Download or read book Snow in Amman written by Alexander Haddad and published by Faraxa Publishing (USA). This book was released on 2015-06-03 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filled with deeply nuanced storytelling and vividly drawn, often heartbreaking human characters, "Snow in Amman: An Anthology of Short Stories From Jordan" is a rich selection of contemporary Jordanian fiction which stands in stark contrast to many of the prevailing stereotypes of Arabic culture. Outside the archaeological lens, very little is known about life in Jordan, particularly in the English-speaking world. Such lack makes it more susceptible to falling into the soup of widespread generalizations about the Middle East. The 11 stories in "Snow in Amman, " published in their original Arabic in Jordan and appearing in this book for the first time in English, depict a wide array of social and feminist issues through a lens at once familiar and surprising, commonplace and yet intensely different.

Download or read book Eternal Snow written by David B. Austell and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Asian & Asian American Studies. ETERNAL SNOW is a testament to the power of words to inspire, encourage, and heal across vastly disparate cultures and distant places. Over one hundred and twenty-five poets from around the world come together in this anthology to explore their interactions, collisions, and intersections with Yuyutsu Sharma, renowned Himalayan poet, journalist, translator, and editor from Kathmandu, Nepal. The book is a clear example of the new world itinerancy of the modern poet, and the global efficacy of poetry, in that Yuyu's world travels have touched the hearts and minds of thousands of people who have heard his readings around the world and read his words in print and online. Not all the contributors are professional poets. ETERNAL SNOW also captures the poetic voices of a hairstylist, a photographer, a Yoga teacher, a priest, a nurse, and a social scientist. In these pages, a young poet in Kathmandu sees her late father in Yuyu's face; a social worker conjures the Goddess of the Children while serving the Bhutanese refugees in California; a New York University professor ponders an Asian challenge: setting her house on fire to become a real poet. The results captured in these poems attest to the literary collisions which occur when global poets meet. ETERNAL SNOW is a singular, remarkable, and moving work of art. Includes poetry by John Clarke, David Ray, James Ragan, Ravi Shankar, Eileen O'Connor, Gorka Lasa, Pascale Petit, Elena Karina Byrne, Chuck Joy, Amarendra Khatua, Ruth Danon, Tim Tomlinson, Verónica Aranda, David Axlerod, Tony Barnstone, Art Good Times, Kim Nuzzo, Robin Mets, Barbara Novack, Hélène Cardona, Irene O' Garden, Agnes Marton, Carolyn Wells, M.

Download or read book How Winter Began written by Joy Castro and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Iréne gives the wealthy businessmen what they want, diving headfirst into the filthy river, thinking only of providing for her baby daughter, Marisa, as the men salivate over her soaked body emerging onto the bank. A young boy tries to befriend the reticent younger sister of the town's cruelest bully, only to discover the family betrayal behind her quiet countenance. Josefa, a young bride, is executed for murdering the man who raped her. Joy Castro's How Winter Began traces these and other characters as they seek compassion from each other and themselves.

The question at the heart of this riveting book is how or whether to trust one another after the rupture of betrayal.
