Book Description
A mortal fated to die and the god who’ll do anything to save her. Adored for her unparalleled beauty, Psyche unwittingly incurs the wrath of the gods. Ensnared by prophecy, she finds herself entwined in a cosmic vendetta. To avert her family's impending ruin, she is betrothed to a fearsome winged creature. Transported to an otherworldly palace crafted especially for her, Psyche soon uncovers a startling truth—her monstrous husband harbors a heart more benevolent than his frightful visage suggests. A friendship blossoms, and though veiled in anonymity, love blooms within her for the god who has defied her expectations. But when she disobeys his one rule, the bond between them is shattered. Having experienced genuine love in the arms of Eros, and desperate to be reunited, she embarks on an odyssey fraught with peril, navigating impossible challenges ordained by a goddess who harbors the deepest disdain. Escape into a tale woven in the threads of destiny, where the heart of a mortal beats with the resilience to defy even the divine. Mistaken identity, secrets, and a journey into the Underworld to prove that heart and soul belong together. The Head and the Heart is a reimagining that turns the spellbinding myth of Eros and Psyche into living color on the page.

The Musakanya Papers
Author: Valentine MusakanyaPublisher: African Books Collective
ISBN: 9982997238
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
Valentine Musakanya played a leading role in Zambia's first post-independence government as Secretary to the Cabinet and Head of the Civil Service. He was subsequently a Member of Parliament, a Government Minister and Governor of the Bank of Zambia. Musakanya is however better known today as one of those convicted of the 1980 coup attempt against the one-party state of Kenneth Kaunda's United National Independence Party (UNIP) government. Although Musakanya was subsequently acquitted of involvement in the coup, questions have persisted: was Musakanya involved in the coup attempt? If so, why did he become involved? This volume, making Musakanya's writings available in public for the first time, provides a glimpse into one of Zambia's most brilliant minds. Musakanya's memoirs chart his personal and intellectual journey from a childhood in rural Northern Province and the mining township of Wusakile, to outstanding educational success and a glittering career in the civil service of newly independent Zambia. They describe his significant achievements, but also his disillusionment with the politicisation of state structures, the growth of patronage and corruption, and the growing authoritarianism and centralisation of political power in the hands of the President. Musakanya provides an insider's insight into the failings of post-independence government, articulating his personal disillusionment with UNIP and Kaunda, and explaining his involvement with those accused alongside him of involvement in the 1980 coup attempt. Musakanya describes in detail his arrest and interrogation at the hands of the intelligence services, and the publication sheds substantial new light on the organisation of the coup and the motivations of those involved. This volumes is the first in a planned series of publications which will place the writings of Valentine Musakanya in the public domain, in Zambia and internationally.
