This is a mysterious, romantic novel that explores universal themes of identity: how memory (or its lack), talent and intemperate desires -- embodied in art as well as in our genes -- are passed down through families to influence our hidden selves.

Book excerpt: Dangerous. Wild. Reckless. Those were the words that passed through Serna Ward’s mind at the moment Julian Raynor entered the gaming Hall. If anyone could penetrate Serena’s disguise as a tart–and jeopardize the political fugitives she was delivering to freedom–it would surely be London’s most notorious gamester. Yet when the militia storms the establishment in search of traitors, Raynor provides just the pretext Serna needs to escape to an upstairs bedroom. But Serena is playing with fire...and before the night is through she will find herself surrendering to the heat of unsuspected desires. Seductive. Fiery. Treacherous. She had used him for her own scheming purposes, then thrown his generous proposition back in his face. Julian Raynor, a man who had ruthlessly enjoyed his share of women, did not much care to have the tables turned on him. And when he discovered that the passionate beauty who had played his wonton prisoner in bed was none other than Serena Ward, the proud daughter of his bitterest enemy, he saw his chance for revenge–not only on the man who had single-handedly destroyed his family but on the woman who haunted his dreams.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aonia edizioni. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is a semi-autobiographical novel by James Joyce, first serialised in the magazine The Egoist from 1914 to 1915, and published first in book format in 1916 by B. W. Huebsch, New York. The first British edition was published by the Egoist Press in February 1917. The story describes the formative years of the life of Stephen Dedalus, a fictional alter ego of Joyce and an allusion to the consummate craftsman of Greek mythology, Daedalus. A novel written in Joyce's characteristic free indirect speech style, A Portrait is a major example of the Kunstlerroman (an artist's Bildungsroman) in English literature. Joyce's novel traces the intellectual and religio-philosophical awakening of young Stephen Dedalus as he begins to question and rebel against the Catholic and Irish conventions with which he has been raised...(Wikipedia)
Download or read book THE JAMES JOYCE COLLECTION 5 Books in One Edition written by James Joyce and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-11-28 with total page 2285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The James Joyce Collection brings together five of James Joyce's most renowned works in one comprehensive edition. Known for his innovative literary style and modernist approach, Joyce revolutionized the use of stream-of-consciousness narrative and intricate wordplay. The collection includes the groundbreaking novel 'Ulysses', which follows the various activities of protagonist Leopold Bloom throughout a single day in Dublin. Additionally, 'Dubliners' explores the lives of ordinary Dubliners in a series of interconnected short stories, while 'A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man' delves into the coming-of-age story of young Stephen Dedalus. 'Exiles' delves into themes of love and loss, and 'Chamber Music' showcases Joyce's early poetic works. This comprehensive collection provides readers with a unique insight into Joyce's evolving literary style and thematic exploration of Irish identity and culture. James Joyce, an Irish author renowned for his complex narrative techniques and experimental approach to literature, draws on his own experiences and observations of Dublin life in crafting his works. His profound understanding of human consciousness and intricate language usage set him apart as a leading figure of modernist literature. I highly recommend The James Joyce Collection to readers interested in exploring the works of one of the most influential writers of the 20th century. This collection offers a deep dive into Joyce's masterful storytelling and intricate exploration of themes such as identity, nationality, and the human experience.

Download or read book Volupte written by Charles-Augustin Sainte-Beuve and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1995-07-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles-Augustin Sainte-Beuve (1804-69), who ruled French letters in the nineteenth century, established biographical analysis as a critical method. His own fictionalized biography was Volupte (1834), translated here for the first time. It is at once a roman a clef, a historical novel, and a pre-Freudian psychological novel. Disguising his relationship with Victor Hugo's wife Adele by setting the novel in the 1790s during the Breton Chouan uprising against Napoleon, he weaves together fictitious and historical personages. His analysis of the narrator's inner psychological state and the love-hate language games of courtship is framed by parallel intrigues in politics and society.
