In the novella WHISPER TO MY ACHING HEART, Joseph R. Alila, the author of "The Milayi Curse", tells a story about two eighteenth-century Luo widows who battle against great odds to become mothers of a future people. In this moving story, the desire of one woman to honor the wishes of a fallen husband, and another woman's resolution to establish a legacy of a fallen son, unify the widows into a purposeful whole; that oneness enables them to survive the pain and humiliation of rejection (by their husbands' male kin), and they triumph in the end.A young widow (Apiny) is the bearer of the damning spiritually untouchable label in a patriarchal eighteenth-century African (Luo) clan. Ejected alongside her widowed mother-in-law and ridiculed by friends, Apiny waits for fifteen years before she receives another man in her bed. Even then, Apiny's moment of triumph only comes after her old mother-in-law (Nyandeje) remarries and raises a miracle son (Otin), who answers the call to redeem his fallen brother's honor. Even after Apiny gets all the handsome sons and beautiful daughters she wishes to get from her youthful lover, she still is not at peace in her heart. She mourns and struggles, in her heart, as her youthful husband inevitably bows to Luo cultural demands and receives his own a virgin wife (Nyogola). In Apiny's senior years, the reality of her age and jealousy against young Nyogola (and her sons) motivate her (Apiny) to eject Otin from her home, publicly. She instead opts for the company of one Achoki, an older man.

She moved her sights over to the parson, then to Evans, then to Muller. They fit the description Reese had given her before he died. These were the ones; if by some fluke they weren't her attackers, her father's killers, too bad, she thought. If that was the case, they had simply picked the wrong day to come calling. Her sights homed onto Muller, the one farthest away, the one most likely to get atop his horse and make a run for it. She rested the sights there and waited, breathing slowly, calmly. Strange, she thought, how not long ago she had looked for the slightest reason not to kill these men, these men who had violated her, who had taken her father's life, and in that sense destroyed hers. But that had changed. Now, if they fit the description, or matched the names, or came close to doing either, she wanted them dead. The killing had begun. The quicker they were dead, the sooner she could live in a home of her own-something she'd never had. And more than that, she could hold her head up and live there in peace, like regular, everyday folks-something she'd never known. A tear glistened in her eye, but there was no time to wipe it away. She wouldn't let it affect her aim.

Peek inside the wild life of a man who fought to change. "My salvation came in the form of a concept: fighting poison with poison; the same as using Cobra or Rattlesnake venom to save someone bitten by one of the vipers. I was the viper bitten by itself. ... When living, I used to lose interest in life and then go on sprees capable of causing death. When faced with death I fought to live: a paradox of my existence." THE SEARCH FOR ENLIGHTENMENT. "Maybe I was born mean, violent, screaming and striking all near when I came from my Mother's womb. And, yes, I was a disturbed child, disturbed by loud noise, inside and outside my home: my mind a whirlwind of fears; fear I would die as a child; fear my family would abandon me for being so mean; fear a jet or plane would fall upon our house and kill us all, fear I would be left alone with planes racking my brain."

Essays & More Straight from the Pen contains twelve essays, three poems, and one short story about Taser, a typical, arrogant male who learns humility in an unusual manner. Adventure into something unique.

Il libro Contemplazione sulla vita di Mosè più che un'opera esegetica, questo trattato, composto forse intorno al 392, riprende l'allegorismo di Filone giudeo nel considerare la vita del grande legislatore ebreo come allegoria del progresso dell'anima verso la compartecipazione del divino, con una trasparente derivazione anche dalla teoria dell'amore di Platone.

My life was one of those teen angst rom-coms where the ugly high school student transforms herself into the beauty queen. Except there was no cute guy helping me along, no series of makeover shots with fun background music, no scene where I walked into the room and all heads turned to look at me while wind blew through my hair. I was the ugly high school student, and I did transform, but it wasn't all peaches and cream. Bullied so badly in high school that it ruined my life, I spent my senior year in therapy. It was there that I transformed - not just physically, but mentally as well. I wanted a fresh start and going to college across the country was my ticket to that. It was a whole new world, and things were great ... ... and then came the blast from my past. And he didn't recognize me. What was a girl to do? Revenge, of course! My plan was to make him fall for me and then break his heart. Sounds simple, right? Wrong. If only revenge was black and white ... too bad a lot of gray was in the mix. But one thing was for sure - I needed a way to heal the scars from my past. I just hoped I could.
