Life’s relentless challenges have left him without hope, a situation further compounded when his girlfriend Alicia ends their relationship. In a quest to escape his pain, Constantine takes a fateful drive to a place he holds dear, only to meet with an unexpected accident that transports him to a realm beyond the ordinary constraints of time and space. This magical world, reminiscent of myths and legends, offers Constantine a rare opportunity for a fresh start. In this extraordinary place, he encounters two pivotal figures: a young boy brimming with energy and wisdom, and a cynical old man who has given up on life. Constantine’s journey in Onirohora is fraught with challenges, as he finds himself in a land where the forces of good and evil are in a delicate balance. A veil of mystery cloaks this realm, where the convergence of religion and technology seeks to decode the mysteries of the divine. Survival in Onirohora is uncertain. Can Constantine rise against the encroaching darkness threatening to engulf him? Will he be able to harness his inner strength to transform his life and secure a better future? The outcome rests on the resilience of Constantine’s will and his newfound enlightenment in this surreal and transformative journey.

Download or read book Parental Conflict written by Jenny Reynolds and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researchers increasingly recognize the importance of early family experiences on children and the impact that inter-parental conflict has on child development. This book reviews recent research in order to show how children who experience high levels of inter-parental conflict are put at both an immediate psychological and physical risk and a longer-developing risk of recapitulating such behaviors. The authors examine topics such as the differences between destructive and constructive inter-parental conflict on child development, why some children are more adversely affected than others, and how conflict affects child physiology. Ultimately they provide suggestions for improving the futures of children who are experiencing challenging family environments today.

Download or read book Poisoned Abstraction written by Graham Bader and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A definitive resource, full of fresh insights and new revelations, on one of the most influential interwar artists This richly illustrated book offers a definitive new assessment of the oeuvre of Kurt Schwitters (1887-1948), a central figure of the interwar European avant-garde. Active as an artist, designer, publisher, performer, critic, poet, and playwright, Schwitters is best known for intimately scaled, materially rich collages and assemblages made from found objects--often refuse--that the artist described as having lost all contact with their role and history in the world at large. Considering works reaching from Schwitters's earliest collage-based pieces of 1918-19, through his 1920s advertising designs, to his seminal environmental installation the Merzbau, Graham Bader carefully unpacks the meaning behind such projects and sheds new light on the tumultuous historical conditions in which they were made. In the process, he reveals a new Schwitters--aesthetically committed and politically astute--for our time. This authoritative account reframes our understanding of Schwitters's multifaceted artistic practice and explores the complex entwinement of art, politics, and history in the modern period.
