News How much newness does any news have? What news-value do the non-new things carry? There are things, incidents and people that do not make news. They do not possess enough newness for the news-hungry world. These things and beings are useless for the manufacturers of news.
Among these manufacturers is a young sub-editor interning with a Marathi newspaper who looks at things that are mundane - no use for the news. Does he discover something in the mundane? Does he find anything more meaningful there than just making up news? This is The Story of Being Useless.
A writer writes or types. Where does his writing start and where does it end - and what is in between? What does he want to say and what does he want to hide? What lies beneath this fa ade of letters and words and sentences? What holds together the structure within? Why is this structure created in the first place? What about the writer who has written this novel or novella? Has he really created something novel or is it just a re-rendering of the old?
This is a story of a typist, well, a writer, who wrote 'The Story of Being Useless' and who is writing Three Contexts of a Writer.

Описание: Bestselling Amish novelist Linda Byler's three heartwarming Christmas romances--in one affordable volume Linda Byler is beloved for her skillful story telling and true-to-life descriptions of Amish food, faith, and culture. As an Amish woman herself, she can share details of Amish life that few can replicate. Here are three heartwarming novellas full of longing, struggle, confused feelings, and ultimately love. Little Amish Matchmaker Simon can't stop thinking about the pretty Amish teacher at the local one-room school. But he's ignored the sparks between them because he's so shy. So Simon's little brother, Isaac, takes matters into his own hands. Amish novelist Byler brings her tender humor and skillful observation of family relationships to this holiday story. The Christmas Visitor Ruth Miller's Amish neighbors help her to make the difficult transition from wife to widow. As Christmas approaches, Ruth knows that she can't afford gifts for her children. But then banana boxes full of food, treats for the children, and even money begin to appear on her front porch. Who is leaving her these generous gifts? And who is that handsome stranger who always seems to show up when she most needs help? Mary's Christmas Goodbye Mary Stoltzfus is thirty years old, splashed with freckles, and unmarried. In her Amish world, that qualifies her to be called an old maid. When she travels to Montana to teach, she arrives at a desolate station and meets Arthur Bontrager, who introduces her to Beaver Creek School, dirt roads, and the fancy shed where she would live. She has no idea the physical challenges she will face during Montana's cruel winter . . . nor the struggles her heart will encounter as she learns to open herself to the possibility of love.

This volume brings together three short novels by Catalan literature's great maverick and recluse, each depicting a brutal, abstract world where words are the only reality--shifting between the erudite, the archaic, and the vulgar. "Carrer Marsala," which won prizes from the City of Barcelona and the Generalitat de Catalunya--neither of which Bau bothered to accept--is a relentless monologue delivered by a paranoid hypochondriac obsessed with dental hygiene, sex, and his own squalid rooms in Barcelona. In "The Old Man," the narrator observes a strange building where a decrepit prisoner is ritually beaten by a policeman once a week. "The Warden" details the narrator's own captivity, and his relationship with the woman who keeps him prisoner. In Martha Tennent's haunting translation, reminiscent of a Mediterranean Beckett or Thomas Bernhard, Miquel Bau 's work is a pungent reminder of the ways the world fails its prophets and pariahs.
Elizabeth Bennet is furious when she discovers Mr. Darcy has removed, with Charles Bingley in tow, to London for Christmas, seeing in it a blatant attempt to undermine the relationship that had begun to flourish between Bingley and her sister. When the Gardiners invite Elizabeth and Jane to stay with them in Gracechurch Street over the festive season, she seizes on the opportunity to repair the damage Darcy has caused and reunite the lovers, little realising her own heart is in danger and from Darcy himself.
Fitzwilliam Darcy acted in the best interest of his friend in preventing an unequal match - or so he thought. Reacquainted with both Jane and Elizabeth Bennet, he is forced to acknowledge his first, hasty assessment of both sisters was utterly false. Can he salvage not only his friend's hopes of future happiness, but his own, before the year is out?
Mr Darcy's Christmas Carol
"Men's courses will foreshadow certain ends, to which, if persevered in, they must lead, but if the courses be departed from, the ends will change..." Charles Dickens
Fitzwilliam Darcy is in London, and resigns himself to the social whirl of Christmas with Charles and Caroline Bingley and without mention of any young ladies with the surname "Bennet". Alas, his subconscious has other plans and he finds himself, one evening, plagued by dreams. Awaking upset at the potential futures played out in his imagination, he determines he must undo his mistakes before it is too late.
Elizabeth Bennet is surprised to see both Mr Bingley and Mr Darcy appear back in Hertfordshire so soon after they left for London, but cannot deny her pleasure at seeing them again, firstly for Jane's sake, but more reluctantly for her own. For Mr Darcy is not the only person whose nightly dreams have revealed a future they might enjoy, if only they are brave enough to act in the present...
Midwinter in Meryton
Snow has separated one dear couple, but might it be the very thing to reunite another?
Elizabeth Bennet's Christmas is a quiet one, with heavy snowfall preventing anybody coming and going from Longbourn. She is puzzling over how to reunite her sister with Mr Bingley when Mr Darcy crosses her path, and offers to do the thing she cannot: to summon Mr Bingley back to Netherfield, and to Jane.
Fitzwilliam Darcy returned to Hertfordshire on a fleeting errand, never thinking he would find himself snowed in alone for Christmas. Surprised not to enjoy his involuntary isolation, he makes his way on foot to Longbourn, and finds in the Bennets the warmth and society he didn't know he needed.
Can a bitter Meryton winter warm his heart and lead to love?
Название: The Collected Supernatural and Weird Fiction of Mrs. Gaskell-Volume 1: Including Three Novellas `Lois the Witch, ` `The Grey Woman, ` and `The Poor Cl ISBN: 0857069772 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780857069771 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 33150.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: A two volume collection of one of the finest female authors of Gothic ghost stories Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell (or as she was known 'Mrs. Gaskell') was born as Elizabeth Stevenson in Chelsea, London in 1810. Gaskell was a prolific author, writing short stories, novels and non-fiction of social history as well as a notable biography of Charlotte Bronte. It would have been unusual had she not also written ghostly tales, because she lived at a time when chilling tales were highly popular. Indeed she was persuaded to do so by Charles Dickens, an enthusiast for the form who had also encouraged several other writers to make forays into the genre. Perhaps inevitably Gaskell's scary, gothic fiction appeared in Dickens' magazine 'Household Words, ' a showcase also for several of her contemporaries. Gaskell's stories not only 'ticked all the boxes' commercially, but her ability ensured that her stories, well regarded in her own time, have endured as among the best examples of Victorian supernatural fiction. Apart from her supernatural writings Mrs. Gaskell is especially remembered today for her novels, 'Cranford' and 'North and South.' Volume one of Mrs. Gaskells gothic chillers includes the novellas 'Lois the Witch, ' 'The Grey Woman, ' and 'The Poor Clare, ' two novelettes 'The Doom of the Griffiths, ' and 'The Crooked Branch' plus seven short stories and a poem. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket; our hardbacks are cloth bound and feature gold foil lettering on their spines and fabric head and tail bands
