And The Stars Were Shining by José Miguel Roig Pdf

It tells of the love affair between Prince Hasegawa, a young Japanese officer and Maria Antonieta, an older Spanish-Filipino woman, during the Second World. War. The events occur in a Sugar Central in the island of Negros, the Philippines, and the Japanese occupation and local guerillas condition their love. He doesn’t speak English or Spanish, she doesn’t speak Japanese. Opera is the medium that unites them. The story is seen through the eyes of the officer seven decades later, when he is a very old man. He promised he would come back for her but he never did. The wound is still open and the search to heal it embarks Hasegawa on a sentimental journey back to where their love flourished. This is also a story about dignity and human compassion in battle.

And the Stars Were Shining by John Ashbery Pdf

Witty yet heartbreaking, conversational yet richly lyrical, John Ashbery’s sixteenth poetry collection showcases a mastery uniquely his own And the Stars Were Shining originally appeared in 1994, toward the midpoint of a startlingly creative period in Ashbery’s long career, during which the great American poet published no fewer than nine books in ten years. The collection brings together more than fifty compact, jewellike, intensely felt poems, including the well-known “Like a Sentence” (“How little we know, / and when we know it!”) and the lyrical, deeply moving thirteen-part title poem recognized as one of the author’s greatest. This collection is Ashbery at his most accessible, graceful, and elegiac.
