I have officially read this only about, OH, a MILLION times. “Fuck me and the rest of the world, I was in love.” And Echo has to ask herself just how far they can push the limits and what she'll risk for the one guy who might teach her how to love again. Yet the crazy attraction between them refuses to go away. And with the secrets they both keep, being together is pretty much impossible. All she knows is that she wants everything to go back to normal. But when Noah Hutchins, the smoking-hot, girl-using loner in the black leather jacket, explodes into her life with his tough attitude and surprising understanding, Echo's world shifts in ways she could never have imagined. Even Echo can't remember the whole truth of that horrible night. No one knows what happened the night Echo Emerson went from popular girl with jock boyfriend to gossiped-about outsider with "freaky" scars on her arms. So wrong for each other.and yet so right. "You didn't do that-did you? It was done to you?" No one ever asked that question. Why did it have to be Noah Hutchins? His dark brown eyes shifted to my covered arms. It had been so long since someone touched me like he did. I promise." Noah tucked a curl behind my ear.

His inestigation leaves him with more questions than answers. When hes sent to do a fluff piece about lights in the Arizona night sky, he discovers far more than he ever expected. Modern Mythology is a collection of fifteen imaginative stories having mythological themes and also possessing interesting mythological allusions and characters. Veteran newspaper man, Peter Anderson’s career is slipping away. No less than Alexander Pope in The Rape of the Lock, Equiano in his Interesting Narrative requires his readers to consider the limits of ‘the rich interplay between the author’s text and the full contexts it allusively arouses’ to appreciate the role his allusions play ‘in constituting the fabric of his’ autobiography. Furthermore, what Equiano does not say when he quotes from or alludes to external texts may be as significant as what he says explicitly, because such ellipses prompt his informed readers tofill in the gaps he leaves to recognise for themselves the full implications of his argument. He invokes other voices to render his personal experiences and observations universal. A close look at Equiano’s use of quotations and allusions, particularly in Chapter 5 of his autobiography, demonstrates that he relies on his readers’ familiarity with the relevant intertextual contexts in effect to coauthor or complete his arguments. Few have discussed Equiano as a literary artist at the verbal level. Written by Himself (London, 1789), they have said very little about how Equiano employs intertextual allusions in his argument against the slave trade. Although in recent years historians and literary critics have often cited or commented on Olaudah Equiano’s The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, or Gustavus Vassa, the African. A decade later, Guyanese writer Bertène Juminer publishes 'La Revanche du Bozambo' (1968)/ 'Bozambo's Revenge' (1976), which transfers the plight of Africans struggling against European colonialism to Europeans struggling against African colonialism. At the All African Peoples' Congress, Kwame Nkrumah declares the century of Africa and proclaims a future USAF, a project still under consideration by the African Union (AU). Launched by Ghanaian director John Akomfrah's classic film 'The last angel of history' (1995), Afrofuturism looks back to modernist roots, but looks forward to the ramifications of postcoloniality and postmodernity. Journal of African Cinemas (ISSN 1754-923X)Įxtending the 1990s movement of Afrofuturism in new directions, recent African writers and filmmakers have made important satirical contributions to the idea of a future United States of Africa (USAF) to which westerners scramble to gain admittance.

And "Mutuality" spoke deeply to my tension with many so-called Christian leaders right now. The changing dynamics of schools in "The Secret Life of Teachers" made my heart ache. My mind is still ruminating on "Vice Versa" and its line about comparison vs. Unraveling is some of the most moving poetry I've read (listened to) in a while. My thanks to NetGalley, the publisher, and Brandon Leake for an advanced audio copy of this poetry in exchange for my honest opinion. I thought it was amazing and unapparelled to anything I have ever seen expressed before in poetry. Truly, Leake is gifted with word expression, and although I found many of his poems beautiful, full of deep heart-felt spontaneous sentiment, the message(s) of the poet, will speaks (or not) to each individual's heart. Many of the very last lines of a poem, deliver a "wow moment". Leake's poetry is dramatic and intense, yet delivered with smooth elegance. In Unraveling: Poems, his poetry themes include religion, Christ, being black, prejudice, love of family, friends (or rather lack of true friends), injustice. Brandon Leake, author of "Unraveling: Poems", no doubt is gifted in turning his deep, heartfelt, expressive thoughts, into poignant vocabulary dripping with emotion, and is most especially noticed and appreciated as he narrates his own poems in the audiobook. Building like a summer storm, the pace and drama accelerate as thunderstorms, earthquakes, wildfires and tornadoes buffet the twin protagonists, who stand together as they face the elements. In a surprising climax, Simon realizes how much he needs his science-savvy twin. Initially overwhelmed, Simon must choose between preventing disaster by stabilizing the weather or joining forces with London. London hopes to coerce Simon into participating in his sinister agenda, stirring up destructive weather events. The youngest Storm Maker on record, Simon has tremendous potential, but he is threatened by Rupert London, chairman of MOSS (Makers of Storms Society). When a freak thunderstorm coincides with Simon’s sudden illness, a mysterious stranger named Otis reveals that Simon is a Storm Maker, one of a select few with power to control the weather. The children have always been close, but since turning 12, Simon seems moody and withdrawn. Contemporary twins in rural Wisconsin discover what’s really behind the weather in this meteorological tale of power and sibling solidarity.Ī year ago, Ruby and Simon’s parents quit their jobs in a Chicago suburb and moved to a small farm to pursue dreams now threatened by a severe drought.
