Book excerpt: In 1869, following the death of Dellanna and Ethan, Kyzer grieved over the loss of his wife and little black baby. Would things have been any better for him if he had known the truth? Perhaps, he thought. He had fulfilled his promise to Dellanna. He shared the truth with their daughter about her possible genetic condition. One drop, just one drop of his blood, also labeled her as a Negro. It was hard for Kyzer to realize his mother Delilah was once a slave girl who gave him away at birth. He thought he understood the reasons when she tried to explain herself. She was scared. She was so young. She was alone without her dearly departed mother, Mama Rose. Kyzer and Delilah were together again after nearly thirty years, and now he knew all about himself.

Kyzers beautiful wife, Dellanna, has been dead for six months. Despite his personal grief, he finds the strength to be a loving father and continue to support his mother and a person of color who is now a member of the family. Soon, an old friend from Kyzers Civil War days arrives in Hastings and changes the direction of the entire familys life. Kyzer must make a choice: will he continue his haunted struggles in Virginia or move his family yet again? But how will his children handle the relocation, and will Kyzer be able to find a stable way to support them? Amidst obstacles and challenges, Kyzer will keep his weakened family together. Unexpected conflicts threaten to tear them apart, but Kyzers strength goes to show that nothing is as powerful as the love of a father for his children. In a world still reeling from war, it is love, not hate, which conquers all.

Download or read book Weaveworld written by Clive Barker and published by Crossroad Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 799 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is storytelling on a grand scale — the stuff of which a classic is made. Weaveworld begins with a rug — a wondrous, magnificent rug — into which a world has been woven. It is the world of the Seerkind, a people more ancient than man, who possesses raptures — the power to make magic. In the last century they were hunted down by an unspeakable horror known as the Scourge, and, threatened with annihilation, they worked their strongest raptures to weave themselves and their culture into a rug for safekeeping. Since then, the rug has been guarded by human caretakers. The last of the caretakers has just died. Vying for possession of the rug is a spectrum of unforgettable characters: Suzanna, granddaughter of the last caretaker, who feels the pull of the Weaveworld long before she knows the extent of her own powers; Calhoun Mooney, a pigeon-raising clerk who finds the world he's always dreamed of in a fleeting glimpse of the rug; Immacolata, an exiled Seerkind witch intent on destroying her race even if it means calling back the Scourge; and her sidekick, Shadwell, the Salesman, who will sell the Weaveworld to the highest bidder. In the course of the novel the rug is unwoven, and we travel deep into the glorious raptures of the Weaveworld before we witness the final, cataclysmic struggle for its possession. Barker takes us to places where we have seldom been in fiction--places terrifying and miraculous, humorous, and profound. With keen psychological insight and prodigious invention, his trademark graphic vision balanced by a spirit of transcendent promise, Barker explores the darkness and the light, the magical and the monstrous, and celebrates the triumph of the imagination.

Book excerpt: 'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
