The Twilight of the Souls (Classic Reprint) by Louis Couperus Pdf

Excerpt from The Twilight of the Souls This is the third of the novels known as The Book of the Small Souls and is by some considered the greatest of the series. Be this as it may - and I confess that personally I like Small Souls the best - it is, beyond dispute, one of the most masterly and striking stories that this generation has produced. It can be read separately and independently, but will be enjoyed more fully by those who are familiar with Small Souls and The Later Life. The series will conclude with the next volume, which, in the English version, will be entitled Dr. Adriaan.

The Twilight Soul (Classic Reprint) by Gustave Frederick Mertins Pdf

Excerpt from The Twilight Soul To shut the glad ship Pleasure out, To lock the sad ship Yearning in. At Jules Baronne's black tables stand Whereat the shuffling waiters find, In fellowship of frank desire, The figs and thistles of mankind. St. Peter's carillon rings sweet Strung in the gothic tower high; Yet sweet too are the harp and flute Within the buvette hard thereby. But flute and harp and prayer and bell Have each their mockers in the town; Himself each man sees marching up.

Small Souls (Classic Reprint) by Louis Couperus Pdf

Excerpt from Small Souls This story is translated from the Dutch of Louis Couperus, the foremost novelist in a country which has lately had the good sense to join the Berne Convention. Friends who have seen my version in manuscript suggest to me that certain details of the action and dialogue strike an exotic note to English ears and may therefore need some interpretation. But I could not bring myself to burden a work of fiction with an array of foot-notes nor to believe that it is really necessary to explain to readers of Couperus' fellow-countryman, "Maarten Maartens," that Dutch men and women of the upper classes still call their parents "Papa" and "Mamma," as the English did in the sixties, and still drink tea after dinner, as the English did in the forties; that, in Holland, persons of quality are not addressed by their titles in conversation; that it is not quite correct, or that it is at least a departure from the aristocratic tradition, for a lady of family not to wash up her own breakfast-china at the table; that the Dutch speak of Java as India and sometimes marry native wives, who, nihilo obstante, are "received" by the "family" at home.

The Slayer of Souls (Classic Reprint) by Robert W. Chambers Pdf

Excerpt from The Slayer of Souls For four years, waking or sleeping, the awful sub consciousness of supreme evil had never left her. But now, as the Korean shore, receding into dark ness, grew dimmer and dimmer, fear subsided and grew vague as the half-forgotten memory of horror in a dream. She stood near the steamer's stern apart from other passengers, a slender, lonely figure in her silver-fox furs, her ulster and smart little hat, watch ing the lights of yuen-san grow paler and smaller along the horizon until they looked like a level row of stars. Under her haunted eyes Asia was slowly dis solving to a streak of vapour in the misty lustre of the moon.

Twilight in Italy (Classic Reprint) by D. H. Lawrence Pdf

Excerpt from Twilight in Italy The imperial road to Italy goes from Munich across the Tyrol, through Innsbruck and Bozen to Verona, over the mountains. Here the great processions passed as the emperors went South, or came home again from rosy Italy to their own Germany. And how much has that old imperial vanity clung to the German soul? Did not the German kings inherit the empire of bygone Rome? It was not a very real empire, perhaps, but the sound was high and splendid.

Love and the Soul Maker (Classic Reprint) by Mary Hunter Austin Pdf

Excerpt from Love and the Soul Maker If somebody would only write a book about it!" said Valda McNath, "a believable book!" We were sitting on the steps in front of Valda's bungalow in the clear obscure of twilight, watching the flat welter of the water far out on the Sound, and a blundering moth came and stirred the sweet white spikes of the phlox. Valda had been crying. "The trouble with books about it," she said, "is that they are too scientific, or tales made out to fit a special case. It wants just a human book; true and human." Valda sighed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Woman of the Twilight, the Story of a Story (Classic Reprint) by Marah Ellis Ryan Pdf

Excerpt from The Woman of the Twilight, the Story of a Story All this from Gilman, in his short, jerky sentences as he steered the machine along the mesa from Laguna, with never a glance at the ultramarine of the sea on his right or the carpet of bloom where the range lay in great billows on his left. He prided himself on being able to write a column of live matter and con fine himself to words of one or two syllables, and that rapid fire method became a part of his own speech after he found it had a market value. Sargent listened and watched him and smiled. You and your machine are typical, Gilman, he observed; your ultimate ambition seems to be to make a record, to get somewhere; and you see and hear' nothing in your going. For the sake of your own soul, listen to that meadow-lark, and look at the wonderful color in the water by the cliff. It changes like an abalone shell in the light and holds all the shades from indigo blue to pink and a veil as of white lace ever forming and sinking, and forming again in a new pattern.

Twilight and Evening Bell (Classic Reprint) by Robert Caspar Lintner Pdf

Excerpt from Twilight and Evening BellTwo years ago this interpretation of Crossing the Bar was written, before the author went overseas in the United States Army. Now after a complete revision it is offered in booklet form to the public.May it come into the hands of many of those who love the coming of evening with its sunset glory and the marvel of the nightly unveiling of God's stars. There is no other time when the wonder of heaven seems to creep more tangibly into the silence of our own souls, and when the heart seems more readily to fall in tune with the vast symphony of God - His plan.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
