Book Synopsis Franny and Zooey by : J. D. Salinger
Download or read book Franny and Zooey written by J. D. Salinger and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Perhaps the best book by the foremost stylist of his generation" (New York Times), J. D. Salinger's Franny and Zooey collects two works of fiction about the Glass family originally published in The New Yorker. "Everything everybody does is so--I don't know--not wrong, or even mean, or even stupid necessarily. But just so tiny and meaningless and--sad-making. And the worst part is, if you go bohemian or something crazy like that, you're conforming just as much only in a different way." A novel in two halves, Franny and Zooey brilliantly captures the emotional strains and traumas of entering adulthood. It is a gleaming example of the wit, precision, and poignancy that have made J. D. Salinger one of America's most beloved writers.

Download or read book A Writer's Life written by Gay Talese and published by Random House Trade Paperbacks. This book was released on 2007-07-10 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inner workings of a writer’s life, the interplay between experience and writing, are brilliantly recounted by a master of the art. Gay Talese now focuses on his own life—the zeal for the truth, the narrative edge, the sometimes startling precision, that won accolades for his journalism and best-sellerdom and acclaim for his revelatory books about The New York Times (The Kingdom and the Power), the Mafia (Honor Thy Father), the sex industry (Thy Neighbor’s Wife), and, focusing on his own family, the American immigrant experience (Unto the Sons). How has Talese found his subjects? What has stimulated, blocked, or inspired his writing? Here are his amateur beginnings on his college newspaper; his professional climb at The New York Times; his desire to write on a larger canvas, which led him to magazine writing at Esquire and then to books. We see his involvement with issues of race from his student days in the Deep South to a recent interracial wedding in Selma, Alabama, where he once covered the fierce struggle for civil rights. Here are his reflections on the changing American sexual mores he has written about over the last fifty years, and a striking look at the lives—and their meaning—of Lorena and John Bobbitt. He takes us behind the scenes of his legendary profile of Frank Sinatra, his writings about Joe DiMaggio and heavyweight champion Floyd Patterson, and his interview with the head of a Mafia family.But he is at his most poignant in talking about the ordinary men and women whose stories led to his most memorable work. In remarkable fashion, he traces the history of a single restaurant location in New York, creating an ethnic mosaic of one restaurateur after the other whose dreams were dashed while a successor’s were born. And as he delves into the life of a young female Chinese soccer player, we see his consuming interest in the world in its latest manifestation.In these and other recollections and stories, Talese gives us a fascinating picture of both the serendipity and meticulousness involved in getting a story. He makes clear that every one of us represents a good one, if a writer has the curiosity to know it, the diligence to pursue it, and the desire to get it right.Candid, humorous, deeply impassioned—a dazzling book about the nature of writing in one man’s life, and of writing itself.

Book excerpt: In 2015, a race of alien Others conquered Earth. They enslaved humanity not by force, but through an aggressive mind control that turned people into contented, unquestioning robots. Except sixteen-year-old Althea isn’t content at all, and she doesn’t need the mysterious note inside her locket to tell her she’s Something Else. It also warns her to trust no one, so she hides the pieces that make her different, even though it means being alone. The autumn she meets Lucas, everything changes. Althea and Lucas are immune to the alien mind control, and together they search for the reason why. What they uncover is a stunning truth the Others never anticipated, one with the potential to free the brainwashed human race. It’s not who they are that makes them special, but what. And what they are is a threat. One the Others are determined to eliminate for good.

Book Synopsis This Impermanent Earth by : Douglas Carlson
Download or read book This Impermanent Earth written by Douglas Carlson and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2021-09 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its thirty-three essays, This Impermanent Earth charts the course of the American literary response to the twentieth century’s accumulation of environmental deprivations. Arranged chronologically from 1974 to the present, the works have been culled from The Georgia Review, long considered an important venue for nonfiction among literary magazines published in the United States. The essays range in subject matter from twentieth-century examples of what was then called nature writing, through writing after 2000 that gradually redefines the environment in increasingly human terms, to a more inclusive expansion that considers all human surroundings as material for environmental inquiry. Likewise, the approaches range from formal essays to prose works that reflect the movement toward innovation and experimentation. The collection builds as it progresses; later essays grow from earlier ones. This Impermanent Earth is more than a historical survey of a literary form, however. The Georgia Review’s talented writers and its longtime commitment to the art of editorial practice have produced a collection that is, as one reviewer put it, “incredibly moving, varied, and inspiring.” It is a book that will be as at home in the reading room as in the classroom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everything changes when Julie Riddle's parents stumble across the wilderness survival guide How to Live in the Woods on Pennies a Day. In 1977, when Riddle is seven years old, she and her family--fed up with the challenges of city life--move to the foot of the Cabinet Mountains Wilderness in northwestern Montana. For three years they live in the primitive basement of the log house they are building by hand in the harsh, remote Montana woods. Meanwhile, haunted by the repressed memory of childhood sexual abuse, Riddle struggles to come to terms with the dark shadows that plague her amid entrenched cultural and gender mores enforced by enduring myths of the West. As Riddle grapples with her own painful secrets, she discovers the world around her and its impact on people--the demands of living in a rural, mountain community dependent on boom-and-bust mining and logging industries, the health and environmental crises of the W. R. Grace asbestos contamination and EPA cleanup, and the healing beauty of the Montana wild. More than simply a memoir about family and place, The Solace of Stones explores Riddle's coming of age and the complexities of memory, loss, and identity borne by a family homesteading in the modern West.

Download or read book Why I Didn't Kill My Former In-Law written by Marge Gleason and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2015-11-05 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Why I Didn’t Kill My Former-In-Law” This story is based on true events. It is the unimaginable horror of what happened to Marge Gleason, left with haunting memories of her mother’s death and her former-in-law who continued to make millions by conning the legal system, and getting away with it because of her close relatives who are judges in a small town. They have a delicious plan to rip off Marge of what was rightfully hers left by her mother in her Will. A few hours after the passing of Marge’s mother, the former-in-law and two of her children robbed Marge’s mother’s home, where they discovered a hidden fortune left to Marge by her mother. This was Marge’s money. But they stole the documents as proof in order for Marge to fight what was legally hers. None of them ever hesitated about having Marge knocked-off. Marge had no doubt they would do what they have threatened and the chaos was just the beginning. But Marge refused to live like a prisoner given the circumstances or the disturbing effect they had on her. The former-in-law was determined to be in control of Marge’s mother’s Will through the power of her relatives sitting on the bench in the law of justice. Marge did not become the angry woman who takes the law into her own hands. Instead, she followed the law of righteousness and did not kill her former-in-law, even though she was constantly tempted every day. Marge learned the hard way how to control her emotions. This took every ounce of personal discipline, even as she was being stalked daily for months at a time by an evil, violent, unpredictable sociopath known as the former-in-law that tried to murder Marge and would have murdered her for her mother’s estate. Even though Marge found it hard to contain her fright at the thought of being eaten alive, she continued to live her life as she prayed for protection every night from a money hungry terrifying nasty former-in-law who lives without a conscience and her only thoughts are, ‘Money is my God.’ (All the Names have been Changed until the Guilty are Exposed) At the end of the book there is a Self Help chapter which includes: Don’t Let this Happen to You! How to Protect yourself as a Rightful Heir!
Download or read book Seven Photographs written by Alan Rossman and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2019-02-14 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wilson Lacy is fast becoming an old man. After a prosperous time as a scientist, teacher, husband, and father, he is now adrift and alone in a shadow-filled house with only his ghosts and memories as companions. Wilson Lacy is beset by a particular kind of sadness, the kind that always grows worse with the onset of winter. This year, as the fiery autumnal colors drain from the trees and his world becomes dipped in a tincture of gray, Wilson hunkers down, preparing for the worst—but then, something changes. On a glorious day in mid-October, when winter is nothing more than a rumor whispering in the cooling breeze, Owen Conway arrives in Wilson’s garage. Through the magic of chance and small town happenstance, Wilson discovers he is not as alone as he thought. During the interminable season that follows, these two friends embark on a trajectory of hope that exposes the sublime story of their lives. Seven Photographs is the saga of a friendship that forms between devastated people. It is a reminder of the combustible force packed into life’s smallest moments—the moments that fracture the orderly sequence of things, the moments we never forget.
