Download or read book Two Too Deep Fools and More Supposedly written by Brett Horton and published by Virtualbookworm Publishing. This book was released on 2004-05 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two Too Deep Fools & More, Supposedly... is unique. There is no other book like this. Mysterious, serious, comical and alluring all at once, it is a short story that umbrellas poems, shorter stories, drawings, paintings and photographs into a singular body of work. The story that glues it all together is based on Ka-nell, a youngster who prefers to daydream his life away, meditating in front of an electric fan while he concocts strange, whimsical fantasies in the form of writings and pictures, full of vivid, memorable characters. Madame Ingle Beezle is the vainglorious, yet loveable keeper of the house who gets cheap kicks from her constant, absurd nagging of the easy-going but somewhat paranoid boy. Salaway is the cat of the house who is simply content with his majestic aura. There are enigmatic paintings hanging in Ka-nell's room. He enjoys pondering and getting lost in them. This book is kind of like an amusing riddle: short, sweet and almost to the point. As it picks up, Ka-nell wonders if someone or something is spying on him. Madame Ingle Beezle loses her practicality. And Salaway seems to know something nobody else knows...

Download or read book We Two written by Gillian Gill and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2009-05-19 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "[A] delectable double bio . . . Talk about Victoria’s secret. . . . A fascinating portrait of a genuine love match, but one in which the partners dealt with surprisingly modern issues.” —USA Today It was the most influential marriage of the nineteenth century—and one of history’ s most enduring love stories. Traditional biographies tell us that Queen Victoria inherited the throne as a naïve teenager, when the British Empire was at the height of its power, and seemed doomed to find failure as a monarch and misery as a woman until she married her German cousin Albert and accepted him as her lord and master. Now renowned chronicler Gillian Gill turns this familiar story on its head, revealing a strong, feisty queen and a brilliant, fragile prince working together to build a family based on support, trust, and fidelity, qualities neither had seen much of as children. The love affair that emerges is far more captivating, complex, and relevant than that depicted in any previous account. The epic relationship began poorly. The cousins first met as teenagers for a few brief, awkward, chaperoned weeks in 1836. At seventeen, charming rather than beautiful, Victoria already “showed signs of wanting her own way.” Albert, the boy who had been groomed for her since birth, was chubby, self-absorbed, and showed no interest in girls, let alone this princess. So when they met again in 1839 as queen and presumed prince-consort-to-be, neither had particularly high hopes. But the queen was delighted to discover a grown man, refined, accomplished, and whiskered. “Albert is beautiful!” Victoria wrote, and she proposed just three days later. As Gill reveals, Victoria and Albert entered their marriage longing for intimate companionship, yet each was determined to be the ruler. This dynamic would continue through the years—each spouse, headstrong and impassioned, eager to lead the marriage on his or her own terms. For two decades, Victoria and Albert engaged in a very public contest for dominance. Against all odds, the marriage succeeded, but it was always a work in progress. And in the end, it was Albert’s early death that set the Queen free to create the myth of her marriage as a peaceful idyll and her husband as Galahad, pure and perfect. As Gill shows, the marriage of Victoria and Albert was great not because it was perfect but because it was passionate and complicated. Wonderfully nuanced, surprising, often acerbic—and informed by revealing excerpts from the pair’s journals and letters—We Two is a revolutionary portrait of a queen and her prince, a fascinating modern perspective on a couple who have become a legend. BONUS: This edition contains a reader's guide.
