"This book brought me to tears... I was sitting on the edge of my seat wondering what path the story was going to go."~Goodreads review EXCERPT: Rui turned and there she was, coming across the meadow. Alone, that dark and primitive part of him noted with satisfaction. She strolled toward the dance floor, clothed in a simple green dress that flowed like water over her lush curves. The late afternoon sun touched her rich brown hair with golden highlights. She'd left it unbound so that it swayed to and fro over her breasts. He stared at her, mesmerized, chest tight. All around the dance floor, unmated males did the same. Spines straightened and stomachs sucked in. A dozen hungry gazes ran over her voluptuous body. Rui rumbled a warning. Those fada close enough to hear shot him a look, then dropped their eyes. Even the sun fae men glanced around uneasily...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electric Literature 25 Best Novels of 2014 Largehearted Boy Favorite Novels of 2014 "An extraordinary new literary talent."--The Daily Telegraph "In part a portrait of the artist as a young woman, this deceptively modest-seeming, astonishingly inventive novel creates an extraordinary intimacy, a sensibility so alive it quietly takes over all your senses, quivering through your nerve endings, opening your eyes and heart. Youth, from unruly student years to early motherhood and a loving marriage--and then, in the book's second half, wilder and something else altogether, the fearless, half-mad imagination of youth, I might as well call it—has rarely been so freshly, charmingly, and unforgettably portrayed. Valeria Luiselli is a masterful, entirely original writer."--Francisco Goldman In Mexico City, a young mother is writing a novel of her days as a translator living in New York. In Harlem, a translator is desperate to publish the works of Gilberto Owen, an obscure Mexican poet. And in Philadelphia, Gilberto Owen recalls his friendship with Lorca, and the young woman he saw in the windows of passing trains. Valeria Luiselli's debut signals the arrival of a major international writer and an unexpected and necessary voice in contemporary fiction. "Luiselli's haunting debut novel, about a young mother living in Mexico City who writes a novel looking back on her time spent working as a translator of obscure works at a small independent press in Harlem, erodes the concrete borders of everyday life with a beautiful, melancholy contemplation of disappearance. . . . Luiselli plays with the idea of time and identity with grace and intuition." —Publishers Weekly

Download or read book Urban Narratives and the Spaces of Rome written by Gregory Smith and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-07-19 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book foregrounds the works of Pier Paolo Pasolini to study the Roman periphery and examine the relevance of Pasolini’s vision in the construction of subaltern identity and experience. It analyses the contemporary Italian society to understand the problem of social exclusion of marginal communities. Narrative studies are at the core of the contemporary social science research. This book uses narrative analysis to unpack the deeper meaning of Rome’s stigmatized periphery through an interplay of Italian cinema, literature, and social and political climates. It encourages a positive interpretation of the Roman periphery through its characterization as a homogeneous area of marginality as emphasized in Pasolini’s writings and films on Rome. This re-evaluation left a lasting impact on the modern periphery and the narratives of ordinary citizens as evident in contemporary street art and popular musical production. Pasolini’s revolutionary vision allows us to appreciate the human and aesthetic character of urban life in regions beyond the main urban areas. The respect for subaltern urban communities encouraged by this book can be extended from Rome to other parts of the world. This book presents an interconnection of social theory, geography, poetry, literature, film and the visual arts to study the experience of life in underprivileged urban areas. Written in an accessible style, the book offers a reimagining of the Roman periphery which will appeal to readers in France, Spain, Italy, Australia, areas which have significant interest in Italian studies and the works of Pasolini.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Luiselli follows in the imaginative tradition of writers like Borges and Márquez, but her style and concerns are unmistakably her own. This deeply playful novel is about the passion and obsession of collecting, the nature of storytelling, the value of objects, and the complicated bonds of family. . . Luiselli has become a writer to watch, in part because it’s truly hard to know (but exciting to wonder about) where she will go next.”—The New York Times I was born in Pachuca, the Beautiful Windy City, with four premature teeth and my body completely covered in a very fine coat of fuzz. But I'm grateful for that inauspicious start because ugliness, as my other uncle, Eurípides López Sánchez, was given to saying, is character forming. Highway is a late-in-life world traveler, yarn spinner, collector, and legendary auctioneer. His most precious possessions are the teeth of the "notorious infamous" like Plato, Petrarch, and Virginia Woolf. Written in collaboration with the workers at a Jumex juice factory, Teeth is an elegant, witty, exhilarating romp through the industrial suburbs of Mexico City and Luiselli's own literary influences. Valeria Luiselli was born in Mexico City in 1983 and grew up in South Africa. Her work has been translated into many languages and has appeared in publications including the New York Times, Granta, and McSweeney's. Her novel, The Story of My Teeth, is the winner of the LA Times Book Prize in Fiction.

THE FADA Shapeshifters created during Dionysus's legendary bacchanals from a combination of fae, human, and animal genes. They’re dark, ruthless, untamed—but when they love, it's forever. *Best Shapeshifter Series, Paranormal Romance Guild Reviewer's Choice Awards* All of the Fada Shapeshifter stories are standalone with a happily ever after, but the people, clans and stories interconnect. EXCERPT: Cleia sighed and suddenly Dion understood what was wrong. She didn’t want harmless. She wanted danger. The lady was bored with men who danced to her tune. Ah. He’d be happy to provide the queen with a little…excitement. He crouched on his haunches in front of her and put out his hand. “Give me your foot.” She hesitated and he waited, unmoving. In this dance, she would learn that he was the leader, she the follower. She slanted him a look from under her lashes and then, setting her wine on the floor, placed a slender foot in his palm. It was clad in a jewel-encrusted sandal: rubies, emeralds, diamonds. The fae loved bright, glittering things. It was yet another weakness, something he could use against the shallow, party-girl queen. Right now she wasn’t thinking about jewels, though. Her gaze was all for him. Her hands clenched on her lap, but she held herself still, waiting to see what he’d do next. Keeping his eyes on hers, he undid the sandal strap and slid his finger under her arch, tracing a slow path down the sensitive skin. Her breath hitched. He removed the sandal and pressed a kiss to her instep, then placed her foot on the chair seat so that her knee was bent, opening her to him. “Keep it there.” Her throat worked but she obeyed. He removed the other sandal and kissed that instep as well. Her breath released in an audible whoosh. His lips curved against her soft skin. “You like that.” Their eyes met and he inhaled sharply. Deus, her irises were beautiful: a tawny, sun-touched brown. “Mm,” she murmured. “More.” Their gazes locked, but when he simply stared at her unmoving, she added, “Please.” Triumph streaked through him. He’d won. She just didn’t know it yet. “As you wish, querida..." *2016 EPIC Awards Finalist, Best Fantasy/Paranormal Romance* KEYWORDS: shifter, alpha male, fae queen, fated mates, mate bond, happily ever after, alpha male romance book, alpha male romance ebook, alpha shapeshifter romance, alpha shifter fated mates, rebecca rivard mates, fated mates paranormal romance, shifter fae romance book, shifter fae romance series, strangers to lovers, instant attraction, heat level, fated mates novel, soul mates, destined mates, shifter romance ebook, paranormal fiction series, strong heroine, fae romance novel, fae queen romance novel, shifter mates, fated mates, enemies to lovers romance, enemies to lovers paranormal romance book, sexy shifter book, sexy paranormal romance book, steamy paranormal romance novel, steamy shifter mates, shapeshifter clan romance series, urban fantasy, sexy urban fantasy, fantasy romance, sexy fantasy romance, unusual shapeshifters, band of brothers series, Latino hero paranormal romance, Latino hero romance, treacherous fae encounters, captivating world-building, romantic suspense, intense chemistry between characters, HEA (happily ever after), everlasting love and bonds, abduction/seduction, riveting paranormal romance series
