Book excerpt: Reader Advisory: This story is for mature audiences only and features intensely erotic situations, bdsm play, discipline, pain play, bondage, humiliation, submissiveness and dominance. All characters are 18 or older. It's been three days since Adam arrived at the master's house, but when looking back on them he remembers only a whirlwind of new experiences that overwhelm any sense of time. In only that short period it has fulfilled all the lofty hopes that brought him here, but it has awakened new deeper, secret hopes as well. In quiet moments, he even dares to think that it is special to the master, too, even as experienced and worldly as he is. As together they delve ever deeper into the submissive dominant relationship and push at the boundaries of what Adam thought himself capable of and comfortable with, the promises that they would not become too attached begin to erode. In the heat of the moment – and the moments get very hot indeed – who can say what will be said and what plans may be changed to address these unexpected feelings? Excerpt: He had lowered himself so that he was sitting on my thighs, his skin against mine. His hand rested on my hip as he continued to hold my face towards his with his other hand. It was a symbolic gesture. I could never have looked away now. He was praising me for things I had never known about myself, but now that he had said them and said that he liked them, I couldn't bear the thought of being any other way. So I looked at him, submissive and patient for him to do what he clearly wanted to so badly. He produced a match from his pocket, struck it, and lit the candle before setting it aside on the floor. The clean scent of its smoke infused the air. "Do you trust me, Adam?" he asked. "Yes, Master." "Good," he said. "That's good. Because this isn't something I would do with just anyone." "I trust you, Master," I repeated. But even so, my chest felt tight. He laid a hand on my on the pale, sensitive skin of my stomach. He could feel my slight trembling. He could see the trepidation that, in spite of my need to please and be brave and be open-minded, I could not shut out entirely. "If it becomes too much for you, I want you to tell me," he said. "I want you to say so, alright? I want you to say 'Awry.'" "Awry," I repeated. "This is a safe room," he said, "where two people who trust each other can explore things that they would not do with other people." I watched him, still at a complete loss for what was about to happen. I pulled lightly at my wrists. The bondage I understood. The bondage I liked. But it also made what was coming all the more terrifying, whatever it was. But I was grateful that he was speaking this way with me. It reminded me why I was not, in my conscious mind, afraid.

Book excerpt: Reader Advisory: This story is for mature audiences only and features intensely erotic situations, bdsm play, spanking, forced exhibition, public humiliation and sex, submissiveness and dominance. All characters are 18 or older. Adam's dominant, Damien, has applied for the two of them to become members in the highly exclusive Langston Society, a men's BDSM network of the city's most powerful and influential. Though Damien Roberts surely falls within that category, he agrees that they must go through the Langston's rigorous screening process. Rather than questionnaires or resumes, the Langston uses only one metric to assess potential partners: the worthiness of the submissive. So it is that Adam finds himself standing alone before a gathering of the city's most powerful and sexually dominant men with only one task: obey.

Book excerpt: Reader Advisory: These stories are for mature audiences only and feature intensely erotic situations involving multiple men, bdsm play, discipline, spanking, humiliation, public sex, submissiveness and dominance. All characters are 18 or older. Adam's first hours in his new master's house have been intense ones, but he knows they have only scratched the surface. Before he has done little more than catch his breath, it's time to meet the other submissives in the master's household and learn just exactly what he has gotten himself into. Far from being allowed to wade in slowly, Adam's initiation into this tight little community will mean getting tossed directly into the center of its many different flavors of discipline and power play. By the time his first morning has come to a close, he will have a lot more to think about than why there isn't a number on the mailbox. Lessons in Submission: The Second Trilogy follows Adam over the course of his week as a submissive in the house of discipline run by the mysterious leader of the Langston Society. What begins as a hesitant experiment in the world of forbidden pleasure quickly careens into something much more serious, and the promises that they would not become too attached begin to erode. In the heat of the moment – and the moments get very hot indeed – who can say what will become possible and what will remain unattainable fantasy? Excerpt I turned just enough to catch how Chris's face fell and reddened at the news. "I..." he began, but trailed off. "Up here." He drew a breath and stood. The legs of his chair made a scraping sound against the hardwood of the floor and he winced. "Here," Master repeated unsympathetically, pointing to a spot at the head of the table. Christopher moved into place on unsteady legs and then turned back to regard us - the audience of his humiliation and punishment - with that flushed face. He reddened very attractively, I noticed with slight envy. His cheeks took on a very soft glow and his eyes stayed very round as he watched Master. "Tell me," Master said to him as he stood at attention. "Tell what, sir?" he asked. "Why did you fail the inspection?" "I - I don't know, sir. I didn't know I had until you told me." "You know, Christopher, I don't really believe you." He looked at the ground, flustered and stammering. After a few seconds he fell silent and he closed his eyes. Master watched him coolly. Another moment ticked by and then he opened his eyes and raised them to meet Master's.

Book excerpt: Reader Advisory: These stories are for mature audiences only and feature intensely erotic situations involving multiple men, bdsm play, discipline, spanking, humiliation, public sex, submissiveness and dominance. All characters are 18 or older. Adam has always been curious about the kink lifestyle, but his exposure to it with his current partner has been a bit limited. But after an eye opening experience with couple acquaintance within the scene, Adam and Damien apply to become members in the highly exclusive Langston Society, a BDSM network of the city's most powerful and influential men. Rather than questionnaires or resumes, the Langston uses only one metric to assess potential couples: the worthiness of the submissive. So it is that Adam finds himself standing alone before a gathering of the city's most powerful and sexually dominant men with only one task: obey. Lessons in Submission: The First Trilogy follows Adam along the initial steps of his sexual adventure, first at the hands of his partner, then on the public stage of the Langston Society, and finally into the house of discipline established by one of the society's most prestigious members who, intrigued by Adam's charms, makes a rare offer to train him personally over the course of a week. Excerpt Slowly, as though he could sense my impatience, Jack's deep charcoal eyes turned towards me. "Adam," he said simply, "I'm glad you could come." "Master," I responded, eager to try the new form of address. He smiled. "You've heard that word, have you? Good. We'll teach you the meaning of that word very thoroughly before you leave here." A slight shiver ran down my spine. God, was I already getting hard? He stood and walked over to me. "I like a new toy that arrives early in the morning," he said. "There is so much time left in the day to try it out." He laid a finger under my chin, tilting my face up to meet his. With a slight pressure, he bid me stand and I rose to my feet, my eyes never leaving his. "You've been on my mind a very great deal over the past twelve hours," he said to me. The number surprised me. Had it really only been that long? "I'm usually such a patient man," he went on, sliding a finger within the neck of my shirt, just brushing my skin. "What is it about you that so undermines my self-control?" I trembled slightly at his touch and the tone of his voice. His words were deep with intensity, and yet I did not believe him for a moment when he said his self-control was compromised. He seemed to have so much of it that it bled over and controlled me, too, without him being entirely conscious of it. Simply having him standing in front of me, looking and touching me, was enough to paralyze me until next he told me to move. "And all nicely wrapped," he murmured. "I can always tell an outfit chosen with care. We'll put these clothes somewhere safe for the week. I wouldn't want them to wrinkle." His gaze held mine as he began to strip my clothes from me. A slight flush rose to my cheeks but I did not break eye contact. My God, he didn't beat around the bush. There was the slightest hint of a challenge in his deliberate movements. I am making you naked in front of me, his eyes were telling me. There is no secret or thought or emotion you possess that I cannot choose to uncover. You walked in my door, knowing who I was and what I wanted, and now you will be utterly mine.

Book excerpt: Reader Advisory: This story is for mature audiences only and features intensely erotic situations involving multiple men, bdsm play, discipline, spanking, humiliation, submissiveness and dominance. All characters are 18 or older. Adam has been in Master's house for almost a week now: doing his best to live up to his expectations and being brought back into line when necessary. Things have started to get intense, and in his struggle to make sense of his growing feelings Adam has made a misstep that will earn him the sternest punishment of all, and once again in front of the whole household. But despite his strictness, Adam's master is not a vindictive man. When debts have been paid, what he really wants is some time alone with Adam to begin to understand what exactly he feels for his new eager and ever tempting submissive. Excerpt: I turned just enough to catch how Chris's face fell and reddened at the news. "I..." he began, but trailed off. "Up here." He drew a breath and stood.

Book excerpt: Reader Advisory: These stories are for mature audiences only and feature intensely erotic situations, bdsm play, degradation, spanking, humiliation, discipline, punishment, submission and dominance. All characters are 18 or older. Discipline and Domination contains three Gay BDSM-themed stories of intense eroticism, dominance and submission, discipline, spanking, and humiliation in all forms. His Turn to Submit After a series of relationships sabotaged by his own controlling ways, Daniel returns to the man he remembers being happiest with, only to find him changed. Connor has learned a lot about himself and about the world since they were last together, and if Daniel wants to be with him now, he will be the one to surrender control. A fulfilling and charged relationship may await, but only after Connor has made Daniel suffer for his past transgressions and made it very, very clear who is the dominant and who is the submissive. Desperate to Be Dominated Mitchell has been meeting his dom irregularly for the better part of 3 months. He has never experienced anything as powerful, fulfilling, or seductive as his submission to the mysterious Mr. A. But their meetings are sporadic and he is desperate for more. Tormented by needs he never knew he had and which only Mr. A can satisfy, he searches the nearby residential areas until he glimpses Mr. A through an open window. He approaches the house, prepared to beg for more, only to uncover an unwelcome surprise and reap the penalties and pleasures of his disobedient arrival. Learning to Please As much as his master appreciates Richard's inviting, submissive body, his behavior can leave something to be desired. On a morning when Richard oversleeps and goes to his master later than expected, his interrogation reveals that he often touches himself after their sessions together when he has not been allowed release. His disobedience, his master informs him, reveals not only that he does not understand what it is to obey, but that he does not understand the great pleasure and gratitude that lie within true submission. But lest he worry, the master is here to instruct him. Excerpt: Google has deemed this excerpt too explicit to be displayed.

Book excerpt: Reader Advisory: This story is for mature audiences only and features intensely erotic situations, bdsm play, bondage, submissiveness and dominance. All characters are 18 or older. After an intense, almost overpowering experience at the hands of the Langston Society's mysterious leader, Adam has been offered the opportunity to spend a week with him and begin to explore his true potential as a submissive. It means temporary separation from Damien, but the allure of what Adam has tasted is simply too strong to ignore. Once reunited with the man whose touch thrills and controls him so perfectly, Adam begins the long road of self-discovery - rich with challenges and with pleasures - as he begins to learn what it is to have a master and just exactly who his is. Excerpt: Without turning, Jack addressed us. "And you, too, Ben. My thanks for seeing Adam in." Ben rose and backed towards the door. "I know you dislike the task," Jack added before he had left, "But yours is such a warm personality. I couldn't think of having the other boys do it in your place when I want our newest guest to feel welcome." He blushed deeply at the compliment, his eyes fixed on the floor. "Thank you, Master," he said softly. Jack nodded in dismissal and Ben left. Slowly, as though he could sense my impatience, Jack's deep charcoal eyes turned towards me. "Adam," he said simply, "I'm glad you could come." "Master," I responded, eager to try the new form of address. He smiled. "You've heard that word, have you? Good. We'll teach you the meaning of that word very thoroughly before you leave here." A slight shiver ran down my spine. God, was I already getting hard? He stood and walked over to me.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic theology is in need of a new genre. In "Transgressive Devotion" Natalie Wigg-Stevenson articulates a theological vision of that genre as performance art. She argues that theology done as performance art stops trying to describe who God is, and starts trying to make God appear. Recognising that the act of studying theology or practicing ministry is always a performance, where the boundaries between what we see, feel, experience and learn are not just blurred but potentially invisible, Wigg-Stevenson brings together ethnographic theological fieldwork, historical and contemporary Christian theological traditions, and performance artworks themselves. A daring vision of theology which will energise anybody feeling ‘boxed in’ by the discipline, Transgressive Devotion blurs borders between orthodoxy, heterodoxy and heresy to reveal how the very act of doing theology makes God and humanity vulnerable to each other. This is theology which is a liturgy of Divine incantation. In other words: this is theology which is also prayer.

Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together

Book excerpt: *One of Glamour’s Best Books of 2020* Popular podcast host and personal finance expert Lindsay Goldwert explores what professional dominatrixes can teach us about confidence, power, and happiness. Imagine, for a moment, a world where the usual power dynamic is turned on its head. Where women not only stop apologizing, but seize—and enjoy—control. This is the quickly mainstreaming world of BDSM (bondage, discipline, sadism, masochism)—and it has a lot to teach women about empowerment, negotiation, open-mindedness, and more. Journalist Lindsay Goldwert, intrigued by this seismic cultural shift, traveled across the United States to meet the stars of the subculture, who spoke frankly with her about their lives and work. In this “lively, funny, thoughtful channeling of wisdom” (Sara Benincasa, author of Real Artists Have Day Jobs), these Alpha women show you how you can reset the power dynamic in any situation to get what you want—whether it’s from a husband, a boss, or partner. They share strategies for revolutionizing not only your sex life, but your career, your relationships, and most importantly, your inner foundations. With bondage gear popping up on the big screen, the runway, the red carpet, and in celebrity lingerie lines, BDSM is officially moving out of the dungeon and into the sun. Let Bow Down help you learn how to use it. “Whether your fantasies lie in the bedroom or the boardroom, Lindsay will give you the courage to go forth and dominate.” (Sarah Cooper, author of How to Be Successful without Hurting Men’s Feelings).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do we read? What do we cherish in a book? What is the nature of a masterpiece? What do Alice Munro, Albert Camus, and the great Polish experimentalist Witold Gombrowicz have in common? In the tradition of Nabokov, Calvino, and Kundera, Douglas Glover’s new essay collection fuses his long experience as an author with his love of philosophy and his passion for form. Call it a new kind of criticism or an operator’s manual for readers and writers, The Erotics of Restraint extends Glover’s long and deeply personal conversation with great books and their authors. With the same dazzling mix of emotion and idea that characterizes his fiction, he dissects narrative and shows us how and why it works, why we love it, and how that makes us human. Erudite and obsessively detailed, inventive, confessional, and cheeky, these essays offer a brilliant clarity, a respite in an age of doubt. They raise the bar.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Passion of the Western Mind is a complete guide to Western civilisation and the philosophical ideas that have shaped our world view. From Plato to Hegel, from Augustine to Nietzsche, from Copernicus to Freud, Richard Tarnas described profound philosophical concepts simply, but without simplifying them. Ten years in the making, The Passion of the Western Mind was hailed as an instant classic on publication. In it, Tarnas provides a compelling account of the evolution of the Western mind and its changing conception of reality. Advances on several fronts - in philosophy, psychology, religous studies and the history of science - have shed new light on this remarkable evolution and Tarnas draws together these advances to set forth a new perspective for understanding out culture's intellectual and spiritual history. The result is a complete liberal education in a single volume.
