Black Like Water is built around the flow of water as a central concept and as a metaphor for Blackwomanhood-fluid, powerful, transformative. Just as water shapes the land, the words andexperiences in Black Like Water invite readers to reshape themselves. Through a combinationof poetry, reflective writing prompts, and holistic exercises, this book offers a multi-layeredexperience where every reader can engage at their own pace, and explore not only the text butalso their own internal landscapes. Shiann Croft is a multidisciplinary artist and poet whose work centers on Blackidentity, creative liberation, and cultural reclamation. As the Founder, Director, and Curator ofThe Coven: Black Artists In Residence, Shiann creates spaces where artists can reconnectwith their roots, and create art that is both revolutionary and restorative.
Sam is not a coward; he is a perfect coward.He is depressed, lonely and all but set on living out his life in numb mediocrity. Lucy is a strange and powerful man with a bizarre and nefarious interest in Sammy. After a 'chance' meeting, Lucy gifts Sam with abilities far greater than anything his uncreative imagination could've ever dreamed of. For his part, Sam must learn to control this mysterious power by either rising above his weaknesses or giving in to them entirely.
The city of Fury is a mother that eats its young. It is a working class melting-pot found at the end of the line on the Quad-City Express. It is a place with where the predators are equal to the number of those preyed upon.Living in the city is tough, and growing up there is even harder. Cava, Luc, and Sally each face their own separate demons in trying to make it through their final year of high school. Surrounded by fiends, thieves, prostitutes, pimps, and gangs, the crew must find their own path to overcome the temptations and obstacles, and make it through just one more year.
"The book's framing is urgent and intriguing, reminiscent in some ways of the novels of Chuck Palahniuk."-KirkusMost self-help books will describe remedies and issue lessons to escape the perverted spiral of depression and anxiety. They will aim at improving the quality of one's life and inform choices and states of mind that nurture a healthy and productive psyche.Not this book. Things can always get worse, and baby, they probably will.My life was, is and will probably always be painfully average. I am the glistening standard of what it means to be normal. My grades, my looks, my jobs, my partners, everything, dead-center in the median of ordinary. Most of us are like that, at least that's what Alex says.Oh, Alex? He's my best friend.He's attractive and cool and mysterious and says things that I've thought better than I could ever say them. See, I've always known my mediocrity and was trying to be okay with it. But Alex, he seems to think I'm capable of more. He's my best friend and he's anything but average. He's also kind of a dick.
You hear all kinds of stories in a bar. All kinds of characters with all kinds of experiences. Booze is amighty fuel. It brings out the best in some and the worst in every one else. If you post up on a barstoollong enough, you might hear someone's entire life story, whether you asked for it or not.If that barstool happens to be plugged into the wood at the Knowlton Tavern, then the story you wouldbe hearing might belong to James 'Feb' February. Only at a dive bar full of the most desperate, strangesocietal castaways could an individual such as him share a story like his.As a former cop, convict, drug dealer, drug addict, an army veteran, a once loving father and husband, and recently homeless, Feb has a lot of stories. Upon the insistence of the bartender, Sofia, he revisitshis earliest memories: A latchkey kid with a prostitute mother in a destitute neighbourhood. Seeing littlefuture in education and wanting better, Feb becomes an errand boy for the D'Antonio crime family.Though young and an outsider, he is able to climb the ranks with the help of his friend Mario, until abotched train robbery changes everything. The mob holds him responsible. His punishment is swift. Feb is allowed to live, but is sent to war with a false identity in theplace of a made-man's son.At 17 years old, he is consumed by one thought: revenge. It does not go away. It does not subside.While recounting his tale, decades later, the first moment for vengeance presents itself. A chance toright one of the countless wrongs in his life and cross out one of the many names on his list. Is it possibleto feel closure in a life that one has never felt in control of, ever?Feb swears that he is committed to changing for the better. His decisions and actions will demonstratehow far he has evolved. Is a rehabbing scumbag allowed to relapse? Can he recover if he slips just onetime or will it open the floodgates?
