Miraculous is in despair.Until the year 2008, when he meets the young down-on-his-luck David - the silver man.Together they turn their fortunes around - two very different men from different times, buy who share a special bond that will last forever,CUSTOMER REVIEW OF "e;MIRACULOUS AND THE SILVER MAN"e;: For anyone who has either visited the City of Bath or read about its legendary Roman history, with its famous Roman Baths, this is a fascinating and highly entertaining fantasy tale, which draws upon both ancient Roman times and present-day Bath for its settings. Patricia Greenburgh is an excellent story-teller with a vivid imagination. Her characters are very well-drawn and utterly believable, as we follow the trials and tribulations of David, the Silver Man and Miraculous, the ancient Roman warrior, around modern-day Bath and ancient Rome. I would recommend this engaging tale to readers of all ages. - PETER STEPHENS - January, 2011

Book The Long Ships

  • Author : Frans G. Bengtsson
  • Publisher : New York Review of Books
  • Release : 2010-07-06
  • ISBN : 1590173465
  • Pages : 530 pages

Download or read book The Long Ships written by Frans G. Bengtsson and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2010-07-06 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beloved Viking saga and masterpiece of historical fiction, The Long Ships is a high spirited adventure that stretches from Scandinavia to Spain, England, Ireland, and beyond. Frans Gunnar Bengtsson’s The Long Ships resurrects the fantastic world of the tenth century AD when the Vikings roamed and rampaged from the northern fastnesses of Scandinavia down to the Mediterranean. Bengtsson’s hero, Red Orm—canny, courageous, and above all lucky—is only a boy when he is abducted from his Danish home by the Vikings and made to take his place at the oars of their dragon-prowed ships. Orm is then captured by the Moors in Spain, where he is initiated into the pleasures of the senses and fights for the Caliph of Cordova. Escaping from captivity, Orm washes up in Ireland, where he marvels at those epicene creatures, the Christian monks, and from which he then moves on to play an ever more important part in the intrigues of the various Scandinavian kings and clans and dependencies. Eventually, Orm contributes to the Viking defeat of the army of the king of England and returns home an off-the-cuff Christian and a very rich man, though back on his native turf new trials and tribulations will test his cunning and determination. Packed with pitched battles and blood feuds and told throughout with wit and high spirits, Bengtsson’s book is a splendid adventure that features one of the most unexpectedly winning heroes in modern fiction.

Book Two Lenses on the Korean Ethos

Download or read book Two Lenses on the Korean Ethos written by Keumsil Kim Yoon and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A war-torn country only 60 years ago, South Korea has since achieved prodigious growth and global integration, experiencing rapid industrialization and seeing its cultural exports gain international popularity. Because of this rapid transformation, an investigation of the Korean ethos--the shared self-concept woven through the divergent social contexts of both South and North Korea--is challenging. This book provides an introduction to the Korean ethos, detailing its representation in key cultural words and in film. Part I explores definitive concepts (terms) generally regarded as difficult to translate, such as han (regret), jeong (feeling) and deok (virtue), and how they are expressed in Korean cinema. Part II analyzes film narratives based on these concepts via close readings of 13 films, including three from North Korea.

Book The Fetishists

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ibrahim al-Koni
  • Publisher : University of Texas Press
  • Release : 2019-01-04
  • ISBN : 1477317910
  • Pages : 565 pages

Download or read book The Fetishists written by Ibrahim al-Koni and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2019-01-04 with total page 565 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fetishists, originally published in Arabic as Al Majus, is considered the masterpiece of Ibrahim al-Koni, one of the most prolific and important writers in Arabic today. In The Fetishists, Al-Koni explores what happens when a writer asks the novel to speak of and for the Sahara, when rival cultures clash, and when communities seek to build a utopia on Earth as individuals struggle between a desire for material well-being (represented by gold dust) and a need for spiritual meaning. As the story opens, Sultan Oragh of Timbuktu, who has already lost most of his power to Fetishist Bambara leaders of the forestlands, fears he will lose his only daughter, Tenere, as a human sacrifice to their god Amnay. The sultan sends Tenere to seek refuge with fellow Tuareg nomads in the plain. But even in their traditional, nomadic community, a competition rages between jihadi militant Islam; moderate Anhi Islam, which is the ancient Tuareg Law; and the cults of gold dust and of traditional African folk religions. In this epic novel, Al-Koni blends Tuareg folklore and history with intense, fond descriptions of daily life in the desert, creating a mirror for life anywhere. Through its tragic rendering of a clash between the Tuareg and traditional African civilizations, the novel profoundly probes the contradictions of the human soul as it takes the reader on a unique spiritual adventure inside the Tuareg world.
