Unless they have been written.In Canaan, your book is your truth and your identity, and Nadia knows exactly who hasn't written the truth. Because Nadia is the only person in Canaan who has never forgotten.But when Nadia begins to use her memories to solve the mysteries of Canaan, she discovers truths about herself and Gray, the handsome glassblower, that will change her world forever. As the anarchy of the Forgetting approaches, Nadia and Gray must stop an unseen enemy that threatens both their city and their own existence -- before the people can forget the truth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Will you go to hell for me? asked the Lord. I remember standing in my living room stunned. It took me a few days to be able to answer him. I replied with a shaking, Yes. He then took me in a vision to the gates of hell. I could smell the sulfur and feel the heat. The gates were huge thick black iron, they swung open as I approached. I was standing on stepping stones just big enough for my feet and lava swirled around the stones. I heard the Lords voice, Dont be afraid Carolyn. I have a net around you and yours. I looked and saw a large net all around me. I continued along the stones and then I saw it - a hand reached desperately to me out of the lava. I grabbed a hold and pulled for all I was worth! The vision ended. From that vision, I learned there are people all around us who are in the own personal hells. We are to set the captives free! The Lord gave me a way to help. It is called Spiritual Body Mapping and it works! It is an amazing way to quickly diagnose and target the strengths as well as areas that need to be addressed in an individuals life. As you read this book, I pray for the spirit of wisdom and revelation to enlighten you. God Bless you, Carolyn Steidley

Book excerpt: A child explores her neighborhood on a late-night walk with her dad, finding delight and comfort in moments of quiet and the warm windows into other people’s lives. When a little girl can’t sleep one night, her dad asks if she’d like to go for a walk. They tiptoe through the silent house and step out into the dark. It’s strange and exciting to be out so late. Walking down the street, the girl can see inside the lit-up windows of apartment buildings and houses where people’s lives are unfolding. Kids are having a pillow fight in one house, while a family has gathered for a festive meal in another. She and her dad reach the still-busy shopping area, walking past restaurants and enticing store windows, then stop for a tranquil moment in the park before returning home. Sara O’Leary has captured a child’s nighttime wonder as she explores her neighborhood and comes to the comforting realization that she belongs. Ellie Arscott’s illustrations, luminous and rich in color, perfectly complement the story.

Download or read book Wanderers written by Kerri Andrews and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2020-10-07 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering a beguiling view of the history of walking, Wanderers guides us through the different ways of seeing—of being—articulated by ten pathfinding women writers. “A wild portrayal of the passion and spirit of female walkers and the deep sense of ‘knowing’ that they found along the path.”—Raynor Winn, author of The Salt Path “I opened this book and instantly found that I was part of a conversation I didn't want to leave. A dazzling, inspirational history.”—Helen Mort, author of No Map Could Show Them This is a book about ten women over the past three hundred years who have found walking essential to their sense of themselves, as people and as writers. Wanderers traces their footsteps, from eighteenth-century parson’s daughter Elizabeth Carter—who desired nothing more than to be taken for a vagabond in the wilds of southern England—to modern walker-writers such as Nan Shepherd and Cheryl Strayed. For each, walking was integral, whether it was rambling for miles across the Highlands, like Sarah Stoddart Hazlitt, or pacing novels into being, as Virginia Woolf did around Bloomsbury. Offering a beguiling view of the history of walking, Wanderers guides us through the different ways of seeing—of being—articulated by these ten pathfinding women.

Download or read book A WHITE GUY S WALK THROUGH BLACK AMERICA written by Larry Fuqua and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-12-07 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My book attempts to give an honest portrayal of my life much lived in America's black world. The "Black world of America" from my experiences is very much different than that of White America profoundly, so I found, through my experiences, study, and observations that there is a dislike and hatred may not be too strong a word to describe the feeling prevalent in Black America. I don't feel my description is, in any way, an exaggeration. I am also the author of more than one hundred essays on race, Black racism, and a proponent for the adaption of a new college course (may be adaptable for high school juniors and seniors) titled "Comparative Racism." I also describe my fourteen years policing in Black neighborhoods with a Black partner. I look at police corruption, corrupt city officials, and I describe my personal experiences and knowledge of events and members of the Chicago's south suburban mafia. I give insight into personal experiences with Black racists and racism at various level in Black America. I covered my time as a White student at an HBCU and my many intimacies with black sistas, including my marriage to a Black woman. Sex, crime, corruption, mafia, racism, hatred, corporate intrigues, it's all between these pages, much of which, I am not proud. I am not Black, but I know I had a perch few other White people have had in my personal experiences. You be the judge, but for me, I am not optimistic about the future of Black and White America. Tell me it ain't so.
