Download or read book Banished written by Lauren Drain and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Banished is an eye-opening, deeply personal account of life inside the cult known as the Westboro Baptist Church, as well as a fascinating story of adaptation and perseverance. You've likely heard of the Westboro Baptist Church. Perhaps you've seen their pickets on the news, the members holding signs with messages that are too offensive to copy here, protesting at events such as the funerals of soldiers, the 9-year old victim of the recent Tucson shooting, and Elizabeth Edwards, all in front of their grieving families. The WBC is fervently anti-gay, anti-Semitic, and anti- practically everything and everyone. And they aren't going anywhere: in March, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of the WBC's right to picket funerals. Since no organized religion will claim affiliation with the WBC, it's perhaps more accurate to think of them as a cult. Lauren Drain was thrust into that cult at the age of 15, and then spat back out again seven years later. Lauren spent her early years enjoying a normal life with her family in Florida. But when her formerly liberal and secular father set out to produce a documentary about the WBC, his detached interest gradually evolved into fascination, and he moved the entire family to Kansas to join the church and live on their compound. Over the next seven years, Lauren fully assimilated their extreme beliefs, and became a member of the church and an active and vocal picketer. But as she matured and began to challenge some of the church's tenets, she was unceremoniously cast out from the church and permanently cut off from her family and from everyone else she knew and loved. Banished is the story of Lauren's fight to find herself amidst dramatic changes in a world of extremists and a life in exile.

Book excerpt: A princess, a pickup truck, and a prophecy of doom. Usually, the daughter of an Arch Fae king wouldn't be working on a construction site in the mortal realm. But my father wants to kill me and steal my magic, so here I am-hiding among banished vampires and working as an electrician. As if the threat of my father isn't enough to worry about, his greatest nemesis, the Lord of Fate, is prophesied to hunt me. Awesome, right? Fate hasn't made an appearance yet, but I'm constantly looking over my shoulder. Despite my anxiety and utter lack of a love-life, living in Southern Oregon isn't so bad. Battery-operated boyfriends, cheap wine, and my friend Vana get me through the hard days...until two of my father's deadly centurions show up-beautiful, powerful, and ruthless as hell. No amount of wine or AA batteries will make this problem go away. Though I'm drawn to the centurions, I can't let these jerkwads identify me. Unless I want to blow town and leave behind all I love, I need to kill my pretty enemies. But first, I need to lure them close.

Download or read book Performance in a Time of Terror written by Kanchuka Dharmasiri and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-03-29 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a collection of five Sinhala plays, translated into English, which were written and performed during the most violent phase of modern Sri Lankan history. Ranjini Obeyesekere’s translation of these five well-known and celebrated plays by K. B. Herath, Prasannajith Abeysuriya, Dhananjaya Karunarathne, Prasanna Jayakody and Rajitha Dissanayake highlights and explores the dynamic period of Sri Lankan theater and performance arts in the 1980s and 1990s. The plays in this collection offered a political space for criticism, introspection, discussion and protest during a time of suppression of voices, political violence and terror. Audiences flocked to the theater to watch plays produced by talented dramatists and artists who were experimenting with forms and themes under extremely challenging circumstances, shoe-string budgets and strict censorship. Kanchuka Dharmasiri’s introduction to the volume further details the history and socio-political contexts of the theater of this period, discussing themes such as dissent, identity and the brutal power of the state. She also looks at the unique formal elements employed in these plays as well as their influence and reach. This volume is a significant addition to the growing corpus of Sinhala literature in translation. It will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of literature, performance studies, cultural studies, and the politics and history of Sri Lanka.
