Book Synopsis The Awkward Age (Esprios Classics) by : Henry James
Download or read book The Awkward Age (Esprios Classics) written by Henry James and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Awkward Age is a novel by Henry James, first published as a serial in Harper's Weekly in 1898-1899 and then as a book later in 1899. Originally conceived as a brief, light story about the complications created in her family's social set by a young girl coming of age, the novel expanded into a general treatment of decadence and corruption in English fin de siècle life. James presents the novel almost entirely in dialogue, an experiment that adds to the immediacy of the scenes but also creates serious ambiguities about characters and their motives.
Download or read book A Wounded Name written by Charles King and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-10 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A Wounded Name' is a military-themed novel by Charles King, an American soldier and a distinguished writer. The story unfolds with the arrival of a stagecoach, and Sancho, the ranch-keeper, could not make out whether any passengers were on top or not. He had brought a fine binocular to bear just as soon as the shrill voice of Pedro, a swarthy little scamp of a half-breed, announced the dust-cloud sailing over the clump of willows below the bend. Pedro was not the youngster's original name, and so far as could be determined by ecclesiastical records, owing to the omission of the customary church ceremonies, he bore none that the chaplain at old Camp Cooke would admit to be Christian.
