The Perfumed Letter: The Fire and the Fog of WWII
Through the scorched hills of Sicily, 1943, a soldier in Company M of the 1st Division, US Seventh Army, contracts malaria in Troina just as the Allies' strategies change and the war's tempo shifts. The Perfumed Letter traces the emotional and physical moments-where battle rages, illness halts movement, letters go unanswered, and a year of silence begins. This becomes the fundamental year of training for Operation Dragoon: a stretch of time suspended between fire and fog, void of letters home, where recovery becomes its own battlefield. Through archival fidelity and sovereign storytelling, Olan L. Smith maps the unseen war behind the war-the one fought in the body, the post, and the heart.
Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy (Part 1)
Acclaimed by many as the world's greatest novel, Anna Karenina provides a vast panorama of contemporary life in Russia and of humanity in general. In it Tolstoy uses his intense imaginative insight to create some of the most memorable characters in all of literature. Anna is a sophisticated woman who abandons her empty existence as the wife of Karenin and turns to Count Vronsky to fulfil her passionate nature - with tragic consequences. Levin is a reflection of Tolstoy himself, often expressing the author's own views and convictions. Throughout, Tolstoy points no moral, merely inviting us not to judge but to watch. As Rosemary Edmonds comments, 'He leaves the shifting patterns of the kaleidoscope to bring home the meaning of the brooding words following the title, 'Vengeance is mine, and I will repay. NOTE: Because there can only be two hundred parts, I had to split to two books on Wattpad)Concluida
Winter's Lies
Bound together by circumstance, they flee across a country that no longer recognizes them. Through burning mansions and frozen forests, through whispered secrets and stolen kisses, through a war that devours everything in its path, they discover a truth more dangerous than any revolution: Some loves are worth dying for. Others are worth living for. But in a world where loyalty is measured in blood and betrayal is the only currency, can love truly survive? Or will it become just another casualty of a war that has already claimed everything. From the ashes of the old world, love found its way.
Chasing Colours
"Mein Kampf. My struggle. It is different for everyone, is it not? I just didn't want to see the world from someone else's point of view. I have my own story, so do you and so does everyone. These white pages are for me to write my story" --- x --- x---- Two young hearts in love. The propaganda that questioned humanity. A war that divided the world. The pages of history that sullied the soil. A tale was spun when Germany entered a new era with Adolf Hitler. With that tale happened the forbidden story of two young Germans in love, an Aryan and a Jew. As the world was thrown into the chaos of the Second World War and the Holocaust, new horrors unfolded in the peaceful lives of the young lovers. Death and despair that was tested with the strength of a smile or two.Concluida
ANIMAL FARM (Completed)
Animal Farm is an allegorical novella by George Orwell, first published in England on 17 August 1945. According to Orwell, the book reflects events leading up to the Russian Revolution of 1917 and then on into the Stalinist era of the Soviet Union. Orwell wrote the book between November 1943 and February 1944, when the UK was in its wartime alliance with the Soviet Union and the British people and intelligentsia held Stalin in high esteem. It became a great commercial success when it did appear partly because international relations were transformed as the wartime alliance gave way to the Cold War. Time magazine chose the book as one of the 100 best English-language novels (1923 to 2005). It also featured at number 31 on the Modern Library List of Best 20th-Century Novels. It won a Retrospective Hugo Award in 1996, and is included in the Great Books of the Western World selection.Concluida
The Unknown Guardian
It had been many years since Perseus Jackson, the Saviour of Olympus, had been sentenced to death. The life at Camp Half-Blood went on as usual, and the Immortal Heroes passed on their techniques to the younger generation. But what will happen when Artemis and her Hunters face imminent danger? What will happen when Artemis summons a brave Guardian to protect them? And what will happen when that Guardian just happens to be the one and only Perseus Jackson? Must have read the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, and the Heroes of Olympus series to understand this story. Book 1 of the UNKNOWN series. ~CSP2708~ *Dylan_Walts*Concluida
Anna Karenina
"Anna Karenina" is the tragedy of married aristocrat and socialite Anna Karenina and her affair with the affluent Count Vronsky. The story starts when she arrives in the midst of a family broken up by her brother's unbridled womanizing—something that prefigures her own later situation, though with less tolerance for her by others.Concluida
Remember (A Percy Jackson Fanfic)
After losing the one closest to him, he disappears for quite a long time. Another war is coming. Against an enemy that was never seen before. A war that will decide the fate of the whole world. A war that would make the previous ones look like a birthday party. Who is the enemy? Who is the one that seeks to eradicate Olympus? More importantly, who will stop them? This is not like any of the other Guardian of the Hunt stories. I've tried to include some twists and different things in this to make it unique. This is NOT a Chaos story. This is not a story where Percy is an overpowered being that can squash Zeus in a second. He is just a normal demigod with the blessing of ONE Olympian. I don't own PJO/HoO. Rick Riordan does. I only own the storyline, plot and any original characters.Concluida
