My Nana's Voice
Author: Alicia McMahon
Publisher: Bookpatch LLC
ISBN: 9781642544688
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
Protagonist and first person narrator, Alicia McMahon begins her memoir later in her life with a description of her vision to produce a tribute book for her ailing Nana Murphy. Her Nana still lived in the village she grew up in, Foynes, County Limerick, Ireland. This leads to a very poignant conversation Alicia has with her Nana a few months later. Alicia then explains how life was growing up in a little Parrish in Ireland and shares her stories from hardships to shenanigans. By the time Alicia is 18 years old, she finds herself leaving Ireland due to a recession and brings us on her journey to the United States. Once in the U.S. she shares terrifying situations that she experiences as a young mother of two and how her "Crone Voice" has guided her throughout tough situations in her life there. Alicia's story is unusual in that, at one point in time she went from being homeless in a battered women's shelter with her two young daughters to working directly on Bill Gates personal CEO Summit, all within a short period of time. Throughout her journey, she helps the reader understand how she developed her own understanding of intuition (she calls it her Crone Voice) and how that aided her through her story. At the end of each chapter, Alicia shares a pertinent quote that reflects her strength/thoughts of that time in her life. After Alicia raised her two Daughters (Seánalee and Brennalynn) into adulthood, she now finds herself in an emotional quandary.

A Grammar of Nese
Author: Lana Grelyn Takau
Publisher: ANU Press
ISBN: 1760465569
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
Nese is a dying Oceanic language spoken on the island of Malekula, in northern Vanuatu. This book, based on first-hand fieldwork data, and without adhering to any particular syntactic framework, presents a synchronic grammatical description of Nese’s phonology and syntax. Despite being on the verge of extinction, with fewer than 20 living speakers, the language displays intriguing properties—including but not exclusive to the cross-linguistically rare apicolabial phonemes, interesting vowel-raising patterns in some word classes, and a discontinuous negation relationship that is obligatorily expressed with the irrealis mood marker. This book will probably be the last work published on Nese.
