Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kya Martinley has been burned before, and she swears it's never going to happen again. But things are looking up for this strong woman with big dreams. She's in a great relationship-the best of her life, in fact-with Bruce, a prominent lawyer in Ponde, Louisiana. A former professional ball player, Bruce knows a thing or two about being a player, and that's just fine with Kya. After he romances her, he heads right home to another. It's the best of both worlds. Kya and her best friends-Chandenise, Airis, and Bailey-met in high school, where they formed an unusual club: BACK-or "Bountiful Ass Chicks Just Kicking It." The four friends created the club in order to turn the tables on all the shifty, lying, cheating men in their lives. Now the ladies do the using, and they get their revenge. Their friendship has never been stronger. But for someone who should know better, Kya lets herself get drawn in a little too close to the fire-literally and figuratively. With the help of her friends, she'll find a way to enjoy the heat all summer long-that is, until the fateful day a barbecue sends her running!

Download or read book The Magic Pot written by Ishmael Odeen Ishmael and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprises a collection of popular folk stories from Guyana and other countries of the Caribbean region. The starring character in all of them is Nansi whose exploits form part of the folklore of these countries. "Nansi", the starring character in all the stories, is also popularly known as "Anansi". But in Guyana and some other Caribbean countries, Nansi, the shortened form of this name, is usually preferred. Nansi, who is a spider but who sometimes takes the qualities or form of a man, or even half-man and half-spider is originally the chief trickster among the Ashanti and Akan peoples of West Africa. When some of these peoples were forcibly brought to the Caribbean and the American continent as slaves from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries, they also brought with them the tales of the exploits of Nansi, who was, and still is, variably regarded as a folk hero, a cunning trickster and also sometimes as a fool. The stories in this book are no different to the ones told in West Africa or other parts of the Caribbean and the south-east United States, even though the plots and the characters involved may vary slightly. They certainly provide tangible evidence that much of the oral traditions of people of African origin in the Americas remain intact, despite the historical trauma caused by centuries of slavery. Nansi is always outwitting the forest creatures, humans, his own family, the community in which he lives, and sometimes even deities. His character assumes various patterns. In some cases he is regarded as wise, but he can be greedy, cunning, gluttonous, stupid and dishonest. Despite these varying characteristics, Nansi is generally admired for the manner in which he outwits others. In Guyana and other countries of the English-speaking Caribbean, particularly in rural areas, the exploits of Nansi are related by older people as a form of entertainment at wakes and other community gatherings. The stories are now no longer exclusive to people of West African ancestry, since people of all ethnic origins in the these countries regard Nansi as their folk hero as well. Interestingly, all stories told at these informal community gatherings are regarded as "Nansi stories" even though Nansi may not be a character in any of them. The tales of Nansi are very imaginative and they are so embedded in the minds of people of Guyana and the Caribbean that sometimes any story that is far-fetched and hard to believe is dismissed as a "Nansi story."

Download or read book Memory Road Trip written by Krista Marson and published by Memory Road Press. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MEMORY ROAD TRIP is a collection of travel stories ranging from the sublime to the surreal as recounted by a former travel agent who saw the world on the cheap. The journey down memory road is a heartfelt excursion into the past that takes armchair explorers on an odyssey of life, love, and loneliness. The circuitous path is full of philosophical nooks and crannies, and many stories get told from the bottom of a well. Many of Krista's stories speak to the angst that simmers inside all of us as we confront the many absurdities that exist in this world. Her passion for nature, art, history, and architecture gush across the page, along with her contagious curiosity in life and her pragmatic acceptance of death. MEMORY ROAD TRIP is not only an adventurous journey to certain parts of the globe, but it is also an introspective and witty journey to the mysterious self. For as large as the world is, it has grown infinitely smaller, yet currently exists relatively out of reach. Travel, for the moment, is safer done mentally these days, so now's the time to go on a MEMORY ROAD TRIP with someone who knows the way.
