Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cobwebs in the Sky is a powerful narrative of four friends who evolve gradually from women with normal weaknesses and foibles into women of substance. Cutting across generations, the novel emphasizes that the basic sense of values has not changed over the years. The core of the problems and pitfalls of each succeeding generation continues to be love, sex, and marriage, which spawn emotions and actions that are universally similarlust, revenge, deceit, rape, and abuse. These have a great impact on ones destiny and can drive people to acts of great courage and compassion or degrade them to commit the most heinous of crimes. The strong bonds and unstinting trust and faith of family and friends alone provide the strength to cope with and rise above traumatic experiences in life. The harsh reality is that crimes against women have continued to flourish. The book is unique in content and format, the lucid language speaking to a very wide swath of English-reading population all over the world, lending itself very well to translations to reach readers in other countries. Surely, a book that must be read.

Book Synopsis The Now-A-Days Fairy Book - Illustrated by Jessie Willcox Smith by : Anna Alice Chapin
Download or read book The Now-A-Days Fairy Book - Illustrated by Jessie Willcox Smith written by Anna Alice Chapin and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edited by Anna Alice Chapin (1880 – 1920), the Now A Days Fairy Book contains such classic stories as: the Brothers Grimm’s ‘Snow White’ and ‘Little Red Riding Hood’, Charles Perrault’s ‘Beauty and the Beast’ and ‘Sleeping Beauty’, alongside Mme D’Aulnoy’s ‘The Three Bears’ and other less well-known tales such as ‘The Mist Island’ and ‘Fairy Talk.’ All of these wonderful tales are accompanied by colour illustrations by Jessie Willcox Smith, and appear in their original translations. Jessie Willcox Smith (1863 – 1935) was one of the most prominent female illustrators in the United States during the Golden Age of American Illustration. She was also a prolific contributor to literary novels and magazines during the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Most notable was her ongoing relationship with Good Housekeeping, including the long-running ‘Mother Goose’ series. Smith’s style changed drastically through her life. In the beginning of her career she used dark lined borders to delineate brightly coloured objects, and in later works she masterfully softened lines and colours – until they almost disappeared. Presented alongside the text of ‘The ‘Now A Days Fairy Book’, her illustrations further refine and elucidate Chapin’s thoughtfully edited collection. Pook Press celebrates the great ‘Golden Age of Illustration‘ in children’s literature – a period of unparalleled excellence in book illustration from the 1880s to the 1930s. Our collection showcases classic fairy tales, children’s stories, and the work of some of the most celebrated artists, illustrators and authors.
Book Synopsis Puss Junior and the Man in the Moon by : David Cory
Download or read book Puss Junior and the Man in the Moon written by David Cory and published by . This book was released on 1922 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Puss, Jr. travels through New Mother Goose Land to meet his father, he meets new people and has several adventures. All along the way, a little bird preceded him, singing verse to introduce the next character that Puss, Jr. will meet. The road to the Castle of the Lord of Carabas is difficult, for, as Mrs. Tittle Mouse explains, "New Mother Goose Country ... does not offer to us animals the loving care which we received from der Old Mother Goose." Tom Thumb, Jack (who planted the beanstalk), and others tell stories about their adventures. The hen that laid the golden eggs told her side of the story. Puss sat with the Fairy Godmother while Cinderella went to the ball. Mother Goose and her Gander stopped in on their way home, and give Puss, Jr. a ride since her house is on the way to the Castle. They took side trips to visit the Man in the Moon, and other familiar friends. Alas, by the end of the adventures in this book Puss, Jr. has not yet found his father, but perhaps they will meet in the next book.
Book Synopsis The House of Cobwebs by : George Gissing
Download or read book The House of Cobwebs written by George Gissing and published by Prabhat Prakashan. This book was released on 1931-01-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In England during the sixties and seventies of last century the world of books was dominated by one Gargantuan type of fiction. The terms book and novel became almost synonymous in houses which were not Puritan, yet where books and reading, in the era of few and unfree libraries, were strictly circumscribed. George Gissing was no exception to this rule. The English novel was at the summit of its reputation during his boyish days. As a lad of eight or nine he remembered the parts of Our Mutual Friend coming to the house, and could recall the smile of welcome with which they were infallibly received. In the dining-room at home was a handsomely framed picture which he regarded with an almost idolatrous veneration. It was an engraved portrait of Charles Dickens. Some of the best work of George Eliot, Reade, and Trollope was yet to make its appearance; Meredith and Hardy were still the treasured possession of the few; the reigning models during the period of Gissing's adolescence were probably Dickens and Trollope, and the numerous satellites of these great stars, prominent among them Wilkie Collins, William Black, and Besant and Rice.

Book Synopsis Radiohead and Philosophy by : Brandon W. Forbes
Download or read book Radiohead and Philosophy written by Brandon W. Forbes and published by Open Court. This book was released on 2009-04-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since their breakthrough hit "Creep" in 1993, Radiohead has continued to make waves throughout popular and political culture with its views about the Bush presidency (its 2003 album was titled Hail to the Thief), its anti-corporatism, its pioneering efforts to produce ecologically sound road tours, and, most of all, its decision in 2007 to sell its latest album, In Rainbows, online with a controversial "pay-what-you-want" price. Radiohead and Philosophy offers fresh ways to appreciate the lyrics, music, and conceptual ground of this highly innovative band. The chapters in this book explain how Radiohead’s music connects directly to the philosophical phenomenology of thinkers like Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Martin Heidegger, the existentialism of Albert Camus and Jean Paul Sartre, and the philosophical politics of Karl Marx, Jean Baudrillard, and Noam Chomsky. Fans and critics know that Radiohead is "the only band that matters" on the scene today — Radiohead and Philosophy shows why.
Book Synopsis The Mythic Imagination by : Stephen Larsen
Download or read book The Mythic Imagination written by Stephen Larsen and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 1996-03-01 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mythology is the universal tongue of human imagination. As a tool for self-discovery, mythology is also a way of gaining access to the secrets of the psyche. The Mythic Imagination is a quest for the ancient source of vision and meaning in the world of dream, myth, and archetype. In the footsteps of Joseph Campbell, Stephen Larsen guides the reader on a journey through the mythic landscape of the psyche. His insight is that all of us, at one time or another, are engaged in creating personal mythologies that reflect the larger myths of the culture and our own deepest desires and aspirations. This book is a guide for bringing the deeper mythic structures of experience into awareness, for learning to recognize the archetypal content embedded in our dreams and daydreams, feelings, beliefs, relationships, conscious creations, and behavior. Student and authorized biographer of Joseph Campbell, Larsen teaches us how to bring myth into our lives. Reissue of the Bantam bestseller.
