Yellow Star: China News Yellow Star I try to choose the best news articles on China and discuss them with some comparison to events in Europe/USA. Yellow by Coldplay Cover by Jonah Marias, Jack Avery, Daniel Seavey Zoe Armendariz Original Sound on @whydontwemusic on tiktok Yellow Butterflies by Mary Raymond Shipman Andrews (1860 - 1936) LibriVox The title of this historical fiction could as well have been "A Soldier’s Mother" or “An Unknown Soldier”. There are indeed butterflies, and there is a small boy who grows into a fine, strapping young man who goes to war. But this moving novella centers squarely on the young man's mother, her love for him and her abiding faith. (Summary by Lee Smalley) Crome Yellow by Aldous Huxley (1894 - 1963) LibriVox Crome Yellow, published in 1921 was Aldous Huxley’s first novel. In it he satirizes the fads and fashions of the time. It is the witty story of a house party at ‘Crome’ where there is a gathering of bright young things. We hear some of the history of the house from Henry Wimbush, its owner and self appointed historian; Apocalypse is prophesied, virginity is lost, and inspirational aphorisms are gained in a trance. Our hero, Denis, tries to capture it all in poetry and is disappointed in love.The author, Aldous Huxley, was born in 1894 and began writing poetry and short stories in his early twenties; this was his first novel and established his literary reputation.
