Book Synopsis Reno (by the) in the Lake and Other Stories by : Jim Hartman
Download or read book Reno (by the) in the Lake and Other Stories written by Jim Hartman and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-03-31 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I guess, in truth, “Reno by the/in the Lake” is my “Autobiography Light.” The material is indeed autobiographical in that little has been gleaned from any outside source and it is definitely light both in serious content and the serious nature often portrayed by an autobiography. So read on just for fun. Reno Beach was a magical place in the 1920s, ’30s, ’40s and ’50s, a resort town that never really quite reached its prime. It had, however attained great stature in the hearts and minds of all it entertained, especially in the imagination of a young boy who could see adventure, even in the smallest buttonhole or banal blemish. In his mind a vegetable garden became a wilderness plantation. An overturned rowboat became a fortress, a pirate’s treasure cave or a magician’s maudlin mansion. A willow tree only recently uprooted by the wind and waves of an angry possessive lake trying desperately to reclaim its own; this became the perfect home for “Tarzan (Jimmie) of the Apes.” The fact that I’m even writing this book belies the fact that the place and that little boy still live, if only in my imagination. The stories you’re about to read are about that small waterfront community just east of Toledo Ohio on the western end of Lake Erie and how it’s life; death and frequent revitalizations affected the life of one small boy, namely me. The stories are absolutely true except as altered by an aging memory, wishful thinking and delusions of grandeur, not necessarily in that order, and they represent some of the very best days of my life. I’ve been told that it’s good to share your very best. I hope you enjoy reading my stories nearly as much as I enjoyed living them. The writing’s been fun too. Some names and places may have been altered to protect the innocent and/or the guilty, but not many. Some may also be changed just because I’ve forgotten or don’t really know what I’m talking about. Please forgive me. Many may recognize themselves, a friend or family member in some of these stories and each one probably deserves whatever treatment or attention they received, either good or bad. This book is intended to be a “Bathroom Book.” This is not a negative. For those unable to grasp this creative terminology I provide the following explanation in the form of a prescription: Take in small doses. Continuous exposure could be hazardous to your health and could lead to an abrasive situation requiring an immediate application of Preparation “H.” This does not imply that either you the reader or the writer is full of . . . Anything. Should you disapprove of any of the material in this book please feel free to remove the offending pages and put them to better use right there in the “Reading Room” solving the problems of the moment. I’m sure you understand. Enjoy. Life is short. Don’t waste it on seriousness.

Book Synopsis The Dullard And Other Stories by : Anant Pai
Download or read book The Dullard And Other Stories written by Anant Pai and published by Amar Chitra Katha Pvt Ltd. This book was released on 1971-04-01 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'dullard' of the story, an unfortunate failure at school, is a familiar figure in every age. Poor at his books, he compensates with a wealth of common sense and goes on to survive life's trials rather well. His comically smug, scholarly companions, on the other hand, soon meet their doom. These tales may mirror everyday human vices in a time-tested and engaging way but they are also gentle guides to a wiser, happier path.

This book was released on 2023-12-05 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: H. G. Wells' 'The Country of the Blind and Other Stories' is a collection of 33 fantasy and science fiction short stories that captivate readers with their vivid imagination and thought-provoking themes. Wells seamlessly blends elements of speculative fiction with social commentary, creating a literary style that is both entertaining and intellectually stimulating. The stories range from tales of time travel and alien invasions to explorations of human nature and technological advancements, showcasing Wells' versatility as a writer and his ability to craft engaging narratives within the genre. The original 1911 edition remains a classic work of science fiction literature that continues to resonate with readers today. H. G. Wells, a prolific writer known for his groundbreaking contributions to the science fiction genre, drew inspiration from his deep interest in scientific advancements and societal issues. His works often reflect his concerns about the impact of technology on humanity and the potential consequences of unchecked progress. Wells' keen observations of human behavior and his visionary imagination have solidified his reputation as a master storyteller and a pioneer of speculative fiction. I highly recommend 'The Country of the Blind and Other Stories' to readers who enjoy thought-provoking science fiction, as well as those interested in exploring the intersections of science, society, and human nature. Wells' imaginative storytelling and insightful commentary make this collection a must-read for fans of the genre.
