Download or read book Scorpion written by Louise M. Pryke and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2016-06-15 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No creature has quite the sting in our mythology and folklore as the scorpion. From the dawn of human civilization they have been a dangerous figure in our imaginations—poisonous, precise, and deadly quiet—but as Louise M. Pryke shows in this book, their bad reputation has overshadowed many exceptional qualities. Scurrying across hundreds of millions of years and across every continent except Antarctica, this book gives the scorpion its due as one of nature’s longest lasting survivors. Indeed scorpions are older than dinosaurs. An ancient arthropod, their form—notable for its pair of pincers and an elegant tail that holds a menacing stinger high in the air in a permanent striking position—hasn’t changed since prehistoric times, though today there are some 1700 different species. Throughout our existence scorpions have served as a powerful cultural and religious symbol—sometimes dangerous, sometimes protecting—from the Egyptian goddess Serket to Zodiac astrology to folk medicine. A fascinating tour that takes us from the art of North Africa to the American Civil War to the markets of Beijing, Scorpion is an homage to one of earth’s oldest residents.

This book was released on 2016-11-16 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ROSA MARIA MIRANDA 70, returns to Los Angeles to search for JUAN CARLOS LAMAS to fulfill a dream that has been brewing in her mind for the last thirty five years. She finds him in the gutter, ravaged by alcoholism. Her love for him mixed with a sense of pity, resurrects with the same passion she had felt at their first encounter, and she swears to do anything and everything left in her, to help him recover. Her only resource: the power of her love, believing that its strength will conquer every obstacle in their way to happiness. She doesn't count on the demons that have invaded him or the struggles and risk she must endure. A flash back in part one is full of emotion, passion, agony, triumph and defeat. To some readers the story's heroine may sound as a selfish, dysfunctional promiscuous, but she is a woman who refuses to be intimidated by the consequences she knows her foolishness may bring to her life. She feels she must take the challenge in order to find the happiness she imagines waits for her despite her advancing age. To the very young, love in old age seems a ridicule, or even grotesque. The result is a moving eulogy and a tribute to romantic love in our old age.

Download or read book Rants from the Hill written by Michael P. Branch and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “If Thoreau drank more whiskey and lived in the desert, he’d write like this.”—High Country News Welcome to the land of wildfire, hypothermia, desiccation, and rattlers. The stark and inhospitable high-elevation landscape of Nevada’s Great Basin Desert may not be an obvious (or easy) place to settle down, but for self-professed desert rat Michael Branch, it’s home. Of course, living in such an unforgiving landscape gives one many things to rant about. Fortunately for us, Branch—humorist, environmentalist, and author of Raising Wild—is a prodigious ranter. From bees hiving in the walls of his house to owls trying to eat his daughters’ cat—not to mention his eccentric neighbors—adventure, humor, and irreverence abound on Branch’s small slice of the world, which he lovingly calls Ranting Hill.
