Yet in both, catastrophic disaster awaits him . may even be caused by him.Enter the Circle--an adrenaline-laced epic where dreams and reality collide. Where two worlds are on the brink of destruction with one unthinkable solution. This review is for the Kindle version only! The books are great, this graphic novel is great. That being said, it is definitely not formatted for Kindle very well, or any Kindle app. I have the Kindle app on my Galaxy Nexus Android smart phone, my iPad 2, and on my computer. On each of my devices the pictures were extremely small, where it was almost impossible to read the words. The actual animation was easily visible but the words were way to small to read without any eye-strain. This wouldnt have been an issue if there were some sort of zoom function in the Kindle app it self, but there is not. On the iPad I was able to double tap the pictures and they would pop out where you are able to zoom in but when I did that the comic cells became pixelated and even more difficult to read.I have read the Circle Series about 4 times now (which I definitely suggest above the graphic novel, Ted Dekkers ability to create images with simple words is incredible and almost seems more vivid than actual pictures). I purchased the graphic novel because after reading the books so many times now and putting my own faces with the characters I wanted to know how Ted envisioned them and see if I liked them better than my imagination (some of them I do). I bought it for the pictures, so in all honesty I got what I wanted. For those of you who want the story and the pictures, get a hard copy somewhere.

I had always wanted to be a novelist and finally got around to being serious about it when I moved to London to do a master’s degree in creative writing in 2008. In terms of the idea for the book, my grand- mother, who died really quickly after I moved to London, was a very complicated person. Nick is definitely not her, but my grandmother partially inspired the character—the idea of someone complicated who can at once be glamorous and lovely to one person and be totally suppressive to someone else. What attracted you to writing about these three decades, starting in the forties, right after the Second World War, and ending in the late sixties, before you were born? In a lot of ways, it was this idea of people trying to be individuals post–World War II, when you were not really supposed to be individ- ualistic. The world was supposed to have been made whole—everyone was better and put on a happy face.

    THE RED ROOM H.G. Wells Gothic Digital Series @ UFSC FREE FOR EDUCATION The Red Room H.G. Wells (March 1896, The Idler) “I CAN assure you,” said I, “that it will take a very tangible ghost to frighten me.” And I stood up before the fire with my glass in my hand. “It is your own choosing,” said the man with the withered arm, and glanced at me askance. “Eight-and-twenty years,” said I, “I have lived, and never a ghost have I seen as yet.” The old woman sat staring hard into the fire, her pale eyes wide open. “Ay,” she broke in; “and eight-and-twenty years you have lived and never seen the likes of this house, I reckon. There’s a many things to see, when one’s still but eight-and-twenty.” She swayed her head slowly from side to side. “A many things to see and sorrow for.” I half suspected the old people were trying to enhance the spiritual terrors of their house by their droning insistence. I put down my empty glass on the table and looked about the room, and caught a glimpse of myself, abbreviated and broadened to an impossible sturdiness, in the queer old mirror at the end of the room. “Well,” I said, “if I see anything tonight, I shall be so much the wiser. For I come to the business with an open mind.” “It’s your own choosing,” said the man with the withered arm once more. I heard the faint sound of a stick and a shambling step on the flags in the passage outside.

    The Trouble With Paradise: Exploring Communities of Difference in Three American Novels by Blair Nosan The Trouble With Paradise: Exploring Communities of Difference in Three American Novels by Blair Nosan A thesis presented for the B. A. degree with Honors in The Department of English University of Michigan Spring 2008 © March 17, 2008 Blair Elizabeth Nosan Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my advisor, Anne Herrmann, for her discerning eye and her vital input throughout this writing process. Scotti Parrish for her encouragement and willingness to devote time and concern to the entire thesis cohort. Her support has been indispensable. And Megan Sweeney for her inspiration, and her suggestion of resources—including two of the three novels I have analyzed as primary sources. I am indebted to Eileen Pollack, who was willing to meet with me and provide a personal interview, which was central to my analysis of her work. I have also benefited from the support of my roommates, Peter Schottenfels, Jacob Nathan, and Anna Bernstein, who have provided me with a respite, which was often greatly needed. To my friend Claire Smith who edited this essay in its entirety, and to Nicole Cohen, the 2008 honors cohort, and my sister Loren: these individuals devoted their time and effort to my project and I am very grateful. Finally, I want to thank my family, who not only supported my decision to remain at university for an extra year in order to pursue this very thesis, but also for providing me with emotional guidance throughout this rollercoaster of an experience.

  • Black Novel’ and Women As Borderland Identities Nicoletta Vallorani Doi
    Speaking Bodies The ‘Black Novel’ and Women as Borderland Identities Nicoletta Vallorani doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.7359/826-2017-vall Abstract Analysing the main female characters in two contemporary novels (Derek Ray- mond’s I Was Dora Suarez 1990 and Chris Abani’s Becoming Abigail 2006), I would propose a reflection on the female violated body showing how it is posited at the intersection between two combined influences: the consideration of the female body as a commodity undergoing the dynamics of economic exchange quite typi- cal of a consumer society and the exploitation of this very body as a tool to com- municate when any other language is made unavailable. It is my position that these influences are interlaced and often function together in some contemporary narratives. Though profoundly different and far apart in several respects, I Was Dora Suarez and Becoming Abigail provide two effective examples of how the female body may work as a hieroglyph handed to the reader so as to develop new cognitive paths for the interpretation of the woman’s role in the community. Keywords: alien body, commodity, female body, semiosis. 1. Shades, or the female body on the crossover In 2000, Eric Gans writes an essay basically devoted to punk aesthetics and the practice of piercing and explains how a ritual born as a highly provocative rebellion against ordinary ethics soon becomes an “exemplary case of the post-modern market society’s drive to generate significance” (Gans 2000, 164). In my work here, I would like to relate Gans’s reflec- tion – declined in several ways in Tobin Siebers’s volume hosting the essay – to Grosz’s very familiar position on the female body in Western society (1995, 30-35).

  • Chinese Funeral Traditions the Rules Around Death Are Very Important To
    Chinese Funeral Traditions The rules around death are very important to all members of Chinese society. Special attention is paid to the care of the dead and very specific rules are followed. It is widely believed that bad luck will come to the family that does not honor the rules. In Chinese culture, traditions can vary depending on the deceased’s role in the family, their age, the manner of death, and their position in society. Care for one’s parents is complete and without question, so when a parent or elder dies, funeral planning falls to the eldest son and his children. A parent may not perform funeral planning for their child, so an unmarried person is taken to a funeral home upon death. Chinese rules also say that an older person must not show formal respect to a younger person. A child is therefore buried in silence and no funeral ceremonies are performed. Funeral traditions differ throughout China. Some Chinese people follow Christian beliefs and burial traditions. In Mainland China, there is land available for cemeteries, so Christian burials take place. Some Chinese people believe in the teachings of Buddha. In Hong Kong, the Buddhist practice of cremation is encouraged because the land there is needed for farming. Chinese Christians Many Chinese Christians believe a person’s body should be at home at the time of death. Often, a person who is dying in a hospital will be brought home to die peacefully, surrounded by loving family members and friends. When a death occurs, the family will immediately remove any mirrors from the home.

  • Five Facets of the Pentagon in the Convent of Toni Morrison's Paradise
    International Journal on Studies in English Language and Literature (IJSELL) Volume 4, Issue 3, March 2016, PP 1-9 ISSN 2347-3126 (Print) & ISSN 2347-3134 (Online) www.arcjournals.org Five Facets of the Pentagon in the Convent of Toni Morrison’s Paradise R.M.Prabha Ph.D. Scholar ManonmaniamSundaranar University Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu [email protected] Abstract: Paradise is Toni Morrison’s seventh novel and is published in the year 1997. The structure of the novel is complex involving many characters in the historical background of Afro-American black people. The novel describes the story of a black community in 1990s in Oklahoma. The novel also discusses the way in which the community built and lived in a town called Ruby. The town was near a convent, in which five women lived together. They were happy and free from any form of oppression from the community. The novel Paradise is all about the story of the dispute between these two communities. The five women of the convent are different from each other and reach the convent for diverse reasons. The women differ from each other in their thought, deed and actions. Analysis of their personality reveals their varied nature and interestingly their traits match well with the five different types of the ‘Five Factor Model of Personality traits’ of human beings. This paper analyses the personality of these five women and discusses the unique way in which Toni Morrison has crafted these characters in such a way that it fits unerringly with the five common traits of the Personality model of human beings.

  • COMING LATE OCTOBER 2019 Karen White's First Holiday Novel, the CHRISTMAS SPIRITS on TRADD STREET
    COMING LATE OCTOBER 2019 Karen White’s First Holiday Novel, THE CHRISTMAS SPIRITS ON TRADD STREET “Karen White is a queen of atmospheric Southern fiction, and nowhere is that more apparent than in her Tradd Street series.”—Bustle Dear Colleague, A long-anticipated gift to her fans, this holiday season Karen White will release her first ever Christmas novel: the newest installment in her beloved Charleston-set Tradd Street series, THE CHRISTMAS SPIRITS ON TRADD STREET (Berkley Hardcover; October 22, 2019). Two years after The Guests on South Battery became a New York Times hardcover bestseller, the quirky, doughnut-loving, schedule-obsessed heroine Melanie Trenholm returns. Finally married to true-crime bestselling author Jack Trenholm, they are living in Melanie’s historic home with their 18-month old twins and Jack’s fifteen-year-old daughter. But domestic bliss can’t last for long. A new passel of spirits have also taken up residence at Fifty-Five Tradd, and they need Melanie’s help to right old wrongs and solve a mystery. Masterfully blending women’s fiction, romance, mystery, and historical fiction, THE CHRISTMAS SPIRITS ON TRADD STREET finds Melanie once again forced to confront the hidden secrets of her city and its residents who came before. And it’s also the first installment in the series centered around Charleston during the American Revolution. White, a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution, was inspired to explore this time period by the recent discovery that she had several ancestors in the Carolinas (including Charleston) who fought during the Revolution: a fascinating, thrilling, and terrifying time to be alive in the colonies.
