Synopsis It's Not Really Me by : Blythe Dunwood

I feel puzzled and perplexed for decades with my feelings, thoughts and behavior. I’m beginning to piece myself back together and gain ground more rapidly these days. One step at a time in forward gear, but slow on the go emotionally each moment of every day. My awareness of self has become very keen since I’m beginning to accept my inward struggles and my understanding of myself through writing my memoir. The book is my first will and testament to my inward struggles. As you begin to read this book, you will see that the character is emotionally confused, depleted, imploded and plain old-fashioned lost. All my attempts to learn about myself, my feelings and my thoughts are sharply unveiled until I move forward in the end to more of a meaningful life! So from searching very deeply to becoming more realistic and logical, I hope my readers gain access to some helpful information as I did and continue to do, gaining more hope and more fullness of life! Until my next book…

Synopsis Prismatic Ecology by : Jeffrey Jerome Cohen

Emphasizing sustainability, balance, and the natural, green dominates our thinking about ecology like no other color. What about the catastrophic, the disruptive, the inaccessible, and the excessive? What of the ocean’s turbulence, the fecundity of excrement, the solitude of an iceberg, multihued contaminations? Prismatic Ecology moves beyond the accustomed green readings of ecotheory and maps a colorful world of ecological possibility. In a series of linked essays that span place, time, and discipline, Jeffrey Jerome Cohen brings together writers who illustrate the vibrant worlds formed by colors. Organized by the structure of a prism, each chapter explores the coming into existence of nonanthropocentric ecologies. “Red” engages sites of animal violence, apocalyptic emergence, and activism; “Maroon” follows the aurora borealis to the far North and beholds in its shimmering alternative modes of world composition; “Chartreuse” is a meditation on postsustainability and possibility within sublime excess; “Grey” is the color of the undead; “Ultraviolet” is a potentially lethal force that opens vistas beyond humanly known nature. Featuring established and emerging scholars from varying disciplines, this volume presents a collaborative imagining of what a more-than-green ecology offers. While highlighting critical approaches not yet common within ecotheory, the contributions remain diverse and cover a range of topics including materiality, the inhuman, and the agency of objects. By way of color, Cohen guides readers through a reflection of an essentially complex and disordered universe and demonstrates the spectrum as an unfinishable totality, always in excess of what a human perceives.

Synopsis It's All in the Knowing by : Bishop J. A. Tolbert 1St

It has been recorded by some astute observer of life that " Knowledge is power! " If that is the truth, then ignorance is impotence! Nowhere is this reality of greater consequence than in the arena of the classic battle between good and evil; right and wrong; holiness and unholiness! No one can live what one has never known nor can one know what one has never heard. This book, "It's all in the Knowing," puts to rest every excuse that the Child of the King has for living beneath the privileges of the sons of God! Read this book! Study this book! Examine it with your Bible in your hand and you will see that your prayer life will be revolutionized! You will rejoice because your expectations of God will be those that will cause Him to smile at His sons who are living as His sons! If you allow this book to become a Knowing in your heart; a Revelation in your spirit - you will walk as a son of God among men! "It's all in the Knowing!" Bishop J. A. Tolbert 1st

Synopsis Cuckoo by : S.D. Breen

Cuckoos are parasites; they can't help themselves. It's their nature, and their fate. Slyly abandoned in another birds nest, the cuckoo chick is an outrageous impostor. Its survival depends on the ruthless elimination of its siblings, frequently - and heedlessly - working its unsuspecting foster-parents to death. Growing up in Highbury in the early 90s, Pat feels monstrous and out of place. A decade earlier, three-year-old nephew Liam drowned in the bath. No one knows exactly what happened. Pat, a few months older than Liam, was in the bath with him but cant remember a thing. Indeed, when you carry on playing with your nephew long after the incident, its hard to believe they are even dead until someone points to the gravestone. And when you find out that your parents werent who you thought they were, the connection to the cuckoo seems complete. But theres worse to come: villainy, prostitution, murder, madness and moving to Spurs turf. CUCKOO is the dark and funny story of a young person coming to terms with a truly terrible legacy.
