Book excerpt: In the Unwalled City takes its title from Epicurus, who wrote: “Against other things it is possible to obtain security, but when it comes to death, we human beings all live in an unwalled city.” This affecting book—which weaves prose memoir with poetry—explores that feeling of being open to attack—in this case the pain of grief after Robert Cording’s thirty-one-year-old son Daniel died. To borrow a phrase from C.S. Lewis, here is “a grief observed,” encompassing not only the big questions but also the impact of grief on daily life. For a poet like Cording, one form that grief takes is that of speaking to his son. In “Afterlife,” Cording has a vision of his son replying: “let the emptiness remain empty . . . Stop writing down / everything you think I’m telling you. / This is your afterlife, not mine.” At the heart of In the Unwalled City is a series of questions: How does loss change a person? How does one chart a new life that both acknowledges a son’s death and still finds a way back to delight? How does one now live fully in the unwalled city?

Book excerpt: Gripped by the tyranny of an evil warlord and his army of supernatural, bloodthirsty wolves, the citizens of Jandor only understand poverty, devastation, and hopelessness. From their humble ranks comes a young man whose devotion to his people overcomes any base desires of self-preference or self-aggrandizement. Shackled by adversity and the victim of ruthless, unfettered power, young Geoffrey Talbot rejects the natural instinct to remain in never-ending sorrow. Treasuring the gift of life, he chooses to rise from his torturous condition by pursuing noble and heroic efforts to save his fellow countrymen from the ravages of evil. Will extraordinary tragedy and grievous pain transform this humble waif into a national hero destined to usher in an elusive peace long sought after by the people he sacrificed all to save... or will death claim them all?

Download or read book America Becomes Urban written by Eric H. Monkkonen and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-07-26 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's cities: celebrated by poets, courted by politicians, castigated by social reformers. In their numbers and complexity they challenge comprehension. Why is urban America the way it is? Eric Monkkonen offers a fresh approach to the myths and the history of US urban development, giving us an unexpected and welcome sense of our urban origins. His historically anchored vision of our cities places topics of finance, housing, social mobility, transportation, crime, planning, and growth into a perspective which explains the present in terms of the past and ofers a point from which to plan for the future. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1988 with a paperback in 1990.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Losing Everything: A Family's Journey with Alzheimer's Disease is written about our long journey with Mom and her illness, as well as how this disease has impacted our lives. Alzheimer's is a thief that slowly robs families of loved ones, long before their lives end. This book is in memory of the mother we once knew, and even though she is still alive, she was stolen by this disease and is now forever lost to us. Mom is sick and getting sicker each day. Once Mom became ill, I began keeping a journal with the idea that it might help Mom's memory. Of course, it did not. Instead, the journal is a series of anecdotes that touches on all the core emotions that we feel: anger, frustration, laughter, and most importantly, love.

Download or read book Routledge Handbook on Middle East Cities written by Haim Yacobi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-01 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting the current debate about cities in the Middle East from Sana’a, Beirut and Jerusalem to Cairo, Marrakesh and Gaza, the book explores urban planning and policy, migration, gender and identity as well as politics and economics of urban settings in the region. This handbook moves beyond essentialist and reductive analyses of identity, urban politics, planning, and development in cities in the Middle East, and instead offers critical engagement with both historical and contemporary urban processes in the region. Approaching "Cities" as multi-dimensional sites, products of political processes, knowledge production and exchange, and local and global visions as well as spatial artefacts. Importantly, in the different case studies and theoretical approaches, there is no attempt to idealise urban politics, planning, and everyday life in the Middle East –– which (as with many other cities elsewhere) are also situations of contestation and violence –– but rather to highlight how cities in the region, and especially those which are understudied, revolve around issues of housing, infrastructure, participation and identity, amongst other concerns. Analysing a variety of cities in the Middle East, the book is a significant contribution to Middle East Studies. It is an essential resource for students and academics interested in Geography, Regional and Urban Studies of the Middle East.
