Book excerpt: The only novel by the twentieth century's most acclaimed surrealist painter, a richly visual depiction of a group of eccentric aristocrats in the years preceding World War II “The book is so full of visual invention, so witty, so charged with an almost Dickensian energy that it's difficult not to accept its author's own arrogant evaluation of himself as a genius.” — Observer In swirling, surreal prose, the iconic artist Salvador Dalí portrays the intrigues and love affairs of a group of eccentric aristocrats who, in their luxury and extravagance, symbolize decadent Europe in the 1930s. In the shadow of encroaching war, their tangled lives provide a thrilling vehicle for Dalí's uniquely spirited imagination and artistic vision. Hidden Faces beckons readers to enter the bizarre world already familiar to us from Dali's paintings. The story unfolds in vividly visual terms, beginning in the Paris riots of February 1934. The journey leading to the closing days of the Second World War constitutes a brilliant and dramatic vehicle for Dali's unique vision. “Start the first page and you are in the presence of an old-fashioned baroque novel, intelligent, extravagant, as photographically precise as his paintings but not so silly ... Dali notices everything ...” — Guardian

Download or read book The Hidden Faces of Courage written by Peter C. Wilcox and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-01-16 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mother Teresa said, “to have courage for whatever comes in life—everything lies in that.” When people think about courage, they often think about those who put their lives on the line for us every day, like first responders, firefighters, or police officers. But there are so many others who quietly endure, with steadfast courage, whatever comes their way in life. These people are like the anawhim in the Old Testament—the good, kind people whom very few know about, but who trust in the Lord. He is their strength. It is because of their faith in him that they live their lives with courage to face whatever comes their way. In over thirty years as a psychotherapist and spiritual director, Wilcox has often been amazed at the strength and courage of so many of his clients. Some have faced physical disabilities; others struggle with mental, emotional, or psychological problems; still others with personal, family or career issues. These people are what he calls “the hidden faces of courage.” Often, they are not well-known. They certainly receive no notoriety or press. Yet, they are always there, doing the best they can each day. This book is an invitation to understand and appreciate the unnoticed courage and strength of ordinary people. If we can “walk in their shoes,” it will help us to be courageous for whatever comes to us in life.

Download or read book Worshipers Masks The Hidden Faces of Success written by Onesimus Malatji and published by Onesimus Malatji. This book was released on 2023-11-18 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Worshipers' Masks: The Hidden Faces of Success" is an intense and introspective journey into the heart of ambition and the steep cost of triumph. The narrative follows a protagonist deeply committed to their quest for success, navigating a treacherous world where admiration is intertwined with envy, and support is often a facade for sabotage. Set against the backdrop of a highly competitive environment—be it the corporate world, artistic circles, or any realm where success is visibly rewarded and coveted—the story delves into the complex dynamics of relationships shaped by the pursuit of excellence. The protagonist encounters a variety of characters who embody the “worshipers' masks”—colleagues, rivals, friends, and even family members—who, under the guise of support, harbor resentment and destructive intentions. The plot intricately weaves through experiences of deceit, betrayal, and moral dilemmas, highlighting the protagonist's inner turmoil and resilience. Key themes include the irony of adulation and jealousy, the psychological battles behind apparent achievements, and the resilience required to withstand the onslaught of hidden enemies. Symbolism is a strong element in the narrative, with masks, mirrors, and shadows representing the duplicity and hidden intentions of those surrounding the protagonist. Dialogues and interactions are crafted to subtly reveal underlying tensions and conflicts, adding layers of depth to character interactions. As the story moves towards its climax, a significant betrayal tests the protagonist’s beliefs and resolve, leading to a nuanced understanding of success and human nature. The resolution is reflective, possibly open-ended, leaving readers to ponder the nature of success, the complexities of human relationships, and the thin line between admiration and envy. "Worshipers' Masks: The Hidden Faces of Success" is not just a story about achieving greatness but also a profound exploration of the emotional and ethical landscapes navigated in the quest for such greatness. It's a narrative that resonates with anyone who has ever strived for success, only to find that the journey is as fraught with challenges as it is with triumphs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electric Literature 25 Best Novels of 2014 Largehearted Boy Favorite Novels of 2014 "An extraordinary new literary talent."--The Daily Telegraph "In part a portrait of the artist as a young woman, this deceptively modest-seeming, astonishingly inventive novel creates an extraordinary intimacy, a sensibility so alive it quietly takes over all your senses, quivering through your nerve endings, opening your eyes and heart. Youth, from unruly student years to early motherhood and a loving marriage--and then, in the book's second half, wilder and something else altogether, the fearless, half-mad imagination of youth, I might as well call it—has rarely been so freshly, charmingly, and unforgettably portrayed. Valeria Luiselli is a masterful, entirely original writer."--Francisco Goldman In Mexico City, a young mother is writing a novel of her days as a translator living in New York. In Harlem, a translator is desperate to publish the works of Gilberto Owen, an obscure Mexican poet. And in Philadelphia, Gilberto Owen recalls his friendship with Lorca, and the young woman he saw in the windows of passing trains. Valeria Luiselli's debut signals the arrival of a major international writer and an unexpected and necessary voice in contemporary fiction. "Luiselli's haunting debut novel, about a young mother living in Mexico City who writes a novel looking back on her time spent working as a translator of obscure works at a small independent press in Harlem, erodes the concrete borders of everyday life with a beautiful, melancholy contemplation of disappearance. . . . Luiselli plays with the idea of time and identity with grace and intuition." —Publishers Weekly

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As I drew, the house felt eerie in its silence. . . . A strange sense stole over me, as though Bland and I were two actors on stage, our movements spotlighted, black emptiness between us. But that darkness grew smaller as the space between us shrank. I did not know if this sense was due to my immersion in Bland’s face and mind and world, or to my fear of his threatening presence. Or both . . . The nerves between my shoulder blades began to tingle. Help me, God. Please. For twenty years, a killer has eluded capture for a brutal double murder. Now, forensic artist Annie Kingston has agreed to draw the updated face of Bill Bland for the popular television show American Fugitive. To do so, Annie must immerse herself in Bland’s traits and personality. A single habitual expression could alter the way his face has aged. But as she descends into his criminal mind and world, someone is determined to stop her. At any cost. Annie’s one hope is to complete the drawing and pray it leads authorities to Bland—before Bland can get to her. Brandilyn Collins is the bestselling author of Brink of Death, Eyes of Elisha, and other novels. She and her family divide their time between the California Bay Area and Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.
