We have more books available by this author!. 136 pp. "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is the first novel of Irish writer James Joyce. A Künstlerroman in a modernist style it traces the intellectual and religio-philosophical awakening of young Stephen Dedalus a fictional alter ego of Joyce and an allusion to Daedalus the consummate craftsman of Greek mythology. Stephen questions and rebels against the Catholic and Irish conventions under which he has grown culminating in his self-exile from Ireland to Europe. The work uses techniques that Joyce developed more fully in Ulysses 1922 and Finnegans Wake 1939.A Portrait began life in 1903 as Stephen Heroâa projected 63-chapter autobiographical novel in a realistic style. After 25 chapters Joyce abandoned Stephen Hero in 1907 and set to reworking its themes and protagonist into a condensed five-chapter novel dispensing with strict realism and making extensive use of free indirect speech that allows the reader to peer into Stephen's developing consciousness. American modernist poet Ezra Pound had the novel serialised in the English literary magazine The Egoist in 1914 and 1915 and published as a book in 1916 by B. W. Huebsch of New York. The publication of A Portrait and the short story collection Dubliners 1914 earned Joyce a place at the forefront of literary modernism. Black & White Classics paperback books

We have more books available by this author!. viii 454 pp. "Moving away from the dark tone of her more recent masterpieces Joyce Carol Oates turns the tale of a family struggling to cope with its fall from grace into a deeply moving and unforgettable account of the vigor of hope and the power of love to prevail over suffering. The Mulvaneys of High Point Farm in Mt. Ephraim New York are a large and fortunate clan blessed with good looks abundant charisma and boundless promise. But over the twenty-five year span of this ambitious novel the Mulvaneys will slide almost imperceptibly at first from the pinnacle of happiness transformed by the vagaries of fate into a scattered collection of lost and lonely souls. It is the youngest son Judd now an adult who attempts to piece together the fragments of the Mulvaneys' former glory seeking to uncover and understand the secret violation that occasioned the family's tragic downfall. Each of the Mulvaneys endures some form of exile--physical or spiritual--but in the end they find a way to bridge the chasms that have opened up among them reuniting in the spirit of love and healing. Profoundly cathartic Oates' acclaimed novel unfolds as if in the darkness of the human spirit she has come upon a source of light at its core. Rarely has a writer made such a startling and inspiring statement about the value of hope and compassion. William Abrahams Books unknown books
198800574scPortland Oregan: Timber Press 1988. Royal octavo full-color illus. boards hardcover 124 pp. Near-Fine with small smudge to ffep in a Fine As New dust jacket. Illus. in b&w full-color. “This book about orchids and orchid growing begins with a history of the first intorudction to Western horticulture more than 250 years ago and describes the difficult days of learning how to grow them. The main body of the book is concerned with the principles of growing propagating and caring for orchids in temperate regions. Discussions of the environmental conditions found where orchids grow in the wild help to give enthusiasts a clearer understading of the cultural needs of the plants under cultivation. Many of the orchids described in this book can be grown with success in a conservatory or on a windowsill others need rather more specific conditions that can be provided by a plant case or greenhouse. A brief look is also taken at orchids suitable for growing in the garden including those that can be grown in containers for summer display.In all Joyce Stewart describes well over 500 species and hybrids of this immense family. The carefully chosen colour illustrations and delightful historical prints show something of the amazing range and diversity of the ORchidaceae.†Timber Press, [1988]. hardcover books
