As We Are and As We May Be
Author: Walter Besant
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 195
Book Description
Walter Besant's 'As We Are and As We May Be' is a thought-provoking exploration of the social and moral issues of the late 19th century. Through a series of essays, Besant delves into the complexities of human nature, addressing topics such as poverty, education, and the role of women in society. The book is written in a clear and engaging style, making it accessible to a wide audience. Besant's work reflects the literary context of the time, as he was a prominent social reformer and writer, known for his interest in addressing the social inequalities of his era. Walter Besant was a pioneering figure in the late Victorian era, known for his progressive views on social issues. His background as a novelist and social reformer led him to write 'As We Are and As We May Be', a book that continues to be relevant in today's society. Besant's insightful analysis of the human condition makes this book a valuable read for anyone interested in social justice and ethical philosophy. I highly recommend 'As We Are and As We May Be' to readers who are interested in exploring the intersections of literature, social reform, and morality. Besant's work remains a powerful testament to the enduring impact of thoughtful analysis and social critique.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 498
Book Description
Winner of the Women’s Prize and featured on Elin Hilderbrand’s New York Times ballot for Best Books of the Century Harold Silver has spent a lifetime watching his younger brother, George, a taller, smarter, and more successful high-flying TV executive, acquire a covetable wife, two kids, and a beautiful home in the suburbs of New York City. But Harry, a historian and Nixon scholar, also knows George has a murderous temper, and when George loses control the result is an act of violence so shocking that both brothers are hurled into entirely new lives in which they both must seek absolution. Harry finds himself suddenly playing parent to his brother’s two adolescent children, tumbling down the rabbit hole of Internet sex, dealing with aging parents who move through time like travelers on a fantastic voyage. As Harry builds a twenty-first-century family created by choice rather than biology, we become all the more aware of the ways in which our history, both personal and political, can become our destiny and either compel us to repeat our errors or be the catalyst for change. May We Be Forgiven is an unnerving, funny tale of unexpected intimacies and of how one deeply fractured family might begin to put itself back together.

What We See When We Read
Author: Peter Mendelsund
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0804171645
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
A gorgeously unique, fully illustrated exploration into the phenomenology of reading—how we visualize images from reading works of literature, from one of our very best book jacket designers, himself a passionate reader. “A playful, illustrated treatise on how words give rise to mental images.” —The New York Times What do we see when we read? Did Tolstoy really describe Anna Karenina? Did Melville ever really tell us what, exactly, Ishmael looked like? The collection of fragmented images on a page—a graceful ear there, a stray curl, a hat positioned just so—and other clues and signifiers helps us to create an image of a character. But in fact our sense that we know a character intimately has little to do with our ability to concretely picture our beloved—or reviled—literary figures. In this remarkable work of nonfiction, Knopf's Associate Art Director Peter Mendelsund combines his profession, as an award-winning designer; his first career, as a classically trained pianist; and his first love, literature—he considers himself first and foremost as a reader—into what is sure to be one of the most provocative and unusual investigations into how we understand the act of reading.
