The Choreo-novel, “Big Auntie’s Pearls” is my attempt to expand upon the form of dramatic expression known as “Choreopoem” which combines poetry, dance music and song with traditional African-American storytelling. My story’s implied plot uses theme elements with specific characters to hopefully create an emotional response from readers also its listeners. Nontraditional spelling and vernacular are written in the Concert format with each chapter called an Opus with three different movements as found in a Sonata or acts of an Opera or Ballet. The four Opuses are infused with Intermezzo and in Three-quarters time giving those of us with short attention spans maybe a twelve-hour read or an hour for one movement. This Google interactive version contains links to music; fashion; food and culture with also fast cars of the times to enhance the readers experience and maybe even do a little shopping. My story is Historical "Inspirational Fiction” using pseudonyms of persons and Venerable Institutions in a respectful fictitious manner to help Annamitta (Anna-mē-ta) tell her story of her Big Auntie’s whispered “High Pearls of Burden.” I invite you on this journey to my native Southwest Georgia in the “Morning Star Suite” and a debut recital in the Southern hamlet of Boston before spanning through time with stops in Washington DC, Miami until Annamitta’s “New Day” at Savannah’s College by the Sea. * Inspirational external links included for entertainment, educational and historical reference.

The Choreo-novel, "Big Auntie's Pearls" is my attempt to expand upon form of dramatic expression known as "Choreopoem" which combines poetry, dance, music and song. This term was first coined by the Great Ntozake Shange in her usage of traditional African-American storytelling in entertaining and for teaching. My story with its implied plot uses theme elements with specific characters to hopefully create an emotional response from readers or from its listeners. My story uses nontraditional spelling and vernacular written in Concert format with each chapter called an Opus with three different movements as found in a Sonata or acts of an opera or a ballet. The four Opuses are infused with Intermezzo written in three-quarters time giving those of us with short attention spans maybe a twelve-hour read or only an hour for a movement.The characters are mostly of imagination fused with a matriarchal surname in a fictitious manner in helping Annamitta (Anna-mē-ta) tell her story of Big Auntie's whispered "High Pearls of Burden" as combined with pseudonyms of persons and venerable Institutions so not to disparage. I invite you to join this journey leading into the early 1900s in my native Southwest Georgia in the "Morning Star Suite" with Big Auntie's debut piano recital in the Southern hamlet of Boston before heading to college in Washington DC. Annamitta enters the story as a six-year old as her "Sonatina" begins with a Polonaise North with her Mama Minnie Lou where she learns dignified protest and discovers a talent for sewing.Annamitta's adult dance kicks-off in what I like to call the "Honey Pot Suite" where a visit with her big sister Suzie Mae in Miami leads to an altercation with Trixie Dupree causing concern over Mr. Buddy J.Big Auntie's Pearls journey into a "New Day" of late 1959 when Annamitta's skills help secure her admittance into Savannah's College by the Sea where after their rocky start she and her roommate W. Joan from New York find shared dismay over Institutional formalities. Though disagreeing over some "Politics of Fashion" the roommates form coalition to combine academics with having a good time while easing pressures of taking on more traditional roles amongst "Precious Pearls of the Sea!"

The aunties are back, fiercer than ever and ready to handle any catastrophe—even the mafia—in this delightful and hilarious sequel by Jesse Q. Sutanto, author of Dial A for Aunties. Meddy Chan has been to countless weddings, but she never imagined how her own would turn out. Now the day has arrived, and she can't wait to marry her college sweetheart, Nathan. Instead of having Ma and the aunts cater to her wedding, Meddy wants them to enjoy the day as guests. As a compromise, they find the perfect wedding vendors: a Chinese-Indonesian family-run company just like theirs. Meddy is hesitant at first, but she hits it off right away with the wedding photographer, Staphanie, who reminds Meddy of herself, down to the unfortunately misspelled name. Meddy realizes that is where their similarities end, however, when she overhears Staphanie talking about taking out a target. Horrified, Meddy can’t believe Staphanie and her family aren’t just like her own, they are The Family—actual mafia, and they're using Meddy's wedding as a chance to conduct shady business. Her aunties and mother won’t let Meddy’s wedding ceremony become a murder scene—over their dead bodies—and will do whatever it takes to save her special day, even if it means taking on the mafia.

The action spans from San Diego to Seattle with victims and cops battling an expansive criminal network of church members and crooked law enforcement. In San Diego, Ana Martinez overhears her stepfather's phone call regarding the deaths of six young Mexican girls and plans for delivery of new merchandise. Believing she could become one of the next sex trafficking targets, Ana flees to Cheater's Lake to her cousin, Olivia Ortega, for help. Olivia shares the taped call with her lover, Homicide Detective Mark Walsh. Working undercover with the FBI task force, Walsh and best friend Greg Hogan, a former San Diego PD detective, join forces to track down the next shipment headed for Canada. It's a race against time when the kidnappers' van overturns and the brave young girls who survived are on the run in Northern California. Meanwhile, in Seattle, a former gang detective specializes in runaways and employs pimps to recruit young girls for prostitution, as well as shipping them to Canada. He's unaware of a ringer in the group, the streetwise Pearl, who flees with Zoe and Regina, hot-wiring cars from Seattle to San Diego and back. Pearl's determination to find justice nearly costs her life. Walsh manages to infiltrate the trafficking group but makes an enemy of psychopath Arnie Willetts. As rescues are attempted and the criminals are captured or killed, Willetts vows revenge against Walsh, and Ana ultimately pays the price. Welcome to the world of Cheater's Lake!

"Modern Chinese fiction . . . looks to have made a great leap towards the bookshelves of [Western] readers."—Guardian Hugely popular in China, flash fiction is poised to be the most exciting new development in contemporary Chinese literature in a decade. Integrating both vernacular and contemporary styles while embracing new technologies such as text messaging (SMS) and blogging, contemporary Chinese flash fiction represents the voice of a civilization at the brink of a startling and unprecedented transformation. This collection features 120 short-short stories (from 100 to 300 words each), written by some of China's most dynamic and versatile authors. Dong Rui's The Pearl Jacket offers a glimpse of the real and surreal in human evolution, Chen Qiyou's Butterfly Forever brings an ancient Chinese literary motif into a startling modern context, while Liu Jianchao's Concerned Departments mocks the staggering complexity of life in the new urban China. Traditional, experimental, and avant-garde, The Pearl Jacket and Other Stories will reinvigorate the position of young Chinese writers as a major presence in contemporary literature. Their voices breathe new energy into modern Chinese literature, leaving the literary and societal stagnation of the Cultural Revolution behind as a distant memory. Shouhua Qi is an associate professor of English at Western Connecticut State University. He is the author of Red Guard Fantasies and Other Stories and When the Purple Mountain Burns. He is one of the foremost experts (and translators) of the novels of Thomas Hardy.

Praise for Champ Clark’s Venetian Blonde... “A modern-day noir written in the terse style of Raymond Chandler and just as satisfying.” “Hammett, Algren, and Spillane, all mixed together and brought to you with grit and humor into the 21st century.” “If you picked up Holden Caulfield at the end of the Catcher in the Rye and spirited 30 years beyond, the individual you're looking at might very well be Venetian Blonde’s Drake Haynes” “Venetian Blonde by Champ Clark is a must read! The writing is brilliant. The characters take you on a journey that you don't want to end!” “Equal parts gumshoe detective novel & Confederacy of Dunces.” “It’s been a long while since I’ve had this much fun with a book.” “Taking an adventurous journey through the poetic, damaged, frequently hilarious lens of bitter, can’t let it go, investigative journalist Drake Haynes, is about as entertaining as it gets.” “What a fun, twisted, refreshingly captivating and truthful ride!” “Mr. Clark's writing is first rate.” “Clark's prose is so punchy and vivid, his characters so alive that Venetian Blonde knocks stars into your head.” “Flows beautifully and so much fun!”
