Download or read book Alice Munro and the Anatomy of the Short Story written by Oriana Palusci and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-01-23 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alice Munro has devoted her entire career to the short story form in her fourteen collections, having won the Nobel Prize in Literature “as master of the contemporary short story”. This edited volume investigates her art as a storyteller, the processes she performs on the contemporary short story genre in her creative anatomical theatre. Divided into five topical sections, it is a collection of scholarly chapters which offer textual insights into a single story, compare two or more texts, or casts a more panoramic view on Munro’s literary production, embracing stories from her first collection Dance of the Happy Shades to her last published Dear Life. Through different critical approaches that range from post-structuralism to cultural studies, from linguistics and rhetorical analyses to translation studies, the authors insist on the concept that no fixed patterns prevail in her short stories, as Munro has constantly developed, challenged, and revised existing modes of generic configuration, while discussing the fluidity, the elusiveness, the indeterminacy, the ambiguity of her superb writing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dive into the epic series featuring the brave warriors of Omega Squad—an elite team of clone commandos fighting to protect the Galactic Republic. Following the eruption of the bloody Clone Wars at the battle of Geonosis, both sides remain deadlocked in a stalemate that can be broken only by elite warrior teams like Omega Squad, clone commandos with terrifying combat skills and a lethal arsenal. For Omega Squad, deployed deep behind enemy lines, it’s the same old special ops grind: sabotage, espionage, ambush, and assassination. But when Omega Squad is rushed to Coruscant, the war’s most dangerous new hotspot, the commandos discover they’re not the only ones penetrating the heart of the enemy. A surge in Separatist attacks has been traced to a network of cells in the Republic’s capital, masterminded by a mole in Command Headquarters. To identify and destroy a Separatist spy and terror network in a city full of civilians will require special talents and skills. Not even the leadership of Jedi generals, along with the assistance of Delta Squad and a certain notorious ARC trooper, can even the odds against the Republic Commandos. And while success may not bring victory in the Clone Wars, failure means certain defeat.
Download or read book A Series of Unfortunate Events 01 The Bad Beginning written by Lemony Snicket and published by Egmont Books (UK). This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is nothing to be found in the pages of A Series of Unfortunate Events but misery and despair. You still have time to choose another international best-seller to read. But if you must know what unpleasantries befall the charming and clever Baudelaire children read on . . . In The Bad Beginning the three youngsters encounter a greedy and repulsive villain, itchy clothing, a disastrous fire, a plot to steal their fortune and cold porridge for breakfast. Then again, why trouble yourself with the unfortunate resolutions? With 5 million copies sold in the UK alone, one might consider Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events to make him one of the most successful children’s authors of the past decade. We, however, consider these miserable so-called adventure stories and the Hollywood film starring Jim Carrey that accompanied the books for children as nothing more than a dreadful mistake.
Download or read book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil written by John Berendt and published by Random House. This book was released on 1994-01-13 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A modern classic of true crime, set in a most beguiling Southern city—now in a 30th anniversary edition with a new afterword by the author “Elegant and wicked . . . might be the first true-crime book that makes the reader want to book a bed and breakfast for an extended weekend at the scene of the crime.”—The New York Times Book Review Shots rang out in Savannah’s grandest mansion in the misty, early morning hours of May 2, 1981. Was it murder or self-defense? For nearly a decade, the shooting and its aftermath reverberated throughout this hauntingly beautiful city of moss-hung oaks and shaded squares. In this sharply observed, suspenseful, and witty narrative, John Berendt skillfully interweaves a hugely entertaining first-person account of life in this isolated remnant of the Old South with the unpredictable twists and turns of a landmark murder case. It is a spellbinding story peopled by a gallery of remarkable characters: the well-bred society ladies of the Married Woman’s Card Club; the turbulent young gigolo; the hapless recluse who owns a bottle of poison so powerful it could kill every man, woman, and child in Savannah; the aging and profane Southern belle who is the “soul of pampered self-absorption”; the uproariously funny drag queen; the acerbic and arrogant antiques dealer; the sweet-talking, piano-playing con artist; young people dancing the minuet at the black debutante ball; and Minerva, the voodoo priestess who works her magic in the graveyard at midnight. These and other Savannahians act as a Greek chorus, with Berendt revealing the alliances, hostilities, and intrigues that thrive in a town where everyone knows everyone else. Brilliantly conceived and masterfully written, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is a sublime and seductive reading experience.
Download or read book One Night written by A. J. Pine and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-04-21 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When she lost it all, Jess decided to cope by living a lie. But you can’t keep on pretending forever… Twenty-one-year-old Jess used to have everything—a loyal best friend, a boyfriend she loved, and a future that was right on track. But in a single night, her whole world changed. Now, Jess lives for the impersonal connection of drunken hook-ups and to-go coffee cups in the morning. All she needs is one night to pretend everything is fine…until she meets Adam. Thanks to a sports injury, gorgeous, charming basketball star Adam Carson is stuck in physical therapy at the hospital where Jess interns—giving her the perfect opportunity to see his sweet, considerate nature and making her realize that maybe she does want something more. But while Adam might be the best thing that’s happened to Jess in a long time, letting him past her carefully constructed walls means letting him know what happened...and why he'd never want her for more than one night. AJ Pine writes stories to break readers’ hearts, but don’t worry—she’ll mend them with a happily ever after. As an English teacher and a librarian, AJ has always surrounded herself with books. All her favorites have one big commonality—kissing. Lots of kissing. Naturally, her books have the same. When she's not writing, she’s of course reading. Then there's online shopping (everything from groceries to shoes) and a tiny bit of TV where she nourishes her undying love of vampires, from Eric Northman to the Salvatore brothers. And in the midst of all of this, you'll also find her hanging with her family in the Chicago burbs.
Download or read book Children Remembered written by Robert Woods and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children Remembered discusses the relationship between parents and children in the past. It focuses on the ways in which adults responded to the untimely deaths of children, whether and how they expressed their grief. The study engages with the hypothesis of 'parental indifference' associated with the French cultural historian Philippe Ariès by analysing the changing risk of mortality since the sixteenth century and assessing its consequences. It uses paintings and poems to describe feelings and emotions in ways that are not only highly original, but also challenge traditional disciplinary conventions. The circumstances of infant and child mortality are considered for France and England, while example portraits and poems are selected from England and America. While the work is firmly grounded in demography, it is especially concerned with current debates in social and cultural history, with the history of childhood, the way pictorial images can be 'read', and the use as historical evidence to which literature may be put. This is a wide- ranging and ambitions multi-disciplinary study that will add significantly to our understanding of demographic structures; the ways in which they have conditioned attitudes and behaviour in the past.

Download or read book Children of an Everlasting Heaven written by Arthur Winarczyk and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-04-27 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They were as different as the creatures of the land are to the creatures of the sea. They were a people in the spirit and children of their God. For over 30 years they were in the spirit with their God (in the wilderness) and learning a new way of understanding. Finally a dream came upon them. They were at a banquet. There were two long tables covered with elegant white tablecloths. One full of the food they knew and loved and with engraved candles and white dinner plates. The other table bare except for large white plates with unusual food at one end. As unusual as the food was - it was delicious. Upon awakening they worked out the dream. The food on the first table was symbolic for their existing beliefs and traditions. The other table represented a new way of life in the spirit – the Way of the Holy Spirit One outcome of this journey is new knowledge in the spirit - and in books titled The Science of Life and Dimensional Energy Physics. The Third Testament used by this Life in the Spirit group is in the Appendix. The opening words of the Third Testament are: Seek compassion not perfection Seek techniques of reconciliation Children of an Everlasting Heaven is a tale of a man and a woman destined to be eternal companions (also a gourmet feast for those curious about Life in the Spirit). Their journey begins with a chance meeting in an Australian court. An impossible coincidence presents itself – during World War II Darth’s Polish Catholic mother hid a German Jewish girl under her bed when Gestapo came hunting Jews. It becomes clear Helen is the daughter of that woman! She takes an interest in what he is doing - researching court orders organised by lawyers and used to aid “property theft” and protect child sexual abuse. That research is documented on his medical sites. (www.5glsoftware.org/sftdoc.html). On the surface such AVOs protect a person from violence. He also wants to document the medical impact on people subject to exploitation. People over 50 cannot find work because a mentality in control does not employ over 50’s. Instead, laws are in place which force such to volunteer to work with no pay. The “force” is achieved by harassment: a man with debilitating arthritis works for no pay lifting heavy furniture to avoid harassment by bureaucrats. Helen, a young Rabbi with ideal Aryan looks and a figure to die for, begins teaching her man about Life in the Spirit – a mystery passed (in the spirit) from Aaron (the first priest). It is the Promised Land or the Kingdom of Heaven. Virtual reality forms in the mind and a person learns to use mental images. Darth is the Immortal Lord and in him the Holy Spirit strong. His manner of leading his people in the spirit is to come across as a lost soul who needs guidance. Often wondering if his legal research that is identifying laws and court orders abused or used to protect child sexual abuse is more important than trying to assist his people in the spirit? Parts are romance – boy meets girl, boy dates girl, boy and girl argue, boy and girl kiss, boy and girl fall in love. In other chapters Helen locks his mind and explains mysteries. In time she is suspicious – he is linking to Life in the Spirit groups with the innocence of a dove and the cunning of a serpent – in Kaspa and Delilah (Chapter 16) using delightful cartoon imagery the little ghost is looking for his dad using maps he asks those he comes upon – Rabbi, Catholic Sister, Islamic woman with a veil, a Buddhist monk – to help him understand. Some visions are – magnificent – in a high quality 3-D panoramic vision like a majestic alien landscape formed from effervescent and shimmering vibrations of light, he looking a touch like Darth Vader of Star Wars, he flows: “While there is one child who dies from hunger or lack of care – we are at war. Jesus said his kingdom is not

Download or read book Frederick written by Frederick Ndabaramiye and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2014-09-23 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “My God won’t let me do that.” These seven words of boundless hope would irreversibly change the life of the teenage boy who spoke them. On April 7, 1994 the life of Frederick Ndabaramiye and his family changed forever as the Rwandan genocide erupted in their homeland. When Frederick faced those same genocidaires a few years later, he noted the machete that hung from the right hand closest to him and wondered if his would soon be added to the layers of dried blood that clung to the blade. Either way, young Frederick knew that he wouldn’t be able to carry out the orders just given to him, to raise that blade against the other passengers of the bus, regardless of the race marked on their identity cards. That bold decision would cause Frederick to lose his hands. But what the killers meant for harm, God intended for good. The cords that bound him served as a tourniquet, saving his life when his hands were hacked away. This new disability eventually fueled Frederick’s passion to show the world that disabilities do not have to stop you from living a life of undeniable purpose. From that passion, the Ubumwe Community Center was born, where "people like me" come to discover their own purposes and abilities despite their circumstances. Through miraculous mercy and divine appointment, Frederick forgives those who harmed him and goes on to fully grasp his God-given mission. In this extraordinary true story of forgiveness, faith, and hope, you will be challenged, convicted, and forever converted to a believer of the impossible.

Par is busy preparing for an upcoming tournament, and things are looking good for her—right up until she has to spend a night in jail for a bogus DUI charge and ends up on the front page of her local newspaper as a result. As the week unfolds and Par comes up against one challenge after another, she’s forced to decide: either continue to cling to her memories, or seize the opportunity to evolve and let go of the past once and for all.
