Book excerpt: If only I could have been a daddy’s girl I would not of had grown up in that monster’s world That monster he came calling for me in his house I was scared as can be Jamae Vandegraph remembers—and wishes she couldn’t. She remembers the man long ago who took her to a cold, dark, unfurnished upstairs bedroom equipped with an old wooden tripod with a big camera that rested on its top. She remembers this room because this is where he undressed her and forced her to touch him. She remembers being cold, scared, and alone. Most of all, she remembers closing her eyes and wishing she was anywhere but there. In an autobiographical collection of prose and poetry, Vandegraph reflects on the anger and hurt that accompanied being a victim of sexual abuse as a young girl. In poignant verse that explores the terrifying moments when she was pulled out of her innocence and into the darkness, Vandegraph shares how she was victimized and eventually healed through forgiveness, self-love, and hope for a new future. A Single Tear is a memoir of prose and poems that leads others on a heartbreaking path through childhood sexual abuse and ultimately into the bright light of healing.

Download or read book Two Faces Equal One Tear written by Marshay Cliff and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2021-07-12 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tragedy has hit home for Marshay Cliff with the murder of her youngest son, Daniel, who was accidentally shot in the head by a cousin while the cousin played with a gun. The murder is a crushing blow for Marshay, and she wants to die also. The pain is too much for her to bear. While there are others hurting over the death of their grandson, their brother, their uncle, and friend, it is Marshay who feels she has lost the most. For a parent to have to bury a child, life itself seems to have been buried as well. There no longer seems a reason to live. But then, pain clears the vision of what life really entails. Life is not one-sided. Parents who lose a child must find new ways to live in order to function while still accepting and dealing with heartache and pain that comes with death of any kind. The parent must also realize that she is not the only one who hurts or suffers and that regardless of the loss, many people suffer and feels pain due to the death of a loved one. Therefore, Marshay’s purpose in Two Faces Equal One Tear is to shed light upon all deceased and their hurting survivors. She aims to demonstrate that though everyone’s pain is different and their suffering unique, all can be united in grief. No one should have to deal with the death of a loved one alone, especially the death of a child. Can the death of a child be overcome? Can love bring joy and happiness back after dealing with such tragedy? Should parents deem their loss greater than the loss of another? Marshay attempts to answer all these questions and more. Enjoy the story of tragedy, love, and God’s purpose for life after death.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Near the edge of the Baltic Sea, in a small East Prussian town, lives a happy and prosperous family. The Wobsers are patriotic Germans and faithful Lutherans with four beautiful children: chatty Trude, fearless Lotte, careful Ilse, and precocious Gerhard. The decade-older sisters treat Gerhard as their little prince. He is the apple of his father's eye. Then, one day in 1933, their world falls apart. They have been identified as Jews, a heritage never denied, but a religion never embraced. This chilling true story follows the four Wobser siblings as they struggle to survive a Nazi regime intent on their extermination. Even those that manage to flee will find themselves without a home or country to call their own. From Edinburgh to Shanghai, the Wobsers will travel the world in search of a place they belong. Author and historical chronicler Ralph Webster (a descendent of the Wobsers) deftly connects their story and survival to the struggles modern refugees face every day. In addition to serving as a fascinating piece of history, A Smile in One Eye: A Tear in the Other is a passionate call to arms for organizations and individuals to properly protect and help the world's refugees.

Book excerpt: Dying isn’t an option. I’ve survived a kidnapping and now I’m on the run from the Knights of the Dragon who want my gift. I’m Abigail Owens and I can sense gemstones. There’s nothing a dragon loves more than treasure. But when I find a beautiful stone at a tiny shop in Moscow, I have no idea it’s a drakon tear, or that I’ve just put myself in the middle of a war between the Knights and a Drakon. I guess I’m just lucky like that. The only person I trust even a little is Vasili Zima, which is weird since I’m not sure if he wants to kill me or protect me. I’m drawn to him in a way I hadn’t thought possible, and he feels the same way, or he wouldn’t be risking his life to help me. He’s wanted by the bad guys just as much as I am, and staying with me, well, there’s a hundred percent chance I’m about to get us both killed. But I will not be going down without a fight.

Download or read book The Topography of Tears written by and published by Bellevue Literary Press. This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “When you first view Rose-Lynn Fisher’s photographs, you might think you’re looking down at the world from an airplane, at dunes, skyscrapers or shorelines. In fact, you’re looking at her tears. . . . [There’s] poetry in the idea that our emotional terrain bears visual resemblance to the physical world; that our tears can look like the vistas we see out an airplane window. Fisher’s images are the only remaining trace of these places, which exist during a moment of intense feeling—and then vanish.” —NPR “[A] delicate, intimate book. . . . In The Topography of Tears photographer Rose-Lynn Fisher shows us a place where language strains to express grief, longing, pride, frustration, joy, the confrontation with something beautiful, the confrontation with an onion.” —Boston Globe Does a tear shed while chopping onions look different from a tear of happiness? In this powerful collection of images, an award-winning photographer trains her optical microscope and camera on her own tears and those of men, women, and children, released in moments of grief, pain, gratitude, and joy, and captured upon glass slides. These duotone photographs reveal the beauty of recurring patterns in nature and present evocative, crystalline imagery for contemplation. Underscored by poetic captions, they translate the mysterious act of crying into an atlas mapping the structure and magnificence of our interior lives. Rose-Lynn Fisher is an artist and author of the International Photography Award-winning studies Bee and The Topography of Tears. Her photographs are exhibited in galleries, festivals, and museums across the world and have been featured by the Dr. Oz Show, NPR, Smithsonian, Harper’s, New Yorker, Time, Wired, Reader’s Digest, Discover, Brain Pickings, and elsewhere. She received her BFA from Otis Art Institute and lives in Los Angeles.
