Book Synopsis A Saunter With Death by : Z Halferty
Download or read book A Saunter With Death written by Z Halferty and published by Z Halferty. This book was released on 2014-05-07 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A plague has been cast upon the Earth, turning people into animal-like, cannibalistic beings. With no humanity about them, they devour any creature they encounter, leaving death and destruction in their wake. Read as Kmoneiethe, a young "prepper," struggles to survive the hell that has become his new home as he records, in detail, his experiences. Plagued by a series of misfortunes throughout his journey, his own sanity comes into question; bits of his memory becoming voids, strange occurrences becoming standard, and his actions becoming something of a mystery.....those of a creature; if you will. With little help from his short-known friend, Kmoneiethe endures some of the most challenging obstacle of his life. Each becoming seemingly more difficult as his mental and physical health degrade. Will he survive this new world? Or become another statistic among those that have already fallen?
Book Synopsis Collected Poems of Anthony Hecht by : Anthony Hecht
Download or read book Collected Poems of Anthony Hecht written by Anthony Hecht and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 641 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his centenary year, this volume of the Pulitzer Prize winner and former poet laureate’s poems celebrates the indispensable artistry of a writer who faced the history of his era with a “clear-eyed mercy toward human weakness” (The New York Times Book Review) and was hailed in his day as “the best poet writing in English” (Joseph Brodsky). This volume brings together for the first time all of the poems that appeared in Anthony Hecht’s seven trade collections, from A Summoning of Stones of 1954 through to The Darkness and the Light of 2001; it adds the remarkable work contained in his posthumously issued Interior Skies: Late Poems from Liguria of 2011; and it rounds this out with the best of the many poems which were left uncollected at the time of his death in 2004, the earliest dating from 1950 and the latest from 2001. Including the woodcuts by Leonard Baskin that accompanied some of his pieces through the years, Collected Poems brings us the full sweep of the experience and artistry of Anthony Hecht, who, as an infantryman in World War II, bore witness to the shaping events of his time, which continue to shape our own. As the editor Philip Hoy states in his introduction: “Anthony Hecht once wrote that poems can allow us to contemplate our ‘sweetest triumphs’ and our ‘deepest desolations,’ and by employing ‘the manifold devices of art’ to recover for us what he memorably called ‘the inexhaustible plenitude of the world.’ The work gathered together here amply attests to the truth of that claim, and makes it clear that Hecht was one of the finest poets, not just of his generation, but of the twentieth century.”
Book Synopsis Collected Later Poems of Anthony Hecht by : Anthony Hecht
Download or read book Collected Later Poems of Anthony Hecht written by Anthony Hecht and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2009-03-04 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthony Hecht, now in his eightieth year, has earned a place alongside such poets as W. H. Auden, Robert Frost, and Elizabeth Bishop. Here under one cover are his three most recent collections–The Transparent Man, Flight Among the Tombs, and The Darkness and the Light. The perfect companion to his Collected Earlier Poems (continuously in print since 1990), this book brings the eloquent sound of Hecht’s music to bear on a wide variety of human dramas: from a young woman dying of leukemia to the tangled love affairs of A Midsummer Night’s Dream; from Death as the director of Hollywood films to the unexpected image of Marcel Proust as a figure skater. He glides with a gaining confidence, inscribes Tentative passages, thinks again, backtracks, Comes to a minute point, Then wheels about in widening sweeps and lobes, Large Palmer cursives and smooth entrelacs, Preoccupied, intent On a subtle, long-drawn style and pliant script Incised with twin steel blades and qualified Perfectly to express, With arms flung wide or gloved hands firmly gripped Behind his back, attentively, clear-eyed, A glancing happiness.
Book Synopsis Death in Venice and Other Stories by : Thomas Mann
Download or read book Death in Venice and Other Stories written by Thomas Mann and published by Bantam Classics. This book was released on 1988-09-01 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This superb translation of Death in Venice and six other stories by Thomas Mann is a tour de force, deserving to be the definitive text for English-speaking readers. These seven stories represent Mann’s early writing career and a level of literary quality Mann himself despaired of ever again matching. In these stories he began to grapple with themes that were to recur throughout his work. In Little Herr Friedemann, a character’s carefully structured way of life is suddenly threatened by an unexpected sexual passion. In Gladius Dei, puritanical intellect clashes with beauty. In Tristan, Mann presents an ironic and comic account of the tension between an artist and bourgeois society. All seven of these stories are accomplished and memorable, but it is Death in Venice that truly forms the centerpiece of the collection. The themes that Mann weaves through the shorter pieces come to a climax in this stunning novella, one of the most hauntingly magnificent tales of art and self-destruction ever written.
