Book Synopsis A Silence in the City and Other Stories by : Marie Cruz Gabriel
Download or read book A Silence in the City and Other Stories written by Marie Cruz Gabriel and published by Orient Blackswan. This book was released on 1996 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warm and witty, poignant and chilling by turns, here is a collection of twelve short stories as diverse as life itself. The settings are Indian no doubt, yet also universal in the human types and emotions so deftly and engagingly captured. What these stories have in common is a quiet, restrained, direct and simple style; deceptively simple and quiet however, for the evocation of place and atmosphere is vivid and the context packed with meaning: at times emotional, at times violent, at times muted, or even humorous, but never bland. The racy narrative carries the reader past many a sharp turn and anxious moment with a swift and graceful ease which makes reading this work a delight. Gabriel s use of traditional forms and techniques and his use of Indian settings make his work seem like a pleasing blend of Somerset Maugham and R.K. Narayan, but a unique and distinctive blend all the same.

Book Synopsis The Girl from the Sea and Other Stories by : Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen

This book was released on 2020-04-29 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories included in this collection are classics of children's literature and have been cherished by generations of Portuguese children. This is the first time these stories have been translated into English. The author is one of Portugal's greatest poets and, like her poetry, these stories are filled with her delight and pleasure in nature, gardens and the sea, as well as her keen sense of the magical. Among other things, we encounter dwarves, diminutive little girls who live on the sea bed, plants that come alive at night, a tree that lives on long after it has been felled, and a pilgrim who discovers much more than the Holy Land. Her themes are, above all, loyalty and friendship.

Book Synopsis The Politics of English as a World Language by :
Download or read book The Politics of English as a World Language written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The complex politics of English as a world language provides the backdrop both for linguistic studies of varieties of English around the world and for postcolonial literary criticism. The present volume offers contributions from linguists and literary scholars that explore this common ground in a spirit of open interdisciplinary dialogue. Leading authorities assess the state of the art to suggest directions for further research, with substantial case studies ranging over a wide variety of topics - from the legitimacy of language norms of lingua franca communication to the recognition of newer post-colonial varieties of English in the online OED. Four regional sections treat the Caribbean (including the diaspora), Africa, the Indian subcontinent, and Australasia and the Pacific Rim. Each section maintains a careful balance between linguistics and literature, and external and indigenous perspectives on issues. The book is the most balanced, complete and up-to-date treatment of the topic to date.

Book Synopsis Letter from an Unknown Woman and Other Stories by : Stefan Zweig

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These four Stefan Zweig stories, newly translated by the award-winning Anthea Bell, are among his most celebrated and compelling work. The titular tale is a devastating depiction of unrequited love, which inspired a classic Hollywood film, directed by Max Ophüls and starring Joane Fontaine. Elsewhere in the collection, a young man mistakes the girl he loves for her sister, two erstwhile lovers meet after an age spent apart, and a married woman repays a debt of gratitude to her childhood sweetheart. Expertly paced, laced with the acutely accurate psychological detail and empathy that are Zweig's trademarks, this is a powerful addition to Pushkin's growing collection of his work. From the Trade Paperback edition.

But even evil queens get lonely. And even goodly councilmen get angry. And often innocent children get caught in between. When father falls can daughter rise?
