Download or read book The Girl I Am Was and Never Will Be written by Shannon Gibney and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2023-01-10 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Michael L. Printz Award Honor Book Part memoir, part speculative fiction, this novel explores the often surreal experience of growing up as a mixed-Black transracial adoptee. Dream Country author Shannon Gibney returns with a new book woven from her true story of growing up as the adopted Black daughter of white parents and the fictional story of Erin Powers, the name Shannon was given at birth by the white woman who gave her up for adoption. At its core, the novel is a tale of two girls on two different timelines occasionally bridged by a mysterious portal and their shared search for a complete picture of their origins. Gibney surrounds that story with reproductions of her own adoption documents, letters, family photographs, interviews, medical records, and brief essays on the surreal absurdities of the adoptee experience. The end result is a remarkable portrait of an American experience rarely depicted in any form.

Book excerpt: I assume you are unaware of the impending Apocalypse, Lucifer’s minions hunting people, or the ticking clock while the world lives in ignorance. Are you ready to face your demons? Humanity invoked an ancient apocalyptic pact four centuries ago. Since then, demon attacks, known as the Test of Mettle, occur – always at 11:34 at night – targeting random people ranging from simple peasants to former president Theodore Roosevelt, and they happen all over the world, even in the infamous Amityville House. The Executive leads a dedicated group on a quest to save humanity by gathering clues. He discovers a mysterious box containing evidence about the Apocalypse, and unknowingly sends his team into an ambush to retrieve it. They lose the owner of the box, one of their prized agents, and nearly the Executive himself. The attack reveals a sinister threat lurking in the shadows, one that wants to see the world end. When they open the strange box, it exposes proof of a heavenly host on Earth – the very same immortal being who invoked the Apocalypse.

Download or read book Cataclysms written by Michael R. Rampino and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-22 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1980, the science world was stunned when a maverick team of researchers proposed that a massive meteor strike had wiped the dinosaurs and other fauna from the Earth 66 million years ago. Scientists found evidence for this theory in a “crater of doom” on the Yucatán Peninsula, showing that our planet had once been a target in a galactic shooting gallery. In Cataclysms, Michael R. Rampino builds on the latest findings from leading geoscientists to take “neocatastrophism” a step further, toward a richer understanding of the science behind major planetary upheavals and extinction events. Rampino recounts his conversion to the impact hypothesis, describing his visits to meteor-strike sites and his review of the existing geological record. The new geology he outlines explicitly rejects nineteenth-century “uniformitarianism,” which casts planetary change as gradual and driven by processes we can see at work today. Rampino offers a cosmic context for Earth’s geologic evolution, in which cataclysms from above in the form of comet and asteroid impacts and from below in the form of huge outpourings of lava in flood-basalt eruptions have led to severe and even catastrophic changes to the Earth’s surface. This new geology sees Earth’s position in our solar system and galaxy as the keys to understanding our planet’s geology and history of life. Rampino concludes with a controversial consideration of dark matter’s potential as a triggering mechanism, exploring its role in heating Earth’s core and spurring massive volcanism throughout geologic time.
