Book Description
Widely considered the most complex of human emotions, romantic love both shapes and reflects core societal values, its expression offering a window into the cultural zeitgeist. In popular culture, romantic love has long been a mainstay of film, television and music. The gap between fictitious narratives of love and real-life ones is, however, usually wide--American's expectations of romance and affection often transcend reality. Tracing the history of love in American culture, this book offers insight into both the national character and emotional nature.

Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
A LESSER LIGHT TO RULE THE NIGHT A Lesser Light To Rule The Night is the first of many books of poetry forthcoming. In it, Noble sets out to explain, through poetry, how God made the sun, the great light to rule the day and how He made a lesser light to rule the night. It applies in our daily living when its day in our lives the sun shines so bright. In the darkest hour of night, God yet provides us with a lesser light. When Israel wondered in the wilderness, God went before them in a pillar of a cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night. Regardless of how hopeless situations seem, there is always an illumination of hope! The light of God's Word gives hope for all seasons. When in need of healing, deliverance, protection, guidance and strength, know it is always available! About the Author Noble Jones, a native of Pine Bluff, AR and an aspiring poet, who listens, writes and meditates on scriptures according to the Word of God. Shortly after graduating from high school, Noble made St. Louis, MO his home, where he attended a community college. There he met his wife of fourteen years, Yolanda and now has one child, Noble II. At an early age, God inspired Noble's poetry writing with His most Infamous Words of encouragement, spirituality, healing and holiness to give to His people destined to be set free and enter a new beginning!

Everything Is Illuminated
Author: Jonathan Safran Foer
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0547523785
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER. Jonathan Safran Foer's debut—"a funny, moving...deeply felt novel about the dangers of confronting the past and the redemption that comes with laughing at it, even when that seems all but impossible." (Time) With only a yellowing photograph in hand, a young man—also named Jonathan Safran Foer—sets out to find the woman who might or might not have saved his grandfather from the Nazis. Accompanied by an old man haunted by memories of the war, an amorous dog named Sammy Davis, Junior, Junior, and the unforgettable Alex, a young Ukrainian translator who speaks in a sublimely butchered English, Jonathan is led on a quixotic journey over a devastated landscape and into an unexpected past. As their adventure unfolds, Jonathan imagines the history of his grandfather’s village, conjuring a magical fable of startling symmetries that unite generations across time. As his search moves back in time, the fantastical history moves forward, until reality collides with fiction in a heart-stopping scene of extraordinary power. “Imagine a novel as verbally cunning as A Clockwork Orange, as harrowing as The Painted Bird, as exuberant and twee as Candide, and you have Everything Is Illuminated . . . Read it, and you'll feel altered, chastened—seared in the fire of something new.” — Washington Post “A rambunctious tour de force of inventive and intelligent storytelling . . . Foer can place his reader’s hand on the heart of human experience, the transcendent beauty of human connections. Read, you can feel the life beating.” — Philadelphia Inquirer
