Book Synopsis The In-Betweens: The Spiritualists, Mediums, and Legends of Camp Etna by : Mira Ptacin
Download or read book The In-Betweens: The Spiritualists, Mediums, and Legends of Camp Etna written by Mira Ptacin and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young writer travels to Maine to tell the unusual story of America’s longest-running camp devoted to mysticism and the world beyond. They believed they would live forever. So begins Mira Ptacin’s haunting account of the women of Camp Etna—an otherworldly community in the woods of Maine that has, since 1876, played host to generations of Spiritualists and mediums dedicated to preserving the links between the mortal realm and the afterlife. Beginning her narrative in 1848 with two sisters who claimed they could speak to the dead, Ptacin reveals how Spiritualism first blossomed into a national practice during the Civil War, yet continues—even thrives—to this very day. Immersing herself in this community and its practices—from ghost hunting to releasing trapped spirits to water witching— Ptacin sheds new light on our ongoing struggle with faith, uncertainty, and mortality. Blending memoir, ethnography, and investigative reportage, The In-Betweens offers a vital portrait of Camp Etna and its enduring hold on a modern culture that remains as starved for a deeper sense of connection and otherworldliness as ever.

Book excerpt: Fifteen-year-old Jennifer Brice Hamilton has been subjected to her mother’s new way of life ever since her parents’ divorce two years earlier - a move to a lower tax bracket in Chicago, an undesirable school, and her mother’s newest boyfriend: Phil. Jennifer rebels. Her mother’s answer to the “handful-slash-Jennifer” is to pack her up and send her to her grandma’s, whom Jennifer has not seen in almost three years. Her mother’s lusty plan is for Jennifer to reside there 'til Christmas. Jennifer captures her life in Flamingo Junction, Florida, with her grandmother in an ongoing diary of sorts - a sketchbook that she has titled Jenniferology - The Study of Jennifer. Jennifer’s grandmother, Mama Rudeen, lives in a retirement community called Camelot in North Florida. Mama Rudeen is not what Jennifer expected, nor are her grandmother’s friends - the gals: Miss Maggie Pearl, Miss Addie, and Miss Gaynell...and the guy - Sir Stuckie. Jennifer envisioned octogenarians sitting around waiting to take their last breath. She discovers that retirees have a zest for life. And, more importantly, they define to Jennifer what unconditional love truly means. Maybe it takes a retirement village to raise a child.

Book excerpt: One woman learns the secrets of the five Jaeger brothers in the new romance from New York Times bestselling author Penelope Douglas. On the other side of town, in the dark glades, under the rain… Macon is the oldest. Thirty-one. Ex-Marine. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him smile. Army is twenty-eight. A single dad with the most beautiful green eyes. He has no idea who he is, if not a Jaeger brother. Iron will be in prison soon. You’d never think it to meet him. He’s a nice guy, actually. But he can’t stop reacting to everything. Dallas is the one I hate. Twenty-one, cruel, and selfish. He takes and then throws away whatever’s left. And Trace is mine. Or he was for about two seconds. No one can tame him for long. Not that I ever wanted to. It was fun, but now I need to go home. Back to my side of the tracks. Away from the swamps and these men. To my parents’ big house. On my clean street. Where I’m never dirty or messy or hot. And I will. I’ll leave first thing tomorrow morning. I just want to crash on the couch tonight. Their house is dark and quiet, everyone else is asleep. Except for one. He sees me crying and comes at me from behind. I let him wrap his arms around my body and hold me tightly. His breath is on my neck, his fingers are in my hair, and he doesn’t stop there. I don’t think it was Trace.

Faith’s non-profit needs money. And I control a sizable grant. My answer should be no. But one look into those blue eyes, and “never again” turns into “again and again and again.” And if I’m not careful, it just might turn into forever.

Like all Sara Whitney books, Tempting Fate is bursting with playful banter, upbeat vibes, and a very happy ending. “Sweet, spicy, emotional, and hilarious.” Sarah, Book Obsession Confessions

Book Synopsis Breaking & Mending by : Joanna Cannon
Download or read book Breaking & Mending written by Joanna Cannon and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2019-09-26 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'One of the most beautiful books you will ever read' Kate Mosse In this powerful memoir, Joanna Cannon tells her story as a junior doctor in visceral, heart-rending snapshots. We walk with her through the wards, facing extraordinary and daunting moments: from attending her first post-mortem, sitting with a patient through their final moments, to learning the power of a well- or badly chosen word. These moments, and the small sustaining acts of kindness and connection that punctuate hospital life, teach her that emotional care and mental health can be just as critical as restoring a heartbeat. In a profession where weakness remains a taboo, this moving, beautifully written book brings to life the vivid, human stories of doctors and patients - and shows us why we need to take better care of those who care for us.

Book Synopsis Lord of the Afternoon by : Pablo Capanna
Download or read book Lord of the Afternoon written by Pablo Capanna and published by Guid Publications. This book was released on 2015-09-14 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Cordwainer Smith" is the pen name that Paul Linebarger used to write some of the most remarkable pages of science fiction of all time. The creator of these curious stories, which took place in a remote future but overflowed with allusions to the present day, was a complex, contradictory and decidedly undefinable character. During World War II, he helped organize one of the United States' first intelligence services. Within this framework, he wrote a manual on psychological warfare because he believed persuading the enemy was more virtuous than destroying it. He toyed with characters like Rambo and James Bond long before others ever did, but never fully adopted them. Before assuming the identity of "Cordwainer Smith," he suffered a deep crisis that gave him a glimpse into madness, but he emerged unscathed just as he was beginning to drag his therapist into it as well. He remained connected to the world of espionage by questioning and raising suspicions of stories of where it might be possible to find the Kennedy brothers and Martin Luther King, and likewise with regard to the civil rights movement, and even Marilyn Monroe. In these cases, the author's personality is equally as, if not more, fascinating than his work, which allows this book to not be bogged down in literary analysis and compels immersion into the complexities of human conscience.
