Book Description
"In Dark Language, Loren Qualls discusses how the post-rebellion genre of fiction takes a critical examination of African Americans after the Civil Rights Movement, when African Americans crossed the color barrier into every aspect of American culture. Yet the question remains: Who did the slave become? The middle class. This neo-African American is born with liberties that their predecessor was not afforded. The post-rebellion genre of African American literature comes from the freedom in knowing choice, but this genre expresses the consistent anxiety, paranoia and struggle for an identity and way of expression. A characteristic that differentiates this genre from other periods in African American history is its detachment from traditional icons and ideologies of African American culture. The generation that perpetuates this characteristic does not exhibit the same rudiment in religious sacrament or a common commitment to ideals of equality. Although African Americans have been bound by the goal of liberty of the individual, they fail in attempts at establishing group identification through any other mass movement or politics. The genre examines the African American being exploited and exploiting themselves and exploiting others all based on the concept of race."--BOOK JACKET.

It is eye-opening, challenging, and an absolute must for believers everywhere to read. -Cindy Jacobs, Generals International Cindy McGill was born as a prophetic evangelist to bring God's healing light into the darkest places, where hearts are confused, offended, and hurting, yet still seeking for real truth and godly answers, just in the wrong places. Cindy gives the necessary nuts and bolts to approaching the unbeliever with words of wisdom straight from the Father's heart of love. -Dr. Barbie L. Breathitt, best-selling author Cindy McGill knows how to reach those that seem unreachable, those who are looking for spiritual connection, and those who are completely lost and broken.

Cindy McGill willingly and regularly goes into the dark places on Earth and ministers to those greatly affected or caught by the enemy himself. She has made it her cause to rescue the perishing! -Steve Shultz, THE ELIJAH LIST The first time I heard Cindy McGill share how she was able to effectively bring the gospel to hearts that seem so dark and unreachable, I was undone. She holds a key that God chose to give her, which can access the heart of a person in the darkest of places! -Jenny Donnelly, Tetelestai Ministries, Her Voice Movement, Collective Church, Portland, Oregon
Powers of Darkness

Category : Fiction

Pages : 458
Book Description
Powers of Darkness is an incredible literary discovery: In 1900, Icelandic publisher and writer Valdimar à?smundsson set out to translate Bram Stoker’s world-famous 1897 novel Dracula. Called Makt Myrkranna (literally, “Powers of Darkness†?), this Icelandic edition included an original preface written by Stoker himself. Makt Myrkranna was published in Iceland in 1901 but remained undiscovered outside of the country until 1986, when Dracula scholarship was astonished by the discovery of Stoker’s preface to the book. However, no one looked beyond the preface and deeper into à?smundsson’s story.In 2014, literary researcher Hans de Roos dove into the full text of Makt Myrkranna, only to discover that à?smundsson hadn’t merely translated Dracula but had penned an entirely new version of the story, with all new characters and a totally re-worked plot. The resulting narrative is one that is shorter, punchier, more erotic, and perhaps even more suspenseful than Stoker’s Dracula. Incredibly, Makt Myrkranna has never been translated or even read outside of Iceland until now.Powers of Darkness presents the first ever translation into English of Stoker and à?smundsson’s Makt Myrkranna. With marginal annotations by de Roos providing readers with fascinating historical, cultural, and literary context; a foreword by Dacre Stoker, Bram Stoker’s great-grandnephew and bestselling author; and an afterword by Dracula scholar John Edgar Browning, Powers of Darkness will amaze and entertain legions of fans of Gothic literature, horror, and vampire fiction.
