Hurma
Author: Ali Al-Muqri
Publisher: Darf Publishers Ltd.
ISBN: 1850772827
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 141
Book Description
Denied her voice, even the freedom to ask questions, al-Muqri's ill-fated heroine remains nameless. As a female, she is simply a 'Hurma' - literally 'sanctity', an entity to be protected from violation. Growing up in the stifling and oppressive atmosphere of her childhood home in the Yemeni capital of Sana'a, Hurma's story intersects with those of her elder siblings, Lula and Abd al-Raqeeb. Lula's overt sexuality is a foil to Hurma's staunch conservatism. For Lula sex offers a form of resistance and empowerment, although one that will ultimately result in her destruction. In contrast, their brother, Abd al-Raqeeb undergoes an overnight transformation from an avowed socialist, contemptuous of his father's piety, to a religious extremist; a conversion triggered by sexual jealousy over his new wife. Hurma's passionless marriage to a man whose impotency is a cruel reflection of her inability to shape her reality is the first in a catalogue of farcical disappointments. She journeys across the Middle East: from Yemen to a militant training camp in Sudan and onto Afghanistan to join the Jihadist cause. On her eventual return home, ever crueller twists of fate await her as her search for spiritual and sexual fulfilment leads to disastrous consequences. Turning the classic coming of age story on its head, Ali al-Muqri's fresh and darkly humorous narrative takes an irreverent swipe at the profound hypocrisy that hides behind fanatical religious dogma. With its confessional tone, Hurma's direct and unflinching account is as painful as it is comic.

My Song for You

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
In a poignant romance from the author of This One Moment (“Hot, intense, and filled with emotion.”—Rachel Harris), the rock stars of Pushing Limits have hit the big time. But fame gets tough when love presents a fork in the road. At twenty-one, Jared Leigh had been prepared to give up the life of a touring musician to be a father after getting his girlfriend pregnant. When she told him that she’d gotten an abortion, Jared was devastated. Now at least he has the groupies to keep him company—until a blast from the past rocks his world. Callie Talbert hasn’t seen her sister’s ex since high school. But after Callie bumps into Jared while she’s grocery shopping with four-year-old Logan, there’s a spark that wasn’t there before. Jared quickly realizes that her deaf “son” is the same age his own child would have been. When Jared demands to know more about Logan, Callie panics. There are things she just can’t tell him. Besides, Jared’s a bad-boy rocker, not a dependable father figure. He’ll move on to his next gig soon enough . . . right? Trouble is, Jared refuses to be pushed away, and the more quality time he spends with Logan, the more he’s captivated by the woman Callie has become. When the truth is revealed, Jared only hopes that the three of them have what it takes to become a real family. Praise for My Song for You “Romantic angst powers this fast-paced novel, and readers will return to the series to learn more about the enigmatic side characters whose own stories are waiting to be told.”—Publishers Weekly “My Song for You will break your heart and put it back together again. Loved, loved, loved!”—Melissa West, USA Today bestselling author of No Kissing Allowed “Sexy and sweet, smart and romantic. This is my favorite Stina Lindenblatt book to date. But it’s four-year-old, hearing-impaired Logan who stole the show—and my heart.”—Christina Lee, author of the Between the Breaths series “The author has an amazing and deep connection with her characters. . . . I loved every single page.”—Extreme Damage Blog “From the first to the last page—greatness unfolded.”—Ellie Is Uhm . . . A Bookworm “Filled with romance, misunderstandings, lies and a whole lot of heat . . . [My Song for You] has everything to satisfy the romance itch in all of us.”—Twin Spin “Six stars—Stina Lindenblatt has a skill to write heroes with some depth like few can.”—Collectors of Book Boyfriends & Girlfriends “I loved this story. It sucked me in and held my interest from the get-go. It moved at a good rate, had ups and downs and realistic situations, and the supporting characters were just as strong as the main ones.”—Words We Love By “My Song for You is a sweet and sentimental read that I consider an easy read—the story flows along so well that you’ll be swept through the weeks that Callie, Logan and Jared redefine what a family is and create their own little safe haven.”—Once Upon A Page “This is a sweet contemporary romance that will pull at your heart and bring tears to your eyes. But inevitably it will make you smile!”—TBQ’s Book Palace “A really good, entertaining read and I enjoyed it a lot. I'd definitely recommend it.”—Smitten with Reading Includes an excerpt from another Loveswept title.
