Book excerpt: In this inspirational and unflinchingly honest memoir, acclaimed author Reyna Grande describes her childhood torn between the United States and Mexico, and shines a light on the experiences, fears, and hopes of those who choose to make the harrowing journey across the border. Reyna Grande vividly brings to life her tumultuous early years in this “compelling...unvarnished, resonant” (BookPage) story of a childhood spent torn between two parents and two countries. As her parents make the dangerous trek across the Mexican border to “El Otro Lado” (The Other Side) in pursuit of the American dream, Reyna and her siblings are forced into the already overburdened household of their stern grandmother. When their mother at last returns, Reyna prepares for her own journey to “El Otro Lado” to live with the man who has haunted her imagination for years, her long-absent father. Funny, heartbreaking, and lyrical, The Distance Between Us poignantly captures the confusion and contradictions of childhood, reminding us that the joys and sorrows we experience are imprinted on the heart forever, calling out to us of those places we first called home. Also available in Spanish as La distancia entre nosotros.

Download or read book Mago s Dream written by Ilchi Lee and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2013-10-29 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People have forgotten how to breathe out. Caught in a materialistic matrix, humanity has become trapped in an unsustainable pattern of living, breathing in until we are ready to implode. The Earth is laboring under the burden. The time to exhale has arrived. You are an extraordinary person because you are living during an extraordinary time in history. Humanity has reached a critical juncture in its collective development, and many critical issues now demanding our immediate attention: global warming, population growth, culture clash, and more. In Mago's Dream, you will learn to connect to the essence of Mago, the nurturing spirit of the Earth. In the process, you will feel that her essence is your essence, and that through her you can connect to your own highest self. In the book, Ilchi Lee contends that the earth itself should become a central tenant of our human identity. By recognizing ourselves as 'Earth-humans' we can learn to transcend the cultural and national identities that keep us from living as a single, united humanity. And, by placing the Earth herself at the center of our common value system, we can learn to live in balance with the source of life itself.

Download or read book Can s Tago Mago written by Alan Warner and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-11-20 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finally, a brilliant exploration of the German rock band Can's 1971 album Tago Mago. This hugely unique and influential album deserves close analysis from a fan, rather than a musicologist. Novelist Alan Warner details the concrete music we hear on the album, how it was composed, executed and recorded--including the history of the album in terms of its release, promotion and art work. This tale of Tago Mago is also the tale of a young man obsessed with record collecting in the dark and mysterious period of pop music before Google. Warner includes a backtracking of the history of the band up to that point and also some description of Can's unique recording approach taking into account their home studio set up. Interviews with the two surviving members: drummer Jaki Liebezeit, keyboardist Irmin Schmidt and bassist Holger Czukay make this a hilariously personal and illuminating picture of Can.

Download or read book Opus Mago Cabbalisticum Et Theosophicum written by Georg Von Welling and published by Weiser Books. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 713 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This is the sort of theological resource upon which The Da Vinci Code and books like it are based. This book says things are hidden and meant to be found.” —Joseph McVeigh, translator After nearly three hundred years, one of the most important alchemical and magical texts of all time has finally been translated into English! In Goethe’s immortal play, Faust, the brooding hero reflects upon the vainness of earthly knowledge and education. He opens a book of magic and is transfixed by an illustration of the magical universe. He resolves there and then to become a magician. The book that fired Goethe’s imagination for that dramatic scene was a real book—the book of forbidden knowledge that evoked every mystical cliché, Opus Mago-Cabbalisticum et Theosophicum. This first ever English edition of Opus Mago-Cabbalisticum et Theosophicum will appeal to anyone interested in the history or practical aspects of alchemy, astrology, magick, Rosicrucianism, esoteric Freemasonry, and the Golden Dawn. A perfect addition to any library of classic esoteric literature, this edition reproduces famous illustrations.

Download or read book The Adventures of Captain Mago written by Léon Cahun and published by CHARLES SCRIBNER'S SONS. This book was released on 2015-02-23 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The following pages pretend to no original or scientific research. It is their object to present, in a popular form, a picture of the world as it was a thousand years before the Christian Era, and to exhibit, mainly for the young, a summary of that varied information which is contained in books, many of which by their high price and exclusively technical character are generally unattainable. It would only have encumbered the fictitious narrative, which is the vehicle for conveying the instruction that is designed, to crowd every page with references; but it may be alleged, once for all, that for every statement which relates to the history of the period, and especially to the history of the Phœnicians, ample authority might be quoted from some one or other of the valuable books which have been consulted. Of the most important of these a list is here appended:— 1. F. C. Movers. Das Phönizische Alterthum. 2. Renan. Mission en Phénicie. 3. Daux. Recherches sur les Emporia phéniciens dans le Zeugis et le Byzacium. 4. Nathan Davis. Carthage and her Remains. 5. Wilkinson. Manners and Customs of Ancient Egyptians. 6. Hœckh. Kreta. 7. Grote. History of Greece. 8. Mommsen. Geschichte der Römischen Republik (Introduction and Chap. I.). 9. Bourguignat. Monuments mégalithiques du nord de l'Afrique. 10. Fergusson. Rude Stone Monuments. 11. Broca and A. Bertrand. Celtes, Gaulois et Francs. 12. Abbé Bargès. Interprétation d'une inscription phénicienne trouvée à Marseille. 13. Layard. Nineveh and its Remains. 14. Botta. Fouilles de Babylone. 15. Reuss. New translation of the Bible, in course of publication. A few foot-notes are subjoined by way of illustration of what might have been carried on throughout the volume; and an Appendix will be found at the end, containing some explanation of topics which the continuity of the fiction necessarily left somewhat obscure.
