Download or read book Eudora Welty written by Pearl Amelia McHaney and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-03-31 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pulitzer Prize-winning author Eudora Welty's writing and photography were the subject of more than one thousand reviews, of which over two hundred are collected here. From the first, reviewers loved Welty's language and disparaged her lack of plot. Their eager anticipation for the next book is rarely diminished by the shock of reading entirely different styles of writing. Her work was admired even as it challenged its readers. The reviews selected for reprinting here represent the diversity of Welty's reception and assessment. Reviews from small towns, urban centers, noted fiction writers, professional reviewers, academics, and everyday readers are included. The comments of reviewing rivals such as the New York Times and the New York Herald Tribune, Nation and New Yorker, when read side by side, reveal the nuances both of the reviewers and of the work of this important Southern writer.

Book excerpt: The page-turning follow-up to acclaimed thriller Two Girls Down features the tenacious PI Alice Vega and her electric partnership with Max Caplan, as they follow a shocking murder investigation to it’s even more shocking conclusion. On the outskirts of San Diego, the bodies of two young women are discovered. They have no names, no IDs, but one of the Jane Does holds a note bearing the name, “Alice Vega.” The police and FBI reach out to Vega, a private investigator known for finding the missing. Fearing the possibility of a human trafficking ring, Vega enlists the help of her one-time partner, former cop Max “Cap” Caplan. Despite a case with so few leads, Alice Vega is a powerful woman whose determination is matched only by her intellect, and, along with her partner Cap, she will stop at nothing to find the Janes’ killers before it is too late. Louisa Luna is writing new classics of crime fiction, and her partnership of Vega and Cap is rightfully joining the pantheon of the most memorable thrillers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: P.S. In the over-six decades that I have eagerly held crayon, pencil or pen, my style of drawing has never before brought forth these figures, each of which poured out in a single line, unbidden. The "emotes," as I have named them, are gifts from God which free me to recognize the feelings each figures represents. Being a visual-learner myself, and quite detached from my emotions, I have been largely unable to identify my feelings without such graphic clues. These images have allowed me to connect with myself in a whole new way! I did not willfully invent these images. While it was my hand which held the pen, it was a power greater than myself which caused these emotes to fill the pages of my many journals and now this book. Some friends suggest I "channeled" the emotes. I believe they channeled the inner me. Occasionally shared with others, the emotes made immediate connections, elicited brand-new back stories and found universal recognition. May they also resonate with you. Nemaste. Emily

Download or read book The Fellowship written by Philip Zaleski and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C. S. Lewis is the 20th century's most widely read Christian writer and J.R.R. Tolkien its most beloved mythmaker. For three decades, they and their closest associates formed a literary club known as the Inklings, which met every week in Lewis's Oxford rooms and in nearby pubs. They discussed literature, religion, and ideas; read aloud from works in progress; took philosophical rambles in woods and fields; gave one another companionship and criticism; and, in the process, rewrote the cultural history of modern times. In The Fellowship, Philip and Carol Zaleski offer the first complete rendering of the Inklings' lives and works. The result is an extraordinary account of the ideas, affections and vexations that drove the group's most significant members. C. S. Lewis accepts Jesus Christ while riding in the sidecar of his brother's motorcycle, maps the medieval and Renaissance mind, becomes a world-famous evangelist and moral satirist, and creates new forms of religiously attuned fiction while wrestling with personal crises. J.R.R. Tolkien transmutes an invented mythology into gripping story in The Lord of the Rings, while conducting groundbreaking Old English scholarship and elucidating, for family and friends, the Catholic teachings at the heart of his vision. Owen Barfield, a philosopher for whom language is the key to all mysteries, becomes Lewis's favorite sparring partner, and, for a time, Saul Bellow's chosen guru. And Charles Williams, poet, author of "supernatural shockers," and strange acolyte of romantic love, turns his everyday life into a mystical pageant. Romantics who scorned rebellion, fantasists who prized reality, wartime writers who believed in hope, Christians with cosmic reach, the Inklings sought to revitalize literature and faith in the twentieth century's darkest years-and did so in dazzling style.

Download or read book Empire of Humiliation written by James Brusseau and published by Overflow. This book was released on 2008 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some books touch a nerve, then there's Empire of Humiliation drilling through the molar.(Consul Will Kinney) As with all superior minds, Brusseau answers at a stroke questions filling books for others (What is imperialism, post-nationalism, etc.)but what brings this novel of ideas alive is the fast plot and local details. World-class in every sense.(Lines//Lneas) A prostitutes fingers shredded, an extravagant and lethal drinking party, a curator sacrificed in an eccentric theater: all of it seemingly committed by an American pair living in Mexico City. To save themselves, they'll have to discover who's really behind the scenes, and why. Answering will expose them to an elegant manipulator, and his tools for making others feel desperately inferior. The grime, the corruption and dangers of a third-world megacity will have to be faced, along with the truth about being an American abroad today. There is a way out, but they'll have to see how everything happening around them fits into a larger experiment in imperialism. And they'll have to decide, is American empire good or bad or just an opportunity? A suspicion guides this novel: humiliation can be wielded not only to enrage people, but also to twist and ultimately control them. In expert hands, even whole nations may be dominated because they've been made to feel contemptible. If that's right, then episodes of disdain separating foreigners from locals become introductions to power in our world. About the Author James Brusseau holds a Ph.D. in Philosophy and has taught at universities in the United States, Mexico and Europe. A milestone figure in contemporary theory, he is author of several scholarly books. This is his first novel.

Download or read book The Removes written by Tatjana Soli and published by Sarah Crichton Books. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the first wave of pioneers travel westward to settle the American frontier, two women discover their inner strength when their lives are irrevocably changed by the hardship of the wild west in The Removes, a historical novel from New York Times bestselling and award-winning author Tatjana Soli. Spanning the years of the first great settlement of the West, The Removes tells the intertwining stories of fifteen-year-old Anne Cummins, frontierswoman Libbie Custer, and Libbie’s husband, the Civil War hero George Armstrong Custer. When Anne survives a surprise attack on her family’s homestead, she is thrust into a difficult life she never anticipated—living among the Cheyenne as both a captive and, eventually, a member of the tribe. Libbie, too, is thrown into a brutal, unexpected life when she marries Custer. They move to the territories with the U.S. Army, where Libbie is challenged daily and her worldview expanded: the pampered daughter of a small-town judge, she transforms into a daring camp follower. But when what Anne and Libbie have come to know—self-reliance, freedom, danger—is suddenly altered through tragedy and loss, they realize how indelibly shaped they are by life on the treacherous, extraordinary American plains. With taut, suspenseful writing, Tatjana Soli tells the exhilarating stories of Libbie and Anne, who have grown like weeds into women unwilling to be restrained by the strictures governing nineteenth-century society. The Removes is a powerful, transporting novel about the addictive intensity and freedom of the American frontier.
