Download or read book Two Friends written by Alberto Moravia and published by Other Press, LLC. This book was released on 2011-08-16 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this set of novellas, a few facts are constant. Sergio is a young intellectual, poor and proud of his new membership in the Communist Party. Maurizio is handsome, rich, successful with women, and morally ambiguous. Sergio’s young, sensual lover becomes collateral damage in the struggle between these two men. All three of these unfinished stories, found packed in a suitcase after Alberto Moravia’s death, share this narrative premise. But from there, each story unfolds in a unique way. The first patiently explores the slow unfurling of Sergio’s resentment toward Maurizio. The second reveals the calculated bargain Maurizio offers in exchange for his conversion to Sergio’s beloved Communism. And the third switches dramatically to the first person, laying bare Sergio’s conflicted soul. Anyone interested in literature will relish the opportunity to watch Moravia at work, tinkering with his story and working at it from three unique perspectives.

Download or read book Scintillating Stories Book 1 written by R. Jonnavittula and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-06-13 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life is too short to gain all knowledge by personal experience; one needs to learn from the experiences of others. The best way to do this is through books. A short story deals with an issue generally faced by us at different stages in life and interestingly shows how to tackle it. Whether you agree with the author or not it is certainly educative. Stories may be short but their impact would continue to reverberate for a long time in the reader's mind. Beware! Authors have a knack of casting a spell on you and attracting you to their point of view. Readers should step off from the author from time to time and reexamine author's logic critically. This is a collection of stories; therefore I am giving a brief idea of each story. Time warp: One is likely to face several crossroads during life, at which one needs to take a decision. One's experiences are one's past; one's expectations and ambitions are one's future. The former tends to caution the latter. In this story both of them were personified and brought to the same plane as the present to advise Murthy who was at a crossroads in his life. Another world: This is fiction drifting into a fairy tale; it is Venkat's first contact with a raw unkind world. Crime and punishment: Some husbands like Marthandam are unreasonably cruel toward's their wives. Once the torture crosses the limit of tolerance of the woman, she chooses an effective way to set things right, like Chidrupi did in this story. A.I.I.E.: Sometimes, well known persons might look bewitchingly attractive and make you run after them! That was what Murthy discovered. So was it written: A construction worker Bhadradri found a copper plate which lured him to find the hidden tresure. He succeeded but could not survive to enjoy the find! Divine justice: A greedy Kiran tried to grab the property of Kalyani by disputing her parentage. Scientific evidence nailed her lie in the open court. Scorpion's sting: In a weaker moment, even a good person like the manager of the choultry, might fall victim to evil influence. A circumstance might induce him to reform himself by renouncing everything and becoming a sanyasi. A husband's folly: Unlike Narayana, husbands and wives should trust each other implicitly (Even in spite of occasional lapses). Extraction of truth: Professional etiquette is essential for every professional but more so for physicians. A small mistake of Dr.Satyamurthy and his effort to cover it up boom-ranged on him. A tale of two 'Friends': Beware! Sometimes, we come across wicked persons like Gireesh who use friendship for purely selfish purposes. ---------

Download or read book Two Friends written by Guy de Maupassant and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2022-05-30 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s 1870 and the Siege of Paris is in full swing, where the French-Prussian war has brought daily life to a halt. Wearied, starving, and strung out on absinthe, two men meet by chance at their favourite fishing spot. "Two Friends" follows Morissot and Sauvage as they make their way into no man’s land and drink away the miseries of the war. A powerful short story that extolls the virtues of French patriotism and dramatises the cruelties of war. Maupassant’s portrayal yearns for a return to ordinary life and real human connections, through plain philosophy and simple language suited to the styles of Flaubert and Hemingway. Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893) was a famous French writer, often referred to as the father of the short story. A prolific writer, his best known works include "Bel-Ami", "Une Vie" and "The Necklace", alongside some 300 short stories, travel books, and poetry. A master of style and dramatic narrative, Maupassant’s stories are drawn to themes of war, the working class, and the human condition. One of his greatest influences was Gustave Flaubert, who introduced him to some of the central names of the time such as Emile Zola, Ivan Turgenev, and Henry James.
