Book Description
Death the Door, Music a Key is an invitation to join a journey that is not always easy, but might just alter the way you think about how you live your life. The journey begins in the fragile moments just before life ends, as we sit beside the deathbed and seek to understand this sacred process through the eyes of a harpist. This book of stories tells of ordinary people in the midst of extraordinary moments: people experiencing grief, loss and the anticipation of death. For the most part, however, it is the story of the author, who followed a calling to sit with the dying and share her music. It paints a picture of the work that I do as a harpist who plays intuitive music at the bedside, the restorative qualities of the harp, and the gift that it brings many. It is my hope that through telling these stories, not only will the lives of those who I have played for be honoured, but also their death. It is my hope that their story will serve as a reminder to others that this experience does not have to be frightening, though it requires acceptance, and acceptance requires courage.This acceptance of death can be rarely found, and when it is, it is unmistakable, for their peace seems to permeate everything and everyone around them.

Book Description
This is the first comprehensive historical analysis of how black music and musicians have been represented in the fiction of African American writers. It also examines how music and musicians in fiction have exemplified the sensibilities of African Americans and provided paradigms for an African American literary tradition. The fictional representation of African American music by black authors is traced from the nineteenth century (William Wells Brown, Martin Delany, Pauline E. Hopkins, Paul Laurence Dunbar) through the early twentieth century and the Harlem Renaissance (James Weldon Johnson, Langston Hughes, Claude McKay, Zora Neale Hurston) to the 1940s and 50s (Richard Wright, Ann Petry, James Baldwin, Ralph Ellison) and the 1960s and the Black Arts Movement (Margaret Walker, William Melvin Kelley, Leroi Jones/Amiri Baraka, Henry Dumas). In the century between Brown and Baraka, the representation of music in black fiction went through a dramatic metamorphosis. Music occupied a representative role in African American culture from which writers drew ideas and inspiration. The music provided a way out of a limited situation by offering a viable option to the strictures of racism. Individuals who overcome these limitations then become role models in the struggle toward equality. African American musical forms-for both artist and audience-also offerd a way of looking at the world, survival, and resistance. The black musician became a ritual leader. This study delineates how black writers have captured the spirit of the music that played such a pivotal role in African American culture.

Book Description
After fourteen long years, Meri’s family is whole again, but her life has become stranger than ever. For starters, Meri’s mother took her and her brother, Kevin, down to Kilstiffen, the sunken city of which her grandfather is the king. Not only is Meri the heiress of Kilstiffen, her grandfather expects her to act the part. Worse, those who live below don’t trust surface dwellers, including Meri’s father. As if all of that wasn’t stressful enough, school is starting up again with a new headmaster, there’s a new boy in town who won’t leave Meri alone, and Sister Mary Katherine isn’t allowed to teach her literature classes any longer. Despite all of that, Meri also has Aodhan, her dear friend who’s now become something more. As they navigate their new, closer relationship, Meri learns of more threats cropping up. Another sea kingdom has developed an interest in Kilstiffen, and Meri and her brother unwittingly get wrapped up in their schemes. Add to that the appearance of a collector of souls and a fairy that can seduce females with a touch, and Meri’s quiet fishing village starts resembling a fairy tale gone wrong. To top it off, the Master of the Dead is in town, and he wants to reclaim his home: Tech Duinn, the legendary house of the dead. The last time he had access to Tech Duinn, the streets ran red with the blood of his victims. Meri’s always believed that with Aodhan at her side, they could do anything—but how can they withstand a host of threats that bring them right to Death’s Door?
