Book excerpt: Alice MacDonneaugh, visiting Cullcriag Castle, her family's ancestral home in the Scottish moors to recover from the shock of the fire that claimed her parent's lives, fears she is losing her mind. For everywhere she goes, she is beset by visions and voices...beckoning...warning...threatening ... luring...voices out of time that call from musty graves and sing softly to the music of flutes and pipes...And visions of Morag - the lady in the tapestry - whom everyone says is Alice's look-alike, though she has been dead for over 300 years. Morag, the witch, Morag, once Mistress of Cullcraig; Morag, whose magnificent ruby gem holds the secrets of the past and the salvation of the future; Morag whose hand reaches out from the grave and the tapestry, trying to defy time and space and pull Alice back through the centuries, back past the grave, so she alone might learn the secret of the MacDonneaugh clan!

Book Voices of Time

Download or read book Voices of Time written by Eduardo Galeano and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A striking mosaic of memories, observations, and legends that together reveal the author's own story and a grand, compassionate vision of life itself In this kaleidoscope of reflections, renowned South American author Eduardo Galeano ranges widely, from childhood to love, music, plants, fear, indignity, and indignation. In the signal style of his bestselling and much-admired Memory of Fire trilogy—brief fragments that build steadily into an organic whole—Galeano offers a rich, wry history of his life and times that is both calmly philosophical and fiercely political. Beginning with blue algae, the earliest of life forms, these 333 vignettes alight on the Galeano family's immigration to Uruguay in the early twentieth century, the fate of love letters intercepted by a military dictatorship, abuses by the rich and powerful, the latest military outrages, and the author's own encounters with all manner of living matter, including generals, bums, dissidents, soccer stars, ducks, and trees. Out of these meditations emerges neither anger nor bitterness, but a celebration of a blessed life in a harsh world. Poetic and passionate, scathing and lyrical, delivered with Galeano's inimitable mix of gentle comedy and fierce moral judgment, Voices of Time is a deeply personal statement from a great and beloved writer.

Download or read book Voices Out of Lockdown written by Jan Sutch Pickard and published by Wild Goose Publications. This book was released on 2020-07-29 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown in spring 2020, many people turned to writing: diaries, letters, cards, poems. Human words, sent out across the void of our isolation, shouted into the storm over which we had no control. What we could do was communicate with each other, raise our voices against the silence of separation, argue with our own doubts, call out to God, express our fragile hope. Here are the voices of just a few - members and associates of the Iona Community - with poems, psalms, songs, affirmations of faith and prayers written during a full and fraught ten weeks. We offer these human words believing that when the darkness seems overwhelming, light dawns; that into the silence of our worst fears God speaks a living Word.

Book excerpt: In the #1 New York Times bestselling tradition of Communion, Whitely Strieber returns with a terrifying novel of alien occupation We are not alone. Millions of people are confronting aliens that authorities say do not exist. Meet the Three Thieves, a group of Grays assigned to duty in a small Kentucky town. They have been preparing a child for generations. Innocent Conner Callaghan will face the ultimate terror as he struggles to understand who he has been bred to be, and what he must do to save humanity. Colonel Michael Morax strives to keep the secret of the Grays from the public for reasons so sinister, yet believable, that they read like truth. And Lauren Glass, government "empath" to the last surviving captive Gray, known only as B for Bob, has a unique ability to communicate with this captive Gray. But when B for Bob suddenly escapes the highly secure underground Air Force facility that he's been captive in for years, a frantic race begins, as the government must outmaneuver the Grays to keep the secret of their presence intact. The Grays is a mind-bending journey behind the curtain of secrecy that surrounds the subject of aliens, written by the field's great master, Whitley Strieber. If you've never so much as thought about the subject before, this book will make you think deeply, not only about the mystery of who the Grays are, but who exactly we are.

Book Voices Out of Africa in Twentieth century Spanish Caribbean Literature

Download or read book Voices Out of Africa in Twentieth century Spanish Caribbean Literature written by Julia Cuervo Hewitt and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hewitt (Spanish and Portuguese, Pennsylvania State U.) explores the representation of Africa and "Afro-Caribbean-ness" in Spanish Caribbean literature of the 20th century. Her main argument "is that the literary representation of Africa and "Africanness," meaning practices, belief systems, music, art, myths, popular knowledge, in Spanish-speaking Caribbean societies, constructs a self-referential discourse in which Africa and African "things" shift to a Caribbean landscape as the site of the (M)Other." Or, in other words, these representations imaginatively rescue and simultaneously construct a "Caribbean cultural imaginary conceived as the Other within that associates Africa with a cultural womb." Among the texts she explores are Fernando Ortiz's interpretations of the "Black Carnival" in Cuba, the early Afro-Cuban poems of Alejo Carpentier, the Afro-Cuban stories of Lydia Cabrera, a number of literary representations of the figure of the runaway slave, and two works by Puerto Rican novelist Edgardo Rodiguez Julia.

Book Finding Voice

    Book Details:
  • Author : William B. Kincaid
  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2012-11-30
  • ISBN : 1610976940
  • Pages : 201 pages

Download or read book Finding Voice written by William B. Kincaid and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2012-11-30 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Finding Voice, Kincaid employs an often used but somewhat elusive metaphor, "voice," as a way of speaking of pastoral identity and contends that a lively, imaginative pastoral voice emerges from a thorough grasp of context, theology, pastoral roles, personal journey, and systemic dynamics. Designed as a text for the field education, contextual education, and supervised ministry experiences of seminary students and others preparing for congregational leadership, Finding Voice examines in depth how people are experiencing each of these constituent parts of pastoral voice at their student ministry sites not only to learn about each of the areas, but also to recognize and understand what is being called forth in the students as they engage these five key experiences and begin to visualize their future ministry. The book further explores the opportunities created when the five aspects of pastoral identity are in conflict with one another. In the absence of any one of these or the imbalance of them, pastoral voice gets skewed, and vibrant, effective ministry is undermined. Finding Voice urges students to begin now, with field education, to engage a practice of ministry that is imaginative, courageous, nimble, and faithful.
