Download or read book Curious Things written by Hope Silver and published by Thurston Howl Publications. This book was released on 2022-01-10 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Curious Things by Hope Silver reveals the hidden lives and innermost thoughts of inanimate objects, giving the gift of emotion and meaning to even the most mundane items people use every day. Among the colorful cast of characters in this collection of flash fiction are a doll with a broken heart, an elevator who acts as a matchmaker, and a video-camera who thinks she was Alfred Hitchcock in a past life. At times poignant, at times silly, but always quirky and clever, Curious Things may cause you to think differently about the sponges in your sink, the sneakers on the telephone line, or the plastic bags drifting across the highway. Like Thomas M. Disch's The Brave Little Toaster, Curious Things lends humanity and dignity to inhuman things that are so often taken for granted. - Amy Fontaine, author of MIST
Book Synopsis Little Things in a Big Country by : Hannah Hinchman
Download or read book Little Things in a Big Country written by Hannah Hinchman and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2004 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether chasing gophers (Sisu) or flirting with cowboys at the Buckhorn Bar (Hannah), artist Hannah Hinchman and her dog Sisu are excellent guides to some of the wildest country left in America. Treading carefully near a sandhill crane's nest, testing the ice on the river, and marveling at the seasonal influx of ducks, this pair of curious naturalists takes us into the intimate corners of western Montana, inquiring into all natural phenomena—which Hannah then captures on the page in detailed sketches, notes, and watercolors. If Annie Dillard were an artist, she might have composed a book like this. But few writers, or artists, can bring words and images together like Hannah Hinchman. Insightful, funny, and personal, she not only enables us to enter her own particular patch of the natural world, she also teaches us to see our own, bringing to her work an exceptional unity of hand, eye, and heart.

Book Synopsis The Curious Thing: Poems by : Sandra Lim
Download or read book The Curious Thing: Poems written by Sandra Lim and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this gorgeous third collection, Sandra Lim investigates desire, sexuality, and dream with sinewy intelligence and a startling freshness. Truthful, sensuous, and intellectually relentless, the poems in The Curious Thing are compelling meditations on love, art making, solitude, female fate, and both the mundane and serious principles of life. Sandra Lim’s poetry displays stinging wit and a tough-minded approach to her own experiences: She speaks with Jean Rhys about beauty, encounters the dark loneliness that can exist inside a relationship, and discovers a coiled anger on a hot summer day. An extended poem sequence slyly revolves the meanings of finding oneself astray in midlife. A steely strength courses through the volume’s myriad discoveries—Lim’s lucidity and tenderness form a striking complement to her remarkable metaphors and the emotional clamor of her material. Animated by a sense of reckoning and a piercing inwardness, these anti-sentimental poems nevertheless celebrate the passionate and empathetic subjective life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wall Street Journal Bestseller Have you ever wondered why we spend so much time and energy thinking about the big challenges in our lives when all the evidence proves it’s actually the little things that change everything? That’s right… Absolutely everything. Little Things embodies Andy’s own approach to life and work, detailing for the first time some of the exclusive material that he uses to teach and coach some of the most successful corporations, teams, and individuals around the world. In his unique humorous style, Andy shows how people succeed by actually going against the modern adage, “don’t sweat the small stuff”. By contrast, Andy proves that it is in concentrating on the smaller things that we add value and margin. Discover a new perspective and a game plan for meeting various challenges, such as: Managing life in a society that seems to be constantly offended by something or someone Creating change that is permanent and not short term Dramatically increasing results by harnessing the fraction of margin between second place and first Understanding our spiritual connection with God and how that affects planning and outcome Identifying the very moment when asking the question why? multiplies the success of an endeavor Recognizing the smallest details that ensure the greatest success

Book Synopsis Speck by : Peter Gordon Buchanan-Smith
Download or read book Speck written by Peter Gordon Buchanan-Smith and published by Princeton Architectural Press. This book was released on 2001-11 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Speck, Peter Buchanan-Smith, Art Director of the New York Times Op-Ed page, asks artists, designers, lawyers, writers, collectors, and photographers to explore our obsessions with the small objects that loom large in our everyday lives.To wit: Maira Kalman empties people's pocketbooks; Nicholas Blechman and Jesse Gordon trace the history of the oldest piece of dust; David Horrowitz catalogs manhole covers; and Peter Buchanan-Smith unearths a 1966 high school yearbook and transcribes the inscriptions ("To a real sweet and cute guy with a great personality. Remember English III").Speck also shows how "ordinary" people can fascinate as much as "ordinary" objects: an interview with shoe shiner Harry Kitt, Manhattan's last practitioner of the dry-shine, photographs taken by a blind man on a sight-seeing tour, and a barber's extensive collection of earth, water, and air from around the world ask us to re-think our assumptions about the commonplace.
Download or read book Curious written by Ian Leslie and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2014-08-26 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fun yet provocative look at the importance of staying curious in an increasingly indifferent world Everyone is born curious. But only some retain the habits of exploring, learning, and discovering as they grow older. Those who do so tend to be smarter, more creative, and more successful. But at the very moment when the rewards of curiosity have never been higher, it is misunderstood and undervalued, and increasingly monopolized by the cognitive elite. A "curiosity divide" is opening up. In Curious, Ian Leslie makes a passionate case for the cultivation of our "desire to know." Drawing on fascinating research from psychology, economics, education, and business, Leslie looks at what feeds curiosity and what starves it, and finds surprising answers. Curiosity is a mental muscle that atrophies without regular exercise and a habit that parents, schools, and workplaces need to nurture. Filled with inspiring stories, case studies, and practical advice, Curious will change the way you think about your own mental life, and that of those around you.

Book Synopsis Curious Reflections by : Zobian And A Lesley Zobian and Ann Humm
Download or read book Curious Reflections written by Zobian And A Lesley Zobian and Ann Humm and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Truth, so they say, is stranger than fiction. This may be so, but when anecdotes about such characters as Lam, Rugg, Great Uncle Horatius, and his disreputable companion, Stinky, plus an assortment of animals, are added to the equation, doubt about this truism can creep in. Curious Reflections is the meandering observations, musings, and correspondence between two sisters living three hundred miles apart in England. During the course of these ramblings the line between truth and fiction can very often become decidedly blurred. In an attempt to keep my mind off other projects...I decided to log on and see if there were any e-mails from Ann. Ann, or Mowl as she is known, is a very diligent correspondent, keeping me up to date with all the trivia and goings on down in her neck of the woods. She is known as Mowl because when we were children we would amuse ourselves by deciding what animals people reminded us of. Because of her short-sightedness and penchant for black velvet, Ann was of course a mole, hence Mowl. For reasons we shall not go into, I was a ferret, or Pherrit (somehow the "ph" makes it seem so much better).
