Download or read book The Seabird s Cry written by Adam Nicolson and published by Henry Holt and Company. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life itself could never have been sustainable without seabirds. As Adam Nicolson writes: "They are bringers of fertility, the deliverers of life from ocean to land." A global tragedy is unfolding. Even as we are coming to understand them, the number of seabirds on our planet is in freefall, dropping by nearly 70% in the last sixty years, a billion fewer now than there were in 1950. Of the ten birds in this book, seven are in decline, at least in part of their range. Extinction stalks the ocean and there is a danger that the grand cry of the seabird colony, rolling around the bays and headlands of high latitudes, will this century become little but a memory. Seabirds have always entranced the human imagination and NYT best-selling author Adam Nicolson has been in love with them all his life: for their mastery of wind and ocean, their aerial beauty and the unmatched wildness of the coasts and islands where every summer they return to breed. The seabird’s cry comes from an elemental layer in the story of the world. Over the last couple of decades, modern science has begun to understand their epic voyages, their astonishing abilities to navigate for tens of thousands of miles on featureless seas, their ability to smell their way towards fish and home. Only the poets in the past would have thought of seabirds as creatures riding the ripples and currents of the entire planet, but that is what the scientists are seeing now today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An international cult classic and a New York Times Notable Book of the Year, The Crying Heart Tattoo follows the unlikely romance between a young man and a woman more than twice his age. Beginning their relationship when Sonny is just fourteen and Felicity thirty-four, the couple share a poignant history together that ends only upon Felicity's passing -- despite four marriages, numerous obstacles, and enough misadventures to challenge the most loyal of lovers. At once heartbreaking and euphoric, their story mirrors the tale that Felicity has passed down to Sonny, a story uncanny in its similarity to their own: when a prehistoric outcast locates her former tribe, she falls in love with a young boy. A masterful novel first published a quarter of a century ago, The Crying Heart Tattoo keeps the impossible within reach, proving once and for all that the struggle for true love is worth everything.

Book excerpt: INKABA YAKHO IPHI? (WHERE IS YOUR NAVEL?) Three storiesthose of the Xhosa and the Khoikhoi tribes, the British soldiers and the settlers, and the burghers and the Boersare told in parallel. Her Khoikhoi mother, had named her Coti after the wife of Cagn, the supreme god of the San people. Her skin shone like gold, the skin of the San. He had been watching as she bathed in the lagoon, blinded by her sleek beauty as she stepped out. The fading sunlight on the water drops covered her golden skin like jewels. Coti gasped when she saw him. He was Tshane, great-great-grandson of a Xhosa chief and named after one of the first Rharhabe Xhosa kings or paramount (supreme) chiefs. His mother was from the Gcaleka Xhosa clan. Tshane represented the amaXhosa, the fierce people of Xhosa. He was magnificent as he stood still and talla warrior, black as ebony; his toned muscles rippled. He was nervous. She was not afraid of him. She prayed now to the wise and powerful Tsui-Goab, the Khoi supreme god, to protect her from Guanab, the cunning god of evil. Her grandmother had warned that this was an evil love, brought about by the trickster god, Haitsa-Aibib. Haitsa-Aibib could change his form at will. Was he the fish eagle that had thrown the cloud over her? Lt. Ian Bentley sat his horse on a hill overlooking the coastal foothills of the Amatola Mountains. From his position, he had a good view of the sea and also the Xhosa village below him. It was baking hot under the African sun, and he looked forward to the cool evening. He sweated in his thick red tunic, made for cooler climates, and his horse fidgeted from the flies. Taking his eyeglass from his tunic, he focused on the village below. Conraad du Randt, the burghers leader, raised his arm for silence. Yes, my people. First, they free the slaves and tell us to pay them. Now they have equality before the law? These heathens are our subordinates, damned in the eyes of God! Given to us to teach them Christian ways! Our land! Our lifestyle! Is God-given and earned by conquest!

Book The Crying Book

Download or read book The Crying Book written by Heather Christle and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bestselling "lyrical, moving book: part essay, part memoir, part surprising cultural study" is an examination of why we cry, how we cry, and what it means to cry from a woman on the cusp of motherhood confronting her own depression (The New York Times Book Review). Heather Christle has just lost a dear friend to suicide and now must reckon with her own depression and the birth of her first child. As she faces her grief and impending parenthood, she decides to research the act of crying: what it is and why people do it, even if they rarely talk about it. Along the way, she discovers an artist who designed a frozen–tear–shooting gun and a moth that feeds on the tears of other animals. She researches tear–collecting devices (lachrymatories) and explores the role white women’s tears play in racist violence. Honest, intelligent, rapturous, and surprising, Christle’s investigations look through a mosaic of science, history, and her own lived experience to find new ways of understanding life, loss, and mental illness. The Crying Book is a deeply personal tribute to the fascinating strangeness of tears and the unexpected resilience of joy.

Book The Cry of The Oppressed People

Download or read book The Cry of The Oppressed People written by Abu Taleb and published by Booksclinic Publishing. This book was released on 2023-03-13 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is my great pleasure to present to you all my fellow poets as well as my readers, the third volume of my poetry collection ‘Artanaad’ (The Cry of the Oppressed People) after the first one ‘Xarbahara’ (Proletariat) and second volume called ‘Bedona’ (Pain). As a poet, I have always believed that words have the power to touch people's hearts and souls in a way that nothing else can. With each poem that I write, I strive to capture the present trend of betrayal and complexity of the power which is trying to instill Hindu nationalism by spreading the venom of communal disharmony among Hindu-Muslim as well as in the name of Mandir –Masjid, also by abusing the nation’s constitution. The proletariat class of the country is also experiencing the present governments’ indifference towards their sufferings, emotions and expectations.

Download or read book The Cry written by Keith Hudson and published by Destiny Image Publishers. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "My heartfelt thanks to my wife, Mary Hudson, for putting this book together. And to my daughter Katy Perry, whose voice is created to worship." — Keith Hudson Ignite the Fire Within! What is the difference between a cry and an ordinary prayer? A cry is not a passive whisper-it is a war-like shout to an Almighty God! The Cry will ignite a new fire within you-it will rekindle your passion for God. By stripping away the polish and veneer of outward religion and exposing the authentic cry of your heart, God will move in ways you never thought possible. The church has lost its cry, but God is about to restore it. Why did the people gathered for the Azusa Street revival experience such a powerful move of the spirit of God? They had a cry in their hearts and in their prayers. The Cry will: Release a desperate longing for God's intervention in your life. Go way beyond your natural thinking into a spiritual hunger from your innermost being. Touch the heart of God. Release angelic hosts to work on your behalf. Turn your heart toward God. I really want to be there in the courtyards of the Always-Present One. My whole being shouts for joy to the living God! (Psalm 84:2 PEB)
