Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overall Winner of the 2019 OCM Bocas Prize for Caribbean Literature High Mas: Carnival and the Poetics of Caribbean Culture explores Caribbean identity through photography, criticism, and personal narrative. Taking a sophisticated and unapologetically subjective Caribbean point of view, the author delves into Mas—a key feature of Trinidad performance—as an emancipatory practice. The photographs and essays here immerse the viewer in carnival experience as never before. Kevin Adonis Browne divulges how performers are or wish to be perceived, along with how, as the photographer, he is implicated in that dynamic. The resulting interplay encourages an informed, nuanced approach to the imaging of contemporary Caribbeanness. The first series, “Seeing Blue,” features Blue Devils from the village of Paramin, whose performances signify an important revision of the post-emancipation tradition of Jab Molassie (Molasses Devil) in Trinidad. The second series, “La Femme des Revenants,” chronicles the debut performance of Tracey Sankar’s La Diablesse, which reintroduced the “Caribbean femme fatale” to a new audience. The third series, “Moko Jumbies of the South,” looks at Stephanie Kanhai and Jonadiah Gonzales, a pair of stilt-walkers from the performance group Touch de Sky from San Fernando in southern Trinidad. “Jouvay Reprised,” the fourth series, follows the political activist group Jouvay Ayiti performing a Mas in the streets of Port of Spain on Emancipation Day in 2015. Troubling the borders that persist between performer and audience, embodiment and spirituality, culture and self-consciousness, the book interrogates what audiences understand about the role of the participant-observer in public contexts. Representing the uneasy embrace of tradition in Trinidad and the Caribbean at large, the book probes the multiple dimensions of vernacular experience and their complementary cultural expressions. For Browne, Mas performance is an exquisite refusal to fully submit to the lingering traumas of slavery, the tyrannies of colonialism, and the myths of independence.

Book excerpt:  Two Exes. One holiday adventure. Merry Ex-Mas? Seventeen-year-old Lila Beckwith's parents just left for vacation, and Lila's all set to throw the holiday party of the season. But when her Christmas-obsessed little brother, Cooper, discovers that global warming is melting the North Pole, he and his best friend, Tyler, take off on a runaway mission to save Santa. Lila has to get Cooper safely home before her parents get back on Christmas Eve. But the only person who can help her is Tyler's older brother, Beau -- a.k.a. Lila's musician, anti-everything ex-boyfriend. It'll take more than a Christmas miracle for Lila and Beau to overcome their differences and find their fugitive brothers. But could a journey destined for disaster help these polar opposites fall in love...all over again?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evo Morales is one of the world's most controversial political leaders. His story is extraordinary: poor shepherd-boy, persecuted coca grower, self-professed admirer of Ché Guevara, hero of the anti-globalization movement, and first indigenous president of modern Latin America. The story of the social movement turned political party he is a part of -- the Movimiento Al Socialismo (MAS) -- is also exceptional: originally founded as a splinter of an ultra-right party, it was given as a gift for the coca growers after they had been banned several times for spurious reasons to register their own party, and went on to become an irresistible force for indigenous rights in Bolivia. In this insightful and revealing book, Sven Harten explains the success of the MAS and its wider consequences, showing how Morales has become the symbol for a new political consciousness that has entailed de-stigmatizing indigenous identities. In many ways, the analysis of Morales's political trajectory serves as a mirror for democracy in Bolivia. It reveals the challenge of squaring the rupture with a discredited past with the continuity of democracy and the aim of representing an entire society.

Book excerpt: Estimado lector el contenido que está por descubrir es una historia de búsqueda, de evolución, de cambio, merodeada por circunstancias comunes de nuestro personaje principal, un amor envuelto de complicaciones, un sueño abatido por sus discrepancias emocionales, un retrato del hombre moderno, inmerso en un mundo caótico. Es una reflexión de nuestra postura como entes sociales, partícipes de una cadena de causas y efectos, partícipes de un entorno que nos delimita y nos nombra, partícipes de una ciudad llamada Collage y de ese folklor que vive en ella.

Book excerpt: Claudia creyó siempre que jamás querría a nadie como amaba a Carlos, su primer y único novio, el de toda la vida y con el que estaba comprometida física y emocionalmente. Pero el destino le tenía preparada una gran sorpresa, Antonio, el chico que conoció en el Colegio, el que le enseño lo que era el verdadero amor, el que calladamente se fue acercando a su corazón y se lo robo sin que ella se diera cuenta. Un amor superior a todo, que hace que ambos inevitablemente sean devorados por el mismo fuego. Un amor que fue victima del chantaje, las malas decisiones, las presiones y la ignorancia. Un amor que no pudo realizarse pero que perduró por años y se fortaleció mas allá del tiempo y que solo la muerte traería el olvido.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En una frontera sin límites e incomprensible, Héctor Charles no puede concebir la idea de dónde está, quién es ni quién fue, pero sospecha que será juzgado por una fuerza superior divina y hasta por él mismo. Héctor desciende a regiones infernales al ser obligado a revivir sistemáticamente cada uno de sus actos y los que a toda costa intenta ocultar y olvidar. Por no poder discernir en su posición inanimada su real identidad, el hombre sufre las consecuencias derivadas de la intrínseca pasión que lo llevó a un final insospechado, no solamente para él, sino para todos aquellos que en vida lo rodearon. At a limitless and incomprehensible border, Hector Charles cannot comprehend where he is, who he is, or who he was; but he suspects that he will one day be judged by a divine higher power and even by himself. Hector is descending into hellish depths as he is forced to systematically relive each of his actions, actions he tries to hide at all costs and longs to forget. As he is unable to discern his real identity in this inanimate position, he suffers the consequences that result from the intrinsic passion that brought him to an end that neither he nor all who knew him in life could have foreseen. I would like to add a credit for the artist Jorge Posada, who provided his paintings for the covers of both books. Covers by Colombian artist Jorge Posada http://www.jorgeposada-art.com

Book excerpt: Spiritual Growth . . . Made Clear! Why is it that some people show remarkable growth in their relationships with God, but others seem stuck? Is there a secret that some are in on and the rest have missed? Or has God provided wisdom and power for accelerated growth for every believer? In this book, Pastor Bill White answers those questions . . . and many more. He explains the logical progression of spiritual growth and shows the parallels with physical development. His principles are eye-opening, and his applications provide clear steps toward real progress. If you want to grow in your faith and your impact for Christ, this is the book for you! And if you’re trying to help others grow—family members, friends, and people you’re discipling—Pastor Bill provides encouragement and direction for you, too.

Book excerpt: ¿CÓMO EXPLICAR UN AMOR QUE NO TIENE EXPLICACIÓN?¿Qué sucederá si dejas que este amor conmueva tu corazón?Descubra al Dios que siempre ha deseado encontrar: un Padre que le ama y que está comprometido con su mayor felicidad.En su mundo que llora por ser amado, ¿ha sido impactado por el amor de Dios? En su interior, ¿aún lo ve como una figura autoritaria que demanda que se haga todo de forma correcta o ha vislumbrado a su Padre celestial como realmente está, sonriéndole con gozo indescriptible? John Ortberg descorre las cortinas que cubren este concepto erróneo para revelar lo que siempre usted ha esperado y lo que siempre ha sabido que es verdad: El amor de Dios es un amor que va más allá de la razón. Y está esperando para fluir a su vida con una gracia que puede transformarle a usted y a los que le rodean.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro es un diálogo franco, abierto y sincero entre un cristiano y un baha'i. El cristiano expone, propone, argumenta y hace preguntas impertinentes al baha'i comenzando con una actitud de mera curiosidad que se va transformando en una búsqueda sincera por entender, comprender, profundizar y asimilar las enseñanzas, principios y pilares de la Fe Bahá'i como fueron presentados por su fundador, Bahá'u'lláh. En dicho diálogo multitud de aspectos son tocados, explicados, ampliados, comparados como le ocurrió a tanto judío cuando escuchó por primera vez el revolucionario Mensaje de Jesús. En forma paralela y similar el cristiano se ve avocado, frente a Bahá'u'lláh que declara ser el Retorno del Espíritu de Jesús, a pasar por un proceso similar de cuestionamiento, de desafío, de reflexión, de investigación que tuvo que pasar un judío cuando escuchó los principios de la Revelación de Jesús, pero que, para el cristiano de hoy día, es la Revelación dada por Bahá'u'lláh. Frente a Bahá'u'lláh no hay 'medias tintas'; o se le acepta como Él afirma Quien es, la Manifestación de Dios más reciente para la Humanidad, o se le rechaza como un impostor, un loco, o un profeta falso. El libro es una franca investigación para esclarecer cuál es la verdad ineludible de Quién es Bahá'u'lláh. Tendrás una amplia oportunidad de forjarte una idea clara al respecto cuando aceptes la invitación de leer el libro hasta el último capítulo. Esta es pues, una cálida invitación a vivenciar la más revolucionaria aventura espiritual que hasta este momento hayas tenido oportunidad de realizar.
