Download or read book Crossing the Congo written by Mike Martin and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2013, three friends set off on a journey that they had been told was impossible: the north-south crossing of the Congo River Basin, from Kinshasa, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, to Juba, in South Sudan. Traversing 2,500 miles of the toughest terrain on the planet in a twenty-five year-old Land Rover, they faced repeated challenges, from kleptocracy and fire ants to non-existent roads and intense suspicion from local people. Through imagination and teamwork -- including building rafts and bridges, conducting makeshift surgery in the jungle and playing tribal politics -- they got through. But the Congo is raw, and the journey took an unexpected psychological toll on them all. Crossing the Congo is an offbeat travelogue, a story of friendship and what it takes to complete a great journey against tremendous odds, and an intimate look into one of the world's least-developed and most fragile states, told with humor and sensitivity.

From the waning days of the broadcast networks to the influx of basic cable TV movies, this encyclopedia covers 1,370 films produced during the period 2000-2020. For each film entry, the reader is presented with an informative storyline, cast and character lists, technical credits (producer, director, writer), air dates, and networks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now what? thought Teresa. Finding herself unexpectedly divorced with two children at college. She would have to get a job; although it was over twenty years since she had worked out of the home. She had graduated from college as a secretary. Did people still need secretaries? she wondered. Following several false starts, she managed to secure employment with a small printing company near her home in Des Moines, Iowa. A month or so later, she, together with the blessing of the aging owner, Sam Nolan, was running his company. During this time, she met Sam's daughter who soon became her best friend or BFF, as she was fond of saying. They shared a passion and sailed together, both in Iowa and Washington state. Then Teressa met and married David and her whole life changed yet again. Like her, he was divorced, yet somehow, she shared a connection with him she had never experienced before, not with her husband nor her children. David seemed to release in her emotions long suppressed. She was becoming the woman she always wanted to be. David said it was God's work, but she didn't believe in "his God"--no, that was nonsense and would never do. 1 1

Download or read book The Strange Beautiful written by Carla Crujido and published by Chin Music Press. This book was released on 2024-06-11 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From debut fiction writer Carla Crujido comes a delicately intertwined, fairytale-inspired collection of short stories. Part vivid historical drama, part melancholy fever dream, The Strange Beautiful centers on Mount Vernon Apartments in Spokane, Washington, offering a glimpse into the lives of ten tenants over a period of one hundred years. In the opening story, "The Songbird," we meet the building's caretaker, a WWI veteran trying to rebuild his life amidst the Spanish flu pandemic. In "The Telephone," a 21st-century poet's longing for a bygone era nurtures a friendship that transcends time. A 1930s department store mannequin navigates the challenges of womanhood in the surreal, darkly humorous tale, "The Mannequin." And in "The Suitcase," an exhausted woman scrambles to tidy up her boyfriend's unprocessed emotions, which have materialized inside boxes all over the apartment. As we witness the quiet but fraught moments of the tenants' everyday lives, these uncanny narratives create a world that is at once familiar and fantastic. A striking portrait of a city not often depicted in literature, The Strange Beautiful leads us through the streets of Spokane and the similarly evolving internal landscapes of these ten characters. Crujido's masterful storytelling shows us how a single place can hold a myriad of histories, how our lives are interconnected with strangers, and how our collective tales are forever repeating.

Download or read book Julian Onderdonk in New York written by James Graham Baker and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2014-04-25 with total page 639 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Famed for his bluebonnet landscapes, San Antonio native Julian Onderdonk may be the most well-known artist Texas has ever produced. Onderdonk spent several years outside the state, though, seeking to make a name for himself in New York City. He spent much of his time in New York as the very definition of a starving artist. In Julian Onderdonk: The Lost Years, the Lost Paintings, James Graham Baker explores the artist’s New York years, so often neglected by previous scholars. Through painstaking research, Baker reveals that Onderdonk painted hundreds of images under pseudonyms during his time in New York. These images not only reveal the means by which the artist struggled to make ends meet, but add another dimension to our understanding of the artist’s oeuvre. It is not possible to appreciate and understand Julian Onderdonk and his art without including these works. Largely composed of landscapes and marine scenes depicting the vanishing rural areas and shorelines around New York City, they show that Onderdonk was more than simply a “bluebonnet painter.”
