Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Women's infidelity is a complex and deep subject, however throughout history men have given it a very loose meaning. Beyond those macho prejudices, many other things come to play. Who has not been unfaithful at one time, at least mentally? The ambition to have what we do not have and to be what we are not is a big part of human beings, and so is infidelity." Rosa Montero.

Book excerpt: Relatos infieles es una recopilación de historias cortas oídas, vistas, comentadas o sufridas, sobre las circunstancias que rodean a la infidelidad. En las relaciones amorosas no hay buenos y malos, no hay reglas y no hay límites. Hay hechos, pensamientos y emociones. Tal vez haya quien se crea ganador y quien piense que lo ha perdido todo. No queda sino enfrentar al toro por los cuernos, con la tristeza, con la risa, con la estrategia que nos lleve a aceptar la naturaleza humana tal como es: defectuosa. La infidelidad tiene tantos matices como involucrados en el drama más antiguo del mundo. Después de todo, una infidelidad no es para morirse... o quien sabe.

Book Synopsis The Best Japanese Short Stories by :
Download or read book The Best Japanese Short Stories written by and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2023-03-14 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An anthology of the greatest stories by modern Japanese masters (including previously overlooked women writers)! Fourteen distinct voices are assembled in this one-of-a-kind anthology tracing a nation's changing social landscapes. Internationally renowned writers like Yasunari Kawabata, Ryunosuke Akutagawa and Junichi Watanabe are joined by three notable women writers whose works have not yet received sufficient attention--Kanoko Okamoto, Fumiko Hayashi and Yumiko Kurahashi. Highlights of this anthology include: Kafu Nagai's bittersweet portrait of a privileged family's expiring existence in "The Fox" Ango Sakaguchi's heartening celebration of postwar chaos in "One Woman and the War" Fumiko Hayashi's unabashed exploration of female sexuality in "Borneo Diamond" Junichi Watanabe's chilling assessment of alienation and social dislocation in "Invitation to Suicide" Gishu Nakayama's look at an out-of-place prostitute recovering at a hot-spring resort in "Autumn Wind" Through brilliant, highly-praised translations by Lane Dunlop, The Best Japanese Short Stories offers fascinating glimpses of a society embracing change while holding tenaciously onto the past. A new foreword by Alan Tansman provides insightful back stories about the authors and the literary backdrop against which they created these great works of modern world literature.
Book Synopsis I Saw a Pale Horse by : Fumiko Hayashi
Download or read book I Saw a Pale Horse written by Fumiko Hayashi and published by Cornell East Asia Series. This book was released on 1997 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hayashi Fumiko, one of the most popular prose writers of the Showa era, began writing as a down-and-out poet wandering the streets of 1920s Tokyo. In these translations of her first poetry collection, I Saw a Pale Horse (Aouma wo mitari) and Selected Poems from Diary of a Vagabond (Hōrōki), Fumiko's literary origins are colorfully revealed. Little known in the west, these early poetic texts focus on Fumiko's unconventional early life, and her construction of a female subject that would challenge, with gusto and panache, accepted notions not only of class, family, and gender but also of female poetic practice.

Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of the acclaimed Chaos and Genius comes a thoughtful and provocative exploration of the big ideas of the modern era: Information, communication, and information theory. Acclaimed science writer James Gleick presents an eye-opening vision of how our relationship to information has transformed the very nature of human consciousness. A fascinating intellectual journey through the history of communication and information, from the language of Africa’s talking drums to the invention of written alphabets; from the electronic transmission of code to the origins of information theory, into the new information age and the current deluge of news, tweets, images, and blogs. Along the way, Gleick profiles key innovators, including Charles Babbage, Ada Lovelace, Samuel Morse, and Claude Shannon, and reveals how our understanding of information is transforming not only how we look at the world, but how we live.

Book Synopsis Arthur Schnitzler by : Arthur Schnitzler
Download or read book Arthur Schnitzler written by Arthur Schnitzler and published by Smith & Kraus. This book was released on 1999 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Austrian playwright Arthur Schnitzler (1862-1931), one of the seminal forces in world drama, was also a novelist and practicing physician. His four dramatic works in this volume (La Ronde, Anatol, The Green Cockatoo, and Flirtation) are among the most celebrated plays of the 20th century. Much like his contemporary Sigmund Freud, Schnitzler's work is inextricable from the social and intellectual milieu, which accompanied the decline of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. This was the age of the "Viennese Secessionists", exemplified by composers such as Berg, Webern, and Schoenberg, painters Gustav Klimt and Oskar Kokoschka, the foundations of modern architecture, and Zionism. To add to the ferment, Freud introduced his theories of sexuality. It was from within this maelstrom that Schnitzler wrote his plays. He wrote with charm and grace and with great compassion for the fraility of humankind. These plays are regularly performed throughout the world and are acclaimed as masterpieces of modern theater. Mueller's translations of plays include works by Brecht, Buchner, Wedekind, Hauptmann, Strindberg, and Sophocles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hilarious takedown of celebrity and false genius, never before available in the US. An NYRB Classics Original Eduard Saxberger is a quiet man who is getting on in years and has spent the better part of them working at a desk in an office. Once upon a time, however, he published a book of poetry, Wanderings, and one day when he returns from his usual walk he finds a young man waiting for him. “Are you,” he wants to know, “Saxberger the poet?” Is Saxberger Saxberger the poet? Was he ever a poet? A real poet? Saxberger hasn’t written a poem for years, but he begins to frequent the coffee shops of Vienna with his young admirer and his no less admiring circle of friends, and as he does he begins to yearn for a different life from the daily round followed by rounds of drinks and billiards with familiar buddies like Grossinger, the deli owner. And the ardent attentions of Fräulein Gasteiner, the tragedienne, are not entirely unwelcome. The Hope of Young Vienna is how the young artists style themselves, and they are arranging an event that will introduce them to the world. They insist that the distinguished author of Wanderings take part in it as well. Will he write something new for the occasion? Will he at last receive his due? Late Fame, an unpublished novella recently rediscovered in the papers of the great turn-of-the-century Austrian playwright and novelist Arthur Schnitzler, is a bittersweet parable of hope lost and found.
