    Skunk in the Wilderness

    I believe in God when I see 
    a dandelion pressing through the rupture in the pavement. 
    A tiny golden sun forcing its way through the darkness, 
    hell-bent on growing. 
      
    Recognizing the sacred in the everyday, protecting an ailing earth, opening to wonder—these reflections, along with contemplations on the importance of poop, skunks, monarch butterflies, and even bacteria became the urgent subjects of poems written in the space of a few weeks in the winter of 2020-2021. Skunk in the Wilderness reflects the global concerns of that moment in history, in the midst of the pandemic, as well as the personal concerns of the poet’s relationship to his ageing parents and his own life path. Louis Gignac writes passionately and provocatively of the need to protect the earth and connect to nature, with a multitude of subthemes, ranging from relationships to pollution, and from screen addiction to water fasting. Skunk in the Wilderness is above all about becoming conscious.

    This book is designed initially for Japanese learners, N5 to N3, but it's also suitable for people looking for a bilingual novel in Japanese and English. 
    The main character, Kevin Cartwright, visits Japan on Working Holiday, and he falls in love with a Japanese woman who is a colleague of his Japanese best friend, Yukio. And Tomoko, an almost "Yandere" woman who loves Yukio, is involved in Kevin's life. The four main characters weave this story. Kevin enjoys living in Japan, but he wants to remain there after his expired visa. The readers would experience through Kevin living in Tokyo; how to write a Japanese CV, manners, and culture. Through the stories, I introduce many idioms and expressions native Japanese use. It consists of 16 chapters, and each one comes along with word lists and 20 JLPT practice tests. This book is also great for intermediate levels because they need to understand more natural living Japanese. The audible version comes soon! The learners can listen to the stories in both English and Japanese and practice pronouncing words. I hope you enjoy studying Japanese with this book!

    Come  and marvel at how life at large can be encapsulated into a microcosm in  the form of poetic license.  Let this book be your companion when seeking to have some me-time and to chill out in your own chosen surroundings. 
     
    Or,  discuss Mallory’s poems in more depth with others. Poetry can truly dazzle and serves as an equal alternative to the excitement of reading novels. 
     
    The  beauty of poetry is the choice given to read any extract to another appropriate age group that can introduce them into this wonderful genre of literature. Similar  to music, the titles stay with the reader and will, in virtual speak, stamp its date and location to induce its messages across the wide spectrum of what everyone likes to imagine or likes to encounter. 
     
    Poetry is the perfect treat or gift for anyone who would like to travel on a magic carpet away from the madding crowd. Soothe yourself instead - in contrast to an edge of seat thriller novel or film. 
     
    Enjoy!
