![]() Grounded in the true stories of activists and soldiers, parents and children, Shore’s book blends a narrative of suspenseful choices with a historian’s reflections on what revolution is and what it means. In this lyrical and intimate book, Marci Shore evokes the human face of the Ukrainian Revolution. What is worth dying for? While the world watched the uprising on the Maidan as an episode in geopolitics, those in Ukraine during the extraordinary winter of 2013–14 lived the revolution as an existential transformation: the blurring of night and day, the loss of a sense of time, the sudden disappearance of fear, the imperative to make choices. ![]() A vivid and intimate account of the Ukrainian Revolution, the rare moment when the political became the existential ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() On her 21st birthday, Iwasaki was made a geisha proper, and the coming years were a whir of parties and famous names in her autobiography, she counts Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Charles among her clients. By the time she was 16-and before she was even made a full geisha, or geiko-she was the most popular geisha in Japan. As a fledgling geisha, Iwasaki learned how to pour tea, dance, and make flirtatious conversation, all with a deliberate yet graceful air. These young girls are actually what Westerners usually think of when they imagine geisha their kimonos are more elaborate than their mature counterparts, and they often wear their hair in the distinctive Nihongami style. Like most Kyoto geisha, at the age of 15 Iwasaki began her training as a maiko, or an apprentice geisha. But this was only the beginning of Mineko’s illustrious career. The house matriarch, Madame Oima, must have seen something special in the young girl: she was made heir of the house, and took up Oima’s surname, Iwasaki. At the tender age of five, she was sent away from home to study Japanese dance at the Iwasaki geisha house in the exclusive Gion district of Kyoto, which is the most elite of Kyoto’s hanamachi or “flower towns” that house geisha. Iwasaki was born as Masako Tanaka in 1949. ![]() ![]() Harlan, Iowa: (R.C.) Booth Enterprises, 1949.

All evidence points to a local distiller, a dangerous bad boy named Levi Ravinder, but Sun knows he's not the villain of her story. (What kind of people do that? And who hurt them?)īefore she can say iced mocha latte, Sunny's got a bar fight gone bad, a teenage daughter hunting a serial killer and, oh yes, the still unresolved mystery of her own abduction years prior.

This deluxe volume brings all of the Pooh stories together in one full-color, large-format book. Winnie-the-Pooh has appeared in twenty-one languates, among them Hebrew, Afrikaans, Esperanto, and Latin. The world of Winnie-the-Pooh is as popular today as when it was first created. The artist visited Cotchford Farm, the Milne country home in Sussex, where he sketched the child, the stuffed animals, and the surrounding countryside. Shepard's brilliant illustrations were based on real toys owned by Milne's son, Christopher Robin.

Teaching the Civil Rights Movement and employing the teaching strategies used in the Freedom Schools leads to the conclusion that a freedom-based pedagogical intervention can be used to re-conceptualize the overarching goals of American education and better meet the needs of all students. This article examines the history of the 1964 Mississippi Freedom Schools to illustrate how integrating the Civil Rights Movement into the social studies curriculum refocuses the aims of American education on participatory democracy. ![]() ![]() ![]() They’re not tied up in pretty little bows. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, there is something undeniably real to Scott’s stories. Was her head injury a random act of violence or is there someone truly after her? Figuring out her steps that day and in the days leading up to it are key in figuring out the truth. Scott also adds in an extra element when more attacks seem to be happening to Clem. We fall in love with him with Clem and I think that creates a special bond with a heroine that I haven’t felt before. No, like the readers, she gets small glimpses of the man behind the anger, behind the broken heart. He’s rude, rash, and generally does NOT take back to Clementine right away. Navigating your past is difficult when you’re attracted to the one man who can help you piece it all together. Now Clem has to earn the trust of the man who’s heart she seemingly broke…but it turns out she didn’t trust him at all their first time around and that’s what ended them. She can’t remember and he’s too pained to reveal it to her right away. ![]() ![]() But there’s a mystery as to why they broke up. ![]() A clue to her past leads her to a tattoo shop and its rude and gruff owner (none too pleased to see her) happens to be her ex. For the first time, readers have to discover who the heroine is alongside her as she deals with friends, family, and the life she had. Clementine, a victim of a brutal attack, has been left with no memory. Way to blow readers away with a fantastic new twist to second chance romance. ![]() |
