Book excerpt: Albert's dream led him toward independence. Escaping slavery, and to pursue a life where no man controlled him, was his goal. Frivolities of friendships could vanish with the whip of a switch, but freedom could be held a lifetime. Rayna's choice was to set an example and board a ship so her people could survive. Only after arrival in America, at Bristol Plantation, did she realize what consequences her sacrifice held. Her surrender meant life as a slave and separation from her island family. Can Albert's heart transcend language and barriers of repression and allow Rayna close? Will Rayna put aside hurt caused by the plantation owner and permit Albert's love to heal her heart? Can the pair abandon mistrust and let the kindness of strangers be their salvation?
Download or read book The Story Prize written by Larry Dark and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2019-03-05 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "You don’t often get collections, or even anthologies where every story knocks you out, but I’ve been bewildered in the best way over each one [in The Story Prize] so far." —Lillian Li, author of Number One Chinese Restaurant This anthology of short stories marks the fifteenth anniversary of The Story Prize and includes one story from each of the annual winning collections, beginning with Edwidge Danticat’s The Dew Breaker and concluding with Elizabeth Strout’s Anything Is Possible. The founder of The Story Prize, Julie Lindsey, and its director, Larry Dark, created this award to address the lack of one specifically for collections of stories. Together they choose three finalists from the previous year’s publications, which are sent to three judges—an author, a bookseller or librarian, and a critic or editor—who, independently of one another, relay their choices. The prize is then presented at an annual celebration in New York, where the finalists read from their books and then discuss their work with Dark. Excerpts from these interviews—or, in a few cases, the judges’ citations—introduce each story in the book. The authors chose the stories included to read at the annual Story Prize event.

Download or read book Ebb and Flow written by Easkey Britton and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2023-04-11 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of water's power to heal us, inspire us and offer us spiritual meaning. This is a feminist reimagining of the meaning of power through the lens of water. Easkey offers a range of wellness practices to encourage the reader to connect with water as healer, restoring a relationship of care. Our strength lies in being soft like water. This book is about the power we gain by connecting to water. It’s about how we can restore our relationship with the world's different bodies of water, and by doing so, restore both the water and ourselves. By sharing Easkey's own experiences as surfer and marine scientist, as well as those of many of her mentors who are at the forefront of water protection and activism around the world, it guides readers into reimagining the spirituality of water and restoring our innate connection with this lifeblood of the planet. The book also provides the reader with water-inspired strategies to restore calm, reduce stress and soothe anxiety. These range from simple breathing and visualization exercises to undertaking a journey from a water source to the ocean in order to forge a deep connection with the water. The emphasis is as much on the benefit to water as it is to the individual, and on creating a culture of reciprocity and care. By regaining this lost connection with water, we learn to develop an empathic connection with the force of all life and in the process restore our own hearts and minds.

Download or read book A Sycamore Secret written by Stacey Weeks and published by Grace and Love Publishing. This book was released on 2023 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: His custom coffee blend, paired with her social media following, brews a latte of trouble. When the Fan Favorite Choice Awards include Kathryn Withers’s independent web show as a finalist, the internet trolls slither out from under their bridges. Kathryn livestreams daily, growing her following and improving her chances of winning, but trending on social media backfires. The generated buzz connects the arrival of an unwelcome guest in Sycamore Hill to a shameful secret in Kathryn’s past. A secret she’d do almost anything to keep hidden. Ethan Roberts invested every penny in expanding his bakery, The Muffin Man, to include on-site coffee roasting. When Kathryn streams from his location, the increased visibility boosts his confidence that everything he has ever wanted is at his fingertips. But the frenzied online comments and lingering paparazzi prove that mixing a tenacious morning show host, an entrepreneurial baker, and a decade-old secret only percolates trouble. A Sycamore Secret is filled to the brim with small-town charm, a faith-filled community, and a slow-roasted romance perfectly brewed to a sweet and smooth finish.

Download or read book The Hill Road written by Patrick O'Keeffe and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2006-10-31 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2005 Story Prize Reminiscent of Alice Munro and William Trevor, Patrick O'Keeffe's lyrical eloquence expressively unveils the cloistered world of a rural southwestern Irish town and its inhabitants. Brimming with thoughtful, gorgeous prose and linked by setting and circumstances that span generations, the four novellas in The Hill Road revolve around the parish of Kilroan and its inhabitants, and how, over time, the people and the community itself are transfigured by life-changing events. Marked by love, devotion, secrets, unfulfilled dreams, family intimacies, and missed opportunities, these characters embody the rugged unfolding of the landscape-a volatile place of natural beauty where stories alter lives. BACKCOVER: "A remarkable achievement . . . There is a wonderful Irish music running through O'Keeffe's prose, yet his tales of ordinary rural life in twentieth-century Ireland are unsparing and never sentimental." -The Baltimore Sun "Handsome, subtle narratives by an exquisitely talented Irishborn writer." -Elle "Lush and evocative . . . a dreamlike collection." -The New York Times Book Review
