The Gloomy Girl Variety Show: A Memoir by Freda Epum
English | January 14, 2025 | ISBN: 1558613102 | True EPUB | 224 pages | 12 MB
Merging memoir, poetry, and criticism, this radical literary revue traces a first-generation Nigerian American's search for home and belonging on her own terms.
In The Gloomy Girl Variety Show, Freda Epum explores the opposing forces of her "no-place, no-where" identity as a Nigerian American daughter, diasporically displaced, who spent years in and out of institutions seeking treatment for life-threatening mental illness. Epum examines her journey through healthcare and housing systems via a pop cultural lens-our collective obsession with HGTV's home buying and makeover shows-and a patchwork of poetry, art, and autotheory.
With raw honesty and glittering wit, this debut memoir maps the complexity of life under intersecting forms of oppression, revealing what it takes to turn from the brink of despair toward community and self-acceptance, find refuge in love, and reimagine home.

The Glyph and the Gramophone: D.H. Lawrence's Religion By Luke Ferretter
2013 | 142 Pages | ISBN: 1441122958 | EPUB | 1 MB
D. H. Lawrence wrote in 1914, 'Primarily I am a passionately religious man, and my novels must be written from the depths of my religious experience.' Although he had broken with the Congregationalist faith of his childhood by his early twenties, Lawrence remained throughout his writing life a passionately religious man. There have been studies in the last twenty years of certain aspects of Lawrence's religious writing, but we lack a survey of the history of his developing religious thought and of his expressions of that thought in his literary works. This book provides that survey, from 1915 to the end of Lawrence's life. Covering the war years, Lawrence's American works, his time in Australia and Mexico, and the works of the last years of his life, this book provides readers with a complete analysis, during this period, of Lawrence as a religious man, thinker and artist.

The God of Story: Discovering the Narrative of Scripture Through the Language of Storytelling by Daniel Schwabauer
English | February 18, 2025 | ISBN: 1540904768, 1540904636 | True EPUB | 272 pages | 5.5 MB
Many of us have been taught to read Scripture as a collection of information that needs to be categorized, systematized, and analyzed verse by verse, concept by concept. But the Bible isn't a jigsaw puzzle, and it wasn't written in just Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. It was also written in the language of story. And as with every good story, we get to meet colorful characters, unravel mysteries, and see the world from a different point of view. It all makes more sense when understood from the perspective of storytelling.
In The God of Story, Daniel Schwabauer explores the narrative principles of theme, context, characterization, voice, and Description as a lens for understanding the cosmic story arc of God's relationship to humanity. By including creative retellings of biblical stories, he demonstrates how to engage Scripture with imagination.
For a fresh approach to reading the Bible and discovering how its stories connect to your own, start by learning to see God as the master storyteller.

The Golden Garuda: The Extraordinary Life of Modern-Day Mahasiddha Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche by Khenpo Sodargye
English | January 7, 2025 | ISBN: 1645473198 | True EPUB | 264 pages | 17 MB
A moving biography of Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche, one of the twentieth century's most influential Tibetan Buddhist teachers, written by his devoted student Khenpo Sodargye.
Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche (1933-2004) was one of the most influential Buddhist teachers of the twentieth century. In this moving biography, Khenpo Sodargye-a lead teacher at Larung Gar Five Sciences Buddhist Academy-brings his beloved root teacher's remarkable story and accomplishments to life with wisdom and reverence. His personal anecdotes coupled with the prophecies of great masters and verse from Buddhist texts offer a portrait that is at once intimate and profound, revealing Jigme Phuntsok's legacy as the mythical "golden garuda" who was instrumental in the flourishing of Buddhism. During a pivotal period in modern Tibetan history, he created the world's largest Buddhist institution, attracted thousands of followers with his nonsectarian teachings, and taught some of today's great Tibetan Buddhist teachers.
The engaging narrative unfolds chronologically in dozens of short, impactful chapters. We're introduced to Jigme Phuntsok's previous incarnations and learn about his early years. We experience his teaching trips, including a journey to the holy mountain of Wutaishan in China together with ten thousand Tibetan disciples. We learn about his visionary experiences and revelations, including one that failed-a rare account in Tibetan literature of such an occurrence. With elements of biography, travelogue, and magical tale, this life story contains adventure, suffering, and human connection.
This portrayal of the great Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche's compassionate life dedicated to spiritual practice and teaching will inspire Buddhist practitioners and meditators and readers with an interest in modern Tibetan and Buddhist history.

English | 30 Jan. 2025 | ISBN: 1805221949 | True EPUB | 224 pages | 0.3 MB
'An original voice' Colm Tóibín
'Duncan brings a new way of seeing' Irish Times
'A deliberative and delicate reading experience, revelatory in the truest sense of that word' Guardian
During winter season in a secluded Alpine city, John Molloy, an Irish restorative sculptor, meets Bernadette, an enigmatic Italian sociologist. As John falls in love, a distressing moment from his youth rises into view, the disastrous fallout of which has reverberated unchecked through his life.
Years later, a letter from home arrives, asking him to pray for the speedy death of an ailing friend. Over a day-long odyssey through the ancient streets and churches of Bologna, John is forced to confront his present, his past and the bedrock of his psyche. A delicately crafted novel of two halves, a decade apart, The Gorgeous Inertia of the Earth is a masterful excavation of human desires, inhibitions, and the patterns of habit to which we unwittingly fall prey.

The Gospel According to the Novelist: Religious Scripture and Contemporary Fiction By Magdalena Maczynska
2015 | 161 Pages | ISBN: 1780936230 | EPUB | 1 MB
Why have so many prominent literary authors-from Philip Pullman and José Saramago to Michèle Roberts and Colm Tóibím-recently rewritten the canonical story of Jesus Christ? What does that say about our supposedly secular age? In this insightful study, Magdalena Maczynska defines and examines the genre of scriptural metafiction: novels that not only transform religious texts but also draw attention to these transformations. In addition to providing rich examples and close readings, Maczynska positions literary studies within interdisciplinary debates about religion and secularity. Her book demonstrates a surprising turn of events: even as contemporary novelists deconstruct the traditional categories of "secular" and "sacred" writing, they open up new spaces for scripture in contemporary culture.

The Great Degeneration: How Institutions Decay and Economies Die by Niall Ferguson
English | 30 Jan. 2014 | ISBN: 1846147328, 0141975237, 9780141975221 | True EPUB | 192 pages | 0.7 MB
The decline of the West is something that has long been prophesied. Symptoms of decline are all around us today: slowing growth, crushing debts, ageing populations. But what exactly is amiss with Western civilization? The answer, Niall Ferguson argues, is that the institutions that were once the four pillars of Western society - representative government, the free market, the rule of law and civil society - are degenerating.
The Great Degeneration is a powerful indictment of an era of negligence and complacency. To stop us frittering away the institutional inheritance of centuries, Ferguson warns, will take heroic leadership and radical reform.

The Great Degeneration: How Institutions Decay and Economies Die (US Edition) by Niall Ferguson
English | June 24, 2014 | ISBN: 0143125524, 9781101608456 | True EPUB | 192 pages | 3.3 MB
From the bestselling author of The Ascent of Money and The Square and the Tower, a searching and provocative examination of the widespread institutional rot that threatens our collective future
What causes rich countries to lose their way? Symptoms of decline are all around us today: slowing growth, crushing debts, increasing inequality, aging populations, antisocial behavior. But what exactly has gone wrong? The answer, Niall Ferguson argues in The Great Degeneration, is that our institutions-the intricate frameworks within which a society can flourish or fail-are degenerating. With characteristic verve and historical insight, Ferguson analyzes the causes of this stagnation and its profound consequences for the future of the West. The Great Degeneration is an incisive indictment of an era of negligence and complacency-and to arrest the breakdown of our civilization, Ferguson warns, will take heroic leadership and radical reform.

The Great Discovery: Our Journey to the Catholic Church By Ulf Ekman; Birgitta Ekman
2018 | 282 Pages | ISBN: 1586172220 | EPUB | 1 MB
Ulf and Birgitta Ekman are no strangers to controversy. As a Lutheran priest at Uppsala University in the 1980s, Ulf was a leader of a student revival that resulted in his very public separation from the Church of Sweden. With his wife, Birgitta, he founded Word of Life, a large Pentecostal church that attracted thousands of members and planted churches and Bible schools around the world. Word of Life became the first "mega-church" in the country, and Ulf Ekman became Sweden's most prominent Christian leader. Being well-known Christian leaders in one of the world's most secular countries brings many challenges. The Ekmans were constantly in the crosshairs of the media, who were critical of what they dubbed a "prosperity gospel". But the biggest criticisms would come from within the Christian church when the Ekmans answered the persistent call to join the Catholic Church. The news of their leaving Word of Life Church to become Catholics was a bombshell in Sweden. In The Great Discovery the Ekmans tell the amazing, inspirational story of their road to Rome, from their own intense opposition to Catholicism to meeting with Pope Francis. The result is an instant classic of Christian autobiography.

The Great Encounter of China and the West, 1500-1800, 5th Edition (Critical Issues in World and International History) by D. E. Mungello
English | September 17, 2024 | ISBN: 9798881801045 | True EPUB | 206 pages | 13.5 MB
For the Chinese, the drive toward growing political and economic power is part of an ongoing effort to restore China's past greatness and remove the lingering memories of history's humiliations. This widely praised book explores the 1500-1800 period before China's decline, when the country was viewed as a leading world culture and power. Europe, by contrast, was in the early stages of emerging from provincial to international status while the United States was still an uncharted wilderness. D. E. Mungello argues that this earlier era, ironically, may contain more relevance for today than the more recent past. Building on the author's decades of research and teaching, this compelling book illustrates the vital importance of history to readers trying to understand China's renewed rise.

The Great Gatsby (Oxford World's Classics) by F. Scott Fitzgerald, edited by Sarah Churchwell
English | December 18, 2024 | ISBN: 019886440X | True EPUB | 192 pages | 0.6 MB
'Can't repeat the past? ... Why of course you can!'
Often called 'the great American novel', F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby is a story of adulterous love, dreams, and betrayal among the super-rich in 1920s New York. The mysterious and wealthy Jay Gatsby throws extravagant parties while trying to reclaim a lost love. Capturing the excitement and glamour of the era Fitzgerald himself named 'the Jazz Age,' Fitzgerald's incandescent prose brings to life a shimmering world of hot jazz, flowing gin, and brute power, as Gatsby's dreams explode into tragedy. A biting satire of America's illusions about itself, this definitive chronicle of the 1920s is also a timeless exploration of the allure of our own ideals and romantic imagination-and what happens when we fail to live up to them.
This authoritative edition is fully annotated with an introduction from Sarah Churchwell, offering new interpretations and fresh ways of thinking about this much-loved masterpiece.

The Great Phonograph in the Sky: Selected Writings of John A. Keel By John Keel, Andrew Colvin
2015 | 256 Pages | ISBN: 150851660X | EPUB | 1 MB
New Saucerian Press is to pleased to present "The Great Phonograph in the Sky," a collection of magazine articles by John A. Keel, the man many consider to have been not only the premiere investigator of all things unusual and "Fortean," but who was also our own, twentieth-century"Mark Twain." Many of the articles in this anthology and its companion volumes, "Flying Saucer to the Center of Your Mind," "The Outer Limits of the Twilight Zone," and "Searching For the String" were revolutionary, and explored ideas popularized in Keel's classic books. Written in Keel's engaging trademark style, they are sure to delight fans with their fresh, unparalleled insights into the nature of reality. In these pages, John Keel displays the keen observational skills and investigative tenacity that made him the enfant terrible of ufology for decades. In this no-holds-barred analysis - much of it written decades ago - Keel shreds many of the sacred-cow beliefs still held in ufological and "cryptozoological" circles today, and presents theories so radical that they are only now becoming accepted: the "4-D" or "interdimensional" thesis; the "breakaway civilization" theory; the possible role of "ancient aliens" in human history; the synthetic and/or hallucinatory nature of many "alien abduction" and "Men in Black" encounters; the role of spy agencies in paranormal research; and the alarming connection between UFOs, animal mutilations, and attacks on unsuspecting humans."The Great Phonograph in the Sky" covers a wide variety of topics, such as Eastern magic, statistical problems in UFO research, creature sightings, earth mysteries, psychological warfare, skyquakes, poltergeists, radio anomalies, and phantom ships, planes, submarines, and humans. This special edition features several interviews with Keel which, along with his writings, showcase his wit, affable charm, and impassioned intellectual capabilities."Entertaining... Provocative... Amazingly anomalous..." -Doug Skinner, johnkeel.com "Inspires each new generation to question reality..." -High Times "One of the great minds of our age..." -UFO Digest

The Great Reversal: Britain, China and the 400-Year Contest for Power by Kerry Brown
English | August 27, 2024 | ISBN: 0300272928 | True EPUB | 400 pages | 10.5 MB
A vivid history of the relationship between Britain and China, from 1600 to the present
The relationship between Britain and China has shaped the modern world. Chinese art, philosophy and science have had a profound effect upon British culture, while the long history of British exploitation is still bitterly remembered in China today. But how has their interaction changed over time?
From the early days of the East India Company through the violence of the Opium Wars to present-day disputes over Hong Kong, Kerry Brown charts this turbulent and intriguing relationship in full. Britain has always sought to dominate China economically and politically, while China's ideas and exports-from tea and Chinoiserie to porcelain and silk-have continued to fascinate in the west. But by the later twentieth century, the balance of power began to shift in China's favour, with global consequences. Brown shows how these interactions changed the world order-and argues that an understanding of Britain's relationship with China is now more vital than ever.

Philip Stevens - The Great War Explained
Pen and Sword | 2012 | ISBN: 1848847645 | English | 262 pages | PDF | 63.96 MB
This is much more than just another book to add to the thousands on The Great War. It sets out to fill a gap. Written for the layman by a layman (who is also an articulate and experienced battlefield guide) it summarizes the key events and contributions of key individuals, some well, others unknown but with a story to tell.
To get a true picture of this monumental event in history, it is necessary to grasp the fundamentals, be they military, political, social or simply human. The slaughters at Verdun, Somme and Passchendaele are no more than statistics without the stories of those that fought, drowned and died there.
It is designed to capture the imagination and feed the mind of that ever increasing number of people who seek a better understanding of The Great War.

The Great Épinal Escape: Indian Prisoners of War in German Hands
by Ghee Bowman
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1803995009 | 272 Pages | True ePUB | 14 MB
On 11 May 1944, just four weeks before D-Day, sixty-seven American heavy bombers dropped 168 tons of bombs on the sunlit French town of Épinal on the Moselle river. Unbeknownst to the aircrew of the 'Mighty Eighth', this was the temporary home of over 3,000 Indian prisoners of war - and these bombs had just taken down the walls.
The escapees took food and clothes and set off for the border. If they could make it to Switzerland, neutral territory, they would be safe. But between them and their goal were thousands of Nazis, collaborators and over 100km of French countryside.
The Great Épinal Escape is the incredible story of the most successful escape of the Second World War. It is the story of how, during a period showcasing the worst of humanity - a period marked by brutality, bloodlust and fascism - ordinary people were able to demonstrate the best of humanity: resilience, support and a warm welcome. Ultimately, it is a story of hope.

The Greatest Escape: Adventures in the History of Solitude By David Stimpson
2004 | 344 Pages | ISBN: 0595309909 | EPUB | 1 MB
Oh, if there were someone to tell us the history of that subtle feeling called solitude, mused the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. In The Greatest Escape, David Balcom answers that call, showing that solitude is an inevitable-yet vital and exciting-facet of our existence with a long, tumultuous past. He travels back in time to trace the spirit flights of shamans; wanders in the mountains of China, listening to the poetry of recluse scholars; visits the forests of India to participate in the dialogues of ancient sages; explores the wisdom of early Greek philosophers, Christian hermits, and Sufi mystics; and illuminates the role of solitude in the lives and writings of modern poets and intellectuals from Petrarch to Thoreau. Covering a broad swath of history, Balcom introduces us to powers and resources in solitude that are drowned in the clamor of modern life. He concludes that the experience of solitude can be creative, joyful, enlightening, sometimes all three at once-and that the perennial "fruits of solitude" are open to everyone. "Here," he writes, "is an apology for and a guide to the greatest of all escapes."

The Greek Revolution and the Violent Birth of Nationalism by Yanni Kotsonis
English | January 14, 2025 | ISBN: 069121526X | True EPUB | 392 pages | 28.8 MB
A sweeping global history of the birth of modern Greece
In 1821, a diverse territory in the southern Balkans on the fringe of the Ottoman Empire was thrust into a decade of astounding mass violence. The Greek Revolution and the Violent Birth of Nationalism traces how something new emerged from an imperial mosaic of myriad languages, religions, cultures, and localisms-the world's first ethnic nation-state, one that was born from the destruction and the creation of whole peoples, and which set the stage for the modern age of nationalism that was to come.
Yanni Kotsonis exposes the everyday chaos and brutality in the Balkan peninsula as the Ottoman regime unraveled. He follows the future Greeks on the seaways to Odesa, Alexandria, Livorno, and the Caribbean, and recovers the stories of peasants, merchants, warriors, aristocrats, and intellectuals who navigated the great empires that crisscrossed the region. Kotsonis recounts the experiences of the villagers and sailors who joined the armed battalions of the Napoleonic Wars and learned a new kind of warfare and a new practice of mass mobilization, lessons that served them well during the revolutionary decade. He describes how, as the bloody 1820s came to a close, the region's Muslims were no more and Greece was an Orthodox Christian nation united by a shared language and a claim to an ancient past.
This panoramic book shows how the Greek Revolution was a demographic upheaval more consequential than the overthrow of a ruler. Drawing on Ottoman sources together with archival evidence from Greece, Britain, France, Russia, and Switzerland, the book reframes the birth of modern Greece within the imperial history of the global nineteenth century.
