Book Synopsis The Odd Woman and the City by : Vivian Gornick
Download or read book The Odd Woman and the City written by Vivian Gornick and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A contentious, deeply moving ode to friendship, love, and urban life in the spirit of Fierce Attachments A memoir of self-discovery and the dilemma of connection in our time, The Odd Woman and the City explores the rhythms, chance encounters, and ever-changing friendships of urban life that forge the sensibility of a fiercely independent woman who has lived out her conflicts, not her fantasies, in a city (New York) that has done the same. Running steadily through the book is Vivian Gornick's exchange of more than twenty years with Leonard, a gay man who is sophisticated about his own unhappiness, whose friendship has "shed more light on the mysterious nature of ordinary human relations than has any other intimacy" she has known. The exchange between Gornick and Leonard acts as a Greek chorus to the main action of the narrator's continual engagement on the street with grocers, derelicts, and doormen; people on the bus, cross-dressers on the corner, and acquaintances by the handful. In Leonard she sees herself reflected plain; out on the street she makes sense of what she sees. Written as a narrative collage that includes meditative pieces on the making of a modern feminist, the role of the flaneur in urban literature, and the evolution of friendship over the past two centuries, The Odd Woman and the City beautifully bookends Gornick's acclaimed Fierce Attachments, in which we first encountered her rich relationship with the ultimate metropolis.

Book Synopsis English Stage Comedy 1490-1990 by : Alexander Leggatt
Download or read book English Stage Comedy 1490-1990 written by Alexander Leggatt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-01-31 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 2004. English stage comedy has weathered centuries of social and theatrical change. How did it survive? English Stage Comedy 1490–1990 is a unique and beautifully written study of the comedy of the English stage from the Tudor period to the late twentieth century. Organized thematically, it shows how this remarkably enduring genre has dealt with the tensions of social life, using its conventions as tools for social inquiry. Through an examination of comedy Alexander Leggatt demonstrates that an approach through genre, neglected in recent criticism, can have much to say about our current concerns with the relations between literature and society. English Stage Comedy 1490–1990 surveys five centuries of classic comic drama, focusing on major playwrights such as: Shakespeare, Jonson, Etherege, Wycherley, Congreve, Vanbrugh, Goldsmith, Sheridan, Wilde, Shaw, Coward, Orton, Ayckbourn and many lesser-known figures.

Book Synopsis In Other Rooms, Other Wonders by : Daniyal Mueenuddin
Download or read book In Other Rooms, Other Wonders written by Daniyal Mueenuddin and published by Random House India. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moving from the elegant drawing rooms of Lahore to the mud villages of rural Multan, a powerful collection of short stories about feudal Pakistan. An impoverished young woman becomes a wealthy relative’s mistress; an electrician on the make confronts his desperate assailant to protect his most prized possession; a farm manager rises far in the world—but his family discovers after his death the transience of power; a maid, who advances herself through sexual favours, unexpectedly falls in love. In these linked stories about the family and household staff of the ageing KK Harouni, we meet masters and servants, landlords and supplicants, politicians and electricians, village women, and Karachi housewives. Part Chekhov, part RK Narayan, these stories are dark and light, complex and humane; at heart about the relationship between the powerful and powerless, bound together in life—and in death. Together they make up a vivid portrait of a feudal world rarely brought alive in the English language. Sensuous, graceful, melancholy, In Other Rooms, Other Wonders gives you Pakistan as you have never seen it. It marks the debut of an amazing new talent.

Download or read book The Daisy Chain written by Juli Flintoff and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2024-06-21 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The psychological onslaught of torment enveloped her in a veil of darkness as the same mind-bending scenes play on a relentless loop every time she closes her eyes. The secrets Cassandra Matthews has been forced to keep are suffocating the very life blood out of her, leaving her utterly incapacitated. Alone with her despair, lost in the bleakness of helplessness, and invisible to those around her, she is unable to function effectively. Exasperated at feeling like a pinball being propelled back and forth, desperate for someone to listen, she threatens to confess all that she knows just to quieten the demons within. Like a starter pistol commencing a race, Cassandra Matthews’ warnings shift the gears into place, igniting a ‘survival of the fittest’ mode and stimulating her assailant’s drastic actions. They may think they have covered their tracks, but a face at the window holds the truth and will stop at nothing to ensure they pay, tenfold. The sins of the guilty may quieten their ears and allow them to sleep in blissful ignorance, but the puppet master is biding his time, planning his retribution. Through the unpredictable and intricate web woven from their deceit, he will cast his net to inflict upon them a destructive path of human suffering they never knew existed. The stranger in the shadows will decide upon the time, the place, and the punishment; then, there will be no mercy.
