Download or read book Prose from many shores written by Bud Simmons and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-03-09 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prose from many shores knocks on the door of the reality of our daily lives in stanzas that give the reader a broader spectrum of the spiritual world in psalms and songs. The author authentically decrees that most of the contents within these pages came in the form of an otherworldly muse most definitely from the light. From broken hearts that never heal, to war that leaves scars unseen, to history long forgotten, to a World War II marine who encountered a talking dog that saved his life--all these are compiled within these pages, speaking to our world today. Far from being a self-help book, it speaks to the child within us all, to the adolescent we used to be, and the adult and seniors we will all become. Here, in this unique collection, you will be much devoted to the Divine and psalms that came about during early morning prayers or, as the title, Prose from many shores. In this lyrical expression of love, loss, war, and early morning visits by the muse (Prose from many shores), it is this writer's fervent hope and prayer that reading these words will inspire and encourage the readers to be aware that it is never too late to pursue your dreams in whatever category you have chosen. I love being a writer of Christian psalms and praise poetry that inspire and all-around history much from the greatest generation (World War II). As much as having written concerning Christian genres and motivational words of inspiration that have, in some ways, lifted the spirits of our cohort, every writer wants to make a difference with her/his contribution. Today I have become a firm believer in the presence of God and Jesus Christ working in my life. It's my experience that prayer and meditation daily can not only change our lives and lead us to a more fulfilling existence but also change our world for the better. It has been said and documented in millions of testimonies that belief in God is one of the most formidable tools of reliability one may have. Within these pages, the reader will find story poems and short stories that will hopefully inspire them to move in the direction of unfulfilled dreams and ambitions. Hopefully, that may include the arts, creativity, performing arts, and writing. God stands as the master creator of all that is or ever will be (you and me not excluded). What then is more devoted to his likeness and image than to recreate on our own level? It is my fervent hope that reading Prose from many shores may inspire you to build and expand your own relationship with God through prayer and praise. In the ever-holy name of Jesus Christ, I leave my blessing on this work and all who read it. God be with you, and perhaps we will be destined to meet in person along life's path. "For grace is given not because we have done good works, but in order that we may be able to do them" (Saint Augustine of Hippo).

Download or read book Strangers from a Different Shore written by Ronald T. Takaki and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 1019 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an extraordinary blend of narrative history, personal recollection, & oral testimony, the author presents a sweeping history of Asian Americans. He writes of the Chinese who laid tracks for the transcontinental railroad, of plantation laborers in the canefields of Hawaii, of "picture brides" marrying strangers in the hope of becoming part of the American dream. He tells stories of Japanese Americans behind the barbed wire of U.S. internment camps during World War II, Hmong refugees tragically unable to adjust to Wisconsin's alien climate & culture, & Asian American students stigmatized by the stereotype of the "model minority." This is a powerful & moving work that will resonate for all Americans, who together make up a nation of immigrants from other shores.

Download or read book Ancient Shores written by Jack McDevitt and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It turned up in a North Dakota wheat field: a triangle, like a shark's fin, sticking up from the black loam. Tom Lasker did what any farmer would have done. He dug it up. And discovered a boat, made of a fiberglass-like material with an utterly impossible atomic number. What it was doing buried under a dozen feet of prairie soil two thousand miles from any ocean, no one knew. True, Tom Lasker's wheat field had once been on the shoreline of a great inland sea, but that was a long time ago -- ten thousand years ago. A return to science fiction on a grand scale, reminiscent of the best of Heinlein, Simak, and Clarke, Ancient Shores is the most ambitious and exciting SF triumph of the decade, a bold speculative adventure that does not shrink from the big questions -- and the big answers.

Download or read book Miami Beach written by Horacio Silva and published by Assouline Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-01 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considered by many as the country’s most dynamic, fastest growing and sexiest city, Miami is more popular than ever before. Yet, it is a city that doesn’t merely change but evolves, never rewriting the past, just adding to its illustrious heritage. And this is the real beauty of Miami. The chic Surf Club and the vibrant Faena Hotel did not replace the emblematic Raleigh of the 1940s nor the Ritz Carlton of the 50s, rather they complement them. Classics like Joe’s Stone Crab continue to serve their signature fare to sell-out crowds each night, as new establishments attract with name chefs. The iconic art deco architecture remains on full display as the modern Herzog & de Meuron-designed Perez Art Museum stands in stark contrast. Replete with arts and culture year round from the international art at The Bass to the street art of Wynwood Walls, each December, the city is taken over by the global cultural elite for Art Basel Miami Beach, a fair that attracts over 80,000 visitors who turn out for the momentous art, such as Maurizio Cattelan’s show stopping “Comedian”, and the exuberant festivities hosted each evening.
Download or read book Rising written by Elizabeth Rush and published by Milkweed Editions. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Pulitzer Prize Finalist, this powerful elegy for our disappearing coast “captures nature with precise words that almost amount to poetry” (The New York Times). Hailed as “the book on climate change and sea levels that was missing” (Chicago Tribune), Rising is both a highly original work of lyric reportage and a haunting meditation on how to let go of the places we love. With every record-breaking hurricane, it grows clearer that climate change is neither imagined nor distant—and that rising seas are transforming the coastline of the United States in irrevocable ways. In Rising, Elizabeth Rush guides readers through these dramatic changes, from the Gulf Coast to Miami, and from New York City to the Bay Area. For many of the plants, animals, and humans in these places, the options are stark: retreat or perish. Rush sheds light on the unfolding crises through firsthand testimonials—a Staten Islander who lost her father during Sandy, the remaining holdouts of a Native American community on a drowning Isle de Jean Charles, a neighborhood in Pensacola settled by escaped slaves hundreds of years ago—woven together with profiles of wildlife biologists, activists, and other members of these vulnerable communities.

Book excerpt: A once peaceful planet of refugees faces complete annihilation in this hard science fiction sequel to Brightness Reef. Book Two in the Uplift Storm Trilogy It’s illegal to occupy the planet Jijo, but six castaway races have managed to coexist there for some time. They’ve successfully hidden from watchful law enforcers of the Five Galaxies—until now . . . After making an amazing discovery far away—a derelict armada whose mere existence triggered interstellar war—the Terran exploration vessel Streaker and its crew of humans and dolphins arrive at Jijo in search of sanctuary from the Galactic forces out to destroy them. But they were followed. As behemoth Galactic starships descend upon Jijo, heroic—and terrifying—choices must be made. Together, human and alien settlers must choose whether to fight the invaders or join them. The crew of the Streaker, meanwhile, discovers something that just might save Jijo and its inhabitants . . . or destroy every last one of them. “Well paced, immensely complex, highly literate . . . Superior SF.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review “An imaginative drama of excitement and wonder . . . The sheer virtuosity of the prose alone makes this book worth reading.” —SF Site
Download or read book Sounds of Other Shores written by Andrew J. Eisenberg and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2024-04-02 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sounds of Other Shores takes an ethnographic ear to the history of transoceanic stylistic appropriation in the Swahili taarab music of the Kenyan coast. Swahili taarab, a form of sung poetry that emerged as East Africa's first mass-mediated popular music in the 1930s, is a famously cosmopolitan form, rich in audible influences from across the Indian Ocean. But the variants of the genre that emerged in the Kenyan coastal city of Mombasa during the twentieth century feature particularly dramatic, even flamboyant, appropriations of Indian and Arab sonic gestures and styles. Combining oral history, interpretive ethnography, and musical analysis, Sounds of Other Shores explores how Swahili-speaking Muslims in twentieth-century Mombasa derived pleasure and meaning from acts of transoceanic musical appropriation, arguing that these acts served as ways of reflecting on and mediating the complexities and contradictions associated with being "Swahili" in colonial and postcolonial Kenya. The result is a musical anthropology of Kenyan Swahili subjectivity that reframes longstanding questions about Swahili identity while contributing to broader discussions about identity and citizenship in Africa and the Indian Ocean world.
