Book excerpt: There were two women in Zhenbao's life: one he called his white rose, the other his red rose. One was a spotless wife, the other a passionate mistress. Isn't that just how the average man describe a chaste widow's devotion to her husband's memory - as spotless, and passionate too? Maybe every man has had two such women - at least two. Marry a red rose and eventually she'll be a mosquito-blood streak smeared on the wall, while the white one is "moonlight in front of my bed." Marry a white rose, and before long she'll be a grain of sticky rice that's gotten stuck to your clothes; the red one, by then, is a scarlet beauty mark just over your heart. In Eileen Chang's eloquent and evocative novella, Zhenbao is a devoted son, a diligent worker, and guarded in love. But when he meets a friend's spoilt, spirited, desirable wife, he cannot resist her charms, or keep their relationship under his control. As he succumbs to passions and resentments, Red Rose, White Rose is both sensual and restrained.
Download or read book White Rose and the Red written by Hilda Doolittle and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Never before published, White Rose and the Red is the fictional biography of Elizabeth Siddall, wife of English poet and painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti. This extraordinary novel explores the charged interpersonal relationships between and among Siddall, Rossetti, and other key members of the pre-Raphaelite movement, including William Morris and John Ruskin, in an effort to depict struggles of nineteenth-century women within the avant-garde sphere." "During H.D.'s lifetime, publishers shied away from the novel's radically unconventional hybrid form that combines elements of historical nonfiction, fiction, and biography. As part of the dense and allusive prose trilogy written during and after World War II (along with The Sword Went Out to Sea and The Mystery), White Rose and the Red exemplifies the mythic theme that H.D. saw as unifying all her writing. It also examines how Siddall - a controversial muse and model - became the iconic figure of an artistic movement." "In her clear, energetic, and critically informed introduction, Alison Halsall situates H.D.'s work within an analytical framework that examines factors of gender, class, and spiritualism, which shaped Siddall's posthumous reputation. Halsall enhances the edition by pointing out its relevance to important issues within H.D. scholarship and analyzes Victorian influences on modernist self-definition." --Book Jacket.

Book excerpt: If Richard III had not charged to his death at Bosworth, how different might the history of Britain have been? Beginning in 1453 and ending in 1487, The Red Rose and the White provides a gripping overview of the bitter dynastic struggle for supremacy that raged between the houses of York and Lancaster for thirty years, culminating in the dramatic events on Bosworth Field in 1485. As well as offering a comprehensive account of the campaigns, battles and sieges of the conflict, the book also assesses the commanders and men involved and considers the weapons and tactics employed. Photographs, maps and portraits of the principal characters help to bring the period to life, whilst the fast-paced narrative conveys a sense of what it was actually like to fight in battles such as Towton or Tewkesbury the effect of the arrow storm and the grim realities of hand-to-hand combat with edged and bladed weapons. Skilfully weaving in political and social events to place the conflict in its context, The Red Rose and the White is a fascinating exploration of the turbulent period that would change the course of British history forever.

Download or read book White Roses Red Petals written by Saba and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “White Roses, Red Petals” is a take on the mental trauma, suffering and relationship dynamics in the controversial life of ever-so eclectic business magnate Saanjh. As Danyal reminisces about his indelible time spent with Saanjh, who is well-set in her own ways, he realizes that she’s much more than what is seen on the surface. Dismally, she comes with baggage of her own that seems to get heavier and heavier with each footstep of hers. It turns out that after all those years of knowing (and not to forget loving) her, she is still a mystery to Danyal. He finds himself amidst a melancholy and passionate love song. As she treads her way through, finally shedding the remains of mental trauma and sufferings of the past, she finds herself amidst another tragic tale. The way in which her fantasy comes into being is something that bashes her in the pit of overwhelming guilt. Something grim, really grim, happens which quakes her world upside down and all the lost puzzle pieces start falling into hollow spaces. Yes, Saanjh did manage to break the glass ceiling like she always wanted, but at what cost? Money can surely buy material things, but can it buy the invaluable time that is allotted to you in this world? Will Saanjh ever forgive herself for being the sole cause behind that damned day? Will she ever be able to wipe that overwhelming guilt out of her soul?
