Download or read book Heart of Darkness: Literary Touchstone Classic written by and published by Prestwick House Inc. This book was released on 2004-12-31 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heart of Darkness is powerful, short enough to be well-taught in a high school classroom, and enigmatic throughout. While reading this prime example of a frame story, students will see how exterior plot events parallel emotional and psychological movements within the main character. As Marlow's boat slowly takes him deep into the heart of darkest Africa, he examines his values and those of his imperialistic society. The end of his journey—his meeting with the mysterious Mr. Kurtz—finds him staring into the horrific face of human savagery.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Classic includes a glossary and reader's notes to help the modern reader appreciate Jacobs' perspectives and language.DRIVEN BY THE HORRORS of slavery and fear of a predatory master, Harriet Jacobs, a young black woman, makes the fateful, life-altering decision to escape. Long thought to be the work of a white writer, Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl is the captivating and terrifying story of Jacobs' daily life on a plantation in North Carolina, her seven years of hiding, and her ultimate triumph.Jacobs wrote her autobiography in 1861, under a pseudonym to protect the lives of the friends and family she left behind, and the work had been essentially lost until the mid-twentieth century. Now recognized as a classic, unflinching portrait of slave life, Incidents exposes slavery on a level comparable only to that of Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass.

Download or read book The Merchant of Venice written by William Shakespeare and published by Prestwick House Inc. This book was released on 2006 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To make The Merchant of Venice more accessible for the modern reader, our Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Classic includes a glossary of the more difficult words, as well as convenient sidebar notes to enlighten the reader on aspects that may be confusing or overlooked. In doing this, it is our intention that the reader may more fully enjoy the beauty of the verse, the wisdom of the insights, and the impact of the play.Undoubtedly one of Shakespeare's darkest comedies, The Merchant of Venice continues to amuse and trouble readers more than four hundred years after its premiere. It is a story of love, friendship, money, revenge, and justice tempered with mercy. While the beauty of the poetry and the drama of the courtroom scene are notable, what impresses readers most is the humanity with which Shakespeare imbues his villain, the vengeance-filled Shylock.In Elizabethan England, the stock character of the Jewish moneylender was a stereotypical, one-dimensional villain. He was a comic, but sometimes-sinister figure. Shakespeare takes this cardboard caricature and endows him with such humanity and pain that readers must question whether the "justice" Shylock receives is warranted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This complete and unabridged Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Classic(tm) of Edgar Lee Masters' Spoon River Anthology features an extensive glossary and reader's notes to help readers better understand and fully appreciate Masters' work.IN THE TOWN OF SPOON RIVER, ILLINOIS, the dead have been given one final opportunity to speak to the living in the form of epitaphs. Take a stroll through the graveyard; the words on each tombstone create an image of the way the person's life was lived. Together, these tombstones tell of a community that strove for perfection and goodness and relied heavily on faith-but, things don't always turn out as planned... Discover their secrets, heartaches, and regrets; sympathize with their guilt, anger, and sorrow; mourn with those the dead left behind; wander through the history these individuals made through their actions. Ultimately, this cemetery tells of lives that were far from perfect- sometimes, they were even far from good. Through their epitaphs, it becomes clear that these townspeople-neighbors, friends, lovers, family members, and even murderers-saw each other very differently, but now, they all are at rest, as equals, sleeping on the hill.
