Book Synopsis Trampled Blossoms by : Moon Young-Sook
Download or read book Trampled Blossoms written by Moon Young-Sook and published by Seoul Selection . This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young adult novel recounting the devastation of a victim of Japanese military sexual slavery • The first young adult novel to paint a vivid and realistic depiction of the “comfort women” • The story of the young girls whose bodies and souls were trampled in their blossoming youth as they were dragged from their hometowns across foreign lands from Inner Mongolia and Shanghai, China, to Leyte Island in the Philippines Many are familiar with the history of the “comfort women,” the victims of Japanese military sexual slavery, but how much do they really know? Few fully understand exactly why and how the girls came to be “comfort women,” the scope of the assault they endured at the “comfort stations” set up throughout regions colonized by Japan including Korea, and how they lived out their lives after they returned Korea post-liberation. There are limits to how much of the truth can be exposed to children and teens due to the sensitive nature of the subject, which is why previously published children’s and young adult novels that have attempted to address this tragedy fell short of capturing the actual extent of the damage and suffering. Simply acknowledging the tragedy as a historical fact and fully portraying the depth of reality and pain of the victims are vastly different propositions, which makes the publication of Trampled Blossoms, an honest and vivid depiction of the victims’ accounts of sexual slavery under the Japanese military, all the more meaningful. * This is a work of fiction based on true historical facts, in-person interviews, and testimonies of the “comfort women.” The names and details of certain real persons, places, and incidents have been changed in the novel, and all other characters, places, and events are products of the author’s imagination.

Download or read book The Paris Game written by Ray Argyle and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2014-08-02 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a crucial moment in the Second World War, an obscure French general reaches a fateful personal decision: to fight on alone after his government’s flight from Paris and its capitulation to Nazi Germany. Amid the ravages of a world war, three men — a general, a president, and a prime minister — are locked in a rivalry that threatens their partnership and puts the world’s most celebrated city at risk of destruction before it can be liberated. This is the setting of The Paris Game, a dramatic recounting of how an obscure French general under sentence of death by his government launches on the most enormous gamble of his life: to fight on alone after his country’s capitulation to Nazi Germany. In a game of intrigue and double-dealing, Charles de Gaulle must struggle to retain the loyalty of Winston Churchill against the unforgiving opposition of Franklin Roosevelt and the traitorous manoeuvring of a collaborationist Vichy France. How he succeeds in restoring the honour of France and securing its place as a world power is the stuff of raw history, both stirring and engrossing.

Book Synopsis SECOND COMING: RETURN OF THE HERD by : Lobibah Oji Baraka
Download or read book SECOND COMING: RETURN OF THE HERD written by Lobibah Oji Baraka and published by Lobibah Oji Baraka. This book was released on with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his second book, SECOND COMING/Return of the Herd, poet Lobibah Oji Baraka (also known as Gilbert H. Richards) continues his circuitous journey through socio-political and nostalgic spheres with artistic intellect and resonant energy. His poetry has been described as layered, textured, provocative, sensual, reflective, and commemorative. Baraka's persona speaks with an attitude that is genuine and a vibe that is jive. Sometimes fuming, other times funky—but always intriguing and relatable. This book is divided into five sections: Self, Arts, Death, Love, and Society. Baraka writes with a flair for the narrative. His poems possess verbal sophistication that has been described as "sonic deliciousness," while his figurative language is "visually compelling." Second Coming is a culmination of authentic free verse as well as compassionate, reflective prose poetry.

Book Synopsis The Master-Christian by : Marie Corelli
Download or read book The Master-Christian written by Marie Corelli and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-08-10 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Master-Christian is a novel by Marie Corelli. Corelli was an English novelist of the Victorian and Edwardian eras known as a "forefather" of new-age writing. Excerpt: "Lovely to a poet or an artist's eye is the unevenly-built and picturesque square of Rouen in which the Cathedral stands,—lovely, and suggestive of historical romance in all its remote corners, its oddly-shaped houses, its by-ways and crooked little flights of steps leading to nowhere, its gables and slanting roofs, and its utter absence of all structural proportion. A shrine here, a broken statue there,—a half-obliterated coat-of-arms over an old gateway,—a rusty sconce fitted fast into the wall to support a lantern no longer needed in these days of gas and electricity,—an ancient fountain overgrown with weed, or a projecting vessel of stone for holy water, in which small birds bathe and disport themselves after a shower of rain,—those are but a few of the curious fragments of a past time which make the old place interesting to the student, and more than fascinating to the thinker and dreamer."
