Описание:
People over 50 puzzle out their future in tales of men and women (and a robot), who are poised on the brink of a precipitous challenge. There are a wide variety of personalities and situations they have gotten into, but they all find a way forward. A comedian wants to be taken seriously in his old age, a 60-year-old robot has high aspirations when it is upgraded, the proprietress of a Dodge City saloon tries to write a memoir, and a food critic learns to enjoy food again. The characters in these stories have arrived at life-changing crossroads, giving readers a chance to wonder about which path they will choose. It doesn't help that they have entered into a new territory of life, where it seems as though somebody has changed the signposts, the landscape looks different, and the choices aren't always clear.

Описание: Yosano Akiko (1878-1942) has long been recognized as one of the most important literary figures of prewar Japan. Her renown derives principally from the passion of her early poetry and from her contributions to 20th-century debates about women. This emphasis obscures a major part of her career, which was devoted to work on the Japanese classics and, in particular, the great Heian period text The Tale of Genji. Akiko herself felt that Genji was the bedrock upon which her entire literary career was built, and her bibliography shows a steadily increasing amount of time devoted to projects related to the tale. This study traces for the first time the full range of Akiko's involvement with The Tale of Genji.
The Tale of Genji provided Akiko with her conception of herself as a writer and inspired many of her most significant literary projects. She, in turn, refurbished the tale as a modern novel, pioneered some of the most promising avenues of modern academic research on Genji, and, to a great extent, gave the text the prominence it now enjoys as a translated classic. Through Akiko's work Genji became, in fact as well as in name, an exemplum of that most modern of literary genres, the novel. In delineating this important aspect of Akiko's life and her bibliography, this study aims to show that facile descriptions of Akiko as a ""poetess of passion"" or ""new woman"" will no longer suffice.

Описание: Once Swithin Hook and his father Patrick take in Mandy from the clutches of an evil agency, their lives are forever changed. And as the Agency pursues Mandy, Mandy must find the will to keep them from her mind and the power it contains without killing herself in the process, because she is convinced her death would make things so much worse. A definition of calm, Swithin Hook gives his all to Mandy, even as she pushes him away. The supernatural hunting community assumes he will be a legend and his modest nature cannot quite grasp that fact, even after he has proven it true. He must fight his own inner demons which pull him from his strong faith. There are those in the hunting community against them, including Swithin's father, who is the unofficial leader of the hunting community. Luckily, Mandy's respected, yet cad, partner, Thomas Regal is on their side, while she and Swithin contend with ancient witches, a host of monsters, secrets to the universes and the strength of love.
