Relationships intersect and tangle, and Daisy, Christian, and Julian will learn that sometimes life’s most worthwhile pursuits can only be paid in blood.

The Song Is You by Bradley Rogers Pdf

Musicals, it is often said, burst into song and dance when mere words can no longer convey the emotion. This book argues that musicals burst into song and dance when one body can no longer convey the emotion. Rogers shows how the musical’s episodes of burlesque and minstrelsy model the kinds of radical relationships that the genre works to create across the different bodies of its performers, spectators, and creators every time the musical bursts into song. These radical relationships—borne of the musical’s obsessions with “bad” performances of gender and race—are the root of the genre’s progressive play with identity, and thus the source of its subcultural power. However, this leads to an ethical dilemma: Are the musical’s progressive politics thus rooted in its embrace of regressive entertainments like burlesque and minstrelsy? The Song Is You shows how musicals return again and again to this question, and grapple with a guilt that its joyous pleasures are based on exploiting the laboring bodies of its performers. Rogers argues that the discourse of “integration”—which claims that songs should advance the plot—has functioned to deny the radical work that the musical undertakes every time it transitions into song and dance. Looking at musicals from The Black Crook to Hamilton, Rogers confronts the gendered and racial dynamics that have always under-girded the genre, and asks how we move forward.

Under the Magnolias by T.I. Lowe Pdf

2022 Christy Award finalist! This night not only marked the end to the drought, but also the end to the long-held secret we’d kept hidden under the magnolias. Magnolia, South Carolina, 1980 Austin Foster is barely a teenager when her mama dies giving birth to twins, leaving her to pick up the pieces while holding her six siblings together and doing her best to stop her daddy from retreating into his personal darkness. Scratching out a living on the family’s tobacco farm is as tough as it gets. When a few random acts of kindness help to ease the Fosters’ hardships, Austin finds herself relying upon some of Magnolia’s most colorful citizens for friendship and more. But it’s next to impossible to hide the truth about the goings-on at Nolia Farms, and Austin’s desperate attempts to save face all but break her. Just when it seems she might have something more waiting for her—with the son of a wealthy local family who she’s crushed on for years—her father makes a choice that will crack wide-open the family’s secrets and lead to a public reckoning. There are consequences for loving a boy like Vance Cumberland, but there is also freedom in the truth. T. I. Lowe’s gritty yet tender and uplifting coming-of-age tale reminds us that a great story can break your heart . . . then heal it in the best possible way.

Fish Stories by Karen Kennedy Samoranos Pdf

Unassuming Crescent County, California, is infested with murder, incest, mayhem, greed and self-serving political factions, artfully concealed by virtue of its charming facade. It is an isolated realm of superficial religious conservatism, where murky characters exploit the law, and manipulate truth in the local media, stubbornly embracing the Good Ol' Boy mentality in one of the most progressive regions of the United States. Fish Stories Live From Saraville is the fourth novel from author and California native Karen Kennedy Samoranos, and encompasses the darker, fatal side of author Samoranos' Saraville Series. From an abusive manipulator; a judge on the take; a homicidal police-chief, and the rebirth of white supremacy; to a failed high school shooting with a lethal twist, Fish Stories travels down the murky backroads of humanity. With its stark narrative of unrequited lust, avarice, political favor and damaged psyches, Fish Stories endures as an evocative and candid examination of the malignant architecture of human behavior, in this fictional recount of life in northeastern California.
