Download or read book Dear Life written by Alice Munro and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE© IN LITERATURE 2013 A New York Times Notable Book A Washington Post Notable Work of Fiction A Best Book of the Year: The Atlantic, NPR, San Francisco Chronicle, Vogue, AV Club In story after story in this brilliant new collection, Alice Munro pinpoints the moment a person is forever altered by a chance encounter, an action not taken, or a simple twist of fate. Her characters are flawed and fully human: a soldier returning from war and avoiding his fiancée, a wealthy woman deciding whether to confront a blackmailer, an adulterous mother and her neglected children, a guilt-ridden father, a young teacher jilted by her employer. Illumined by Munro’s unflinching insight, these lives draw us in with their quiet depth and surprise us with unexpected turns. And while most are set in her signature territory around Lake Huron, some strike even closer to home: an astonishing suite of four autobiographical tales offers an unprecedented glimpse into Munro’s own childhood. Exalted by her clarity of vision and her unparalleled gift for storytelling, Dear Life shows how strange, perilous, and extraordinary ordinary life can be.
Download or read book Dear Jenny We are All Find written by Jenny Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Asian American Studies. "Jenny Zhang's poems broadcast themselves with a surrealist anxiety. 'Can't I be my own dream?' she asks. The answer is always yes and always no. With dizzying energy and intelligence, Zhang forages through familial, global, and even anatomical configurations vainly outlining an identity that manifests only to shift and move restlessly on. This book brings to mind a 21st century Whitman, only female, Chinese, and profoundly scatological." Elizabeth Robinson"

Download or read book Frankly My Dear written by Molly Haskell and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2010-02-01 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Haskell keeps both novel and movie at hand, moving from one to the other, comparing and distinguishing what Margaret Mitchell expresses from what obsessive producer David O. Selznick, directors George Cukor and Victor Fleming, screenplaywrights Sidney Howard and a host of fixers (including Ben Hecht and Scott Fitzgerald), and actors Vivien Leigh, Clark Gable, Hattie McDaniel, and others convey. She emphasizes the contributions of Selznick, Leigh, and in an entire chapter, Mitchell, drawing heavily and analytically on existing biographies, the literature of women and the Civil War, Civil War films (especially Birth of a Nation and Jezebel), and film criticism to such engaging effect as to not just revisit GWTW but to revive and intensify the enduring fascination of what Selznick dubbed the American Bible. --Olson, Ray Copyright 2009 Booklist.

Download or read book The True Face of The Antichrist written by James Prince and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2013-06-10 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book that you’re holding in your hands will do what it was said about the two olive trees in Revelation and believe it, what is written in it will torment the inhabitants of the earth, just like it is described in the book of Revelation. I am not a theologian, but in this book you will find all the evidences, all the necessary proofs, which expose the true face of the antichrist, the true face of the devil, the one Jesus talked about in Matthew 13, 39. “And the enemy who sows them is the devil.” In this book you will also find the name of the beast, finally. Name that millions have tried in vain to identify. The devil sowed the lies, but we have believed in them despite all of Jesus and his disciples’ warnings and this causes our lost. Only the key of the kingdom of heaven that Jesus gave to Peter, the truth, the word of God can save us. Read very carefully 2 Thessalonians 2, 10. “They perish because they refused to love the truth and to be saved.” If you really have love for the truth, you will read; The True Face of The Antichrist to the end, even though it is very shocking and troubling as you have never been, but remember one thing, it is for your own salvation. I already have my salvation, because I saw and I believed the truth and I have accepted it. So, I wish you the same joy, the same happiness. The truth that is in this book is a knife straight to the heart of the beast. The more it will be sold and the more the truth will be known and accepted, the more the beast will be destroyed. What gives the power to the beast are the ignorance and the hypocricy of its members. The beast has its foundation on lies and this is why it will be destroyed by the truth, by the word of God, just like the prophecy says. See 2 Thessalonians 2, 8. “And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth (the word of God) and destroy by the splendor of his coming.” James Prince
Download or read book Dear Vincent written by Mandy Hager and published by Penguin Random House New Zealand Limited. This book was released on 2013-06-07 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Powerful YA novel by an award-winning writer about a teenager coming to terms with the suicide of her sister. 17 year old Tara McClusky’s life is hard. She shares the care of her paralysed father with her domineering, difficult mother, forced to cut down on her hours at school to help support the family with a part-time rest home job. She’s very much alone, still grieving the loss of her older sister Van, who died five years before. Her only source of consolation is her obsession with art — and painting in particular. Most especially she is enamoured with Vincent Van Gogh: she has read all his letters and finds many parallels between the tragic story of his life and her own. Luckily she meets the intelligent, kindly Professor Max Stockhamer (a Jewish refugee and philosopher) and his grandson Johannes, and their support is crucial to her ability to survive this turbulent time. NZ Post Award-wining author Mandy Hager tackles the difficult topic of suicide fearlessly, with a novel that's not afraid to go to the dark places but which resolves its story beautifully. It's uplifting and positive. Dear Vincent is also a novel about the power of love, and how the acquisition of inner peace requires forgiveness of ourselves and others.
Download or read book HUDSON TAYLOR AND THE CHINA INLAND MISSION written by DR. AND / MRS. HOWARD TAYLOR and published by Irving Risch. This book was released on 2015-10-17 with total page 851 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I found this work by Dr. and Mrs. Howard Taylor on Hudson Taylor and the China Inland Mission, but it was a scanned copy of one that was marked up and made for a bad scan. I did find one ebook but for some reason it had some HTML errors and wouldn't load into any of my readers. I ended up taking the raw text file and going through it making all the corrections. I then converted it to a ebook format. This project was a time consuming task. Now About the Book: Hudson Taylor was a true man of faith as this book will show. He was the founder of the China Inland Mission and started his journey of faith at a young man. Here is a clip from the Forward: " The founder of the China Inland Mission was a physician, J. Hudson Taylor, a man full of the Holy Spirit and of faith, of entire surrender to God and His call, of great self- denial, heartfelt compassion, rare power in prayer, marvellous organising faculty, energetic initiative, indefatigable perseverance, and of astonishing influence with men, and withal of childlike humility."
