Book Synopsis The Golden Windmill and Other Stories (Classic Reprint) by : Stacy Aumonier
Download or read book The Golden Windmill and Other Stories (Classic Reprint) written by Stacy Aumonier and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Golden Windmill and Other Stories As you know, it is considered rather provocative to launch a book of short stories. It is asking for trouble. The least I can do is to offer a brief apology; and I cannot do this Without writing a preface, which requires an apology in itself. Unless you are a Bernard Shaw you find a preface a most embarrassing business. Having written the stories I would rather talk about anything else - old furniture, for instance. Perhaps my best policy will be to start by attacking you, 0 Reader, friend or enemy, as the case may be. You are a most exacting fellow. Far more exacting than a reader of novels, or works of reference, or even his tories; for the reason that your criticism follows a more circumscribed tradition. You are a kind of gourmet Whose palate is acutely sensitive to accustomed flavors and satieties. It is always easier to be an epicure of a small repast than of a banquet. A novel is less easily digested. You may enjoy it in parts, or derive satis faction from the matter, or from the manner of tel] ing, but With a short story you require a bonne bouche.

Book excerpt: Now a Netflix film starring and directed by Chiwetel Ejiofor, this is a gripping memoir of survival and perseverance about the heroic young inventor who brought electricity to his Malawian village. When a terrible drought struck William Kamkwamba's tiny village in Malawi, his family lost all of the season's crops, leaving them with nothing to eat and nothing to sell. William began to explore science books in his village library, looking for a solution. There, he came up with the idea that would change his family's life forever: he could build a windmill. Made out of scrap metal and old bicycle parts, William's windmill brought electricity to his home and helped his family pump the water they needed to farm the land. Retold for a younger audience, this exciting memoir shows how, even in a desperate situation, one boy's brilliant idea can light up the world. Complete with photographs, illustrations, and an epilogue that will bring readers up to date on William's story, this is the perfect edition to read and share with the whole family.

Book Synopsis Complete Short Stories of Nathaniel Hawthorne (Illustrated Edition) by : Nathaniel Hawthorne
Download or read book Complete Short Stories of Nathaniel Hawthorne (Illustrated Edition) written by Nathaniel Hawthorne and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2024-01-06 with total page 2870 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Complete Short Stories" is a literary masterpiece that showcases his unique style of dark romanticism and exploration of themes such as sin, guilt, and the supernatural. Each story is expertly crafted with intricate symbolism and moral ambiguity, making it a thought-provoking read that delves into the complexities of the human psyche. The collection includes classics like "The Minister's Black Veil" and "Young Goodman Brown", providing a comprehensive look at Hawthorne's narrative prowess and thematic depth within the short story genre. This illustrated edition enhances the reader's experience by visually capturing the haunting atmosphere of Hawthorne's tales. Nathaniel Hawthorne, a prominent American author of the 19th century, drew inspiration from his Puritan heritage and fascination with the human condition to create his gripping narratives. His background in Transcendentalism and his own personal struggles with guilt and sin heavily influenced his writing, giving his stories a profound and introspective quality. Hawthorne's ability to interweave moral ambiguity with poetic prose sets him apart as a literary giant of his time. I highly recommend "Complete Short Stories" to readers who enjoy thought-provoking literature that explores the darker aspects of human nature. Hawthorne's masterful storytelling and captivating themes make this collection a must-read for anyone interested in delving into the complexities of the human experience.

Book Synopsis The Complete Short Novels by : Anton Chekhov
Download or read book The Complete Short Novels written by Anton Chekhov and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Book Jacket Status: Jacketed) Aanton Chekhov, widely hailed as the supreme master of the short story, also wrote five works long enough to be called short novels–here brought together in one volume for the first time, in a masterly new translation by the award-winning translators Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky. The Steppe–the most lyrical of the five–is an account of a nine-year-old boy’s frightening journey by wagon train across the steppe of southern Russia. The Duel sets two decadent figures–a fanatical rationalist and a man of literary sensibility–on a collision course that ends in a series of surprising reversals. In The Story of an Unknown Man, a political radical spying on an important official by serving as valet to his son gradually discovers that his own terminal illness has changed his long-held priorities in startling ways. Three Years recounts a complex series of ironies in the personal life of a rich but passive Moscow merchant. In My Life, a man renounces wealth and social position for a life of manual labor. The resulting conflict between the moral simplicity of his ideals and the complex realities of human nature culminates in a brief apocalyptic vision that is unique in Chekhov’s work.
