DOWNLOAD EBOOKPursue to Paradise is a memoir, biography of a single Canadian woman, with a son, journeying through Costa Rica with a full bag of talents and a deck of cards, that sustained her, to reach her full potential as a human being. With the economic down turn and society's negative feedbacks, she embraced reality and forged ahead with integrity, happiness and firm stability of who she is and became to be; regardless of the usual bubble system feedback, that we all normally hear. The message here, is to shed some light onto a large majority of people who say they can't find work, which seems to be the biggest cop out around lately! They can change their mindset from this story. Costa Rica is catering to the baby boomers and will continue to guide Canadians and others, to the land of paradise, and this fun factual story is the real nitty gritty of just how one can really learn entrepreneurial skills forced out of survival; and stop complaining about how they are out of work; or can't seem to find a 'JOB' because that is the ultimate excuse to go nowhere to lazy land. Hold the dream is the message of this book. Believe who you are and want to be, because the shift of humanity is just about to unfold. Join the movement of this message in "Pursue to Paradise". This is a fantastic time to re-learn and be alive!

DOWNLOAD EBOOKEmphasizing the interplay of aesthetic forms and religious modes, Sean Pryor's ambitious study takes up the endlessly reiterated longing for paradise that features throughout the works of W. B. Yeats and Ezra Pound. Yeats and Pound define poetry in terms of paradise and paradise in terms of poetry, Pryor suggests, and these complex interconnections fundamentally shape the development of their art. Even as he maps the shared influences and intellectual interests of Yeats and Pound, and highlights those moments when their poetic theories converge, Pryor's discussion of their poems' profound formal and conceptual differences uncovers the distinctive ways each writer imagines the divine, the good, the beautiful, or the satisfaction of desire. Throughout his study, Pryor argues that Yeats and Pound reconceive the quest for paradise as a quest for a new kind of poetry, a journey that Pryor traces by analysing unpublished manuscript drafts and newly published drafts that have received little attention. For Yeats and Pound, the journey towards a paradisal poetic becomes a never-ending quest, at once self-defeating and self-fulfilling - a formulation that has implications not only for the work of these two poets but for the study of modernist literature.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe novel's new incarnation, "This Side of Paradise", a largely autobiographical story about love and greed, was centered on Amory Blaine, an ambitious Midwesterner who falls in love with, but is ultimately rejected by, two girls from high-class families. The novel was published in 1920 to glowing reviews and, almost overnight, turned Fitzgerald, at the age of 24, into one of the country's most promising young writers. One week after the novel's publication, he married Zelda Sayre in New York. They had one child, a daughter named Frances Scott Fitzgerald, born in 1921. In 1922, Fitzgerald published his second novel, "The Beautiful and Damned", the story of the troubled marriage of Anthony and Gloria Patch. The Beautiful and Damned helped to cement his status as one of the great chroniclers and satirists of the culture of wealth, extravagance and ambition that emerged during the affluent 1920s-what became known as the Jazz Age.
