Download or read book Off the Rocks Volume 17 written by NewTown Writers and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-12-20 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NewTown Writers presents Volume 17 of our annual anthology series dedicated to the creative endeavors of the GLBT community. This year's edition explores the subject of subtext: reading between, behind, beneath, and beyond the lines. Subtext is standard in GLBT culture, visible even when we are not. Subtext is perniciously perceptive and delightfully deceptive. It is always - inherently, if not transparently - subversive. Because generally speaking, what isn't spoken speaks louder, clearer, and queerer than what is.

Download or read book The Good Daughter written by Jasmin Darznik and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01-27 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We were a world of two, my mother and I, until I started turning into an American girl. That's when she began telling me about The Good Daughter. It became a taunt, a warning, an omen. Jasmin Darznik came to America from Iran when she was only three years old, and she grew up knowing very little about her family's history. When she was in her early twenties, on a day shortly following her father's death, Jasmin was helping her mother move; a photograph fell from a stack of old letters. The girl pictured was her mother. She was wearing a wedding veil, and at her side stood a man whom Jasmin had never seen before. At first, Jasmin's mother, Lili, refused to speak about the photograph, and Jasmin returned to her own home frustrated and confused. But a few months later, she received from her mother the first of ten cassette tapes that would bring to light the wrenching hidden story of her family's true origins in Iran: Lili's marriage at thirteen, her troubled history of abuse and neglect, and a daughter she was forced to abandon in order to escape that life. The final tape revealed that Jasmin's sister, Sara - The Good Daughter - was still living in Iran. In this sweeping, poignant, and beautifully written memoir, Jasmin weaves the stories of three generations of Iranian women into a unique tale of one family's struggle for freedom and understanding. The result is an enchanting and unforgettable story of secrets, betrayal, and the unbreakable mother-daughter bond.
Download or read book The Three Red Lines written by Dario Dalla Lasta and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2009-08-13 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Three Red Lines' takes four New Yorkers on a psychedelic trip through tattoo parlors, shared dreamscapes, haunted visions, forbidden feelings, and exotic Mardi Gras-inspired fantasies. There's sex, there's drugs, there's Bauhaus. This completely raw, contemporary take on New Yorkers goes far beyond a mere titillating look at today's gritty sexual lifestyles in the gay community. In addition, 'The Three Red Lines' flirts with the mystical realm of the subconscious and climaxes (literally and figuratively) in a shared dream that ends up coming to vivid life in a Brooklyn brownstone one fateful night. The journey that all four characters take is life-altering, avowedly sexual, hair-raising, sometimes funny, occasionally creepy and, best of all, uplifting.
