Farewell, My Free Bird A Mother’S Story of Her Daughter’S Life in the Dark World of Drugs and Prostitution...And the Phone Call That Changed Their Family Forever.【電子書籍】[ Carol Noe ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>We have a homicide. Weve fingerprinted the victim and identified her as your daughter, Angela Noe. These are the words that changed a mothers life forever. How can you be sure its her? She has a tattoo on her left shoulder that says, Free Bird. Carol Noes safe denial was smashed to pieces. Carol remembered how excited Angela was the day she got the Free Bird tattoo that represented her continual search for freedom. But Angelas desire to be free had a dark side. At about age 14, she began to resist authority; she stayed out late or didnt come home at all; and, soon, she was spiraling down a path of addiction. Despite family, friends, clergy, and therapists reaching out to help Angela, she continued her desperate slide into alcohol, drugs, and eventually a life of prostitution that ended with her tragic murder at the age of nineteen. Farewell, My Free Bird is a mothers story of her daughter, Angela, and her life that was filled with turmoil before she was brutally murdered. However, it is not only a story of tragedy and loss. More importantly, it is a story of forgiveness: forgiveness made possible only by Gods faithfulness to Angela and her family. It is a testimony of how God can bring freedom for the captives; how He can heal the broken-hearted; and how He brings new life out of death. It is natural to wonder, Is God real? Does He answer prayer? Can He be trusted? Does He care about each of us and what were going through? All these questions are answered with a resounding Yes! in the pages of Farewell, My Free Bird.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,144円

【古本】 Slaughter the One Bird - Kimberly Ann Priest (Sundress Publications) 【紙書籍】 9781951979201

Roundabout Books
タイトル: Slaughter the One Bird著者: Kimberly Ann Priest出版社: Sundress Publications出版日: 2021年07月15日古本ほぼ新品。傷みが少なく、しっかりと製本された、優れた、マークのないコピーです。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。Kimberly Ann Priest's debut full-length collection Slaughter the One Bird is a haunting and incisive meditation on the enduring effects of childhood sexual abuse. Reflecting on the impact of trauma on her memories and role as a mother, Priest intertwines past and present in a series of lyrical confessions and meditations on power and grief. In poems addressed to the nameless "pedophile," as well as a series of vignettes on everyday life ranging from subjects as varied as the preparation of breakfast to the migration of deer, she deconstructs the history of abuse spanning from childhood to her adult life in which she finds herself trapped in a relationship with a violent partner. Religious legalism and shame play a strong role in the power dynamics between perpetrator and victim. Vivid and moving, these poems offer a highly personal glimpse into the poet's journey through disempowerment and grief toward healing. 3,282円

Each year, over three hundred bird species visit their village, which intersects a major migratory flyway.</p> <p>The two boys’ stories converge when Jean enters a bird-calling contest. He places second, and at only eleven years old becomes a child celebrity on the bird-calling circuit. Then Johnny starts to compete as well. At the annual bird festival, both boys are standouts, and a long, admiring rivalry develops between them, eventually culminating in the European championships.</p> <p>As they evolve as performers, the two boys’ identities become more distinct: Jean is soft-spoken, while Johnny likes to play to the crowd. While most of their competitors are adult men, hunters who learned to call birds for sport, the two boys are fascinated with the pure beauty of birdsong, and in trying to transcend themselves through imitating birds. Their shared passion develops into an enduring partnership as performers, and they go on to tour the world in concert as the Bird Singers.</p> <p>This is a story as much about friendship as it is about birdsong. The setting is timeless and bucolic, with long walks to small village schools, games of pick-up soccer, and father-son birding trips. The chapters, which bounce back and forth between the two narrators, are woven through with descriptions of colorful characters in the bird-calling competition circuit and the kind of ornithological detail that can only come from a true passion for birds. There is poetry in the description of the different birds, from common seagulls to thrushes and bluethroats and nightingales, and something like communion in the way Jean and Johnny understand the feathered friends they imitate.</p> <p>Unique, evocative, and cinematic, <em>The Bird Singers</em> is the story of an unlikely friendship, sparked by a desire to speak with the avian world.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,840円

Among the Tibetans Victorian Travelogue Series (Annotated)【電子書籍】[ Isabella Lucy Bird ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>At the age of 63, Isabella Lucy Bird embarked on a remarkable journey that would become the captivating narrative of 'Among the Tibetans.' Published in the late 19th century, this account chronicles her awe-inspiring and formidable voyages across the sprawling Tibetan Plateaus and the breathtaking Himalayan mountain realms. Beginning her expedition in 1889, Bird ventured into the heart of these remote lands, unveiling the mysteries of territories like Ladakh, a region steeped in Tibetan culture nestled on the borders of India.</p> <p>Traversing treacherous mountain passes, some towering over 15,000 feet, Bird forged her path into the heart of Tibet, venturing through cities as storied as Lhasa and Gyantse. The sheer grandeur of the Great Himalayan Range loomed above her, dominating the high-altitude valleys and testing her physical resilience at every step. Amidst these towering peaks, she encountered a world of cultures and Buddhist heritage largely unfamiliar to the Western consciousness of her time.</p> <p>With her signature poetic prose, Bird becomes an intrepid observer and chronicler, delving deep into the daily lives of secluded Tibetan villages that remained untouched by the modernizing influences of the era. Her narrative unveils the intricacies of these remote societies, drawing attention to their ancient traditions that are woven with principles of resilience and resourcefulness, essential for survival in an unforgiving landscape.</p> <p>As she ventured further eastward, retracing her steps, Bird explored lesser-known corners of the Himalayas, such as Yarkand, before eventually concluding her expedition in India. Her memoir, penned with vivid detail and profound observation, introduced the mystique and enigma of Tibet and Central Asia to Western audiences. Notably, her perspective as a pioneering female explorer added a unique dimension to the exploration of one of the world's most challenging and captivating terrains.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 421円

Dissident Spirits The Post-Insular Imprint in Puerto Rican/Diasporic Literature【電子書籍】[ Nancy I. Bird-Soto ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book explores the post-insular imprint in Puerto Rican letters through a sample of authors from the island and the diaspora. From a canonical figure like Alejandro Tapia to the post-Nuyorican poet V?ctor Hern?ndez Cruz, and from the working-class feminism of Luisa Capetillo and Franca de Armi?o to Virginia S?nchez Korrol’s narrative homage to the legacy of Emilia Casanova, trends such as dissidence and migration are core to the understanding of the Puerto Rican and its diasporic experiences. In Tapia’s case, his <em>P?stumo</em> saga offers a transmigrated subject who questions the gender binary. Regarding Capetillo and Armi?o, a sample of their plays shows not only a global awareness, but also the intersection between class and gender issues to challenge patriarchal constraints. A related intersection, the one between gender and racial matters, is key in Casanova’s understanding of freedom and the pan-Antillean consciousness that Boricua historian S?nchez Korrol underscores in her novel about the Cuban activist. To conclude this examination of the post-insular imprint in works by authors in diverse canons and working in different genres, the closing chapter is dedicated to Hern?ndez Cruz’s poetry as an unequivocal celebration of the migratory experience of the Caribbean. These writers, thus, emerge as migrants of the word in a spirit of dissidence against colonialist notions of Puerto Rico, its diaspora, and the Caribbean.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 16,090円
