DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Maxwell Wallace has spent most of her vagabond life moving from fixer-upper to fixer-upper with her dad, Cal, and though she loves her dad, she's ready to move onto the next thing-college-to find her own version of home without him. Given that her whole life has been transient and temporary, when she meets Griffin Nichols, she figures it will be another relationship that shifts like the tumbleweeds on a breeze, here one moment and gone the next. Except, even as she leaves for college and the next phase of her life, she can't shake her feelings for Griffin and what she's leaving behind. Max begins to question everything she believes about herself as someone who stays, and what the idea of home really means.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Echo is cursed. Lachlan is mad. Each can save the other, but time, distance, magic, and war keep them apart. As a Nymph, Echo’s home is Dodona Forest, and she can’t leave. As a Changeling, Lachlan can’t remain himself for long. They find happiness together for a brief time, until mages bring war to Dodona Forest. To find one another again, they will have to overcome mages, war, time, distance, and even death.

They also appear in Shadow – Viktoria’s prequel, Viktoria’s Shadow: Jael, and Bijou’s Cure: Zeke. This novel serves as a companion work to the Vampires & Strygoi Witches/Strygoi Witches & Vampires series.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This book is a cross-linguistic study of the syntax of yes-no questions and their answers, drawing on data from a wide range of languages with particular focus on English, Finnish, Swedish, Thai, and Chinese. There are broadly two types of answer to yes-no questions: those that employ particles such as 'yes' and 'no' (as found in English) and those that echo a part of the question, usually the finite verb, with or without negation (as found in Finnish). The latter are uncontroversially derived by ellipsis, while the former have been claimed to be clause substitutes. Anders Holmberg argues instead that even answers that employ particles are complete sentences, derived by ellipsis from full sentential expressions, and that the two types share essential syntactic properties. The book also examines the related cross-linguistic and intralinguistic variation observed in answers to negative questions such as 'does he not drink coffee?', whereby 'yes' in one language appears to correspond to 'no' in another. The book illustrates how a seemingly trivial phenomenon can have the most wide-ranging consequences for theories of language, and will be of interest not only to theoretical linguists but also to students and scholars of typological and descriptive linguistics.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In this essay on "what the imagination has made of the phenomenon of echo,” John Hollander examines aspects of the figure of echo in light of their significance for poetry. Looking at echo in its literal, acoustic sense, echo in myth, and echo as literary allusion, Hollander concludes with a study of the rhetorical status of the figure of echo and an examination of the ancient and newly interesting trope of metalepsis, or transumption, which it appears to embody. Centered on ways in which Milton's poetry echoes, and is echoed by, other texts, The Figure of Echo also explores Spenser and other Renaissance writers; romantic poets such as Keats, Shelley, and Wordsworth; and modern poets including Hardy, Eliot, Stevens, Frost, Williams, and Hart Crane. This book has implications for literary theory and holds great practical interest for students and teachers of American and English literature of all periods.
