Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Submerse yourself in this dynamic collection of twelve soulful stories. From Harry Styles fanfic to a magical fantasy holiday tale to a deeply moving story about a young girl and her seafaring grandpa, the twelve pieces included here encourage an open mind, a loving heart and that you do your best to honor yourself (because this is not always easy but it’s important) and live a life true to what is really in your heart and soul. Being hardworking and understanding that believing in yourself is the way to go. I’ve never felt comfortable doing things or accepting things simply because “it’s the way it’s always been done”. Why not throw out all the comparisons to “the norm” that we may have made. Those types of ideals and comparisons are stifling to the true, one-of-a-kind magic that is YOU. Follow along with The Misplaced Mermaids as they march to the beats of their own fantastic drums. Stories included: Backstage, Desert, Graveyard, Guarded, Midnight, Mistletoe, Moonlight, Native, Never, Rhinestone, Textbook and Urban.

Grounded in cultural anthropology, folklore studies, and intellectual rigor, A Mermaid's Tale also draws on literature, poetry, and mythology for its insights.

Book excerpt: Every wish counts. Every wish matters. Without them, life would lack surprise and be far less wonderful and good. When last year’s Christmas wish goes ungranted for the first time in her life, Lovie Watson accepts that it is a sign it’s time to stop believing in magic and start living in reality as an adult. What she doesn’t know is that the wish granting sentry assigned to her since childhood has been doing everything in his power to make the wish happen. Without success. Anden of the Valiant has until midnight this Christmas Eve to grant Lovie’s selfless wish and keep her light and faith alive… if he can just figure out how to do it without breaking the most sacred of his kind’s ancient and time-honored rules. Namely to never insert oneself personally in the granting of a wish. But if that is the only way to protect and preserve her unique trust in the universe, he may not have a choice. The consequence of a selfless wish going ungranted has always been devastating to both the wisher and the sentry. Both the Watsons and the Valiant have suffered through the pain of an ungranted selfless wish once before. To put both families through it again would be utterly cruel. Will it all be left to Fate? Or might Lovie and her Valiant sentry have the courage to redefine the rules and keep the magic of the season alive in the hearts of millions?

Book Synopsis Trauma in Contemporary Literature by : Marita Nadal
Download or read book Trauma in Contemporary Literature written by Marita Nadal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-03-26 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trauma in Contemporary Literature analyzes contemporary narrative texts in English in the light of trauma theory, including essays by scholars of different countries who approach trauma from a variety of perspectives. The book analyzes and applies the most relevant concepts and themes discussed in trauma theory, such as the relationship between individual and collective trauma, historical trauma, absence vs. loss, the roles of perpetrator and victim, dissociation, nachträglichkeit, transgenerational trauma, the process of acting out and working through, introjection and incorporation, mourning and melancholia, the phantom and the crypt, postmemory and multidirectional memory, shame and the affects, and the power of resilience to overcome trauma. Significantly, the essays not only focus on the phenomenon of trauma and its diverse manifestations but, above all, consider the elements that challenge the aporias of trauma, the traps of stasis and repetition, in order to reach beyond the confines of the traumatic condition and explore the possibilities of survival, healing and recovery.

Book Synopsis The Mermaid and the Minotaur by : Dorothy Dinnerstein
Download or read book The Mermaid and the Minotaur written by Dorothy Dinnerstein and published by Other Press, LLC. This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most significant and enduring texts in psychology and gender studies, now with a new introduction by Gloria Steinem. Since its publication in 1976, Dorothy Dinnerstein’s The Mermaid and the Minotaur has been recognized as one of the most significant contributions to modern feminist thought. The book, translated into at least seven languages, is widely used in women’s studies courses and is an influential text outside academia as well. On a level with Simone de Beauvoir’s The Second Sex, it has remained intensely relevant to a wide audience due to its pioneering message of equality. In this work, Dinnerstein challenges the ideology underlying the female monopoly of childcare and demonstrates the importance of men taking a similarly active role in parenting. A seminal feminist text, The Mermaid and the Minotaur brilliantly integrates feminist theory with Kleinian psychoanalytical theory.
