Book Synopsis Victorian Short Stories by : Elizabeth Gaskell
Download or read book Victorian Short Stories written by Elizabeth Gaskell and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-09-26 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elizabeth Gaskell, Thomas Hardy, George Moore, Walter Besant and Henry James are the contributors in this collection of short Victorian stories. "The Manchester Marriage" (Elizabeth Gaskell) - Probably the most romantic of the tales, and the most sentimental as well as the most predictable. "A Mere Interlude" (Thomas Hardy) - Thomas Hardy always seems to have a knack for creating stunningly flawed characters, and the female lead, Baptista, is no exception. Her flaw is that she has no self-esteem, confidence, or ambition, but seems content to a vapid existence where all decisions are made by others, including an abusive ex-boyfriend. The success of her marriage seems to be in that she eventually finally figures out a way to be at least moderately in charge of her own life, via being forced to take charge of her husband's children. "A Faithful Heart" (George Moore) - Here's where the feeling of "Successful Marriage" being a euphemism for "Women enduring bullying men" really comes to the fore. Speaking from the stance of a modern woman without children, you will find the treatment endured by the Major's wife appalling, and could never imagine putting up with, let alone being thankful for, such contemptible conduct - but it is better than being cast off and censured as a fallen woman in Victorian England. "The Solid Gold Reef Company" (Walter Besant) - Probably the most interesting aspect of this story is the way that it is told: almost purely through dialogue, with nearly no explanation of characters or who is speaking. It is left to the audience to deduce the characters and their motivations, thus making it a story in which truly, the characters really speak for themselves - there is no narrator to speak for them. You will find some of the dialogue interesting, for 1895, with modish slang and terms of address that seemed quite ahead of their time. "The Tree of Knowledge" (Henry James) - James' mastery of character is evident in this short story about a proud man, Peter Brench, who is in love with his best friend's wife but has never revealed it. While not a lot of physical movement happens in this story from scene to scene, we see the depth of his insecurity as the story progresses. Peter discovers that, despite all his knowledge, his overconfidence has caused him to be wrong about one tiny fact, which completely changes the meaning of his life. It's beautiful, sad, and powerful. Scroll Up and Get Your Copy!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speculative fiction from the acclaimed bestselling author of Exit, Pursued by a Bear and Star Wars: Ahsoka. Victoria-Margaret is the crown princess of the empire, a direct descendent of Victoria I, the queen who changed the course of history. The imperial tradition of genetically arranged matchmaking will soon guide Margaret into a politically advantageous marriage. But before she does her duty, she'll have one summer of freedom and privacy in a far corner of empire. Posing as a commoner in Toronto, she meets Helena Marcus, daughter of one of the empire's greatest placement geneticists, and August Callaghan, the heir to a powerful shipping firm currently besieged by American pirates. In a summer of high-society debutante balls, politically charged tea parties, and romantic country dances, Margaret, Helena, and August discover they share an extraordinary bond and maybe a one-in-a-million chance to have what they want and to change the world in the process. Set in a near-future world where the British Empire was preserved not by the cost of blood and theft but by the effort of repatriation and promises kept, That Inevitable Victorian Thing is a surprising, romantic, and thought-provoking story of love, duty, and the small moments that can change people and the world. ★ "This witty and romantic story is a must-read.”—SLJ, starred review ★ "Compelling and unique—there's nothing else like it."—Booklist, starred review. ★ "[A] powerful and resonant story of compassion, love, and finding a way to fulfill obligations while maintaining one’s identity."—PW, starred review

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Mr and Mrs Openshaw came from Manchester to settle in London. He had been, what is called in Lancashire, a salesman for a large manufacturing firm, who were extending their business, and opening a warehouse in the city; where Mr Openshaw was now to superintend their affairs. He rather enjoyed the change; having a kind of curiosity about London, which he had never yet been able to gratify in his brief visits to the metropolis. At the same time, he had an odd, shrewd contempt for the inhabitants, whom he always pictured to himself as fine, lazy people, caring nothing but for fashion and aristocracy, and lounging away their days in Bond Street, and such places; ruining good English, and ready in their turn to despise him as a provincial."
