Forbidden Bread

"[A] sunny, can-do look at intense culture shock. Debeljak makes a humorous, self-effacing guide to her own story and the only complaint I have is that I wish she’d told us more. I hope someday she gives us a sequel."—Christian Science Monitor • "Witty and warm."—Kirkus Reviews Forbidden Bread is an unusual love story that covers great territory, both geographically and emotionally. The author leaves behind a successful career as an American financial analyst to pursue Ales Debeljak, a womanizing Slovenian poet who catches her attention at a cocktail party. The story begins in New York City, but quickly migrates, along with the author, to Slovenia. As she struggles to forge an identi...

The purpose of this book is first to encourage by way of entertainment. My hope is that you find yourself having fun while being encouraged to be a better person and help others do the same. Here is a sample of what you will find inside:"Muzic is the sum of me,For I make muzic in my soul, you see.And without it, this world, it could not be,For it's found in creation and creativity.Yes, without it the world wouldn't be the same.For in love, it's muzic that often sets the heart aflame.So stop, listen,AndTake a hear around,And see where muzic can be found.In the clock that ticks,In the wind that blows,In the water that drips,In the flower that grows.In the heart that beats,In the river that flows,In the traffic in the streets,In pigeons and crows.In a baby's laugh,In a baby's cry,In a new born calf,In the wink of an eye..."If you like that, there is much more to behold...EnjoyCorky

Siblings of Soil

2023 Honorable Mention, Isis Duarte Book Prize, Haiti/ Dominican Republic section (LASA) After revolutionary cooperation between Dominican and Haitian majorities produced independence across Hispaniola, Dominican elites crafted negative myths about this era that contributed to anti-Haitianism. Despite the island’s long-simmering tensions, Dominicans and Haitians once unified Hispaniola. Based on research from over two dozen archives in multiple countries, Siblings of Soil presents the overlooked history of their shared imperial endings and national beginnings from the 1780s to 1822. Haitian revolutionaries both inspired and aided Dominican antislavery and anti-imperial movements. Ultimatel...
