Book excerpt: GHETTO HEAVEN is the tale of Curtis Williams, a wealthy businessman who leads the life many men would envy...Or would they? Curtis' seemingly glamorous life is filled with so many twists and turns it would make any sane person go crazy. After escaping a lengthy federal prison sentence only to serve 26 months in a state prison, Curtis is back on the streets of Atlanta. In the 2 years since his release, Curtis has emerged as the head of a mini empire and a small fortune. With the newfound success of the newly opened Club Heaven and Pearly Gates, Atlanta's premier night spots, 45% ownership of Bawse Records, the #1 RAP label in the country. Curtis is a man that has it all at his fingertips. On one hand are his thriving business ventures and on the other hand is his personal life that's a cross between Heaven and Hell itself... You would think with the world in his palm he would be a very happy man, but missing from Curtis' life is that special person to share it all with. All that changes when Curtis meets an attractive but simple banker named Michelle. Up pops Sincere, a crazy ex from the past that will do anything to have Curtis exclusively to herself. Not surprisingly, so will Monica, Jazzy, and Vanessa. The clock is ticking as they race doing all they can to eliminate Michelle out of the equation. Will Curtis be consumed by his personal life or use his wealth to find Heaven on earth?

Book excerpt: The ghetto is a maze that so many have tried to escape, and in that same breath, so many have become lost within. Heaven has always been a destiny that so many seek to enter, yet, so many will never see. So, what happens when a street dude named GHETTO finds HEAVEN, a soft-hearted woman? Two very different people, a dangerous love affair, and a treachery that makes Satan smile. Could this turn out to be a crooked tale of deception, evil, mixed with good intentions? Is the deck already stacked against this forbidden union? Or perhaps Ghetto will draw a blank card that he can write his own destiny upon. Either way, his fate will be determined, good or bad. Conversely, can the right woman change the fate of a hood gangsta gone wrong? Walk with them through the rugged streets, the cemeteries, and the ups and downs of the game as we find out if HEAVEN GOT A GHETTO. And if she does, will the Devil claim their souls?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illuminates tensions and transformations in today's Germany by examining literary, filmic, and musical treatments of the ghetto metaphor. Accounts of how Germany has changed since unification often portray the Berlin Republic as a new Germany that has left the Nazi past and Cold War division behind and entered the new millennium as a peaceful, worldly, and cautiously proud nation. Closer inspection, however, reveals tensions between such views and the realities of a country that continues to struggle with racism, provincialism, and fear of the perceived Other. Mainstream media foster such fears by describing violence in ghetto schools, failed integration, and the loss of society's core values. The city emerges as a key site not only of ethnic and political tension but of social change. Maria Stehle illuminates these tensions and transformations by following the metaphor of the ghetto in literary works from the 1990s by Feridun Zaimoglu, in German ghettocentric films from the late 1990s and the early twenty-first century, and in hip-hop and rap music of the same periods. In their representations of ghettos, authors, filmmakers, musicians, and performers redefine and challenge provincialism and nationalism and employ transcultural frameworks for their diverging political agendas. By contextualizing these discussions within social and political developments, this study illuminates the complexities that define Germany today for scholars and students across the disciplines of German, European, cultural, urban, and media studies. Maria Stehle is Assistant Professor of German at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.

Book excerpt: Never see disparity and pretend we're blind, When we learn to have wisdom And not sacrifice good for grandeur, Don't partake in parts of foolishness Getting caught up in the mazes of life, Listening to others say, "Let your ego have its way" Knowing that would be a bitter move, Have a sense of Heaven about you Cause love is rare in this day As families part, but not pass away, When we learn to be brighter Instead of getting wrapped up in burdens of fire This is what will make our lives inspire, We must come to terms That we need a sense of concern, This will be the message When we learn

Book excerpt: I wrote this book to inspire others like myself. I have been appointed to deliver such a book by doing the works of the master, telling everything of himself, I haven't written a book or novel nor children books. From the Psalm (poems) I wrote novel of poetry of everyday life. The poems are telling a story within itself. Some people don't recognize a God given talent until a wakeup call comes. I was one of those people, I wrote many poems as a youngster and in my teens. I cast them away in my closet shelf or trash them. My baby sister Alisa always told me I had a God given gift, my baby sister Alisa reminded me of a little bitty person with a old soul young but had insight like she been here before. She had been getting my poems off the shelves and making her boyfriend cards with them. He was thinking she was writing them, she told me again, you got to keep writing them because he liked them. I was shocked, but nevertheless I said ok to my baby sister, calling herself in love. And my milestone started that day. Who would want to listen to what I had to say. The answer came later on, who would listen other than my baby sister. The same people that went down the same path and has experienced spiritual struggles, racism and was a victim of rape, gang bangers, prisoners, addicts, childhood dreama of becoming or a sense of want to belong. This book is inspired for all generations as well as the young, past, present and future. A reflection of fathers leaving homes leaving mothers taking care of homes as single parents, not to mention separated, that lead to divorce. In each of our lives we all are searching for our own path. Through our experience we live and learn, either we make mistakes ourselves or wise up or simply learn from the mistakes and trials of others as well as self. I’ve always felt that in the company of others, I find my heart to be captivated through another’s experience. Be it joy, pain, Hope or hardship. In my travels near or far in my hope of Mississippi or eve strange lands this defined me through and through. This when the journey began. We are one people, one love, one people with rainbow color of God. The color purple couldn’t have said it any better coming from Whoppi Goldberg. She said I might be ugly, I might even be black, I might even been misunderstood, but thank God am STILL HERE... We’re just ordinary people, why one kill because of the color of our skin. I never understand that. There is a time and purpose of our being. Know that there is a GOD... who hears and sees all GOD bless hope you enjoy....

Book excerpt: A breakaway bestseller since its first printing, All Souls takes us deep into Michael Patrick MacDonald's Southie, the proudly insular neighborhood with the highest concentration of white poverty in America. Rocked by Whitey Bulger's crime schemes and busing riots, MacDonald's Southie is populated by sharply hewn characters like his Ma, a miniskirted, accordion-playing single mother who endures the deaths of four of her eleven children. Nearly suffocated by his grief and his community's code of silence, MacDonald tells his family story here with gritty but moving honesty.
