Sinopsis

Frozen by Light is a suspenseful, socially charged novel about a billionaire CEO who secretly lives as a homeless man to study the very people his business has ruined. But when his world collides with a laid-off worker seeking revenge, everything spirals. A raw story of wealth, race, and survival that exposes the cost of privilege.
 
-Frozen by Light: A Deer Caught Between Steel and Snow is a gripping, high-stakes social thriller that tears apart the illusions of wealth and poverty in modern America. Beneath the neon glare and icy winds of New York City, a secret unfolds — and it starts with Victor Chase, the steel tycoon with a haunting secret: by night, he walks the streets as one of the city’s homeless.
 
Victor’s double life takes him from towering boardrooms to dark alleyways, seeking to understand a world his decisions have helped destroy. But when a chance encounter with Jimmy — a laid-off steelworker turned streetwise survivor — sets off a chain of events, both men are forced to confront the brutal consequences of corporate greed, systemic racism, and unchecked privilege.
 
As Victor straddles the line between CEO and street informant, he begins to see the cracks in his empire and the people who suffer for his success. But the deeper he goes into this world of broken trust, betrayal, and survival, the harder it becomes to return to the life he left behind. And when an unexpected act of violence threatens to expose everything, Victor must decide if he will protect his legacy — or finally fight for justice.
 
With vivid prose and unforgettable characters, Frozen by Light is a sharp commentary on class divide, corporate exploitation, and racial inequality — a novel that peels back the layers of modern society to reveal the hard truths we ignore.
 
Perfect for readers of American Dirt, The Other Wes Moore, and The Nickel Boys, this novel will stay with you long after the last page is turned. Enter a world where nothing is what it seems — and where power, money, and survival collide.

    In this guide, you will learn more about the wars, his enemies, the battles around Rome, his life, his death, and his legacy. Some of the information about his has been falsely attributed to certain details because of how much has been lost in historical records, but we can still get a slightly accurate image of who he was, what he did, and why he has become such an infamous figure.

    Was he a brute, rapist, and pillaging dictator, or did he have a tolerant side as well?

    When I tell people who don’t speak Spanish what “prieta” means—“dark” or “the dark one”—their eyes pop open and a small gasp escapes. … How do I tell them that now, even after the cruelty of children, “Prieta” means love? That each time “Prieta” fell from my grandmother’s lips, I learned to love my dark skin. My Ita called me Prieta. When she died, she took the name with her. 
     
    Yasmín Ramírez spent her twenties feeling lost—working an intensely taxing retail job and turning to bars for comfort. When her beloved grandmother dies, she comes home to El Paso, Texas, where people know how to spell her accented name. As she pulls her life together, she finds comfort in celebrating her Ita, a resilient matriarch who was far from the stereotypical domestic abuelita. Yasmín remembers Ita wistfully singing old Mexican rancheras, her mastectomy scar, the hours they spent watching boxing matches at a dive bar, and of course, Ita’s lesson on how to ball a fist for a good punch. Interviewing her mom and older  
    sister, Yasmín learns even more about why her Ita was so tough—the abusive men, the lost pregnancies, and the toil of almost literally back-breaking jobs. In time, the writer finds her grandmother calling her forth to live with the same bravery and tenacity: “¡Ándale, Prieta!”

    This is small copy of introduction of the book: Welcome to the captivating journey through the life and legacy of Dante Alighieri, a name that echoes across the centuries. In this book, we'll unravel the fascinating tale of a man whose words ignited the flames of thought, bridging worlds of literature, philosophy, and culture. 
    Dante Alighieri, born in the charming city of Florence, Italy, in the year 1265, was not merely a poet or writer – he was a visionary whose thoughts etched upon pages transformed the way we perceive the world. His life was woven into the fabric of an era marked by political upheaval, intellectual ferment, and spiritual quest. Imagine a young boy, with curious eyes and eager ears, soaking in the stories and lessons of his time. This humble beginning laid the foundation for a literary masterpiece that would endure the test of ages – "The Divine Comedy." Through its verses, Dante embarked on a journey of the soul, venturing through the fiery depths of Hell, the cleansing paths of Purgatory, and the celestial heights of Paradise. But Dante's journey was not confined to the realms of his imagination. It traversed the landscapes of his reality – the tumultuous politics of Florence, his exile from the city he loved, and his encounters with fellow thinkers, both friendly and hostile. Each chapter of his life is a thread intricately woven into the tapestry of human history.
