Book excerpt: Sometimes love takes a second glance in this moving novel about a woman who learns that she is not her parents’ child and must reassemble the fragments of her life. When bride-to-be Harri Ryan ends up at the ER with a panic attack on her wedding day, her twin brother, George, jokes that she’s the most glamorous patient there. But this is no joke. It's Harri’s second try at the wedding, and when she returns to her Dublin apartment, her fiancé has already packed his belongings. Harri doesn’t want to lose him, but she doesn’t know how to convince him it won’t happen a third time. George, who knows Harri better than anyone, has a hunch there’s more to the story than cold feet. He confronts their parents, who are acting strangely—as if they’re hiding a secret. And the truth they reluctantly reveal devastates both twins. Now, not only has Harri lost her fiancé, but George’s relationship with his partner begins to fall apart, and both twins have to fight to hold on to those they love and to themselves. As the world they thought they knew crumbles around them, can Harri and George find a way to pick up the pieces before it’s too late? A rich, multi-textured picture of ordinary people swept up in a scandal they never could have imagined, As Sure as the Sun manages to tickle your funny bone, tug at your heartstrings, and remind you never to give up on love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Newbery Honor–winning author of Genesis Begins Again comes a shimmering picture book that shines the light on Zora Neale Hurston, the extraordinary writer and storycatcher extraordinaire who changed the face of American literature. Zora was a girl who hankered for tales like bees for honey. Now, her mama always told her that if she wanted something, “to jump at de sun”, because even though you might not land quite that high, at least you’d get off the ground. So Zora jumped from place to place, from the porch of the general store where she listened to folktales, to Howard University, to Harlem. And everywhere she jumped, she shined sunlight on the tales most people hadn’t been bothered to listen to until Zora. The tales no one had written down until Zora. Tales on a whole culture of literature overlooked…until Zora. Until Zora jumped.

Download or read book A Raisin in the Sun written by Lorraine Hansberry and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-11-02 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Never before, in the entire history of the American theater, has so much of the truth of Black people's lives been seen on the stage," observed James Baldwin shortly before A Raisin in the Sun opened on Broadway in 1959. This edition presents the fully restored, uncut version of Hansberry's landmark work with an introduction by Robert Nemiroff. Lorraine Hansberry's award-winning drama about the hopes and aspirations of a struggling, working-class family living on the South Side of Chicago connected profoundly with the psyche of Black America—and changed American theater forever. The play's title comes from a line in Langston Hughes's poem "Harlem," which warns that a dream deferred might "dry up/like a raisin in the sun." "The events of every passing year add resonance to A Raisin in the Sun," said The New York Times. "It is as if history is conspiring to make the play a classic."

Download or read book The North Wind and the Sun written by – Aesop and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2021-03-22 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who do you think is stronger – the Sun or the North Wind? They both found themselves in a dispute because they both thought that they were strongest. They saw a traveler who was just passing by and they decided that whoever made the man remove his cloak would be proclaimed the strongest. A winner is declared. Who will it be and what is the moral of the story? Find out in Aesop’s fable "The North Wind and the Sun". Aesop's fables feature animals, legendary creatures, plants, inanimate objects, or forces of nature that speak, solve problems, and generally have human characteristics. All the stories story lead to a particular moral lesson. Aesop (620–564 BCE) was a storyteller that was believed to have lived in Ancient Greece. He is celebrated for a number of fables now collectively known as Aesop's Fables. In the few scattered sources about his life, Aesop was described as a slave who by his cleverness acquires freedom and becomes an adviser to kings and city-states. Although Aesop's existence remains unclear, numerous tales credited to him were gathered across the centuries and in many languages in a storytelling tradition that continues to this day.
