It is a rare book about a Chinese woman's metamorphosis through cultural conflicts in love adventures. It contains five chapters. Chapter One, "Searching for the Music of the Soul", captures the amorous encounter of two professors on a California campus. It is deeply psychological and thrilling in the vortex of self-contradictions of the protagonist concerning a woman's quest for friendship, love, and self-identity. Chapter Two, "On the Wings," registers the narrator's first quixotic but promising adventures in America. Chapter Three, "An Ugly Duckling's Swan Song", reveals her culture shocks, agonies and setbacks on American campuses as a graduate student and her rebellious childhood in China with her father as a figure of communist authority and traditional patriarchy. Chapter Four, "Sex =/=Love?", shows how the protagonist Yun, a female Don Juan, embarks on the road to spiritual liberation through the separation of sex from love. In the final chapter, "A Separate Utopia", Yun has gone through purgation in the hell of East-West value conflicts. Does she find a utopia of her own?

PASSION presents a collection of 150 poems and lyrics written by Judith Weinshall Liberman during 2012. This collection is a sequel to REFLECTIONS, her previous anthology of poems, lyrics, and stories, created with her daughter, Dr. Laura Liberman. Illustrated with photographs that highlight some of the people depicted in the verses, this collection covers a wide array of topics arranged in categories from love and relationships to looking back and remembering. Some of the writings are humorous, while others are somber. From the poignancy of First Love to the heartbreak of Losing a Sibling, Liberman captures the essence of what we feel when these changes occur in our lives. Like life itself, PASSION covers the whole gamut of human experience. Two-Way Street Somewhere along the line I learned Loves not a one-way street, For if you take but do not give, Youll end up in defeat. So dont forget to give your love To those of whom youre fond. For true love is a two-way street. Your love will seal your bond.

"Only a wayfarer born under unruly stars would attempt to put into practice in our epoch of proliferating knowledge the Heraclitean dictum that `men who love wisdom must be inquirers into very many things indeed.'" Thus begins this remarkable interdisciplinary study of time by a master of the subject. And while developing a theory of "time as conflict," J. T. Fraser does offer "many things indeed"--an enormous range of ideas about matter, life, death, evolution, and value.

A PASSION FOR POETRY Why poetry? Why has this ancient craft existed throughout time, continuing even into our fast-paced age of moderncy and technology? Perhaps two reasons: 1) The human condition still demands we ask who we are, what we are and why we are; and 2) space is limited in this form of writing requiring the poet reduce his thoughts into a quick-read format. Puns, pundits, quotes, poetry and prose capsulate 90% of everything the human race believes to be important and true Poets are avatars who define the nature and meaning of our roles. They reduce the fabric of our existence to the simplest ingredients of mind, soul, bones, sinew and desire. It is the forum that speaks to all, reaches all, touches all, teaches all, questions all, answers all.

POETRY, is like a light in the eyes of a beholder in the hue of colors, shades, tones, and tints. It offers a soft glance as a serenade to perceive thought. Poetry causes a person to move in a circle within his/her soul, to touch love anew, nature alive, life again, and death without fear. Sometimes, the soul wonders into a like magnetic field; for it shows strong waves of amazement even like angels in the spiritual realm. The sky beholds a spectrum rainbow that breaks into its puzzle like nature then, your heart beats with motion. In Unfurl Passion, Lillie inspires and infuses both women and men with provoking thoughts of the soul, while others come to appreciate themselves. Also, it is said her thoughts are only a heartbeat away, fill with inner beauty and are released. The heart speaks as a ruffle drumbeat heard in a low tune, or as a painted Rufus heart that is like a pomegranate. Indeed, it will bring out the unrecognized colorful wonderlands that have not yet been seen. Lillie is being a thinker and a passionate woman. She has a soft and gentle suave voice, which captivates her listeners like music being played by a fiddle, flute, harp and clarinet. She is three dimensions gentle suave voice, which captivates her smooth in her creative performance for her women and men listeners.

Poetry is powerful and necessary! Blake has said, “In sum, the poet is someone that humans cannot do without.” Poetry is beauty, practicality, grace, structure, gentleness and power that gives us peace, simplicity and wisdom. Poetry does nothing to earn its keep, no more than a singing bird. Yet it defines our roles, levels our road, empowers our spirits, and fills our hearts with courage. Mrs. Garrison has loved, taught and defined poetry over the years as she has studied and read many of the former poets, soaking up their styles and commenting on their writing. Poetry is like music without music. Easy to memorize, and easy to write if you pay attention to the masters, especially Poe. Poetry is a short, condensed mode of writing; it can be beautiful, loud, soft, invigorating, soul-filled and vibrant. RUBY CAT (The Passion of the Ruby Cat) is a collection of poems (rubaiyat) on life, plus a collection of quatrains and haikus. It is the third poetry book after the first two (THE PASSION OF POETRY and PASSION LAUGHS OUTLOUD!) that are all general poetry. There is a glossary in the end of each of these books giving definitions of not often used words to help the reader quickly enjoy every whimsical glance and nod.
