The Broken Wings / Tears and Laughter / Sand and Foam
Kahlil Gibran - 2002
Besides attaining success as an artist in the symbolist tradition, it was here that Gibran found his calling to write for the soul, an enthusiastic patron in Mary Haskell and, soon after, recognition as a modern-day mystic. The lucidity of his worldview endeared him to a wide range of readers the world over, but particularly in America, where he influenced the popular culture in the sixties. His writings have not only inspired and influenced generations together but also have made the entire realm of high philosophy much simpler and graspable for the common reader.
Meteoric Flowers
Elizabeth Willis - 2006
These poems are allusive and tough. While they celebrate the pleasures of the natural world--mutability, desire, and the flowering of things--they are compounded by a critical awareness of contemporary culture. As we traverse their associative leaps, we discover a linguistic landscape that is part garden, part wilderness, where a poem can perform its own natural history. Divided into four cantos interrupted by lyrics and errata, Meteoric Flowers mirrors the form of Erasmus Darwin's 18th-century scientific pastorals. In attending to poetry's investigative potential, Willis shifts our attention from product to process, from commodity to exchange, from inherited convention to improvisational use.

Harry Potter And The Order Of Phoenix: A Summary About This Novel Of J.K Rowling!! (Harry Potter And The Order Of Phoenix: A Detailed Summary-- Book 5, Box Set, Novel, Rowling)
The Summary Guy - 2015
Rowling, a successful writer of previous four books about a young wizard that enchanted the hearts of both the young and the grown-ups. Maybe the most important thing about this sequel is that it is the longest book of all seven, with its thirty-eight chapters and more than seven hundred pages (total number of pages varies according to the country; Swedish has, for example a thousand pages while UK version has seven hundred sixty six). Similar to the last four books, this one also revolves around young wizard named Harry Potter, his life in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, his coming of age, relationship with his friends Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, but difference is that this book revolves more around Harry’s relationship with his godfather Sirius Black, introduced in the third book- Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Also, the fifth book is somewhat more ‘mature’ and more ‘sinister’, because here readers learn that lord Voldemort (evil sorcerer and the nemesis of Harry) has indeed returned, along with his followers called ‘’Death Eaters’’ and that he has taken physical form and that the events that will happen because of their actions will be the core of the story.

The Missing Bride: Her Love Started Where His Ended....
Seema Parashar - 2015
All your problems will be solved while we have fun’, his voice sounded throatier as he spoke. ‘Fun? For me, it’s sin’, she met his eyes with a conspicuous scorn. His mouth contorted into a sarcastic smile. ‘Prudish! This outmoded thinking won’t do you any good. Your body won’t lose any of its charm if you share it with me for a few days.’ ‘You think my ethics are outdated and I think that your modern ideas are outrageous. I don’t share even my feelings with someone I don’t trust. For me, any kind of physical intimacy, not preceded by love and commitment, is a sin, committed to self.' ‘Then you have two options, either you fall in love with me or decide to commit this sin as this is the only key to your freedom.' ‘I don’t want to go back’, she said flopping her head back on the pillow behind her, ‘I like it here.'
