Mind that man Pringle goes on with his work, and don't let me have any fault to find about your reading. When you go home tell them to give you something to eat, for there will be no regular dinner to-day, as I shall be out. Take home any letters that may come, in case I don't look in.”[...]".

Book excerpt: “I wish I wasn't such a fool!”Tom Blount said this to himself as he balanced that self upon a high stool at a desk in his uncle's office in Gray's Inn. There was a big book lying open, one which he had to study, but it did not interest him; and though he tried very hard to keep his attention fixed upon its learned words, invaluable to one who would some day bloom into a family solicitor, that book would keep on forming pictures that were not illustrations of legal practice in the courts of law. For there one moment was the big black pond on Elleston Common, where the water lay so still and deep under the huge elms, and the fat tench and eels every now and then sent up bubbles of air, dislodged as they disturbed the bottom.At another time it would be the cricket-field in summer, or the football on the common in winter, or the ringing ice on the winding river, with the skates flashing as they sent the white powder flying before the wind.Or again, as he stumbled through the opinions of the judge in “Coopendale versus Drabb's Exors.,” the old house and garden would stand out from the page like a miniature seen on the ground-glass of a camera; and Tom Blount sighed and his eyes grew dim as he thought of the old happy days in the pleasant home. For father and mother both had passed away to their rest; the house was occupied by another tenant; and he, Tom Blount, told himself that he ought to be very grateful to Uncle James for taking him into his office, to make a man of him by promising to have him articled if, during his year of probation, he proved himself worthy.

Book excerpt: The thrilling adventure book "The Vast Abyss" by George Manville Fenn is about younger Dick Trevanion's adventures. When the tale begins, it takes area on a sea journey and includes exploration. It is broadly speaking about Captain Chunder's treasure-searching day trip to Antarctica. Trevanion sets out in this dangerous adventure with a big group of human beings. They need to deal with hard conditions within the harsh, icy Antarctic environment because the tale is going on. Aside from dangerous weather, antagonistic local human beings, and the horrifying mysteries that lie inside the uncharted regions, the team faces some of challenges. As the story goes on, Trevanion indicates that he is ingenious and sturdy when matters go incorrect, navigating through the dangers and secrets of the uncharted Antarctic wastelands. As the characters face the unknown, the tale is going past simply showing how tough the journey is on our bodies. It also suggests how their minds and feelings are affected. To maintain the reader's interest, Fenn skillfully combines elements of journey, threat, and tension, vividly describing the journey's problems and Antarctica's untouched splendor. The book "The Vast Abyss" shows how desirable Fenn is at writing experience tales which are both exciting and show how strong the human spirit is within the face of uncertainty.

Download or read book So Far So Good written by Ursula K. Le Guin and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ursula K. Le Guin, loved by millions for her fantasy and science-fiction novels, ponders life, death and the vast beyond in So Far So Good, an astute, charming collection finished weeks before her death in January, 2018. Fans will recognize some of the motifs here—cats, wind, strong women — as well as her exploration of the intersection between soul and body, the knowable and the unknown. The writing is clear, artful and reverent as Le Guin looks back at key memories and concerns and looks forward to what is next: 'Spirit, rehearse the journey of the body/ that are to come, the motions/ of the matter that held you.'"―Washington Post "Le Guin’s farewell poetry collection, contains all that created her reputation for fiction—sharp insight, restless imagination, humor that is both mordant and humane, and, above all else, that connection to all creation, that 'immense what is'."—New York Journal of Books “It’s hard to think of another living author who has written so well for so long in so many styles as Ursula K. Le Guin.” —Salon “She never loses touch with her reverence for the immense what is.” —Margaret Atwood “There is no writer with an imagination as forceful and delicate as Le Guin’s.” —Grace Paley Legendary author Ursula K. Le Guin was lauded by millions for her ground- breaking science fiction novels, but she began as a poet, and wrote across genres for her entire career. In this clarifying and sublime collection—completed shortly before her death in 2018—Le Guin is unflinching in the face of mor- tality, and full of wonder for the mysteries beyond. Redolent of the lush natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest, with rich sounds playfully echoing myth and nursery rhyme, Le Guin bookends a long, daring, and prolific career. From “How it Seems to Me”: In the vast abyss before time, self is not, and soul commingles with mist, and rock, and light. In time, soul brings the misty self to be. Then slow time hardens self to stone while ever lightening the soul, till soul can loose its hold of self . . . Ursula K. Le Guin is the author of over sixty novels, short fiction works, translations, and volumes of poetry, including the acclaimed novels The Left Hand of Darkness and The Dispossessed. Her books continue to sell millions of copies worldwide. Le Guin died in 2018 in her home in Portland, Oregon.

Book excerpt: Contrary to Darko Suvin’s claim that science fiction contains revolutionary political potential, while fantasy literature does not, this dissertation will argue that fantasy literature—particularly its power to create alternative worlds between which the consciousness of the reader may move—is of fundamental importance to the creation of what I call “apocalyptic consciousness,” the ability to break from the conventional understanding of the world and provides a clean slate to imagine alternative political formulations.

Book excerpt: With the discovery of the hyperdrive, mankind at last possessed the means of going out to the stars. Four expeditions had already gone by the fine the fifth starship left Pluto for Vega. Carrying its complement of scientists and military personnel, they arrived at the solar system of Vega to find one planet sufficiently like Earth to allow them to land. Here, they discovered mystery. The ruins of great cities built on the shattered remains of still earlier fortresses, showing that some great race of conquerors had passed that way sometime in the past thirty thousand years. No life now remained on this planet and speeding to the next sun, they found a civilisation which possessed powers so utterly strange to them that one native almost succeeded in destroying them and taking over the ship. And still the mystery remained, for the legends of the planet spoke of a race of gods who had come down from the stars twenty thousand years before. It was not until they reached the planet of a red giant sun that they ran into a race of creatures so fantastically alien that there was no defence against them, and they learned the real identity of the race which had conquered the stars millennia before...
