Book excerpt: An immortal warrior. A secret from the grave. And a deadly enemy determined to destroy them both. Maya Bellegarde has spent her entire life searching for a way to break the curse hanging over her and her People, immortal warrior women forced to live in secret on the whim of a vengeful god. When an ancient symbol linked to the Seven Sisters, the progenitors of the People, is found in an unusual grave in a Swedish archaeological dig alongside a cache of rare documents, Maya volunteers to investigate it with James Terhune, a handsome archaic language expert. The attraction between Maya and James burns strong and bright, surprising them both. But when a mysterious thief raids the archaeological site, they must work together in a race against time to translate the documents before the People’s ancient enemy can interfere, threatening the lives of Maya and James’s families. James soon begins to suspect, however, that the secrets of the grave are minor compared to the secrets Maya holds, secrets that could hamper their burgeoning relationship and cripple the work they've undertaken. Can she learn to trust him before their common enemy strikes? Or has time hardened her heart to the love that could save them both and help them uncover the only hope her People have for redemption?

Book Synopsis The Poisonwood Bible by : Barbara Kingsolver
Download or read book The Poisonwood Bible written by Barbara Kingsolver and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller • Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize • An Oprah's Book Club Selection “Powerful . . . [Kingsolver] has with infinitely steady hands worked the prickly threads of religion, politics, race, sin and redemption into a thing of terrible beauty.” —Los Angeles Times Book Review The Poisonwood Bible, now celebrating its 25th anniversary, established Barbara Kingsolver as one of the most thoughtful and daring of modern writers. Taking its place alongside the classic works of postcolonial literature, it is a suspenseful epic of one family's tragic undoing and remarkable reconstruction over the course of three decades in Africa. The story is told by the wife and four daughters of Nathan Price, a fierce, evangelical Baptist who takes his family and mission to the Belgian Congo in 1959. They carry with them everything they believe they will need from home, but soon find that all of it—from garden seeds to Scripture—is calamitously transformed on African soil. The novel is set against one of the most dramatic political chronicles of the twentieth century: the Congo's fight for independence from Belgium, the murder of its first elected prime minister, the CIA coup to install his replacement, and the insidious progress of a world economic order that robs the fledgling African nation of its autonomy. Against this backdrop, Orleanna Price reconstructs the story of her evangelist husband's part in the Western assault on Africa, a tale indelibly darkened by her own losses and unanswerable questions about her own culpability. Also narrating the story, by turns, are her four daughters—the teenaged Rachel; adolescent twins Leah and Adah; and Ruth May, a prescient five-year-old. These sharply observant girls, who arrive in the Congo with racial preconceptions forged in 1950s Georgia, will be marked in surprisingly different ways by their father's intractable mission, and by Africa itself. Ultimately each must strike her own separate path to salvation. Their passionately intertwined stories become a compelling exploration of moral risk and personal responsibility.

Book Synopsis Memory of the Abyss by : Marcello Fois
Download or read book Memory of the Abyss written by Marcello Fois and published by Quercus. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Samuele Stocchino is two years old the village sage can already see a heart shaped like a wolf's head beating in his breast: the heart of a murderer. As a colonial soldier in Northern Africa, recruited from one subject land to subdue another, the sixteen-year-old Stocchino learns to kill before he has learned to love, and it is a skill he hones to perfection on the pitiless battlefields of the Corso Front in the Great War. Returning to Sardinia a hero to a pauper's welcome, he finds his family swindled and his sweetheart stolen away by the richest clan in the region, and from one first crime of passion a bitter feud is born. Stocchino terrorizes his wealthy neighbors and anyone who dares to till their land until, with Italy now firmly under Mussolini's boot, his elimination becomes Il Duce's priority. As he continues to elude capture, the seeds of myth are sown and the legend of Samuele Stocchino is forged. Shrouded by mystery and portent, Memory of the Abyss is a stirring fusion of myth, history and fiction, a daring re-imagining of the true story of a notorious Sardinian bandit and a deft excavation of the island's cultural roots by one of Italy's most gifted and celebrated writers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He took out his pistol from its holster and without warning shot Sean twice in the stomach. Sean could feel his life draining out of him. Zamatev walked towards Sean. He took another drink from the bottle. When it was empty, he threw it into the dense bush. ‘This one is for blowing up my base Sergeant,’ he said and shot Sean again. Sean didn’t feel the bullet; his whole body was so numb that it didn’t signal any pain in his brain. ‘You see Sergeant, I know that it was you and your pig brother who was responsible for demolishing my base, only now I’m the one who is doing the demolishing.’ Zamatev got so carried away that he kept on squeezing the trigger. Mercifully Sean was dead before the clip was empty.
Download or read book Entering Fire written by Rikki Ducornet and published by City Lights Books. This book was released on 2021-10-20 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This startling and brilliantly comic novel tells the stories of two men: a father and his estranged son. Lamprias de Bergerac is a gentle mystic and amateur botanist who spends his middle-aged years in an erotic utopia deep in the Amazonian jungle, collecting specimens of rare orchids and ultimately finding Cucla, the young and free-spirited native woman who has become the love of his life. Meanwhile, his demented son Septimus is raised by his mother in prewar Europe, seething with hatred of the father who abandoned him. He rises to power in Nazi-occupied France, where he goes mad in an obsessive pursuit of racial purity. Rikki Ducornet has a gift for combining the horrific with the hilarious, the realistic with the fantastic. Through a wildly inventive narrative, Entering Fire scrutinizes the sources of fascist mentality in nations and, potentially, in all humans. "Linguistically explosive and socially relevant, [her] works are solid evidence that Rikki Ducornet is one of the most interesting writers around ... We are living in an age of intellectual and emotional starvation that is largely without spirituality, cynical about social change and disconnected from the natural world. We need writers to look at these difficult issues in a sophisticated manner. Ducornet has done this. She is the mirror of our innermost selves. And she gives us back to ourselves—despairing , hopeful, active, contemplative, fractured but surviving, playful, even happy sometimes, and always whole ... Ducornet's villains have the best lines ... one only has to think of Hitler or PolPot or any of our assorted tyrants to know that Ducornet's figures are ... taken from life."—The Nation "Entering Fire displays a cheerfully gruesome audacity and an imagination both lively and bizarre."—The New York Times "Entering Fire is about the metaphoric and potentially evil properties of language; it is about origins and motives of myth-making. This is a novel of ideas (often strange ideas) that is sustained throughout by brilliant writing."—London Sunday Times "Far from being an escapist fantasy, Entering Fire takes on some of the biggest issues of the 20th century … For sheer power, inventiveness and verbal density, [it] is the best read I've come across for a long time."—The Observer "A drastically beautiful comic writer who stitches sentences together as if Proust had gone into partnership with Lenny Bruce."—City Limits " … imaginative and unbridled fantasy."—Le Monde " … an imagination and a style as captivating as it is devastating."—Lire "Unlike anything you've ever read before."—L'Express Rikki Ducornet has a gift for combining the horrific with the hilarious, the realistic with the fantastic. Through a wildly inventive narrative, Entering Fire scrutinizes the sources of fascist mentality in nations and, potentially, in all humans.

This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Table of Contents Introduction “Sophrology” and Meditation Techniques Short “Power Naps” The Word Sound of “Om” Positive Determination – Sankalpa The Respiratory Cycle Count Waking up and Stretching The Cat’s Purr… Tips for Preventing Insomnia from Occurring The Benefits of Restorative Sleep and Yoga Nidra Conclusion Check out a few other Mendon Cottage Book Publications! Publisher Introduction This book is going to introduce you to a very interesting subject, especially for all of us who are chronic insomniacs. This is the power of restorative sleep, and you are going to get to know more about ways and means with which you can get your daily 10 hours of sleep every day, and uninterrupted. Along with this, you are going to learn more about yoga Nidra [sleep yoga] which is a technique of visualization as well as profound relaxation, quite similar to a light sleep. So you do not know whether you are sleeping lightly, or just relaxing in deep meditation. This women is practicing the ancient yogic pose of the “corpse.” The palms are touching the ground. It should not be done more than 30 - 45 minutes. Even today, meditation and yogic exercises are not done on a stone floor or a cement floor. They are always done with parts of your body touching mother earth. That is how it is supposed that the natural harmonious wavelengths of the earth and its vibrations can permeate through your being. But we use yoga mats or rugs or carpets on a stone floor. To each his own, especially when we do not want to allow the dew of the grass to give us a chill when we lie down in different relaxation positions on the grass. In olden times, of course, this relaxing was done with your skin bare, and flinging yourself on mother Earth and allowing her to heal you. We being civilized now are more inhibited and would not even think of such a thing, would we? I am not a Hindu. That is why anybody who thinks why my books are about yoga and they are religion concentric has been given some misguided information. The art of yoga existed in the Indian sub-continent 5000 years before the “Hindus” began following the religion of Hinduism. Yoga was practiced by the ancients, who followed a path of right living, which they called “Dharma”, or Faith. These ancients were the indigents, living in the Indian subcontinent who history now calls the Aryans and their books of right living were written in Sanskrit. These books are now revered all over the world, by the Hindus and by other intellectuals, as great founts of knowledge passed down by the wise ones before us.
