The Liberation of Aunt Jemima: A Poetic Tribute to the Spiritual Woman

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThis book of poetry is designed to gently stir the emotional, spiritual, and humorous senses of the female reader. The title poem, A?The Liberation of Aunt JemimaA? has been a favor among African Americans, especially the ambitious, striving, independent, accomplished, spiritual, and educated African American woman, since 1992. It expresses how the female descendants of slaves have overcome the negative image of black women set into motion over five centuries ago. This book is a celebration of all female endeavors from godly marriages to single parenting hardships. The author aspires to visit the heart and soul of the conscientious spiritual woman. The poems, however, are not poetic rhetoric to flatter but instead verse and prose of realistic, deep spiritual perspectives, admonitions, praise, and straight talk. Some poems will reach right out and embrace your understanding however there are others in which you must reach inward to grasp the… [detailed...]

The Libertines Bound Together: The Definitive Story of Peter Doherty and Carl Barat and How They Changed British Music

2006 y.
Publisher: Little, Brown
Description: In the short time they existed, the indie rock band The Libertines kick-started a music Renaissance. Their grungy rock sound and such stunts as giving away albums for free erased the barrier with fans and inspired thousands. Yet for all their musical acumen, the band made the most headlines for their apparent “live fast, die young” lifestyle and for lead man Pete Doherty’s drug addictions and ongoing relationship with fashion model Kate Moss. This insightful new look at The Libertines goes behind the headlines to document the band’s true history, tracing its extraordinary highs and lows through the breakup and fallout between Doherty and the rest of the group. Lushly illustrated with rare photos, this is the authentic story of the band that defined a generation. [detailed...]

Desmond King
The Liberty Of Strangers: Making The American Nation

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionHarry S. Truman once said, `Ours is a nation of many different groups, of different races, of different national origins.` And yet, the debate over what it means--and what it takes--to be an American remains contentious. Nationalist solidarity, many claim, requires a willful blending into the assimilationist alloy of these United States. Others argue that the interests of both nation and individual are best served by allowing multiple traditions to flourish--a salad bowl of identities and allegiances, rather than a melting pot. Tracing how Americans have confronted and relinquished, but mostly clung to group identities over the past century, Desmond King here debunks one of the guiding assumptions of American nationhood, namely that group distinction and identification would gradually dissolve over time, creating a `postethnic` nation. Over the course of the twentieth century, King shows, the divisions in American society arising from group loyalties have consistently… [detailed...]

The Lie: A Novel

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: With the publication of The Average American Male -- and the release of the shocking viral videos that made it a water-cooler sensation -- Chad Kultgen became one of the most talked-about authors of recent years. Now, with The Lie, Kultgen returns with an even more salacious -- yet also more searching -- novel that reaches deeper into the craven inner workings of some of most depraved minds in America: college students. His subjects are Brett, the rich hedonist whose appetite for sex is matched only by his contempt for women, his best friend, Kyle, the brooding science geek whose good intentions lead him to one disastrous decision, and Heather, the social-climbing sorority girl who has the power to destroy them both. As this devil`s triangle plows through four years of college, Kultgen offers a astonishing take on the wild and amoral universe of college today: a frathouse world where sex is social currency, status means everything -- and winner takes all. Abandon hope, all ye who… [detailed...]

Description: Book DescriptionThe most popular of all Russian composers, Peter Tchaikovsky is probably best known for his ballets. Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty, and Nutcracker are still performed worldwide. But a good part of Tchaikovsky`s career was spentwriting operas. Eugene Onegin and The Queen of Spades are two of his better-known works. A precocious child, Peter could read French and German by the age of six. At seven, he wrote verses in French. In school, he studied to be a lawyer. It was not until he was twenty-one years old that he turned his focus to music. But this man who made such beautiful melodies was unhappy most of his life. He was terrified when he stood in front of an orchestra. He had an unrealistic fear that his headwould fall off and he actually held his left hand under his chin to keep his head attached! He had miserable relationships with women and a disastrous marriage. He left a great legacy of beautiful music. From the diaries and letters… [detailed...]

The Life And Death Of Bling Bling: A Story Of Innovation, Proliferation, Regurgitation Commercialization And Bastardization

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionInstructoart Cool to uncool. Insider to mainstream. Black to white. How did `Bling Bling` move from one world to the other, seemingly overnight? Matthew Vescovo, master of the obvious and creator of Instructoart Lesson 1, hilariously connects the dots and takes us full circle from the raw underground rap origins of the phrase `Bling Bling,` to its ultimate demise in the hands of unhip, suburban, housewives. This story of innovation, proliferation, regurgitation, commercialization, and bastardization, is based on Vescovo`s highly popular animated short for MTV. Appropriately written in verse, it illustrates a common theme in contemporary culture--that of black culture carving out ownership of something exclusively its own . . . and other groups copying and abusing that thing until it has lost its originality. With sharp humor and wit, amusing comic-style illustrations, and an historical truth that resonates with its audience as it probes deeper issues, this book… [detailed...]

The Life Before Her Eyes

2002 y.
Publisher: Harvest Books
Description: Diana stands before the mirror preening with her best friend, Maureen. Suddenly, a classmate enters holding a gun, and Diana sees her life dance before her eyes. In a moment the future she was just imagining - a doting wife and mother at the age of forty - is sealed by a horrific decision she is forced to make. In prose infused with the dramatically feminine sensuality of spring, we experience seventeen-year-old Diana`s uncertain steps into womanhood - her awkward, heated forays into sex, her fresh, fragile construction of an identity. Together with the sights and sounds of renewal, we experience the tasks of Diana`s adulthood: protecting her beloved daughter and holding onto her successful husband. An acclaimed writer and poet, Laura Kasischke has crafted a consciousness that encompasses the truth of a teenager`s world and the profound transformation of that world at midlife. Resonant and deeply stirring, `The Life Before Her Eyes` finds piercing beauty in the midst of a… [detailed...]

The Life Insurance Enterprise, 1855-1910: A Study in the Limits of Corporate Power

1999 y.
Publisher: iUniverse
Description: This book examines the critical period in the development f the modern life insurance business. The discussion of ideology, managerial and business techniques, the foreign market, investment policies, and government regulation centers on the Big Five. The New York Life, Equitable Life, Mutual Life, and Metropolitan Life insurance companies in New York and the Prudential Insurance Company in Newark at the end of the nineteenth century possessed enormous power. Their problem was how to accommodate themselves to the conditions of a free society. Keller vividly portrays the quest for power of a late-nineteenth-century American corporate group—their sophisticated business, marketing, and investment techniques, the attempt to persuade the State Department and its ambassadors to assist American companies expanding into the foreign market, and the use of the enterprise`s substantial assets to influence state and federal regulation. Finally, he sketches the beginning of the end of… [detailed...]
