Book Synopsis Katja from the Punk Band by : Simon Logan

Book excerpt: A punk girl turns outlaw in this award-winning industrial crime thriller that “reminds me of Harlan Ellison at his most daring and dangerous” (Jack O’Connell, author of Word Made Flesh). Katja, like everyone else stuck on the work island they call home, wants to get to the mainland by any means necessary. Shooting her boyfriend and stealing a chemical vial is one way to ensure her safe passage; the only problem is, she’s not the only one who wants the precious chemical—or the freedom it will bring. There’s Nikolai the joystick junkie; Aleksakhina, Katja’s parole officer; Vladimir Kohl, the small-time chemical dealer, and his boss Szerynski; the rival chemical lord Dracyev, and his lover, Ylena. And then there’s the Man In Red, ready and waiting for whoever is (un)lucky enough to end up with the vial. Winner of the Fireball Award, Katja From the Punk Band is Jackie Brown meets the Sex Pistols, “an excellent and fast-paced industrial crime novel,” and book one in the thrilling Katja series (Colleen Wanglund, The Horror Fiction Review).
Book Synopsis The Lives and Deaths of Shelter Animals by : Katja M Guenther
Download or read book The Lives and Deaths of Shelter Animals written by Katja M Guenther and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-18 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “By investigating the . . . connection between the . . . shelter and the community . . . vastly expands . . . notions of intersectionality, democracy, and inclusivity.” —Leslie Irvine, American Journal of Sociology Monster is an adult pit bull, muscular and grey, who is impounded in a large animal shelter in Los Angeles. Like many other dogs at the shelter, Monster is associated with marginalized humans and assumed to embody certain behaviors because of his breed. And like approximately one million shelter animals each year, Monster will be killed. The Lives and Deaths of Shelter Animals takes us inside one of the country's highest-intake animal shelters. Katja M. Guenther witnesses the dramatic variance in the narratives assigned different animals, including Monster, which dictate their chances for survival. She argues that these inequalities are powerfully linked to human ideas about race, class, gender, ability, and species. Guenther deftly explores internal hierarchies, breed discrimination, and importantly, instances of resistance and agency. “Powerful and timely. . . . Katja M. Guenther unlocks the shelter door and eloquently explains this complicated and contested multispecies space, as she reflects on issues such as witnessing, vulnerability, advocacy, grievability, compassion, and animal resistance.” —Carol J. Adams, author of The Sexual Politics of Meat “In this compassionate, incisive ethnography . . . Katja M. Guenther illuminates the entangled injustices that shape human relationships with other animals.” —Lori Gruen, author of Entangled Empathy “With the perfect balance of intimacy and analytical depth, the author reminds us of how messy things can get when caring and killing become one, or when the value of the animal companion's life is measured by the race, gender, and zip code of the owner.” —Bénédicte Boisseron, author of Afro-Dog

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pocket Adoption Coach is a woman’s personal tale of becoming a mother. With candour and heart, Michele Hengen invites us along on the journey of highs and lows that tracked her family’s evolution from aching couple to five-person glory, courtesy of an adoption of a little girl from Ukraine and a double adoption from a Canadian twin pregnancy. At numerous points along the way, the author was told that their plans could not be realized. But by developing a clear vision and keeping it in sight, she and her husband were at last able to realize their goal. Here, she shares the life lessons she picked up along the way, lessons that transcend the particulars of their adoptions and are applicable to anyone setting out along this rewarding—and often bewildering—path.

Download or read book Unstoppable written by Christine Caine and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2014-08-26 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ready or not, you are in the run of your life. Whether you run like lightning, or crawl at a snail’s pace, God has chosen you to run the race set before you. His word calls to you: “Let us throw off everything that hinders…let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.” (Heb 12:1-2) Not an athlete? Doesn’t matter. Still warming up? The race has already begun. Winded and limping? Keep moving forward. Stumbled or fallen? You have not been disqualified. Or maybe, while running in perfect stride, you’ve hit daunting obstacles. Do not give up! Why? Because this isn’t a one-person race. It’s a relay. You are not alone, but are part of a team assembled by God to achieve his purposes. And God is unstoppable. Fortunately, God has not left you on our own to muddle through the race untrained. His word and his story written into the lives of believers are filled with the wisdom to train you to successfully run the divine relay. Discover how to receive your baton, how to grasp firmly and carry forward all that God entrusts to you—his uncompromising truth, his piercing light, his radical change, his world-transforming love. And be trained in how to release what is no longer yours to carry so that every member of God’s team can press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called us heavenward in Christ Jesus. In Unstoppable, best-selling author, global evangelist, and human- trafficking activist, Christine Caine, mesmerizes us with true stories and eternal principles that equip us to run the race we were born to win, receiving and releasing the baton of faith in sync with our team, the body of Christ. God has plucked us out of eternity, positioned us in time, and given us gifts and talents to serve him in this generation to bring the light of Jesus Christ into a broken world. Our race is now. This is our time in history. We’ve been handed the baton of faith and asked to carry that light and dispel the darkness. If we receive and pass on the baton in the divine relay, we will be unstoppable.

Book Synopsis Secrets at Research 2022 by : BJ Jones
Download or read book Secrets at Research 2022 written by BJ Jones and published by Author House. This book was released on 2010-09-28 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secret of Research 2022 In life things are not always as they appear. The research community views the vast majority of the researchers as honest, giving, devoted scientist, most of whom are. This is a story of two that have no clue as to the meaning of any of these qualities: Honest: If they can get away with it, so what if it takes a little lie? Giving: Sure, as long as they are the recipients. Devoted: By all means to the all mighty dollar. It is hard to comprehend anyone with such wonderful families could be so using, abusing and deceptive as these two Doctors. For years the two have used their positions in the research community to offer help to those with money and wish to start a family and for some reason are unable to conceive. For the right price they will help them, if things go wrong, so what. That's how it is with black market procedures preformed in a research lab, no matter how elegant they have made it. The customer has no-one to turn to if things go wrong. They are so intent upon doing others in, that they have forgotten one very important fact in business: `Be careful who you trust.' With the government moving in on them they have no clue as to who the true informant is. We can only hope they get what they deserve in the end!

Book excerpt: Life on a cattle station in Australia’s unforgiving Northern Territory is rough. The extreme heat, humidity, insects, dust, isolation, and predators forge impenetrable bonds among those who can survive here. The people are just as hardened—and just as unforgiving—as the wild lands they fight to tame. In 1987, Clare Daine, a schoolteacher from Melbourne, takes up the job of governess to identical triplets at the Opium Creek station. She’s shocked to discover that the “homestead” is little more than an old tin shed with limited electricity. Her employer, Jack Marlow, a narcissistic alcoholic, is extremely demanding, and the other men of the station are as raw around the edges as the station itself. Three years before Clare’s arrival, the triplets’ mother, Lily, disappeared during a brutal wet-season storm. Now, doubt has left the close-knit community nervous, suspicious, and aggrieved. When Wanatjiti, Lily’s renegade stallion, returns, old wounds are opened, and unanswered questions rise again. Ngunintja, the triplets’ grandmother, has her own theories about what really happened during that fateful storm. And now nightmares tear Clare’s sleep apart. Her dedication to the children is the only thing that keeps her from fleeing the horrors of this life. Slowly, she comes to understand the love-hate relationship they all share with each other and with the land itself. Clare’s single-minded determination to discover the truth behind Lily’s disappearance puts her own safety at risk. How far will she go to solve the mystery?

Book Synopsis Gendered Rural Spaces by : Pia Olsson
Download or read book Gendered Rural Spaces written by Pia Olsson and published by Suomalaisen Kirjallisuuden Seura. This book was released on 2009-12-22 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rural spaces are connected with different cultural, economic, social and political codes and meanings. In this book these meanings are analysed through gender. The articles concretely show the process of producing gender and the ways in which accepted gender-based behaviour has been constructed at different times and in different groups. Discussion of gendered spaces leads to wider questions such as power relations and displacement in society. The changing rural processes are analysed on the micro level, and the focus is set on how these changes affect people's everyday lives. Answers are looked for questions like how are individuals responding to these changes? What are their strategies, solutions and tactics? How have they experienced the change process?
