During his reign, however, his subjects witness the most difficult time in their lives. Was he really the cause of their unending problems? The king weeps silently, as he knows that he can't alleviate the suffering of his people. He then has a dream. In the dream, his kingdom flourishes. Everybody praises him for the golden era. The king dances royally in the dream. As his friend knocks at the door, he wakes up and faces the reality of his troubled days. Laughter From The Sky is a satire about modern day prophets, especially in the poverty stricken African countries. Everybody is looking for the ways to survive. That is why there are prophets everywhere. They promise prosperity to all their church members. God sees them and laughs.

Ten-year-old Nashville doesn't feel like he belongs with his family, in his town, or even in this world.

Despite the support of his loving family, Nashville wishes more than anything that he could join his fellow birds up in the sky.

And yet, in this lyrical novel with the feel of a timeless fable, Michelle Cuevas manages to convince us that, actually, anythingis possible. 'This is an impossibly lovely tale - but then, as Nashville, the soaring heart of this exquisite novel, learns, nothing is impossible when you follow your dreams. Beyond the Laughing Skyis a triumph.' Katherine Applegate, Newbery Award-winning author of The One and Only Ivan

Book Synopsis Treacherous Bonds and Laughing Fire: Politics and Religion in Wagner's Ring by : Mark Berry
Download or read book Treacherous Bonds and Laughing Fire: Politics and Religion in Wagner's Ring written by Mark Berry and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mark Berry explores the political and religious ideas expounded in Wagner's Ring through close attention to the text and drama, the multifarious intellectual influences upon the composer during the work's lengthy gestation and composition, and the wealth of Wagner source material. Many of his writings are explicitly political in their concerns, for Wagner was emphatically not a revolutionary solely for the sake of art. Yet it would be misleading to see even the most 'political' tracts as somehow divorced from the aesthetic realm; Wagner's radical challenge to liberal-democratic politics makes no such distinction. This book considers Wagner's treatment of various worlds: nature, politics, economics, and metaphysics, in order to explain just how radical that challenge is. Classical interpretations have tended to opt either for an 'optimistic' view of the Ring, centred upon the influence of Young Hegelian thought - in particular the philosophy of Ludwig Feuerbach - and Wagner's concomitant revolutionary politics, or for the 'pessimistic' option, removing the disillusioned Wagner-in-Swiss-exile from the political sphere and stressing the undoubtedly important role of Arthur Schopenhauer. Such an 'either-or' approach seriously misrepresents not only Wagner's compositional method but also his intellectual method. It also sidelines inconvenient aspects of the dramas that fail to 'fit' whichever interpretation is selected. Wagner's tendency is not progressively to recant previous 'errors' in his oeuvre. Radical ideas are not completely replaced by a Schopenhauerian world-view, however loudly the composer might come to trumpet his apparent 'conversion'. Nor is Wagner's truly an Hegelian method, although Hegelian dialectic plays an important role. In fact, Wagner is in many ways not really a systematic thinker at all (which is not to portray him as self-consciously unsystematic in a Nietzschean, let alone 'post-modernist' fashion).
Download or read book Rajmahal written by Kamalini Sengupta and published by The Feminist Press at CUNY. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of post-colonial Indian life through “engagingly embroidered stories that leave us replete and delighted” (The Sunday Tribune, India). Marriages, affairs, death, madness, and second chances all live within the walls of Rajmahal, an unusual Bengali house that has stood through a century of turbulent changes. Within the walls of this stately home, now divided into six apartments, the melting pot of tenants include Sikhs, Muslims, Brits, Russian-Bengalis, zamindari Bengalis, and Roman Catholics. As different as they are, all face the same struggle to come to grips with the social, economic, and intellectual forces working in India as it moves from the British Raj to independence. In this beautifully crafted tale, the intertwined fortunes and personal battles of these characters become a mirror of the country’s struggle for possession of its future. “The encompassing achievement of the novel is its penetration . . . of the life of the post-colonialist and post-colonized living on, somehow together” (Nadine Gordimer, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature).
