Book excerpt: This edited collection explores LGBTQ+ literature for young readers around the world, and connects this literature to greater societal, political, linguistic, historical, and cultural concerns.

The topics include the representation of sexualities and gender identities; depictions of queer families; censorship; links between culture, language and sexuality/gender; translation of LGBTQ+ literature for young readers; and self-publishing.

Download or read book Asian Children s Literature and Film in a Global Age written by Bernard Wilson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-06 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a key analysis of Asian children’s literature and film and creates a dialogue between East and West and between the cultures from which they emerge, within the complex symbiosis of their local, national and transnational frameworks. In terms of location and content the book embraces a broad scope, including contributions related to the Asian-American diaspora, China, India, Indonesia, Iran, Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines, South Korea, Sri Lanka, and Taiwan. Individually and collectively, these essays broach crucial questions: What elements of Asian literature and film make them distinctive, both within their own specific culture and within the broader Asian area? What aspects link them to these genres in other parts of the world? How have they represented and shaped the societies and cultures they inhabit? What moral codes do they address, underpin, or contest? The volume provides further voice to the increasingly diverse and fascinating output of the region and emphasises the importance of Asian art forms as depictions of specific cultures but also of their connection to broader themes in children’s texts, and scholarship within this field.
Download or read book What Kind of Day written by Mina V. Esguerra and published by Bright Girl Books. This book was released on 2018-05-21 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's a bad day for Ben. After years of earnest work, he's been fired from his job as a speechwriter for a Philippine senator. Name tarnished and bridges burned, he steps into what he thinks is a shuttle ride home, and accidentally joins a tour of his own city. It was supposed to be a good day for Naya. Her passion is traveling, her hobby is discovering cool things to see and do, and taking people on tours of Metro Manila is her only job right now. An extra person at the last minute isn't ideal, especially if the person is a former colleague and the subject of the day's hottest political trash fire. But work is work, and she decides to let him stay in the tour. She's hoping she won't regret it. He's hoping his day turns around. What kind of day could it be? Maybe the best kind.

Download or read book Tingle written by Jhoanna Lynn B. Cruz and published by Anvil Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of the forty-nine works in the book were specifically solicited from the writers I know in response to the question, “What makes you tingle as a lesbian?” Literally, the sensation of “slight prickles, stings, or tremors,” the excitement. I purposely didn’t give any more qualifiers to that prompts. I wanted the writers themselves to define the terms and enact them on the page. And while the word “tingle” is a homonym for the Tagalog word for “clitoris,” many of the pieces submitted were not about sex at all. But all the pieces are about a spark of recognition, whether at the beginning, the middle, or the end, that one loves a woman as a woman. Tingle is the flint. Here we are taking our stories of women loving women in our own hands and making ourselves visible on our own terms. When the initial thrill of desire is past, the tingle is ultimately the recognition that what we have found cannot remain in the dark—we must love and be loved in the light.

With a cold, cruel king on the throne, and the battle with demons ever worsening, the weight he bears is crushing. When he finds his beloved cousin brutally murdered, it is one more problem threatening to break him. The very last thing he expects or needs is the prickly necromancer that the Goddess herself bids him cooperate with to solve the mysterious murder. A man who communes with the dead… Koray has been alone all his life, cursed since he was young to be a necromancer, a branch of magic long considered an abomination, forcing him and the other necromancers to live apart, subject to abuse and other cruelties. When he is bid by the Goddess to journey to the royal castle, he wants no part of it—and he especially wants nothing to do with the loud, overbearing Paladin he's supposed to cooperate with. Secrets that threaten to tear a kingdom apart… It doesn't take long for them to realize that solving the mystery of the murder will be the easy part, and that if they cannot uncover secrets old and new, and overcome entrenched prejudices and misunderstandings, it's the whole kingdom that will suffer for their failure.
