Book Therapy: Reading Is Life
by Nadal, Jordi    Zeldin, Theodore   
(Paperback - English - 9781912914319)
What can books do for us? Is reading useful? Is it therapeutic? Can it make us happy? Can it provide us with the spiritual resources necessary to shield ourselves from adversity? Can literature be prescribed? Does it benefit both body and soul? Science increasingly acknowledges the benefits of books. Studies show that the effects of reading can be equated with those of meditation and medicine. Readers sleep better, they experience lower levels of stress and depression and have higher self-esteem than non-readers. Reading prolongs life and changes us in an essential way; good fiction expands our horizons, it helps us to understand others better, it teaches us emp ..

Slight Exaggeration
by Zagajewski, Adam       
(Paperback - English - 9780374537517)
A new essay collection by the noted Polish poet For Adam Zagajewski--one of Poland's great poets--the project of writing, whether it be poetry or prose, is an occasion to advance what David Wojahn has characterized as his "restless and quizzical quest for self-knowledge." Slight Exaggeration is an autobiographical portrait of the poet, arranged not chronologically but with that same luminous quality that distinguishes Zagajewski's spellbinding poetry--an affinity for the invisible. In a mosaic-like blend of criticism, reflections, European history, and aphoristic musings, Zagajewski tells the stories of his life in glimpses and reveries--from the Second Worl ..

The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky (Translated by Constance Garnett): Adapted by Joseph Cowley
by Cowley, Joseph       
(Paperback - English - 9781631356100)
Fyodor Dostoevsky was the son of a doctor. His parents were hard-working, religious people, but poor. A brilliant career seemed open, but in 1849 he was arrested and condemned to death. A member of a group of young men who met to read Fourier and Proudhon, he was accused of "taking part in conversations against the censorship ... and of knowing of the intention to use a printing press." After eight months in jail, he was taken to be shot. Suddenly the prisoners were informed that His Majesty had spared their lives. His sentence was commuted to hard labor: four years of penal servitude in Siberia and some years in a disciplinary battalion. In 1864 Dostoevsky lost ..

Great Serbian Short Stories
by Mikasinovich, Branko    Ljubisa, Stjepan Mitrov    Glisic, Milovan
(Paperback - English - 9781513652511)
"But the country could not accept the bridge and the bridge could not accept the country." This quotation, from the short story "The Bridge on the Zepa," by the 1961 Nobel laureate Ivo Andric, whose story, "Thirst," is included in this collection, reflects the essence of the state of human relations in the Balkans. Here Andric observes that while bridges are built to connect and not divide, human nature, as it is, can lead to discord and alienation. In fact, throughout its history Serbia was a point of convergence, and even more often, a place of confrontation. The stories in this anthology depict figuratively the banks on either side of the bridge in Serbia and ..

Classical Albanian Literature: A Reader
by Elsie, Robert       
(Paperback - English - 9781515132769)
This reader presents the best of classical Albanian literature, from the end of the nineteenth to the middle of the twentieth century. It includes the best-known works of the age, poetry in particular. After a sluggish start, Albanian literature flourished in the 1920s and 1930s. By the mid-1930s, it reached a zenith, when intellectual life in the country was finally on a sound footing. A modern literature had been created in Albania and the nation had come of age. Alas, it was a brief blossoming in the shadow of the apocalypse which loomed in the form of the Stalinist regime that seized power in 1944 and would snuff out all genuine literary production for decad ..
