Beschreibung

In "The Hills and the Vale," Richard Jefferies masterfully intertwines nature writing with a rich tapestry of poetic reflection. Set against the pastoral backdrop of the English countryside, this work captures the essence of rural life, exploring the interaction between humans and the natural world. Jefferies employs a lyrical prose style punctuated by vivid imagery and a profound reverence for the landscapes he describes. Rooted in the Romantic tradition, this collection reflects the period's burgeoning interest in the sublime beauty of the English countryside, offering readers a contemplative exploration of the hills, valleys, and the accompanying cycle of life. Richard Jefferies, a notable figure in Victorian literature, drew inspiration from his own experiences growing up in the idyllic Wiltshire countryside. His deep connection to nature and evocative writing style illuminate his keen observations of rural life, its struggles, and its beauty. The austerity of his surroundings often translates into profound philosophical insights, leading him to probe deeper into humanity's place within the natural order, making his work resonate with the zeitgeist of his time. This book is highly recommended for those who appreciate evocative nature writing and philosophical contemplation. Jefferies' reflections stimulate a timeless dialogue between the reader and nature, making "The Hills and the Vale" not just a descriptive landscape but a journey into the soul of the countryside itself.

    There is light in the sharing of our stories. 
    "I began to realise that maybe things didn’t have to be this way. That maybe something can be done to turn things around. That perhaps miracles are attainable when faith and hope are shaped into crowns on our tiny brains. There were voices in me urging me to step out of my comfort zone to make that change. And I remember having an inclination — to not repeat the mistakes my parents made. For that’s their way of showing me what I should not be doing. But I didn’t know where to start. I didn’t know what I had to do to turn things around. I was clueless. But I gathered small steps would lead me to big ones and I asked myself what was the worst choice I had ever made in my life at that point. To my surprise, it didn’t take me long to figure this one out at all. It came to me like lightning itself. Striking, clear, and loud — it was my thoughts. My very negative thoughts."

    A compendium of quotes and riffs by P.J. O'Rourke on subjects ranging from government to fishing to apps, to be published on what would have been his seventy-fifth birthday. 
     
     
     
    When The Penguin Dictionary of Modern Humorous Quotations was published in 1994, P. J. O'Rourke had more entries than any living writer. And he kept writing funny stuff for another twenty-eight years. Now, for the first time, the best material is collected in  one volume. Edited by Terry McDonell, The Funny Stuff is arranged in six sections, organized by subject in alphabetical order from Agriculture to Xenophobia. From his earliest days at the National Lampoon in the 1970s, through his classic reporting for Rolling Stone in the '80s and '90s to his post-Trump, pandemic, new media observations of recent years, P. J. produced incisive, amusing copy. Not only did P. J. write memorable one-liners, he also meticulously constructed riffs that are still being quoted years later. His prose has the electric verbal energy of Tom Wolfe or Hunter Thompson, but P. J. is more flat out funny. And through it all comes his clear-eyed take on politics, economics, human nature—and fun. The Funny Stuff is a book for P. J. fans to devour but also a book that will bring new audiences and stand as testament to one of the truly original American writers of the last fifty years.
