The Notebooks of Robert Frost
Author: Robert Frost
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674034678
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 415
Book Description
During his lifetime, Robert Frost notoriously resisted collecting his prose--going so far as to halt the publication of one prepared compilation and to "lose" the transcripts of the Charles Eliot Norton Lectures he delivered at Harvard in 1936. But for all his qualms, Frost conceded to his son that "you can say a lot in prose that verse won't let you say," and that the prose he had written had in fact "made good competition for [his] verse." This volume, the first critical edition of Robert Frost's prose, allows readers and scholars to appreciate the great American author's forays beyond poetry, and to discover in the prose that he did make public--in newspapers, magazines, journals, speeches, and books--the wit, force, and grace that made his poetry famous. The Collected Prose of Robert Frost offers an extensive and illuminating body of work, ranging from juvenilia--Frost's contributions to his high school Bulletin--to the charming "chicken stories" he wrote as a young family man for The Eastern Poultryman and Farm Poultry, to such famous essays as "The Figure a Poem Makes" and the speeches and contributions to magazines solicited when he had become the Grand Old Man of American letters. Gathered, annotated, and cross-referenced by Mark Richardson, the collection is based on extensive work in archives of Frost's manuscripts. It provides detailed notes on the author's habits of composition and on important textual issues and includes much previously unpublished material. It is a book of boundless appeal and importance, one that should find a home on the bookshelf of anyone interested in Frost.

The 8th Heaven
Author: Naim Hasan
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1425978363
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 674
Book Description
This book carries you into a deep human spirit into one human soul. It gives you a deep look at human life; in its past, present, and future. This book is a good screenplay. It helps you to find yourself, in life, and to let you know who you are as a human soul. The Eighth Heaven will demonstrate that to you, the book will also tell you that the aliens have a great power of energy and a great sense of direction; in the human soul, as well as life and it demonstrates which way the worlds should go in the human deepest soul. It tells you how the heart can take on an evil soul; how your good soul can change into evil. The beast, called Eve, a.k.a. Lucifer is an evil spirit. We all have some Eve in us, but if we let evil spirits turn our hearts, minds, and souls into animals, then we have lost our human soul. This book also talks about how the land lords and the masters come down on Earth from the eighth heaven to help Adam kill Eve. After six thousand years, and after the death of Christ, Adam is to build up good human souls on Earth. We all have some animal instinct. Sometimes, that instinct can take over our entire bodies, including our minds and souls. If we do not learn how to control that animal within us, the animal will be in control. We will no longer have control over our souls, minds, or bodies. The book also talks about how the god's angel is in control in the eighth heaven. The gods have the power to change our souls back to good. The god's angels, masters, and lords have a duty to carry out with their power, whether it is earth, wind, fire, or water. They have that power in God's world today.

Levittown
Author: David Kushner
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0802719732
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
In the decade after World War II, one entrepreneurial family helped thousands of people buy into the American dream of owning a home, not just any home, but a good one, with all the modern conveniences. The Levitts--two brothers, William and Alfred, and their father, Abe--pooled their talents in land use, architecture, and sales to create story book town with affordable little houses. They laid out the welcome mat, but not to everyone. Levittown had a whites-only policy. This is the story that unfolded in Levittown, PA, one unseasonably hot summer in 1957 on a quiet street called Deepgreen Lane. There, a white Jewish Communist family named Wechsler secretly arranged for a black family, the Myers, to buy the little pink house next door. What followed was an explosive summer of violence that would transform their lives, and the nation. It would lead to the downfall of a titan, and the integration of the most famous suburb in the world. It's a story of hope and fear, invention and rebellion, and the power that comes when ordinary people take an extraordinary stand.

The Last Sea Dog
Author: Jean-Luc Van Den Heede
Publisher: Fernhurst Books Limited
ISBN: 1912621975
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
The Last Sea Dog tells the story of Jean-Luc Van Den Heede's life and his many sailing adventures, focussing on his triumph in the 2018/19 Golden Globe Race. Jean-Luc has rounded Cape Horn 12 times and completed six solo circumnavigations. These have resulted in five race podiums and one world record, which he still currently holds. He has been on the podium twice in the Vendée Globe single-handed race around the world, coming third in 1990 and second in 1993. More recently he won the Golden Globe Race in 2018/19 at the age of 73. This race was run as a fiftieth anniversary of the 1968 race of the same name won by Sir Robin Knox-Johnston. While the restriction of no assistance and no stopovers were not particularly unusual, more challenging were the requirements to sail the race 'as in 1968' with yachts similar to those available in that year and, except for safety equipment, no modern technology allowed. No satellite-based navigation aids were available to the sailors and they had to use a sextant to navigate around the world as Robin had done fifty years previously. Jean-Luc was born in Amiens, far from the sea, and he became a maths teacher. Nevertheless, he developed a passion for competitive sailing. He is friendly and easy to approach, but he is also a formidable competitor with an abundance of courage and perseverance. This personal account of his life and the Golden Globe Race is an amazing story of a man who has faced the toughest times and sea and won through
