She knew what he wrote . . . One little word that made her feel both cheated and beloved. One word that changed everything. MINE. On a chilly morning in the Northwest Iowa town of Blackhawk, Dr. Lucas Hudson is filling in for the vacationing coroner on a seemingly open-and-shut suicide case. His own life is crumbling around him, but when he unearths the body of a woman buried in the barn floor beneath the hanging corpse, he realizes this terrible discovery could change everything. . . . Years before Lucas ever set foot in Blackhawk, Meg Painter met Dylan Reid. It was the summer before high school and the two quickly became inseparable. Although Meg's older neighbor, Jess, was the safe choice, she couldn't let go of Dylan no matter how hard she tried. Caught in a web of jealousy and deceit that spiraled out of control, Meg's choices in the past ultimately collide with Lucas's discovery in the present, weaving together a taut story of unspoken secrets and the raw, complex passions of innocence lost.

At the End of Sleep by Tal Nitzán Pdf

With At the End of Sleep, a bilingual anthology selected from the past decade of Israeli poet Tal Nitzán’s work, one of Hebrew poetry’s most powerful and acclaimed contemporary voices is finally given her English-language due. Reaching beyond lyricism for its own sake, Nitzán brings her lucid, sharp, and often ferocious verse to bear on not only sexuality and personal struggle, but also broader issues of war, power, and the Israeli condition. Praise for Tal Nitzán "Tal Nitzán has emerged as one of the most salient and powerful voices of Hebrew poetry in the last decade. Her work is distinguished by a lucid style coupled with a rare ability to condense and express feeling in a wide array of themes, ranging from the intimate and biographical to broad moral, social and political concerns, all presented with a fine poetic musicality never indulging in mere ornamentation." —Moshe Ron, Poetry International Rotterdam "(Tal Nitzán's) contribution to Hebrew culture is priceless. Her poetry, a display of poetic renewal with fierce expression and passionate emotion, creates a universe shaped as a home, a bond or a family, in which a single verse may warn against the dangers and evils of human existence. In this breathing poetry Nitzán merges the personal with the political and the aesthetic with the ethic." —Jury of the Prime Minister Levi Eshkol Creation Prize for Hebrew writers, 2010 The recipient of numerous awards, including the Women Writers’ Prize, the Culture Minister's Prize for Beginning Poets, and the Prime Minister's Prize for Writers, Tal Nitzán is a poet, editor, and translator of Hispanic literature. She has edited three anthologies and published six poetry books, including Doméstica (2002), An Ordinary Evening (2006), Café Soleil Bleu (2007), The First to Forget (2009), and Look at the Same Cloud Twice (2012). Her poetry has been translated into over twenty languages and appeared in numerous anthologies and magazines such as Modern Poetry in Translation, Habitus, Zeek, and Bridges. Her debut novel will be published in the summer of 2014. Nitzán has resided in Buenos Aires, Bogotá, and New York, and currently lives in Tel Aviv.

Trickster Drift by Eden Robinson Pdf

Following the Scotiabank Giller Prize-shortlisted Son of a Trickster comes Trickster Drift, the second book in Eden Robinson's captivating Trickster trilogy. In an effort to keep all forms of magic at bay, Jared, 17, has quit drugs and drinking. But his troubles are not over: now he's being stalked by David, his mom's ex--a preppy, khaki-wearing psycho with a proclivity for rib-breaking. And his mother, Maggie, a living, breathing badass as well as a witch, can't protect him like she used to because he's moved away from Kitimat to Vancouver for school. Even though he's got a year of sobriety under his belt (no thanks to his enabling, ever-partying mom), Jared also struggles with the temptation of drinking. And he's got to get his grades up, find a job that doesn't involve weed cookies, and somehow live peacefully with his Aunt Mave, who has been estranged from the family ever since she tried to "rescue" him as a baby from his mother. An indigenous activist and writer, Mave smothers him with pet names and hugs, but she is blind to the real dangers that lurk around them--the spirits and supernatural activity that fill her apartment. As the son of a Trickster, Jared is a magnet for magic, whether he hates it or not--he sees ghosts, he sees the monster moving underneath his Aunt Georgina's skin, he sees the creature that comes out of his bedroom wall and creepily wants to suck his toes. He also still hears the Trickster in his head, and other voices too. When the David situation becomes a crisis, Jared can't ignore his true nature any longer.

Garden of Eden by Ernest Hemingway Pdf

A sensational bestseller when it appeared in 1986, The Garden of Eden is the last uncompleted novel of Ernest Hemingway, which he worked on intermittently from 1946 until his death in 1961. Set on the Côte d'Azur in the 1920s, it is the story of a young American writer, David Bourne, his glamorous wife, Catherine, and the dangerous, erotic game they play when they fall in love with the same woman. “A lean, sensuous narrative...taut, chic, and strangely contemporary,” The Garden of Eden represents vintage Hemingway, the master “doing what nobody did better” (R.Z. Sheppard, Time).

Alien Genesis: In 1954, Ensign James Cortell wakes up from a coma with memories of an alien scientist who had visited Earth some fifty thousand years ago. Earth’s extraterrestrial visitors altered Homo sapien DNA to produce modern humans and soon, the industrialist overlords among the alien race realized that genetically altered humans offered a source of cheap labor. A galactic slave trade is born. When a mutation begins causing gigantism among some of the sapiens, Dr. Kadeya and her grandson, Ramuell, travel to Earth in order to rectify the situation. As the scientific and industrialist factions of Earth's rulers clash, Kadeya and Ramuell are caught in the middle. But behind the scenes, an even greater power is at play. Alien Exodus: In their quest to seed the cosmos with sentience, alien scientists created the first modern humans by altering Homo sapiens’ DNA. However, the alien race’s noble intentions were derailed by greed and power lust, leading to the birth of a galactic slave trade and a war that spanned multiple worlds. In the midst of this chaos, the Nefilim Project staff were forced to adopt a shocking strategy to correct the flawed genetic manipulation. Failure was not an option, but were they prepared to pay the price of success?
