Molly Giles, whose many awards for fiction include two Pushcart Prizes and an NEA grant, is a charming and sharp-witted guide to these women's adventures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemistry and Other Stories, A Picador Paperback Original From the pre-eminent chronicler of this forgotten territory, stories that range over one hundred years in the troubled, violent emergence of the New South. In Ron Rash's stories, spanning the entire twentieth century in Appalachia, rural communities struggle with the arrival of a new era. Three old men stalk the shadow of a giant fish no one else believes is there. A man takes up scuba diving in the town reservoir to fight off a killing depression. A grieving mother leads a surveyor into the woods to name once and for all the county where her son was murdered by thieves. In the Appalachia of Ron Rash's stories, the collision of the old and new south, of antique and modern, resonate with the depth and power of ancient myths.

Download or read book Tales Myths and Other Stories written by Dennis Nanni and published by Dennis Nanni. This book was released on 2008-08 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tales, Myths & Other Stories came about as a result of home-schooling my son, Dhanvantari. His assignments included using his imagination to recreate and explore ancient mythology and literature: Plato, the Srimad Bhagavatam, the Decameron, and other tales. More material came from real-life locations in Tennessee and from incidents such as the Roswell UFO crash in 1947. The stories include themes of mythology, science fiction, adventure, and family. There is humor and emotion in every story. As much as possible, I tried to avoid violence, except as an historical footnote, in order to promote a more peaceful mindset for a better world. My sister Debbi, a professional educator, has often told me that reading is becoming a lost art among young people, and it is my hope that this collection of stories will promote a new love of literature and a more vivid imagination among all those who enjoy it.
