After thirteen years of assignments that took him to every Indian nation but his own, the veteran investigator has finally arrived in Oklahoma to heal. At once a son of the Nuhmuhnuh (“the People,” as the Comanche call themselves) and a government investigator, he has ties to both sides—and is about to discover which side pulls harder. On the reservation, Emmett finds a web of familial and tribal duties—and what could become a class action suit, with Indian plaintiffs suing the BIA for oil funds. Drawn into the controversy, Emmett is then accused of murder by an investigator of his own blood. And now, a man who used to be the law is running from it… *Midwest Book Review

Download or read book Dance of Duality written by Ishaan Nag and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2024-03-18 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, I chronicle the adventures of three perpetually confounded time travelers, celebrate a static, lull of bare existence free of discomfort but also ecstasy. The collection point fingers and blame, while also criticize that blame. This collection talks about high concepts and low concepts, outrage and mediocrity. But most of all, it tries to be creative. It is chaotic, it is warm, it is disturbing, it is inconsistent, it is rough around the edges yet its embrace is godly to whoever among you, the reader, it relates to. I wish you a pleasant, nervous, frustrating, fulfilling and subjective journey to explore our conscience, our secret love and fear, our metaphorical and physical surrounding. As a little addition, I have also included some of my primitive short stories for your entertainment and to remind me, it will get better as I learn to hone the art. We explore our metamorphosis and stationary state of being, we explore both our murmured musings and our fearlessly shouted statements. Let us celebrate the contradictions in us, the harmless double standards in us, the Dance of our Duality.

Readers will be enthralled and enraptured with this irresistible tale." —Romantic Times "Dancing on the Wind is another A+ read from one of the very best: I count on Mary Jo Putney for a compelling story with characters who live and breathed, and most of all, love. Lucien senses in Kit the change to regain a part of himself he had thought forever lost. Kit has always felt second-best, and finds it difficult to believe that she can trust in Lucien's love. Their love story is intense, emotional, and deeply satisfying." —Under The Covers "One of my favorite romances of all time." —All About Romance

Download or read book Dancing Women written by Sally Banes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dancing Women: Female Bodies Onstage is a spectacular and timely contribution to dance history, recasting canonical dance since the early nineteenth century in terms of a feminist perspective. Setting the creation of specific dances in socio-political and cultural contexts, Sally Banes shows that choreographers have created representations of women that are shaped by - and that in part shape - society's continuing debates about sexuality and female identity. Broad in its scope and compelling in its argument Dancing Women: * provides a series of re-readings of the canon, from Romantic and Russian Imperial ballet to contemporary ballet and modern dance * investigates the gaps between plot and performance that create sexual and gendered meanings * examines how women's agency is created in dance through aspects of choreographic structure and style * analyzes a range of women's images - including brides, mistresses, mothers, sisters, witches, wraiths, enchanted princesses, peasants, revolutionaries, cowgirls, scientists, and athletes - as well as the creation of various women's communities on the dance stage * suggests approaches to issues of gender in postmodern dance Using an interpretive strategy different from that of other feminist dance historians, who have stressed either victimization or celebration of women, Banes finds a much more complex range of cultural representations of gender identities.

This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book can be downloaded as a PDF file from here. This file contains the full book ‘THE NATIVE RACES OF SOUTH AFRICA’. Along with that there is a commentary also. The commentary may have its own significance. The commentary does stand on this platform of being a commentary to the book. However, the commentary does not actually confine itself within this boundary. Instead, there is a wider attempt to understand non-English social systems. Attempts can be seen made to mention things that are there in these social systems, about which the native-English world has no information on. In this connection, the native-English mindset as well as social ambience is being compared with the corresponding items in Continental Europe, Asia, South-Asia, Africa, and Arabia as well as in South America &c. The pathway to this has been routed through the internal codes inside the native-languages of these areas. After that, a very quaint mention is being made about how the various social systems all around the world can be brought to a level very serene refinement. This is actually a location of intelligent and purposeful social engineering.
