Alphabetical Africa by Walter Abish Pdf

"Walter Abish has dovetailed his novel within a Procrustean scheme that has the terrifying and irrefutable logic of the alphabet. Alphabetical Africa is in the line of writers such as Raymond Roussel, Raymond Queneau, Georges Perec and Harry Mathews, who have used constrictive forms to penetrate the space on the other side of poetry." -- John Ashbery

Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates by Tom Robbins Pdf

“As clever and witty a novel as anyone has written in a long time . . . Robbins takes readers on a wild, delightful ride. . . . A delight from beginning to end.”—Buffalo News Switters is a contradiction for all seasons: an anarchist who works for the government; a pacifist who carries a gun; a vegetarian who sops up ham gravy; a cyberwhiz who hates computers; a man who, though obsessed with the preservation of innocence, is aching to deflower his high-school-age stepsister (only to become equally enamored of a nun ten years his senior). Yet there is nothing remotely wishy-washy about Switters. He doesn’t merely pack a pistol. He is a pistol. And as we dog Switters’s strangely elevated heels across four continents, in and out of love and danger, discovering in the process the “true” Third Secret of Fatima, we experience Tom Robbins—that fearless storyteller, spiritual renegade, and verbal break dancer—at the top of his game. On one level this is a fast-paced CIA adventure story with comic overtones; on another it’s a serious novel of ideas that brings the Big Picture into unexpected focus; but perhaps more than anything else, Fierce Invalids is a sexy celebration of language and life. Praise for Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates “Superb.”—New York Post “Dangerous? Wicked? Forbidden? You bet. . . . Pour yourself a bowl of chips and dig in.”—Daily News, New York “Robbins is a great writer . . . and definitely a provocative rascal.”—The Tennessean “Whoever said truth is stranger than fiction never read a Tom Robbins novel. . . Clever, creative, and witty, Robbins tosses off impassioned observations like handfuls of flower petals.”—San Diego Union-Tribune

English Vocabulary Boost: Top 1000 Words by Ben Kaiser Pdf

This series of books focusses on rapid progress in learning English. Becoming fluent and having a good working knowledge of the language is most likely your goal and you will need systems to achieve this goal. These books contain systematically organised vocabulary to assist you. The average adult English speaker has a vocabulary of approximately 20,000 words that they know well and use and a further 15,000 to 20,000 words that they can recognise and know the meaning of when they encounter them. By using these resources to become familiar with the most frequently used words in the English language you will be able to concentrate your learning efforts where they will pay the most return. The first one or two thousand words will comprise the bulk of most books, articles and newspapers but the 35,000th piece of vocabulary for an English speaker will only be encountered quite rarely. Therefore it is well worth your while to concentrate your learning efforts on becoming familiar with these 1,000 most frequently encountered words.
