DOWNLOAD EBOOKA young writer's search for a place called home, what it means to be an artist, and finding peace with a restless heart. The follow up to Charlotte Eriksson's first book "Empty Roads & Broken Bottles; in search for The Great Perhaps", is the continued self-exploring quest of a young artist. Poetry, travel stories and journals that brings you in to this young girl's journey. ---------------- The journals and poetry explore the dreamer's fate of leaving and arriving, love and loss, and learning to go on on your own. It captures the city of Berlin, where I somehow ended up. The broken concrete, conversations with strangers, small moments of ache or clarity. The stories leads to the chapter of my Album Journals "Learning What It Means To Be An Artist," which is a series of journals and letters behind what came to be my second album "I Must Be Gone and Live, or Stay and Die". The album and this book go hand in hand and the lyrics and quotes blend into one another. The reader will find the book as a world of its own, and the listener of the album will find the musical world expanded into reality.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA wall that was five feet high and built of concrete, rock, and mortar split Crane, Texas, in half more than a half century ago—with blacks on one side and whites on the other. Evelyn Rossler Stroder, a longtime teacher, gave little thought to the wall as she ran teacher errands to the former Bethune School for blacks, which in the late 1960s became the Bethune Annex to the Crane school system. In this history, she explores the origins of the wall, the community’s recollection of it, and how it symbolized the ugliness of racial segregation. She also examines the consequences of separating the school systems, swimming pools, movie theaters, and most every facet of life in the small oil field community. The story also celebrates how sports brought the two communities together, beginning with the Bethune basketball team, which had won three state championships in their conference of all-black schools, coming together with their new, white classmates in 1965. The integrated team brought Crane all the way to the state finals. Discover how sports helped a small West Texas town move forward in this inspiring tale about The Wall That Failed.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTwo generations of women, intertwined. The story begins after World War II when a woman depended on social conventions, up to today where the male domain is often showed in physical and psychological violence. The novel visits the wrong choices made for love and the liberation earned through the real love for the children until the final encounter with sister death. A story speaking of life and death. Not a biography, but a deposition to the Court of the Absentees: calling everyone to appear and take a part of responsability. A warning for today. A catharsis for yesterday. Telling is to resist. Words as well as ideas, have a story to be named not to implode and disperse. Loredana De Vita, from Naples, Professor of English Language and Literature, journalist and counselor, has a personality especially paid to communication. Among her publications, Armando: Let’s Play I Was... Conversation with those who love school (2009); Parents Out of Control (2010), We are Nothing But Voice (2011).
