DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Bent Twig By Dorothy Canfield Fisher An interesting and thoughtful novel, a vivid portrayal of an unconventional professor's family in a middle west university. The contrast between their unassuming simplicity and fineness and the more spectacular standards of the social leaders of the town makes a test for proving the character of Sylvia. She wavers, but the long and beautiful influence of her mother prevails even after her death. The other characters are true to type, the mother is a positive inspiration.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBut it would be unfair to the reader to reveal what happens when a gang of professional crooks gets wind of the scheme and moves to muscle in on this bettors' dream of a long-odds situation. Worked out with all the meticulous detail, terror, and suspense of a nightmare, the tale is, on one level, comparable to a Graham Greene thriller; on another, it explores a group of people, their relationships fears, and loves. For as Leslie A. Fiedler says in his introduction, "John Hawkes.. . makes terror rather than love the center of his work, knowing all the while, of course, that there can be no terror without the hope for love and love's defeat . . . ."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIsaiah Berlin is regarded by many as one of the greatest historians of ideas of his time. In The Crooked Timber of Humanity, he argues passionately, eloquently, and subtly, that what he calls 'the Great Goods' of human aspiration - liberty, justice, equality - do not cohere and never can. Pluralism and variety of thought are not avoidable compromises, but the glory of civilisation. In an age of increasing ideological fundamentalism and intolerance we need to listen to Isaiah Berlin more carefully than ever before.
