Book Description
Ever Rising, Ever Falling is a theological-fantasy action drama about Hansel, the deadliest assassin alive-and perhaps the best fighter on Earth; yet all this time he didn't know that he was supposed to be fighting for God. His confrontation with his destiny throws him into the center of the greatest conflict of all time; where God and Satan clash in a battle of wills and power that has existed since the dawn of creation. The novel's landscape is rich with the characterizations of legendary and powerful beings ranging from infamous archangels, to a rogues gallery of villains, to the personification of God Himself in His three persons. Hansel's transformation into Jsariel the 'Fist of God' leads him down paths that no other man has ever walked before; as he navigates duty and redemption with the constant threat of evil seeking to destroy him.

Rise in the Fall
Author: Ana Božičević
Publisher: Birds Llc
ISBN: 9780982617786
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 74
Book Description
Ana Božičević's second full-length poetry collection is a revolutionary book and an ars poetica for the polis in which she excludes nothing. Navigating literary history, gender, sexuality, economics, family and friends, she is at ease employing both the universal political statement and the lyric "I." A Croatian émigré, Božičević approaches the English language with a playful objectivity, bouncing back and forth from the conversational to the grand: "This is the whitest shit / I've ever written" she notes in her half-myth "About Nietzsche." Her critique of our time and place is at once empathetic and crude, tender and grotesque. Lucky for us, "beauty [wins] in all its casual terror and pain." Ana Božičević was born in Zagreb, Croatia. She emigrated to the United States in 1997 and lives in New York City. Stars of the Night was her first book of poems.

And Still I Rise
Author: Maya Angelou
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 030780206X
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 65
Book Description
Maya Angelou’s unforgettable collection of poetry lends its name to the documentary film about her life, And Still I Rise, as seen on PBS’s American Masters. Pretty women wonder where my secret lies. I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size But when I start to tell them, They think I’m telling lies. I say, It’s in the reach of my arms, The span of my hips, The stride of my step, The curl of my lips. I’m a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That’s me. Thus begins “Phenomenal Woman,” just one of the beloved poems collected here in Maya Angelou’s third book of verse. These poems are powerful, distinctive, and fresh—and, as always, full of the lifting rhythms of love and remembering. And Still I Rise is written from the heart, a celebration of life as only Maya Angelou has discovered it. “It is true poetry she is writing,” M.F.K. Fisher has observed, “not just rhythm, the beat, rhymes. I find it very moving and at times beautiful. It has an innate purity about it, unquenchable dignity. . . . It is astounding, flabbergasting, to recognize it, in all the words I read every day and night . . . it gives me heart, to hear so clearly the caged bird singing and to understand her notes.”
