'Madhu Sharma shows promise as a poet as she is well able to portray deep inner emotions. The poems speak of an intense spiritual quest.' - Dr. Karan Singh, Crown Prince of the erstwhile Princely State of Jammu & Kashmir, eminent statesman, philanthropist and poet. These Poems are brimming with love. After reading a few, the words start disappearing. A feel and a trance remains. I could constantly hear the notes of a flute from a distance. The Poet has a transparent soul and the mind of Sufi. She writes... Life, You are the bridge between I and me. You are the one that slides The I into me, and Glides the me into I. - Gulzar, renowned poet, lyricist, author, screen-writer and film director. Recipient of Padma Bhushan, Oscar, Grammy and many other awards. ‘Just like there is room for music beyond technical brilliance and firework mastery, there is a world of expression beyond literature. Appeal, aesthetics, poise are all musical terms for me - so evident in the poetry of Madhu Sharmaji. A true bouquet of words.’ - Ustad Amjad Ali Khan, Padma Vibhushan and internationally acclaimed sarod virtuoso.

  • ISBN : 9780810849518
  • Pages : 180 pages

Download or read book Jeremiad Jottings written by Blaise Cronin and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his Jeremiad Jottings, Blaise Cronin presents a collection of essays that touch upon a range of issues, spanning from affirmative action to academic dress. Tackling the ever-increasing power that "political correctness" holds in institutions of higher education, Cronin defines its influence by writing op-ed style essays delving into sometimes highly divisive topics from recents news and events. His essays encompass light-hearted topics such as "Mangled Metaphors," pointing to the advertisement industry's use of metaphors, and more popularly serious issues in "Burned Any Good Books Lately?", an essay dealing with book burning. Although easily approachable by the non-scholar, each of Cronin's essays is abundant with references that will lead any reader to the right area of interest if necessary. Cronin's light tone and clear presentation will appeal to many readers.

Book Split

  • Author : Lisa Michaels
  • Publisher : Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
  • Release : 1999
  • ISBN : 9780395957882
  • Pages : 324 pages

Download or read book Split written by Lisa Michaels and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 1999 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this "disarmingly amiable reminiscence" (The Atlantic Monthly) that "may be the best argument for the left since Marx" (The New Yorker), poet and writer Lisa Michaels blends memoir with social commentary to tell a remarkable tale of growing up as a child of political activists during the early seventies. Michaels's upbringing was marked by communes, rallies, and road trips; as a young girl she traveled across the country with her mother and stepfather in a customized mail truck, complete with a wood stove, while her father spent two years in jail for his part in an antiwar protest. Raised in a rural California town, Michaels craved conformity, but eventually she came to share many of her parents' long-held values. By a writer of uncommon perception, SPLIT offers "a rare glimpse of a life that embodies a time" (Vogue).

Book The Iron Pen

    Book Details:
  • Author : Julia Epstein
  • Publisher : Univ of Wisconsin Press
  • Release : 1989
  • ISBN : 9780299119447
  • Pages : 292 pages

Download or read book The Iron Pen written by Julia Epstein and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best known as a novelist and social satirist whose work anticipated Jane Austen's, Frances Burney (1752-1840) has also been recognized as an important writer in the history of feminist literature. Julia Epstein now offers a new interpretation of Burney and her work: that Burney's anger at the economic and social conditions of women emerges in her writing in moments of barely contained violence, and that her representations of violence and hostility provide a key to Burney's literary power. The Iron Pen situates Burney's writings within the sociopolitical context of the late eighteenth century and proposes a new approach to the development of the novel of manners. In addition, Epstein presents a comprehensive study of the reception of Burney's work from its original publication to the present. This study illuminates the history of popular book reviewing and of academic literary scholarship as political enterprises. Beginning with an examination of Burney's journals and letters, including an account of the mastectomy she underwent without anesthesia while in exile in Paris in 1811, Epstein then offers readings of Burney's four novels, paying close attention to the depiction of repressed anger and violence that characterizes all her work. The final section traces critics' responses to Burney's published writings from 1778, when her first novel, Evelina, appeared anonymously, to the present in readings informed by psychoanalysis, post-structuralism and feminist literary theory. Drawing upon the work of critics of eighteenth-century culture such as Mary Poovey, Ellen Pollak, Ruth Perry, and Margaret Doody, Epstein is successful in two ways: in combining an analysis of a set of texts with an analysis of a particular set of cultural assumptions and in her intentional underscoring of the complex nature of critical practice.
