Book Description
Farmers in other lands might only plant 20 seeds a minute, while here we have progressed to 300 in a second. Yet there is a kinship. We try to grow our crops, our livestock, and raise our families, against the odds of a changing Mother Nature, falling markets, and corrupted farm policies. Still, we all find something good along the way. The demise of the American Farmer and it's supporting rural communities may be the next travesty of the land, after the collapse of our Native American society. Similar forces seem to be at work. Yet who else better can see the sky at night, feel the air, hear the rain, or weather the drought or flood. What strips away a person's mask any more than a quiet empty space out in the open, that rages of nature's thunder. From the middle of the heartland, is where we might just best find the beyond. However endless the search might be. Dittrich wishes to take you there.

Dead Souls
Author: Nikolai Gogol
Publisher: Everyman's Library
ISBN: 1400043190
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 490
Book Description
Nikolai Gogol’s Dead Souls is the great comic masterpiece of Russian literature–a satirical and splendidly exaggerated epic of life in the benighted provinces. Gogol hoped to show the world “the untold riches of the Russian soul” in this 1842 novel, which he populated with a Dickensian swarm of characters: rogues and scoundrels, landowners and serfs, conniving petty officials–all of them both utterly lifelike and alarmingly larger than life. Setting everything in motion is the wily antihero, Chichikov, the trafficker in “dead souls”–deceased serfs who still represent profit to those clever enough to trade in them. This lively, idiomatic English version by the award-winning translators Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky makes accessible the full extent of the novel’s lyricism, sulphurous humor, and delight in human oddity and error.

Dead Souls
Author: Nikolay Gogol
Publisher: Penguin UK
ISBN: 0141906782
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 361
Book Description
Chichikov, a mysterious stranger, arrives in the provincial town of 'N', visiting a succession of landowners and making each a strange offer. He proposes to buy the names of dead serfs still registered on the census, saving their owners from paying tax on them, and to use these 'souls' as collateral to re-invent himself as a gentleman. In this ebullient masterpiece, Gogol created a grotesque gallery of human types, from the bear-like Sobakevich to the insubstantial fool Manilov, and, above all, the devilish con man Chichikov. Dead Souls, Russia's first major novel, is one of the most unusual works of nineteenth-century fiction and a devastating satire on social hypocrisy.

Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
Peace descends on the Ravenwood freehold, and Raze Anvrell trusts that as love lays open his life, the turmoil of his past will loosen its grip. But in the halls of Avanoe and catacombs of Ezar, political intrigues thicken. Deflection and secrets manipulate the truth, assassins whet their blades, and more than one ruler stakes a claim in the quest for power. A swallower of multiple souls, Sajem files his teeth and inks his eyes. Tentacles of madness slither deeper into the slaver’s afflicted mind. His raids grow brazen, tactics harsh, and conscience stripped bare. Alliances fracture and form, and no one is too old or young, too wealthy or beautiful to spare. As his father’s health fails, Raze accompanies his brother to Ezar to plead before the Empress for slavery’s end. When death strikes, he and those who stand in the way of ruthless ambition must battle for those they love, the principles they hold dear, and the world they desire. While heirs compete for the Ezari throne, slavers plot each other’s demise. The future of the Vales depends on the outcome. And if Raze wishes to save his family, his freehold, his chance at love, and his life, he must swallow one more soul.
