Indian Summer (version 2) by William Dean Howells Loyal Books Set in Florence's Anglo-American colony in the late 19th century, this is a romantic story of a middle-aged man, returning to the scene of his first but disappointed love twenty years earlier. The doings of Americans abroad were staples of the fictions of Henry James and Edith Wharton, but Howells’s view is rather different. As John Updike has said of it, “the felicity of the writing makes us pause in admiration….A midlife crisis has rarely been sketched in fiction with better humor, with gentler comedy and more gracious acceptance of life’s irrevocability.” ( Nicholas Clifford) Indian Summer by William Wilfred Campbell (1860 - 1918) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 16 recordings of Indian Summer by William Wilfred Campbell.This was the Weekly Poetry project for October 3, 2021. ------This wonderful poem by William Wilfred Campbell captures the essence of a Canadian Autumn - its sights, smells and sounds - and brings to life the beauty of a land displaying unsurpassed splendor while facing the inevitability of the first of many blankets of snow. - Summary by BruceK Henry V William Shakespeare After the turmoil and uncertainty of Henry IV a new era appears to dawn for England with the accession of the eponymous Henry V. In this sunny pageant Chorus guides us along Henry's glittering carpet ride of success as the new king completes his transformation from rebellious wastrel to a truly regal potentate. Of course, there is an underlying feeling that the good times won't last, and this is all the more reason to enjoy the Indian summer before the protracted and bitter fall of the house of Lancaster.

Ambedkar - Ideal of modern India Subhash Chaudhary Dr. B. R. Ambedkar - Ideal of modern India - By Ramdutt Chakradhar JiiDr. Babasaheb Ambedkar and Dr. Hedgewar ( founder of RSS ) met at Bhausaheb Gadkari’s home in Pune. Sri Bhausaheb Abhyankar took all of us (including Balasaheb Salunke ) to the summer camp. Dr. Ambedkar addressed the swayamsevaks on military discipline and organisation. The above material is sufficient to prove that sites like velivada have only one agenda – to work towards create a divide among Hindus. We only hope that Sri Balasaheb Salunke , a member of the Scheduled Caste, a close associate of Babasaheb Ambedkar, a Member of Parliament is not dismissed as another Sanghi , just because he wrote the truth.
