Book Synopsis Southern Exposure by : Michael Molasky

Book excerpt: Southern Exposure is the first anthology of Okinawan literature to appear in English translation, and it appears at a propitious time. Although Okinawa Prefecture comprises only one percent of Japan's population, its writers have been winning a disproportionate number of literary awards in recent years--including the prestigious Akutagawa Prize for fiction, which was awarded to Matayoshi Eiki in 1996 and to Medoruma Shun in 1997. Both Matayoshi and Medoruma are represented in this anthology, which includes a wide range of fiction as well as a sampling of poetry from the 1920s to the present day. Modern Okinawa has been forged by a history of conquest and occupation by mainland Japan and the United States. Its sense of dual subjugation and the propensity of its writers to confront their own complicity with Japanese militarism imbues Okinawa's literary tradition with insightful perspectives on a wide range of issues. But this tradition is as deeply rooted in the region's lush semitropical landscape as in the forces of history. As this anthology demonstrates, Okinawan writers often suffuse their works with a lyricism and humor that disarms readers while bringing them face to face with the region's richly ambiguous legacy.

Book Synopsis Southern Exposure by : Chris Duff
Download or read book Southern Exposure written by Chris Duff. This book was released on 2003. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this epic tale of sea-kayaking adventure, award-winning author Chris Duff places readers in the cockpit of his 18-foot kayak and lets them experience the full power and beauty of the South Pacific Ocean and the wild energy of the Tasman Sea as it thunders onto New Zealand's uninhabited west coast. Not just an account of human physical endurance and determination to attempt what had only been accomplished once before, this exquisitely written narrative reveals the philosophical and psychological life of a man who has chosen the sea as the master to sit before and to learn from. The intense and often terrifying sea journey is balanced by serendipitous meetings along the way with friendly New Zealanders and with the diverse wildlife of this tiny and remote island country. Southern Exposure is a force of writing that will captivate the armchair adventurer as well as the seasoned ocean traveler.

Book excerpt: Turning Up The Heat Being an attorney and single mother in a small Mississippi town isn't easy--especially with your rich, appearance-conscious family nearby. After years of struggling, Leona Bingham is finally beginning to redeem herself in her relatives' eyes. This newfound respect is shattered, though, when a death row inmate petitions her to save him. On A Very Cold Trail She's not a criminal lawyer, and Leona knows it's crazy to take the case, but her client swears she alone is the only one qualified to save his innocent hide. But someone doesn't want Leona to find the truth and will use her family as a terrifying pawn to stop her. As menace escalates into a murder that hits too close to home, a desperate Leona stumbles onto shocking answers that will change her life--dark truths that just might save her client, too.
