Book Description
Charles Augustus Fenton, the loved and cherished child of Charles Senior and Elizabeth, is born at Fenton Manor into wealth and assured future prosperity. His protected and indulged childhood, apart from his having to endure a frightening bout of typhoid fever, could only be described as charmed. At home, the servants of Fenton Manor are deferential towards their employers, but in the outside world, the Chartists are rebelling against the vast inequities of the early Victorian class system. Charles' interest in girls flares and he undergoes a torrid sexual awakening, with huge repercussions. A shocking event interrupts the calm, the consequences of which not even Charles' powerful and protective father can halt. Whiting has crafted an intriguing and, at times, brutal tale for young adult readers.

Hemingway: The Writer's Art of Self-Defense
Author: Jackson J. Benson
Publisher: U of Minnesota Press
ISBN: 1452910200
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
Hemingway was first published in 1970. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. In a close critical analysis of five of Ernest Hemingway's novels and a number of his most important short stories, Professor Benson provides a fascinating new view of his work. The novels discussed are The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Across the River and into the Trees,and the Old Man and the Sea. Hemingway's art of self-defense, which Professor Benson refers to in his subtitle, was, as he demonstrates in his perceptive criticism, the writer's use of style and technique to attack the sentimentalities which were Hemingway's own weakness. Emotion was central to the task which Hemingway defined for himself, Professor Benson explains, and a critical appraisal of his work must, therefore, focus particularly on the ways in which he dealt with and expressed emotion.
