Book Description
Excerpt from Holiday Rambles, or Peeps Into the Book of Nature Oh' dear mamma, said George, springing into his mother's arms, how delighted I am to see you, and Agnes, and Helen, and all at my own dear home. After these mutual congratulations were ended, the boys found time to return the caresses of a beautiful Newfoundland dog, named Neptune. He was a great favourite, and expressed his delight by jumping upon his young masters, and rolling over and over a pretty little spaniel, called Rover, who was rather annoyed by the rough gambols of his companion. In due time, however, they quietly seated themselves to enjoy some refreshment after their journey, and to hear and relate what had happened during their absence. After luncheon, the children went out to visit the garden, and their numerous pets. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Thus Bad Begins
Author: Javier Marías
Publisher: Knopf
ISBN: 1101946083
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 465
Book Description
**Named a Best Book of the Year by the Boston Globe and Los Angeles Times** From the internationally acclaimed author of The Infatuations comes the mesmerizing story of a couple living in the shadow of a mysterious, unhappy history--a novel about the cruel, tender punishments we exact on those we love. Madrid, 1980. Juan de Vere, nearly finished with his university degree, takes a job as personal assistant to Eduardo Muriel, an eccentric, once-successful film director. Urbane, discreet, irreproachable, Muriel is an irresistible idol to the young man. But Muriel's voluptuous wife, Beatriz, inhabits their home like an unwanted ghost; and on the periphery of their lives is Dr. Jorge Van Vechten, a family friend implicated in unsavory rumors that Muriel now asks Juan to investigate. As Juan draws closer to the truth, he uncovers only more questions. What is at the root of Muriel's hostility toward his wife? How did Beatriz meet Van Vechten? What happened during the war? Marías leads us deep into the intrigues of these characters, through a daring exploration of rancor, suspicion, loyalty, trust, and the infinitely permeable boundaries between the deceptions perpetrated on us by others and those we inflict upon ourselves.
