Download or read book 4 Classic Ghostly Tales written by Anita Miller and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here lie four remarkable ghost stories, carefully culled from a genre that had a great flowering in the mid-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. They have been chosen because they are skillfully written; the reader—like the protagonists—is drawn slowly and inexorably into a nightmare that seems all the more credible because the world in which it happens is ordinary, filled with realistic detail. In addition, each of the four authors employs consideration psychological insight, so that the tales operate on multiple levels. The length of these stories has prevented them from being frequently anthologized. Aficionados of ghost stories are in for a treat! Included in this collection: "The Beckoning Fair One" by Oliver Onions, "How Love Came to Professor Guildea" by Robert Hichens, "The Old Nurse's Story" by Elizabeth Gaskell, "Couching at the Door" by D.K. Broster

Book excerpt: "Unhurried Tales brings together, for the very first time, Ruskin Bond's favourite (and finest) novellas. These stories speak of a world that has long vanished, but it is a world that has lost none of its power to enchant. Whether we are accompanying Sita on her perilous journey down the angry river or Bisnu as he gets the better of a dangerous leopard, whether we delight in Binya's joy at owning her blue umbrella or are saddened by the fate of the last tiger, whether we laugh uproariously at the antics of the eccentric guests at the 'hotel' in Shamli, get involved in the adventures of the boys in Pipalnagar or plunge into the various goings-on in the 'backwater' of Fosterganj, we are always entertained, always charmed."--Publisher.

Download or read book Home of the Gentry written by Ivan Turgenev and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2007-12-06 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On one level the novel is about the homecoming of Lavretsky, who, broken and disillusioned by a failed marriage, returns to his estate and finds love again - only to lose it. The sense of loss and of unfulfilled promise, beautifully captured by Turgenev, reflects his underlying theme that humanity is not destined to experience happiness except as something ephemeral and inevitably doomed. On another level Turgenev is presenting the homecoming of a whole generation of young Russians who have fallen under the spell of European ideas that have uprooted them from Russia, their 'home', but have proved ultimately superfluous. In tragic bewilderment, they attempt to find reconciliation with their land.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Make use of a detailed plan and ready-to-use lessons for teaching appeal terms and Book Hook writing to students. Getting Beyond "Interesting": Teaching Students the Vocabulary of Appeal to Discuss Their Reading is a practical application book that gives librarians all the tools they need to implement the teaching of both appeal terms and Book Hook writing and sharing. When students know how to write Book Hooks and have access to an easy-to-use system for allowing students to share Book Hooks, the result is greatly increased reading through the power of peer recommendations. This book not only supplies a detailed plan for teaching appeal terms and Book Hook writing, but it also provides two extensive appendices containing all the black line masters and forms needed to implement these lessons. As a result, practitioners will be able to enhance their students' reading culture through increased sharing of reading—and most importantly, by empowering students with the ability to clearly define their reading preferences.

Download or read book Tales from an Inkslinger written by Ione Nettum Greene Woodford and published by Hillcrest Publishing Group. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1929, a band of gypsies invaded the North Dakota farm where five-year-old Ione Nettum lived with her family. Though shocking and scary, the encounter left behind something more precious than anything they stole: wanderlust, the desire to move, to travel, and to taste all that life has to offer. Tales from an Inkslinger: The Memoir of a Maverick, is the story of that life--a life lived both simply and on the road, and a life of romance filled with both grand adventure and simple pleasures. Looking back on the nine decades of her life, Ione picks and chooses her stories, giving us--her lucky readers--glimpses not only into her life, but into the changes the past century has held. Even now, with the Internet making the world a smaller and smaller place, her joys and experiences in life as a Wander Vogel (bird of passage), are some most readers can all only dream of matching.

Download or read book Faulkner and the Craft of Fiction written by Doreen Fowler and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2010-01-06 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1944, William Faulkner wrote to Malcolm Cowley, “I'm telling the same story over and over which is myself and the world. That's all a writer ever does, he tells his own biography in a thousand different terms.” With these words, Faulkner suggests that what changes in the course of his prolific novel-writing career is not so much the content but the style, “the thousand different terms” of his fiction. The essays in Faulkner and the Craft of Fiction, first presented at the 1987 Faulkner and Yoknapatawpha Conference at the University of Mississippi, focus on Faulkner's narrative inventiveness, on how Faulkner, like his character Benjy in The Sound and the Fury, relentlessly kept “trying to say.” The contributors, authorities on Faulkner's narrative, offer a wide variety of critical approaches to Faulkner's fiction-writing process. Cleanth Brooks, for example, applies the strategies of New Criticism to Faulkner's rendering of the heroic and pastoral modes; Judith L. Sensibar attempts to locate biographical sources for repeated Faulknerian paradigms; and Philip M. Weinstein draws on the theories of the Marxist Althusser and the French psychoanalyst Lacan. The topics examined are similarly wide-ranging.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rave reviews for my 1st book – Fascinating Thoughts – encourages me to go for one more. It is again a collection of my articles written over a period of time. Pun in expression always fascinates me. I see pun in almost everything. It packs a ‘pun’ch surely! When there is pun, there is fun. ‘If-there-is-none, I-will-find-one’ is my playful and favorite challenge. Welcome to Funny & Punny – and their fascinating tales! Mindful that mind is a minefield of mindboggling and endless emotions, this collection broadly consists of articles articulating my thoughts relating to human psychology, general lifestyle, views on current political matters, my banking experiences. Mindful of the short and mercurial attention span, I have tried to confine my articles to one page or less for most part! The joy of writing is immense, more so when some are published in Bank’s house magazines, prominent newspapers. ‘Sach’an Impact of Milestones, Writer’s Gambit, Working in Tandem, Funglish appeared in The New Indian Express in its Timeout \ Mind Space columns. The Hindu carried ‘Hey, Consumers, Beware of these offers’ in its Open Page. I have created two characters – Funny & Punny – through whom I develop a dialogue, a conversation. As you read, you will find that F&P are illustrative characters indulging in soul-searching, reflective enquiries, teasing one’s conscience with probing questions, highlighting life’s contradictions encompassing the wide range of emotions besides cheering you up with rib-tickling puns.

Download or read book Talking Tales written by Violet Barungi and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2009 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Talking Tales a variety of women tell their stories in prose and poetry. They cast their nets wide, hauling in themes that celebrate as much as they castigate and mourn. There is the delight of discovering oneself on the cusp of womanhood, and of hearing about success in the fight for women's emancipation. There is also the wonder at the restorative power of love. However, The murkier side of human life is explored too: The failed search for love, unwanted advances, misunderstood affinities, incest, betrayal, disillusionment, unfruitful enterprise, domestic violence, corruption, brutality, injustice, The capriciousness of fortune...The realistic, The near-fantastic And The bizarre all find their place here. The themes are handled with forthrightness and humour as the writers take full advantage of the possibilities inherent in the different ways of telling tales: poetic, epistolary, expository, and straightforward narrative.
