Este livro é uma Tese de Mestrado defendida na Universidade de Estocolmo (Suécia) em 1986, com o título A Construção Artística em Sagarana: Uma Análise Estrutural Semiótica em João Guimarães Rosa.A escolha desta obra como objeto de estudo decorreu de diferentes motivações. A primeira delas é o fato de Sagarana (publicada pela primeira vez em 1946) ter sito uma espécie de laboratório em que Guimarães Rosa experimentou e exercitou todos os principais procedimentos artísticos e estilísticos que seriam postos em prática posteriormente, através dos contos de Primeiras e de Terceiras Estórias, das novelas de Corpo de Baile e de Grande Sertão: Veredas, que é o ponto culminante de seu processo evolutivo.Embora Guimarães Rosa tenha sido traduzido para os mais diversos idiomas, ele ainda é considerado como um autor difícil. Mas, se que Sagarana é o ponto de partida de seu processo criativo, a saída para vencer as dificuldades está em começar justamente por Sagarana, e não por Grande Sertão: Veredas, que é a obra mais complexa. E este nosso estudo visa contribuir justamente deste sentido.

Spenser, a single young man with a bright future, lived a very routine, some would say, very dull life until that one certain day when his life appeared to be turned upside down due to circumstances that were far beyond his control. His Monday started off routine, but upon leaving his house early to take his boss to catch a plane back east for a week of conferences all that changed when he was only a few moments from home. Would he be able to overcome some of what happened that morning? Would he find all the answers and the help he needed to get back to where he was? Or would almost everything change for him from that time forward?

The Destiny Paramortals Box set includes the first three books in the continuing saga of Jack and Tempe and the rest of the Paramortal community.Welcome to Destiny, or I should say Middle Earth…Jack Lang, here, sheriff and ex-Navy pilot. To say Destiny was not what I expected would be like saying Wolverine's fingernails were long enough for a manicure. I'd been looking for Mayberry, a quaint little safe town to raise my daughter. That ship sailed when I met Tempest Pomeroy, who turned out to be a storm witch with a djinni brother and an ex who was… hell, I don't know what he is. But I wasn't sure I could stay; I had a teenage daughter to consider.I'm Tempe Pomeroy, Tempestaerie, mail lady, and as Jack likes to say, trouble magnet. Isn't it just like a man to exit a relationship when he finds out a woman's got a few little secrets? Jack's finally investigating my little brother's disappearance but time is running out and our relationship's gone from attraction to suspicion, support to friendship, romance to oh-my-god-get-away-from-me revulsion.Jack's an ex-Navy pilot. He says he wants to know "everything". Oh, he may stick around, help me save my brother and discover the whereabouts of my parents, but I doubt he'll still want to take me to the Mardi Gras ball, once he knows "everything". He'll probably take the first jet out of Middle Earth 'cause there's a lot of everything…If you like Kristen Painter, Michelle Rowen or Molly Harper's small town paranormals and quirky characters you'll like Livia Quinn.

From its very first hours, it was clear that everything about the JonBenét Ramsey case would be different from virtually any investigation those involved had seen before.JonBenét was reported missing Dec. 26th, 1996, in a frantic 5:52 a.m. 9-1-1 call in which Patsy Ramsey told Boulder police she'd found a ransom note demanding the head-scratching figure of $118,000 for her daughter's safe return. No follow-up call was ever made to actually collect that money.Instead, JonBenét's lifeless body was discovered early that afternoon in a little-used room of the family's cellar by her father and a family friend, after the lone detective still on the scene suggested they look around to see if they found anything amiss.JonBenét was discovered with tape across her mouth, a ligature buried deep in the skin of her neck through use of a garrote fashioned from cord and a broken paintbrush taken from her mother's art supplies. Some of the same cord was loosely bound around her right wrist. Not noticed until the autopsy was that she'd also suffered a linear fracture to the right side of her skull, likely the result of a single blow from a blunt object.Similarly, marks on her body were interpreted by some as having been caused by a stun gun. Other investigators have dismissed the stun gun thesis.The grand jury investigating the death of JonBenét Ramsey voted to indict John and Patsy Ramsey on charges of child abuse resulting in death but then-District Attorney Alex Hunter refused to sign the indictment and prosecute the case. Unfortunately it looks as though no one will ever be called to answer for the murder of JonBenét Ramsey.
