Book excerpt: In the Hugo-award winning, epic New York Times Bestseller and basis for the BBC miniseries, two men change England's history when they bring magic back into the world. In the midst of the Napoleonic Wars in 1806, most people believe magic to have long since disappeared from England - until the reclusive Mr. Norrell reveals his powers and becomes an overnight celebrity. Another practicing magician then emerges: the young and daring Jonathan Strange. He becomes Norrell's pupil, and the two join forces in the war against France. But Strange is increasingly drawn to the wild, most perilous forms of magic, and he soon risks sacrificing his partnership with Norrell and everything else he holds dear. Susanna Clarke's brilliant first novel is an utterly compelling epic tale of nineteenth-century England and the two magicians who, first as teacher and pupil and then as rivals, emerge to change its history.

Book Synopsis My Life in the Wake of Norris Lake by : Mike Due
Download or read book My Life in the Wake of Norris Lake written by Mike Due and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-11-18 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Randal "Turkey" McNew is a well-known boat repairman and dry dock operator who lives along the shores of Lake Norris, Tennessee. His parents operated a marina in Greasy Hollow in the 1950's. Turkey, along with his four siblings, helped their parents make ends meet by working the docks. After leaving the lake area during his high school years and working on heavy equipment in the coal industry, Turkey returned to build a career on the water. In the town of New Tazwell, Turkey built his business of helping boat owners keep their vessels afloat and in good repair. Got a houseboat on the bottom of the lake? No worries, Turkey to the rescue. Need a Party Captain? Turkey will take you out on the water for a good time. Need a place to keep your boat during the off-season? No worries, Turkey's got just the spot with his dry dock business.In this biography, Turkey will share his knowledge of the region, including stories of how the lake was built, yarns about the rich and famous who have passed through the area over the years, and stories of murder and mystery. It is a Tennessee tour-de-force of folk lore, focusing on mountain life as it once existed in the 1930's up to modern times. One of Turkey's main objectives for this memoir is to give the reader a clear understanding of what it was like for residents along the Tennessee River to give up their land in a massive relocation effort to make way for Norris Lake. In many cases, these were farms that had been cleared in the wilderness and passed down through several generations, only for the families who lived there to be told by the government that it would be their land no more. If they resisted, their living quarters would eventually be uninhabitable, submerged below the crystal-clear waters of Lake Norris. Anyone familiar with Norris Lake or any one of its 23 marinas will find this an entertaining and informative read. Note: Turkey's tales may be inappropriate for young readers.

Download or read book Unmarriageable written by Soniah Kamal and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This inventive retelling of Pride and Prejudice charms.”—People “A fun, page-turning romp and a thought-provoking look at the class-obsessed strata of Pakistani society.”—NPR Alys Binat has sworn never to marry—until an encounter with one Mr. Darsee at a wedding makes her reconsider. A scandal and vicious rumor concerning the Binat family have destroyed their fortune and prospects for desirable marriages, but Alys, the second and most practical of the five Binat daughters, has found happiness teaching English literature to schoolgirls. Knowing that many of her students won’t make it to graduation before dropping out to marry and have children, Alys teaches them about Jane Austen and her other literary heroes and hopes to inspire the girls to dream of more. When an invitation arrives to the biggest wedding their small town has seen in years, Mrs. Binat, certain that their luck is about to change, excitedly sets to work preparing her daughters to fish for rich, eligible bachelors. On the first night of the festivities, Alys’s lovely older sister, Jena, catches the eye of Fahad “Bungles” Bingla, the wildly successful—and single—entrepreneur. But Bungles’s friend Valentine Darsee is clearly unimpressed by the Binat family. Alys accidentally overhears his unflattering assessment of her and quickly dismisses him and his snobbish ways. As the days of lavish wedding parties unfold, the Binats wait breathlessly to see if Jena will land a proposal—and Alys begins to realize that Darsee’s brusque manner may be hiding a very different man from the one she saw at first glance. Told with wry wit and colorful prose, Unmarriageable is a charming update on Jane Austen’s beloved novel and an exhilarating exploration of love, marriage, class, and sisterhood. Praise for Unmarriageable “Delightful . . . Unmarriageable introduces readers to a rich Muslim culture. . . . [Kamal] observes family dramas with a satiric eye and treats readers to sparkling descriptions of a days-long wedding ceremony, with its high-fashion pageantry and higher social stakes.”—Star Tribune “Thoroughly charming.”—New York Post “[A] funny, sometimes romantic, often thought-provoking glimpse into Pakistani culture, one which adroitly illustrates the double standards women face when navigating sex, love, and marriage. This is a must-read for devout Austenites.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Book Synopsis When Bad Things Happen to Rich People by : Ian Morris
Download or read book When Bad Things Happen to Rich People written by Ian Morris and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Bad Things Happen to Rich People is a novel of social satire, a black comedy set in Chicago in the summer of 1995. The novel's protagonist, Nix Walters, is an adjunct instructor of English at a communications college in the loop with few prospects for advancement. He had become a literary punch line when his novel, touted as the next big literary phenomenon, was universally panned by critics. He and his pregnant wife, Flora, are struggling financially; however, their fortunes change when Nix is asked to ghostwrite the memoirs of publishing magnate Zira Fontaine. While grateful for a lavish author fee, Nix quickly finds his marriage, his career, and his sense of identity threatened as he struggles with a difficult subject, navigates office intrigue of Fontaine's corporation, and faces impending fatherhood. These tensions come to a turbulent climax when a brutal heat wave hits the city. Written in the spirit of great naturalist novelists of the previous century, such as Dreiser, Norris, and Crane, with a black comic twist, Morris's first novel is a study in aspiration and self-deception in the face of unforeseen adversity. Set among the broad lawns of Lake Forest where the domestic staff skim leaves from the pool and the sweltering streets of Chicago's pre-gentrified Wicker Park neighborhood, where children plunge into the raging stream of open fire hydrants, When Bad Things Happen to Rich People is a broad panorama of our current social reality.
