An Unusual Courtship
Author: Antoinette George
Publisher: Brangwyn Press
ISBN: 1914160010
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Compelling romance and swashbuckling thrills. The dramatic and gripping story of one man with two lives and the woman he craves, but cannot have… He was the handsome aristocrat and charismatic adventurer who created a dynasty and she was the feisty, unconventional woman he loved. He was English and she was French, two strong-willed people determined never to give in to each other, and a devious, diabolical enemy determined to exact revenge on the smuggler who had constantly evaded him and thwarted his nefarious plans, Set at the end of the 18th century when France was on the cusp of a bloodthirsty Revolution, this is an exciting and unputdownable tale of daring escapes, broken promises, distrust and misunderstandings, all threaded through by a passionate and turbulent love affair, a scorching romance that wouldn’t be denied. Part 2: An Unusual Courtship She’d nearly lost her life but had survived, thanks to The Shadow. However, now in London, Marie-Catherine de Mornay is bereft, heartbroken and angry. Her distrust of men has been compounded by the smuggler she’d finally lost her heart to: he’d broken his promises, abandoned her, and for all she knew he could be dead, given who he was and his profession. She tells herself she has to move on and be practical. That means finding a wealthy husband who will be willing to help support her refugee family. Although an aristocrat by birth, she is a foreigner without a dowry and with only her looks to commend her, Marie-Catherine knows her task isn’t going to be easy. Also, whether she can find someone she cares about enough to tie herself to for a lifetime she doubts, but it has to be done. Once again, Marie-Catherine is determined to succeed in what she sets out to do and so starts to look for a man she can finally put her trust in, even if she doesn’t love him. But will she find one and can any man really be trusted? Even her beloved brother?

A History of Canadian Literature
Author: W.H. New
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 0773571361
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 487
Book Description
New offers an unconventionally structured overview of Canadian literature, from Native American mythologies to contemporary texts. Publishers Weekly A History of Canadian Literature looks at the work of writers and the social and cultural contexts that helped shape their preoccupations and direct their choice of literary form. W.H. New explains how - from early records of oral tales to the writing strategies of the early twenty-first century - writer, reader, literature, and society are interrelated. New discusses both Aboriginal and European mythologies, looking at pre-Contact narratives and also at the way Contact experience altered hierarchies of literary value. He then considers representations of the "real," whether in documentary, fantasy, or satire; historical romance and the social construction of Nature and State; and ironic subversions of power, the politics of cultural form, and the relevance of the media to a representation of community standard and individual voice. New suggests some ways in which writers of the later twentieth century codified such issues as history, gender, ethnicity, and literary technique itself. In this second edition, he adds a lengthy chapter that considers how writers at the turn of the twenty-first century have reimagined their society and their roles within it, and an expanded chronology and bibliography. Some of these writers have spoken from and about various social margins (dealing with issues of race, status, ethnicity, and sexuality), some have sought emotional understanding through strategies of history and memory, some have addressed environmental concerns, and some have reconstructed the world by writing across genres and across different media. All genres are represented, with examples chosen primarily, but not exclusively, from anglophone and francophone texts. A chronology, plates, and a series of tables supplement the commentary.
