Book Description
Darwins Theory of Evolution is still only a theory because the link between our ancestors could never be drawn to us directly. What we do know is that we took a leap in the evolutionary chain and to this day no one knows why. Hints of what could have happened can be found sprinkled throughout history, and in the fi rst installment of Velvet Bloodlines you will meet the immortals that changed humanity for all time. You will follow Eleora on her heart-breaking journey as she discovers memories of lives she doesnt remember living along the coastlines of Virginia Beach. She is joined by Sky, the original immortal, King of the crowned blood type known as the Kitra. As his kingdom is falling he struggles to prevent history from repeating itself in a tragic loop. You will meet different fi gures in our worlds history freshly realized and reborn into the present. Are we doomed to repeat our mistakes or will mankind be offered its second chance? A new threat emerges; as mankind was never able to evolve naturally an infectious disease is altering the human blood types back into their primitive form. The rise of the Rajini marks the beginning of a new war and new tragedy. Once the outbreak begins no man, woman, or child will be safe not even in death will there be peace.

Notions of Identity, Diaspora, and Gender in Caribbean Women's Writing
Author: B. Mehta
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 0230100503
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
Notions of Identity, Diaspora, and Gender in Caribbean Women's Writing uses a unique four-dimensional lens to frame questions of diaspora and gender in the writings of women from Martinique, Guadeloupe, and Haiti. These divergent and interconnected perspectives include violence, trauma, resistance, and expanded notions of Caribbean identity. In these writings, diaspora represents both a wound created by slavery and Indian indenture and the discursive praxis of defining new identities and cultural possibilities. These framings of identity provide inclusive and complex readings of transcultural Caribbean diasporas, especially in terms of gender and minority cultures.

He was jealous that Misty was getting the attention he wanted from Carla. Looking angrily at him she said, "My mom hasn't been dead very long and already you are about to replace her with that gold digger." Well, guess maybe this is where you should spank me . that is if you think you're man enough! With a gun and liquid courage, he might just go on into the headhunter's village and, as he put it, "Scare the hell out of them!" Passengers and crew were thrown into the raging, rocky hell that was the Orinoco River there.
