This one will stay with you a long time.' - Angie Thomas, bestselling author of The Hate U Give'This was the type of book where "I'll just do 50 pages" turned into finishing it in 2 reads. I felt very emotional, not just because the story and the words themselves were so beautiful but because I knew it was going to make so many teens who felt like no one cares about them or listens to them feel seen.' - Tomi Adeyemi, bestselling author of The Children of Blood and BoneTHE POET X - THE WINNER OF THE CILIP CARNEGIE MEDAL.

A stunning New York Times bestseller with a powerful and unforgettable YA voice. Perfect for fans of Tomi Adeyemi's The Children of Blood and Bone, Angie Thomas's The Hate U Give and Sarah Crossan's One. Xiomara has always kept her words to herself.

When it comes to standing her ground in her Harlem neighbourhood, she lets her fists and her fierceness do the talking. But X has secrets - her feelings for a boy in her bio class, and the notebook full of poems that she keeps under her bed. And a slam poetry club that will pull those secrets into the spotlight.

Because in spite of a world that might not want to hear her, Xiomara refuses to stay silent. A novel about finding your voice and standing up for what you believe in, no matter how hard it is to say. Brave, bold and beautifully written - dealing with issues of race, feminism and faith.

Описание:

Many of the textbooks available for undergraduate and sub-degree students beginning to learn the concepts and practice of global supply chains are either too technical or too theoretical in nature. To fill this gap, 'Managing Global Supply Chains' includes chapters that cover traditional and contemporary topics (reverse logistics, logistics associations, logistics education, sustainability in supply chain management, operations in global supply chains and financial management). Globalization, advanced technology, organizational consolidation, the empowered consumer and government policy have contributed to the timeliness of the book.

Описание: MANTEO, N.C. - An ascetic romantic, John Patrick Acevedo began his quest for God and love while he was a freshman at Clemson University. As he showed up rather nervously to his very first college course, he was quite stunned to see a beautiful professor, Amanda Dyer, who would prove to be instrumental to his writing. During his sophomore year at Boston University, he started to "write poetry that was exactly the same as the Holy Bible." It was only after graduating after Boston, however, that he committed to writing poetry. In his latest installment of poetry in "Healing w/o Patient Suffering (for Virginal Sole Distinction): More Ethos by John Patrick" (published by Xlibris), Acevedo discusses the spirit or karma from an animal magnetic dimension of human nature and how it is actually the passion of the sociological aspects of autonomy and choice. "These are original poetry with innovative ideas that have a lyrical style of my own. My poetry book is romantic, aesthetically spiritual and quite emotionally moving. Its overall theme is that weakness is fundamentally seen as pathos or logos when in actuality, it is an ethos," Acevedo says. When asked what he wants readers to take away from his writing of the book, Acevedo says, "that life is brief and that it is all about what you put into it." Of the 86 poems in the book, most have appeared in the previous Synergy Press (synergy-press.org) books he published between 2012 and 2018.
