Download or read book Sun Moon Star written by Kurt Vonnegut and published by RosettaBooks. This book was released on 2016-11-08 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only children’s book by the author of Slaughterhouse-Five “spins the Nativity tale in a cerebral, humanist direction” (The New York Times Book Review). Sun Moon Star is the story of the birth of Jesus—as told by Kurt Vonnegut. This children’s book takes the newborn Jesus’ perspective, offering beautiful and insightful descriptions of the world from someone newly born into it. In this book, we follow Jesus and meet the people most important to his life—presented in new and surprising ways. A powerful departure from Vonnegut’s more adult work, Sun Moon Star gives readers a rare glimpse of the writer’s talent in a format that’s unique and unexpected. This book’s well-crafted simplicity is sure to make it a favorite—with both children and adult readers who are Vonnegut fans. “Vonnegut tells the story of the Nativity in his own original style that’s both delightful and charming. Complete with illustrations, this is a read suitable for both children and adults alike.”—The Bookbag, UK “It’s Vonnegut’s descriptions of the sheer newness of human experience (the child’s ‘fourth dream was simply green. It had never seen/ green/ before’) that make this an intriguing and memorable perspective on the Incarnation.”—Publishers Weekly

Download or read book Bucking the Sun written by Ivan Doig and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-07-09 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This American historical novel “takes you over as you read it, invading your daydreams, lodging its cadences in your brain, summoning you back to the page” (The Washington Post). Bucking the Sun is the saga of the Duff family, homesteaders driven from the Montana bottomland to work on one of the New Deal’s most audacious projects—the damming of the Missouri River. Through the story of each family member—a wrathful father, a mettlesome mother, and three very different sons, and the memorable women they marry—Ivan Doig conveys a sense of time and place that is at once epic in scope and rich in detail. “Vintage Doig.” —Publishers Weekly “An intense family drama. This richly detailed narrative offers comedy, passion, and adventure.” —Library Journal “An intriguing chapter . . . in the history of the West.” —Booklist “Doig’s real achievement is to chronicle—with empathy and precise, lyrical authority, down to the last load of gravel hauled in a sturdy Ford truck—the magnificent Fort Peck project and the desperate times out of which it arose.” —Kirkus Reviews “Ivan Doig is one of the best we’ve got—a muscular and exceedingly good writer.” —E. Annie Proulx author of Accordion Crimes and The Shipping News “The premier writer of the American West.” —Chicago Sun-Times “As tangled a web of familial and psychosexual rivalries as one is apt to encounter this side of Hamlet or The Brothers Karamazov.” —Entertainment Weekly “Doig has achieved his most adroit blend of fact and fancy in what is perhaps his best book since This House of Sky. . . . fact and anecdote are woven into the text with a light and often humorous touch.” —San Francisco Chronicle

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ivan and Phoebe chronicles the lives of several young people involved in the Ukrainian student protests of the 1990s—otherwise known as the Revolution on Granite or the First Maidan and investigates the difficulties and absurdities of a society swiftly shifting from subjugation to revolution to post-Soviet rule. Married couple Ivan and Phoebe grapple with questions about family, tragedy, and independence. Although protagonist Ivan tells the story, Phoebe's voice rings through the text. The two reflect on the harrowing aftermath of revolution: torture at the hands of the KGB and each other. Ivan refuses to talk about his pain, while Phoebe recounts her past wounds through poetic monologues. The story bounces between politically charged cities like Kyiv and Lviv and Ivan's small, traditional hometown of Uzhhorod. As characters come to exercise their rights to free speech and protest, they must also reevaluate the norms of marriage and home life. These initially appear to be spaces of peace and harmony but are soon revealed to be hotbeds of conflict and multigenerational trauma. Through her characters’ vivid voices, Oksana Lutsyshyna creates a his- and her-story of Ukraine: a panoramic view of post-Soviet society and family life through social, political, and economic crises.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ramesh Sangle, in his ongoing endeavor to write his third novel, adopts a biographical approach. However, his professional background as an engineer occasionally infuses technicality into the narrative, leading to some parts feeling tangential. Yet, due to its basis in reality, such technical aspects may have been inevitable. Interestingly, he maintains his own name for one character in the story, presumably portraying himself. The narrative unfolds with the introduction of Ivan, a Jewish colleague of Ramesh from their apprenticeship days. Through a series of events, Ivan's character evolves, tracing his journey through life, struggles, and eventual migration to Australia with his spouse. Ivan is depicted as a principled professional with a robust value system, which not only elevates his self-esteem but also necessitates sacrifices. The conclusion takes an unexpected turn. As Ivan enters his fifties, he emerges as a mature individual, inwardly confident, and adept at confronting new challenges with composure. This transformation underscores Ivan's psychological evolution, marking a compelling denouement to the narrative.
