  • M Organ's Voice
    Morgan’s Voice POEMS & STORIES Morgan Segal Copyright © 1997 by Robert Segal All rights reserved. Library of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication Data Segal, Morgan Morgan’s Voice Poems & Stories ISBN 0-9G62027-0-8 First Edition 1997 Designed by Riley Smith Printed in the United States of America by Pacific Rim Printers/Mailers 11924 W. Washington Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90066 Printed on acid-free, recycled paper. The gift of sharing so intimately in Morgan’s life, through her prose and poetry, is one all will commit to their hearts. Here are remembrances, emotionally inspired, of personal journeys through a landscape of experience that has been both tranquil and turbulent. Her poems are “pearls dancing,” shimmering like her own life in an all too brief sunlight; her stories portraits, at times fragile, at times triumphant in their will to witness lasting humaness. She is truly a talent and a presence too soon lost. -James Ragan, Poet Director, Professional Writing Program University of Southern California Morgan possessed a rare and beautiful soul. Those wide brown eyes of hers shone forth with a child’s curiosity and innocence. But her heart was the heart of woman who was haunted by unfathomable darkness. Morgan’s words are infused with depth, wisdom, honesty, courage and insight. Her descriptions reveal the intense thirst she had for even the most mundane aspects of life — a fingernail, the scale of a fish, a grandfather’s breath, a strand of hair. The attention she pays to details can help us to return to our lives with a renewed revereance for all the subtle miracles that surround us each moment.

  • Paying Guests
    Paying Guests By E. F. Benson Paying Guests CHAPTER I Bolton Spa, justly famous for the infamous savour of the waters which so magically get rid of painful deposits in the joints and muscles of the lame and the halt, and for the remedial rasp of its saline baths in which the same patients are pickled daily to their great relief, had been crammed all the summer, and the proprietors of its hotels and boarding houses had been proving that for them at least rheumatism and its kindred afflictions had a silver if not a golden lining. Never had Wentworth and Balmoral and Blenheim and Belvoir entertained so continuous a complement of paying guests, and even now, though the year had wheeled into mid-October, and the full season was long past, Mrs. Oxney was still booking rooms for fresh arrivals at Wentworth during the next two months. In fact she did not know when she would get off on her holiday, and as long as this prosperous tide continued to flow, she cared very little whether she got off at all. Though she did not want money, she liked it, and though she liked a holiday, she did not want it. The existence, or rather the names, of Balmoral, Blenheim and Belvoir was a slight but standing grievance with Mrs. Oxney, the sort of grievance which occasionally kept her awake for half an hour should it perch in her drowsy consciousness as she composed herself to sleep and begin pecking at her mind. 'For naturally,' so she thought to herself in these infrequent vigils, 'if a lady or gentleman was thinking of coming to Bolton Spa, and wanted comfort and, I may say, luxury when they are taking their cure, they would look at the Baths Guide-book, and imagine that Balmoral and Blenheim and Belvoir and Wentworth were all much of a muchness.

LONDON, PARIS & NEW YORK. [ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.] LOAN STACK g^oC^B GIFT PREFACE This Work is a companion volume to Cassell's Book of Sports and Pastimes. As the latter—with the exception of the special sections on " " Recreative Science," " The Workshop," and " Home Pets —is lai'gely occupied with games and sports which are usually carried on out-of-doore, it will be seen that the present book, which is almost exclusively devoted to indoor games of vaiious kinds, forms a very fitting supplement to the other. It has been the constant aim of the different writers to convey their infonnation in plain, accurate, dii-ect fashion, so that readers may come to understand, on the lii-st occasion of consulting it, that Cassell's Book of Indoor Amusements, Card Games, and Fireside Fun is a Work that deserves their confidence, and may accordingly acquire the habit of referring to it, as a matter of course, when in doubt on any point connected with their favourite games, or when desirous of learning new amusements. Reference has now and again been unavoid- ably made to outdoor games, either by way of comparison or suggestion for further details. In such cases the reference always has been to the companion volume already mentioned, so that readers possessing the two books will have no difficulty in following the instructions of the Author.

  • Cities of the Plain (Sodom and Gomorrah)
    Cities of the Plain (Sodom and Gomorrah) Proust, Marcel (Translator: C K Scott Moncrieff) Published: 1927 Type(s): Novels, Romance, Sexuality Source: http://gutenberg.net.au Cities of the Plain (Sodom and Gomorrah) 2 About Proust: Proust was born in Auteuil (the southern sector of Paris’s then-rustic 16th ar- rondissement) at the home of his great-uncle, two months after the Treaty of Frankfurt formally ended the Franco-Prussian War. His birth took place during the violence that surrounded the suppression of the Paris Commune, and his childhood corresponds with the consolidation of the French Third Republic. Much of Remem- brance of Things Past concerns the vast changes, most particularly the decline of the aristocracy and the rise of the middle classes, that occurred in France during the Third Republic and the fin de siècle. Proust’s father, Achille Adrien Proust, was a famous doctor and epidemiologist, responsible for studying and attempting to remedy the causes and movements of cholera through Europe and Asia; he was the author of many articles and books on medicine and hygiene. Proust’s mother, Jeanne Clémence Weil, was the daughter of a rich and cultured Jewish family. Her father was a banker. She was highly literate and well-read. Her letters demonstrate a well-developed sense of humour, and her command of English was sufficient for her to provide the necessary impetus to her son’s later attempts to translate John Ruskin. By the age of nine, Proust had had his first serious asthma attack, and thereafter he was considered by himself, his family and his friends as a sickly child.
