The Golden Feathers History from a Bird's-Eye View【電子書籍】[ Khalil N. Wanna ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>As a day ends and the horizon transforms into a dark crimson hue, a mother pigeon tells her children a bedtime story that she hopes will not only make them sleepy, but will also prepare them for life. In her mind, stories are the best way to encourage her chicks to metaphorically fly, before they technically spread their wings. As her tale of good versus evil concludes, Mother Sue kisses her birdies goodnight with the hope they will all live a good life. But the general mood within the cage is bleak amid the uncertainty that hangs over them like a dark cloud. As the king they serve heartlessly plots within his hall, not far from the room in which they and their beloved caretaker, Francis, reside, it is not long before he delivers a fiery speech that prompts Francis to wake the pigeons, open their cage, strap an anonymous letter to one of the birds, and release him into the wild. But as the birds continue their important missions of delivering messages, they cannot help but begin questioning their roles in the lives of humans seemingly intent on committing more atrocities. In this fairy tale, a family of feathered messengers attempts to fulfill their important purpose while serving an evil king.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Blue Bird for Children: The Wonderful Adventures of Tyltyl and Mytyl in Search of Happiness【電子書籍】[ Maurice Maeterlinck ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This School Edition of The Blue Bird for Children is affectionately dedicated to the School Children of America To The Teacher "The Blue Bird, inhabitant of the Pays Bleu, the fabulous blue country of our dreams is an ancient symbol in the folk lore of Lorraine and stands for happiness." Amidst his Belgian roses he continued to work and dream, and upon his youthful dreams he built his plays. They are all shadowy, brief transcripts of emotion, and illustrate beautifully his unity of purpose, of mood and of thought. Whether in philosophy, drama or poetry, Maeterlinck is exclusively occupied in revealing or indicating the mystery which lies only just out of sight beneath the ordinary life. In order to produce this effect of the mysterious he aims at extreme simplicity of style and a very realistic symbolism. He allows life itself to astonish us by its strangeness, by its inexplicable elements. Many of his plays are really pathetic records of unseen emotions. Of all his writings, it is conceded that "The Blue Bird" makes the strongest appeal to children. Maeterlinck has always had much in common with the young. He has the child's mysticism and awe of the unknown, the same delight in mechanical inventions, the same gift of "making believe</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Eye of the Bird【電子書籍】[ Siddhant Gvalani ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>After the euphoria of meeting Erno Rubik, the inventor of the Rubik’s cube, the protagonist becomes captivated by the idea of finding symmetry in his life, much like he finds in the cube. What begins as fascination gradually intensifies into obsession, driving him to seek symmetry in everything he does: from personal relationships to an intricate mathematical equation that he believes holds the key to understanding his life’s biggest mystery. He becomes fixated on solving the equation, which, if balanced perfectly, could redefine humanity’s understanding of its place in the universe.</p> <p>However, this uncompromising demand for flawlessness begins to unravel its true self. The protagonist’s relationships start to fracture, and he loses sight of the things that once mattered to him.</p> <p>At his lowest point, the protagonist comes across an epiphany, left to him by his mentor, where the cryptic phrase “Eye of the Bird” is inscribed. To find peace, he must uncover the significance of these words and determine whether his pursuit of symmetry is worth the cost or if embracing life’s inherent chaos is the path to his salvation.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Bird Songs Don't Lie Writings from the Rez【電子書籍】[ Gordon Lee Johnson ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>In this collection of essays and short stories, the Native American author explores reservation life through a range of genres and perspectives.</strong><br /> In this moving collection, Gordon Lee Johnson (Cupe?o/Cahuilla) distinguishes himself not only as a wry commentator on American Indian reservation life but also as a master of fiction writing. In Johnson's stories, all of which are set on the fictional San Ignacio reservation in Southern California, we meet unforgettable characters like Plato Pena, the Stanford-bound geek who reads Kahlil Gibran during intertribal softball games; hardboiled investigator Roddy Foo; and Etta, whose motto is "early to bed, early to rise, work like hell, and advertise," as they face down circumstances by turns ordinary and devastating.<br /> The nonfiction featured in <em>Bird Songs Don't Lie</em> is equally revelatory in its exploration of complex connections between past and present. Whether examining his own conflicted feelings toward the missions as a source of both cultural damage and identity or sharing advice for cooking for eight dozen cowboys and -girls, Johnson plumbs the comedy, catastrophe, and beauty of his life on the Pala Reservation to thunderous effect.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

When an argument between Brown and Henry's master turns violent, Henry is forced to leave town--along with Brown, who believes Henry to be a girl and his good luck charm. Over the ensuing months, Henry, whom Brown nicknames Little Onion, conceals his true identity to stay alive. Eventually Brown sweeps him into the historic raid on Harpers Ferry in 1859--one of the great catalysts for the Civil War. An absorbing mixture of history and imagination, and told with McBride's meticulous eye for detail and character, The Good Lord Bird is both a rousing adventure and a moving exploration of identity and survival.

<p>In 1673 the first European explorers to travel down the Mississippi River spot on the high, sheer bluffs the painting of a huge, winged monster.

The Indians told them the terrifying story of a man-eating dragon-like creature, and the brave chief who killed it.</p> <p>This historical, Native American dragon fantasy short story previously published in FANTASTIC December 1975, and unavailable since then, until now.</p> <p>We know dragon stories and legends from Europe and Asia go back thousands of years. Did some such creature prey on people just north of modern-day St. Louis? A dragon in North America?</p> <p>The French explorers Pere Marquette and Joliet paddle their canoes down the Father of Waters, the first Europeans to journey through the middle of the newly discovered continent of North America.</p> <p>They spot the painting.</p> <p>Why did some unnamed Indian artist risk their life to create it? The perpendicular bluffs rise up from the river hundreds of feet high. Other Indians must have lowered the artist on a rope from the top, and the artist dangled above the rocks of the rivershore as they worked.</p> <p>Canoes of Indian warriors pass the explorers on the river. As they pass the painting of the dragon-like, flying monster, they shoot arrows at the Indian dragon.</p> <p>A certain loss of good arrows, because they break or bounce off the white limestone rock of the bluff and fall into the river.</p> <p>What frightens the Indians so much?</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>Johnny Jewel works as a cowboy but his ambition is to be an aviator and he spends much of his time studying and dreaming about flying. Johnny learns of a damaged plane abandoned in the desert on the Mexican side of the border, and comes up with a plan to put it to work. His affairs are being monitored by Mary V, the ranch owner's spunky daughter, who is slowly taking interest in Johnny. But in the meantime, a gang of rustlers are taking advantage of his passion for flying in order to distract him from his job of keeping an eye over the ranch's horses. The Thunder Bird is a sequel of Johnny Jewel's story and it looks like our heroes didn't learn their lessons, as Johnny seems more stubborn and Mary V more spoiled. Johnny is determined to pay his debt before going back to the ranch and to Mary V, but this time his affairs take a foray into an international intrigue. Bertha Muzzy Bower (1871-1940) was an American author who wrote novels and short stories about the American Old West. She is best known for her first novel "Chip of the Flying U" about Flying U Ranch and the "Happy Family" of cowboys who lived there. The novel rocketed Bower to fame, and she wrote an entire series of novels set at the Flying U Ranch.
