Book excerpt: The magnificent second novel from the legendary author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Following the astonishing success of his first novel, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Ken Kesey wrote what Charles Bowden calls "one of the few essential books written by an American in the last half century." This wild-spirited tale tells of a bitter strike that rages through a small lumber town along the Oregon coast. Bucking that strike out of sheer cussedness are the Stampers. Out of the Stamper family's rivalries and betrayals Ken Kesey has crafted a novel with the mythic impact of Greek tragedy.

Book Synopsis Oregon Literature (Classic Reprint) by : John B. Horner
Download or read book Oregon Literature (Classic Reprint) written by John B. Horner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oregon Literature However, beyond a crude and imperfect collection of excerpts from the writings of these people, published a few years ago by the author of this volume, no attempt has been made to place before the public any exhibit of their literature. The ready sale that attended the first edition, and the demand that apparently exists for a more pretentious work on the subject, occasioned the present publication. In this new edition the scope of work has been so in creased as to include contributions from gifted writers who have more recently come into prominence on ao count of use of choice English as it is spoken and written in the extreme West. But be it said that the interesting task of selecting nuggets amidst a Klondyke of literary gems was somewhat incumbered with the con stant fear that in the delightful search many of the most valuable specimens may have been overlooked. Bearing this in mind, the author believes that enough have been gathered and are here presented to convince the reader that in the realm of literature, no state so young as Oregon has done better.

Book Synopsis Sonny Montes and Mexican American Activism in Oregon by : Glenn Anthony May
Download or read book Sonny Montes and Mexican American Activism in Oregon written by Glenn Anthony May and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With "Sonny Montes and Mexican American Activism in Oregon, " Glenn Anthony May makes a major contribution to the literature on Oregon and Chicano history. On one level a biography of Oregon's leading Chicano activist, the book also tells the broader story of the state's Mexican American community during the 1960s and 1970s, a story in which Sonny Montes, a former migrant farmworker from South Texas, played an important part. Montes was the key figure in the birth of a Chicano movement in Oregon during the 1970s, a movement that coalesced around the struggle for survival of the Colegio Cesar Chavez, a small college in Mt. Angel, Oregon, with a largely Mexican American student body. Montes led the college community and its supporters in collective action--sit-ins, protest marches, rallies, prayer vigil. This campaign received wide media attention, making Sonny Montes a visible public figure. By viewing Mexican American protest between 1965 and 1980 through the prism of social movement theory, May's book deepens our understanding of the Chicano movement in Oregon and beyond. It also provides a much-needed account of the emergence of the state's Mexican American community during that time period. "Sonny Montes" will appeal to readers interested in modern social movements, Mexican American history, and Pacific Northwest history. It is an essential resource for scholars and students in those fields.

Book Synopsis Davis Country by : Harold Lenoir Davis
Download or read book Davis Country written by Harold Lenoir Davis and published by Northwest Readers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Davis Country collects the best writings of H. L. Davis, one of the Northwest's premier authors and the only Oregonian to receive the Pulitzer Prize for fiction. Born in southern Oregon's Umpqua Valley in 1894, Davis grew up in Antelope and The Dalles. He began as a poet, receiving the prestigious Levinson Prize at age twenty-Five. With the encouragement of H. L. Mencken, he turned to fiction, winning the Pulitzer Prize for his 1935 novel Honey in the Horn, which Mencken called the best first novel ever published in America. Full of humor and humanity, Davis's work displays a vast knowledge of Pacific Northwest history, lore, and landscape. His instinctive feel for the Northwest-the weather, trees, plants, animals, the varieties of Oregon rain, the smell of forest winds and high-desert heat-is unmatched. This volume gathers many of Davis's finest stories, essays, poems, and letters, as well as excerpts from his most famous novels. An introduction by editors Brian Booth and Glen Love, a brief autobiography, and an afterword on Davis's final, unfinished novel provide for a better understanding of this truly original Northwest voice.
