Book The Dolphin and the Octopus  A Fable

Download or read book The Dolphin and the Octopus A Fable written by CS Simpson and published by CS Stories. This book was released on 2022-01-14 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when the peaceful Advisor’s Reef receives a frightening new visitor? Escape from your daily routine and travel underwater to a colossal coral reef where the creatures of the world's single superocean look to wise advisors, Makani the dolphin and Annora the octopus. Listen in as the advisors offer guidance about relationship dynamics, changing careers, preconceptions about others, and more. The lessons represented in this unusual story are age-old, yet still timely for every culture. Complete The Fable Triad with The Elephant and the Dragon and The Mermaid and the River Otter. Though each of the fables are separate tales with separate characters, they embody the same global time frame and can be read in any order. They begin almost identically, much like Kipling's Just So Stories, in order to set the tone and rhythm as complementary to the other two. But—worry not! Each fable offers its own unique account without following the same pattern throughout.

Book The World Doesn t Require You  Stories

Download or read book The World Doesn t Require You Stories written by Rion Amilcar Scott and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist • PEN / Jean Stein Book Award Longlisted • Aspen Words Literary Prize Best Books of the Year: Washington Post, NPR, Buzzfeed and Entropy Best Short Story Collections of the Year: Kirkus Reviews, Library Journal, the New York Public Library, and Electric Literature Welcome to Cross River, Maryland, where Rion Amilcar Scott creates a mythical universe peopled by some of the most memorable characters in contemporary American fiction. Set in the mythical Cross River, Maryland, The World Doesn’t Require You heralds “a major unique literary talent” (Entertainment Weekly). Established by the leaders of America’s only successful slave revolt in the mid-nineteenth century, the town still evokes the rhythms of its founding. With lyrical prose and singular dialect, Rion Amilcar Scott pens a saga that echoes the fables carried down for generations—like the screecher birds who swoop down for their periodic sacrifice, and the water women who lure men to wet death. Among its residents—wildly spanning decades, perspectives, and species—are David Sherman, a struggling musician who just happens to be God’s last son; Tyrone, a ruthless, yet charismatic Ph.D. candidate, whose dissertation about a childhood game ignites mayhem in the neighboring, once-segregated town of Port Yooga; and Jim, an all-too-obedient robot who obeys his Master. Culminating with an explosive novella, The World Doesn’t Require You is a “leap into a blazing new level of brilliance” (Lauren Groff) that affirms Rion Amilcar Scott as a writer whose storytelling gifts the world very much requires.
