Download or read book Around the World in 80 Books written by David Damrosch and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2021-11-04 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Restlessly curious, insightful, and quirky, David Damrosch is the perfect guide to a round-the-world adventure in reading' Stephen Greenblatt A transporting and illuminating voyage around the globe, told through eighty classic and modern books 'It is always a pleasure to talk about books with David Damrosch, who has read all of them, and he is so eloquent and understanding about them all' Orhan Pamuk Inspired by Jules Verne's hero Phileas Fogg, David Damrosch, chair of Harvard's Department of Comparative Literature and founder of Harvard's Institute for World Literature, set out to counter a pandemic's restrictions on travel by exploring eighty exceptional books from around the globe. Following a literary itinerary from London to Venice, Tehran and points beyond, and via authors from Woolf and Dante to Nobel prizewinners Orhan Pamuk, Wole Soyinka, Mo Yan and Olga Tokarczuk, he explores how these works have shaped our idea of the world, and the ways the world bleeds into literature. To chart the expansive landscape of world literature today, Damrosch explores how writers live in two very different worlds: the world of their personal experience, and the world of books that have enabled great writers to give shape and meaning to their lives. In his literary cartography, Damrosch includes compelling contemporary works as well as perennial classics, hard-bitten crime fiction as well as haunting works of fantasy, and the formative tales that introduce us as children to the world we're entering. Taken together, these eighty titles offer us fresh perspective on perennial problems, from the social consequences of epidemics to the rising inequality that Thomas More designed Utopia to combat and the patriarchal structures within and against which many of these books' heroines have to struggle, from the work of Murasaki Shikibu a millennium ago to that of Margaret Atwood today. Around the World in 80 Books is a global invitation to look beyond ourselves and our surroundings, and to see our world and its literature in new ways.

Book Synopsis Around the World in 80 Trees by : Jonathan Drori
Download or read book Around the World in 80 Trees written by Jonathan Drori and published by Laurence King Publishing. This book was released on 2020-08-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trees are one of humanity's most constant and most varied companions. From India's sacred banyan tree to the fragrant cedar of Lebanon, they offer us sanctuary and inspiration—not to mention the raw materials for everything from aspirin to maple syrup. In Around the World in 80 Trees, expert Jonathan Drori uses plant science to illuminate how trees play a role in every part of human life, from the romantic to the regrettable. Stops on the trip include the lime trees of Berlin's Unter den Linden boulevard, which intoxicate amorous Germans and hungry bees alike, the swankiest streets in nineteenth-century London, which were paved with Australian eucalyptus wood, and the redwood forests of California, where the secret to the trees' soaring heights can be found in the properties of the tiniest drops of water. Each of these strange and true tales—populated by self-mummifying monks, tree-climbing goats and ever-so-slightly radioactive nuts—is illustrated by Lucille Clerc, taking the reader on a journey that is as informative as it is beautiful.

Book excerpt: Mr. Phileas Fogg lived, in 1872, at No. 7, Saville Row, Burlington Gardens, the house in which Sheridan died in 1814. He was one of the most noticeable members of the Reform Club, though he seemed always to avoid attracting attention; an enigmatical personage, about whom little was known, except that he was a polished man of the world. People said that he resembled Byron-at least that his head was Byronic; but he was a bearded, tranquil Byron, who might live on a thousand years without growing old.
Book Synopsis Around the World in 80 Girls by : Neil Skywalker
Download or read book Around the World in 80 Girls written by Neil Skywalker and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-04-03 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ***Warning*** This is not the 2012 bestselling travel book "Around the World in 80 Girls - The Epic 3 Year Trip of a backpacking Casanova" This is the screenplay based on that book in original screenplay size. Leaving his small country of The Netherlands, Neil Skywalker took a risk and embarked on a three-year, 42-country experimental excursion. With a shy demeanor and limited budget, Skywalker overcame his approach anxiety, navigated foreign countries, and most importantly, learned to close the deal on hot women across the globe. After completing his epic tale of adventure, love, hard-learned lessons-and yes, even heartbreak, Neil wrote a bestselling book and a screenplay based on his popular travel adventure for men. Skywalker's next endeavor took him from Holland to Hollywood in what turned out to be a short and dramatic tale of hopes and dreams, golden but broken promises, nice offers and paychecks but no movie.
