Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tales from Northland. THE GOD OF HIS FATHERS (excerpt) On every hand stretched the forest primeval, -the home of noisy comedy and silent tragedy. Here the struggle for survival continued to wage with all its ancient brutality. Briton and Russian were still to overlap in the Land of the Rainbow's End-and this was the very heart of it-nor had Yankee gold yet purchased its vast domain. The wolf-pack still clung to the flank of the cariboo-herd, singling out the weak and the big with calf, and pulling them down as remorselessly as were it a thousand, thousand generations into the past. The sparse aborigines still acknowledged the rule of their chiefs and medicine men, drove out bad spirits, burned their witches, fought their neighbors, and ate their enemies with a relish which spoke well of their bellies. But it was at the moment when the stone age was drawing to a close. Already, over unknown trails and chartless wildernesses, were the harbingers of the steel arriving, ...

Download or read book My Father's Tears written by John Updike and published by Random House. This book was released on 2009-06-02 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sensational collection of stories of the American experience from the Depression to the aftermath of 9/11, by one of the most gifted American writers of the twentieth century and the author of the acclaimed Rabbit series. John Updike mingles narratives of Pennsylvania with stories of New England suburbia and of foreign travel: “Personal Archaeology” considers life as a sequence of half-buried layers, and “The Full Glass” distills a lifetime’s happiness into one brimming moment of an old man’s bedtime routine. High-school class reunions, in “The Walk with Elizanne” and “The Road Home,” restore their hero to youth’s commonwealth where, as the narrator of the title story confides, “the self I value is stored, however infrequently I check on its condition.” Exotic locales encountered in the journeys of adulthood include Morocco, Florida, Spain, Italy, and India. The territory of childhood, with its fundamental, formative mysteries, is explored in “The Guardians,” “The Laughter of the Gods,” and “Kinderszenen.” Love’s fumblings among the bourgeoisie yield the tart comedy of “Free,” “Delicate Wives,” “The Apparition,” and “Outage.”

Book Synopsis Reality and Other Stories by : Peter Dray
Download or read book Reality and Other Stories written by Peter Dray and published by Inter-Varsity Press. This book was released on 2022-08-18 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories shape us and give us meaning - but is it coincidence that the same seven basic plots repeat over time and across the world? What if stories not only reveal something about human psychology, but also give us clues to the meaning of the reality we live in? In Reality and Other Stories, Peter Dray and Matt Lillicrap explore how seven story archetypes - Overcoming the Monster, Rags to Riches, The Quest, Voyage and Return, Comedy, Tragedy and Rebirth - are not only universal, but also found in the story of Christ. As they unpack each example, they demonstrate how our deepest longing find fulfilment in Jesus' story. This is not just another Christian apologetics book. Reality and Other Stories is an ideal gift to give to new Christians and those just beginning to explore faith. The authors show the power of storytelling to affect our lives, and through examples of story archetypes demonstrates that the life of Jesus truly is the story at the heart of reality. Reality and Other Stories will help you explore Jesus' story for yourself and better understand how through Jesus, we can discover the true story of reality that gives ultimate purpose to our lives.
Book Synopsis Author Under Sail by : James (Jay) W. Williams
Download or read book Author Under Sail written by James (Jay) W. Williams and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 613 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London’s work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London’s “Story of a Typhoon” to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.

Book Synopsis The Sweet's Price for Edenville and Other Stories of Black Gay Males by : Conrad Pegues
Download or read book The Sweet's Price for Edenville and Other Stories of Black Gay Males written by Conrad Pegues and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-05-08 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sweet's Price for Edenville and Other Stories of Black Gay Males consists of eight short stories about black gay males in the Southeastern United States and the ways they try to define their sexuality within a culture that can love them just as much as it can attempt to conscript them in a narrow definition of blackness and manhood in a long war against racism. Often the first casualty is the heart. From the very young who may not know the word "gay" to the older who may run from that same word or try to define themselves within it, each is trying to make a space for an authentic expression of their humanity in loving and sometimes hostile personal worlds.
