DOWNLOAD EBOOK →A fascinating examination of the ambitions and friendships of a talented group of midcentury women artists Farewell to the Muse documents what it meant to be young, ambitious, and female in the context of an avant-garde movement defined by celebrated men whose backgrounds were often quite different from those of their younger lovers and companions. Focusing on the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, Whitney Chadwick charts five female friendships among the Surrealists to show how Surrealism, female friendship, and the experiences of war, loss, and trauma shaped individual women’s transitions from someone else’s muse to mature artists in their own right. Her vivid account includes the fascinating story of Claude Cahun and Suzanne Malherbe in occupied Jersey, as well as the experiences of Lee Miller and Valentine Penrose at the front line. Chadwick draws on personal correspondence between women, including the extraordinary letters between Leonora Carrington and Leonor Fini during the months following the arrest and imprisonment of Carrington’s lover Max Ernst and the letter Frida Kahlo shared with her friend and lover Jacqueline Lamba years after it was written in the late 1930s. This history brings a new perspective to the political context of Surrealism as well as fresh insights on the vital importance of female friendship to its progress.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Kahlil Gibran considered The Prophet his greatest achievement. He said: "I think I've never been without The Prophet since I first conceived it in Mount Lebanon. It seems to have been a part of me....I kept the manuscript four years before I delivered it over to my publisher, because I wanted to be sure, I wanted to be very sure, that every word of it was the very best I had to offer." The Chicago Post said of The Prophet: "Cadenced and vibrant with feeling, the words of Kahlil Gibran bring to one's ears the majestic rhythm of Ecclesiastes....If there is a man or woman who can read this book without a quiet acceptance of a great man's philosophy and a singing in the heart as of music born within, that man or woman is indeed dead to life and truth."

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This Italian fiction is a true drama about disappointment, with little action but a fantastic psychological breakdown of characters and their circumstances. It is filled with themes of revolt, disillusioned remorse, and willful condemnation as a means to redemption. After a thoughtful reading of this remarkable work, one can find several other significant themes. The title, Addio, Amore! (Farewell, Love!), carries with it the anguished cry of a soul fated to pursue love in a world that seems to have none at all. The characters in this work are induced with sensitive power and sympathetic extent of spirit. The author of this work, Matilde Serao, was a Greek-born Italian journalist and novelist and was the first woman called to edit an Italian newspaper. She was also nominated for Nobel Prize six times. The pressure of a journalistic profession in no way restricted her literary career, and between 1890 and 1902, she produced seven superhit novels, including Farewell, Love!.
