BOOK EXCERPT:

In 'The Complete Novels' of Charlotte, Anne, and Emily Brontë, readers are presented with a seminal collection that not only showcases the varied literary styles of the three sisters but also serves as a pivotal exploration of themes such as gender roles, morality, and the human struggle against societal constraints. Spanning Gothic romances to probing social commentaries, the anthology charts a significant trajectory in 19th-century literature, offering standouts such as the tempestuous landscapes of Wuthering Heights and the introspective journey of Jane Eyre. Each novel, rich in psychological depth and complexity, reflects the Brontë sisters' innovative approaches to narrative and character development, marking a departure from the convention of their time. The Brontë sisters emerged from a context of constrained female authorship to significantly impact English literature. Despite their relatively isolated upbringing on the Yorkshire moors, their works transcend their circumstances, aligning with and propelling forward the literary movements of their time, including Romanticism and Victorian realism. Collectively, their novels embody a defiant critique of the societal expectations and strictures placed upon women, while individually, each sister carves a distinct literary path that reflects her unique worldview and artistic sensibility. 'The Complete Novels' is an indispensable volume for those who seek to immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of Brontë literature. It not only offers a comprehensive exploration of the sisters' collective contribution to English literature but also provides a platform for readers to engage in a profound dialogue with the texts, uncovering layers of social commentary, moral inquiry, and emotional depth. This collection is a testament to the enduring power of the Brontë sisters' work, inviting readers to ponder the complexities of the human condition through the lens of three of the most influential female voices in literary history.

Ambrose Bierce The Devil S Dictionary Tales Memoirs Loa 219

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

A veteran of some of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War, Ambrose Bierce went on to become one of the darkest and most death haunted of American writers, the blackest of black humorists. This volume gathers the most celebrated and significant of Bierce's writings. In the Midst of Life (Tales of Soldiers and Civilians), his collection of short fiction about the Civil War, which includes the masterpieces "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" and "Chickamauga," is suffused with a fiercely ironic sense of the horror and randomness of war. Can Such Things Be? brings together "The Death of Halpin Frayser," "The Damned Thing," "The Moonlit Road," and other tales of terror that make Bierce the genre's most significant American practitioner between Poe and Lovecraft. The Devil's Dictionary, the brilliant lexicon of subversively cynical definitions on which Bierce worked for decades, displays to the full his corrosive wit. In Bits of Autobiography, the series of memoirs that includes the memorable "What I Saw of Shiloh," he recreates his experiences in the war and its aftermath. The volume is rounded out with a selection of his best uncollected stories. Acclaimed Bierce scholar S. T. Joshi provides detailed notes and a newly researched chronology of Bierce's life and mysterious disappearance.

Ring Lardner Stories Other Writings Loa 244

BOOK EXCERPT:

At the height of the Jazz Age, Ring Lardner was America’s most beloved humorist, equally admired by a popular audience and by literary friends like F. Scott Fitzgerald and Edmund Wilson. A sports writer who became a sensation with his comic baseball bestseller, You Know Me Al, Lardner had a rare gift for inspired nonsense and an ear attuned to the rhythms and hilarious oddities of American speech. He was also a sharp and dispassionate observer of the American scene. His best stories—among them such masterpieces as “Haircut,” “The Golden Honeymoon,” “A Caddy’s Diary,” and “The Love Nest”—cast a devastating eye on the hypocrisies, prejudices, and petty scheming of everyday life. In this Library of America edition, editor Ian Frazier surveys the whole sweep of Lardner’s talents, offering contemporary readers his finest stories, the full texts of You Know Me Al, The Big Town, and the long out-of-print The Real Dope, and a generous sampling of his humor pieces, sports reporting, song lyrics, and surrealist playlets.
