Finally, in a moment of utmost compassion and bravery, she rescues a nearly drowned kitten and finds, yes, she can be loved. But with her father's plan to kill her cat, she escapes the castle and nearly is submerged in a quicksand. She's rescued by a mysterious older lady who has magical powers. Together, they travel around as gypsies to disguise her. Finally, she's given shelter in a very nice farming family, but she dare not give her real identity to them. An older young man in the family falls in love with her, but she dare not love or reveal who she really is. Finally, he discovers her real identity, and she weeps loads of diamonds and other precious gems. But can the worst curse imaginable withstand true love? This is a novel, a tale of growth, however painful, and discovery into one's deepest self and discovering courage and resiliency.
Book Synopsis Princess More Tears to Cry by : Jean Sasson
Download or read book Princess More Tears to Cry written by Jean Sasson and published by Random House. This book was released on 2014-08-28 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Jean Sasson’s book Princess: Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia was published, it became an immediate international bestseller. It sold to 43 countries and spent 13 weeks on The New York Times bestseller list. Now, in this long-awaited, compelling new book, Sasson and the Princess ‘Sultana’ return to tell the world what it means to be a Saudi woman today. Through advances in education and with access to work, Saudi women are breaking through the barriers; they are becoming doctors, social workers, business owners and are even managing to push at the boundaries of public life. Major steps forward have, undoubtedly, been made. But this is not the whole story. Sadly, despite changes in the law, all too often legal loopholes leave women exposed to terrible suppression, abuse and crimes of psychological and physical violence. For many, the struggle for basic human rights continues. This fascinating insight will include personal stories of triumph and heartbreak, as told to Princess 'Sultana', her eldest daughter, and author Jean Sasson. Each of these stories will offer the reader a glimpse into different aspects of Saudi society, including the lives of the Princess, her daughter and other members of the Al-Saud Royal family.

Book Synopsis Cognitive Linguistic Explorations in Biblical Studies by : Bonnie Howe
Download or read book Cognitive Linguistic Explorations in Biblical Studies written by Bonnie Howe and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2014-10-24 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing, reading, and interpretation are acts of human minds, requiring complex cognition at every point. A relatively new field of studies, cognitive linguistics, focuses on how language and cognition are interconnected: Linguistic structures both shape cognitive patterns and are shaped by them. The Cognitive Linguistics in Biblical Interpretation section of the Society of Biblical Literature gathers scholars interested in applying cognitive linguistics to biblical studies, focusing on how language makes meaning, how texts evoke authority, and how contemporary readers interact with ancient texts. This collection of essays represents first fruits from the first six years (2006–2012) of that effort, drawing on cognitive metaphor study, mental spaces and conceptual blending, narrative theory, and cognitive grammar. Contributors include Eve Sweetser, Ellen van Wolde, Hugo Lundhaug and Jesper T. Nielsen.
