Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of terrifying and esoteric short stories from the postulant horror writer, D. H. McKee Fifteen tales swarm up from the pages, surrounding you, lurking just out of reach, waiting for you to turn out the light. Even the mundane becomes questionable. Do you trust the mournful whistling of the custodian as he sweeps the leaves from the ancient sidewalk? What about the ghostly shadows of children dancing against the far wall of the square? Or how about those strange, creaking vines growing in the cracks of the building? The ones which seem to move away as you step closer. The thing in the road is screaming. Can you hear it? What about the strange noises over the radio, which seem to drown out the cries of the student trapped in a box, miles below the surface of the Earth?
Download or read book Blog Me Deadly written by D. H. McKee and published by ZuckerLoft Books. This book was released on 2024-06-07 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like if Fletch met Travis McGee … and they started fighting. A short story collection about an artist and part-time private investigator. “He said he’d call the RCMP immediately, and that I did some good work. He also told me to get the hell away from there. I was inclined to do what he said, for once. I was standing in the middle of a downtown parking lot in someone else’s bathing suit and flip-flops. And my hair was wet.” Meet Zack Virtue. He makes a lot of bad decisions. The first was to become a full-time artist. The second was to moonlight as a private investigator. Whether it’s foiling nuclear terrorists and bank robbers, or finding missing persons and beating the crap out of Russian mobsters, Virtue is on the case. As a private investigator, he’s a great painter. As an artist, he’s a great magnet for bullets. In this collection of stories, Zack Virtue tries to navigate the seedy world of private investigation, while half-assing his way through the seedy world of professional artists. “Blog Me Deadly” is the title story, where Virtue tries to blog his psychological issues away. He finds out quickly that even a baggage-laden artist with a highly varied skill set can become a force to be reckoned with—whether he’s wielding a paintbrush or a gun.

Download or read book Women and Civil Society in Turkey written by Ömer Çaha and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-24 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on three important interrelated issues, Women and Civil Society in Turkey challenges the classical definition, developed in the West, of civil society as an equivalent of the public sphere in which women are excluded. First it shows how feminist movements have developed a new definition of civil society to include women. Second it draws attention to the role of women in the modernization of Turkey with special reference to the debate on the possibility of an indigenous feminist movement. Finally, it underlines the contribution of feminist, Islamic and Kurdish women’s movements in the transition from an ideologically constructed, uniform public sphere to a multi-public domain. Giving attention to the influence of diverse women’s movements over Turkish political values this book sheds light into the issue of how a feminine civil society has been constructed as part of a plural public space in Turkey. Ömer Çaha argues that this new public realm is the product of values and institutions which have been developed by diverse women’s groups who have succeeded in eliminating the traditional barricades between public and domestic spheres and in steering women into public life without sacrificing their own values.

Book excerpt: An essential American novel from Sandra Dallas, an unparalleled writer of our history, and our deepest emotions... During World War II, a family finds life turned upside down when the government opens a Japanese internment camp in their small Colorado town. After a young girl is murdered, all eyes (and suspicions) turn to the newcomers, the interlopers, the strangers. This is Tallgrass as Rennie Stroud has never seen it before. She has just turned thirteen and, until this time, life has pretty much been what her father told her it should be: predictable and fair. But now the winds of change are coming and, with them, a shift in her perspective. And Rennie will discover secrets that can destroy even the most sacred things. Part thriller, part historical novel, Tallgrass is a riveting exploration of the darkest--and best--parts of the human heart.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I've spent my life weaving stories that captivate millions, yet here I am, alone in this enormous house, surrounded by silence. Success hasn't brought me the happiness I thought it would. The mansion feels more like a gilded cage, each room echoing with the emptiness of a life that looks perfect from the outside but feels anything but. One stormy night, as the rain pounds against the windows and the power goes out, I'm plunged into darkness both literally and figuratively. While searching for candles, I stumble upon something I never expected: a hidden door behind my bookshelf. A door I've never seen before, leading to a secret room buried deep within the walls of my own home. What lies beyond that door? As I step inside, I'm faced with a mystery that shakes the foundations of everything I thought I knew. This discovery could finally fill the void I've been living with for so long or it might just lead me deeper into the darkness.

Download or read book Family Language Policy written by Sonia Wilson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-31 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the question of family language policy in multilingual households. Presenting six case studies which focus on the experiences of parents and children in French-English bilingual contexts, the author draws conclusions about the impact of parental language management on the family as a whole which can be applied to transnational families from other linguistic backgrounds. While many parental guides on bilingual childrearing have been published in recent years, little attention has been paid to the possible impact of such language strategies on the experiences and interrelationships of bilingual family members. This book is unique in focusing in depth on the psychology and experiences of the child, and it will be of interest to readers in fields as diverse as sociolinguistics, language policy and planning, sociology of youth and family, and child psychology.
