Synopsis

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's "Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship & Wilhelm Meister's Journeyman Years" encapsulates the evolution of the bildungsroman genre, reflecting the formative journey of young Wilhelm as he navigates the complexities of life, art, and societal expectations in 18th-century Germany. This dual narrative employs a lyrical yet pragmatic style, interspersed with dialogues that showcase Goethe's masterful command of character development and thematic depth. The text cannot be separated from its Enlightenment context, as it grapples with the ideals of individualism, artistic identity, and the transition from youth to maturity within a rapidly evolving cultural milieu. Goethe, a towering figure of German literature, observed the societal changes spurred by the Enlightenment, shaping his narrative around personal and existential explorations. His own diverse experiences in law, art, and politics inform Wilhelm's quest, representing not just a fictional character but a reflection of Goethe's own philosophical introspections and artistic ambitions. The interplay between the protagonist'Äôs artistic aspirations and the contrasting pressures of societal conformity speaks volumes about the author'Äôs own dilemmas. Readers seeking a profound exploration of personal growth and societal critique will find "Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship & Wilhelm Meister's Journeyman Years" an invaluable literary companion. Goethe'Äôs keen insights into the human experience resonate across generations, making this text essential for those interested in the intersection of art, life, and the quest for self-awareness.

    The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.

    Stolen kisses and secret reunions lead to a passion that civil war cannot sever in this glorious historical romance from the bestselling author of Caress.   Beautiful, proud Audra Brennan feels like a stranger in a foreign land when she comes north from Louisiana to study music. But when she savors her first forbidden taste of desire in the arms of handsome lawyer Lee Jeffreys, his caresses spark a flame within her that burns away the differences between rebel and Yankee, all objections silenced by the fierce beating of two wild hearts falling impetuously, impossibly in love.   Suddenly cannon fire shatters the country. Principled, impassioned, and committed to a nation united, Lee answers the call to fight against the Confederacy, while Audra hurries home to a plantation shadowed by the darkening cloud of war. But in the most terrible of circumstances, can either afford to surrender their heart?   “Power, passion, tragedy and triumph are Rosanne Bittner’s hallmarks. Again and again, she brings readers to tears.” —RT Book Reviews
