Download or read book After Dawn written by Mcebisi Jonas and published by Pan MacMillan. This book was released on 2019-08 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 2015, the Gupta brothers offered Mcebisi Jonas the position of minister of finance in exchange for R600 million. Then deputy minister of finance, Jonas turned down the bribe and a period of deep introspection followed for him. How did we reach this point, and what did the future hold for South Africa's democracy and the economy? In After Dawn, Mcebisi Jonas analyses the crisis at the heart of our current system, which places politics at the centre of policymaking and implementation at the expense of growth. In this important and authoritative book, Jonas first unpacks and analyses the current badlands of the South African economic and political landscape. In the second half, Jonas proposes a series of workable and practical solutions for transitioning South Africa into a growing, job-creating country including: Putting inclusive growth at the centre of economic policy; rapidly expanding new technological capacities and knowledge to transition to a twenty-first-century economy; expanding human capabilities at scale; path-changing trade-offs to catalyse the next phase of South Africa's development; nurturing a corruption-free, high-performance state built on meritocracy and innovation; and changing the nature of politics. Time is of the essence and the window of opportunity is narrowing for all South Africans to work together towards the South Africa we all imagined was possible in 1994.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who needs Prince Charming? Dragons are much better company. If her fairy godmother hadn't run off, if her father hadn't lost his mind, if her mother had lived—maybe Ivy would have been a proper princess. But as it is she has no time for dignified pursuits like needlework or harp lessons, when she could be roaming the wilds of the kingdom of Ardendale, playing with the servants' children, and reading old tales of glory. But there's one tradition Ivy can't escape: on her fourteenth birthday, she is to be imprisoned in a tower guarded by a fierce dragon, and the first valiant prince to come slay the beast will win her hand in marriage. Maybe she could resign herself to it—until she uncovers Prince Romil's wicked plan to murder her and her father, and turn their lush kingdom into the heart of his empire. Locked away, there's only one ally Ivy can turn to—the fierce, monstrous beast keeping her trapped in her tower. But it turns out the dragon Elridge is better at solving word puzzles than breathing fire. . . . and maybe this unconventional pair is exactly what the kingdom needs. Full of humor and high adventure—and plenty of slightly skewed fairy-tale motifs—this frothy fractured fairy tale is sure to delight young readers.

Download or read book Came the Dawn written by Wallace Wood and published by Fantagraphics Books. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking its title from one of Wallace Wood’s all-time classics, the evil little paranoid thriller “Came the Dawn,” this collection features page after page after page of Wood’s sleek and meticulously crafted artwork put in the service of cunning twist-ending stories, most often from the typewriter of EC editor Al Feldstein. These tales range from supernatural shockers from the pages of Tales From the Cryptand The Haunt of Fear (“The Living Corpse,” “Terror Ride,” “Man From the Grave,” “Horror in the Freak Tent”) to often pointedly contemporary crime thrillers from Crime SuspenStories (“The Assault,” “The Whipping,” and “Confession,” which was singled out for specific excoriation in the anti-comics screed Seduction of the Innocent, thus giving it a special cachet), but the breathtaking art and whiplash-inducing shock endings are constants throughout.
Download or read book Dawn written by Sevgi Soysal and published by Archipelago. This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A searing autobiographical novel about a single night in prison suggests how broken spirits can be mended, and dreams rebuilt through imagination and human kindness “Like Pamuk’s Snow, Dawn is the Turkish tragedy writ small. In contrast to Snow, it places gender at its heart.” --Maureen Freely In Dawn, translated into English for the first time, legendary Turkish feminist Sevgi Soysal brings together dark humor, witty observations, and trenchant criticism of social injustice, militarism, and gender inequality. As night falls in Adana, köftes and cups of cloudy raki are passed to the dinner guests in the home of Ali – a former laborer who gives tight bear hugs, speaks with a southeastern lilt, and radiates the spirit of a child. Among the guests are a journalist named Oya, who has recently been released from prison and is living in exile on charges of leftist sympathizing, and her new acquaintance, Mustafa. A swift kick knocks down the front door and bumbling policemen converge on the guests, carting them off to holding cells, where they’ll be interrogated and tortured throughout the night. Fear spools into the anxious, claustrophobic thoughts of a return to prison, just after tasting freedom. Bristling snatches of Oya’s time in prison rush back – the wild curses and wilder laughter of inmates, their vicious quarrels and rapturous belly-dancing, or the quiet boon of a cup of tea. Her former inmates created fury and joy out of nothing. Their brimming resilience wills Oya to fight through the night and is fused with every word of this blazing, lucid novel.
Download or read book Dawn After Dark written by Daisaku Ikeda and published by I.B. Tauris. This book was released on 2007-10-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the earliest days of human history, and in all cultures, religion and art have always complemented one another. But the intellectual and spiritual dimension of this interaction has all too often been taken for granted and is never properly explored. Rarely has the dialogue between religion and art been better examined than in this book. In their profound and moving conversations, philosopher of aesthetics Rene Huyghe and Buddhist leader Daisaki Ikeda compare modes of thought from the opposite ends of the earth: from traditions, cultures and religions as different from each other as can be. Their guiding theme is the rediscovery of a common humanity through the artistic intuition and religious impulse shared by all peoples. The Dialogue ranges widely, analysing the contemporary predicament from twin perspectives of beauty and the divine. Huyghe and Ikeda look to active solutions to this predicament - at the key to harmony in life, and at the means of reforming our inner lives. Discussing artistic creativity, its spiritual value, and the differing arts of East and West, the interlocutors conclude by evaluating the crucial role played by religion in helping humanity come to terms with the mysteries and challenges of the unknown.
