The eNotated Hunting of the Snark by Lewis Carroll (eNotated Classics) (594 Reviews)    Price verified 13 hours ago

Though most ebooks are simple conversions of paper books, "The eNotated Hunting of the Snark" is a completely new approach that takes advantage of ebook technology by providing comprehensive eNotations (electronic annotations), essays, and background information conveniently accessible through links and a active table of contents. Written by Pam Sowers, researcher, journalist, and long-time "Snark" fan, this background biographical, historical, and interpretive information reveals a "Hunting of the Snark" not visible to most readers. Sowers notes in her introduction that Snark is "a poem that 'describes with infinite humour the impossible journey of an improbable crew to find an inconceivable creature,'" a kind of "'Odyssey of the Nonsensical'" that "unlike the 'Alice' books, is not intended only for children", adding that "through the decades, 'the poem has continued to attract a small cult following of adult readers.'" Comparing Snark to "Through the Looking Glass," Sowers say ...

Poésies (French Edition) by Isidore Lucien Ducasse (Comte De Lautréamont) (Bibebook) (7 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

Voici la seconde oeuvre de Lautréamont, qui connu aussi peu de succès que la première de son vivant, jusqu'à ce que cet auteur soit redécouvert par les surréalistes et en particulier André Breton. L'épigraphe placée en tête du premier fascicule présente l'oeuvre comme une palinodie: «Je remplace la mélancolie par le courage, le doute par la certitude, le désespoir par l'espoir, la méchanceté par le bien, les plaintes par le devoir, le scepticisme par la foi, les sophismes par la froideur du calme et l'orgueil par la modestie.» Cette profession de foi mérite cependant d'être considérée avec prudence dans la mesure où le recueil utilise largement l'ironie. Chaque énoncé se trouve ainsi placé sous le régime du doute et pourvu d'un sens toujours éventuellement réversible. Le titre même de l'ouvrage semble une sorte d'«antititre» puisque la dédicace parodique qui apparaît sur la deuxième page présente l'?uvre comme constituée de «prosaïques morceaux». ...

La maîtresse (French Edition) by Jules Renard (Bibebook) (4 Reviews)    Price verified 14 hours ago

Jules Renard naît en Mayenne : son père y travaillait à ce moment-là à la construction du chemin de fer. Il a vécu tout ce qu'il a écrit. Dans ses ?uvres ou son Journal, il écrit tout ce qu'il vit, pour ne pas le dire ni le laisser paraître. Il écrit aussi pour briller et ne plus douter de lui-même, car ses parents ne l'ont guère aimé. Et bientôt, à ses inquiétudes s'en joint une autre : la peur de trahir la vérité par l'emploi des mauvais mots ou de trop de mots. Pendant une grande partie de sa vie, une question l'obsède : faut-il préférer l'exactitude d'une phrase ou la beauté poétique d'une image ? Extrait : Voici. Je veux bien vous aimer, quelque temps, longtemps, oui, toujours. Je consens à devenir votre maîtresse, une excellente maîtresse, mais je ne serai pas heureuse si je ne suis pas tranquille. Promettez-moi de m'aimer paisiblement, ou rompons tout de suite. Je me connais : à la première dispute, vous me sembleriez étranger. Il y va de ma santé. ...

D'autres disent qu'il est proche parent du génie.

Les Chants de Maldoror sont un ouvrage en prose, composé de six parties (« chants ») et publié en 1869 par Isidore Ducasse sous le pseudonyme de Comte de Lautréamont. Le livre ne raconte pas une histoire unique et cohérente, mais est constitué d'une suite d'épisodes dont le fil conducteur est la présence de Maldoror, personnage maléfique doué de pouvoirs surnaturels. Le texte est fondé sur une esthétique de la rupture : chaque strophe peut être lue comme un fragment poétique autonome et aucun fil linéaire, qu'il soit narratif, descriptif ou discursif, n'est suivi bien longtemps. Il s'agit d'un brûlot, «politiquement incorrect», qui ne fut pas du goût des bien-pensants de l'époque. Nourri de violences, d'idées morbides et de délire - peste, pus et poux... - ce texte énigmatique et fascinant, ce texte de la démesure donne le vertige, et parfois un peu la nausée...

He'll run the Red Widow Bourbon factory -- a business that's been in his family for generations -- build a beautiful home, marry a nice country girl, and start a family. Then he meets Grace Baker, and all his plans go out the window. She's the last woman he should want: a big-city lawyer who's accepted a case against his best friend.
