Sinopsis

I am one of the many admirers of Shakespeare's genius. I have even written a book about his unique ability to remain relevant to our contemporary concerns. The work was titled The Modernity of Shakespeare1 and it was very well received, and even earned a very laudatory foreword by W ole Soyinka, Nobel laureate in Literature, and professor of English literature. So it is no surprise that when I founded the New Library of Alexandria in Egypt, I also organized an annual Shakespeare event - usually organized on the 23rd of April if at all possible - in which many eminent literary critics participated. And as we focused on the plays rather than the long poems or the sonnets, some actors and occasionally cinematographers also participated. Students from the departments of English in many universities across Egypt, also invariably participated.
At that annual event I usually presented a special lecture on Shakespeare. This went on for almost 15 years.

    The notorious history of two nineteenth-century hamlets in western New York, famous for an era of bustling commerce—and criminality.   The Town of Mendon and the Village of Honeoye Falls are today quiet western New York suburbs, but they weren't always so idyllic. In years past, the village was a center of commerce, manufacturing and railroads, and by the mid-nineteenth century, this prosperity brought with it an element of mayhem. Horse stealing was commonplace. Saloons and taverns were abundant. Street scuffles and barroom brawls were regular, especially on Saturday nights, after the laborers were paid. By Sunday morning, numerous drunks—like Manley Locke, who would eventually go on to kill another man in a fight—were confined to the lockup in the village hall. It was at this time that the Village of Honeoye Falls earned the name “Murderville.” As the town and village turn two hundred, join local historians Diane Ham and Lynne Menz as they explore the peaceful region’s vicious history.   Includes photos!

    An intimate memoir and a recounting of the exciting coalescence of a vibrant and extraordinary community. Joe Wilcox documents from its beginnings, the formation of an unwitting community that demonstrates the enormous power of bringing together outsiders into a space of celebration—and in the process, explores the insights of creating deeply connected relationships that formed in the process. Wilcox fully examines the core idea of weaving connections in the structure of crafting communities. 
    Stumbling into becoming a knitter in his twenties and following his history of participating in various groups and communities is something that is surprisingly relatable for anyone that may have felt like an outsider or yearned to be part of a larger community of one’s own. The pursuit of joy and pride in accomplishment and in bringing together a magical community of like-minded outsiders makes for a fascinating journey. Joe Wilcox, is a lifelong knitter, who has blogged about where this journey has taken him for over two decades. He has also written the ultimate design for knitting together a most amazing community.

    Some stories are written. Mine was lived. 
    In these fifty days, I didn’t just tell a tale – I let truth strip me bare. 
     Every chapter is a confession, every pause a heartbeat, every whisper a choice I can’t take back. 
    Volume Two of 50 Days of Passion takes you deeper into the fire – where tenderness meets raw desire, where silence speaks louder than words, and where love is tested, broken, and reborn. 
    It is not a fantasy. It is an autobiographical experience lived in real time, with no filters and no apologies. 
    If you are ready to listen without judgment, to feel without holding back… 
    Then step inside and don’t look back.

    Inventing BE - a memoir manifesto

    Fiercely courageous and exhilarating, Inventing BE depicts the life and time travel of Dutch designer, architect and Alinker walking bike founder, BE Alink. Growing up in the Netherlands, she had no language for what she felt about her body. How traditional society—including family members and teachers—viewed her did not align with how she identified from a very early age. In the stirring trenches of international humanitarian work across continents, BE discovered herself in places torn apart by volatile crises like Afghanistan, Kenya, Ethiopia, and Indonesia, positively affecting many others along the way.  
          BE has seen sights and peeked beneath oppressive systems most wouldn’t dare. In the process, she learned that to live a rich life, one had to confront the darkness of humanity to turn on the light of true freedom—in mind, body and spirit. Inventing BE is both memoir and manifesto dedicated to anyone who has ever had to conform or compromise their authentic self. You are never alone, and in the strangest, most far-flung places, you may be right at home.
