【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Midnight_Muse Venerated Verse【電子書籍】[ Betty Bownath ]

＜p＞Midnight_Muse/Venerated Verse a collection of poems by Betty Bownath, is a kind of Dantean exploration into the deepest recesses of the human spirit and like Dante, she emerges into light after harrowing experiences of the earthly kind. The longest poem, On the Cusp of Rebirth, is an ambitious trek of one persons struggle with life and all that it throws at us.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This is not a collection of cloying saccharine sweetness, but neither is it a refl ection of defeatism in the face of adversity. In fact what comes through is an honest look at ourselves and those with whom we surround ourselves; and what emerges is a portrait of ordinary lives on singular journeys. Some of the poems are whimsical observations of people in the routines of simple life experiences. These are poems that show an acutely observant eye for the ordinary and the spectacular.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Trevor Lauten (Literary Critic and Proofreader) Hong Kong＜/p＞ ＜p＞With the best words in the best order, Bownath tugs at our emotions in a poetry landscape vividly populated with familiar blooms of love, loss, friendship and family. Her poems reveal a solitary intimacy with the self, a love of life and a deep understanding of the human psyche.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Lesley Shepherd Author: Shakespeares Global Sevens (New Zealand)＜/p＞ ＜p＞Bownaths poems convey the tender depth of a modern woman transient in world cities evoking the question of home in poems like Refl ection and If Wishes Were Horses. She explores the deep emotions of pain, parting, loss, and sleepless nightmares in Escape and Revelation. Her poems are skilfully balanced between light and dark, the light-heartedness of Spring juxtaposed with a love-hate musing on Rain.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Leela Devi Panikar Author of Bathing Elephants and Floating Petals www.leela.net＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Heartland【電子書籍】[ Ana Simo ]

＜p＞＜strong＞In a word-drunk romp through an alternate, pre-apocalyptic United States, Ana Simo’s fiction debut, ＜em＞Heartland＜/em＞, is the uproarious story of a thwarted writer’s elaborate revenge on the woman who stole her lover, blending elements of telenovela, pulp noir, and dystopian satire.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞There’s only one solution for a nasty case of writer’s block, and that’s murder. Specifically, that of one Mercy McCabe, a cunning SoHo art dealer who was once our Latina narrator’s rival for the scrumptious Bebe. When she discovers that McCabe has squandered Bebe’s affections after stealing her away, revenge is not enough: she must admit her guilt, sentence herself, and beg for her own execution, Soviet-style.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the all-too-terrifyingly-familiar America of ＜em＞Heartland＜/em＞, the inconceivable has become ordinary: corruption and greed at the top have led to mass starvation in the heartland; hordes of refugees have escaped from resettlement camps and attack the cities; a puritanical Caliphate has toppled Constantinople, with America in its sights. Meanwhile, escaping her New York life in disguise, our heroine lures McCabe to her home turf: a hilltop house in the Great Plains where her parents worked as domestic servants. Her nemesis, though, is slippery, and McCabe disappears, threatening to ruin a homicidal masterplan so detailed as to be akin to love.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Heartland＜/em＞ is a hilarious, genre-defying debut that confronts taboos of race, assimilation, and sex through a high-voltage tale of love, language, and revenge.＜/p＞ ＜p＞PRAISE FOR HEARTLAND＜/p＞ ＜p＞"This novel is singularly difficult to classify. Is it lesbian noir? Slapstick dystopia? Midwestern gothic? To say that it’s all of the above is not to exhaust the list of genres Simo straddles and, maybe, invents.... What holds everything together is Simo’s inventive and unapologetically irreverent voice…. Original, profane, and discomfiting."＜/p＞ ＜p＞ーKirkus Reviews＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Eschewing labels and defying expectations, Simo slyly confronts race, sexuality, multigenerational duty, immigrant dislocation, and even dirty politics while spinning a bizarrely spectacular, outlandishly disorienting (not-)love-story of lost, searching souls."＜/p＞ ＜p＞ーTerry Hong, ＜em＞Booklist＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞ABOUT THE AUTHOR＜/p＞ ＜p＞Ana Simo is the author of a dozen plays, a short feature film, and countless articles.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】I Left My Heart At Stanford . . .【電子書籍】[ Don Coover III ]

＜p＞The impact of being born six weeks prematurely with an inherited connective tissue disorder wasn't completely understood until later in life. As a child, Don was always aware of having a tender skin which would cut and become traumatized very easily. With proper precautions in life style and his guarded approach to physical activities, he could lead a fairly normal life. This continued to be the situation until reaching his mid forties, when his life suddenly took a dramatic turn. Don ended up in a hospital emergency room, only to find out he had congestive heart failure due to the connective tissue disorder, which was referred to as Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. It was learned this inherited disorder is represented by faulty collagen, which is a protein in the body acting as a glue in holding tissues together. Without this "glue," bodily organs can become affected, as was the case with his heart. With the diagnosis, Don was informed by his cardiologist, that in all probability, someday he would be headed for a heart transplant. The following sixteen years involved leading a very controlled and finely choreographed existence with prescriptions and diet constraints, all while undergoing various medical procedures, which included the implantation of two difibrillators and an open heart valve repair, in the hopes of warding off the impending transplant. Along the way, he developed issues with bladder function and with kidney failure. Consequently, after all avenues had been exhausted, a transplant was performed at Stanford University Hospital in 2006. However, the first transplanted heart did not begin pumping on its own and Don was immediately placed on life support while waiting for another heart. He was fortunate to stay alive long enough to receive the second heart. Because of being placed on life support before the second transplant and being kept in an induced coma for six weeks after the transplant, Don was little more than a vegetable. He had to relearn many of his motor skills, including the ability to swallow, talk, walk, dress himself, and attend to his personal hygiene. When his original heart failed, the kidneys also failed, and Don was immediately placed on dialysis, which he continued needing during six long, arduous months recovering at Stanford and after returning home. As if the heart ordeal wasn't enough, he returns to Stanford a year later for a kidney transplant, after spending much of his time in a dialysis chair, while his wife submits to months of rigorous testing in order to donate a kidney to him.＜br /＞ This ends up being the ultimate feel good story, because against many odds, his inner strength, determination, and strong will carried him through. More importantly, is witnessing the compassion and caring of an excellent medical community, and the unwavering support of a loving wife, children, family, and many friends. This true-life story is told in two view points; one by Don and the other by his wife, Mary. Organ donation is the ultimate gift of love!＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞During fourteen years Hepworth Closs had been a wanderer over the earth.＜/p＞ ＜p＞When he was carried out from the court-room after Mrs. Yates' confession of a crime which he had shrinkingly believed committed by another, he had fainted from the suddenness with which a terrible load had been lifted from his soul.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In that old woman's guilt he had no share. It swept the blackness from the marriage he had protested against as hideously wicked. The wrong he had done was divested of the awful responsibilities which had seemed more than he could bear.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Bulfinchs Mythology: The Age of Fable, The Age of Chivalry, and Legends of Charlemagne (Illustrated Edition)【電子書籍】[ Thomas Bulfinch ]

Thomas Bulfinch (July 15, 1796 - May 27, 1867) might never be as well known as his famous father, Charles Bulfinch, who was the architect of the Massachusetts State House and also worked on the U.S. Capitol building in Washington D.C. However, Bulfinch was successful in his own right, working at a bank while also spending time writing. Bulfinch reorganized Psalms to create a history of the Hebrews, but he is best known for Bulfinchs Mythology, which is comprised of The Age of Fable, The Age of Chivalry, and Legends of Charlemagne. Relying on writers like Ovid and Virgil, Bulfinchs motive was to make mythology more popular. In that, he succeeded, as his works are still popular more than 150 years after they debuted. This edition of Bulfinchs Mythology is specially formatted with a Table of Contents and is illustrated with dozens of Bulfinch and mythological characters.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】No Time for Commas【電子書籍】[ D. Steven Russell ]

＜p＞No Time for Commas is an alcoholic story for the vigilant reader. Forged in simplicity and fired with metaphor, it examines both the nature and the heart of addiction. It is nostalgic and personal, yet reflective, glued with shared human feelings and timeless principles. It is, plainly stated, about living life fully and finally loving the thumbprints one was given.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Sober or drunk, all alcoholics and addicts have trouble with perception and reality. But, alcoholics don't wake up one morning as a child and suddenly know that they are alcoholic; they are busy being children, and ー like other children ー are innocent until they are one day, unfairly, yet inevitably, stained by life. Alcoholics don't show up in high school and calculate a life of addiction and failure; they are busy learning about love, needing acceptance and masking a fear of humanness.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As addiction ages, fueled with immaturity, the childlike sip of a first drink and the buzz of a young party have faded. The alcoholic mind is now rage, isolation, darkness and hopelessness - or perhaps, deluded hope. There is no comma to this drink. The alcoholic also knows he's hiding shame with a growing mask, and drinks more to know of it. More drinks, more shame. More shame, more mask. With God, or without Him, this man is alone. But then, for some reason...he stops.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This is not a "how-to" book, though "how-to" can be found in it. This is not a book about darkness, though darkness has a deep purpose in it. This is not a book about light, though its light is unquenchable. This is a book about life. It is a book about whirlwinds becoming tornadoes, hopelessness becoming isolation and brokenness becoming a peaceful still. It is a glimpse at finding soul mates and of honest human mirrors.＜/p＞ ＜p＞It is not a story of getting sober and life being grand. It is a look back after some years of sober experience. It is a book about awakening, and reawakening...about hope, hopelessness, getting back up, doing it again...a day at a time, a pause at a time, an action at a time - relearning life itself - until you are true to your thumbprints.＜/p＞ ＜p＞People stop drinking every day. You can stop. Your child or your loved one can stop. This book offers that pause, that comma. Addiction knows no commas. Sobriety is one...shaped amazingly like one's own, slightly bent, uniquely printed, upwardly pointed, thumb.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞In a college room at Cambridge University in 1920 twenty four young men, who had heard Gods call to the mission field, knew they wanted to keep in touch after they had gone their separate, God-appointed ways. They had formed a close bond during the previous years at Cambridge as they prayed together, studied their Bibles together and shared their faith in Jesus Christ with fellow students, calling themselves the Cambridge University Missionary Band (C.U.M.B.).

It led to a series of violent incidents that culminated in the Vendetta Ride, in which Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and several other gunslingers went after their rivals the Cowboys. Like most tales of the Wild West, the facts are buried under layers of myth, and the line between good guys and bad guys is blurry. Wyatt Earp, leader of the so-called “good guys”, was charged with stealing horses in the Indian Territory in 1870 and jumped bail. Becoming a buffalo hunter and gambler, he got into several scrapes and earned a reputation as a gunfighter. Several times he helped lawmen arrest outlaws, but usually his assistance came more because of a personal grudge against the criminal than any real respect for law and order. He even got fired from a police job in Wichita for beating up a political rival.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
