Download or read book A Common Person and Other Stories written by R. M. Kinder and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2021-02-01 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These prizewinning stories champion the everyday person who tries to do his or her best in demanding and even demeaning situations. The stories in A Common Person and Other Stories, R. M. Kinder’s third short-story collection and the winner of the Richard Sullivan Prize in Short Fiction, expose the disruption in our modern life and the ever-present threat of violence, and, most importantly, they capture the real heroism of everyday people. The characters in these stories, most set deep in the middle of America, seem to invite trouble through their concern for others: a neighbor’s mistreated dog, a boy standing up to a bully, a woman who faces cancer and the loss of love. Kinder’s characters struggle with conflicts common to us all—to treat humans and animals with compassion, to open minds and hearts to diversity, all while balancing the welfare of the individual and the larger community. The characters aren’t always loveable, but they have their moments of grace—they accept responsibility and take stands. These stories, by turns humorous, unsettling, and utterly believable, expose the dangers of ordinary life as their characters perform acts of defiance, determination, and connection. The memorable characters in A Common Person and Other Stories are, like us, doing the best they can, and that is often remarkable and admirable. Considered closely, Kinder shows us, no person is common.

Download or read book The Price of Sin written by Samuel L. Hair and published by Urban Books. This book was released on 2012-04-24 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eureen, Tracey, Deja, and Jasmine are all looking for relationships that are based on strong moral values—despite their own less than moral lifestyles. Faithfully married but severely sexually frustrated, Eureen would do anything to catch her husband's eye again and reignite bedroom flames. She can't remember the last time they had sex, but when her husband suddenly passes away, she quickly finds a way to make up for lost time. A teasingly tight skirt and an extra wiggle is all Deja needs to stop Garnell's eyes from roaming to various single women in her church and focus his attention on her. In her mind, his skill level between the sheets far outweighs his criminal past. Corporate executive Jasmine is determined to turn her unemployed mama's boy of a husband into a real man, if her mother-in-law Cyreese doesn't destroy their marriage first. Tracey vows that nobody will enjoy the pleasures of her body again until she says "I do." Well, at least nobody will know about it. On their quest for love, these women will find out that sin comes with a price. Is it one they can afford?
Download or read book Emmeline written by Judith Rossner and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of Looking for Mr. Goodbar—a haunting tale of forbidden love set against the backdrop of the American industrial revolution. This is the story of Emmeline Mosher, who, before her fourteenth birthday, was sent from her home on a farm in Maine to support her family by working in a cotton mill in Massachusetts. So begins the sixth novel by the author of Looking for Mr. Goodbar. But nothing Judith Rossner has written can prepare the reader for this haunting love story of a young girl thrust into one of America’s early industrial towns, then drawn into a love affair for which she is far from ready. In Emmeline, Rossner brings us the intensity, grasp of character, and storytelling ability that have distinguished her novels of modern women.
