Book Description
Why pick one brother when you can have seven? I grew up next to the Morgans. All boys, and we played doctor sometimes. But now it’s ten years later. I’m back from college. And the Morgans … well, they make me shiver, everything going hot. Because the men are gorgeous. Matt on Monday. Tim on Tuesday. Will on Wednesday. Trent on Thursday. Ford on Friday. Sam on Saturday. And Smith … oh god, Smith’s perfect for Sundays. Because Sunday’s meant for penance. Doing right and thinking good thoughts. Going to church and acting godly. But I can’t be good. I can’t possibly choose because they’re too gorgeous. So I don’t. Is that wrong? Or is seven my lucky number? Hey Readers – This story was my first reverse harem, and needless to say, it was LOADS of fun writing it. Our heroine is your sassy girl next door who embarks on a wild ride with SEVEN lucky men. As always, there’s a guaranteed HEA with no cheating and no cliffhangers. You’ll love it, I promise! Xoxo, Cassie

The Brothers Seven
Author: Aleksis Kivi
Publisher: Zeta Books
ISBN: 6066970585
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 466
Book Description
Seitsemän veljestä (The Brothers Seven), the 1870 Finnish novel by Aleksis Kivi (1834-1872), is one of the most (in)famously unknown classics of world literature—unknown not only because so few people in the world can read Finnish, but also because the novel is so incredibly difficult to translate, the Mount Everest of translating from Finnish. It is difficult to translate not only because it blends a saturation in Homer, Shakespeare, Dante, Cervantes, and the Bible with a brilliantly stylized form of local dialect, but because it is wild, grotesque, carnivalistic, and laugh-out-loud funny on every page. It has been translated 58 times into 34 languages—but somehow the translations always seem to fall short of their flamboyant original. Douglas Robinson’s new translation is a bold attempt to remedy that. He aims to make Kivi as rhythmic, as alliterative, as brash, as grotesque, and as funny in English as he is in Finnish. Since Kivi deliberately used an archaic Finnish, but used it playfully—and since Kivi was steeped in Shakespeare, to the point of memorizing whole plays—Robinson translates him into a playful Shakespearean register. As he notes in his Preface, this makes the translation a bit difficult to read—but the original is difficult for Finns to read as well, and the Finnish readers who love Kivi (and that is most of them) read him with pleasure despite the words they don’t know, because his prose is so intensely alive.
