Book Description
Whether chasing gophers (Sisu) or flirting with cowboys at the Buckhorn Bar (Hannah), artist Hannah Hinchman and her dog Sisu are excellent guides to some of the wildest country left in America. Treading carefully near a sandhill crane's nest, testing the ice on the river, and marveling at the seasonal influx of ducks, this pair of curious naturalists takes us into the intimate corners of western Montana, inquiring into all natural phenomena—which Hannah then captures on the page in detailed sketches, notes, and watercolors. If Annie Dillard were an artist, she might have composed a book like this. But few writers, or artists, can bring words and images together like Hannah Hinchman. Insightful, funny, and personal, she not only enables us to enter her own particular patch of the natural world, she also teaches us to see our own, bringing to her work an exceptional unity of hand, eye, and heart.

A Girl with No Name
Author: Joe Lovato
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1796033898
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
This story follows a girl from kindergarten to college. Nurturing seeds planted in the early days of memory help her through the hardships to come. The human condition is universal, and how we react to the trials of life are what makes us different. Fear, pain, and love all combine to produce the person we become. Like most of us, she was plagued by the bad and blessed by the good. Her life was marked by the limits of both. Innocence is the hallmark of the young and the anchor of a life well lived. Although they are all fictional, characters tend to take on their own lives and you follow them wherever they go. Locations were fairly accurate. The dogs were real and happy to contribute. Writing mirrors the real world and melds with imagination to try to create someone with whom we can empathize. In the end, the muse had her way.

Vagaries of a Lost World

Publisher: Strategic Book Publishing
ISBN: 1618974785

Languages : en
Pages : 71
Book Description
I love observing and analysing human nature, as it is one of the most complex creations of God. I have tried to capture these very observations into poetic form. Ravi Shankar Rajan bases his volume of poetry, Vagaries of a Lost World, on different facets of human behavior. Most of the poems describe his personal experiences and the fascinating array of people he has met in such a large country as India. In this volume, I have tried to capture strange situations and little things in life that make us laugh, cry or hate. I sincerely hope that through this work readers will experience the multitude of emotions that I have tried to elicit in this volume.
