Not Just Yet. Egypt 2011: News - Incidents - Causes
by Mohamed Abdel-Maksoud
Genres: Egypt
Average rating on Goodreads: 4.53

ForewordBeginning in December 2010, a series of revolutions and rebellions rocked the Middle East. Today, this series of events is known as the Arab Spring. In January 2011, these events spread to Egypt, where they sparked the Egyptian revolution. For 18 days, protests rocked Egypt. This is where the story begins. This story will follow the events of one man as told through the digital trails one leaves on using today's technology. His emails, tweets, and blog posts will all be used in order to follow his story both during the actual revolution and in the subsequent year. During this time, the president of Egypt, Hosni Mubarak, was forced to step down from his position. The Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF), head of the military in Egypt, dissolved parliament and suspended the constitution. SCAF took over the country for six months until elections could be held. Political parties were in chaos; no one knew who could replace Mubarak. The only large organized force was the Muslim Brotherhood, an international group that had existed in Egypt since 1928, and enjoyed relative freedom under Mubarak's rule. Technically, elections had occurred in Egypt for a long time at this point. But Mubarak had ruled for thirty years, due to corruption, coercion, and manipulation of the elections. During his rule, many Egyptians lived well below the poverty level. Corruption was prevalent in the government, which groups opposing Mubarak had already been pointing out well before the revolution. The elections following the revolution were regarded by many as the first true chance for democratic elections within Egypt. It was not only the new president that would be elected in the elections. There would be new parliament members and those who started the uprising Egypt felt like they had a chance to achieve the change they dreamed of from the Parliament. If you’ve read the news about Egypt since the revolution, you know that this is not what happened. Surprisingly, the vast majority of people did not support radical change to a new democracy, and opted instead to support the familiar traditional powers: the old regime and the Muslim Brotherhood. After a brief time in rule, the Muslim Brotherhood's man in presidency was ousted following popular protests, and the head of military was appointed as a president. In many ways, Egypt is back to where it was before.The stories from the revolution are therefore important in that they shed light on the actual events during that critical year that lead to the disappointing outcomes. The book goes beyond the mere narration of events and tries to find the causes of why things went as they did. The causes date back much older than one might imagine.In this story, we look back in time at the struggle for freedom through the eyes of one unnamed man. As you follow his story, keep in mind the events that have happened since, and keep in mind what is yet to come. ---Foreword by Jill Waller.Cover art by Smo Sienkiewicz.
Going Off Grid
by Dave  Lewis
Average rating on Goodreads: 4.89

This contemporary collection by one of Wales’ most prolific poets focuses on digital capitalism, the negative influence of big tech and our addiction to data. Lewis is deeply concerned with the negative direction mankind is taking and cares passionately about helping to steer us all back to a far simpler, happier place in the far more important offline world. Death and depression, as well as love and nature, are also ever-present themes and the whole package is tightly woven together with some subtle, yet haunting, photographs. “An epic tour de force of modern poetry. The opening poem, (Diet), is reminiscent of T. S. Eliot's 'The Waste Land' and this author's ‘Roadkill‘, but this time focuses on digital capitalism. Lewis is primarily concerned with the madness and addiction pervading our online worlds while we neglect the more important offline. The title is a hope rather than a statement.“The book includes a handful of vignettes and reflections of the author's immediate locale edited in the style of Julia Margaret Cameron that provide an added texture and insight to the text. Another piece of top drawer writing by one of Wales's best poets.” - Andrew Davies

To Love An Invisible God
by Jocelyn Soriano
Average rating on Goodreads: 5.00

Is it really possible to love a God we cannot even see? Can we really love Him as we love another Person? A Person who can listen to us and respond to us? A Person who can know us far more intimately than any human being ever can?TO LOVE AN INVISIBLE GOD is a book that will take us on a journey of discovery and love. In a very simple manner, it will try to answer some of the questions we may have about having a true friendship with God. It will also cite some examples in the Bible, in the lives of saints and in the author's own spiritual journey.This book will not contain everything that can satisfy those who are searching for answers. I think there is no book that can ever contain all that can be known about God. But a book may, by God's grace, show us a glimpse of Him, and that may be enough to make us search for Him in all the many places He could be found.

Untitled Document: The Mystery Unfolds
by Sufyan Sher
Average rating on Goodreads: 4.10

Ever since humans have dwelt on Earth, they have been stuck in this mainstream ideology of life: life is hard, things don't work as they should, and the reason everything is happening is because that's how everything should be happening, and we have little to no control over any of it. In his book Untitled Document: The Mystery Unfolds, the author contradicts the above statements by declaring that change is important for the growth of humanity as a species; not just change in general. Through this book he aims to change the way humans think about and perceive situations. The book has many co-relative events and theories which are still mysterious to humans, with few or no explanations for why these things happen or have happened. This book sails through various genres of content; from storytelling to insightful theorizing to fictional writing. Instead of giving some pieces a climax, the author leaves an essence of mystery to encourage a flow of thought. The content tends to bring out a good mix of perspectives from different characters in the stories themselves. Only two chapters have names, Deja Vu & The Little Boy, other chapters, documents, or manuscripts have been kept unnamed for the readers to keep an open mind while reading. The general flow of content is not interconnected, but there may possibly be links.

Alternating between the Deep South and New York City during the 1960s and early '70s, They Come in All Colors follows a biracial teenage boy who finds his new life in the big city disrupted by childhood memories of the summer when racial tensions in his hometown reached a tipping point.It's 1968 when fourteen-year-old Huey Fairchild begins high school at Claremont Prep, one of New York City’s most prestigious boys’ schools. His mother had uprooted her family from their small hometown of Akersburg, Georgia, a few years earlier, leaving behind Huey’s white father and the racial unrest that ran deeper than the Chattahoochee River.But for our sharp-tongued protagonist, forgetting the past is easier said than done. At Claremont, where the only other nonwhite person is the janitor, Huey quickly realizes that racism can lurk beneath even the nicest school uniform. After a momentary slip of his temper, Huey finds himself on academic probation and facing legal charges. With his promising school career in limbo, he begins examining his current predicament at Claremont through the lens of his childhood memories of growing up in Akersburg during the Civil Rights Movement—and the chilling moments leading up to his and his mother's flight north.With Huey’s head-shaking antics fueling this coming-of-age narrative, the story triumphs as a tender and honest exploration of race, identity, family, and homeland.
