Sinopse

In 'The Complete Short Stories of Arnold Bennett', readers are immersed in a collection of tales that reflect Bennett's keen observation of human nature and his unwavering commitment to realism. With a precise and detailed writing style, Bennett captures the everyday lives of ordinary people in a way that is both insightful and thought-provoking. The stories offer a glimpse into the class divisions and social dynamics of early 20th-century England, making them a valuable resource for scholars of British literature. Bennett's narrative skill and attention to detail make these stories a compelling read for those interested in character-driven fiction with a focus on realism. Arnold Bennett, a prolific writer and journalist, drew on his own experiences growing up in the Staffordshire Potteries to inform his work. His keen interest in social issues and his ability to portray the complexities of human relationships are evident throughout his short stories. Bennett's work is a reflection of his deep understanding of the human condition and his commitment to presenting life as it truly is. I highly recommend 'The Complete Short Stories of Arnold Bennett' to readers who appreciate finely crafted tales that offer insight into the human experience. This collection showcases Bennett's talent as a storyteller and serves as a valuable contribution to the genre of realistic fiction.

    From comedian and actor Sebastian Maniscalco—star of the film About My Father with Robert DeNiro—an inspiring, honest, uproarious collection of essays tracing his career from playing boxing rings and bowling alleys to reaching the pinnacles of comedy success.At twenty-four, Sebastian Maniscalco arrived in LA with a suitcase and saved up minimum wages. He knew no one and nothing about standup comedy, but he was determined to go for it anyway.Two decades later, he’s on the Forbes’ list of highest earning comedians, selling out arenas, and starring in numerous hit comedy specials including Why Would You Do That? and Is It Me?.Stay Hungry tells the story of the twenty years in between. On the way from clueless rube to standup superstar, Seb was booed off stages; survived on tips and stolen food; got advice from mentors Andrew Dice Clay, Vince Vaughn, Tony Danza, and Jerry Seinfeld; fell in love; and stayed true to his Italian-immigrant roots. The one code that always kept him going: stay hungry, keep focused, never give up, and one day, you’ll make it.

    After the end of Civil War in 1865, more than four million slaves were set free. There were several efforts to record the remembrances of the living former slaves. The Federal Writers' Project was one such project by the United States federal government to support writers during the Great Depression by asking them to interview and record the myriad stories and experiences of slavery of former slaves. The resulting collection preserved hundreds of life stories from 17 US states that would otherwise have been lost in din of modernity and America's eagerness to deliberately forget the blot on its recent past. This edition brings to you the complete collection of first hand experiences and voices from the past that makes one question whether is it safe to forget or keep the memories alive for bigger battles ahead. A must read for everyone who is interested in US History, race relations and authentic historical research.
