Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Included in the New York Times’ preview of 2019 international literature “A wise, lonely novel . . . [and an] honest reflection of exile.” —The New Yorker In the tradition of Roberto Bolaño’s Savage Detectives, a celebrated classic and heart-wrenching story of a family torn apart by the forces of history, by one of Latin America’s most celebrated writers The late Mario Benedetti’s work was often ranked with “such esteemed Latin American writers as Gabriel García Márquez, Carlos Fuentes and Julio Cortázar” (The Washington Post) and his novel The Truce has sold millions of copies around the world. His extraordinary novel Springtime in a Broken Mirror revolves around Santiago, a political prisoner in Uruguay, who was jailed after a brutal military coup that saw many of his comrades flee elsewhere. Santiago, feeling trapped, can do nothing but write letters to his family and try to stay sane. Far away, his nine-year-old daughter Beatrice wonders at the marvels of 1970s Buenos Aires, but her grandpa and mother—Santiago’s beautiful, careworn wife, Graciela—struggle to adjust to a life in exile. Published now for the first time in English, Springtime in a Broken Mirror tells with tenderness and fury of the indelible imprint politics leaves on individual lives. Generous and unflinching, it asks whether the broken bonds of family and history can ever truly be mended. Written by one of the masters of the Latin American novel, this is the story of a fractured continent, chronicled through the lives of a single family.

Book excerpt: Tony Alum's Images from a Broken Mirror is a factional account of the fractious, violent, vicious circle in which African immigrants are trapped in Europe. Set in France and Italy, the story dwells on the trafficking of Nigerian women to Italy. Using the persona, Efe, a trafficked Nigerian girl, the author explores the pressures that come together to propel the men and women, young and old, from Africa to Europe. Efe goes through the tedious and dangerous life of an immigrant commercial sex worker in Italy. She falls in love with Carlo, her first client. Carlo proposes marriage to Efe who accepts and becomes pregnant. However, Efe takes a decision, in a moment of frustration, that will change her destiny, that of Carlo and the unborn child.

They've landed to do battle with the Japanese soldiers on the island, but in short order, they begin to realize that the forbidding battleground holds an ancient secret a hundred times more terrifying than any enemy army---especially when they start finding the bodies. Flash-forward to July 2008. In the slums---and the skyscrapers---of Boston, a new kind of depraved serial killer is stalking human prey and terrifying the city. The bodies have been found posed and mutilated in bizarre ways that the two police officers in charge of the case have never seen before---and never want to see again. Are the two scenarios connected? Detectives Jefferson and Brogan have no idea that to solve the biggest case of their careers, their investigation must take them around the world and through time and history---from a mysterious salvaged submarine with a shocking secret, to an inhumane prison where the inmates are even more scared than usual of "the Pit," and finally back to the beginning: the sinister island in the South Seas where something inhuman has been biding its time. Matthew B.J. Delaney's Jinn won the 2003 International Horror Guild Award for Best First Novel.
Download or read book Seraphic Love written by Likha Caral and published by Maybeify. This book was released on 2023-05-07 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘’ The brain has a unique function’’. It was December the journey of icy morning peering slowly moving dusky lights from clouds. As I said “the brain has a unique function’’ my brain pressures me for mounting on the theme of Love this winter. Love; is one thing that inspired the greatest of poets and playwrights like Rumi, Pablo Neruda, John Keats, Emily Bronte, Shakespeare, Oscar Wilde, Robert Burns, etc. Their writing is the reflection of their composition of words and the content they offer to readers. Therefore I choose this theme as a capsule for my co-author; as we know love is a basic human need though it complicates emotion at the same time, but love is a hard to define emotion like the painting of Picasso a brilliant and wonderful art tell us one thing about love, as he quotes’’Love is the greatest refreshment in life” it is a feeling which all humankind experienced in life. I define love as a universal language that will never lose its significance or beauty. Love suits each and every person differently whether love is between lovers, friends, family, or nature it is an overwhelming emotion that can be experienced in many ways. The concept of love has a variety of feelings, emotions, and behaviours. It is a desire to love and care other in a hard wired and deep- hearted. Love is an unimaginable and also it can never be summarized by an action neither it can ever be expressed by words.

Book excerpt: Can desire really transform reality? From award-winning novelist Jonathan Coe and distinguished Italian artist Chiara Coccorese comes The Broken Mirror, a political parable for children, a contemporary fairy tale for adults, and a fable for all ages. One day Claire, to escape her quarrelsome parents, takes refuge in the dump behind her house. There she finds a broken mirror, a nasty piece of sharp glass... yet she is strangely drawn to it. She soon discovers it has the power to transform even the most drab reality into a fairy-tale world: the grey sky is reflected blue, and Claire’s modest, suburban house is transformed into the most beautiful castle. As Claire grows older, always accompanied by her magic mirror, she can see her face without her teenage acne, and her town before it fell victim to thieving property developers. But, in reality, libraries are being turned into luxury flats wherever she looks, and the boy Claire loves is instead her worst enemy. Frustrated and angry with the mirror’s illusions, Claire is about to destroy it when the mysterious Peter steps in: he has also found a shard of broken mirror, and so begins their journey to piece together the larger puzzle... Previously published in Italian, French, Greek and Dutch, The Broken Mirror comes to life in English for the first time, to be read with equal pleasure by children and adults.
Download or read book Faces Within the Mirror written by Barbara Hudson and published by . This book was released on 2012-08-29 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you courageous enough to face your mirror? A mirror can be a deceptive object, projecting imagery that could easily be mistaken as an illusion. When it’s faced, from a distance, our beauty is inevitable. Close up, we see imperfections that require foundation, concealer, eyeliner, and lipstick—anything that can make up or make over who we are naturally. With each season of our life, we grow and mature unless we’ve experienced circumstances that have left us paralyzed—afraid to face our fears and mistakes, and afraid to deal with the reality of life. Faces Within the Mirror is a memoir that chronicles the tumultuous seasons of one woman’s journey—molestation, men, money, promiscuity, physical and emotional abuse, and adultery. All these realities were faced in her search for just the opposite, love. Fighting beyond the fear of being judged for her torrid past, Barbara Hudson chose to document the intimate details of the shame and guilt that kept her bound emotionally and physically for years. Innocence, Broken, Discovery, and Awakening, each are milestones she reached as she transitioned through pain. Through the words written on these pages, she has exchanged detrimental experiences that contributed to her long-term demise for an opportunity to inspire others to live beyond their circumstances. Barbara desires to challenge anyone reading this book to relinquish the victim mentality, face the mirror, and begin living a fulfilling peaceful life. Don’t expect the typical male-bashing-woe-is-me-I’m-a-victim-feel-sorry-for-me-but-everything-is-all-good-now-because-I-found-the-Lord-testimony. It is a real life, in-your-face depiction of an ongoing struggle to face the mirror and live!
