The Nobel Prize: Ten Winners - A Short Story Collection

"Being acknowledged for what you do is always very welcome. When it comes to Oscar's, Emmy's, Pulitzer's and Nobel's it's also international news and for many, the pinnacle of their career. The Nobel Prize is much lauded and very difficult to secure. In this volume we list ten of its winners over the decades who were famed for their literature. The prize is given with an emphasis on its contribution to literature and its influence in the world and for the individual, more usually, for the body of work created. So, whilst none of the stories in this volume were winners in their own right, their authors most certainly were. They perfectly illustrate both the nature and mastery of the writing and the power and the purpose set within its storied prose. 1 - The Nobel Prize - Ten Winners - An Introduction 2 - The Father by Bjornstjerne Bjornson 3 - The Phantom Rickshaw by Rudyard Kipling 4 - The Victory by Rabindranath Tagore 5 - An Arch Rascal by Knut Hamsun 6 - The Daughter of Lilith by Anatole France 7 - Dhoya by W B Yeats 8 - Speed by Sinclair Lewis 9 - The Salvation of a Forsythe - Part 1 by John Galsworthy 10 - The Salvation of a Forsythe - Part 2 by John Galsworthy 11 - Son by Ivan Bunin 12 - Sicilian Limes by Luigi Pirandello"

No 5 Branch Line - The Engineer's Story

"Amelia Ann Blanford Edwards was born on 7th June 1831 in Islington, London. She was educated at home by her mother and showed early promise as a writer, publishing her first poem at the age of 7 and her first story at 12. Thereafter several popular periodicals published her poetry, stories and articles.In addition she also illustrated some of her own writings and painted scenes from books she had read. This talent was not supported by her parents, who saw an artist's life as scandalous. Undeterred Amelia took up composing and performing music until a bout of typhus caused throat damage. Other interests soon followed until, early in the 1850s, Amelia focused exclusively on writing. Her early novels were well received, and with 'Barbara's History' in 1864, a work revolving around bigamy, her reputation was established. Amelia's pen was also the purveyor of ghost stories for magazines and are still anthologized as classic tales to this day.In January 1851, Amelia became engaged, apparently to please her parents, but she quickly broke it off. In reality her emotional attachments were almost exclusively with women. From the early 1860s she lived with Ellen Drew Braysher, a widow 27 years her senior, until both women died in early 1892. During this relationship other women also entered and left her life. Her frequent travelling companion, Lucy Renshaw, accompanied her to Egypt in the winter of 1873 and there she found a life-changing interest in Egyptology. Aware of increasing threats from tourism and modern development she became an advocate for their research and preservation. To advance the work Amelia largely abandoned much of her writing in favour of Egyptology and even took on strenuous lecture tours to raise funds.After catching influenza, Amelia Edwards, 'the Godmother of Egyptology' died on 15th April 1892 at Weston-super-Mare. She was 60. In this Italian set story two Englishmen fall into problems over their love for a coquettish Genoese girl. When she turns both their lives upside down horrendous consequences inevitably follow."

The Poetry of Weddings

"‘From this day forward…’ are words intoned in every conventional marriage ceremony as two people interweave their lives with all its plans, its hopes and dreams on a love-strewn path to the future, even eternity. From here life has its own way of changing, modifying and disrupting the true course of married love for many of us. In this volume of fifty poems our classic poets delve with storied verse into every facet of this institution. From the good, the bad and even the ugly, from the Wedding day to the realisation that divorce and separation maybe the better path. Between these two frontiers other avenues and facets are explored by the pens of many including Shakespeare, Khalil Gibran, Emily Dickinson and the Rossetti’s."

Poems for Honeymooners

"Honeymoons are a relatively modern concept in the western world, dating from the 19th Century and have since become a multi-billion dollar industry turning the beginning of wedded bliss into a smorgsboard of 'must have this' and 'must do that'. However, celebrating a marriage is something we perhaps all feel should be a more intimate occasion. After all this part of the journey is possibly unique as well as universal and timeless. Sex, possibly for the first time, is now an expression of the wedded state, cementing and reframing the relationship as a new couple. Within the lines of this volume are perfect poems for those on such a journey, whether it a romantic holiday setting or relaxed at home as our classic poets revel in the sensual, the sexy and above all the love for that very special chosen person in our lives. Our verse includes those from Shakespeare, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Rossetti, W B Yeats, Khalil Gibran, Ella Wheeler Wilcox and many more.01 - Poetry for Honeymooners - An Introduction02 - He Wishes For the Cloths of Heaven by W B Yeats03 - A Red, Red Rose by Robert Burns04 - Now Sleeps the Crimson Petal from The Princess by Alfred Lord Tennyson05 - I Love You by Ella Wheeler Wilcox06 - Wild Nights, Wild Nights by Emily Dickinson07 - Love and Sleep by Algernon Charles Swinburne08 - Nuptial Sleep by Dante Gabriel Rossetti09 - The Sunne Rising by John Donne10 - Song of the Flower by Khalil Gibran11 - My Delight and Your Delight by Robert Seymour Bridges12 - The Passionate Shepherd to His Love by Christopher Marlowe13 - The Willing Mistress by Aphra Behn14 - A Nuptial Verse to Mistress Elizabeth Lee, Now Lady Tracy by Robert Herrick15 - The Bride by Laurence Hope aka Violet Nicholson02 - Love's Philosophy by Percy Bysshe Shelley17 - Her Breast is Fit For Pearls by Emily Dickinson18 - Invitation to Love by Paul Laurence Dunbar19 - The Flea by John Donne20 - To Celia by Ben Jonson21 - She Lay Naked All in Bed - Anonymous22 - Delight in Disorder by Robert Herrick23 - Amores - Book I Elegy V - Corinna in an Afternoon by Ovid24 - For the Courtesan Ch'ing Lin Wu Zao25 - The Kiss by Charlotte Dacre26 - That Kiss By Daniel Sheehan27 - The First Kiss Of Love by Lord Byron28 - First Love by John Clare29 - Longing by Matthew Arnold30 - Give All To Love by Ralph Waldo Emerson31 - Sonnet IV - Lovesight by Dante Gabriel Rossetti32 - Love is Enough by William Morris33 - Lips and Eyes by Thomas Carew34 - She Walks in Beauty by Lord Byron35 - When I Too Long Have Looked Upon Your Face by Edna St Vincent Millay36 - Go Lovely Rose by Edmund Waller37 - Sonnet 18 - Shall I Compare Thee to a Summers Day by William Shakespeare38 - Beauty That is Never Old by James Weldon Johnson39 - Bright Star by John Keats40 - Falling Stars by Rainer Maria Rilke41 - A Bridal Song by John Ford42 - Wedded by Isaac Rosenberg43 - To a Husband by Anne Kingsmill Finch44 - On Marriage by Khalil Gibran45 - I Am Not Yours by Sara Teasdale46 - Unending Love by Tagore47 - Fidelity by D H Lawrence48 - June, a Tale by William Cowper49 - The Owl and the Pussycat by Edward Lear50 - An Extract of the Wife's Will by Charlotte Bronte51 - How Do I Love Thee by Elizabeth Barrett Browning52 - Terminus by Edith Wharton53 - The Good Morrow by John Donne54 - If Thou Must Love Me Let It Be For Nought by Elizabeth Barrett Browning"

The Poetry of Dreams

"'Perchance to dream' is an offer that most of us would accept in the blink of an eye. That mysterious 'other world' where the day's reality is processed by our subconscious, really is a mystery, even to the experts and self-help books who decipher our beguiling imaginings with all sorts of reasonings. Perhaps the better truth is that most of us don't remember much about our dreams, unlike its near neighbour the nightmare! Day-dreams too fall into a fantasy imagining where we try to re-route the natural course of events as we move from one emotion to another.Our unconscious dreams seem essential for our mental and emotional well-being and some believe they provide solutions, answers and prophesize important events. In the conscious world we use the word to describe our goals, desires and wishes which reveal much about who we are and our chosen path for life. Whatever their significance may or may not be, they are universal and a subject on which our poets have much to say.With such a rich seam to mine, our poets from Sarojini Naidu to Lewis Carroll, Edna St Vincent Millay to Shakespeare by way of Antonio Machado and Longfellow and a host of others provide a pillowful of poems that will set you dreaming.01 - The Poetry of Dreams - An Introduction02 - He Wishes For the Cloths of Heaven by W B Yeats03 - A Dream Within a Dream by Edgar Allen Poe04 - The Dream by John Donne05 - The Dream by Amy Levy06 - Ay, Workman, Make Me A Dream by Stephen Crane07 - House of Dreams by Sara Teasdale08 - My Darling Dear, My Daisy Flower by John Skelton09 - Roses of a Dream by Damon Runyon10 - A Ballad of Dreamland by Algernon Charles Swinburne11 - Longing by Matthew Arnold12 - The Dream by Alexander Pushkin13 - A Dream by Edgar Allen Poe14 - The Dream by Aphra Behn15 - Love by Rupert Brooke16 - This Faulted Dream by Daniel Sheehan17 - Sonnet 87 - Farewell!

The Poetry of W B Yeats

"William Butler Yeats was born in Sandymount in County Dublin, Ireland on 13th June 1865.His early years moved between Ireland and England. By his mid-teens he was writing but those works were described as 'entirely Un-Irish'. With Ernest Rhys he founded the Rhymers Club. Based at Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese in Fleet Street it's best described as a drinking club for performing poets. Yeats later cited them as 'The Tragic Generation'. By now Yeats was writing and publishing poetry and stories that were profoundly based in Irish folklore. Yeats is perhaps best described as Ireland's national poet in addition to being one of the major twentieth-century literary figures of the English tongue. He represents the 'Romantic poet of modernism,' with an extraordinary style created from the outward emphasis on the expression of emotions and the extensive use of symbolism, imagery and allusions. In 1923 his fame was brought to an even wider audience when he received the Nobel Prize in Literature. His personal life was driven by his many relationships in love and by his great interest in oriental mysticism and occultism. Yeats also wrote prose and drama and, as an ardent Nationalist, established himself as a spokesman of the Irish cause and served as an Irish senator for two terms. W B Yeats died at the Hôtel Idéal Séjour, in Menton, France, on 28th January 1939. He was 73.In modern times his contribution to literary modernism and to Irish nationalism remains incontestable. His sumptuous poetry elegantly envelopes the reader in a world very few can articulate but all know well.

The Top Ten - The Irish

"Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author's brain, their soul and heart. A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere.In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted 'Top Tens' across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions - Why that story? Why that author? The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme. Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature.Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made. If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something.The Irish Short Story tradition is packed with literary leviathans who take the raw ingredients of the land, it's people and their own talents to create quite dazzling narratives in these perfectly pitched short stories. Genius has many names.01 - The Top 10 - The Irish - An Introduction02 - The Dead by James Joyce03 - The Knitted Collar by Mary Anne Hoare04 - Strange Event in the Life of Schalken the Painter by Sheridan Le Fanu05 - The Last of Squire Ennismore by Charlotte Riddell06 - An Irish Problem by Somerville and Ross07 - All Souls Eve by Dora Sigerson Shorter13 - The Burial of the Rats by Bram Stoker09 - A Rich Woman by Katharine Tynan10 - The Selfish Giant by Oscar Wilde11 - Dhoya by W B Yeats"

Fifty Shades of Ireland

"The beautiful island of Ireland has endured a history that is pock-marked with struggle and oppression, with religious division and self-serving administrations. It has sacrificed its youth in wars, its generations in famines and emigration but it has never forsaken its calling that Ireland is a beacon of dignity, humanity and a home for words and literature of every description.Across the centuries, whatever its joys or torments, its poets have assembled verse that speaks from its soul. These fifty poems can never be a complete package of Ireland. They give glimpses, aspects, insights and thoughtful views and opinions of a nation that is proud, free and gloried with a history that few others can carry. That few others possess. From Katharine Tynan, Francis Ledwidge, Isabella Valancy Crawford and Thomas Moore to James Joyce, Oscar Wilde and W B Yeats this roll-call of wordsmiths speaks of Ireland and for Ireland."
