Book Description
Aysel Valencia works at a Chicago fertility clinic and is a straight shooter not only with her arrows at the archery range but also with her no-nonsense personality. The Latina just turned 29 and could have never predicted how she would spend her birthday. Of all places, amid the geeks and freaks attending an anime festival, she has an intense sexual encounter with Courtney Kelly, a man she'd just met. But Courtney won't let it end with just a one-night stand. A journalist, Courtney soon finds a place in Aysel's heart and also uncovers a news story from Aysel's past that could skyrocket his career. When Aysel opens herself up to Courtney, she has the chance to take aim at other life questions she's been avoiding. On the surface there's her static career, relationships and ambitions, and underneath there's the emotional turmoil of her past that's frozen her in place. When Aysel's long-gone brother, Cassio, returns shortly after she meets Courtney, her loyalty to her family threatens to ruin her humble existence and budding relationship. Will Aysel be able to figure out what she's doing wrong, or will she lose her first real chance at happiness? Read Aysel's Arrow - the journey will make you laugh, surprise and move you.

Apprehend
Author: Elizabeth Robinson
Publisher: Fence Books
ISBN:
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
"Taking her cues from folktale, legend, and fable, Elizabeth Robinson has reinvented the 'uses of enchantment.' Robinson calibrates the motion between fear, apprehension, and knowledge--comprehension at the crux of human imagining. She shows, with a minimalist's precision and a logician's attention to linguistic morphology, how the often bleak agenda of the real capitulates to the moral restitution of the true; how our need to tell stories enjambs faith and enlightenment. This is a work of uncanny persuasion." -- Ann Lauterbach
