Summary

In the aftermath of war, they searched for meaning—in love, in travel, and in themselves.
Published in 1926, The Sun Also Rises is Ernest Hemingway's groundbreaking debut novel and a defining work of the Lost Generation. Set in Paris and Spain during the 1920s, it follows Jake Barnes, an American expatriate, and his circle of friends as they navigate love, jealousy, and disillusionment in the shadow of World War I.

From Parisian cafés to the thrill of Pamplona's bullfights, Hemingway's lean, understated prose captures both the glamour and the aimlessness of an era. Beneath the surface lies a poignant meditation on masculinity, identity, and the struggle to find purpose in a fractured world.

"Hemingway's best novel, filled with poignant beauty and understated power."
– The New York Times

"A landmark of modernist literature—spare, profound, and unforgettable."
– The Guardian

    Ovid’s Metamorphoses is a monumental narrative poem that chronicles the history of the world from creation to the deification of Julius Caesar, all through the lens of transformation. Composed of over 250 myths, the poem weaves together tales of gods, heroes, and mortals whose lives are changed—often through love, punishment, or fate—by physical metamorphosis. From Daphne turning into a laurel tree to escape Apollo, to Narcissus falling in love with his own reflection, Ovid’s elegant and often playful storytelling blends tragedy, humor, and wonder. His poetic vision explores themes of power, desire, identity, and the impermanence of life. Rich in imagery and emotional depth, Metamorphoses has profoundly influenced Western literature, art, and mythology, offering a vivid portrait of both divine caprice and human vulnerability.

    When roughly classed, the myths and legends generally show two points of departure for migrations of the human race, as these were rendered in the stellar and solar mythology. One is from the summit of the celestial mount, the other from the hollow underworld beneath the mount or inside the earth. The races that descended from the mount were people of the pole whose starting-point in reckoning time was from one or other station of the pole-star, determinable by its type, whether as the tree, the rock, or other image of a first point of departure. Those who ascended from the nether-world were of the solar race who came into existence with the sun as it is represented in the legendary lore… –from “The Exodus from Egypt and the Desert of Amenta” It goes unappreciated by modern Egyptologists, but it is embraced by those who savor the concept of a “hidden history” of humanity, and those who approach all human knowledge from the perspective of the esoteric. Gerard Massey’s massive Ancient Egypt: The Light of the World–first published in 1907 and the crowning achievement of the self-taught scholar–redefines the roots of Christianity via Egypt, proposing that Egyptian mythology was the basis for Jewish and Christian beliefs
