Download or read book The Doll written by Daphne Du Maurier and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2011-11-22 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Du Maurier is in a class by herself.” —New York Times Perhaps best known for her immortal gothic masterwork Rebecca—the basis for the Academy Award-winning motion picture directed by Alfred Hitchcock—Daphne de Maurier began her illustrious writing career penning short stories. In The Doll, thirteen of du Maurier’s early shorter fictional works have been collected—each story written before the author’s twenty-third birthday and some in print for the first time since the 1930s. Compelling tales of human foibles and tragic romance, the stories in The Doll represent the emergence of a remarkable literary talent who later went on to create Jamaica Inn, The Birds, and other classic works. This breathtaking collection of short fiction belongs on the bookshelf of every Daphne du Maurier fan.
Book Synopsis Doll's Wedding and Other Stories by : Chaso
Download or read book Doll's Wedding and Other Stories written by Chaso and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories in Dolls’ Wedding, by the finest short-story writer in modern Telugu, are nuanced, hard-hitting and marked by the total absence of sentimentality. A tightly constructed plot relies on a minimalist portrayal of characters—among them beggars, peasants, widows, children and the upwardly mobile middle class—whose pragmatism drives them to break convention and fight for their survival. The aged auditor’s young wife in ‘Got to Go to Eluru’ seduces an adolescent boy in order to produce a son who will protect her status when she is widowed; in ‘Firewood’, a peasant girl overcomes fear and speaks out when she is falsely accused of theft. A realist devoid of ideologies, Chaso was deeply interested in the actual life and the inner world of people around him. These luminous translations bring Chaso to a new audience.
Book Synopsis Classic Tales Retold by : Peggy Stuart
Download or read book Classic Tales Retold written by Peggy Stuart and published by . This book was released on 2022-11-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cast of "The Doll's Storybook" take on personalities of characters in well-known classic children's stories: Little Red Riding Hood, The Boy Who Cried Wolf and Hansel and Gretel. Although each of the stories has a twist, children and adults who are familiar with these stories will recognize them at once. Each page contains one or more photos of the characters acting out the scenes, making the text easier to understand for young readers or children using the stories to learn English. The cast of characters for the stories are realistic-looking dolls with elbow and knee joints, which allow them to move around easily, but their environment is one real children can identify with. They live in a house made for real people and spend time outdoors in a human-person's world. Dolls living in a world suitable for people sometimes run into difficulties! The first story is "Little Green Greatcoat." A girl doll takes a basket of food through the woods to her human grandmother's house and meets a wolf. Things don't go as the wolf (or the reader) expects, though, and the happy ending isn't as messy as the original. "The Boy Doll Who Cried Wolf" follows. This story follows the original closely, except that the sheep don't belong to the boy doll, and none of them is harmed. Readers will recognize another character from children's literature who makes a cameo appearance. In the third story, "Lost in the Woods," a boy doll and a girl doll lose their way following a rabbit and look for help at the home of an old human woman who has interesting dietary preferences. Will they find out in time? Will the dolls escape? This is the third book in a series. Each is a standalone book, so they do not have to be read in order. "The Doll's Storybook" is a favorite of doll collectors, as well as children. The stories are like photojournalism but with fiction; like graphic novels with photos. The story blog "The Doll's Storybook," began in 2018 as a way to share stories with the author's grandchildren who all live a long way away. Other adults and children found the stories, and parents and grandparents began to ask for a physical book--one they could read to their children or that the children could read to themselves and not use up their "screen time."

Book Synopsis The Doll's Alphabet by : Camilla Grudova
Download or read book The Doll's Alphabet written by Camilla Grudova and published by Coffee House Press. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This doll's eye view is a total delight and surveys a world awash with shadowy wit and exquisite collisions of beauty and the grotesque." —Helen Oyeyemi, author of Boy, Snow, Bird "Down to its most particular details, The Doll's Alphabet creates an individual world—a landscape I have never encountered before, which now feels like it was been waiting to be captured, and waiting to captivate, all along." —Sheila Heti, author of How Should a Person Be "Marvellous. Grudova understands that the best writing has to pull off the hardest aesthetic trick—it has to be both memorable and fleeting." —Deborah Levy, author of Hot Milk Dolls, sewing machines, tinned foods, mirrors, malfunctioning bodies—by constantly reinventing ways to engage with her obsessions and motifs, Camilla Grudova has built a universe that's highly imaginative, incredibly original, and absolutely discomfiting. The stories in The Doll's Alphabet are by turns child-like and naive, grotesque and very dark: the marriage of Margaret Atwood and Angela Carter. Camilla Grudova lives in Toronto. She holds a degree in Art History and German from McGill University, Montreal. Her fiction has appeared in The White Review and Granta.

Book Synopsis THE LITTLE DOLL'S DRESSMAKER - A Children's Story by Charles Dickens Charles Dickens by : Charles Dickens
Download or read book THE LITTLE DOLL'S DRESSMAKER - A Children's Story by Charles Dickens Charles Dickens written by Charles Dickens and published by Abela Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2018-12-29 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jenny Wren, The Doll’s Dressmaker, is a welcome contrast to stereotypes of disabled individuals as "permanent children" always in need of protection, "defined by their perceived dependence on the nondisabled" (Klages 2). Far from slinking through life as an object of pity, Jenny proclaims herself "the person of the house". It is a frequent complaint that Dickens's ideal heroine is the angel of the house and that his "stereotypical presentations of angels, fallen sisters, and eccentric women regrettably leave today's readers in search of a viable heroine". While several Dickens’ characters fit binary stereotypes of the disabled as pitiful and helpless, sometimes even monstrous and villainous, Jenny Wren, the dolls' dressmaker, creates a unique and constructive life with regards to her infirmities. She has successfully adaptated her life and in several respects she reverses and challenges and limits usually imposed on disabled women in Victorian fiction. To this end Jenny has built a successful business making dolls clothes for the wealthier members of society. The little dressmaker is so strong and courageous that she physically assaults a vile businessman, Fascination Fledgeby, who has hounded Jenny's friends and ruined many other lives through his extortionate lending practices. Jenny's weapon of choice is pepper, the Victorian girl's counterpart of mace. In a complete reversal of the usual paradigm, the able-bodied man finds himself writhing helplessly, temporarily disabled, humiliated and in pain. Jenny Wren anticipates today's view that the disabled and the able-bodied can work together in interdependent relationships, subverting the expectation that the disabled are inevitably dependent. While typically the disabled woman in the Victorian novel is denied a reproductive future, Jenny is an exception. Dickens was ahead of his time in providing a suitor for Jenny, and envisioning that a disabled woman can be beautiful. With thanks to Sara D.
