Book Synopsis Clearing in the Sky & Other Stories by : Jesse Stuart
Download or read book Clearing in the Sky & Other Stories written by Jesse Stuart and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 1984-05-03 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here are twenty-one tales from Kentucky's inimitable and beloved storyteller, Jesse Stuart. Full of high, rambunctious humor, quick-paced as a mountain square dance, bright as a maple tree against an October hill -- these stories are Stuart in his best form -- the form that has made him one of the most widely read authors in America. Read here about the man who coveted a steam shovel and stole it piece by piece, or about the celebrated eating contest between Sam Whiteapple and the game rooster, or about the hill farmer who wanted to clear and farm one last spot of new ground before he died. Although he has a sharp eye for human foibles and infirmities, Stuart never fails to write of his people with affection or to see that justice is done them. Originally published in 1950, Clearing in the Sky was inadvertently declared out of print after three years and never reprinted. Now for Jesse Stuart's many readers it is once more available with an appreciative foreword by Ruel Foster.

Book Synopsis Thrifty Stock, and Other Stories by : Ben Ames Williams
Download or read book Thrifty Stock, and Other Stories written by Ben Ames Williams and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-11-05 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first seven stories in this book have either locale or characters in common. The village called Fraternity is an actual one; and the surrounding countryside has a beauty which grows with long acquaintance. It is perhaps unnecessary to say that the characters are—with one exception—fictitious. The exception is Mr. A. L. McCorrison, better known as Bert McCorrison, who introduced the author to the trout brooks and the woodcock covers thereabouts. He appears in some of the stories, under the name of Chet McAusland. The third story in the book, "Old Tantrybogus," is—so far as the dog is concerned—a true story. The last two stories in the Fraternity group, "Jeshurun Waxed Fat" and "Epitome," together with the succeeding seven, are each less than four thousand words in length. These stories represent successive attempts to combine brevity with other and more elusive attributes.

Book Synopsis Sketches of a Siberian Tourist and other stories by : Vladimir Korolenko
Download or read book Sketches of a Siberian Tourist and other stories written by Vladimir Korolenko and published by LA CASE Books. This book was released on 2022-08-23 with total page 1188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The writings of Vladimir Korolenko have been likened to “a fresh breeze blowing through the heavy air of a hospital.” The hospital is the pessimistic literature of the modern Russian intellectuals; the fresh breeze is the voice of the simple-hearted children of “Mother Russia.” These are for the most part tillers of the soil and conquerors of waste places; peasants, pioneers, and Siberian exiles; they often belong to the great class of “the insulted and the injured”: they suffer untold hardships, but their heads are unbowed and their hearts are full of courage and the desire for justice. Among them the great writer’s early life was spent.
Book Synopsis Ambiguity Machines and Other Stories by : Vandana Singh
Download or read book Ambiguity Machines and Other Stories written by Vandana Singh and published by Zubaan. This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the success of her collection The Woman Who Thought She Was a Planet, Vandana Singh returns to the short story in Ambiguity Machines. Her deep humanism interplays with her scientific background in stories that consider and celebrate this world and others, with characters who try to make sense of the people they meet, what they see, and the challenges they face. An eleventh century poet wakes to find he is an artificially intelligent companion on a starship. A woman of no account has the ability to look into the past. And in ‘Requiem,’ a major new novella, a woman goes to Alaska to try and make sense of her aunt’s disappearance. Examining the revolutionary potential of speculative fiction, Singh dives deep into the vast strangeness of the universe without and within to explore the ways in which we move through space and time: together, yet always apart.
