Obstinate Star is a history of Puerto Rico’s independence struggle against Spanish and U.S. colonialism. From the time of the Napoleonic Wars, it traces the movement’s currents, within and beyond the island, linking them to ongoing social conflicts and international trends and conjunctures. Beginning with the radical democratic fight against Spanish control, it moves on to the early reactions to U.S. rule, the role of Nationalism, Communism and New Deal currents during the Great Depression and the Second World War, the rise of new forces in the wake of the Cuban revolution and recent struggles in the epoch of capitalist globalisation.

“Many a reader longing for a sense of homecoming in the realm of romantic fantasy will find it in A Strange and Stubborn Endurance.”—Jacqueline Carey “Stolen me? As soon to say a caged bird can be stolen by the sky.” Velasin vin Aaro never planned to marry at all, let alone a girl from neighboring Tithena. When an ugly confrontation reveals his preference for men, Vel fears he’s ruined the diplomatic union before it can even begin. But while his family is ready to disown him, the Tithenai envoy has a different solution: for Vel to marry his former intended’s brother instead. Caethari Aeduria always knew he might end up in a political marriage, but his sudden betrothal to a man from Ralia, where such relationships are forbidden, comes as a shock. With an unknown faction willing to kill to end their new alliance, Vel and Cae have no choice but to trust each other. Survival is one thing, but love—as both will learn—is quite another. Byzantine politics, lush sexual energy, and a queer love story that is by turns sweet and sultry, Foz Meadows' A Strange and Stubborn Endurance is an exploration of gender, identity, and self-worth. It is a book that will live in your heart long after you turn the last page. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

As a father of ten beautiful daughters, I have encountered many fascinating stories from them as they have gone from Infancy, puberty, teen years and now as adult children. They have ranged from funny to the ridiculous and also some to the sublime. I should have been making notes all along but from all of them I'm now forced to "wing" it. As a Children's Book Author, I write to expand the child's knowledge in both story and words. In this story, Oscar is the manager of a farm in South Africa and goes around the farm daily trying to help settle problems that the farm animals encountered on a daily basis. In the title, the word "Obstinate" has eight synonyms and as Oscar acts each one of them out, the child is required to tell which one he is acting out. They will also learn that most words have synonyms that can bring different meanings to the single word. The beautiful illustrations in the book will also enhance the child's pleasure of going through its pages. Please read and enjoy. Thank you.
