Story12
That Distant Land collects 23 stories, interlinked with each other and with the other published "Port William" novels. The stories, arranged in their fictional chronology (from 1888 to almost the present day), become one sustained work, a new novel that spans the entire life and time involved. The range of this book is extraordinary - it offers rest for the weary, hope for the beleaguered, and strength for everyone else.

For more than fifty years, Wendell Berry has been telling us stories about Port William, a mythical town on the banks of the Kentucky River, populated over the years by a cast of unforgettable characters living in a single place over a long time. In A Place in Time, the stories dates range from 1864, when Rebecca Dawe finds herself in her own reflection at the end of the Civil War, to one from 1991 when Grover Gibbs's widow, Beulah, attends the auction as her home place is offered for sale.

For those readers of his poetry and inspired by his increasingly vital work as advocate for rational land use and the right-size life, these stories of Wendell Berry's offer entry into the fictional place of value and beauty that is Port William, Kentucky. Berry has said it's taken a lifetime for him to learn to write like an old man, and that's what we have here, stories told with grace and ease and majesty. Wendell Berry is one of our greatest living American authors, writing with the wisdom of maturity and the incandescence that comes of love.

In this volume we examine some of the short stories of William Makepeace Thackeray. The great author of Vanity Fair and The Luck of Barry Lyndon was born in India in 1811. At age five his father died, and his mother sent him back to England. His education was of the best, but he himself seemed unable to apply his talents to a rigorous work ethic. After a few years of marriage his wife began to suffer from depression and over the years became detached from reality.

Edgar Allan Poe gilt als Ikone der amerikanischen Kurzgeschichte und Mitbegründer dieser literarischen Gattung. Die Elemente des Mysteriösen, Phantastischen, Unbegreiflichen, Grotesken, Rätselhaften, Transzendentalen schwingen immer als subtiles Klanggebilde in seine Erzählungen mit und regen aufgeschlossene Gemüter zum Nachdenken über all die unzähligen Dinge, die wir nicht imstande sind auch nur annähernd zu erklären, wohltuend an.

William Wilson descubre en el colegio que existe un alumno con sus mismos nombres y apellidos, ingresó el mismo día que él en el colegio y nació en idéntica fecha a la de su cumpleaños. La superioridad que ejerce su alter ego con respecto a él se empieza a convertir en obsesión... William Wilson es uno de los relatos clásicos de Poe, en el cual el escritor de Baltimore se convierte en uno de los pioneros al presentarnos la figura del doble, el otro yo, aquel que en cualquier momento puede arrebatarnos lo más preciado de nuestras vidas, es decir, la identidad.

William Wilson hat eine Wahrnehmungsschwäche - oder ist es eine Denkschwäche? Er kann sich zwei widerstreitende Positionen seelischer oder gesellschaftlicher Art nicht in einer Person verbunden vorstellen. Er ist ein Schuft, ein Schurke und Verbrecher und bekennt an seinem Lebensende, wie es so weit hat kommen können. Die Antwort ist einfach. Seine Erklärungen sind teils nachvollziehbar, teils lange nach Ende des Hörbuchs noch rätselhaft. In seiner Jugend fiel ihm ein vermaledeiter Doppelgänger unentwegt in den Arm - oder quälte ihn sein Gewissen?

Story0
"William Wilson" is an 1839 short story by Edgar Allan Poe, set in London. The author explores the theme of the evil twin, as a precursor to later tales like "Markheim" by Robert Louis Stevenson and Oscar Wilde’s "The Picture of Dorian Gray". The protagonist, whose real name isn’t exactly William Wilson, denounces his past while denying full responsibility for his actions. It all started at school when a boy with that name and the same birthday appeared in his life. The more the narrator sees of the other William Wilson, the more he dislikes him.

William Pett Ridge was born at Chartham, near Canterbury, Kent, on 22 April 1859. His family’s resources were certainly limited. His father was a Railway Porter, and the young Pett Ridge, after schooling in Marden, Kent became a Clerk in a railway clearing-house. The hours were long and arduous, but self-improvement was Pett Ridge’s goal. After working from nine until seven o’clock he would attend evening classes at Birkbeck Literary and Scientific Institute to follow his passion: the ambition to write.
