Download or read book Love Stories written by Diana Secker Tesdell and published by Everyman's Library. This book was released on 2009-01-13 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An anthology of literary love stories—in a beautiful hardcover Pocket Classics edition—perfect for Valentine’s Day. Here are nineteen stories from a rich array of writers, and here is every kind of romantic entanglement: from the raw, erotic passion of D. H. Lawrence and Colette to the wickedly cynical comedy of Dorothy Parker and Roald Dahl, from the yearning of unrequited romantic illusions in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “Winter Dreams” to the agonizing madness of jealousy in Vladimir Nabokov’s “That in Aleppo Once . . .” The objects of passion in these stories range from a glamorous silent-movie starlet in Elizabeth Bowen’s haunting “Dead Mabelle” and a faithful ghost in Yasunari Kawabata's "Immortality" to a heart surgeon in Margaret Atwood’s “Bluebeard’s Egg” who spends his days penetrating the mysteries of the human heart but who seems oddly emotionally opaque himself. Jhumpa Lahiri plumbs the despair of a husband and wife sundered by tragedy while Lorrie Moore movingly portrays a couple brought together by it. Katherine Mansfield, Tobias Wolff, and William Trevor explore the intricacies of long-term relationships, while Guy de Maupassant, Italo Calvino, and T. C. Boyle portray the elemental force of love in extremely different ways. As alluring, moving, and intoxicating as its timeless theme, this collection makes an enticing gift for lovers at any stage of life.

Book excerpt: "A heartfelt and exciting debut...a wise and honest story of how it feels to be a young woman in search of yourself."—Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times bestselling author of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and Malibu Rising The Bookish Life of Nina Hill meets Younger in a heartfelt debut following a young woman who discovers she'll have to ditch the "dream job" and write her own story to find her happy ending. Meet Nora Hughes—the overworked, underpaid, last bookish assistant standing. At least for now. When Nora landed an editorial assistant position at Parsons Press, it was her first step towards The Dream Job. Because, honestly, is there anything dreamier than making books for a living? But after five years of lunch orders, finicky authors, and per my last emails, Nora has come to one grand conclusion: Dream Jobs do not exist. With her life spiraling and the Parsons staff sinking, Nora gets hit with even worse news. Parsons is cutting her already unlivable salary. Unable to afford her rent and without even the novels she once loved as a comfort, Nora decides to moonlight for a rival publisher to make ends meet...and maybe poach some Parsons' authors along the way. But when Andrew Santos, a bestselling Parsons author no one can afford to lose is thrown into the mix, Nora has to decide where her loyalties lie. Her new Dream Job, ever-optimistic Andrew, or...herself and her future. Your next book club read touching on mental health, happiness, and the peaks and perils of being a young woman just trying to figure it all out. Nora Hughes is the perfect heroine for anyone looking to get past their own chapter twenty-something and build their storybook life. "A tender reflection on finding your person while you're still desperately searching for yourself."—KJ Dell'Antonia, New York Times bestselling author of The Chicken Sisters "A book for book lovers... It's impossible not to root for Nora!"—Jesse Q. Sutanto, National Bestselling author of Dial A for Aunties

Love's Obsession: The mirror showed a girl her true love. Girls rushed to check their reflection, hoping to see if the stories were true. Not Doris. She had no interest in finding her true love. Derrick said he loved her, but when she did not return his feelings, his so-called love turned into an obsession that took the lives of her mother and step-father. Mark Black Feather was pleasantly surprised to see the magic mirror reveal the face of his true love. He never expected she’d be unhappy to see him, or that her life would be in danger from a madman. Can true love grow surrounded by tragedy and danger, or will one man’s obsession end their love before it can truly begin? Love's Memory: Silas watched his family grow larger from all the marriages and children. He wondered when his time would come, but a part of his mind couldn’t let go of a memory from long ago, of a beautiful girl. He called her his woodland sprite, but where had she gone, and would he ever see her again? May struggled against the unwanted advances of the man her mother wanted her to marry. She did not love him. Her memories were full of the vision of a boy she loved from afar, but her family had left that place long ago. She never expected to see him again, especially not in the reflection of the magic mirror. Love's Gamble: Widowed at a young age and left to raise a baby by herself, Lanie was abandoned by her family when she needed them the most. She worked two full time jobs to make ends meet. But she had her son. For her, that was enough. Then, as her fragile world began to crumble around her, a stranger swept in with the promise of a better life. Marcel knew all about true love. His family was full of stories of how magical the bond could be and how unexpectedly it could appear in one's life, so when he met the young waitress on his way back home, he recognized their connection instantly. Seeing her struggle, he opened his home and heart to Lanie and her son. But can she learn to trust in a future of hope and love, when the past has been so bleak? Love's Plea: Charise got together with her closest friends to have a good time and prepare for the wedding. But this restaurant was special: it showcased one of the three magic mirrors, capable of showing a girl her true love. All the girls took their turns at the mirror, and then it was Charise’s turn. But what do you do when you are the bride, and the reflection you see in the mirror is not that of your soon to be husband? Love's Promise: Mona could use a little magic in her life. With a sick mom, younger siblings to look after, and a stepfather who worked hard to make ends meet, her life was far from magical. Those she knew who met their true love through the mirror saw a promise of a brighter future. Mona looked in the mirror time and again, with no luck. She saw a reminder of her own loneliness and dismal life. Then, one day, the image changed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Irresistible Love Series includes the following full length novels: IRRESISTIBLE NIGHTS: It was supposed to be nothing more than a hot, steamy one night stand. No names. No strings. Until I found out that he’s my father’s new business partner. He was a gorgeous, sexy real estate magnate over twenty years older than me. I was a young businesswoman looking for an uncomplicated, good time. He gave me that, and so much more. We shared one sinfully hot night together and I tip-toed out of his life, leaving just a thank you note behind. I thought I’d never see him again, until he showed up the following afternoon. With my father, who introduced him as his new business partner. IRRESISTIBLE AFFAIR: Sleeping with my best friend’s dad never should have happened, but it did and I don’t regret a thing. Not when he’d given me the hottest, most decadent night of my life. I’ve been in love with him for years, but for as confident and demanding as he is in the bedroom, once the sheets have cooled he’s riddled with misgivings. He’s already done the marriage and family thing, and he insists I deserve that, too . . . with another man who isn’t old enough to be my daddy. I don’t agree, and I’m just going to have to convince him otherwise—that I’m everything he wants and needs despite the obstacles standing in our way. IRRESISTIBLE SEDUCTION: When I’d run into Nick Pallas at an old friend’s wedding, I’d been grateful to have someone to talk to and dance with—especially a hot Greek of a guy I’d harbored a secret crush on for years. After a recent break-up, it was nice to feel wanted and desired. I wasn’t looking for anything serious, and he definitely gave me a night to remember. Except Nick wanted more than just that one night, and I wasn’t prepared for his brand of seduction—the way he made me feel, physically and emotionally. Resisting him was impossible, yet trusting another man with my heart wasn’t so easy . . .

Download or read book Reading Like a Writer written by Francine Prose and published by Union Books. This book was released on 2012-04-01 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her entertaining and edifying New York Times bestseller, acclaimed author Francine Prose invites you to sit by her side and take a guided tour of the tools and tricks of the masters to discover why their work has endured. Written with passion, humour and wisdom, Reading Like a Writer will inspire readers to return to literature with a fresh eye and an eager heart – to take pleasure in the long and magnificent sentences of Philip Roth and the breathtaking paragraphs of Isaac Babel; to look to John le Carré for a lesson in how to advance plot through dialogue and to Flannery O’ Connor for the cunning use of the telling detail; to be inspired by Emily Brontë ’ s structural nuance and Charles Dickens’ s deceptively simple narrative techniques. Most importantly, Prose cautions readers to slow down and pay attention to words, the raw material out of which all literature is crafted, and reminds us that good writing comes out of good reading.
