Book excerpt: The Weeping Love: A New Creation After the Storm entails a stimulating romance accounts that depict some sad events that often plague love regime and provoke unconscious disintegration in marital union. The book attempts to present love as an original instrument whose power works spiritually based on nature over which the human mind, heart, and soul have no absolute control. It essentially argues that the natural price for love is love, and not luxuries and other influential elements, including money, power, as is considered by many persons as precondition for sustainable marital union. The book equates love to truth that is never susceptible to falsehood. It presents the fact that love, like the sky, which is often defaced by dark cloud, has its unavoidable share of temptation, frustration, and other vices. It maintains that sustained love, like long-lasting peace, is the end result of social turbulence and conflict.

Like gold, it is has its own processing fire, including temptation, disappointment, as well as frustration. Indeed, marriage tested by these factors often enjoys endurance and blessings. Contained potentially with literary exposition, the book is also annexed by captivating poems and some philosophical expressions that are useful for daily guide.

And Lochmordra, the Legendary Beast, is rising at random and swallowing ships whole.

But Runa’s nemesis has also been called to the Sea, and he’s brought apprentices of his own. When the not-so-friendly competition between them grows fierce, it’s Barclay—the only one from the Elsewheres—who can’t seem to keep up.

If the rival groups can’t cast aside old grudges and learn to work together, soon the Sea will be destroyed completely. And all the while Barclay must ask himself: is there truly a place for him in the Wilderlands?
Download or read book Death Without Weeping written by Nancy Scheper-Hughes and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When lives are dominated by hunger, what becomes of love? When assaulted by daily acts of violence and untimely death, what happens to trust? Set in the lands of Northeast Brazil, this is an account of the everyday experience of scarcity, sickness and death that centres on the lives of the women and children of a hillside "favela". Bringing her readers to the impoverished slopes above the modern plantation town of Bom Jesus de Mata, where she has worked on and off for 25 years, Nancy Scheper-Hughes follows three generations of shantytown women as they struggle to survive through hard work, cunning and triage. It is a story of class relations told at the most basic level of bodies, emotions, desires and needs. Most disturbing - and controversial - is her finding that mother love, as conventionally understood, is something of a bourgeois myth, a luxury for those who can reasonably expect, as these women cannot, that their infants will live.
