One who can trace her roots from the very first to call the Isle of Skye home. The isle draws many to its magical shores. It drew him. Imposing, bold, and handsome. We fell hard and fast that summer. Then he left with the tide to the city. I learned to live with the cracks and fissures on my pieced-together heart, the scars only I can feel. Until the day he walks back into my life asking for a second chance. I yearn to give it to him. How can I not? He’s the only one I’ve ever loved. The only one I will ever love. But there is a darkness growing on the isle—a treacherous evil that has targeted him. I’ve lost him once. I won’t lose him again. A Druid with a secret past. A man looking for a second chance. Return to Scotland and New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Donna Grant’s Skye Druids, where magic and danger intertwine and a tale of love, sacrifice, and second chances unfolds.

A typhoon’s wrath can be weathered with friends. Olenka is running away, and nothing is going to stop her: not monks, not monsoons, not even the crushing depths of the ocean itself. For too long she’s been dreaming of a life on the high seas, somewhere far beyond the temple’s suffocating walls. A sirena’s life filled with mystery and adventure and freedom. But freedom comes at a price. As Olenka quickly learns, the bustling boardwalks of Sotay Wharf harbor more than silks and spices. Wicked things haunt these waters: hungry sharks searching for careless minnows. If she’s going to have a chance of navigating these treacherous straits, she’ll need a crew. An experienced crew. But experience also comes at a price. Clueless and afraid, Olenka stumbles into Daisay, a fast-talking sirena captain, and her ragged band of almost-pirates. With the temple’s bushi tracking her on one end, and a ship of kaizo hunting her on the other, are Daisay’s seasoned spears just the help she needs to survive? Or will the crew’s checkered past add another weave to the net already closing in around them? What readers are saying about Kindred Straits: "I enjoyed the story telling and all the characters.

Louise Erdrich is one of the most important, prolific, and widely read contemporary Indigenous writers. Here leading scholars analyze the three critically acclaimed recent novels—The Plague of Doves (2008), The Round House (2012), and LaRose (2016)—that make up what has become known as Erdrich’s “justice trilogy.” Set in small towns and reservations of northern North Dakota, these three interwoven works bring together a vibrant cast of characters whose lives are shaped by history, identity, and community. Individually and collectively, the essays herein illuminate Erdrich’s storytelling abilities; the complex relations among crime, punishment, and forgiveness that characterize her work; and the Anishinaabe contexts that underlie her presentation of character, conflict, and community. The volume also includes a reader’s guide to each novel, a glossary, and an interview with Erdrich that will aid in readers’ navigation of the justice novels. These timely, original, and compelling readings make a valuable contribution to Erdrich scholarship and, subsequently, to the study of Native literature and women’s authorship as a whole.

With the publication of La Maravilla (1993), Alfredo Véa entered the world of letters in full possession of his craft as a novelist, blending narrative fiction and engaging anecdotes with allusions to art (music, paintings, poetry) and autobiography (e.g., his tour of duty in Vietnam), written in the poetry and prose of the world with penetrating reflections on America (as an ideal), and the United States (as a country). Véa’s narrative trilogy was recognized for its attention to language, ingenious conception at the level of plot and theme, and broad reflections on American society, its history (politics, art, religion, the entertainment industry), and its role as a world power in the twentieth century, specifically during the Vietnam war. Although recognized as a writer of great intuition and exceptional creativity, until now, no book-length study has been written on Alfredo Véa as a novelist. In this book, each one of the novels in the trilogy is analyzed and interpreted from an interdisciplinary perspective and with the general reader in mind, as well as college and university professors and students of US and world literatures.

Metapoetry in Euripides

Metapoetry in Euripides

DOWNLOAD EBOOK

Metapoetry in Euripides is the first detailed study of the self-conscious literary devices applied within Euripidean drama and how these are interwoven with issues of thematic importance, whether social, theological, or political. In the volume, Torrance argues that Euripides employed a complex system of metapoetic strategies in order to draw the audience's attention to the novelty of his compositions. The metapoetic strategies discussed include intertextual allusions to earlier poetic texts (especially to Homer, Aeschylus and Sophocles) which are often developed around unusual and memorable language or imagery, deployment of recognizable trigger words referring to plot construction, novelties or secondary status, and self-conscious references to fiction implied through allusion to writing. Torrance also looks at and compares metapoetic techniques used in tragedy, satyr-drama, and old comedy to demonstrate that the Greek tragedians commonly exploited metapoetic strategies, and that metapoetry is more pervasive in Euripides than in the other tragedians. While Euripides shares some metapoetic techniques with old comedy, these remain implicit in his tragedies (but not in his satyr-dramas).
