Book excerpt: “Suzanne Scanlon enters the inverted space of grief and near-madness with courage, intelligence, and wit—and with a small, sharp light for us to follow.” —Dawn Raffel A series of fragmentary tales tells the story of Lizzie, a young woman who, in her early twenties, unexpectedly embarks on a journey through psychiatric institutions, a journey that will end up lasting many years. With echoes of Sylvia Plath, and against a cultural backdrop that includes Shakespeare, Woody Allen, and Heathers, Suzanne Scanlon’s first novel is both a deeply moving account of a life of crisis and a brilliantly original work of art.

Download or read book Intuition s Logic Poetry written by Kanika Badhan Raina and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2011-04-04 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is what this is to you, because this is how I sing, how I paint, how I dance, how I live. It is freedom in the limitless space that allows words to unrestraint the self through slanted blacks, that became, become; people, places, and thoughts of my past present future. Feel the poems as photographs taken in a real and raw snap as the moment is captured. Through the years it has become a story of a meditation in love. Written without editing or re-reading to keep to its truth. These poems are a memoir/autobiography in words that are intuitive and immediate reactions to breaths taken and forgotten to take and never taken, and the broken sighs in between. We breathe in, and breathe out. The air and everything between these breathes are the experiences that materialize life; become words. Taking readers through travels, growth, spirituality and finally, finding the soul mate of this timeless existence; these are my insides turned outside.
Download or read book Law and Society in Transition written by Philippe Nonet and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Year by year, law seems to penetrate ever larger realms of social, political, and economic life, generating both praise and blame. Nonet and Selznick's Law and Society in Transition explains in accessible language the primary forms of law as a social, political, and normative phenomenon. They illustrate with great clarity the fundamental difference between repressive law, riddled with raw conflict and the accommodation of special interests, and responsive law, the reasoned effort to realize an ideal of polity. To make jurisprudence relevant, legal, political, and social theory must be reintegrated. As a step in this direction, Nonet and Selznick attempt to recast jurisprudential issues in a social science perspective. They construct a valuable framework for analyzing and assessing the worth of alternative modes of legal ordering. The volume's most enduring contribution is the authors' typology-repressive, autonomous, and responsive law. This typology of law is original and especially useful because it incorporates both political and jurisprudential aspects of law and speaks directly to contemporary struggles over the proper place of law in democratic governance. In his new introduction, Robert A. Kagan recasts this classic text for the contemporary world. He sees a world of responsive law in which legal institutions-courts, regulatory agencies, alternative dispute resolution bodies, police departments-are periodically studied and redesigned to improve their ability to fulfill public expectations. Schools, business corporations, and governmental bureaucracies are more fully pervaded by legal values. Law and Society in Transition describes ways in which law changes and develops. It is an inspiring vision of a politically responsive form of governance, of special interest to those in sociology, law, philosophy, and politics.
Download or read book Charting an Asian Trajectory for Literacy Education written by Su Li Chong and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-14 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weaving outwards from a centripetal force of biographical stances, this book presents the collective perspectives of literacy researchers from Brunei, China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines and Taiwan. It represents the first all-Asian initiative to showcase the region’s post-colonial, multilingual and multicultural narratives of literacy education. This book provides a much-needed platform that initiates important conversations about literacy as a sociocultural practice in a region that is both challenged and shaped by sociocultural influence unique to Asia’s historical and geopolitical trajectory. Driven by the authors’ lived experiences of becoming literate as well as their empirical research work in later years, each chapter brings decades of biographical narratives and collective empirical research findings to bear. Within the book are negotiations about literacy across and within home and school contexts; transactions of literature, text and reader; and considerations of the literacy policy-practice nexus. These trajectories, while divergent in their issues, come together as shared lived experience located in local contexts considered through global perspectives. As Asia looks set to become the 21st century’s new economic and labour force, the need to understand the sociocultural milieu of this region cannot be understated. This book on literacy education in Asia contributes to the larger narrative.
Download or read book Dark Horizon written by Michael David and published by Oghma Creative Media. This book was released on 2019-05-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pearl of Spirituality Shines Brightest Amidst the Heart of Darkness. Darkness haunts Sherry Whittington. To the outside world, she's a typical thirty-seven-year old woman. Inwardly, she battles schizophrenia, but when Sherry discovers she is also psychically gifted, it is one more burden she must endure. Cadence McShane is an FBI remote viewer on a covert mission in West Texas trying to find an ancient crystal capable of mass destruction. When the search leads him to Sherry, Cadence is stunned when she intuits his true identity but he quickly exploits her psychic ability to his advantage. Together, driven by a chemistry neither of them can deny, Cadence and Sherry race to uncover the crystal before domestic terrorists can use it in on U.S. soil. The pair's every move is being anticipated by the terrorist group’s strong arm, Morda, a sadistic hermaphrodite who feeds upon chaos. Sherry is no match for Morda or his twisted obsession of wreaking havoc upon all those that enter his path. Armed with only childlike spiritual guidance and the backfiring curses of a vengeful psychic, Sherry must accept and embrace her new ability if she and Cadence are to overcome Morda and reach the crystal first. Drawing readers into a compelling and twisted world dominated by deceit and intrigue, Dark Horizon introduces a sadistic villain battling a damaged heroine struggling with her own sanity and faith.
