Download or read book Under the Mayday Tree written by James Grace and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2013-07-29 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about my awakening, my gift. I wrote it as a sort of outlet, a place to gather my thoughts and emotions and see them all in one place. It is by no means the end of my journey, only the beginning; the ending is mine to write based on an accumulation of moments. When I first wrote it, I was just going to put it on a shelf and use it as a page mark in my life but decided, after speaking with some beautiful people, to make it available to whomever might benefit from it. It’s just me and my perspective. There is no right way; there is only your way. My hope is that this book might help others and, if the time is right, maybe help begin their awakened adventure. Trust your journey and respect those who journey around you. Peace and much love.

Book excerpt: From the Booker Prize winner and national bestselling author, reflections on gardening, art, literature, and life Penelope Lively takes up her key themes of time and memory, and her lifelong passions for art, literature, and gardening in this philosophical and poetic memoir. From the courtyards of her childhood home in Cairo to a family cottage in Somerset, to her own gardens in Oxford and London, Lively conducts an expert tour, taking us from Eden to Sissinghurst and into her own backyard, traversing the lives of writers like Virginia Woolf and Philip Larkin while imparting her own sly and spare wisdom. "Her body of work proves that certain themes never go out of fashion," writes the New York Times Book Review, as true of this beautiful volume as of the rest of the Lively canon. Now in her eighty-fourth year, Lively muses, "To garden is to elide past, present, and future; it is a defiance of time."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is 1882 in a French-Canadian village south of Winnipeg, and Justine Bélanger has had her first taste of love at sixteen. After a stolen kiss in the churchyard with her handsome older cousin, Adrien Larence, she dreams of a future with him. But her hopes are dashed when he announces his plans to join the priesthood – one of the few ways for a French Catholic to get ahead in a largely English Protestant population. Although Adrien’s ambition and passions ultimately get him expelled from the seminary, his attempts to succeed in the English-dominated business community are blocked. That is, until he unexpectedly becomes partners with an unwed and pregnant Irish maid who starts up a business in the flourishing brothels of Winnipeg. While Adrien follows his own course, Justine finds love and builds her own life as wife, mother, and teacher. Yet Adrien’s path is destined to crisscross her own, and ultimately, her feelings for him force her to make a choice that could affect the rest of her life. Set against the historical backdrop of Louis Riel and the Saskatchewan Rebellion and a time when French Manitobans found their language, education, and faith endangered and eroded, Spoiled Heritage – The Manitobans brings to life the details of the rich culture, close-knit family life, and day-to-day living of a courageous minority population that faced injustices and a threat to their religious and language rights.

As her father’s men and her devoted bodyguard scour the woods to find her, she wonders if staying in the arms of her abductor is the safer place to be. At least, that’s what her heart is saying — her head is saying run… There’s nothing magical about growing up in a mountainside castle when it’s your prison. Kaya’s ruthless and powerful father keeps her under lock and key, guarded and watched every second of the day, and Kaya’s not really sure why. She’s just a normal girl. No one special. She doesn’t understand her father’s obsession with her safety – until she is kidnapped. Dragged through a brutal wilderness, Kaya’s captor forces her to face a most devastating truth, and even though he has dark secrets of his own, she is inexplicably drawn to him. With powerful forces bearing down on Kaya and her freedom, her survival becomes an epic journey of self-discovery and life-or-death love. When the stars are in your eyes, sometimes the line between right and wrong is blurred. Passion obliterates common sense. Love... makes you reckless. Dangerously passionate and darkly romantic, SERENADE is a page-turning thriller and seductive love story.
