Lauake, kata end

Elas kord mees, kes oli puruvaene ja rikas samaaegselt. Tal oli nii palju lapsi, kes talle rõõmu tõid, aga ilmaski ei jõudnud ta piisavalt raha teenida, et neid kõik ära toita. Seetõttu lahkus ta kodunt, et minna tööle kauge maa kuninga teenistusse.

I'm With the Bears

A stellar line-up of fiction writers envision the terrors of impending climate change. The size and severity of the global climate crisis is such that even the most committed environmentalists are liable to live in a state of denial. The award-winning writers collected here have made it their task to shake off this nagging disbelief, bringing the incomprehensible within our grasp and shaping an emotional response to the deterioration of our global habitat. From T. C. Boyle’s account of early...

Ann: A Story of Intolerance

John Moehl

Ann: A Story of Intolerance

Ann may have been a product of her times–she was certainly, if possibly unwittingly, a product of her grandmother Isabelle. While Ann may have been molded by external forces, Isabelle was a force unto herself–a pacesetter, an indomitable woman of her times. Isabelle forged avenues that were often not taken by women of her day, even foreshadowing changes in perception that were still years away. Yet, in spite of her often avant-garde actions, her prejudices were unwavering and largely myopic....

Catharsis

Luis Reinaldo Perez Rosario

Catharsis

Grief can do terrible things to us. It can hold us still in time and skew our perspective. That is the case with William Maldonado, who grieves the loss of his father as a child to war; the loss of his mother as a young adult to an illness; the loss of an opportunity to pursue a doctoral degree, and the loss of his professional reputation to an accusation of committing insurance fraud. Subterranean sorrow leads Maldonado to make wrong-minded decisions that eventually lead him to prison and then...

The Dean’s Demise

The Dean’s Demise

Not everyone is surprised at the rumor suggesting that Karl Wolfe, Dean of The University School, recently told Rebecca Swingle, new professor at the school, that a promotion could be more easily attained were she to sleep with him. Certainly those least surprised were several female students who had been the target of the Dean's amorous behavior. But the question remains–who might stand and suggest that such behavior should not occur in a divinity school, of all places? The Dean's...

Lenda minuga

Stjuardessina alustanud Laura teeb lennukompaniis karjääri ning satub keerulisse armukolmnurka, mis sunnib teda silmitsi seisma sügavamate küsimustega, kes ta on ja mida elult tahab. Otsides vastuseid, mida ja keda ta kõige rohkem armastab ning milline mees talle sobib, avastab noor naine perekonnas läbi mitme põlvkonna edasi kandunud käitumismustri. Saatusel on aga tema jaoks veel palju põnevat varuks… muu hulgas rohkelt reise, pidusid, glamuuri, seiklusi ja rõõmu.

Man Tiger

Man Tiger

A wry, affecting tale set in a small town on the Indonesian coast, Man Tiger tells the story of two interlinked and tormented families and of Margio, a young man ordinary in all particulars except that he conceals within himself a supernatural female white tiger. The inequities and betrayals of family life coalesce around and torment this magical being. An explosive act of violence follows, and its mysterious cause is unraveled as events progress toward a heartbreaking revelation. Lyrical and...

Naked Believer

Douglas Alan Walrath

Naked Believer

From the beginning the bright and articulate English teacher and the tall, strong, and equally bright minister sense they are different, but they assume they can still enjoy a friendship. And they do; Mary Kerrigan and Walter Macdonald play and probe and spar. Then the unanticipated happens: friendship deepens into love, and differences that were intriguing when they were just friends become ominous. She's irreverent; he's traditional. She's unfettered; he's committed....

The Debate on Postcolonial Theory and the Specter of Capital

Leading thinkers’ critiques of award-winning Postcolonial Theory, as well as the author’s responses and reformulations Vivek Chibber’s Postcolonial Theory and the Specter of Capital was hailed on publication as “without any doubt … a bomb,” and “the most substantive effort to dismantle the field through historical reasoning published to date.” It immediately unleashed one of the most important recent debates in social theory, ranging across the humanities and social sciences, on the status of...

Nõiutud emahirv

Itaalia muinasjutt

Nõiutud emahirv

Suur on sõpruse vägi, mis paneb meid kaaslase nimel raskusi taluma ja end ohtu seadma. Sageli peame oma heaolu tühiseks ja elu õlekõrreks, kui saame need teiste heaks anda. Seda õpetavad meile mõistulood ja ajalugu on neist juhtumitest tulvil. Selles loos toon teile näite, mida vanaema minuga seostada tavatses. Avage siis oma kõrvad, sulgege suu ja kuulake, mis mul teile öelda on.
