Prose Fancies

Richard Le Gallienne

Sinopse

In "Prose Fancies," Richard Le Gallienne presents a dazzling collection of essays that traverse the realms of philosophy, nature, and personal reflection. The literary style is characterized by its lyrical prose and a delicate blend of romanticism and modernism, echoing the grandeur of the Pre-Raphaelites while embracing a contemporary sensibility. Le Gallienne's keen observations of the world around him reveal a profound understanding of the human experience, often interspersing his musings with vivid imagery and emotive language. This work is emblematic of the late 19th-century literary landscape, where writers began to explore the intricacies of individual thought and sentiment in a rapidly changing society. Richard Le Gallienne, an English poet and essayist, was deeply influenced by the Symbolist movement and his early experiences in literature and art. His encounters with figures like Oscar Wilde and his interest in nature and spirituality shaped his voice, lending authenticity and depth to his reflections. The diverse inspirations behind his work, including a love for the natural world and an appreciation for the ephemeral beauty of life, resonate throughout "Prose Fancies," making it a personal and philosophical journey. This collection is a must-read for those who seek solace in the written word and an exploration of the more profound aspects of existence. Le Gallienne's gentle yet insightful prose invites readers to pause, reflect, and find beauty in the ordinary. Ideal for lovers of lyrical essays and contemplative literature, "Prose Fancies" enriches the reader's appreciation for both language and the transient nature of life.

Newbury Publishing

Loretta Lynn is a living legend. From walking around barefoot in clothing repurposed from flour sacks in rural Kentucky to becoming an icon with more awards than any other woman in country music, many may wonder just how Loretta Lynn paved this path for herself. While hard work, natural talent, and having certain people in her life surely contributed to her success, her story is so unique it seems as if it was written by fate.  
A mother of six and now a grandmother to dozens, Lynn never lost sight of her values or what drove her. She had a calling to relay what was real and a desire to create a secure life for her family. She believes in horoscopes and is proudly an Aries; with her ambition and gifts, she could not be stopped. While Lynn is hesitant to call herself a feminist, her bravery and perseverance opened doors for many more women in country music. She also challenged stereotypes associated with the genre through living her beliefs about tolerance, honesty, and fairness. 
This biography will explore the meaning and process behind some of her music and how the people and circumstances that shaped her led to her extensive list of awards and accolades. It will also seek to provide insight into how her world view, natural gifts, and personality traits drove her successes.
