The Plumed Serpent

D. H. Lawrence

Beschreibung

The Plumed Serpent D. H. Lawrence - Lawrence wrote The Plumed Serpent between 1923 to 1924 a time when he was in ill health, living in Mexico and becoming dependent on his wife Frieda.The plot revolves around a movement to replace the Christian God with the old pre-conquest gods, such as Quetzalcoatl, the plumed serpent of the title. Kate Leslie, an Irish woman, gets caught up in the movement and marries one of the leaders but to the very end of the novel is ambivalent towards the aims of the movement. Lawrence uses the story to propound his own views about religion and the need for woman to sublimate herself before man and the need for a new political order. This all seems deliciously old-fashioned and misplaced now but we forgive Lawrence because of the beauty of his writing and his ability to get beneath the surface of the country he describes.

Discount Shopping Express

KnowIt Express, Shelly Ross

Get on the Express for Discount Shopping
Know How to Find Discounts, Get Coupons, and Save Money Shopping Online and Offline
Want to save money while shopping? Of course you do!
Why? Because nobody likes to find their wallet or purse flat-out empty from all the joy or necessity of shopping or suffer the consequences of endlessly swiping the plastic to the max on whatever they can get their hands on, then waiting for the wrath of the credit card bill to drop on their doorstep only to be filled with buyer's remorse and now swimming in debt and hanging on the mercy of creditors.
Finding bargains and deals may seem obvious - head to Google and click "Search", or go through the stack of mail and newspapers, hoping to grab some coupons - but there is far more to the process than people realize.
Also, still think getting the best bang for your buck is exclusive at the big major retailers? Think again! That's the perception they create for you to shop there in the first place. When stuff is perceived to be on sale, you just have to buy it, right? But are they really on sale? Because there are other secret underground mom-and-pop-like shops where less people know about that offer - and there are better outrageous deals.
In order to save money shopping, you need to do what others don't do and look where others don't look...because whenever there is word of a gold mine, it will be over before anybody else has the chance to pick up a shovel.
You need to approach discount shopping and bargain hunting from a different angle, like pro shoppers do.
When you take the Discount Shopping Express, your destination includes:
How to find discounts online and offline with advanced shopping strategies How to get coupons the way nobody else is doing and very few know about How to determine the best place to buy whatever you're looking for How to save money shopping like savvy shoppers do, with insider shopping tips How to handle impulsive, compulsive shopaholic behavior and break the habit Personalized hands-on exercises and applications to put everything into action on discount shopping And much more
Start saving and sniffing out bargains now. Hack the shopping process to always get the best deal!
