Download or read book Whereabouts written by Jhumpa Lahiri and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2021-04-27 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A marvelous new novel from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Lowland and Interpreter of Maladies about a woman questioning her place in the world, wavering between stasis and movement, between the need to belong and the refusal to form lasting ties. “Another masterstroke in a career already filled with them.” —O, the Oprah Magazine Exuberance and dread, attachment and estrangement: in this novel, Jhumpa Lahiri stretches her themes to the limit. In the arc of one year, an unnamed narrator in an unnamed city, in the middle of her life’s journey, realizes that she’s lost her way. The city she calls home acts as a companion and interlocutor: traversing the streets around her house, and in parks, piazzas, museums, stores, and coffee bars, she feels less alone. We follow her to the pool she frequents, and to the train station that leads to her mother, who is mired in her own solitude after her husband’s untimely death. Among those who appear on this woman’s path are colleagues with whom she feels ill at ease, casual acquaintances, and “him,” a shadow who both consoles and unsettles her. Until one day at the sea, both overwhelmed and replenished by the sun’s vital heat, her perspective will abruptly change. This is the first novel Lahiri has written in Italian and translated into English. The reader will find the qualities that make Lahiri’s work so beloved: deep intelligence and feeling, richly textured physical and emotional landscapes, and a poetics of dislocation. But Whereabouts, brimming with the impulse to cross barriers, also signals a bold shift of style and sensibility. By grafting herself onto a new literary language, Lahiri has pushed herself to a new level of artistic achievement.

Book excerpt: Abide With Me:From thePulitzer Prize-winning authorof Olive Kitteridge From the bestselling author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Olive Kitteridge,this is a startlingly beautiful novel about love and abandonment, faith and hypocrisy – and the peril of family secrets. ‘Deeply moving... In one beautiful page after another, Strout captures the mysterious combinations of hope and sorrow.’ The Washington Post Katherine is only five years old. Struck dumb with grief at her mother's death, it is down to her father, the heartbroken minister Tyler Caskey, to bring his daughter out of silence. But Tyler is barely surviving himself. Since Lauren's death he struggles to find the right words for his sermons – how can he be a leader to his congregation when he himself is lost? When Katherine's teacher calls to discuss his daughter's anti-social behaviour, it sparks a chain of events that begins to tear down Tyler's defences. The small-town rumour-mill has much to make of Katherine's odd behaviour, and even more to say about Tyler's relationship with his housekeeper. In Tyler's darkest hour, a startling discovery will test his congregation's humanity - and his own will to endure the kinds of trials that sooner or later test us all. Praise for Elizabeth Strout ‘Astonishingly good’ Evening Standard 'So good it gave me goosebumps.’Sunday Times ‘Strout animates the ordinary with astonishing force.’ The New Yorker 'A superbly gifted storyteller and a craftswoman in a league of her own.'

Download or read book Fluent Forever written by Gabriel Wyner and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • For anyone who wants to learn a foreign language, this is the method that will finally make the words stick. “A brilliant and thoroughly modern guide to learning new languages.”—Gary Marcus, cognitive psychologist and author of the New York Times bestseller Guitar Zero At thirty years old, Gabriel Wyner speaks six languages fluently. He didn’t learn them in school—who does? Rather, he learned them in the past few years, working on his own and practicing on the subway, using simple techniques and free online resources—and here he wants to show others what he’s discovered. Starting with pronunciation, you’ll learn how to rewire your ears and turn foreign sounds into familiar sounds. You’ll retrain your tongue to produce those sounds accurately, using tricks from opera singers and actors. Next, you’ll begin to tackle words, and connect sounds and spellings to imagery rather than translations, which will enable you to think in a foreign language. And with the help of sophisticated spaced-repetition techniques, you’ll be able to memorize hundreds of words a month in minutes every day. This is brain hacking at its most exciting, taking what we know about neuroscience and linguistics and using it to create the most efficient and enjoyable way to learn a foreign language in the spare minutes of your day.

Book excerpt: A wealthy prince burdened by the weight of his royal duties. A determined reporter relentlessly chasing her next breaking story. An electrifying night of desire that ignites a scandalous inferno. I’m Prince Stellan, known to the world as the handsome heir to the Danish throne. I’m serious, studious, and single. I bear the heavy weight of my family’s expectations and every single move I make is mobbed by the press. So when I have the chance to go incognito for a night of partying in New York City, I jump at it. Desperate for a brief escape, I venture into the enigmatic realm of an underground nightclub. Surrounded by the pulsating lights and rhythmic beats, my gaze locks onto Margot. She’s a mesmerizing beauty with vivid pink hair and a fierce glint in her eyes. Her spirited nature and alluring dance moves captivate me instantly. The chemistry between us is insane from the beginning. I know that I can’t court Margot seriously. She’s a commoner. And even worse, she’s an American. My family expects me to choose a noble Danish bride. So I lie about my identity and bring her back to my hotel for a night that neither of us will ever forget. In the morning, before I can sneak Margot out of my hotel room, the paparazzi invade. Soon, the secret of my royal lineage is revealed. But the real stunner comes from pretty little Margot. She’s a reporter for a New York City newspaper who has stumbled onto what could be a huge story about a playboy prince. Bad press is the last thing I need right now. So I offer Margot a deal. A prestigious job in Copenhagen and a luxurious stipend, in exchange for pretending to follow me around for a months’ long lifestyle article. I’m notoriously close mouthed around the press, so a story about me will be a real feather in her cap. All she has to do is say yes… From Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Vivian Wood comes a new royalty-enemies to lovers-billionaire romance.

This will allow you to get the reading practice you need in Italian and quickly get answers when you can't seem to figure out the corresponding word or phrase..

As a result, you'll have a smoother reading experience. "Alice nel Paese delle Mareviglie" is about 27.000 words long. The story is written out of just 2270 different lemma ́s (a lemma is the dictionary form of a word), making it a great book for beginner to intermediate language learners. To further aid you with learning Italian, we added two Italian to English dictionaries in the back of the book, made specifically for this story. Frequency Dictionary One dictionary is based on word frequency. We analyzed the Italian version and listed all the words by how often they are used. Study the most common words, and see how far you can come without resorting to the translation. You can also find an alphabetical learner ́s dictionary in the back, which is helpful for looking up the meaning of a word rather than relying on how it's translated in context. Alphabetical Dictionary If you encounter a Italian word you don ́t know, and you can't deduce it's meaning through context or require extra clarification, flip towards the back of the book where you can look it up alphabetically. Plus, you may find yourself wondering: What is the correct pronunciation of this word in Italian? That is why we included IPA phonetic transcriptions of Italian words in our alphabetical dictionary.
