The Summer of Pomba Gira
Author: Oleander Main
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1469107546
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 153
Book Description
He started to play a soft, warm tune that reminded him of the statue. Romantic, edgy, waiting for someone to come. He could see her there, as a real woman under a streetlight on a rainy night, waiting for love. Wasn?t that what they all wanted? Evaline put the final flourishes on her artwork and held it up for him to see. Her image was more confident and alive, with a cynical little smile that reminded him more of Evaline than the statue. He shrugged it off, didn?t all artists put something of themselves in their work? ?Maybe she?s an artist,? he said casually, nodding to the statue. ?What should I entitle it? Sad lady with a rose?? Jonah pointed to the base of the statue. The Summer of Pomba Gira is a paradigm shifting novel about two Chicago families who encounter one another in crisis. A story of relationships, it weaves the lives of those struggling with family conflict and addiction with the influence of spiritual intercessions and transformative moments. Author royalties from your purchase of The Summer of Pomba Gira will be donated to two American Indian organizations whose express purpose is in improving the lives of community members and students through enrichment and opportunities.

The Taste of Blood
Author: Jim Wafer
Publisher: University of Pennsylvania Press
ISBN: 0812203860
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
Enter the fascinating world of the Condomble regions of Brazil, where interaction between spirits and human is considered an everyday occurrence. Jim Wafer uncovers the social life, rituals, folklore, and engaging personalities of the villagers of Jacari, among whom trances, sorcery, and spirit possession demonstrate the coexistence of different kinds of reality. This ethnography is intriguing not only because of the originality of its approach to the more enigmatic aspects of another culture but also because it uses insights gained from participation in that culture to reflect on the paradoxes inherent in the writer's own culture, and in the human condition in general.
