Studs Lonigan

4.0 (1)
27

[William V. Lipton]from Ann Arbor, MI says: "This is both a coming-of-age novel and a social history. Set during the 1920s and 1930s, it follows Studs as he grows through his teen years in Chicago. It shows the influences on urban children, the stresses on families and the American society during that time. The characters and dialogue are captivating."

Platero y yo

Platero y yo es una obra lírica escrita por el escritor y Premio Nobel de Literatura (1956) español Juan Ramón Jiménez, que recrea poéticamente la vida del asno Platero, su inseparable amigo de niñez y juventud. El libro está constituido por breves estampas que entre sí no guardan un orden temático y responden a impresiones, sensaciones y recuerdos de Moguer en la etapa infantil de Juan Ramón Jiménez. Aparece como un diario en donde se detallan los aspectos más interesantes de la realidad, del pensamiento y del sentimiento del autor. Sin embargo, ni es un diario ni un libro autobiográfico, sino una selección de historias tomadas de un mismo ambiente real y escogidas entre los múltiples recuerdos del pasado.

Comments by Bob Corbett March 2012 The Celtic Twilight is divided into two parts. The first, written mainly in 1902, but some pieces as early as 1892, are small notes Yeats made in west Ireland as he was out gathering experiences and stories of others. The second part of the book, about 40% of the text, are poems set in Ireland and relevant to his exploration of the spirit world of Ireland.
