Book Description
From a New York Times–bestseller, “a powerful tale of healing and redemption that skillfully balances supernatural horrors with spiritual uplift” (Publishers Weekly). Don Lark's cheery name belies his tragic past. When his alcoholic ex-wife killed their daughter in a car wreck, he retreated from the world. Only the prospect of putting a roof over other people's heads seems to comfort Lark, and he goes from town to town, looking for dilapidated houses he can buy, restore and resell at a profit. In Greensboro, North Carolina, Lark finds his biggest challenge yet—a huge, sturdy, gorgeous shell that's suffered almost a century of abuse at the hands of greedy landlords and transient tenants. As he sinks his teeth into this new project, Lark's new neighborhood starts to work its charms on him. He strikes up a romance with the wry real estate agent who sold him the house. His neighbors, two charming, chatty old ladies, ply him endlessly with delicious Southern cooking. Even Sylvie, the squatter Lark was once desperate to evict from the old house, is now growing on him. But when Lark unearths an old tunnel in the cellar, the house's enchantments start to turn ominous. Sylvie turns cantankerous, even dangerous. Lark embarks on a struggle for his life — and his friends'— against a house with a past even more tragic than his own. If Lark wins, he gets the kind of home and community he's always dreamed of. If he loses, all is lost. . . . “Fast-paced, magical, and full of unusual characters.” —School Library Journal

Magpies, Homebodies, and Nomads
Author: Cirilia Rose
Publisher: Abrams
ISBN: 1683355512
Category : Crafts & Hobbies
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
“Rose explores her myriad inspirations in this collection of twenty-five fashionable knitting projects that show the potential in beautiful yarn . . . marvelous.” —Library Journal Cirilia Rose is the epitome of the new knitwear designer—young, educated, curious, and excited to share her passion for all ideas knit and purl. Her attitude toward curating her own collection of designs is informed as much by travel, cultural history, and tried-and-true sourcebooks as it is by modern media and technology. In Magpies, Homebodies, and Nomads, Rose takes readers behind the scenes of her design process, showing them how she curates and organizes ideas and translates them into knitwear designs. Through twenty-five projects that fall into three categories—Magpies (accessories for the small amounts of precious yarns that knitters inevitably collect), Homebodies (garments for time spent close to home), and Nomads (garments to wear when venturing out into the world)—Rose shares her modern aesthetic and invites readers to develop their own. “So not only do we have twenty-five patterns—many of them timeless and some of them quirky—we also have a lot of attentive commentary on color selection, styling tips, and useful info on substituting yarns. This is one new book that I would highly recommend. Not only for the patterns, but especially for the spirit of the book and the thoughtful way Cirilia Rose approaches her knitting and explains her process.” —Knit and Tonic “This is a gem of a book.” —Kangath Knits “This latitude that Rose has given herself to combine disparate elements makes all her designs fresh, hip and youthful.” —My Central Jersey

What Is A Homebody, How People Become Homebodies, Why Certain People Become Homebodies, And How The Economy Is Affected By Certain People Being Homebodies

ISBN:
Category : Young Adult Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 49
Book Description
This essay sheds light on what is a homebody, explicates how people become homebodies, elucidates why certain people become homebodies, and expounds upon how the economy is affected by certain people being homebodies. Succinctly stated, a homebody is a term that refers to a person who prefers to expend the vast majority of his time at his abode. A homebody is at a high probability to be domiciled at his abode for the vast majority of his time. Furthermore, a homebody is also at a high probability to forgo becoming traveler and living a transient life. A homebody is capable of completing the vast majority of his tasks remotely without exiting his abode to do so. A homebody is able to shop for products remotely, is able to procure services remotely, is able to work real private sector jobs based on voluntary demand remotely, is able to confabulate with friends remotely, is able to partake in salubrious hobbies remotely, and is able to be pursuant of following health optimization measures at his abode. A homebody is often keen on adorning his abode to be tailored to his decorating preferences. If an abode is meticulously tailored to a homebody’s decorating preferences and if he derives euphoria from taking a gander at the items on display in his home environment that he is fond of, then it can help him to alleviate stress if doing so can divert his attention away from dwelling on stressors. From the perspective of a homebody, it can be deduced that a real estate property is perceived be far more than just a locale for a homebody to dwell in. As of October of 2024, even though it is estimated that there are about 36,677,592,320 acres of land on planet Earth, a single real estate property is the primary environment of a homebody. A homebody engages in activities, such as leisure activities and career-oriented activities, at his abode since it can be far more convenient for him to do so at his abode than for him to do so at public locales. A homebody engages in activities at his abode also because it can be significantly less noisy to do so at his abode than to do so in public locales that have ambient noise. A homebody prefers to circumvent venturing into public locales. Furthermore, a homebody also prefers to circumvent being impeded by traffic. Moreover, a homebody also prefers to circumvent waiting in long lines. A homebody also prefers to circumvent frequenting depressing environments. A homebody is often eminently content with expending the vast majority of his time at his abode in lieu of disparate locales that are outside the vicinity of his home environment. Most homebodies also prefer to circumvent being exposed to second-hand smoke, lethal household cleaning products, and other noxious substances which can severely undermine a person’s immune system health. When homebodies venture into public locales, then they are all the more vulnerable to being exposed to second-hand smoke and other noxious substances which can severely undermine a person’s immune system health. A homebody is often recalcitrant about leaving his abode for a prolonged period of time. If a homebody were to leave his abode for a prolonged period of time, then he would be unable to access the amenities that are at his abode. Furthermore, if a homebody were to leave his abode for a prolonged period of time, then he would also need to cope with the ample inconveniences that are associated with the process of attempting to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment. Attempting to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment can significantly prolonged the time that it takes a homebody to complete tasks. Attempting to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment can also render it more cumbersome for a homebody to attempt to complete tasks. Attempting to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment can also bear ample costs, such as fuel costs, oil costs, tire rotation costs, and vehicle repair costs, if a homebody were to profusely utilize his vehicle to drive to distant locales where he can attempt to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment. A homebody has a proclivity to expend the vast majority of his time at his abode since he is deterred to leave his abode for a prolonged period of time. A homebody is deterred to leave his abode for a prolonged period of time.

Race, Rights, and Recognition
Author: Dean J. Franco
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 0801464013
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
In Race, Rights, and Recognition, Dean J. Franco explores the work of recent Jewish American writers, many of whom have taken unpopular stances on social issues, distancing themselves from the politics and public practice of multiculturalism. While these writers explore the same themes of group-based rights and recognition that preoccupy Latino, African American, and Native American writers, they are generally suspicious of group identities and are more likely to adopt postmodern distancing techniques than to presume to speak for "their people." Ranging from Philip Roth's scandalous 1969 novel Portnoy's Complaint to Gary Shteyngart's Absurdistan in 2006, the literature Franco examines in this book is at once critical of and deeply invested in the problems of race and the rise of multicultural philosophies and policies in America. Franco argues that from the formative years of multiculturalism (1965-1975), Jewish writers probed the ethics and not just the politics of civil rights and cultural recognition; this perspective arose from a stance of keen awareness of the limits and possibilities of consensus-based civil and human rights. Contemporary Jewish writers are now responding to global problems of cultural conflict and pluralism and thinking through the challenges and responsibilities of cosmopolitanism. Indeed, if the United States is now correctly-if cautiously-identifying itself as a post-ethnic nation, it may be said that Jewish writing has been well ahead of the curve in imagining what a post-ethnic future might look like and in critiquing the social conventions of race and ethnicity.

Harmonic Experience
Author: W. A. Mathieu
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1620554011
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 724
Book Description
An exploration of musical harmony from its ancient fundamentals to its most complex modern progressions, addressing how and why it resonates emotionally and spiritually in the individual. W. A. Mathieu, an accomplished author and recording artist, presents a way of learning music that reconnects modern-day musicians with the source from which music was originally generated. As the author states, "The rules of music--including counterpoint and harmony--were not formed in our brains but in the resonance chambers of our bodies." His theory of music reconciles the ancient harmonic system of just intonation with the modern system of twelve-tone temperament. Saying that the way we think music is far from the way we do music, Mathieu explains why certain combinations of sounds are experienced by the listener as harmonious. His prose often resembles the rhythms and cadences of music itself, and his many musical examples allow readers to discover their own musical responses.
