Book Synopsis A Week at St-André by : Alec Nesbitt
Download or read book A Week at St-André written by Alec Nesbitt and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-07 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Old Sir Julian Sparrow is suddenly killed. His son, Vivian, inherits the baronetcy, the fortune and-a hostile half-brother he didn't know existed. Summer, 1935. In the village of St-André-le-Placide a ten-year-old boy's racing pigeons and two tormented women set events in motion that lead to murder even as a "grand passion" is born. In the ancient Chateau Sir Vivian Sparrow and his sister Angela are greeted with graciousness, brooding hostility and by Angela's chic and adorable friend who drives a dangerously fast Bugatti. A Week at St-André vividly contrasts the greed and cruelty of one man to the noble spirit of his nemesis; the hopelessness of one wife to the compassionate understanding of another. This elegant story, set in the Atlantic coastal region of France, evokes the styles and foibles of the aged Third Republic. Two children, separated by social class, become bound to one another as witnesses to a terrifying incident. The fashions, cuisine and motor-cars in the story impart rich detail to a thoroughly convincing creation of time and place. As counterpoint to the book's somber mysteries, two charming patrician personalities pursue their exuberant sensual pleasure unfettered by the mores of the time.

Book Synopsis Saints Preserved by : Thomas J. Craughwell

Book excerpt: A “fascinating” (HuffPost) tour of the sometimes surprising ancient relics left behind in the modern world, from the Crown of Thrones at Notre Dame to the skeleton of a Roman martyr enshrined in a cathedral in Los Angeles. A finger, a lock of hair, a crucifix, a chalice—if such items belonged to a saint, they are considered to be relics and as such are venerated by the Catholic Church. Anyone who thinks that relics are remnants of the Middle Ages should log on to eBay. On any day of the week the online shopper will find a thriving business in the sale of these items, ranging from the dust from the tomb of Christ to splinters of the True Cross to bone fragments of countless holy men and women. In Saints Preserved: An Encyclopedia of Relics, author Thomas J. Craughwell takes us on an exhilarating journey through the life and death of more than three hundred saints and along the way enlightens us about the sometimes strange bits and pieces that the saints left behind. Including entries on the famous (Saint Peter, Saint Francis, Saint Thérèse of Lisieux) and the not so famous (Saint Foy, Saint Sicaire, Saint Chrysogonus), Saints Preserved also features information on such notable relics as the Holy House where Jesus, Mary, and Joseph lived; the Holy Grail; and the seven places that claim to possess the head of Saint John the Baptist—among them a mosque in Damascus. Moreover, this book includes major relics that are enshrined in the United States. From the extraordinary Aachen relics to the remains of Saint Zita, Saints Preserved is an indispensable compendium for spiritual seekers, history buffs, and anyone interested in deepening their understanding of the Catholic faith.

Download or read book The Common Touch written by Adrian Roscoe and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-11 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning where volume one of The Common Touch leaves off, selections of English popular literature from the Restoration to the mid-years of the eighteenth century are offered in this second and final volume. However, while interest in such traditional literary types as the ballad and chapbook continued unabated in this period, new forms began to emerge, with the popularity of journals and novels reflecting not only a more diversified readership, but also the rise of prose as a medium for public debate and entertainment. With increasing middle-class literacy filtering down to servants and apprentices, moreover, the voices of the destitute and the social outcast could be increasingly heard, marking a shift from high-born to low-born, from town to country and from men to women (and children) – culminating in the Romantic movement at the end of the century.
