Read FICTION books online

Reading books fiction Have you ever thought about what fiction is? Probably, such a question may seem surprising: and so everything is clear. Every person throughout his life has to repeatedly create the works he needs for specific purposes - statements, autobiographies, dictations - using not gypsum or clay, not musical notes, not paints, but just a word. At the same time, almost every person will be very surprised if he is told that he thereby created a work of fiction, which is very different from visual art, music and sculpture making. However, everyone understands that a student's essay or dictation is fundamentally different from novels, short stories, news that are created by professional writers. In the works of professionals there is the most important difference - excogitation. But, oddly enough, in a school literature course, you don’t realize the full power of fiction.

Italics are not available in plain ASCII.

I did not modify:

- The printed book sometimes uses the spelling “despatch”, other times “dispatch”. Also, both “intrenchments” and “entrenchments”. - Chapter 12, page 245, “grewsome” - There are a number of instances where the use of the comma in the printed book seems to me inappropriate, mainly in terms of commas inserted where I would not insert them, and also sometimes commas lacking where I would provide them. However, I have adhered to the punctuation as printed (except for obvious printing errors, which are noted above). For example: The hills rolled far away southward, and under the horizon's rim. The three bade farewell to the young operator, then to almost all of Hubbard and proceeded in a trot for the pass. One day Major Hertford sent Dick, Warner, and Sergeant Whitley, ahead to scout. The two young aides carried away by success and the fire of battle, waved their swords continually and rushed at the enemy's lines. Duck River, which Buell was compelled to cross, was swollen like all the other streams of the region, by the great rains and was forty feet deep. - The author sometimes uses a technique whereby a paragraph introducing a quotation ends with a colon, with the quotation following as the next paragraph.
