MEENA ALI'S extended family—The Strongs—are filled with couples who are in love, but she can't seem to move past the break-up of her parents that was caused by an affair. Passion? She enjoys it. Love? She's tried her best to avoid it…until she meets ARMSTRONG MANN. This charmer with a big smile, and even bigger arms with which to hold her, is simply hard to resist. Still, she is hesitant to commit leading to their break-up. When her "Mann-Mann" is in a car accident out of town and comes home with amnesia—not remembering her or the love they shared—she is forced to realize losing him was a mistake. He has with him a sexy nurse in tow who claims to have nothing but his best interest at heart as he struggles to remember his life. Wanting the nurse gone and the affection Armstrong once had for her returned, Meena digs in for the good fight to ensure she is able to rekindle their flame and welcome back the man she loves into her life.

Publisher: Semiotext(e)
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
Witty, sarcastic, and sensuous, Twin Time: or, how death befell me tells the story of Mona, who, upon her father's death in Los Angeles, decides to set off in search of her long-lost twin brother, given away as an infant. With her father's ashes as a guide of dubious reliability, Mona embarks upon a quest that takes her into a forest where she's confronted by - among other beings - a band of Nordic men, her Chinese doppelganger, a lascivious giant, and a pack of feral children. Along the way Mona recounts her parents' past as she imagines it, a romantic tale of love and rescue set in a fabulist, idealized Mexico - a dreamy place that only vaguely resembles the harsh quotidian realities of the 1960s Mexico City her parents inhabited. When Mona finds her brother at last, she learns that he grew up in London with their mother - who had supposedly (or so Mona had been told) died in childbirth - and her parents' story is thrown into further disarray. By the end of the journey, all Mona's received ideas of home, motherhood, magic realism, and miscegenation have been overturned.

Book Description
Tanya is no ordinary girl. She can see fairies. But not the fairies we imagine. Evil fairies who cast spells on her, rousing her from her sleep and propelling her out of bed. At wit's end with her daughter's inexplicable behavior, Tanya's mother sends her away to live with her grandmother at Elvesden Manor, a secluded countryside mansion on the outskirts of a peculiar Essex town. There is plenty to explore, as long as Tanya stays away from Hangman's Wood- a vast stretch of forest, full of catacombs and notorious for people losing their lives. Fifty years ago a girl vanished in the woods, a girl Tanya's grandmother will not speak of. As Tanya learns more about this girl, she finds herself dangerously close to vanishing into the fairy realm forever. Debut author Michelle Harrison weaves an intricate mystery into a beautiful and haunting fantasy that captures a rich world of fairy lore where only the color red can offer protection.

Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Works Volume II
Author: Marc Weidenbaum
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1623567637
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 143
Book Description
Extravagantly opaque, willfully vaporous - Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Works Volume II, released by the estimable British label Warp Records in 1994, rejuvenated ambient music for the Internet Age that was just dawning. In the United States, it was Richard D. James's first full length on Sire Records (home to Madonna and Depeche Mode) under the moniker Aphex Twin; Sire helped usher him in as a major force in music, electronic or otherwise. Faithful to Brian Eno's definition of ambient music, Selected Ambient Works Volume II was intentionally functional: it furnished chill out rooms, the sanctuaries amid intense raves. Choreographers and film directors began to employ it to their own ends, and in the intervening decades this background music came to the fore, adapted by classical composers who reverse-engineered its fragile textures for performance on acoustic instruments. Simultaneously, “ambient” has moved from esoteric sound art to central tenet of online culture. This book contends that despite a reputation for being beatless, the album exudes percussive curiosity, providing a sonic metaphor for our technologically mediated era of countless synchronized nanosecond metronomes.
