This life wasn't the one she dreamed of, but happily ever afters don't always come when and how we expect.At twenty-nine, Jeanette Williams has watched each one of her four sisters marry and start families of their own. It's hard not to believe God has forgotten the desires of her heart, especially when most people refer to her as Spinster Williams. Without the beautiful children she teaches, life would be unbearably lonely.When the handsome widower, Theo Wallace, and his six children move into the Shenandoah Valley, every available woman is atwitter-except for Jeanette. She has no such aspirations that someone as plain as her could draw even a smattering of interest.As life throws this unlikely couple together, Jeanette can't help but fall in love with Theo's children and their soul-wrenching plight. Before she knows it, her heart is far more invested than she could've ever imagined. And not just with the children, but with their handsome father as well. Is she headed for another heartbreak, or is it possible God had a beautiful plan in the works all along?

Jeanette Varberg er et af de mennesker i verden, der ved allermest om vikingetiden. Med stor indlevelse springer Varberg i vikingeskibet og tager os med på plyndringstogter, opdagelsesrejser og handelsture over det meste af verden. Vikingerne var ganske vist kendt og frygtet for at hærge og røve i England og Frankerriget, men de ville også opleve verden og opdagede Grønland, rejste til Amerika mange år før Columbus og har efterladt graffiti helt i Istanbul. Vi lærer store personligheder som Erik den Røde, Leif den Lykkelige og Knud den Store at kende og hører om skjoldmure, danegæld, bersærkergang, trælle, vølver og meget mere.

Part of the Encore Film Book Classics series, this is a reprint of the original text to The Jeanette MacDonald Story by James Robert Parish.Billed as "The girl with the red-gold hair and sea-green eyes" on Broadway, and known as the "Iron Butterfly" in Hollywood, legendary singer/actress Jeanette MacDonald (1903-1965) is revealed here as a warm, irrepressible person with a surprisingly whimsical sense of humor. Born in Philadelphia, her stage career began when she was a youngster; later she performed in vaudeville and left high school in order to appear in the Demi-Tasse Revue. An indefatigable worker, this world-famous soprano/actress never stopped performing unless she was too ill to go on. For those who wondered why she worked so hard she explained, "The minute you let yourself ride along on the wave just because people around you are telling you how wonderful you are, you're sunk."One of Hollywood's superstars of the 1930s, she worked oncamera with Clark Gable and Spencer Tracy (San Francisco), Maurice Chevalier (The Love Parade, One Hour with You, The Merry Widow), and Nelson Eddy, with whom she reached the pinnacle of movie success in such classic cinema vehicles as Naughty Mariette, Rose-Marie, Maytime, and Sweethearts.Here is the real Jeanette MacDonald, a supertalent who enjoyed a long marriage to screen star Gene Raymond. She emerges from behind the legend in anecdotes and stories retold by those who knew her, respected her, and loved her. This IS The Jeanette MacDonald Story.

Orlando: Introduction by Jeanette Winterson

Orlando: Introduction by Jeanette Winterson

Virginia Woolf

Everyman's Library
2024
sidottu
A Contemporary Classics hardcover edition of Virginia Woolf's fantastical novel about an Elizabethan nobleman who lives for three centuries and transitions into a woman. With a new introduction by Jeanette Winterson. Woolf's most lighthearted novel is a playful and exuberant romp through history. As a teenage nobleman, Orlando spends his days in revelry at the colorful Tudor court of Queen Elizabeth and his nights in writing earnest poetry. A favorite of the elderly queen, he falls in love with and is jilted by a wayward Russian princess. Two kings later, having reached his thirties, Orlando is sent to serve as ambassador to Constantinople, where he awakens one day to find himself in the body of a woman. The Lady Orlando takes this circumstance in stride and returns to England, where she engages in love affairs with both men and women, consorts with the famous poets of each age, finds happiness with an unconventional husband, and at last achieves publication of her own epic poem in the year 1928, the same year that Woolf published her novel. With its blend of fantastical adventure and satirical wit, Orlando was an immediate popular and critical success, one whose status as a classic has only grown with time. Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket. Contemporary Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author's life and times.

Nelson and Jeanette

Nelson and Jeanette

Nelson Eddy was a tall, handsome baritone from the opera and concert stage.Jeanette MacDonald was a beautiful redhead, a soprano who began her career in a Broadway chorus, then was drafted to Hollywood when the movies started to "talk" and sing.Together at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, they were "America's Singing Sweethearts," starring in a series of classic musicals that endeared them to audiences during the 1930s and decades beyond. NAUGHTY MARIETTA, ROSE MARIE, MAYTIME, SWEETHEARTS and NEW MOON are among the films that their legions of fans enjoy to this day.Off-screen, however, the MacDonald/Eddy relationship was not always as amiable as their public might have fantasized. Rumors persisted of their on-set quarrels, as well as a torrid romance, even though both would marry others.NELSON AND JEANETTE, Michael B. Druxman's two-character stage play, takes an affectionate, insightful look at the two beloved stars, joining them in the early 1960s, as they think back on their careers, struggling to decide whether they should work together in one last film. They reminisce about the good times and the bad, recalling Louis B. Mayer, Clark Gable, Maurice Chevalier, Allan Jones, John Barrymore and others, as they sing the songs for which they're warmly remembered
