Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Swamp Angel However, I served up daily this intellectual stew, made from the ingredients of our barbaric civiliza tion, with a tolerably clear conscience first, because I was well paid for it; secondly, I liked the work; and thirdly, because the public wanted their daily horrors spiced as I spiced it; and then at half past ten in the forenoon, I flew back by rail to my be loved swamp, where I labored till dusk, overlooked only by an occasional crow, perched on a neighbor ing tree, cross, tired, and hungry, because there was no young corn to pull up.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Angel I do not think a book of this sort requires a very lengthy foreword, but one or two things I feel it necessary to say concerning it. In the first place, I have to thank Mr. Hamilton Edwards for many valu able suggestions concerning it, suggestions which, undoubtedly, helped me very much in the writing. The story is an attempt to impress upon readers the fact that we are, without doubt, surrounded on our way through life by unseen presences, unseen intelligences, which guard or attack that real portion of us which is ourselves - the soul.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Blooming Angel Chester was rubbing that brow with a damp towel as, on the eve of great possibilities, he came out of the washroom and confronted his mother in the neat sitting room, which despite its detachment from business always reeked of heated irons upon starchy muslin. He was a tall young man with rather a magnificent head; a size too magnificent, perhaps, for his destiny. Some remote Scandinavian ancestor who had given him his name had substituted a sense of sublimity for a sense of humor - or possibly this is unfair.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Swamp Angel is the story of Maggie Lloyd, struggling to find certainty in a world that has deprived her of family and trapped her in a second marriage that has proven a terrible mistake. One spring evening she abandons her petty husband and her old life, escaping to work at a B.C. fishing lodge. But the serenity she finds in the harsh and breath-taking wilderness is short-lived, as new conflicts emerge with a jealous lodge-owner's wife. Ethel Wilson's novel is hard to forget - her unique and delightful style appears artless, yet betrays hidden depths.

Download or read book Falling Angel written by William Hjortsberg and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2012-03-13 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edgar Award Finalist: The hunt for a vanished singer leads a detective into the depths of the occult in this “terrific” novel (Stephen King). Big-band frontman Johnny Favorite was singing for the troops when a Luftwaffe fighter squadron strafed the bandstand, killing the crowd and leaving the singer near death. The army returned him to a private hospital in upstate New York, leaving him to live out his days as a vegetable while the world forgot him. But Louis Cyphre never forgets. Cyphre had a contract with the singer, stipulating payment upon Johnny’s death—payment that will be denied as long as Johnny clings to life. When Cyphre hires private investigator Harry Angel to find Johnny at the hospital, Angel learns that the singer has disappeared. It is no ordinary missing-person’s case. Everyone he questions dies soon after, as Angel’s investigation ensnares him in a bizarre tangle of black magic, carnival freaks, and grisly voodoo. When the sinister Louis Cyphre begins appearing in Angel’s dreams, the detective fears for his life, his sanity, and his soul. Falling Angel was the basis for the Alan Parker film Angel Heart, starring Mickey Rourke, Robert De Niro, and Lisa Bonet. This ebook features an illustrated biography of William Hjortsberg including rare photos from the author’s personal collection.

Download or read book Swamp Angel written by Anne Isaacs and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1994-09-01 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working in an American primitive style animated by the humor and storytelling genius for which he is renowned, Caldecott Winner artist Paul O. Zelinsky puts oils to cherry and maple for this tall-tale competition between a Tennessee woods-woman extraordinaire and a hungry, fearsome bear.Thundering Tarnation has a bottomless appetite for settler's grub. When word goes out about a competition to hunt this four-legged forest of stubble, a young woman, second to none in buckskin bravery, signs up. "How about baking a pie, Angel?" the other hunters taunt. "I aim to," says Swamp Angel. "A bear pie."What follows is as witty a round of roughhousing as ever jostled the ranks of Americana. Anne Isaacs' original text unfolds in a crackling combination of irony, exaggeration, and bold image-making. Zelinsky's paintings respond with deft yet hilarious expressions, rhythmic shapes, and a sense of monumental motion, as benefits a heroine who can wield a tornado like a lasso, drink a lake dry, and snore down a forest. In the course of these grand shenanigans, the Great Smoky Mountains are stirred up, Montana's short-grass prairie laid down, and Thundering Tarnation's fate proves to have no less a reach than the starry heavens.Swamp Angel marks the debut of a promising new storyteller and adds to the tall-tale traditions a pictorial counterpart that will entertain and endure for a long time to come.

Now this Student Edition in two volumes makes this rich, rugged story of the American pioneer spirit more accessible to young readers. Patrick Smith tells of three generations of the MacIveys, a Florida family battling the hardships of the frontier. The story opens in 1858, when Tobias and Emma MacIvey arrive in the Florida wilderness with their son, Zech, to start a new life, and ends in 1968 with Solomon MacIvey, who realizes that his wealth has not been worth the cost to the land. Between is a sweeping story rich in Florida history with a cast of memorable characters who battle wild animals, rustlers, Confederate deserters, mosquitoes, starvation, hurricanes, and freezes to carve a kingdom out of the Florida swamp. In this volume, meet young Zech MacIvey, who learns to ride like the wind through the Florida scrub on Ishmael, his marshtackie horse, his dogs, Nip and Tuck, at this side. His parents, Tobias and Emma, scratch a living from the land, gathering wild cows from the swamp and herding them across the state to market. Zech learns the ways of the land from the Seminoles, with whom his life becomes entwined as he grows into manhood. Next in series > > See all of the books in this series
