Download or read book What s the Bloody Point of it All written by Chris West and published by CWTK. This book was released on 2021-03-19 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘To thine own self be true!’ These words light up the imagination of previously quiet student Stella Tranter in conformist mid-1970s London. Throwing herself into a study of the arts and philosophy, she embarks on a quest to find out exactly what they mean. She reads Nietzsche. She gets into punk. She falls in love. None of these works out quite as expected, however… Maybe what she really wants is just to be grown-up… She settles down in pleasant, tree-lined Dulwich with unimaginative but well-meaning Bobby. Is this really her? Her discontent begins to grow. The opportunity for escape presents itself. It proves irresistible – but costly. Freedom, she discovers, can be lonely and terrifying. It can destroy as well as liberate. This is a snappily written, witty but also serious 40,000 word novella about culture, ideas, love, music (punk and Mozart), making choices, and the fact that authenticity is not an easy option. "Clever, intriguing," said prizewinning novelist Dame Beryl Bainbridge about this book, adding, "Stella is an excellent voice."

Download or read book White Supremacy written by Kelly Roberts and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the beginning of time there has been a battle between good and evil. Evil has manifested itself in many ways throughout history but its goal has always been the same - to consume as many souls as possible. For some, evil is a way of life, embraced in a way that shocks and terrifies. It has been said that the only thing needed for evil to triumph is for good men to sit back and do nothing. For some, this is not an option. This book is the true-life story of one man who sets out on a mission to destroy the footholds of evil within his community. You will walk step-by-step through the entire suspenseful journey. What starts as a plan to gather information soon turns into a long complex spiral into the dark world of white supremacy. Defined as domestic terrorism, these groups walk a fine-line, hell bent on the ultimate destruction of anything "non-white or pure." Domestic terrorist groups, like their bigger brother, always use a key strategy in their twisted ambition - fear. Through reading this book, you will learn that fear is a tool of evil. This tool will only work if it allowed to by its intended victim. Understanding this principal, along with the learning of your enemy's weaknesses, will lead to victory over the oppression of evil. While some very serious risks, including death, existed for this man and his mission, faith in God was his one strength to overcome fear. God will always triumph. This book is one such story of triumph and success. It is also a learning tool for others to defend their peaceful way of life.

Many sent their husbands and sons to fight for the glory of the South. However, as the war progressed, their sacrifices became harder and harder to bear. They faced shortages of food, struggled to find adequate housing, and, in some cases, endured the ultimate price of losing husbands, sons, and close relatives.

Download or read book About cats written by Nicolae Sfetcu and published by Nicolae Sfetcu. This book was released on 2014-04-29 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide for the cat lovers about the cat behavior, cat attractants, cat breeds, cat health and food, type of cats, cats as pets, fictional cats, films about cats, historical cats. A book full with pictures of the most important cat breeds, tips and advice for cat behavior, cat diseases and how to take care of the cats. The cat, also called the domestic cat or house cat, is a small feline carnivorous mammal of the subspecies Felis silvestris catus. Its most immediate pre-domestication ancestor is the African wild cat, Felis silvestris lybica. The cat has been living in close association with humans for at least 3,500 years; the Ancient Egyptians routinely used cats to keep mice and other rodents (mostly rats) away from their grain (and also believed that cats were sacred to the goddess Bastet). The history of the domestic cat may stretch back even further, as 8,000-year-old bones of humans and cats were found buried together on the island of Cyprus.

Download or read book Clean written by Scott-Patrick Mitchell and published by Upswell. This book was released on 2022-03-01 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our lucent teeth spark the rainbow dark. Here, we do not use words like love. Instead, we speak with hands that hold as shoulders tussle the roughhouse rougher. In the absence of daylight, we are just two young men, silent save for giggle and shoe scuff: we do not rouse suspicion when touching. from 'Night Orchids' — In this volume, Scott-Patrick Mitchell propels us into the seething mess of the methamphetamine crisis in Australia today. These poems roil and scratch, exploring the precarious life of addiction and its sleep deprivation. From an unsteady and unsavoury life, we are released into the joy of a recovery made through sheer hard work. Even in the disintegration, the poet points us towards love and carries tenderness every day in memory. Scott-Patrick Mitchell's decades of spoken- word practice has enabled a fine tuning on the page when, for so many readers, we enter into an alien zone of unknowing. Shortlisted in the Victorian Premier's Literary Awards 2023 and the Best Book category in the Western Australian Premier's Book Awards 2023.

Download or read book Claudian the Poet written by Clare Coombe and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive reassessment of the carmina maiora of the fourth-century poet Claudian contributes to the growing trend to recognize that Late Antique poets should be approached as just that: poets. Its methodology is developed from that of Michael Roberts' seminal The Jeweled Style. It analyzes Claudian's poetics and use of story telling to argue that the creation of a story world in which Stilicho, his patron, becomes an epic hero, and the barbarians are giants threatening both the borders of Rome and the order of the very universe is designed to convince his audience of a world-view in which it is only the Roman general who stands between them and cosmic chaos. The book also argues that Claudian uses the same techniques to promote the message that Honorius, young hero though he may seem, is not yet fit to rule, and that Stilicho's rightful position remains as his regent.
