A love affair is experienced in the blink of an eye as the Archduke Ferdinand watches his wife succumb to an assassin's bullet. An exiled writer, working in a sandwich shop in Chicago, adjusts to the absurdities of his life.

Book excerpt: The Nowhere Man is an intricate, perceptive tragedy of alienation centered around the violent racism sparked by Britain's post-war immigration drive. Srinivas, an elderly Brahmin, has been living in south London suburb for 30 years. After the death of his son, and later his wife, this lonely man is befriended by an Englishwoman in her sixties, whom he takes into his home. The two form a deep and abiding relationship. But the haven they have created for themselves proves to be a fragile one. Racist violence enters their world and Srinivas's life changes irrevocably--as does his dream of England as a country of tolerance and equality. First published in 1972, The Nowhere Man depicts a London convulsed by fear and bitterness. Truly shocking, The Nowhere Man is as relevant today as when it was first published almost 50 years ago.

Only Kathryn could help him—but once she discovered who he was, could she save him in time…and would she want to?

Book Synopsis Uncomfortably Happily by : Yeong-sik Hong
Download or read book Uncomfortably Happily written by Yeong-sik Hong and published by Drawn & Quarterly. This book was released on 2021-06-28 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the gentler pace and stillness of the countryside replace the roar of the city, but your editor keeps calling With gorgeously detailed yet minimal art, cartoonist Yeon-Sik Hong explores his move with his wife to a small house atop a rural mountain, replacing the high-rent hubbub of Seoul with the quiet murmur of the country. With their dog, cats, and chickens by their side, the simple life and isolation they so desperately craved proves to present new anxieties. Hong paints a beautiful portrait of the Korean countryside, changing seasons, and the universal relationships humans have with each other as well as nature, both of which are sometimes frustrating but always rewarding. Uncomfortably Happily is translated by American cartoonist Hellen Jo from the acclaimed Manhwa Today award-winning Korean edition.
Download or read book Mr. Potter written by Jamaica Kincaid and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2003-07-16 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of an ordinary man, his century, and his home: "Kincaid's most poetic and affecting novel to date" (Robert Antoni, The Washington Post Book World) Jamaica Kincaid's first obssession, the island of Antigua, comes vibrantly to life under the gaze of Mr. Potter, an illiterate taxi chauffeur who makes his living along the roads that pass through the only towns he has ever seen and the graveyard where he will be buried. The sun shines squarely overhead, the ocean lies on every side, and suppressed passion fills the air. Ignoring the legacy of his father, a poor fisherman, and his mother, who committed suicide, Mr. Potter struggles to live at ease amid his surroundings: to purchase a car, to have girlfriends, and to shake off the encumbrance of his daughters—one of whom will return to Antigua after he dies and tell his story with equal measures of distance and sympathy. In Mr. Potter, Kincaid breathes life into a figure unlike any other in contemporary fiction, an individual consciousness emerging gloriously out of an unexamined life.
Book Synopsis Merton's Palace of Nowhere by : James Finley
Download or read book Merton's Palace of Nowhere written by James Finley and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For forty years, James Finley’s Merton's Palace of Nowhere has been the standard text for exploring, reflecting on, and understanding the rich vein of Thomas Merton's thought. Spiritual identity is the quest to know who we are, to find meaning, to overcome that sense of “Is this all there is?” Merton’s message cuts to the heart of this universal quest, and Finley illuminates that message as no one else can. As a young man of eighteen, Finley left home for an unlikely destination: the Abbey of Gethsemani, where Thomas Merton lived as a contemplative. Finley stayed at the monastery for six maturing years and later wrote this Merton’s Palace of Nowhere in order to share a taste of what he had learned on his spiritual journey under the guidance of one of the great religious figures of our time. At the heart of the quest for spiritual identity are Merton's illuminating insights—leading from an awareness of the false and illusory self to a realization of the true self. Dog-eared, tattered, underlined copies of this book are found on the bookshelves of retreat centers, parish libraries, and the homes of spiritual seekers everywhere. This anniversary edition brings a classic to a new generation and includes a new preface by Finley.

Download or read book Nowhere Man written by Robert Rosen and published by South Village Press. This book was released on 2022-12-30 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By all appearances, John Lennon was working on a tell-all memoir in the final years of his life. Every day he poured into diaries his raw thoughts and feelings—about his jealous rivalry with Paul McCartney; his tumultuous marriage to Yoko Ono; his love for his sons, Julian and Sean; his hatred of the music business; his escape into programmed dreams; his acerbic opinions of England and America. Written by one of the few people to have read those diaries, and based on decades of research, Nowhere Man takes you on a journey through Lennon's consciousness. Covering a range of topics close to John's heart, from Abbey Road to the zodiac, the book offers vivid insights into his extraordinary life. It examines his passion for money, his forceful rejection of a Beatles reunion, his drug use, his forays into the occult, his brief acceptance of Jesus, and his solitary struggle in the Dakota to create a meaningful life in the glaring spotlight of fame. A portrait of an artist in turmoil striving to reconnect with his muse—which culminates with the release of Double Fantasy, his final album—Nowhere Man is an unforgettable look at Lennon's last years and the tragic fate of a beloved cultural icon whose transcendent music changed the world.
