An Uncommon Vocabulary : Jim Boyd
An Uncommon Vocabulary
There are two activities in life that are essential to one’s happiness. The first is to have one’s day (to explore, engage and enjoy life) and the second is to say one’s say (to say the words to oneself and others that are worth saying).
“An Uncommon Vocabulary” is an exercise in saying one’s say. It is an A to Z book of common words and phrases that are described in ways better suited to them in the opinion of the author.
The concepts described herein are working definitions, definitions that can be brought to mind to facilitate one’s thinking and actions within particular circumstances.
When a working definition is properly occasioned (brought to mind at the appropriate time and in the appropriate circumstances), advantageous effects flow from it.
In this way, one’s personal narrative is made richer and more rewarding, and one becomes more coherent and positive in dealing with everyday events.

Returning home after a large stretch in Florence, the poet is instantly smitten, for this encounter promises restoration for the heart broken man.

Upon the final curtain, the biggest surprise of all is revealed, with hidden truths buried within the mysterious house.

Desire and Prejudice : Jean-Louis McMillan
Desire and Prejudice
Desire and Prejudice is about the healing power of true lovemaking and the damning power of ethnic bias.
When Jasmine and Adam first meet, they are both totally caught by surprise; their inner feelings are the magnetic force that draws them to each other. Their burning desires toward one another are unstoppable, but they are condemned by their separate lives – he is a French official and she is a Muslim.
They find ways to be with each other when they couldn’t.
The poetic letter takes the reader into the minds of two lovers desperately wanting one another, but each holding back because of their cultural backgrounds and the fear of getting caught in their dangerous game. The erotic descriptions are vivid enough, but scarcely the right quantity of description to know precisely what is going on.
Desire and Prejudice is much more than “boy meets girl, they fall in love”; it tells a realistic, believable story that readers haven’t heard before.
These characters, nor the twisted end of the story, are definitely not the stereotypical a reader can predict.
