Book excerpt: Faces in the Moon is the story of three generations of Cherokee women, as viewed by the youngest, Lucie, a woman who has been able to use education and her imagination to escape the confines of her rootless, impoverished upbringing. When her mother’s illness summons her back to Oklahoma, Lucie finds herself confronted with the legacy of a childhood she has worked hard to separate from her adult self. Her mother, Gracie, and her maternal aunt, Auney, are members of the Cherokees’ "lost generation," women who rejected the traditional rural ways in search of a more glamorous life as autonomous working women.

Book Synopsis The Girl with the Face of the Moon by : Ellis Amdur
Download or read book The Girl with the Face of the Moon written by Ellis Amdur and published by Edgework: Crisis Intervention Resources Pllc. This book was released on 2019-05-08 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ellis Amdur's first novel is a singular piece that is as utterly unique and universally mythic. It is unmistakably a product of Amdur's unique experience and insight, but in the precision and simplicity of execution it is profound and timeless.I think this is a rare and triumphant addition to that unique genre, the ogre tale. We don't get many these days; perhaps the best modern example is the Peter Greenaway film "The Cook, The Thief, His Wife & Her Lover." Although we see ogres all around us in life and literature, we rarely get to see the interplay of nature and culture, wild, tame and in between, sanity and madness, harm and healing, persistence, struggle and redemption (or the all to common lack thereof and the consequences of that for the survivors) laid bare and portrayed in stark signifiers for us to wrestle with long after the tale is told.It is that quality, the resonant reverberation in the mind of the reader, that is the mark of a work that is above the norm. I think "The Girl With The Face of the Moon" has that quality. Others may remark on the reality and visceral quality of the combat and body arts depicted, or the unique snapshot of life ways now faded to hazy memories of times now gone. But to me it is that truth only to be found in the most stylized myth or folktale that is a rare gift to be treasured when it is found. This deserves to find its way into printed form.

When bounty hunters arrive seeking the wolves, Hyacinth flees to join Dreamcatcher's pack. To survive, they must reach the Mystic Forest, where a powerful shaman named Joyful Savannah offers a safe haven. But the journey will take them through the Seven Devils Mountains, where they will face man-eating ogres, a legion of goblins, and other terrors.

Book Synopsis Among The White Moonfaces by : Shirley Geok-lin Lim
Download or read book Among The White Moonfaces written by Shirley Geok-lin Lim and published by Marshall Cavendish International Asia Pte Ltd. This book was released on 2011-05-15 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first woman and Asian to win the Commonwealth Prize, Among the White Moon Faces is an autobiography that chronicles the confusion of personal identity—linguistically, culturally, and sexually. The English-educated child of a Chinese father and a Peranakan mother, Lim grew up in post-colonial Malaysia with a tangle of names, languages and roles. The deep-seated, cross-cultural ironies of this fragmented identity also echo throughout this memoir; from the love-hate relationship she shares with a neglectful father and an estranged mother, the pain of hunger suffered during childhood, to her Anglophile education and the loneliness of cultural displacement. Lim eventually finds reconciliation in her perpetual exile, using the solace of writing to create a sense of place and to counter the pull of ancient ghosts.
