To make matters worse, Merediths alcoholic brother Darien, who she hasnt seen in eighteen years comes to live with her, in hopes that she can save his life from his debilitating disease.

Download or read book Thistle Dew written by James Howard Trott and published by Oak and Yew Press. This book was released on 2015-10-17 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thistle Dew is the third volume of the selected, collected poetry of James Howard Trott. The first two volumes were published as Immanence ( 1967-1988 ) and Contingency ( 1989-2001 ). Further volumes of Trott's poetry with more specific aims are: Land, Light, Wind and Water (poetry of the plains) and Conceptions and images (pro-life poems). The poet is also editor of A Sacrifice of Praise: An Anthology of Christian Poetry in English from Caedmon to the mid-Twentieth Century (2nd ed., 2006) and author of several prose works. The Poems in Thistle Dew were written from 2002 to 2007. They fit no single genre, although "random," "obscure," and "oblique," are adjectives that come to mind. The subjects are from ordinary events, natural phenomena, and memories, merging in unlikely associations as in the metaphysical poetry he admires. These verses blend faith and inquiry seasoned with friendly scepticism toward commonplace assumption and the unexamined life. At the same time many of these poems are "light." Beginning with the title we have questions about how seriously the poet takes himself, or how seriously he expects us to take him. Yet as we read his poems, we find one word or image bearing three or four different loads - hinting the title means more than at first appears. The poet continues prolific, and says more collections are likely, though he himself is mildly surprised at the fact. Thus whatever it means, Thistle Dew does not indicate the poet feels he is finished!
Download or read book Promised Valley Conspiracy written by Ron Fritsch and published by Asymmetric Worlds. This book was released on 2012-12-04 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Promised Valley Conspiracy is the third novel in Ron Fritsch’s four-book prehistoric Promised Valley series. Fritsch continues to ask if history and civilization, which prehistory gave birth to, could’ve begun differently. US Review of Books: “There is a traditional, epic tone to the book that is reminiscent of Homer’s Iliad or Odyssey. It is a story whose firm, relentless action is the narrative drive of this novel. It fascinates with pages filled with excitement and drama. Fritsch’s world is one filled with wondrous surprises, where there are no damaging thoughts among the people toward same-sex unions. It’s refreshing to see the disappearance of negative cultural trappings found in today’s world.” Kirkus: Promised Valley Conspiracy “explores the ongoing conflict between the valley people, who are prosperous farmers occupying all the richest Promised Valley lands, and the hill people, who inhabit the sparser uplands and live bitterly, believing that their gods promised the valley and its comforts to them. Since the valley people have a similar belief about themselves, a state of dangerous friction exists between the two groups. Savage warfare and desperate diplomacy marked the well-orchestrated events of the first two books, and tensions continue to boil to the surface in this volume. These books continue to be an intelligent and involving look at the personal sacrifices of making war and keeping peace.” Reader Views: “The author’s creativity in writing a series such as this is to be admired. I noticed as the two different peoples learned to see similarities amongst their differences, it is the same in our world today. Lack of understanding of the beliefs of others creates a disconnection and fear among people. Learning to understand and respect the differences makes for a better world whether it is prehistoric or current. There are many valuable lessons to be learned in this story.” Feathered Quill: “I highly recommend the captivating and interesting Promised Valley series. Quill says: A thought-provoking tale of intrigue and ‘what ifs’ had life played out in Promised Valley fashion.”
