No More Sunday Mornings
Author: Cheryl Joyner-Clark
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1449019994
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 366
Book Description
"Put your hands together, everybody say Sunday Morning!" No! The Blackwell's want nothing more to do with Sunday Mornings or God which is not the way Ruth Blackwell raised her children. Ruth trained up her children in the church but when she died suddenly from cancer it seemed everything she taught them died with her. She left behind three precious bibles and a prayer that they will one day find their way back to God. It is true every man when he is driven away it is of his own lust and entice. Each Blackwell is driven by something. Jade, the youngest, is driven by love and surely she should be able to find it at church? When she finds herself alone and pregnant after the death of her mother, it is the church that cast her out like the woman wearing the scarlet letter. Determined to never return again she seeks for the love that's been missing in the arms of a man only to find rejection and another child. Her only source of freedom now is the club life. No longer cleaving to what she was taught but now must make her own choices her own way. Alexandria, the middle child, is driven by bitterness of the past and resolves to better her own life. Seeking for fame as a fashion designer, she is determined to make her mark in the world. She doesn't need any distractions to stand in her way. Not her needy sister, looser brother, not fine Trent Tyler, and definitely not God. Jasper, the oldest, is driven by riches but his search keeps landing him in jail. All he could remember while sitting behind prison walls was what his mother used to say "You can't hide from God." He's wasn't hiding he just wanted to do what he wanted to do? Free from prison he vows to do it the legal way but definitely not God's way. How long will the Blackwell's stop seeking a legacy and embrace the one Ruth left behind? How long will they continue to cry, No More Sunday Mornings?

A Dream
Author: Felicja Kruszewska
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136475060
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
The translation of Felicja Kruszewska's A Dream introduces a major play by a twentieth-century female playwright to the English-speaking world. On March 7, 1927 A Dream - a large-scale expressionistic drama by an unknown poet - burst on the Polish theatrical scene in a dazzling debut production by the young actor Edmund Wiercinski, who would become one of the outstanding directors of his time. The play's hallucinatory visions of the rise of fascism and the heroine's longing for a providential savior on a white horse spoke directly to Polish audiences about their deepest anxieties. During the next two years A Dream received three additional stagings and became the subject of lively debate and controversy. The play, which has been successfully revived in 1974, is an outstanding example of European expressionism. The volume also contains An Excursion to the Museum, by the contemporary Polish poet, playwright, and short-story writer Tadeusz Rozewicz. A disturbing account of an utterly mundane visit to Auschwitz, the tale is a brilliant example of the playwright's technique of poetic collage.
