Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vivid, unforgettable story of an unlikely sisterhood—an emotionally powerful and haunting tale of friendship that illuminates the plight of women in a traditional culture—from the author of the bestselling The Pearl That Broke Its Shell and When the Moon Is Low. For two decades, Zeba was a loving wife, a patient mother, and a peaceful villager. But her quiet life is shattered when her husband, Kamal, is found brutally murdered with a hatchet in the courtyard of their home. Nearly catatonic with shock, Zeba is unable to account for her whereabouts at the time of his death. Her children swear their mother could not have committed such a heinous act. Kamal’s family is sure she did, and demands justice. Barely escaping a vengeful mob, Zeba is arrested and jailed. As Zeba awaits trial, she meets a group of women whose own misfortunes have also led them to these bleak cells: thirty-year-old Nafisa, imprisoned to protect her from an honor killing; twenty-five-year-old Latifa, who ran away from home with her teenage sister but now stays in the prison because it is safe shelter; and nineteen-year-old Mezhgan, pregnant and unmarried, waiting for her lover’s family to ask for her hand in marriage. Is Zeba a cold-blooded killer, these young women wonder, or has she been imprisoned, as they have been, for breaking some social rule? For these women, the prison is both a haven and a punishment. Removed from the harsh and unforgiving world outside, they form a lively and indelible sisterhood. Into this closed world comes Yusuf, Zeba’s Afghan-born, American-raised lawyer, whose commitment to human rights and desire to help his motherland have brought him back. With the fate of this seemingly ordinary housewife in his hands, Yusuf discovers that, like Afghanistan itself, his client may not be at all what he imagines. A moving look at the lives of modern Afghan women, A House Without Windows is astonishing, frightening, and triumphant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harper Leigh Reynolds Being the eldest by forty-five seconds I always know what's best, but Leigh NEVER listens. She's in Stress Mode: fluffy pink robe, wringing hands, and pacing. It might be my fault that the spirits escaped from the crystals, but shouldn't identical twins share blame JUST BECAUSE? I have more pressing matters to focus on, namely Jeremy. Leigh doesn't understand that dating the captain of the Prep Pirates is a full time job. I'm late for detention, aka Academy of the Sacred Names Penal Colony, so we'll have to fret about Father, Eloise and the crystals later. What a bowl of jellybeans! Leigh Harper Reynolds Eloise Winthrop is the most hostile ghost in the history of Oceania, Maryland. Mother's school is on the former Winthrop estate and Eloise is furious that children with magical, and often creepy talents roam her halls. Chatting with the murdered Mrs. Winthrop is low on my "To Do List" when we have mysteries to unravel. How did Father go missing? Did Harp correctly interpret the incantation to trap spirits? I doubt it. I'm sure she was daydreaming about a new skateboard and said something TERRIBLY wrong. So much for those RIDICULOUS forty-five seconds!

This book was released on 2006-01-27 with total page 647 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural Language is not only the most important means of communication between human beings, it is also used over historical periods for the pres- vation of cultural achievements and their transmission from one generation to the other. During the last few decades, the ?ood of digitalized information has been growing tremendously. This tendency will continue with the globali- tion of information societies and with the growing importance of national and international computer networks. This is one reason why the theoretical und- standing and the automated treatment of communication processes based on natural language have such a decisive social and economic impact. In this c- text, the semantic representation of knowledge originally formulated in natural language plays a central part, because it connects all components of natural language processing systems, be they the automatic understanding of natural language (analysis), the rational reasoning over knowledge bases, or the g- eration of natural language expressions from formal representations. This book presents a method for the semantic representation of natural l- guage expressions (texts, sentences, phrases, etc. ) which can be used as a u- versal knowledge representation paradigm in the human sciences, like lingu- tics, cognitive psychology, or philosophy of language, as well as in com- tational linguistics and in arti?cial intelligence. It is also an attempt to close the gap between these disciplines, which to a large extent are still working separately.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reminiscences examines the growth and life of a young African American boy coming of age in the second half of the twentieth century. Jamarius Russell is the main protagonist, and he informs the reader of events and circumstances that affected him as his family as the years rolled by. As he reflects and looks back on his years and those of his family, his grandparents and his ancestors from a previous time and place. This is an American novel about America and about its history. It is a story about a group of people, over generations, facing critical moments in their lives and their history. Reminiscences has a cinematic quality to it as the years pass by as Jamarius Russell, Lee Somersom Russell and Eloise Sudey, the elderly senior citizen, tell a tale of woe and hope, of aspiration and disappointment and of life and death. Remiscences is a story readers would enjoy because the reader gets to experience and live what the characters live.

Download or read book Musical Improvisation written by Gabriel Solis and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A musical practice used for centuries the world over, improvisation too often has been neglected by scholars who dismiss it as either technically undissectible or inexplicably mysterious. At different times and in different cultures, performing music that is not "precomposed" has constituted an artful expression of the performer's individuality (the Baroque); a wild, unthinking form of expression (jazz antagonists); and the best method to train inexperienced musicians to use their instruments (the Middle East). This wide-ranging collection of essays considers musical improvisation from a variety of approaches, including ethnomusicology, education, performance, historical musicology, and music theory. Laying the groundwork for even further research into improvisation, the contributors of this volume delve into topics as diverse as the creative minds of Mozart and Beethoven, the place of improvised musics in Western and non-Western societies, and the development of jazz as a musical and cultural phenomenon.

Download or read book Sarah Caldwell written by Daniel Kessler and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2008-07-31 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sarah Caldwell: The First Woman of Opera is the first biography of this significant musician, conductor, and director and documents Ms. Caldwell's genius as an indomitable force for opera in America. Caldwell mounted many U.S. premieres and brought rare editions of standard works to her audiences. At the height of her career, she raised her baton over four of the top five orchestras, including the New York Philharmonic and the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and conducted orchestras in such cities as Pittsburgh, St. Louis, San Antonio, Atlanta, Mexico City, and Puerto Rico. She conducted ensembles in Canada, Sweden, South Africa, and Russia; was a musical director for Wolf Trap; and was the first woman to conduct at the Metropolitan Opera. She founded the renowned Opera Company of Boston, as well as the outreach effort Opera New England and a nation-wide touring enterprise, the American National Opera Company. Caldwell's undeniable zeal was evident in whatever she undertook, and her accomplishments invite reflection, showing what an opera company could and should be in America. Daniel Kessler presents Ms. Caldwell's life in flashbacks and explores her 1978 landmark production of Gaetano Donizetti's Don Pasquale, which serves as a prime example of how she engaged with her creative Muse. He describes her personal and professional life, including her experience with the impresario Boris Goldovsky, her ability to create her own brand of 'stage wizardry,' and her moments of overreaching and hubris, such as her unorthodox fundraising methods and her experience with Imelda Marcos. Complete with several illustrations, a bibliography, an index, and the comprehensive annals of her three opera companies, Sarah Caldwell demonstrates what one person of genius, imagination, and passion can accomplish single-handedly.

Download or read book Converse with God Personally written by Tangia Lin Fu Jing Lin and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-03-08 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up, children and teenagers have parents to protect and guide, but many become rebellious against parents and societal rules. At adulthood, many are lost in who or what to trust; most rely on immature feelings or judgment to make major life decisions. Consequently, many lives drift from one predicament to another, and most do not know why they keep encountering similar failures. From youth to old age, people need God to be at side to help make major life decisions, to choose a soul mate or partner, and to grow spirituality. Specifically, God can help to mend character flaws, boost merits, and improve personal judgment. This is the first book to guide people in receiving God's consent to communicate with him directly and some basics of such communication. Faith or religion not required to communicate.

Download or read book Black Paper written by Teju Cole and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2023-01-05 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A profound book of essays from a celebrated master of the form. “Darkness is not empty,” writes Teju Cole in Black Paper, a book that meditates on what it means to sustain our humanity—and witness the humanity of others—in a time of darkness. One of the most celebrated essayists of his generation, Cole here plays variations on the essay form, modeling ways to attend to experience—not just to take in but to think critically about what we sense and what we don’t. Wide-ranging but thematically unified, the essays address ethical questions about what it means to be human and what it means to bear witness, recognizing how our individual present is informed by a collective past. Cole’s writings in Black Paper approach the fractured moment of our history through a constellation of interrelated concerns: confrontation with unsettling art, elegies both public and private, the defense of writing in a time of political upheaval, the role of the color black in the visual arts, the use of shadow in photography, and the links between literature and activism. Throughout, Cole gives us intriguing new ways of thinking about blackness and its numerous connotations. As he describes the carbon-copy process in his epilogue: “Writing on the top white sheet would transfer the carbon from the black paper onto the bottom white sheet. Black transported the meaning.”
