to back up the false narrative they created 70 years ago. You are naive if you believe otherwise. Besides that, extraterrestrials don't keep paper documents. Earthlings do." Ashtar's information about future technologies and our use of them to battle rising ocean levels will leave you relieved and feeling more comforted about the future of humanity. We will come to our own aid and we'll do a fantastic job of transforming our planet in the meantime! Written in easy to read English, lacking in technical jabber, anyone can read this book from start to finish and increase in awareness and frequency.
