Families and friendships splinter, and the widening gulf is soon reddened by the blood of those who refuse to cross it. Then, in the little village of Mod’in, everything changes. From the Gophna forests to the battlefields of Emmaus, the widely acclaimed In Those Days, In This Time crackles with the fierce, agonized passions of those who lost all - and of those who risked all - in the triumphant celebration of light and life we know today as the Chanukah miracle.
It Whispers... By: Ariella C. It Whispers... is a unique and gothic view into the landscape of girlhood and womanhood. Some themes or tones the book takes are on girlhood, feminism, artistry, encapsulation, domination, and subversion. It is a look at whimsical unadulterated girlhood, or more apt to put it, whimsical girlhood and unadulterated womanhood. It deals with the male gaze and thinking and living with an emotionality that is on edge. Readers can go to a deeper place in themselves and can be moved emotionally and mentally. It is hopeful it reflects their own lives and ways of living and being.
