Book excerpt: The Burning Tree, a tale of infinite emotions, depicts various characters who come and go in between but creates a significant impact in the life of Krishna. The way situations and words break him up and he stands up again with the support of people around him with no loss of hope becomes emotionally deep and robust as time passes on. Nature, the ultimate mother of all, helps him heal his scars. No matter how strong one may be, there is something more vigorous than everything; time. Time breaks and heals things, always plays a critical role in people's lives and turns everything around in seconds.

At what time could we do it? What are those wise words that changed someone's life?

Download or read book The Still Burning Bush written by Stephen Pyne and published by Scribe Publications. This book was released on 2020-02-07 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long a fire continent, Australia now finds itself at the leading edge of a fire epoch. Australia is one of the world’s fire powers. It not only has regular bushfires, but in no other country has fire made such an impact on the national culture. Over the past two decades, bushfires have reasserted themselves as an environmental, social, and political presence. And now they dominate the national conversation. The Still-Burning Bush traces the ecological and social significance of the use of fire to shape the environment through Australian history, beginning with Aboriginal usage, and the subsequent passing of the firestick to rural colonists and then to foresters, to ecologists, and back to Indigenes. Each transfer kindled public debate not only over suitable fire practices but also about how Australians should live on the land. The 2009 Black Saturday bushfires and the 2019–2020 season have heightened the sense of urgency behind this discussion. In its original 2006 edition, The Still-Burning Bush concluded with the aftershocks of the 2003 bushfires. A new preface and epilogue updates the narrative, including the global changes that are affecting Australia. Especially pertinent is the concept of a Pyrocene — the idea that humanity’s cumulative fire practices are fashioning the fire equivalent of an ice age.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS I'VE READ IN RECENT YEARS. THOUGHT PROVOKING, IMAGINATIVE AND PACKS A HELL OF AN EMOTIONAL PUNCH.” —Adrian Tchaikovsky, author of Children of Time From one of the most imaginative writers of her generation comes an extraordinary vision of the future… Ven was once a holy man, a keeper of ancient archives. It was his duty to interpret archaic texts, sorting useful knowledge from the heretical ideas of the Burning Age—a time of excess and climate disaster. For in Ven's world, such material must be closely guarded so that the ills that led to that cataclysmic era can never be repeated. But when the revolutionary Brotherhood approaches Ven, pressuring him to translate stolen writings that threaten everything he once held dear, his life will be turned upside down. Torn between friendship and faith, Ven must decide how far he's willing to go to save this new world—and how much he is willing to lose. “A riveting tale of subterfuge and deadly self-indulgence” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) from award-winning author Claire North, Notes from the Burning Age puts dystopian fiction in a whole new light.

Download or read book Gold Fame Citrus written by Claire Vaye Watkins and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-09-29 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named a Best Book of the Year by The Washington Post, NPR, Vanity Fair, LA Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Huffington Post, The Atlantic, Refinery 29, Men's Journal, Ploughshares, Lit Hub, Book Riot, Los Angeles Magazine, Powells, BookPage and Kirkus Reviews The much-anticipated first novel from a Story Prize-winning “5 Under 35” fiction writer. In 2012, Claire Vaye Watkins’s story collection, Battleborn, swept nearly every award for short fiction. Now this young writer, widely heralded as a once-in-a-generation talent, returns with a first novel that harnesses the sweeping vision and deep heart that made her debut so arresting to a love story set in a devastatingly imagined near future: Unrelenting drought has transfigured Southern California into a surreal, phantasmagoric landscape. With the Central Valley barren, underground aquifer drained, and Sierra snowpack entirely depleted, most “Mojavs,” prevented by both armed vigilantes and an indifferent bureaucracy from freely crossing borders to lusher regions, have allowed themselves to be evacuated to internment camps. In Los Angeles’ Laurel Canyon, two young Mojavs—Luz, once a poster child for the Bureau of Conservation and its enemies, and Ray, a veteran of the “forever war” turned surfer—squat in a starlet’s abandoned mansion. Holdouts, they subsist on rationed cola and whatever they can loot, scavenge, and improvise. The couple’s fragile love somehow blooms in this arid place, and for the moment, it seems enough. But when they cross paths with a mysterious child, the thirst for a better future begins. They head east, a route strewn with danger: sinkholes and patrolling authorities, bandits and the brutal, omnipresent sun. Ghosting after them are rumors of a visionary dowser—a diviner for water—and his followers, who whispers say have formed a colony at the edge of a mysterious sea of dunes. Immensely moving, profoundly disquieting, and mind-blowingly original, Watkins’s novel explores the myths we believe about others and tell about ourselves, the double-edged power of our most cherished relationships, and the shape of hope in a precarious future that may be our own.
Download or read book The Third Tree written by Craig Christian and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-05-23 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two creations mentioned in God's word: the first described in the book of Genesis, and the second being the natural world all around us. What is man's relationship to these creations, and how do these relate to the Creator? There are two trees in the Garden of Eden: The Tree of Life, and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. What were their purposes then and now? Examine the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation with Craig Christian, as he embarks with readers on a journey of discovery that reveals a third and final tree that connects many of the mysterious dots that we have all wondered about. Pairing humor with deep and fresh perspectives on creation, the fall, and salvation, readers will gain a greater understanding of the perfection of God, man's inseverable ties to creation, and awe-inspiring evidence that no detail of creation was ever completed outside of the Creator's purpose. Above all, The Third Tree contrasts God's ways with man's ways directly and simply, while demonstrating the consistency of his eternal word. When we broaden our understanding of God's perfection as expressed through his creation, and the manner in which salvation has been provided, we can only be awestruck. We can only give him glory and praise. This book will sharpen your vision and appreciation for God, his creation, and the salvation he freely offers to all.
