Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two isolated teens struggle against their complicated lives to find a true connection in this “timely and timeless” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) debut novel about first love and the wreckage of growing up. Lily is returning to her privileged Manhattan high school after a harrowing end to her sophomore year and it’s not pretty. She hates chemistry and her spiteful lab partner, her friends are either not speaking to her or suffocating her with concerned glances, and nothing seems to give her joy anymore. Worst of all, she can’t escape her own thoughts about what drove her away from everyone in the first place. Enter Dari (short for Dariomauritius), the artistic and mysterious transfer student, adept at cutting class. Not that he’d rather be at home with his domineering Trinidadian father. Dari is everything that Lily needs: bright, creative, honest, and unpredictable. And in a school where no one really stands out, Dari finds Lily’s sensitivity and openness magnetic. Their attraction ignites immediately, and for the first time in what feels like forever, Lily and Dari find happiness in each other. In twenty-first-century New York City, the fact that Lily is white and Dari is black shouldn’t matter that much, but nothing’s as simple as it seems. When tragedy becomes reality, can friendship survive even if romance cannot?
Download or read book The Truth Book written by Joy Castro and published by Arcade Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You must always, always tell the truth, no matter the consequences, for you must model yourself on Jehovah, and Jehovah does not lie. This is the most crucial rule of all, Joy Castro is told as a young girl in a Jehovahs Witness family. Joy is 12 years old when her divorced mother marries a brother in the church. He is highly respected in the community, having displayed the ultimate sign of spiritual devotion: he served at Bethel, the Watchtower headquarters in Brooklyn. At home, however, he is a despicable brute. For the two years her mother is married to him, Joy does not grow at all; in fact, she loses 16 pounds, an eloquent testimony to the physical, emotional, psychological, and sexual abuse she suffers at his hands. Her battered mother does nothing to protect her, nor does her church. She is sustained by a consuming fascination for horses and books and her protective love for her younger brother. Their daring escape from this unspeakable cruelty, to discover a nurturing home with their father, is the key to their survival and salvation.
Download or read book All the Truth Is Out written by Matt Bai and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now a major motion picture "The Front Runner" starring Hugh Jackman An NPR Best Book of the Year In May 1987, Colorado Senator Gary Hart—a dashing, reform-minded Democrat—seemed a lock for the party’s presidential nomination and led George H. W. Bush by double digits in the polls. Then, in one tumultuous week, rumors of marital infidelity and a newspaper’s stakeout of Hart’s home resulted in a media frenzy the likes of which had never been seen before. Through the spellbindingly reported story of the Senator’s fall from grace, Matt Bai, Yahoo News columnist and former chief political correspondent for The New York Times Magazine, shows the Hart affair to be far more than one man’s tragedy: rather, it marked a crucial turning point in the ethos of political media, and the new norms of life in the public eye. All the Truth Is Out is a tour de force portrait of the American way of politics at the highest level, one that changes our understanding of how we elect our presidents and how the bedrock of American values has shifted under our feet.

Download or read book The Truth is No Defense written by Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff and published by World Encounter Institute/New English Review Press. This book was released on 2019-11-11 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff is a woman caught up in extraordinary times. She has been hectored, vilified, persecuted and prosecuted for the grave offense of telling the truth about Mohammed and his "marriage" to a very young child as related in Islamic sacred literature. Her case has exposed the grave danger to freedom of speech (and thus, freedom of thought itself) in Europe. She fought bravely in the legal arena through the Austrian courts and on to the European Court of Human Rights to defend her freedom (and by extension the rights of all Europeans), to freely voice her opinion. She lost. In Europe, human rights are no longer thought to be intrinsic to the individual as a gift given by God, but are rather thought to be a gift of the state, which can be limited or revoked at will. This is a dangerous development and it could be coming to America. Her book serves as a warning call. It begins by relating her life's odyssey, living in a number of Muslim countries even as a young child. Her father served in the Austrian diplomatic corps. She was living in Iran when the Islamic Revolution broke out. Later, she too followed the path of diplomatic service and gained extensive experience working in the Muslim world. She was living in Kuwait when Saddam Hussein invaded. Elisabeth knows whereof she speaks. The second half of the book consists of expert analyses of her legal case by Robert Spencer, Clare M. Lopez, Stephen Coughlin, Grégor Puppinck, Christian Zeitz, Henrik R. Clausen, Christine Brim and Aaron Rhodes. These experts testify to the wrongness of the courts' repeated decisions and to the righteousness of her cause. Freedom of expression the basis for all freedom. There is no other freedom without it.
Download or read book The Truth Is Always Grey written by Frances Guerin and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Changing how we look at and think about the color grey Why did many of the twentieth century’s best-known abstract painters often choose grey, frequently considered a noncolor and devoid of meaning? Frances Guerin argues that painters (including Jasper Johns, Cy Twombly, Agnes Martin, Brice Marden, Mark Rothko, and Gerhard Richter) select grey to respond to a key question of modernist art: What is painting? By analyzing an array of modernist paintings, Guerin demonstrates that grey has a unique history and a legitimate identity as a color. She traces its use by painters as far back as medieval and Renaissance art, through Romanticism, to nineteenth- and twentieth-century modernism to show how grey is the perfect color to address the questions asked by painting within art history and to articulate the relationship between painting and the historical world of industrial modernity. A work of exceptional erudition, breadth, and clarity, presenting an impressive range of canonical paintings across centuries as examples, The Truth Is Always Grey is a treatise on color that allows us to see something entirely new in familiar paintings and encourages our appreciation for the innovation and dynamism of the color grey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful and gripping contemporary YA from the author of I'm Not Her that's "Just right for fans of Sarah Dessen and Jodi Picoult."—Booklist The truth is that Jess knows she screwed up. She's made mistakes, betrayed her best friend, and now she's paying for it. Her dad is making her spend the whole summer volunteering at the local soup kitchen. The truth is she wishes she was the care-free party-girl everyone thinks she is. She pretends it's all fine. That her "perfect" family is fine. But it's not. And no one notices the lie...until she meets Flynn. He's the only one who really sees her. The only one who listens. The truth is that Jess is falling apart – and no one seems to care. But Flynn is the definition of "the wrong side of the tracks." When Jess's parents look at him they only see the differences—not how much they need each other. They don't get that the person who shouldn't fit in your world... might just be the one to make you feel like you belong.

Download or read book The Truth Is a Lie The Complete Psychological and Motivational Journey to Personal Transformation Through Conscience Thought Relationshi written by Harry S. Petsanis and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-08 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Truth is a Lie will remove the blindfold that's crippled you for far too long and integrate real life situations to effectively demonstrate how these scenarios present themselves in all our lives. In The Wizard of Oz, Dorothy, the Cowardly Lion, the Scarecrow, and the Tin Man learn that the wizard behind the curtain is controlling all the myth and magic in Oz. The wizard does not want to be revealed. He wants to stay in control, and for the illusion of a perfect and harmonious world to continue. Follow my journey in The Truth is a Lie as I pull back the curtain and show that your Land of Oz is a place where your perception is not reality. Every day we live in conflict. We say that we want the curtain pulled back to reveal the truth, but our nature prefers to keep us in the dark, not allowing us to see who we truly are. In many instances, we simultaneously fear and despise the person we know is directly behind that lightly threaded fabric. We want nothing to do with the truth because the lie that we have been living for so long has become our reality. Imagine a wrecking ball destroying the infrastructure of all that we have been manipulated to believe. This Land of Oz was created by those in power: the government, educators, parents, and authority figures to control society and manipulate the minds of the less fortunate and powerless to create the illusion of a perfect world, and more importantly, protect the lives of those controlling us. Imagine a boxer, as soon as the bell rings, coming at you. He hits you with a haymaker to knock you off balance. As soon as we are born, our bell rings, and we are hit with the reality of the world that has already been created for us. The Land of Oz that has been created for you has your own wizard pulling the strings and brainwashing you to believe only what they want you to believe. People need to be shaken in a dramatic fashion to get them out of their conditioned apathy. We are so entrenched in the way we think that only a catastrophic event or soulfully truthful revelation can rewire the hardware. This conditioning has internally and emotionally tied us up in knots. We're afraid to reveal ourselves to people, afraid to speak out or to act in a way that truly reflects how we think and feel, and we're afraid to admit that at heart we are all self-serving and self-indulgent beings. Even Mother Teresa acknowledged that she felt guilty about how good it made her feel to help other people. This fear has been ingrained in us, causing us to lead the life that others demand of us, which was their intention from the beginning. Throughout our journey, my goal will be to get you to pull back the curtain in your Land of Oz and reveal your world as it really is, not as you and others have conditioned you to believe that it is.

Consumed by hate and rage, I spent four years running from my memories. Until a shattered woman gave me a reason to stop. Cora lived in a nightmare, but through sheer force of will, she'd turned it into something beautiful. She had a smile that could pierce the darkest soul. And with one glance, she shredded mine. Lie: I was only there for a fresh start. Lie: I had no idea what I was getting myself into. Lie: There was nothing I could do to save her, either. But that's the thing about lies-you never know who to believe.
