Book excerpt: “I wrote this book not to dismiss a rumor but to share something much more important: my journey to forgiveness.” Chiquis Rivera is a singer and the daughter of the late music superstar Jenni Rivera. In Forgiveness, her memoir, Chiquis bravely reveals the abuse she suffered at the hands of her father during her childhood and the difficulties she’s faced in her personal life as a result. Despite growing up marked by the wounds of abuse, she eventually conquered her fear of love andintimacy. The story within these pages also recounts what caused the distance between her and her mother toward the end of Jenni’s life. In Forgiveness, Chiquis brings to light truths that she wishes she had been able to reveal to Jenni. Two years after her mother’s death, Chiquis answers the most difficult questions: Was she able to make peace with Jenni? And in this story of triumph and tragedy, who is most in need of forgiveness?

This book was released on 2007-10-02 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of the Latin American testimonio, this is the story of Juan Rivera, a.k.a. Juanito Xtravaganza, a Latino runaway youth who ends up homeless in the streets of New York in the late 70s and becomes partner of the internationally famous 1980s Pop artist Keith Haring during some of the most frenetically productive years of his brief life, as told to the author and retold by him. A hybrid text - part testimonio, part linguistic and cultural analysis, and part art criticism - this is also a history of New York Latino neighborhoods during this period of devastating disinvestment and gentrification, as well as a personal, heart-felt meditation on the art of listening and the ethical limits of representing queer Latino lives.

Only, she's not so closeted anymore. Not after coming out to her family the night before flying to Portland, Oregon, to intern with her favorite feminist writer--what's sure to be a life-changing experience. And when Juliet's coming out crashes and burns, she's not sure her mom will ever speak to her again. But Juliet has a plan--sort of. Her internship with legendary author Harlowe Brisbane, the ultimate authority on feminism, women's bodies, and other gay-sounding stuff, is sure to help her figure out this whole "Puerto Rican lesbian" thing. Except Harlowe's white. And not from the Bronx. And she definitely doesn't have all the answers . . . In a summer bursting with queer brown dance parties, a sexy fling with a motorcycling librarian, and intense explorations of race and identity, Juliet learns what it means to come out--to the world, to her family, to herself.

His father died trying to keep them imprisoned. Now, the family must readjust to life in the real world. Their ordeal has made them so famous, they must stay in hiding—everyone from fatalists preparing for doomsday to the tabloid media wants a piece of them. Even worse, their father's former adviser continues to control the company Eli and his twin brother are the heirs of. As Eli tries to determine who the family can trust, he learns the nightmare of the Compound—and his father's experiment—might not be over. The Fallout is S.A. Bodeen's highly anticipated, thrilling sequel that will keep readers on the edge of their seats.

Book excerpt: A Crazy LifeBy: Laura Lucio Anecdotes and conversations with my friend Jenni RiveraA Crazy Life, by Laura Lucio, Anecdotes and Conversations with my friend Jenni Rivera is a story about two strong women planning and conspiring to break through and succeed in the male dominated world of Regional Mexican Music. This book focuses on the planning behind the scenes that help turn Jenni Rivera into a high grossing superstar and about the process in converting the Jenni Rivera name into a 'brand.'"I gave her pep talks, and kept her focused on her singing career for there were many distractions, says Television Producer and Author, Laura Lucio. "Throughout my television career as a news correspondent and producer, I made important friendships and contacts that helped support the music career of my friend Jenni. Just as I had foreseen and told her in 2005, when I worked on a plan to launch her music promotion and publicity in the U.S. and Mexico, Jenni Rivera would become the highest grossing female artist of her time and one of the highest paid in her genre. She sold over 20 million albums while alive and still counting," says book author Laura Lucio. There have been many books and television series released about Jenni Rivera; however Laura Lucio was the only one Jenni authorized to tell her story. What is special about this book and of great interest to her fans are Laura's personal conversations with Jenni throughout the nine (9) years that she guided, produced and assessed Jenni Rivera's career moves. Jenni tells Laura about her dreams, her doubts, her fears as well as what moved her and was dear to her heart. The book touches on Jenni's love life and how even in the hardest of times, through careful design Jenni's image remains intact. Events like the tragic days she lived in court while her first husband who had been at large for 10 years was finally convicted of sexually abusing their two daughters and Jenni's sister, the very public divorce from her second husband, the events when she dated a a musician from her band whom she felt betrayed her when a sex video tape of the two of them lands in the hands of the media in 2008. Her passion for a man from the barrio who was experimenting with drugs drives Jenni into a tumultuous rollercoaster ride as she spends much time and energy trying to help him. No matter her challenges with men Jenni never gives up on LOVE. After meeting at one of Jenn's concerts, she dates and later marries major league baseball pitcher, Esteban Loaiza in a lavish wedding on September 8th 2010 but her happiness will not last long. Jenni felt betrayed by his actions and those of a family friend that leave Jenni questioning their loyalty towards her including that of her eldest daughter. These events break Jenni's spirit to the point of depression just a few weeks before the tragic accident that took her life. "Throughout my association with Jenni, there was never a dull moment and I share as much as possible with her fans," says book author, Laura Lucio."Our friendship and work was constantly challenged by the acts of cowardly individuals who continuously worked behind our back to negatively affect our progress . Our strong willed manner would not allow that, we smiled and kept going. When Jenni decides to host a talk show for Spanish Television Network Estrella TV she requests that I executive produce it. The unfolding of the behind the scenes drama is a 'telenovela' all in itself."Facing the 'payola' practice, the lawsuits and the media during major scandals plus Jenni's search for a psychic during a crucial time in her life. This book highlights that special relationship she had with her fans. If you want to know about the behind the scenes in the music industry you'll find this book interesting. Each chapter is written like a mini episode, in Love and Light, enjoy this read.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As novelist and poet Andrei Codrescu points out in the essay that accompanies this selection of photographs from the Getty Museum's collection, Evans's photographs are the work of an artist whose temperament was distinctly at odds with Beals's impassioned rhetoric. Evans's photographs of Cuba were made by a young, still maturing artist who - as Codrescu argues - was just beginning to combine his early, formalist aesthetic with the social concerns that would figure prominently in his later work."--Jacket.

Download or read book Mummy Portraits of Roman Egypt written by Marie Svoboda and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2020-08-25 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication presents fascinating new findings on ancient Romano-Egyptian funerary portraits preserved in international collections. Once interred with mummified remains, nearly a thousand funerary portraits from Roman Egypt survive today in museums around the world, bringing viewers face-to-face with people who lived two thousand years ago. Until recently, few of these paintings had undergone in-depth study to determine by whom they were made and how. An international collaboration known as APPEAR (Ancient Panel Paintings: Examination, Analysis, and Research) was launched in 2013 to promote the study of these objects and to gather scientific and historical findings into a shared database. The first phase of the project was marked with a two-day conference at the Getty Villa. Conservators, scientists, and curators presented new research on topics such as provenance and collecting, comparisons of works across institutions, and scientific studies of pigments, binders, and supports. The papers and posters from the conference are collected in this publication, which offers the most up-to-date information available about these fascinating remnants of the ancient world. The free online edition of this open-access publication is available at www.getty.edu/publications/mummyportraits/ and includes zoomable illustrations and graphs. Also available are free PDF, EPUB, and Kindle/MOBI downloads of the book.

Download or read book Never Look Back written by Alison Gaylin and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-07-02 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Edgar Award-winning author of If I Die Tonight Reminiscent of the bestsellers of Laura Lippman and Harlan Coben—with a Serial-esque podcast twist—an absorbing, addictive tale of psychological suspense from the author of the highly acclaimed and Edgar Award-nominated What Remains of Me and the USA Today bestselling and Shamus Award-winning Brenna Spector series. For thirteen days in 1976, teenage murderers April Cooper and Gabriel LeRoy terrorized Southern California's Inland Empire, killing a dozen victims before perishing themselves in a fire... or did they? More than 40 years later, twentysomething podcast producer Quentin Garrison blames his troubled upbringing on the murders. And after a shocking message from a source, he has reason to believe April Cooper may still be alive. Meanwhile, New York City film columnist Robin Diamond is coping with rising doubts about her husband and terrifying threats from internet trolls. But that's nothing compared to the outrageous phone call she gets from Quentin... and a brutal home invasion that makes her question everything she ever believed in. Is Robin's beloved mother a mass murderer? Is there anyone she can trust? Told through the eyes of those destroyed by the Inland Empire Killings—including Robin, Quentin, and a fifteen-year-old April Cooper—Never Look Back asks the question: How well do we really know our parents, our partners—and ourselves?
