The research also aims to do an overview of contemporary Brazilian indigenous literature, examining the concepts, function and the writer’s role, adding to this it seeks to do a survey of authors and works and, also, to discuss about indigenous women activism in literature and languages. This study intends to analyze Eliane Potiguara’ s ethnopoetics, in her work Metade cara, metade máscara (2004), and Grace Graúna’s ethnopoetics, in her works Canto Mestizo (1999) and Tear da palavra (2007), evaluating how the poetic language mechanisms of both contribute to the reaffirmation of indigenous identities and how they show alterity.

The gypsy ends up "escaping" the church to find her long-lost mother grieving in a self-inflicted, weather-exposed dungeon (prayer cell). The hunchback (saved and raised by the priest) is also infatuated with the gypsy girl - he at least respects her bubble and moreso seems to recognize her as a human being - and thus rescues her from the scaffold temporarily protecting her with the sanctuary of Notre Dame ('cept that's the priest's crib!). The gypsy girl is arrested and sentenced to hang as a witch. The soldier is about to get lucky with the gypsy girl when the priest intervenes and stabs him. (except when compared with the priest then he comes out favorably). While reading, I was considering the merits of abridged versions of classical works, but at the end - FUCK.My only experience with this tale was Disney - I knew their version was rot-your-teeth, sugar coated but duuuuuuude.SPOILER ALERT:In the late 1400s, a priest is infatuated with a gypsy girl who is in love with a soldier who is a P.O.S. The six-book series (four are presently out) builds in sexual content, and in the third book, readers finally get a scene that has been set up since book one. The series' female protagonist, Poppy, is introduced at the start of the series as “The Maiden” but becomes anything but by the final of book one. It’s as if “Under the Mountain Rhys” morphed into a Vlad-the-Impaler type vampire/god with a dark sense of humor and fetish for women wielding swords, but also extremely compassionate - fiction men are wild like that. He’s twisted in the most deliciously depraved ways. If you’re looking for a male love interest that rivals Rhysand in debauchery, then enter Hawke. From Blood and Ash (FBAA) is one of the top recommended series to overcome your ACOTAR hangover - and for good reason. Thank you! Monsters Born and Made is a dystopian fantasy set in a harsh oceanic world where 16-year-old Koral hunts and captures vicious sea beasts for a deadly chariot race tournament called the Glory Race. My life also did not have a “normal” trajectory that we socially expect and so even though I have physically aged out of being a young adult, the tangle of emotions as we come of age has followed me still and is very new in my head and when I write stories, they tend to come out as YA.Ĭongrats on your debut young adult novel, Monsters Born and Made! Tell us about the book and what inspired you. Over the years, I tried other categories, but at heart I know my voice suits a YA story the best. So, as a teen, it was quite natural to write for teens. But I started to write original novels with the intent to publish when I was in my late teens. I’m a writer based in India and I’ve been writing since I was a singe-digit-age kid. Tell us about yourself and how you came to write for teens.

Looking at a few important quotes from the work reveals deep wisdom on how to better navigate life. In his most famous collection of teachings, the Dao De Jing, Laozi explains how to act in accordance with the alternating cycles of nature, in other words: a person needs to “go with the flow”. The word, dao, itself means “the way”, the pattern and substance of everything that exists. This philosophy, which some consider a religion, teaches how to live in harmony with the world. This wisdom lays a simple framework for achieving harmony, making life a little bit easier.ĭaoism, sometimes spelled Taoism, comes from Ancient China and the writings of philosophers like Laozi, who lived during the 5th or 4th century BCE. While the author is traditionally believed to be the philosopher Lao Tzu, there is little evidence that Lao Tzu existed at all. This way of thought goes beyond just an esoteric ancient Chinese philosophy, and anybody can grasp some of its key concepts with a few quotes from one of Daoism’s most important books, the Dao De Jing. The Tao Te Ching, or The Way and Its Power, is a collection of poetry and sa yings from around the third and fourth centuries B.C.E. In a modern world that never sleeps, anyone could benefit from the simplicity found in Daoism. Soon, Jess is mixed up in a world of real estate tycoons, petty gangsters, and gods who really don’t like it when you tamper with their shrines-and the Black Water Sister is the worst of them all. In the middle of making sure her father doesn’t work too hard and entertaining a steady stream of her aunt’s friends, Jess is visited by her grandmother’s ghost, who definitely has unfinished business. Having grown up in the United States, Jess finds returning to Malaysia is an adjustment, as she tries to balance her family’s expectations (she’s living in her aunt’s house, after all) with her own ideas about what her life should look like (maybe her girlfriend shouldn’t be secret). Jessamyn Teoh’s grandmother is back from the dead-but Jess is the only one who can hear her.Īfter financial setbacks, Harvard graduate Jess and her parents move back to Malaysia looking for a fresh start.
