  • Release : 2017-02-25
  • ISBN : 9781543282313
  • Pages : 66 pages

Download or read book Shadowed Lives written by Dortith and published by . This book was released on 2017-02-25 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected from a body of work created over many years, this anthology is one of five that form the larger volume, Shadowed Realities. Shadowed seemed to be an appropriate word to describe the general sense and mood of most of the poems from which these have been gathered. Though their subject matter, form, length and themes are different they reflect a point of view and mindset that has remained remarkably unchanged over an entire adult lifetime. This volume, Shadowed Lives, contains just four poems based on characters whose lives seemed fated to fail. The embittered lover in La Monstre. The isolated and despondent Lily Maid of Astolat. The world weary outcast in Vampyre, sad, returns. The doomed sailor caught in another's obsession in Moby Dick. Though these are fictional figures aspects of their experiences, outlook and sense of entrapment are things we can all relate to though in quite different contexts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Originally a student of music, [Gurney] took up poetry in the trenches of the First World War, and was working on what would be his first volume of verse when, in 1917, he suffered wounds to the shoulder; and it was just before publication of this volume, Severn & Somme, that he was gassed at Passchendaele. After his return to Britain he resumed his musical studies, ... and quickly found outlets for his compositions. There is some debate about whether or not his subsequent mental illness was a consequence of the horrors and sufferings of the war; but mental illness marked the rest of his life, and indeed from about 1922 until his death he was institutionalised ... He nevertheless continued to produce poems and musical compositions in prolific fashion, and his works in both areas are read and performed, respectively, to this day"--

Book Border Lives

  • Author : Sergio Chávez
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2016-02-03
  • ISBN : 0199380600
  • Pages : 225 pages

Download or read book Border Lives written by Sergio Chávez and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-02-03 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Border Lives, Sergio Chávez moves past Tijuana's notorious image as a hub of sex, drugs, and crime to tell the story of the diverse group of individuals who use both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border as a resource to construct their livelihoods. Based on ethnographic observation and in-depth interviews, Chávez explores the complex and often contradictory ways in which the border influences the livelihood strategies and lifestyles of border crossers. The border shapes respondents' knowledge and relationships, controls their time, and allows them to convert U.S. wages into a Mexican standard of living without losing the social and cultural comforts of Tijuana-as-home. A substantial contribution to migration and labor studies, Border Lives provides empirical grounding to theories of how geographical borders shape human action.

Book excerpt: Poet and novelist Hiromi Goto effortlessly blends wry, observational slice-of-life literary fiction with poetic magical realism in the tender and surprising graphic novel Shadow Life, with haunting art from debut artist Ann Xu. When Kumiko’s well-meaning adult daughters place her in an assisted living home, the seventy-six-year-old widow gives it a try, but it’s not where she wants to be. She goes on the lam and finds a cozy bachelor apartment, keeping the location secret even while communicating online with her eldest daughter. Kumiko revels in the small, daily pleasures: decorating as she pleases, eating what she wants, and swimming in the community pool. But something has followed her from her former residence—Death’s shadow. Kumiko’s sweet life is shattered when Death’s shadow swoops in to collect her. With her quick mind and sense of humor, Kumiko, with the help of friends new and old, is prepared for the fight of her life. But how long can an old woman thwart fate?
