He's wild—a savage—and her only hope of staying alive. A hunter for his tribe in a merciless landscape, Perry views Aria as sheltered and fragile—everything he would expect from a Dweller.

In alternating chapters told in Aria's and Perry's voices, Under the Never Sky subtly and powerfully captures the evolving relationship between these characters and sweeps readers away to a harsh but often beautiful world.

Book excerpt: A schoolteacher still reeling from the tragedies of the Great War and the influenza epidemic travels to the Middle East in this memorable and passionate novel “Marvelous . . . a stirring story of personal awakening set against the background of a crucial moment in modern history.”—The Washington Post Agnes Shanklin, a forty-year-old schoolteacher from Ohio, has come into a modest inheritance that allows her to take the trip of a lifetime to Egypt and the Holy Land. Arriving at the Semiramis Hotel just as the 1921 Cairo Peace Conference convenes, she is freed for the first time from her mother’s withering influence and finds herself being wooed by a handsome, mysterious German. At the same time, Agnes—with her plainspoken American opinions—is drawn into the company of Winston Churchill, T. E. Lawrence, and Lady Gertrude Bell, who will, in the space of a few days, redraw the world map to create the modern Middle East. As they change history, Agnes too will find her own life transformed forever. With prose as graceful and effortless as a seductive float down the Nile, Mary Doria Russell illuminates the long, rich history of the Middle East with a story that brilliantly elucidates today’s headlines.

Download or read book The Dreamer written by Ursula Frank-Pegg and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2014-06-02 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most valuable of all dreams, which offers us a chance to avoid trouble, is almost as upsetting as the haunting version that finds us panting, scared, trying "to outrun danger." However, it is not fear we feel, but outrage. We feel a tremendous amount of desperation spilling over into the waking state. What we have dreamed is nothing we can brush off, explain away as another nightmare. The uneasy question remains, why we felt such over¬powering desperation and anger in a dream directed at a specific person, why we let it out in one large outcry of righteous indignation. We remember having been seized by a powerful surge of outrage. Completely unable to contain it, we made a spectacle of ourselves. We had a fit and did not give a hoot that we exploded right in front of someone who should impress us with his title, his knowledge, his “pious” demeanor, obviously with his status above ours. And here is the difference: the object of our outburst is identified. Somehow we didn't give a damn, who it is. We shouldn't have, for the person who is at the center of our agitation, is our adversary and, in some cases, possibly a deadly one. Our subconscious uses the dream route to give us a warning. We have exploded, let fly, for a good reason. Enough anger for two is boiling over, because of our own part in all this — if we were not so gullible, so ignorant, so besotted, all of this would not have happened. The detestable creature we are facing is at the bottom of our woes. With such a dream, our subconscious is trying to impress us with a most urgent message. It is attempting to wean us, to get us away from the influence of a person who is about to screw us — literally or symbolically so. Either way we will have to pay, if we don’t heed a most urgent message: our own outcry of indignation. If we are allowing it to happen. This guy is trying to finagle us into a business deal, and we go along, while our subconscious cries foul. This shady businessman has already lost his shirt, and he knows it, but we don't realize he is just trying to fleece a few more sheep. We are not aware what we are letting ourselves in for, but our subconscious has already shown us the dramatic results. It has done the screening for us. Unless we reverse course, take an alternate route, grind to a stop, this guy with his clean-cut exterior we have been hankering for, is going to give us the case of herpes we have eluded so far. The book "The Dreamer" is based on more than a 20 year period of recorded dreams and the way they affected me and my family. it makes a distinction between different types of dreams - many of them undoubtedly familiar to the reader. Through repetition as well as intuition I can share with the reader the outreach of precognitive dreams. reaching out into a distant future of ten to more years. Understanding our dreams can help and protect us. let this book inspire you to start a record of your dreams and gradually understand their message.

Download or read book The Dream Quest of Vellitt Boe written by Kij Johnson and published by Tordotcom. This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of NPR's Best Books of 2016 and a Hugo, Nebula, John W. Campbell, and Locus Award finalist for Best Novella Professor Vellitt Boe teaches at the prestigious Ulthar Women’s College. When one of her most gifted students elopes with a dreamer from the waking world, Vellitt must retrieve her. "Kij Johnson's haunting novella The Dream-Quest of Vellitt Boe is both a commentary on a classic H.P. Lovecraft tale and a profound reflection on a woman's life. Vellitt's quest to find a former student who may be the only person who can save her community takes her through a world governed by a seemingly arbitrary dream logic in which she occasionally glimpses an underlying but mysterious order, a world ruled by capricious gods and populated by the creatures of dreams and nightmares. Those familiar with Lovecraft's work will travel through a fantasy landscape infused with Lovecraftian images viewed from another perspective, but even readers unfamiliar with his work will be enthralled by Vellitt's quest. A remarkable accomplishment that repays rereading." —Pamela Sargent, winner of the Nebula Award At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Download or read book The Dreamer written by Qamrul A. Khanson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2005-10-28 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book titled "The Dreamer" is a successful attempt to study the evolution of dreams, its origin, its impact on human psyche and its detrimental effect on Dreamer's future course of life. The Dreams have been analysed by Messenger-Prophets of Almighty The-God, by Messengers' companions, scholars and many intellectuals in religious and non-religious communities until the present times. The process of Dream Delineation is very important and it would continue to amaze people who wish to reap the benefits from the correct Dreams. Such individuals would be ahead of many of their compatriots in materialism and spirituality. In this book "The Dreamer" the envisioned dreams have been categorised in different chapters to understand each and every kind of dreams individually by its nature, domain, background habitat and logic. Though main deliberations are from The Qur'an, Ahadiths, Atharats, conforming Biblical text but other scientific references have been sought to make this book widely beneficial for every section of life style without any prejudice to culture and religion. The inclusion of secular perceptions of Dreaming covers the non-religious desire to gain benefits from the endowed blessings of Almighty The-God. The overall scientific approach to Dreaming does not alter its divine importance but the secret knowledge from the dreams buds out to provide fragrance of life to each and every human born with this beautiful trait. By reading this book, people of different cultures and religions would blossom in the form of colourful foliage covering the scientific visions of Humankind. May Almighty make this book useful to all genuine Dreamers who seek His Almighty's Guidance for their betterment? So help us Almighty The-God (Ameen / A'men).
