Download or read book In the Cemetery of the Orange Trees written by Jeff Talarigo and published by Etruscan Press. This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As much a book of poetry as a novel, as much a symphony as a memoir, this is an extraordinary book from a writer at the top of his powers. Reminiscent of Berger and Calvino, Jeff Talarigo manages to capture the breadth and circumference of story-telling, while also giving us a privileged insight into the daily life and dreams of Gaza." —Colum McCann, Thirteen Ways of Looking In the mode of J. M. Coetzee’s Waiting for the Barbarians and Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities, In the Cemetery of the Orange Trees engages poetic language, mythic themes, and childlike perspectives to offer an original approach to a conflict that has become hardened and polarized. These linked stories of an American’s experience in Gaza expose the seven-decade long Palestinian diaspora in a disquieting allegory of the clash between the occupied and the occupier. In a place where political posturing, bloody war, journalistic witness, and even patient negotiation have yielded so little understanding, we enter the cemetery of the orange trees, where urchins kite dead birds, goats utter wisdom, camels and donkeys huddle together, and merchandise magically passes underground through the tunnels of Gaza. But this is no fairy tale or bestiary. In the Cemetery of the Orange Trees is a waking, attentive dream-journal, leading us back to a place where hatred, strife, and even human language itself might sing. Jeff Talarigo is the author of two novels: The Pearl Diver and The Ginseng Hunter. He has lived in Gaza and Japan, and currently resides in Oakland, California.

The picture pages can also be coloured in at school or at home to help consolidate what has been taught.

Download or read book Getting the Donkey Out of the Ditch written by Caroline Arden and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1988-10-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pioneering case study of a major political party under extreme strain, Getting the Donkey Out of the Ditch traces in detail what the Democratic Party actually did in the two years immediately following its resounding defeat in the 1980 elections. Caroline Arden argues that in November 1980 the Democratic Party was under the most severe stress it had experienced in this century, brought on not only by the loss of an election but also by the perceived threat of a major party realignment and to the Democrat's long-term status as a majority party. She shows that even though it still had sufficient power, the Democratic Party did not perform a fundamental or effective restoration to a unifying center after the disastrous election, which led in part to the disarray that has characterized the Party during the 1988 primaries.

Download or read book Shhh the Donkey s Trying to Speak written by James Ogden and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-02-09 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was a man in the Bible who was so obsessed with what he thought God wanted him to do that God had to use a donkey to speak to him and warn him so that an angel would not have killed him. The strange thing was, though, when the donkey was speaking to him, instead of him being amazed at the fact the donkey was speaking, he started arguing with, even threatening to kill the donkey. In this book, James brings out the many different ways God has used in his life and ministry to speak to us and get us in the right direction. It's not hard to hear God's voice. We just need to learn to listen. Be careful, that donkey you keep hearing just may be the Lord's way of getting your attention.

Download or read book Donkeys and Humans written by Anahid Klotz and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2015-09-08 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DONKEYS AND HUMANS describes natural communication between humans and donkeys and provides numerous possibilities of including donkeys in leisure activities, education and therapy. Part One of the book discusses how to plan and structure the training for donkeys as well as donkey handlers, and presents detailed theoretical knowledge and practical examples. This training programme is supported by a great variety of pictures and also includes all basic exercises of Natural Horsemanship. Natural Horsemanship adapted to donkeys demands respectful and harmonious communication with the sensitive and intelligent donkeys and is fundamental to Part Two of the book which explores the manifold possibilities of including educated donkeys in experiential leisure activities, animal assisted education and animal assisted therapy. Appropriate example structures and a catalogue of exercises help to develop more than just „education through cuddling“. The chapters are designed clearly and understandably and include extensive illustration. The book is aimed at donkey handlers, donkey friends, horse handlers, entrepreneurs interested in animal assisted leisure activities, teachers, psychologists and specialised therapists. Target groups for animal assisted therapy include children and young people attending kindergartens, elementary schools, regular schools or schools for special needs, i.e. those for multiply disabled, learning disabled or young people in difficult phases. Innumerable possibilities for clients with psychosomatic or psychological disorders are also mentioned. Another important target group is the growing number of elderly people who often suffer from dementia or other disorders associated with older age. A further chapter discusses involving donkeys successfully in personality training programmes.
