Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book that unfolds the history of the world’s first black republic through the art of poetry. Yes, the first black republic on Earth started in the Americas! Beautiful Agony is a collection of poetic snapshots of the heroes and heroines who made Haiti possible as a nation and trekked the eternal struggle to keep Haiti’s freedom soul. Do you love poetry? Do you love wordplay? Do you love sophisticated prose? Then Beautiful Agony: Visionaries and Freedom Fighters in Haitian History is for you. These poems serve a double mission: personal pleasure and historical recognition of people and a land and the impressive odds against its existence and the triumphant glow of its survival. When Haiti came into existence, the fight was an extremely difficult one, and Haiti’s enemies were the world’s greatest powers at that time. The improbable but hard-won victory of the slaves against France’s powerful Napoleon and his cohorts was an extraordinary achievement for my little island. This book is for everyone who loves freedom, whether poet lovers, teachers, social workers, ministers, scholars, activists, lawyers, politicians, musicians, psychologists, youth, or parents. It will give you hope that nothing is impossible after witnessing the experience of the improbable hunger and spirit of those who were forced into existence a new nation of former slaves and free blacks. Beautiful Agony is a testament to the creative will and humanity of Haiti’s freedom and agony.

Book Agony of Dal Lake

Download or read book Agony of Dal Lake written by Maharaj Kaul and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-02-15 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kashmir has been on the mind of Maharaj Kaul ever since the eruption of the civil war there in 1989, and it has been in his mind since his childhood, as he was born there. For him Kashmir is more than his birthplace, it is an irrigator of his consciousness. The author of the books The Light Through The Woods: Dreams Of Survival Of Human Soul In The Age Of Technology and Inclinations And Reality: The Search For The Absolute published last year examines the ongoing civil war in Kashmir over the last two decades that has wounded both the Kashmiri Muslims and Pandits in the spheres of personal, economic, social, and political lives and it has rendered the latter into refugees in their own nation, exiled from their home of 5,000 years. Thousands of Kashmiris have died, a lot more wounded; but the end is not even in sight. The soul of Kashmir is under pressure. The book explores the causes and history of Kashmir Problem and what its solution should be. It also celebrates some of its outstanding people and provides vignettes of some of its popular places, culture, life, and mystifying natural beauty. It is both a mourning over the tragedy of Kashmir and a celebration of its spiritual essence.

  • Author : Phyllis Reynolds Naylor
  • Publisher : Simon and Schuster
  • Release : 2012-05-15
  • ISBN : 144246576X
  • Pages : 133 pages

Download or read book The Agony of Alice written by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-05-15 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life, Alice McKinley feels, is just one big embarrassment. Here she is, about to be a teenager and she doesn't know how. It's worse for her than for anyone else, she believes, because she has no role model. Her mother has been dead for years. Help and advice can only come from her father, manager of a music store, and her nineteen-year-old brother, who is a slob. What do they know about being a teen age girl? What she needs, Alice decides, is a gorgeous woman who does everything right, as a roadmap, so to speak. If only she finds herself, when school begins, in the classroom of the beautiful sixth-grade teacher, Miss Cole, her troubles will be over. Unfortunately, she draws the homely, pear-shaped Mrs. Plotkin. One of Mrs. Plotkin's first assignments is for each member of the class to keep a journal of their thoughts and feelings. Alice calls hers "The Agony of Alice," and in it she records all the embarrassing things that happen to her. Through the school year, Alice has lots to record. She also comes to know the lovely Miss Cole, as well as Mrs. Plotkin. And she meets an aunt and a female cousin whom she has not really known before. Out of all this, to her amazement, comes a role model -- one that she would never have accepted before she made a few very important discoveries on her own, things no roadmap could have shown her. Alice moves on, ready to be a wise teenager.
