The symbolism that Benjaman Hoff uses with the Pooh characters to learn a very difficult philosophy amazes me!

I think the story is called "Yellow Woman". It's very beautiful about a woman that has an affair with a spirit. I'm looking for the story, does anybody know a site where I can read this story again? I tried looking but didn't find any.

Oh, the author's name is Leslie Marmon Silko. And if you can find me the actual short story Brokeback Mountain, I'd love you to pieces. Thanks guys!

I'm a girl. Hopefully you know what kind of books are for girls. Um, no science, stuff like that. Just real drama and problems that girls have in life. I love reading about that. And romance, too. Thanks. =]

I would love to come here for real discussion of books and literature, not be someone's online Cliff Notes. Do you ever feel like you're writing someone's term paper for them?

Why did chapter four appear in the book? My teacher said it had huge significance. what I have deducted is that all the people who convened in Crooks's bunk were disabled in some way and that has to do with America during the depression or something.

In my new book, the heroine (Albeit a fallen woman) has moved on from blokes taking off her drawers and burning a hole in the appropriate place in her tights with a roll-up, to Knights of the Realm melting the entrance to her favours with a Romeo and Juliet cigar. Partner No/ 2 who fancies himself as a literary critic can't see a progression eben though I have specified the change of denier.

Everyone, what kind of story that you prefer the most when you're about to read a novel. Is it love story? Tragedy? Fantasy? Mystery? Happy ending? Sad Ending?
And do you have any story to share?

most schools require students to read "old" texts like ancient greek tragedies or shakespearean plays. many students wonder why they should read those texts instead of more contemporary materials. i think its better to read them than the present. but why?? help!

What is her name and what is the name of the book? She was an older single woman perhaps living in Texas. Perhaps she was a newspaper columnist. Her brother and sister-in-law were killed tragically and she took in their children to raise. I loved the book and now I can't remember the name. It was not Molly Ivins.

I have a lot of books from when I was younger that I have outgrown and some that I just don't want anymore. I want to get rid of them but I don't want to just throw them away. Does anybody know of a good place that would take them?

When I was a kid I had a series of 3 or 4 books all with a cassette tape you could follow along with. The main character in each book was an animal. The one I remember best was about a dog that had to collect feathers for a pillow and put them in a wheel-barrow to take somewhere...anyway...the moral of the story was "haste makes waste" because he ran so fast with the feathers they all flew out, and he had to collect them all over again. I also remember the covers being pastel colors. Periwinkle...sea foam..light pink.

I like time travel, distant future, post-apocolyptic survial (like the movie The Postman),and plausible story lines. I like S.M. Stirling's books, Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series, and Karen Marie Moning's Highlander Series.
I don't like gun-porn (where the guns are lovingly written about in minute detail) non-stop fighting, gratuitious killing or stories that take place 3000 in the future on an alien planet.
