Jacob's Room (version 2)-Virginia Woolf

Lore of Proserpine by Maurice Henry Hewlett.If a thing is not sensibly true it may be morally so. If it is not phenomenally true it may be so substantially. And it is possible that one may see substance in the idiom, so to speak, of the senses. That, I take it, is how the Greeks saw thunder-storms and other huge convulsions; that is how they saw meadow, grove and stream—in terms of their own fair humanity. They saw such natural phenomena as shadows of spiritual conflict or of spiritual calm, and within the appearance apprehended the truth. So it may be that I have done. Some such may be the explanation of all fairy experience. Let it be so. It is a fact, I believe, that there is nothing revealed in this book which will not bear a spiritual, and a moral, interpretation; and I venture to say of some of it that the moral implications involved are exceedingly momentous, and timely too. I need not refer to such matters any further.Featured on The Sun Also Rises - Ernest Hemingway.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.

When Knights Were Bold by Eva March Tappan.This book is in no degree an attempt to relate the involved and intricate history of the Middle Ages. Its plan is, rather, to present pictures of the manner of life and habits of thought of the people who lived between the eighth and fifteenth centuries. Our writings and our everyday conversation are full of their phrases and of allusions to their ideas. Many of our thoughts and feelings and instincts, of our very follies and superstitions, have descended to us from them. To become better acquainted with them is to explain ourselves.Featured on The Sun Also Rises - Ernest Hemingway.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.

Jacob's Room (version 2) by Virginia Woolf.Largely from the comments of others we come to know the sequence and some moments of Jacob’s life but we never fully learn who Jacob is.

Blazed Trail Stories and Stories Of The Wild Life by Stewart Edward White.Thirteen short stories by a popular writer of the early 20th century (not to be confused with an earlier book Blazed Trail). White's books were popular at a time when America was losing its vanishing wilderness. He was a keen observer of the beauties of nature and human nature, yet could render them in a plain-spoken style. Based on his own experience, whether writing camping journals or Westerns, he included pithy and fun details about cabin-building, canoeing, logging, gold-hunting, and guns and fishing and hunting. He also interviewed people who had been involved in the fur trade, the California gold rush and other pioneers which provided him with details that give his novels verisimilitude. He salted in humor and sympathy for colorful characters such as canny Indian guides and "greenhorn" campers who carried too much gear.Featured on The Sun Also Rises - Ernest Hemingway.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.

Twilight Sleep by Edith Wharton.Wharton miraculously finds it possible to satirize the very rich while simultaneously showing compassion and even grudging admiration for some of her victims. Every character she introduces is vividly depicted, no matter how minor. Yet for all the clarity of these depictions, the lives these people live, though busy, are empty and meaningless. The novel is a brilliant description of evasion and inauthenticity.Featured on The Sun Also Rises - Ernest Hemingway.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.

Torrents of Spring by Ernest Hemingway.The Torrents of Spring was Hemingway's second novel to be published. It would not be wrong to say that it is unique among the author's work as it is a clear parody of Sherwood Anderson's Dark Laughter and full of absurdist humor. Were Hemingway's name not attached to it, one might wonder who actually wrote the novel. In truth, no one is treated in a sensitive way.Featured on The Sun Also Rises - Ernest Hemingway.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.
