Download or read book The Shadow of the Coachman's Body written by Peter Weiss and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A meticulously observed and macabre tale of hell on earth from the revolutionary German author of the famous play Marat/Sade Peter Weiss’s first prose work, The Shadow of the Coachman’s Body, was unanimously praised as an original and perfect work of art by critics when it appeared in 1960. Here, in poet Rosmarie Waldrop’s stunning translation, Weiss arranges a dark, vividly alive comedy of inert objects in a dismal boarding house—stones, buttons, hooks, needles, chairs, newspapers in an outhouse, clinking tin cups, celestial orbs, sewing machines, an overwound windup music box—which have oblique characters’ shadows as their supporting cast. Described by Weiss as a “micro-novel,” The Shadow of the Coachman’s Body can be obscene, trivial and brutal, and yet it is also peculiarly intimate and offers endless possibilities—like a telescope and kaleidoscope rolled into one.

This book was released on 2020-02-10 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 200-year-old Georgian Rectory is a sight to behold. But what secrets, spirits and ghosts lurk behind? When the Tully family purchased this magnificent building in the 1990s they had big restoration dreams. Little did they know their lives were about to change forever. This fascinating book is based on the author's 22-year diary. She shares intriguing insights into the paranormal activity and eerie occurrences the family have encountered. She details the network of psychic supporters they have called on to help with their unconventional plight and explains why this close-knit family are not prepared to leave their beautiful home. Sharon Rectory is haunted by the lost souls of its former residents and they aren't prepared to go quietly either. 'The Blue Lady', one such ghost, is thought to be the murder victim of the original owner, Sara Waller. A dark, malevolent spirit also occupies the rectory too. This powerful demonic presence plagues the family and wreaks havoc as its identity is gradually uncovered. Part historical/part modern day true ghost story, the author writes of her family's terror and their physical and mental torment as they try to maintain some semblance of normal family life at Sharon Rectory. Not for the faint of heart, this real and raw memoir of life among the paranormal will have you completely hooked from the very beginning. Author's personal note: This story reopened old wounds as I dive into my past and openly talk about my experiences with the supernatural. I confront the controversial topic of the paranormal as I tell the true events we must face while living in Sharon Rectory. Over the twenty-two years, myself and my family have kept a diary on the strange occurrences that we have encountered in our home. To constantly live in fear of the unseen is a curse, but to overcome those challenges together is a blessing.

Download or read book Hollywood Gothic written by David J. Skal and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2004-10-18 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primal image of the black-caped vampire Dracula has become an indelible fixture of the modern imagination. It's recognition factor rivals, in its own perverse way, the familiarity of Santa Claus. Most of us can recite without prompting the salient characteristics of the vampire: sleeping by day in its coffin, rising at dusk to feed on the blood of the living; the ability to shapeshift into a bat, wolf, or mist; a mortal vulnerability to a wooden stake through the heart or a shaft of sunlight. In this critically acclaimed excursion through the life of a cultural icon, David Skal maps out the archetypal vampire's relentless trajectory from Victorian literary oddity to movie idol to cultural commidity, digging through the populist veneer to reveal what the prince of darkness says about us all.

Book Synopsis The Portable Chekhov by : Anton Chekhov
Download or read book The Portable Chekhov written by Anton Chekhov and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1977-08-25 with total page 641 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anton Chekhov remarked toward the close of his life that people would stop reading him a year after his death. But his literary stature and popularity have grown steadily with the years, and he is accounted the single most important influence on the development of the modern short story. Edited and with an introduction by Avrahm Yarmolinsky, The Portable Chekhov presents twenty-eight of Chekhov’s best stories, chosen as particularly representative of his many-sided portrayal of the human comedy—including “The Kiss,” “The Darling,” and “In the Ravine”—as well as two complete plays; The Boor, an example of Chekhov’s earlier dramatic work, and The Cherry Orchard, his last and finest play. In addition, this volume includes a selection of letters, candidly revealing of Chekhov’s impassioned convictions on life and art, his high aspirations, his marriage, and his omnipresent compassion.

Book Synopsis Ireland 1800-1850 by : Desmond Keenan
Download or read book Ireland 1800-1850 written by Desmond Keenan and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2001-12-03 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anyone studying or teaching Irish history, or who likely to be involved in discussions on the subject, should first get the facts straight. It is my aim to provide, as far as possible, the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, about one particular period. This book is a companion to my other book Pre-Famine Ireland: Social Structure. I had accumulated such a vast quantity of material, often from untouched sources, that I was unable to include it in one volume of reasonable size. So it was necessary to order all material of a social and economic character in one volume, and historical narrative in another. But in places, in explaining legislation for example I felt it necessary to give brief accounts of social, political, or economic circumstances. The period 1800 to 1850 in Irish history has not been particularly frequently or well researched. Distortions too were caused by the political objectives of the various writers. Facts were selected, omitted, or twisted to suit political objectives. Catholic or nationalist writers wrote with their own religious and political objectives in mind, and Protestants or loyalists likewise. To this day the contending factions in Northern Ireland defend their stances by reference to the version of history favoured by their own side. It has often been observed that truth is the first casualty in any conflict, but it is also true that the loss or distortion of truth causes the conflict. Ireland was not an abnormal country in 1800. It could in many ways be compared with the young United States, and the disparities in their wealth and size of population were nothing like what they were later to become. British influence in Ireland had commenced some centuries before it had in the American colonies, and in each case the influence went far beyond political influence. It spread to language customs and institutions. The Irish Parliament received from Britain relative independence in 1782, and the American colonies absolute independence in 1783. Ireland, like the United States, had an upper ruling Protestant elite, and a lower class largely excluded from positions of power. The big difference was that this underclass of coloured people was a minority in the United States, while in Ireland the excluded Catholics formed a majority. By 1829 Irish Catholics had largely achieved political equality with Protestants, while the American Negroes received political equality, by the standards of the time, in 1866. The independence of the Irish Parliament was ended in 1800 because it was realized that the ruling Protestant elite in Ireland would never give political equality to Catholics for precisely the same reasons that southern American States would never give political equality to Negroes. In an era when political corruption was rife the whites would have to bribe the blacks to get anything. Everyone knows what happened to the American Negroes after 1866 when the actual conditions for democratic participation was left to be determined by the individual states. Ireland, like the United States, in the first half of the century was largely at peace. Though a great war raged around it, it was not invaded. Like the United States, its efforts were directed towards the arts of peace. Like the United States also its population grew rapidly. Though America had ultimately a safety valve in the great prairies to its west, and possessed abundant minerals, much of its development in the first half of the century was in the mountainous and forested states of the east. The population expanded up the mountains and into the forests, and, as in Ireland, gradually refluxed either into the great cities, or into the lands to the west. The difference was that in the United States this migration was within the country, while for the Irish the great cities and better lands were outside her borders. Like in Britain and the United States the use of machinery in the textile industry led to
Book Synopsis Lucky Breaks by : Yevgenia Belorusets
Download or read book Lucky Breaks written by Yevgenia Belorusets and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2022-03-01 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Powerful, off-beat stories about women living in the shadow of the now-frozen, now-thawing war in Ukraine Out of the impoverished coal regions of Ukraine known as the Donbass, where Russian secret military intervention coexists with banditry and insurgency, the women of Yevgenia Belorusets’s captivating collection of stories emerge from the ruins of a war, still being waged on and off, ever since the 2014 Revolution of Dignity. Through a series of unexpected encounters, we are pulled into the ordinary lives of these anonymous women: a florist, a cosmetologist, card players, readers of horoscopes, the unemployed, and a witch who catches newborns with a mitt. One refugee tries unsuccessfully to leave her broken umbrella behind as if it were a sick relative; a private caregiver in a disputed zone saves her elderly charge from the angel of death; a woman sits down on International Women’s Day and can no longer stand up; a soldier decides to marry war. Belorusets threads these tales of ebullient survival with a mix of humor, verisimilitude, the undramatic, and a profound Gogolian irony. She also weaves in twenty-three photographs that, in lyrical and historical counterpoint, form their own remarkable visual narrative.
Book Synopsis The Campbells of Anlaby 1860 To 1940 by : Janet Scarfe
Download or read book The Campbells of Anlaby 1860 To 1940 written by Janet Scarfe and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-22 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anlaby Station is one of South Australia's best known pastoral properties. Once stretching between Kapunda and Robertstown it was renowned for its wool, exotic gardens and the lavish lifestyle of the Dutton family who were its owners for one hundred and forty years. Three generations of Campbells lived and worked there. Scottish immigrant Hugh Campbell was a shepherd in the 1860s and 1870s, his sons were boundary riders and station hands, and one, Charles, was the property's overseer from 1904 to 1938. In their time, Anlaby reached its peak in land size and sheep numbers then shrank. Telephones, electric light and motor vehicles were unknown to Hugh but familiar to Charles's children. World War One and the Great Depression threatened the security of their lives. Hugh's other sons made different lives away from Anlaby: as a teamster in Broken Hill, as a police trooper and railway worker in the Northern Territory, and a drover in Queensland. Their parent's quest for opportunity in far-off places lived on. Another stayed closer to home but was estranged from the family on Anlaby. The Campbells stories have been recreated using Anlaby records, family photographs, newspapers of the day and other historical sources relating to South Australia, Broken Hill and the Northern Territory. This is a lively account of the Campbell family, the communities in which they lived and the changes they experienced. Anlaby's own story, previously seen through the Duttons' lens, is given new life.'The Campbells of Anlaby 1860 to 1940' is a skilful blend of family and social history.
