Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered what might had happened if John Lennon survived the shooting on December 8, 1980? Would The Beatles have reunited and gone on to create more music? What if their legacy didn't end in 1970? The Beatles Come Together Again is the story of what might have happened if that were the case. The road is long and winding, and the boys are sometimes caught up in again being "a Beatle." Their journey has many surprises, and sometimes life itself presents the biggest obstacles for the band. The events that unfold are not only possible, but in some cases probable. The four unique personalities ebb and flow together - at times one beating heart, at other times four of the most unlikely of friends. Ed David found inspiration in his knowledge of the band and used his extensive musical background to create an entertaining tale of wonder. This debut novel is a refreshing excursion from what is and opens the door to what could have been.
Download or read book Jean written by Martin Gross and published by tredition. This book was released on 2022-12-05 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Jean Gros tells his life story from his youth to his release from captivity as a prisoner of war. He was born in 1922 as the child of German-Romanian settlers, under the name Ioan Grosz, in the Romanian Banat. The family lives in the small village of Ivanda near the city of Timisoara, where they run a small farm. In this environment, characterised by simple living conditions, Ioan experiences a carefree and mostly happy childhood. This ends, however, when he begins a butcher's apprenticeship in a neighbouring village. From now on, he has to face the first hardships of life. However, this period of his life is still proceeding along the usual lines for the time and the region. This all changes abruptly when the Third Reich sets out to recruit new soldiers from the ranks of the Romanian Germans. Ioan also gets caught up in the mills of the Nazi war machine, and like most of his compatriots, ends up in the Waffen SS. As the book progresses, it describes his traumatic war experiences and the depriving circumstances under which the missions are carried out. During his sorties he is also wounded several times. Despite all adversity, he tries to maintain contact with his family and childhood sweetheart, but this is not always successful, and the uncertainty about his family's circumstances becomes his constant companion. The war ends for him with another wound and years of imprisonment. The vivid description of the events takes the reader on a journey through Jean's life, which is exemplary for that of many young Romanian-Germans of that era. The reader also gets an impression of the way of life and the further fate of this ethnic community.
Book Synopsis Story Time at Hanwell Book 2 by : Agaba Samuel Rujumba
Download or read book Story Time at Hanwell Book 2 written by Agaba Samuel Rujumba and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2019-03-27 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Rudisha is a young Kenyan priest in waiting from Maasai. He is sent to England by his local diocese to complete his pastoral duties before being ordained in the Roman Catholic Church. But soon his journey to priesthood is tested by a stumbling block of four talented orphans and their mother, who need a father figure, and a mentor as an answer to their prayer. Will the priest in waiting forsake their love and betray their trust after reintroducing them to a world of happiness they had lost? Will he leave behind the blossoming affection towards the widow? The Bishop thinks the young priest in waiting is a perfect father for the four children, while the neighbour admires their family life. But Paul doesn’t see it that way and so, he must protect his priesthood career at any cost- Even if it means completing his assignment in Kenya, so he can be far from a daring and glaring temptation. Double pulled by the love for the four children and a pursuit for his career, Paul must make a choice acceptable to God- A decision he will never regret. “Nothing happens by coincidence. There must be a supernatural force against evil that controls matter, time, space as well as our thoughts in giving shape and direction to the unfolding events as they happen on earth. Absolutely nothing other than the immortal can be responsible for such control. This justifies my thoughts for the existence of a force so strong and mighty, incomprehensible, a force far greater than our understanding and imaginations, a supernatural existence in control of all that is seemingly complex and mind blowing as par my other stories which are based on true life’s events.” Agaba Samuel Rujumba.

Book Synopsis Mothers who Kill Their Children by : Cheryl L. Meyer
Download or read book Mothers who Kill Their Children written by Cheryl L. Meyer and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on an extensive review of the newspaper, medical and social science literature, the authors propose a comprehensive typology of maternal filicide, answering the question - Why? What would drive a mother to kill her own child?. These mothers are not a homogenous group. In obvious ways, intervention strategies should differ for a teenager who denies her pregnancy and then kills her newborn and a mother who kills her two toddlers out of mental illness or to further a relationship. This typology will help to distinguish the different cases that commonly occur and the patterns they follow in order to make more effective prevention and treatment planning possible.

Download or read book Hong Kong Cantopop written by Yiu-Wai Chu and published by Hong Kong University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cantopop was once the leading pop genre of pan-Chinese popular music around the world. In this pioneering study of Cantopop in English, Yiu-Wai Chu shows how the rise of Cantopop is related to the emergence of a Hong Kong identity and consciousness. Chu charts the fortune of this important genre of twentieth-century Chinese music from its humble, lower-class origins in the 1950s to its rise to a multimillion-dollar business in the mid-1990s. As the voice of Hong Kong, Cantopop has given generations of people born in the city a sense of belonging. It was only in the late 1990s, when transformations in the music industry, and more importantly, changes in the geopolitical situation of Hong Kong, that Cantopop showed signs of decline. As such, Hong Kong Cantopop: A Concise History is not only a brief history of Cantonese pop songs, but also of Hong Kong culture. The book concludes with a chapter on the eclipse of Cantopop by Mandapop (Mandarin popular music), and an analysis of the relevance of Cantopop to Hong Kong people in the age of a dominant China. Drawing extensively from Chinese-language sources, this work is a most informative introduction to Hong Kong popular music studies. “Few scholars I know of have as thorough a knowledge of Cantopop as Yiu-Wai Chu. The account he provides here—of pop music as a nexus of creative talent, commoditized culture, and geopolitical change—is not only a story about postwar Hong Kong; it is also a resource for understanding the term ‘localism’ in the era of globalization.” —Rey Chow, Duke University “Yiu-Wai Chu’s book presents a remarkable accomplishment: it is not only the first history of Cantopop published in English; it also manages to interweave the sound of Cantopop with the geopolitical changes taking place in East Asia. Combining a lucid theoretical approach with rich empirical insights, this book will be a milestone in the study of East Asian popular cultures.” —Jeroen de Kloet, University of Amsterdam
Download or read book Good Fortune written by Li Keng Wong and published by Holiday House. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dramatic memoir of early-twentieth century immigration, author Li Keng Wong shares her family's difficult journey from rural China to a new life in California. In 1933, seven-year-old Li Keng's life changed forever when her father decided to bring his family from a small village in southern China to California. Getting to America was not easy, as their family faced America's strict anti-Chinese immigration laws that meant any misstep could mean deportation and disgrace. Life in America during the Great Depression brought many exciting surprises as well as many challenges. Hunger, poverty, police raids, frequent moves, and the occasional sting of racism were a part of everyday life, but slowly Li Keng and her family found stability and a true home in "Gold Mountain." An author's note contains photos and an update on Li Keng Wong's family. This evocative memoir presents the joys and sorrows of pursuing the American Dream during a time of racism and great poverty, but also immense opportunity. The book also contains information on Angel Island and its significance in history as well as an explanation of the Chinese Exclusion Act.
Book Synopsis GEOFFREY CHAUCER’S CANTERBURY TALES by : Geoffrey Chaucer
Download or read book GEOFFREY CHAUCER’S CANTERBURY TALES written by Geoffrey Chaucer and published by Industrial Systems Research. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the ISR Modernized Poetic Masterpieces series – an easier-to-read current language version of the 14th-century classic William Caxton used the newly invented printing press to publish the first printed edition of The Canterbury Tales in 1476. This brought the work within reach of a mass audience and created a lasting impact on the English language and literature. Welcome to this version of the tales – translating them into modern English to improve their accessibility, readability, and understanding today. The book is a captivating collection of stories told by a diverse group of pilgrims (including Chaucer himself) on their way to Canterbury. The tales explore a rich tapestry of themes – from romance and humor to tragedy and religious reflections. Readers get a vivid glimpse into the lives, beliefs, and values of medieval English folk. Chaucer sets the stage for the unfolding tales in his masterfully crafted Prologue. This introduces the array of larger-than-life characters that will seek to captivate the audience with their stories. The pilgrims present their individual tales in turn – followed by candid comments and criticisms from the other travelers. The stories are wide-ranging. The Knight's Tale portrays an epic competition between Palamon and Arcite for the love of Emelye and delves into romantic ideals, chivalry, and the role of fate. The bawdy and irreverent Miller's Tale records the escapades of a carpenter, his young wife, and a cunning student. The Reeve's Tale is a story of deceit and revenge. Two students seduce a dishonest miller's wife and daughter and create a web of greed, deception, and lust. The unfinished Cook's Tale relates how a dishonest cook turns to a life of violent crime after losing his position. The Man of Law's Tale recounts the troubles of a virtuous woman – Constance – whose piety and moral virtue finally lead to triumph. The Wife of Bath's Tale delves into themes of redemption, forgiveness, gender, power, and sexuality. The Friar's Tale shared by Hubert the Friar features a corrupt Summoner and the Devil. The Summoner's Tale serves as retaliation to the previous story. It tells of a hypocritical friar who receives a nasty surprise while seeking a gift from an ailing old man. The Clerk's Tale centers on the patient and virtuous Griselda who endures many trials and hardships at the hands of Walter her husband, yet remains devoted to him. The Merchant's Tale follows the story of the wealthy and aging January's struggles to control his deceptive young wife, May. The romantic Squire's Tale set in a magical kingdom with noble knights, dragons, and giants features a young knight-in-training and a beautiful queen. The Franklin's Tale, recounted by a wealthy landowner (the Franklin) centers around two noble and virtuous lovers, Dorigen and Arveragus, whose love faces challenges from a third party. The Doctor's Tale recounts a nobleman's decision to kill his own daughter to save her from a corrupt judge's clutches, and his later acquittal of murder by a jury of peers. The Pardoner's Tale explores themes of greed, deception, and mortality through the tale of three murderous rioters who meet a tragic end. The bawdy and humorous Shipman's Tale highlights deceit, revenge, infidelity, and a clever female servant's tactics to gain valuable goods from a monk. The Prioress's Tale depicts the martyrdom of a young Christian boy by Jews for his faith. It reflects the anti-Semitic sentiments of the time while highlighting religious devotion and portraying the Prioress as a multifaceted character with worldly desires. The incomplete Tale of Sir Thopas is a parody of medieval romance literature, featuring an inept knight's quest to win the love of a fairy queen and his meetings with magical creatures along the way. The Tale of Melibius retells a moralistic story popular in medieval times, stressing the importance of wisdom, patience, and forgiveness for aggrieved victims of crimes. The Monk's Tale presents brief biographical sketches of famous individuals whose pride and arrogance led to their downfall. The lively and humorous Nun's Priest's Tale uses the story of a rooster outwitting a fox to explore themes of pride, flattery, and cunning. The Second Nun's Tale centers on Saint Cecilia, a Christian martyr from Rome in the 3rd century, who fearlessly defies the pagan authorities and sacrifices her life for her faith. The Canon's Yeoman's Tale is about a fraudulent alchemist known as "Canon" who exploits gullible individuals by pretending to transform base metals into gold. The Manciple's Tale is an intriguing story of a snow-white talking crow that undergoes a transformation after its remorseful keeper unjustly blames it for driving him to commit a terrible act. The final Parson's Tale is a sermon on human sin, its prevalence, and the need for overcoming it through personal conviction, repentance, and faith in a loving and gracious God.

Book Synopsis Resistance, Flight, Creation by : Dorothea Olkowski
Download or read book Resistance, Flight, Creation written by Dorothea Olkowski and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirteen women at the forefront of philosophy locate new feminist points of view within the discipline by rigorously engaging works of contemporary French philosophy. In so doing, they both transform the standard practices of the field and carve out new territory. These writers amplify the work of feminist philosophers such as Simone de Beauvoir, Luce Irigaray, and Sarah Kofman in ways that are both stylistically and substantively creative. They also appropriate for radical feminist use the works of male philosophers such as Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and Jean-Paul Sartre.The essays illustrate the manner in which feminist philosophers bypass traditional methodology in favor of a disciplinary freedom characterized by fluid methodologies--best exemplified in Beauvoir's work--and by the employment of imaginative forms, including the autobiographical and the poetic. The modes of inquiry used here range variously from psychoanalysis and existentialism to deconstruction, post-structuralism, and newly resurgent phenomenology. This volume also contains a comprehensive bibliography of feminist thinkers who are enacting French philosophy in English, German, and French.
