Book Chicken Soup for the Soul  Angels All Around

Download or read book Chicken Soup for the Soul Angels All Around written by Amy Newmark and published by Chicken Soup for the Soul. This book was released on 2019-08-27 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These true personal stories of angels, miracles, answered prayers, and divine intervention will deepen your faith and open your eyes to the angels, guardians, and guides in your life. Miracles happen every day to people from all walks of life. And angels are all around if we are open to seeing them and accepting their help. You’ll be inspired, awed and comforted by these 101 stories from ordinary people who’ve had extraordinary experiences, including: The young family caught in a snowstorm who were rescued by a man named David and hosted in his cabin—who learned afterwards that David and his family had died three years earlier on the same highway they were stuck on The widow who had been making snow angels with her husband for decades and then found two perfect ones in the fresh snow by his memorial bench one wintry morning—with no footprints leading to them The daughter whose dying mother promised to send flowers, who returned from the funeral to find her mom’s almost dead Christmas cacti had blossomed, covering an entire room with flowers The mother who saw her husband hoisting their little girl by one arm from a lake she’d fallen into, but didn’t see the man her husband says was holding the girl’s other arm The notoriously grumpy old man in a nursing home who spent a whole day happily saying goodbye to everyone and thanking them because an angel told him, correctly, it would be his last day on earth The teenager working in a hotel kitchen who was pushed away by an invisible force while standing in a group of people, and just missed being hit by a large piece of equipment that fell right where she’d been standing

Book Ex sistere

Download or read book Ex sistere written by María Jesús Lorenzo-Modia and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-02-08 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of critical essays addresses literary discourses on the mobility of women writers in various Atlantic regions of Europe. These literary systems (Ireland, Galicia, and Wales) experienced a rebirth in the second half of the twentieth century through their respective modern cultural artefacts, and the first decades of the present century have seen new research exploring emergent literatures in Europe, new European identities on the move, and even the dialogue between the various cultures of the Atlantic archipelago. This book centres on women writers and how they deal in their work with the issue of mobility. Authors and critics have tended to analyse travel by focusing on the transgression of patriarchal models of Western societies by white, middle-class women, these previously being mainly restricted to the private sphere, as well as on postcolonial issues with ethno- and Euro-centric slants. Notions of the construction of otherness are at stake here, in that even white women may be considered as belonging to a different ethnic group when they are migrants, thus showing how vulnerable and dependent women can be when isolated in a different environment. The narrative of history as progress may also be challenged in the twenty-first century by visions of nomadic women at risk of being displaced, both in their homeland and abroad.

  • Publisher : iUniverse
  • Release : 2000-06-15
  • ISBN : 059500959X
  • Pages : 297 pages

Download or read book Far from the Angels written by Ben Tarver and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-06-15 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young gringais rescued from Pancho Villa's raid on Columbus, New Mexico in 1916 and spirited into Chihuahua. She is forced to pass as a boy and live in squalor, subject to all the horrors and bloodshed of the 20th century's first major revolution. She becomes a pianist/spy in a bordello before joining Villa's doradosto fight side by side with her dashing Mexican lover in the cause of land reform and freedom. Her dangerous exploits carry her into the far reaches of the Sierra Madre where she encounters both love and death. Captain George Patton, an officer in General "Blackjack" Pershing's expeditionary force, apprehends this "revolutionary Villista," discovers she is really a young girl and sends her back to her wealthy father in New York. The lure of adventure and her love for the boy she left behind compels her to return to Mexico in search of him so they can continue the fight for justice—and the right to pursue their passion and love in peace. “Tarver, a bred-in-the-bone southwesterner, knows his milieu well, and brings the times, the Mexican revolution and his gutsy young heroine to roaring, bodacious life!” —Les Roberts, prize-winning author and a reviewer for The Cleveland Plain-Dealer “Ben Tarver has crafted another beautifully detailed story of action, romance and drama, played against the gripping panorama of the Mexican Revolution. It will move you to tears and laughter.” —Elaine Boies, editor and critic, Staten Island Advance

Book The Arts in Canada

    Book Details:
  • Author : William J. Keith
  • Publisher : University of Toronto Press
  • Release : 1980-12-15
  • ISBN : 148759075X
  • Pages : 174 pages

Download or read book The Arts in Canada written by William J. Keith and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1980-12-15 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume a baker's dozen of creative Canadians make personal responses to the state of the arts in Canada: Northrop Frye and Guy Rocher write on general cultural trends; Hugh MacLennan and Gérard Bessette on fiction; Ralph Gustafson and Michèle Lalonde on poetry; Robertson Davies and Gratien Gélinas on drama; George Woodcock and Jacques Allard on non-fiction prose; Godfrey Ridout on music, and Aba Bayefsky and Humphrey N. Milnes on art. The essays were written to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the University of Toronto Quarterly. The contributors were invited to discuss the changes, problems, challenges, and achievements in the arts in the last fifty years. Since all the authors had personal experience of at least a large section of the period surveyed, the editors welcomed personal reminiscence as well as description and assessment. The result is a varied group of essays in each of which the character of the individual artist is clearly evident; together, they provide a complex, many-faceted, lively, and living discussion of the cultural development of Canada. This anniversary collection of essays is a valuable and provocative source for courses in Canadian studies and for anyone interested in the development of the arts and humanities in Canada.

  • Author : Tina Howe
  • Publisher : Theatre Communications Group
  • Release : 2022-08-30
  • ISBN : 1636701086
  • Pages : 204 pages

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tina Howe once said that her aim is "to present a lovely exterior, then seduce the audience into the dark and mysterious places inside." Her four major plays to date are noted for their unusual and elegant settings: an art museum, a French restaurant, a Beacon Hill townhouse, a New England beach. These worlds overflow with hilarious, outlandish, vivid life -- wittily imagined, eloquently rendered, fearlessly explored. Their inhabitants are absurd, anguished, gallant. A delight to experience in the theatre, the tragicomedies of this acclaimed American artist are just as engaging to read. Includes: Coastal Disturbances, Painting Churches. The Art of Dining and Museum.

This foray into the deeply serious and deeply funny (sometimes at the same time) world of life after 40 focuses primarily on scenes that depict the struggles of contemporary characters to come to terms with disappointment and obsolescence or to redeem their lives from the mistakes or miscalculations of their youth. It draws heavily on American classics like Long Day's Journey into Night , Death of a Salesman , The Price , Glengarry Glen Ross , Fences , and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? , as well as more recent classics-in-the-making like August: Osage County , Good People , and God of Carnage . There is also ample representation from British playwrights like Harold Pinter, Tom Stoppard, Simon Gray, and Peter Nichols, whose work also explores this territory of growing older in a society obsessed by youth and novelty.
