The Complete Works of Joel Chandler Harris. Illustrated

Pages : 5068
Book Description
Joel Chandler Harris was an American journalist, fiction writer, and folklorist best known for his collection of Uncle Remus stories. Harris wrote novels, narrative histories, translations of French folklore, children's literature, and collections of stories depicting rural life in Georgia. As fiction writer and folklorist, he wrote many 'Brer Rabbit' stories from the African-American oral tradition. He realized the literary value of the stories he had heard from the slaves of Turnwold Plantation. Harris set out to record the stories and insisted that they be verified by two independent sources before he would publish them. The stories, mostly collected directly from the African-American oral storytelling tradition, were revolutionary in their use of dialect, animal personages, and serialized landscapes. 1. The Uncle Remus Books — Uncle Remus: His Songs and His Sayings (1881) — Nights with Uncle Remus (1883) — Uncle Remus and His Friends (1892) — The Tar-Baby and Other Rhymes of Uncle Remus (1904) — Told by Uncle Remus (1905) — Uncle Remus and Brer Rabbit (1907) — Uncle Remus and the Little Boy (1910) — Uncle Remus Returns (1918) — Seven Tales of Uncle Remus (1948) 2.

Edit Point
Author: Rex Thomas
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 145205441X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
A passionate intense yearning love is experienced by almost everyone at sometime in their life. Occasionally this love is returned but more often it is rejected, bringing disillusionment, pain, anger and a torment which never really goes away. Recently psychologists have found that most of us think ourselves as more desirable than others actually see us and so people we regard as of equal desirability may not see it in the same way, leading to the modern term 'delusional romantic attachment.' Edit Point tells the story of a roller coaster relationship with its euphoria and tragedies detailing the secondment of an award winning television producer sent to investigate the history of an ancient order of monks who seemed to have taken more interest in early science discoveries than their religion. Shortly after starting the project Tony Des Forges becomes involved in several interweaving relationships including fun loving Karen a young girl seeking affection and Linda a married woman that he can never put of his mind. Edit Point is a book for all seasons whether for snuggling up with in bed, lazing on a hot sandy beach, chilling out at the weekend or as a travelling companion on the way to work on the bus or train. For the right person Edit Point may be a thoughtful gift. Review When I was given Edit Point it came with a warning: "You'll hate it'.That warning was totally misplaced, I loved it. This was the most intriguing story I have read. None of the characters involved behave as you would expect in a novel,the 'hero' is a refreshingly real man with recognisable human responses to temptation and struggles to do the right thing. Can't wait for the second book Myryll Lacy author/critic
