Book excerpt: The scandalous bestseller about a woman desperate for love... and for the physical release she's never experienced. Back in print for the first time in sixty years! Jenny Adams fears men...and is disgusted by sex...and yet longs to experience true love and searing, physical bliss. So she gives herself to men in the violent hope that it isn't an empty dream. Through a disasterous marriage and multiple relationships, she desperately searches for a man she can truly love and who can, finally, unlock and satisfy her deepest carnal desires...something she fears is a cruel, unattainable myth. Or is it? Her journey to find out is an unforgettable saga of romance, passion and hope. This novel, first published in 1950, was one of the books that launched Fawcett's famed Gold Medal line of paperback originals....selling hundreds of thousands of copies over multiple printings throughout the decade. And yet, nothing is known about "Lillian Colter." She doesn't seem to have written a book before or since The Awakening of Jenny, nor did she do any interviews, leading some collectors to suspect "Lillian Colter" was a pseudonym for another author. If so, others argue, why didn't the publisher capitalize on the massive success of this book to churn out more titles under her name? Is Lillian Colter a real author? Did she only write one bestseller, helping to launch a legendary imprint... and then disappear into obscurity? It's a mystery.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By focusing on one particular re-education institution, this book offers a multifaceted analysis of practices of diagnosis and curing what was defined as «delinquency», «criminality» or «disorderly behaviour» at the turn of the twentieth century. The study provides an important corrective to the existing accounts of re-education by proposing an approach in which institutional practices are analysed both from above and from below. The book draws attention to the process of reforming identities - the construction of reformatory identities - as the core of residential re-education. Special emphasis is placed on the interplay of notions of gender and social background. The book is based on extensive archival research drawing from a wide range of new and neglected sources. The primary material includes a unique collection of documents produced by the girls of the Vuorela State Reform School in Finland. Narrative analysis of correspondence, and careful scrutiny of the official sources created for re-educational purposes, form a basis for the investigation of the interaction between pupils' own self-expression and the aims of re-education in the construction of reformed identities. The practices developed in Finland are carefully contextualised in the European history of re-education.

Book excerpt: Stop hitting the spiritual snooze button. Would you describe your walk with God as fresh and exciting? Would you describe your spiritual life as vibrant and passionate? If not, would you like these attributes to be the norm in your everyday relationship with God? Are you ready to experience an awakening? Awakening helps you stir up your slumbering soul. You’ll discover how to break out of your season of dryness or get off to a great start either in the New Year or the next season in life. Take your faith-walk from a “going through the motions” or “have to” mindset to the stimulating, fresh “want to” experience of enjoying God’s presence—24/7. Weems encourages you to surrender fully, to discover the right kind of fuel for the journey, and to learn a new way to pray and fast. This lifestyle is not based on rules or religion, but on a deep, satisfying, motivating relationship with God. Included in Awakening is a 21-Day Plan that will guide you through the principles that ensure a lasting, fresh relationship with God—even in a world where everything quickly becomes stale. “It’s time to wake up and put an end to spiritual sluggishness! I promise this year will be the best of your life if it is your best year spiritually.” – Stovall Weems

Book excerpt: Jenny is the story of a sweet and bright eleven-year-old girl who has had to grow up too quickly. Her birth mother, Natasha, a single, drug-addicted parent, had five children by different men who have abandoned her. The effects of drug abuse on Natasha had opened a vacancy in the home for the position of "mother." The only willing applicant had been Jenny who stepped into the role of managing to care for her younger siblings when her mother was out. A tragic series of events leads to the inevitable decision of removing the children from Natasha and placing them with a loving, young couple who eventually adopted all of them when Jenny was six. Jenny continually finds it challenging to trust anyone.Haunted by her perceived responsibility of protecting her siblings, Jenny encounters a series of twists and turns in her teenage years that keep triggering her issues of anger and unforgiveness towards her birth mother and places her at risk for repeating Natasha's mistakes. However, Jenny discovers that God, who has a plan for Jenny, and open adoption are the keys for healing.

Download or read book Let LIGHT descend on Earth written by Marcella R. Womack and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-11-11 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A true story, this narrative covers a period of eight years, between 1985-1993. It is the story of a group that gathered in the heartland of the U.S. as they listened week after week to channeled Teachings coming from The Realms of Light. It is told by one of the group members who was present throughout the eight years of the group’s existence and the one who is responsible for the three previously published volumes that contain the channeled Teachings of The Aquarius Materials. (Xlibris) The photo on the cover of this book (volume four) was taken on Friday, October 17, 1986 and shows a large shaft of LIGHT coming into the room and shining down onto the channel’s body. The group was told from the beginning that the Earth was moving from the third dimension into the fourth and fifth dimensions and that there was a huge influx of LIGHT coming into Earth during this 200,000 Year World Age Change. Much more than a 2,000 or a 26,000 year change, this represents the Earth and humanity beginning it ́s in-volution back into the LIGHT. Although the LIGHT seen in the photos was not apparent to the naked eye, many of the participants said they could “feel” the higher vibrations often when they came to listen to The Aquarius Teachers. These LIGHT Energies propelled many in the group to begin to change their lives and an amazing sense of spiritual community was experienced. The content of this book is the “backdrop” behind the three books of Series I, The Aquarius Materials. It is the final book of this Series and perhaps the best overview for one beginning to read these Teaching. This body of Spiritual Teachings heralds a time of a New Dispensation upon the Earth, where the Spiritual Nature of Existence is to become known once more by people all over the world. The Teachers said that this is the time prophesied in the Christian Scriptures as the “Second Coming” and it is NOT to be an end-of-the-world-time but rather a time when humanity will awaken to the truth of Christ’s Teachings about LOVE. Humanity was never meant to disconnect from the spiritual dimension and forget the kinship that is ours as children of God. As Jesus attained that level of God Union called the Christ-Consciousness during his lifetime, we are meant to once again reach for Christ-Consciousness as we, ourselves, go inward to “Seek the Kingdom.” This Soul growth can transform both our individual lives and the Way we Live on Earth. The book is divided into two major sections – Part I - “The channeling years” (1985-1987) and Part II – “A Time and a House Called Aquarius” (1988-1993). (Photos of group activities are included with each chapter.) The Auarius Materials: Series I - This is the Overview book; three other books make up the Series.

Download or read book Gothic Traditions and Narrative Techniques in the Fiction of Eudora Welty written by Ruth D. Weston and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 1994-11-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, Ruth D. Weston probes the whole of Eudora Welty’s work to reveal the writer’s close relationship to the gothic tradition. Specifically, Weston shows how Welty employs the theme of enclosure and escape and settings that convey a sense of mystery—gothic adaptations both—to create certain narrative techniques in her fiction. Differentiating at the outset between the Gothic genre as opposed to elements of the gothic tradition, and acknowledging both critics’ and Welty’s own reluctance to link her writing with the former, Weston plunges in and brilliantly discloses the relationship Welty’s writing has to both, and in doing so describes a rich literary heritage to which Welty belongs. She shows how the tradition of adapting European Gothic conventions to American settings has come down to us through writers such as Hawthorne, particularly through the short story, and continues in Welty’s fiction. Among Welty’s narrative techniques that Weston discusses are plot structures built around betrayal and captivity, reversal of characters’ gender roles, a tone sometimes similar to that of gothic genres such as the fairy tale or ghost story, and affective settings in “gothic spaces” such as the woods along the Natchez Trace. These techniques, Weston explains, help Welty in illustrating restrictions placed on the individual’s search for selfhood by human relationships, cultural expectations, and memory. In addition to examining the texts themselves, Weston draws on Welty’s critical and theoretical writings and her letters and other materials in archival collections. She also gleans insights from the work of contemporary narrative theorists, feminist critics, and recent commentators on the Gothic. In the course of her presentation, she offers some excellent new assessments of Welty’s relation to the “female Gothic” and the “Southern Gothic” and to William Faulkner and Jane Austen. This book is one of the most informed studies to date of Welty’s relation to the literary mainstream of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Welty scholars as well as general readers of American and southern literature will gain a deep appreciation for Welty’s imaginative and original response to the Gothic literary tradition.

Book excerpt: Jenny's DESTINY Banquet's flight 'neath summer's cloak, There! Danger waits, he's beauty's host! "How much Troy?" One statement misunderstood will send a young wife running out of her home on a rain soaked Seattle night, fulfilling a prophecy written hours before and thousands of miles away on an island in the Caribbean. "I hit the ripe age of twenty-four..." Said through the slow lick of a chocolate and strawberry smudged finger. Even though he knows it is an act purposely done to distract him, Troy cannot take his eyes off that mouth or the long slender index finger. For Jenny Kendricks it is a brash flirtation out of character initiated to save her friend Chelsea from the man who frightens her. Moods roil and tempers escalate ending with a desperate escape through a rain soaked garden. One click of a gun in a flash of lightning reveals imminent danger triggering the next two lines of verse. Four journeys now begin Born of envy, Bequeathed thru sin. Destiny will be the invisible force that pulls two lives apart in the attempt to bring two others together. Like a stone cast into a lake, one interaction at a banquet table sends out ripples to affect many lives. Some must learn to love, others the courage to trust, while one must find strength to survive.

Download or read book Conspicuous and Inconspicuous Discriminations in Everyday Life written by Victor N. Shaw and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-19 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In everyday life, people negotiate on issues, entertain offers and counteroffers, and gain or lose in terms of economic capital, political power, communal status, and social influence. Although life goes on in the form of compromise, feelings of discrimination or misfortune haunt consciously or unconsciously in the minds of living individuals. History continues in the spirit of forgiveness, but residues of exploitation or injustice remain conspicuously or inconspicuously on the records of progressing civilizations. This study follows an average everyday life to compare individuals with individuals, individuals with organizations, and organizations with organizations in their everyday interactions. Through the eyes of the person, conspicuous and inconspicuous discriminations by one against another, whether individual or organizational, are identified in different occasions, on a typical day, at home, in the workplace, in the community, within the country, around the world, and throughout the course of life. In the style of Socrates, Plato, Wittgenstein, and other classical scholarship, this study uses ordinary, typical situations to demonstrate critical points, reveal subtle connections, and present important arguments. It offers vivid examples for what social scientists strive to find: the extraordinary from the ordinary, the unfamiliar from the familiar, the different from the similar, and the significant from the trivial. This study offers an opportunity for readers to reflect upon their social experiences, and rethink and reshape their everyday acts and actions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researching Language in Schools and Communities is designed for those who intend to carry out and / or study research in children's language development, teaching English as a second language, children's literature, casual conversation, social class and language variation, classroom discourse, reading processes, teaching writing, literacy and curriculum area learning, critical literacies and related areas. The contributors are among the foremost researchers in these fields. In this book they introduce approaches to help investigate such areas in applied langauge research using systemic functional linguistics (SFL). A key purpose of this text is to facilitate the further engagement of language researchers with SFL perspectives, encouraging more collaborative transdisciplinary work across different fields of study and theoretical approaches in projects of mutual concern. The first two chapters outline the key aspects of SFL descriptions of the relationships between language and social context and the inter-related descriptions of text structures and grammatical systems. This provides sufficient background to enable those coming new to SFL to make productive, critical use of the research reviewed, studies described and advice on project design provided in the following chapters. Nevertheless, the book is an introductory resource and particular attention has been paid throughout to the extensive provision of clear references to more elaborated accounts of the important issues discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On War and Writing offers for the first time a selection of Hynes's essays and introductions that explore the traditions of war writing from the twentieth century to the present. Hynes takes as a given that war itself--the battlefield uproar of actual combat--is unimaginable for those who weren't there, yet we have never been able to turn away from it. We want to know what war is really like: for a soldier on the Somme; a submariner in the Pacific; a bomber pilot over Germany; a tank commander in the Libyan desert. The essays in this book range from the personal (Hynes's experience working with documentary master Ken Burns, his recollections of his own days as a combat pilot) to the critical (explorations of the works of writers and artists such as Thomas Hardy, E. E. Cummings, and Cecil Day-Lewis).

Download or read book Consulting the Genius of the Place written by Wes Jackson and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Locavore leaders such as Alice Waters, Michael Pollan, and Barbara Kingsolver all speak of the need for sweeping changes in how we get our food. A longtime leader of this movement is Wes Jackson, who for decades has taken it upon himself to speak for the land, to speak for the soil itself. Here, he offers a manifesto toward a conceptual revolution: Jackson asks us to look to natural ecosystems—or, if one prefers, nature in general—as the measure against which we judge all of our agricultural practices. Jackson believes the time is right to do away with annual monoculture grains, which are vulnerable to national security threats and are partly responsible for the explosion in our healthcare costs. Soil erosion and the poisons polluting our water and air—all associated with agriculture from its beginnings—foretell a population with its natural fertility greatly destroyed. In this eloquent and timely volume, Jackson argues we must look to nature itself to lead us out of the mess we've made. The natural ecosystems will tell us, if we listen, what should happen to the future of food.
