When man becomes really mature, he again becomes childlike. His efforts chasing butterflies won’t lead him anywhere, because he is going nowhere. A child’s actions don’t have any meaning or goal. It is absolutely purposeless just like a small child. In India, we don’t term the life of Krishna as character (charitra), we call it Krishna’s Leela, his play. Osho says Krishna is the perfect man if fun is the sign of a perfect man. The choice of phrase is tremendously significant. The Hindu scriptures term the life of Krishna as ‘ Krishna Leela’ – the play of Krishna.

Russell does a fantastic job of keeping the book about Catherine. ![]() With that said, I didn’t find that at all with Young and Damned and Fair. So, usually these biographies become books about the people in the queen’s life and not the queen herself. Book Synopsis Written with an exciting combination of narrative flair and historical authority, this biography of Henry VIIIs fifth wife, Catherine Howard. Surprising revelations abound in this audio biography of Catherine Howard, the fifth wife of Henry VIII, including a recently discovered confession of. Most biographies of the wives of Henry VIII run into a common problem: the details known about the woman are few but the events related to the men close to her are plenty. Russell’s writing style keeps things entertaining while packing in as many interesting facts as possible. The author gives some very persuasive arguments about his findings regarding some details of Catherine’s life that I’d never read previously. ![]() Russell digs further into Catherine’s short and tragic life while weaving in everyday details of Tudor England inside and outside the royal court. ![]() Published in April 2017, Young and Damned and Fair: The Life of Catherine Howard, Fifth Wife of King Henry VIII by Gareth Russell is a worthwhile addition to your Tudor history bookshelf. ![]() 5/22/2023 0 Comments Prosperity by Alexis Hall![]() ![]() This Greek Revival addition, with its lovely front porch and circular attic window, and a Victorian style rehabilitation twenty years later, significantly improved the property. The Bodine House passed through a number of owners before it was expanded in the 1850s and named "Sunnyside" by George Knapp, a New Brunswick businessman. The busy commercial center survived numerous British incursions and several battles during the Revolutionary War, thriving until the early 19th century when it was overshadowed by New Brunswick, a boom town and county seat, boasting an interstate canal and railroad connection on the southwest side of the river. Peter Bodine was a leading merchant at Raritan Landing, one of the nation's earliest river-ports, located in the large 1666 land grant called "Piscataway." His small one room home, with sleeping loft and root cellar, was built in 1728 on a bluff along "The Great Road Up the Raritan" (today's River Road), about 1/4 mile from his warehouse. ![]() ![]() The older of only two remaining homes from the Colonial era New Jersey community, Raritan Landing ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Decline and Fall was published in 1928 to great critical acclaim and his second novel Vile Bodies, published two years later, was received even more enthusiastically.

Waugh was educated at Lancing and went up to Hertford College, Oxford in January 1922. “If it could only be like this always – always summer, always alone, the fruit always ripe and Aloysius in a good temper.” ![]() |
