Tales of Love, Lust and Longing by Ajit Chaudhuri Pdf

This selection of seven novelettes has one commonality – it depicts a man’s view of a man’s world. Otherwise, it is varied – the novelettes are set in rural (‘Parita’) and urban (mostly Delhi) locations in India and abroad (‘The Double Bore’ is set in Canada and also describes Afghanistan); they describe relationships with spouses and lovers (‘The Thunderbolt’, ‘The Obsession’), with one’s children (‘Parita’), with sports (‘Lalaji’), between friends (‘The Friday Evening Get-Together’), and those of a more temporary nature (‘The King of Lust’); and they are written over a period of 25 years (and retain the original writing style, with minor editions for modern day political correctness). The novelettes provide glimpses of an emerging India at and around the turn of the century, with its rising middle class, its changing attitudes, and its conflict between tradition and modernity, as well as the pathways by which young (and not so young) people negotiate these.

Love, Lust, Longing and Truth by Jennifer Kite-Powell Pdf

Love, Lust, Longing & Truth is the first book by Southern writer and poet Jennifer Kite-Powell with artwork by New York artist, Chantal Calato. The book is a collection of poems from the author's experiences living and traveling in Europe since 2009. The poems are short, short stories that cross the mutable lines between love, lust, longing, and truth in our lives. From one line verbal bricks like Condensed Milk, the digital dystopia love poem Artificial Intelligence and modern odes, Open Apology to Bukowski and DH Lawrence Hate Mosquitos, Kite-Powell bares all and lets you into her world with abandon, hiding nothing from the reader. New York-based artist, Chantal Calato's art for the book, brings the poems to life in original mixed media works that show the frenetic nature of emotion.

Legacies and ghosts from the past. All are at the heart of this contemporary tale.

LUST LIES and LOVE by John Corral Pdf

These are stories about love. Not love that is sweet and tender, sublime and true, and has as little in common with reality as unicorns playing in a garden. Things don't always go as people want them to, and, in particular, when it comes to love. A lot of bad things happen instead, things that people may be ashamed of, or worse. But there is also love in these stories. Some of them, anyway. There is the love of long-term couples, there is the love of newly discovered lovers, and there is the love of friends. There is affection -between lovers, between colleagues, between strangers encountered on the street. There is respect: for love, for desire, for scars, for the complicated places where love and desire overlap. Above all, there is respect for love itself. That to strive for love, and have it -even for a moment, is reason enough to continue to seek it.

The Scarlet Cord by Lindsay Hardin Freeman,Karen N. Canton Pdf

The Scarlet Cord: Conversations With God s Chosen Women tells the story of biblical women in a new way, drawing the reader further down her spiritual path and closer to Christ. And here is why: for too long, women in the Bible have been demonized, sanctified or simply misunderstood, leaving highly stereotyped figures in their wake. As a result, passionate, faithful and bright individuals, from Eve to Ruth to Mary Magdalene, have lost meaning for many contemporary Christians and non-Christians alike. Here, through storytelling and artwork, twelve compelling women of the Bible invite readers to step further into the sacred circle of God s people, deepening their faith and joy in all of creation. That circle offers more than peace. It offers health, healing, and the knowledge that other women have also trod broken and jagged paths in their search for wholeness. By taking this step, the reader will discover that challenges experienced by biblical women are not so different from her own, including infertility, warfare, hunger, old age, grief and sexual conflict.

I, You, and the Word “God” by Sarah Zhang Pdf

I, You, and the Word “God” introduces the approach of lyrical ethics, inspired by Emmanuel Levinas’s ethical-phenomenological philosophy. Through the optics of lyrical ethics, the reader discovers how the ancient erotic poems of the Song of Songs bear ethical and theological significance for contemporary readers. Levinas’s intertwined concepts—oneself qua sensibility, otherness perceived through responsibility, and transcendence embodied in one’s love for the other—reveal themselves as lyrical colors woven into the fabric of Song 4:1–7, 5:2–8, and 8:6. More importantly, Levinas’s understanding that poetic language breaks the tautology of logocentric discourse and gestures to the outside of consciousness provides the theoretical ground for the listener to solicit meaningfulness from the Song. Through this lyrical reading of the selected poetic units, the book demonstrates that the traditional interpretive methods of representative description, narrative paraphrase, and thematic distillation fail to encounter the otherness of poetry. In contrast, lyrical ethics pays attention to that which transcends consciousness: the awakening of the reader’s subjectivity, the saying underlying the said, the sound of the sense, and the invisibility of the visible. The Song so caressed reveals in human love the purposelessly purposive encounter with God.
