Download or read book The Black Heart written by Jamie Reynolds and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Black Heart by Jamie Reynolds Mandy is packing and moving with her family from Mexico to California. Her father has finally received legal permission to move to the States and start a business with his brother. Mandy has mixed emotions about a lot of things, including being overwhelmed with thoughts about the possibility of consequences of her pregnancy, which she hasn’t divulged to anyone. Meanwhile in California, Janie is working hard in the corporate world. Her husband is abusive, contrary to Janie having the biggest heart and trying to cope. Mandy and Janie never meet, but they do have a relationship at different points in time with Alex, the good looking chef. Both of these women come to realize that Alex has a very angry temperament, and he could be the demise for one, if not both of them. The Black Heart gently provides an understanding of what anger means when spelled with a ‘D’, for ‘danger’. Author, Jamie Reynolds wants women (and men) to benefit through sharing her perspective and awareness of what one could risk - self and loved ones - when embracing a relationship with a person who isn’t capable of caring about others, but only wants to satisfy his/her own interests. It contains interesting characters that the reader can relate to, or be drawn to, because of the personal life challenges and obstacles that the characters overcome through sheer necessity. The paragraphs of story are interspersed with touching and sometimes sharp dialog and provide a vivid feel for the environment that the characters are immersed in.

His journey takes him through masonry work in the hot sun, a police arrest, court hearings and stays at both a forensic correctional facility and a state mental hospital.

Download or read book A Bloody and Barbarous God written by Petra Mundik and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2016-05-15 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Bloody and Barbarous God investigates the relationship between gnosticism, a system of thought that argues that the cosmos is evil and that the human spirit must strive for liberation from manifest existence, and the perennial philosophy, a study of the highest common factor in all esoteric religions, and how these traditions have influenced the later novels of Cormac McCarthy, namely, Blood Meridian, All the Pretty Horses, The Crossing, Cities of the Plain, No Country for Old Men, and The Road. Mundik argues that McCarthy continually strives to evolve an explanatory theodicy throughout his work, and that his novels are, to a lesser or greater extent, concerned with the meaning of human existence in relation to the presence of evil and the nature of the divine.

Billy Dean is a secret child. He has a beautiful young mother and a father who arrives at night carrying the scents of candles and incense and cigarettes. Birds fly to his window. Mice run out from his walls. His world is a carpet, a bed, pictures of the holy island, and a single locked door. His father fills his mind and his dreams with mysterious tales and memories and dreadful warnings. But then his father disappears, and Billy’s mother brings him out into the world at last. He learns the horrifying story of what was saved and what was destroyed on the day he was born, the day the bombers came to Blinkbonny. The kind butcher, Mr. McCaufrey, and the medium, Missus Malone, are waiting for him. He becomes The Angel Child, one who can heal the living, contact the dead, bring comfort to a troubled world.

Download or read book Unprotected written by Billy Porter and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the incomparable Emmy, Grammy, and Tony Award winner, a powerful and revealing autobiography about race, sexuality, art, and healing—now in paperback It’s easy to be yourself when who and what you are is in vogue. But growing up Black and gay in America has never been easy. Before Billy Porter was slaying red carpets and giving an iconic Emmy-winning performance in the celebrated TV show Pose; before he was the groundbreaking Tony and Grammy Award–winning star of Broadway’s Kinky Boots; and before he was an acclaimed recording artist, actor, playwright, director, and all-around legend, Porter was a young boy in Pittsburgh who was seen as different, who didn’t fit in. At five years old, Porter was sent to therapy to “fix” his effeminacy. He was endlessly bullied at school, sexually abused by his stepfather, and criticized at his church. Porter came of age in a world where simply being himself was a constant struggle. Billy Porter’s Unprotected is the life story of a singular artist and survivor in his own words. It is the story of a boy whose talent and courage opened doors for him, but only a crack. It is the story of a teenager discovering himself, learning his voice and his craft amid deep trauma. And it is the story of a young man whose unbreakable determination led him through countless hard times to where he is now; a proud icon who refuses to back down or hide. Porter is a multitalented, multifaceted treasure at the top of his game, and Unprotected is a resonant, inspirational story of trauma and healing, shot through with his singular voice.
