  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

  • John Grisham
    JOHN GRISHAM Long before his name became synonymous with the modern legal thriller, he was working 60-70 hours a week at a small Southaven, Mississippi, law practice, squeezing in time before going to the office and during courtroom recesses to work on his hobby—writing his first novel. Born on February 8, 1955 in Jonesboro, Arkansas, to a construction worker and a homemaker, John Grisham as a child dreamed of being a professional baseball player. Realizing he didn’t have the right stuff for a pro career, he shifted gears and majored in accounting at Mississippi State University. After graduating from law school at Ole Miss in 1981, he went on to practice law for nearly a decade in Southaven, specializing in criminal defense and personal injury litigation. In 1983, he was elected to the state House of Representatives and served until 1990. One day at the DeSoto County courthouse, Grisham overheard the harrowing testimony of a twelve-year-old rape victim and was inspired to start a novel exploring what would have happened if the girl’s father had murdered her assailants. Getting up at 5 a.m. every day to get in several hours of writing time before heading off to work, Grisham spent three years on A Time to Kill and finished it in 1987. Initially rejected by many publishers, it was eventually bought by Wynwood Press, who gave it a modest 5,000 copy printing and published it in June 1988. That might have put an end to Grisham’s hobby. However, he had already begun his next book, and it would quickly turn that hobby into a new full-time career—and spark one of publishing’s greatest success stories.

  • Covid-19 Book Group October 2020
    John Grisham The Whistler William I chose to read ‘The Whistler’ as I have watched the film of the alternative book ‘The Runaway Jury’. For once the eulogies were well-founded. After an indifferent start the storyline gained in momentum. The focus for the story is the investigation into the machinations of a corrupt judge. Surely this is a fiction and as such they don’t exist. Not in the UK anyway - all British judges are incorruptible. That’s a fundamental tenet of our judicial system….. but they are prone to handing down idiotic rulings. Authors do use their storylines to expose social injustice and corruption and maybe this is Grisham’s genre with the psychological aspects of the issues raised in the book exposing social imperfections and legal indiscretions. If I criticise the story it is rather formulaic, but the book did capture my interest, generated some suspense but wasn’t challenging in its choice of language. The characters were believable for the USA and social justice was served in its denouement. Grisham commenced his career as a lawyer where he must have witnessed dubious behaviour of others in the profession and this must have conditioned his attitude. Another author who didn’t care for lawyers was Charles Dickens who used his books to expose their greed and malpractice. In ‘Bleak House’ (Jarndyce and Jarndyce) the lawyers’ claims for expenses granted by the Court of Chancery only ended when the large family inheritance was finally exhausted leaving nothing for the families. Another of Dickens’ characters: Mr Jaggers (Great Expectations) - reassured Pip that he wouldn’t have to pay for his services as he was already being paid a great deal of money and if he wasn’t being paid a great deal of money then he wouldn’t be doing the work.
