While investigating an unsolved crime, Remy winds up in the tightly woven Amish community of Lancaster County, the last place she would ever expect to find herself. The story leads her to Adam King and his ten younger siblings, who are trying to sustain their warm, loving home in the wake of the murder of their parents.

With her own mother gone and her father disengaged from their relationship, Remy longs for a home and a family just like that of these good, simple people. Suddenly patriarch of his large family, Adam struggles to do the right thing for his siblings, his community, and his God. He neither wants nor needs the complications that spirited Remy brings.

Adam can only pray for the strength and the faith to get this Englisher girl out of their lives for good. Snowbound with the Kings, Remy experiences the wonder and the chores of a simple winter among the Plain People, as well as the friendship of their warm community. When her peaceful interlude ends, does she dare to reveal a killer in their midst, knowing that she may lose the love of this special family and this remarkable man?

Download Mei Yumi's Japanese Literature Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The amazing system of licensed pleasure palaces in Yoshiwara is described precisely. Physical and mental changes of children were conspicuous and understandable to grownups but sorrowful enigmas for the children themselves. Japan's literary masters and critics praised this novel as Ichiyo's masterpiece. Enjoy! The storyline of the novel, 'Turbid Bay,' runs in July in summer in touch with a downright stalker-murderer, the victim, and their background stories. A bitter remorse left behind. A 20-year-old stylish seamstress seemingly came from a good family. Once she said, “My heart burns with anger very often.” A 16-year-old employee of an umbrella shop was a foundling. One day, he wondered, “Whether I was born from a crotch of a tree.” Their relationship was over, all too soon. Okyo decided to live a better life, as a concubine. Japanese readers are moved by Kichizo's final remark. “Okyo'san, please take your hands off my shoulder.” The wealthy madam, beautiful, innocent, and lonesome, was in the center of turbulence of jealousy and infidelity. When she realized that she was blocked in every direction, everything had been arranged carefully against her. Who did it first? Amazing stories so far untold are shown with a map of Yoshiwara to overseas readers. In Appendix 1. Yoshiwara of the Edo period is described. A fantastic world of Japanese culture and tradition was a collaboration of men as wealthy customers and women as the oiran and yujo in licensed pleasure palaces. In Appendix 2, how to make the waka poetry is talked about. Enjoy! It would be fun just to read the Japanese vocabularies and meanings. The portrait of Higuchi Ichiyo has appeared as the icon of the Japanese 5,000 yen banknote since the autumn of 2004.

When Silas House made his debut with Clay's Quilt last year, it touched a nerve not just in his home state (where it quickly became a bestseller), but all across the country. Glowing reviews-from USA Today (House is letter-perfect with his first novel), to the Philadelphia Inquirer (Compelling. . . . House knows what's important and reminds us of the value of family and home, love and loyalty), to the Mobile Register (Poetic, haunting), and everywhere in between-established him as a writer to watch. His second novel won't disappoint. Set in 1917, A PARCHMENT OF LEAVES tells the story of Vine, a beautiful Cherokee woman who marries a white man, forsaking her family and their homeland to settle in with his people and make a home in the heart of the mountains. Her mother has strange forebodings that all will not go well, and she's right. Vine is viewed as an outsider, treated with contempt by other townspeople. Add to that her brother-in-law's fixation on her, and Vine's life becomes more complicated than she could have ever imagined. In the violent turn of events that ensues, she learns what it means to forgive others and, most important, how to forgive herself. As haunting as an old-time ballad, A PARCHMENT OF LEAVES is filled with the imagery, dialect, music, and thrumming life of the Kentucky mountains. For Silas House, whose great-grandmother was Cherokee, this novel is also a tribute to the family whose spirit formed him.
