Book Description
Allura’s life is a testament to the strength and resilience of cross-cultural educated Middle Eastern women in the modern age, who are railing against a life that makes little sense, with all its twists and turns. Her compelling emotional journey is based on true stories of extraordinary women who are wrongly conceived by the outside world as “spoilt.” A tower of strength and energy, her enthusiasm to challenge life’s obstacles and temptations reflects some of the mind-blowing hardships some women experience. Bound by passion, linked by need – she is compelled to stand on her two feet early in life. Having a first-hand experience of the real world, Allura’s reclusive and vulnerable character turned into bold, courageous, resolute, fiery and tempestuous. Social constraints, family upheavals and unexpected tragedies are just among a few things that force Allura to make life changing choices of her own, which is when her whole world begins to unravel. Inspired by a true story.

Pages : 177
Book Description
Allura Peterson always thought she knew how her life was going to play out. She'd seen it hundreds of times. Turn eighteen, meet mate, move out, start her life. It was almost a step by step everyone had repeated to her throughout her life. Little did she know Fate and the Moon Goddess had other plans for her life. Her mate was in love with another...and wanted nothing to do with her at all. Rejection was not done with a mere few words and tears. It was an extensive process, a medicine, a ceremony, an elixir that would rip your soul from your mate's. Rejections were not common and often never successful. Madness and death were popular outcomes. Only one person had ever survived the process, and he was about to turn Allura's world upside down. Elias Wright needs a mate. No, not his destined mate. She rejected him for a fling she claimed was true love. Now he had to look toward the future, and that meant a Luna for his people. Allura is smart, sexy, and everything a male could ask for. His cousin's destined mate had her own gravitational pull that called to his soul. But Elias wasn't the only one who had his eyes on Allura. A war is coming, and Allura is in the center of it all. Question is, will she save the world, or will she help destroy it?

Sicilian Elements in Andrea Camilleri's Narrative Language
Author: Cinzia Russi
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 168393279X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
Sicilian Elements in Andrea Camilleri’s Narrative Language examines Camilleri’s unique linguistic repertoire and techniques over his career as a novelist. It focuses on the intensification of Sicilian linguistic features in Camilleri’s narrative works, in particular features pertaining to the domains of sounds and grammar, since these have been marginalized in linguistic-centered research on the evolution of Camilleri’s narrative language and remain overall understudied. Through a systematic comparative analysis of the distribution patterns of selected Sicilian features in a selection of Camilleri’s historical novels and novels of the Montalbano series, the author identifies the individual features that have become most widespread and the lexical items that are targeted with highest frequency and consistency. The results of the analysis show that in the earlier novels, Sicilian features are rather sparse and can be attributed to linguistic situational functionality; that is, they function as indices of salient, distinctive aspects of topics, settings, events/situations, and characters. Conversely, in the latest novels, Sicilian elements pervade the entire novels and the texts are written almost entirely in Camilleri’s own Sicilian, vigatese, so that Sicilian is stripped of any linguistic situational functionality.
