Book excerpt: Twenty-three year-old Arturo Fernandez believes he has his life figured out. Like most young men in his village of Colima, Mexico, his plan is simple. He envisions himself marrying his long term girlfriend as soon as his carpentry business has taken off, and together they would build a nice home and raise happy children. Then the wind blows an American woman into Arturo’s path, and his life changes in ways so tragic that he finds himself considering the unthinkable. Laura Marie Spencer, a red-haired beauty from America is unwinding in Colima after a messy divorce from her wealthy husband when she happens to watch Arturo in an amateur boxing match. Impressed by his obvious passion and unmatched skill for the sport, Laura persuades Arturo to come to America with her where she promises to help him pursue a professional boxing career. Laura asserts that Arturo is a gem buried in Colima soils and all he needs is a little polishing to make him shine. Though initially resistant, Arturo eventually concedes that Laura’s offer is a God-sent opportunity that will help him achieve bigger dreams - like rescuing his family from the pangs of poverty. But when he arrives in America, his life is turned upside down with a force so powerful that it sends him careening on the edge of insanity. Instead of the fame, prosperity and success Laura had promised, Arturo is tossed into a path laced with sex, lies, deception and even murder. A golden opportunity turns into a fight for his life. How does a simple village carpenter from Mexico end up in a maximum prison in Florida charged with the murder of the very woman who had promised to nurture his dream? A shocking revelation from Laura’s scandalous secret past might be Arturo’s only saving grace...
Book Synopsis Last Song Before Night by : Ilana C. Myer
Download or read book Last Song Before Night written by Ilana C. Myer and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2015-09-29 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A high fantasy following a young woman's defiance of her culture as she undertakes a dangerous quest to restore her world's lost magic in Ilana C. Myer's Last Song Before Night. Her name was Kimbralin Amaristoth: sister to a cruel brother, daughter of a hateful family. But that name she has forsworn, and now she is simply Lin, a musician and lyricist of uncommon ability in a land where women are forbidden to answer such callings-a fugitive who must conceal her identity or risk imprisonment and even death. On the eve of a great festival, Lin learns that an ancient scourge has returned to the land of Eivar, a pandemic both deadly and unnatural. Its resurgence brings with it the memory of an apocalypse that transformed half a continent. Long ago, magic was everywhere, rising from artistic expression-from song, from verse, from stories. But in Eivar, where poets once wove enchantments from their words and harps, the power was lost. Forbidden experiments in blood divination unleashed the plague that is remembered as the Red Death, killing thousands before it was stopped, and Eivar's connection to the Otherworld from which all enchantment flowed, broken. The Red Death's return can mean only one thing: someone is spilling innocent blood in order to master dark magic. Now poets who thought only to gain fame for their songs face a challenge much greater: galvanized by Valanir Ocune, greatest Seer of the age, Lin and several others set out to reclaim their legacy and reopen the way to the Otherworld-a quest that will test their deepest desires, imperil their lives, and decide the future.

Download or read book Fire Dance written by Lynn Freeman Olson and published by Alfred Music. This book was released on 2005-05-03 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Presto con fuoco" makes this A minor showpiece a nice challenge for the intermediate artist, but it is very playable, as most of the sixteenth note passages lie under the fingers without major movement of the hands. Another nice challenge is the need to play legato in one hand and staccato in the other. The style is very "marcato" with many accents and a wide use of the keyboard (including the lowest A on the piano). A Federation Festivals 2016-2020 selection.

Book excerpt: In this sixth installment in the critically acclaimed Swedish crime series, the murder of a young ballerina named Sophie, apparently an arson victim, sets off shrill alarm bells for Detective Inspector Irene Huss, who remembers the matching details of an unsolved case from fifteen years earlier, when Irene had only just started in the police force. The stepfather of the then eight-year-old Sophie has been murdered in a very similar way, and at the time the girl herself had been under suspicions. The circumstances force Irene and her colleagues to confront an uncomfortable question: can a child be responsible for the cold-blooded murder of an adult? The case awakens vivid memories that take the reader back to Irene's days as a young police officer.

Book Synopsis Firewalking and Religious Healing by : Loring M. Danforth
Download or read book Firewalking and Religious Healing written by Loring M. Danforth and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-29 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If the Saint calls you, if you have an open road, then you don't feel the fire as if it were your enemy," says one of the participants in the Anastenaria. This compelling work evokes and contrasts two forms of firewalking and religious healing: first, the Anastenaria, a northern Greek ritual in which people who are possessed by Saint Constantine dance dramatically over red-hot coals, and, second, American firewalking, one of the more spectacular activities of New Age psychology. Loring Danforth not only analyzes these rituals in light of the most recent work in medical and symbolic anthropology but also describes in detail the lives of individual firewalkers, involving the reader personally in their experiences: he views ritual therapy as a process of transformation and empowerment through which people are metaphorically moved from a state of illness to a state of health. Danforth shows that the Anastenaria and the songs accompanying it allow people to express and resolve conflict-laden family relationships that may lead to certain kinds of illnesses. He also demonstrates how women use the ritual to gain a sense of power and control over their lives without actually challenging the ideology of male dominance that pervades Greek culture. Comparing the Anastenaria with American firewalking, Danforth includes a gripping account of his own participation in a firewalk in rural Maine. Finally he examines the place of anthropology in a postmodern world in which the boundaries between cultures are becoming increasingly blurred.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stork Mountain tells the story of a young Bulgarian immigrant who, in an attempt to escape his mediocre life in America, returns to the country of his birth. Retracing the steps of his estranged grandfather, a man who suddenly and inexplicably cut all contact with the family three years prior, the boy finds himself on the border of Bulgaria and Turkey, a stone's throw away from Greece, high up in the Strandja Mountains. It is a place of pagan mysteries and black storks nesting in giant oaks; a place where every spring, possessed by Christian saints, men and women dance barefoot across live coals in search of rebirth. Here in the mountains, the boy reunites with his grandfather. Here in the mountain, he falls in love with an unobtainable Muslim girl. Old ghosts come back to life and forgotten conflicts, in the name of faith and doctrine, blaze anew. Stork Mountain is an enormously charming, slyly brilliant debut novel from an internationally celebrated writer. It is a novel that will undoubtedly find a home in many readers' hearts.

"My kind, the Fire Dancers, we make the machines work. We harvest the sun for energy." "The star had been growing closer to the atmosphere. The forests burned with fire that ran across the ground like sunlight at daybreak. It was a ragged, wild dance that left the land exhausted." "Fire danced amongst the rebels. Horses bolted, their manes, their tails afire, liquid flame dripping upon the grass." "As he watched, she whirled, like a dervish, faster and faster until she burst into a fireball." "The painting I found most striking is one that he calls 'The Fire Dance, ' or 'Upa 'upa in the native Tahitian language." "Fire-starting was something of a talent, perhaps his only one." "'My land in this realm is fraught with tension, fire and instability; I dare not leave.'" "'Why do you call that dog Firedance, not Henry?'" "Three ragged children gyrate to rhythms that none can hear to make the fire, the animating fire." "'Ya gotta learn a lesson kid: you mess with me, and you're messing with fire.'"
