CEMETERY GIRL: THE PRETENDERS Charlaine Harris, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Sookie Stackhouse novels and the Harper Connelly Mysteries, and New York Times bestselling author Christopher Golden present an original graphic novel illustrated by acclaimed comic book artist Don Kramer—first in a brand-new trilogy. She calls herself Calexa Rose Dunhill—names taken from the grim surroundings where she awoke, bruised and bloody, with no memory of who she is, how she got there, or who left her for dead. She has made the cemetery her home, living in a crypt and avoiding human contact. But Calexa can’t hide from the dead—and because she can see spirits, they can’t hide from her. Then one night, Calexa spies a group of teenagers vandalizing a grave—and watches in horror as they commit murder. As the victim’s spirit rises from her body, it flows into Calexa, overwhelming her mind with visions and memories not her own. Now Calexa must make a decision: continue to hide to protect herself—or come forward to bring justice to the sad spirit who has reached out to her for help...

"A specter lurks in the house of music, and it goes by the name of race," write Ronald Radano and Philip Bohlman in their introduction. Yet the intimate relationship between race and music has rarely been examined by contemporary scholars, most of whom have abandoned it for the more enlightened notions of ethnicity and culture. Here, a distinguished group of contributors confront the issue head on. Representing an unusually broad range of academic disciplines and geographic regions, they critically examine how the imagination of race has influenced musical production, reception, and scholarly analysis, even as they reject the objectivity of the concept itself. Each essay follows the lead of the substantial introduction, which reviews the history of race in European and American, non-Western and global musics, placing it within the contexts of the colonial experience and the more recent formation of "world music." Offering a bold, new revisionist agenda for musicology in a postmodern, postcolonial world, this book will appeal to students of culture and race across the humanities and social sciences.

A spellbinding novel of suspense from New York Times bestselling author James Grippando, in which Miami’s top prosecutor becomes a prime suspect in his wife’s disappearance, which may have a chilling connection to the woman he can’t forget. Unbelievable was the word for her. Samantha Vine was unbelievably beautiful. It was unbelievable that she’d married me. Even more unbelievable that she was gone . . . Samantha died too soon. Abe Beckham’s new wife has helped him through the loss, but some say it was a step back to marry Angelina, a love from Abe’s past. Abe doesn’t want to hear it, and through the ups and downs, he’s even managed to remain a star prosecutor at the Miami State Attorney’s Office. Then everything goes wrong. A woman’s body is discovered dumped in the Everglades, and Abe is called upon to monitor the investigation. The FBI is tracking a killer in South Florida they call “Cutter” because his brutal methods harken back to Florida’s dark past, when machete-wielding men cut sugarcane by hand in the blazing sun. But when the feds discover that Abe had a brief encounter with the victim after Samantha’s death, and when Angelina goes missing, the respected attorney finds himself under fire. Suspicion surrounds him. His closest friends, family, professional colleagues, and the media no longer trust his motives. Was Angelina right? Was their marriage not what they’d hoped for because he loved Samantha too much? Or was there another woman . . . and a husband with a dark side who simply wanted his new wife gone?

Chamavam-se Inessa, Clara, Nadia, Magda, Felismina, Jiang Qing, Elena, Catherine... E eles Lenine, Mussolini, Estaline, Hitler, Salazar, Mao, Ceausescu, Bokassa. Prostitutas ou mulheres da alta burguesia intelectual, paixões fugazes ou amores intensos, eles maltratavam ou adoravam-nas, mas, sistematicamente, voltavam para os seus braços. Esposas, companheiras, musas, admiradoras, todas têm em comum o facto de terem sido vencedoras, enganadas e sacrificadas. Aos seus homens cruéis, violentos, tiranos e infiéis, faziam crer que eram belos, charmosos e todo-poderosos. Sendo a virilidade um dos alicerces do poder absoluto, os ditadores sentiam a necessidade de juntar figuras femininas ao imaginário de poder e domínio que criaram. E assim controlando-os na sombra, por vezes, até à morte, como se vivessem sob a égide de um Pigmaleão. Diane Ducret relata em detalhe os momentos, as estratégias de sedução, os casos amorosos, as intervenções políticas e os destinos diversos, ocasionalmente trágicos, das mulheres que cruzaram o caminho ou passaram pelo leito dos ditadores.

A story packed with action and adventure, yet mercifully free of car chases, angry policemen, murderous mercenaries and gun fights - indeed no gun or knife is drawn in anger from one end of the book to the other. Trust Spain’s top-selling novelist, Vázquez-Figueroa, to pull this off now that he is at the peak of his powers. For this epic, he has chosen the life and times of Jimmie Angel, an American pioneer airman who lived through the early days of aviation with passionate intensity as an intrepid pilot, becoming involved in just about every impossible venture on offer in those heady days in the first half of the twentieth century - distant wars, stunts for air shows and films, missions for oil companies, pioneering aviation in China - and crowning his achievements with the discovery of the highest waterfall in the world: Angel Falls in the Venezuelan jungle. The story centers on his adventures as a hired pilot in the Guiana Highlands - the most mysterious comer of the Americas, lying between Venezuela and Brazil. This extraordinary setting features the striking, age-old tabular mountains called tepuis - flat-topped massifs that tower oddly above assorted stretches of jungle and plain, in a remote region that was entirely unknown then, and that remains largely unknown even today. At the top of a particularly imposing tepui, a Scottish gold-seeker, John McCraken, had found gold and diamonds aplenty after spending most of his life wandering in the jungles of South America. Wishing to return there as an old man, and no longer able for long treks through such remote territory, he employs the services of a pilot reputed to be the most daring of them all, Jimmie Angel, the idea being to fly straight to “his” tepui and land on it - at a time when airdromes were few and far between, and when obtaining fuel supplies was always a problem. The adventures of McCraken and Angel as they strike out into the unknown form a gripping story, with vivid portraits of astonishing landscapes and colorful individuals and peoples, and cameo recollections of adventures with such figures as Lawrence of Arabia and Howard Hughes. As we have come to expect from this author, in the end the small group of central characters emerge as the essential substance of the work: powerfully drawn, they grow in themselves and in our minds as they face up to each new day and the unknown trials it inevitably brings. A story well told, characters well drawn, and a spectacular setting vividly captured. Yet Vázquez-Figueroa does not stop there: he also manages to convey the excitement of a virgin world where nothing can be taken for granted, where success or failure depend solely on the human qualities of the protagonists, and where everything still remains to be conquered with whatever help the new-born technology of the time can contribute.

This book explores how transformations and translations shape musical meanings, developments and the perception of music across cultures. Starting with the concept of music as multimodal text, the author understands translation as the process of transferring a text from one language – verbal or not – into another, interlingually, intralingually or intersemiotically, as well as the products that are derived from this process. She situates music and translation within their contemporary global context, examining the tensions between local and global, cosmopolitan and national, and universal and specific settings, to arrive at a celebration of the translational power of music and an in-depth study of how musical texts are translated. This book will be of interest to translation studies scholars who want to broaden their horizons, as well as to musicians and music scholars seeking to understand how cultural exchange and dissemination can be driven by translation.

What will it be like to live in Lagos 100 years after Nigeria gained independence from the British? In 2010, eight writers came together to contribute stories to an anthology on fictional / futuristic takes on the city of Lagos via a workshop tagged LAGOS_2060, conceived to commemorate Nigeria's golden jubilee. The anthology that grew out of the workshop is telling in the different versions of the future it foretells. In LAGOS_2060 - an unusual scenario planning exercise achieved through the power and magic of a creative writing programme - there are climate change induced natural disasters actively plugged by doomsday preachers of the day, there are serious government institutions involved in first rate science and more often than not, these institutions tackle and solve the energy crisis to various degrees of success. There are wars and near wars as Lagos threatens to secede from the Nigerian state to have full control of its own economy. There are robots, amphibious speed trains, psychedelic drugs and highly trained security operatives with conflicts of interest, but more importantly, there are the ubiquitous Lagos people, whose industry and inventiveness seems largely unchanged, despite how much their city has travailed in the intervening half century.
