Book Description
"Keiner bringt das Talent der Menschheit, sich selbst zu versenken, so auf den Punkt wie T. C. Boyle." Financial Times »Das war der Tag, an dem die Hyäne kam, um ihn zu holen, und es spielte keine Rolle, dass es im Süden Frankreichs überhaupt keine Hyänen gab, vor allem nicht in Pont-Saint-Esprit, sie war da und wollte ihn holen.« Dreizehn neue brillante Storys vom Meister des Genres, surreal und abgründig witzig: Sie handeln von sprechenden Drohnenautos, die ihre Passagiere auf algorithmischen Routen durch die Landschaft führen, von bodenständigen Müttern, die sich mit jungen Incel-Männern anlegen, aber auch von Spaziergängen durch den kalifornischen Regen, während die Küste von Sturzfluten verwüstet wird. Kein Autor versteht es so komisch und schonungslos, ins Herz unserer aus den Fugen geratenen Gegenwart zu stechen wie T. C. Boyle.

Book Description
The poetry within, covers over fifty years depicting the journey of a little girl, to a first kiss. Then a young woman a mother, a wife. And during this time, the heartache of betrayal, drugs, loss of lives, a prison internment and faith in God. Poems of people and attitudes. I am sure that there will be at least one poem that will touch the heart of the reader making all of this worthwhile and the only reason I have to share such personal lasting mementos of the life I’ve walked through. I share my poetry with you to let you know, you are never alone. One day I realized that what “Rod has Inspired, Deborah has Desired & through God has Acquired” the foundation of my writing began.

Book Description
Walking Between The Raindrops was written over a period of four years. My poetry collection celebrates those who walk with courage in difficult situations as well as highlighting life-changing stories from the Bible. God's plan for mankind is revealed in nature through his animals like the eagles and the transformation of the tiny caterpillar into a beautiful butterfly. I have tried to reveal in a tangible form - the reality of God and the consistency of his character. He is seen in all of his creation. His love and desire for mankind to know him is limitless. Much of the poetry has come out of personal experiences and mistakes people who have come before us have made. Mistakes are to be learned from and not to be repeated. Nevertheless, Our Creator never stops yearning for us to know and believe that he truly exists. He is all around us in every situation and event. He longs to be personally acquained with each of us. This is the message I have tried to convey through my poems.

Book Description
Walk between the Raindrops began as a creative exercise at the BMI Musical Theatre Workshops. It has grown into a show about post-war America, political and social awareness, corruption and upheaval, and through it all a vibrant sense of faith and destiny rooted in the 1950s. Four angels, formerly umpires, are called upon to affect change through the chance encounter, or the destinies, of two young persons who meet at a critical moment.

Book Description
Digital Samaritans explores rhetorical delivery and cultural sovereignty in the digital humanities. The exigence for the book is rooted in a practical digital humanities project based on the digitization of manuscripts in diaspora for the Samaritan community, the smallest religious/ethnic group of 770 Samaritans split between Mount Gerizim in the Palestinian Authority and in Holon, Israel. Based on interviews with members of the Samaritan community and archival research, Digital Samaritans explores what some Samaritans want from their diaspora of manuscripts, and how their rhetorical goals and objectives relate to the contemporary existential and rhetorical situation of the Samaritans as a living, breathing people. How does the circulation of Samaritan manuscripts, especially in digital environments, relate to their rhetorical circumstances and future goals and objectives to communicate their unique cultural history and religious identity to their neighbors and the world? Digital Samaritans takes up these questions and more as it presents a case for collaboration and engaged scholarship situated at the intersection of rhetorical studies and the digital humanities.

Book Description
Jerusalem has for centuries been known as the spiritual center for the three largest monotheistic religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Yet Jerusalem’s other-worldly transcendence is far from the daily reality of Jerusalem, a city bombarded by conflict. The battle over who owns and controls Jerusalem is intensely disputed on a global basis. Few cities rival Jerusalem in how its divisions are expressed in the political sphere and in ordinary everyday life. Jerusalem: The Spatial Politics of a Divided Metropolis is about this constellation of competing on-the-ground interests: the endless set of claims, struggles, and debates over the land, neighborhoods, and communities that make up Jerusalem. Spatial politics explain the motivations and organizing around the battle for Jerusalem and illustrate how space is a weapon in the Jerusalem struggle. These are the windows to the world of the Israel-Palestine conflict. Based on ninety interviews, years of fieldwork, and numerous Jerusalem experiences, this book depicts the groups living in Jerusalem, their roles in the conflict, and their connections to Jerusalem's development. Written for students, scholars, and those seeking to demystify the Jerusalem labyrinth, this book shows how religion, ideology, nationalism, and power underlie patterns of urban development, inequality, and conflict.
