Download or read book Submission written by Michel Houellebecq and published by Random House. This book was released on 2016-09-08 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the 2022 French Presidential election looms, two candidates emerge as favourites: Marine Le Pen of the Front National, and the charismatic Muhammed Ben Abbes of the growing Muslim Fraternity. Forming a controversial alliance with the political left to block the Front National’s alarming ascendency, Ben Abbes sweeps to power, and overnight the country is transformed. This proves to be the death knell of French secularism, as Islamic law comes into force: women are veiled, polygamy is encouraged and, for our narrator François – misanthropic, middle-aged and alienated – life is set on a new course. Submission is a devastating satire, comic and melancholy by turns, and a profound meditation on faith and meaning in Western society.
Download or read book The Submission written by Amy Waldman and published by Random House. This book was released on 2011-08-18 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A jury gathers in Manhattan to select a memorial for the victims of a devastating terrorist attack. Their fraught deliberations complete, the jurors open the envelope containing the anonymous winner's name – and discover he is an American Muslim. Instantly they are cast into roiling debate about the claims of grief, the ambiguities of art, and the meaning of Islam. The memorial's designer is Mohammad Khan, an enigmatic, ambitious architect. His fiercest defender on the jury is its sole widow, the mediagenic Claire Burwell. But when the news of his selection leaks to the press, Claire finds herself under pressure from outraged family members and in collision with hungry journalists, wary activists, opportunistic politicians, fellow jurors, and Khan himself. All will bring the emotional weight of their own histories to bear on the urgent question of how to remember, and understand, a national tragedy.

Download or read book Submission to Glory written by Trish Pennala and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2018-12-27 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For some, the word might seem perplexing; for others, it might create sudden displeasure inside because it is seen as weak and incapable. However, in the new book by author Trish Pennala, submission is to be viewed as not powerless but powerful under the command of God, the creator of heaven and earth. Submission to Glory: Living a Life That Glorifies God is Trish’s rally call to men and women alike to not look down on submission in their lives but to see it as an opportunity to glorify God and be blessed in the process. Trish journeys first into discussing her childhood growing up as one of nine children, raised by a loving mother and father who taught them first about Jesus Christ and his submission to God on the cross. This knowledge, along with loving guidance and discipline, reinforced in Trish’s mind that submitting to God helped in controlling oneself against the fleshy desires of the world to align with God’s will and plan. As the book continues, Trish further explores the concept of submission and humans’ grapple with it, starting with Eve’s deception from the serpent that emerged from a lack of submission to God and his wishes. Her choice to eat the forbidden fruit and to convince Adam to do the same led them down a spiral of insubordination that was only rectified through Jesus’s death and resurrection. Trish also expands on submission in marriage (of a wife submitting to her God-serving husband), the benefits of submission, and the opportunities to recognize and praise God when allowing him full reign in one’s life. Submission may get criticized when it comes to the me-centered desires of this world, but in God’s eyes, it is the closest form to real love that a person could ever show his/her creator!
Download or read book So You Had To Build A Time Machine written by Jason Offutt and published by CamCat Publishing, LLC. This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Skid doesn’t believe in ghosts or time travel or any of that nonsense. A circus runaway-turned-bouncer, she believes in hard work, self-defense, and good strong coffee. Then one day an annoying theoretical physicist named Dave pops into the seat next to her at her least favorite Kansas City bar and disappears into thin air when she punches him (he totally deserved it). Now, street names are changing, Skid’s favorite muffins are swapping frosting flavors, Dave keeps reappearing in odd places like the old Sanderson murder house—and that’s only the start of her problems. Something has gone wrong. Terribly wrong. Absolutely &#*$&ed up. Someone has the nastiest versions of every conceivable reality at their fingertips, and they're not afraid to smash them together. With the help of a smooth-talking haunted house owner and a linebacker-sized Dungeons and Dragons-loving baker, Skid and Dave set out to save the world from whatever scientific experiment has sent them all dimension-hopping against their will. It probably means the world is screwed.
