Book excerpt: A reimagining of one of Shakespeare's most well-read tragedies, by the contemporary, critically acclaimed master of domestic drama Henry Dunbar, the once all-powerful head of a global media corporation, is not having a good day. In his dotage he hands over care of the corporation to his two eldest daughters, Abby and Megan, but as relations sour he starts to doubt the wisdom of past decisions. Now imprisoned in Meadowmeade, an upscale sanatorium in rural England, with only a demented alcoholic comedian as company, Dunbar starts planning his escape. As he flees into the hills, his family is hot on his heels. But who will find him first, his beloved youngest daughter, Florence, or the tigresses Abby and Megan, so keen to divest him of his estate? Edward St Aubyn is renowned for his masterwork, the five Melrose novels, which dissect with savage and beautiful precision the agonies of family life. His take on King Lear, Shakespeare’s most devastating family story, is an excoriating novel for and of our times – an examination of power, money and the value of forgiveness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I vowed that from now on, I would become stronger and that once I was strong enough, I would exact my vengeance on those who had wronged me! *** Cadence was just a nobody in a world of werewolves and magical creatures. She was a weak and useless omega without elemental magic ability. Her wolf had never awakened, and she had never transformed. She had a powerful Alpha step-father, but he never protected her. Instead, he tortured her as if she was a slave. She wanted to remain positive, but how? When she felt the most helpless, she met Lance Gregory, the Alpha King of the Land of Culvis. Cadence fell hopelessly in love with him at first sight, but when she confessed her love to him, he rejected her in return. With tears and a broken heart, Cadence determined to change and began her journey of growth. Meanwhile, she could always catch a soft and alluring scent. As she got lost in that scent, it was like the world around her was beginning to shrink and shift into a hazy abyss. What did that scent mean? Would she be able to find her inner strength and realize her destiny? Would she be able to melt the cold heart of Lance in the process?
Download or read book Unseduced and Unshaken written by Rosalie De Rosset and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You can’t afford to live casually, haphazardly. No matter your age, you were born into a plethora of expectations of what it means to be a woman. How easily we assume impoverished views of womanhood as we hoist beauty and desirability above the more enduring traits of self-possession and dignity. We tend to live as divided and distracted selves, allowing our bodies and minds to drift to opposite poles while swapping our pursuit of God for tamer, lesser loves. This collection of essays is more than a call to modesty or chastity. It is a thoughtful provocation to speak well, read often, make choices that reflect the character of God, and even to establish a theology of play or leisure. Being intentional with your choices, cultivating your intellect, and taking seriously your voice determines not only what kind of person you are, but also what kind of woman you will be. “[Unseduced and Unshaken] raises the bar for young Christian women...It’s a call for all Christian women to examine their personal faith presuppositions, deliberately choose a life of Biblical ‘dignity,’ and to not be frightened to allow ‘theology to inform our choices.’” Just Between Us, Summer 2013 issue

Download or read book And He Will Take Your Daughters written by April D. Westbrook and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-04-23 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: April Westbrook explores the intentional inclusion of woman stories (those displaying significant female presence) within the David narrative in the books of Samuel. These stories are made prominent by the surprisingly high number of their occurrences as well as the sequentially progressive literary pattern in which they occur in the larger narrative. Westbrook shows that the dramatic and detailed accounts within the story repeatedly challenge the reader to consider the experiences of women and their contribution to the purpose of the larger narrative. When viewed collectively, these woman stories serve to stir the reader's responses in ways which systematically call into question the nature of the monarchy itself as a power system-both its impact upon the nation and upon the kings who rule. Although King David is often held up as a paragon of virtue, the experiences of the women in his life frequently reveal a different side of his character, and the reader must wrestle with the resultant ambiguity. In the process, the reader must also think deeply about the inevitably negative aspects of hierarchical social structures and why this biblical text is apparently designed to press the reader toward unavoidable and uncomfortable personal confrontation with these realities concerning the use of power within community life.
Download or read book Goodnight Desdemona Good Morning Juliet Play written by Ann-Marie MacDonald and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2012-10-23 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Goodnight Desdemona (Good Morning Juliet) is an exuberant comedy and feminist revisioning of Shakespeare’s Othello and Romeo and Juliet. It takes us from a dusty office in Canada’s Queen’s University, into the fraught and furious worlds of two of Shakespeare’s best-known tragedies, and turns them upside-down. Constance Ledbelly is the beleaguered “spinster” academic, and unlikely heroine who embarks on a quest for Shakespearean origins and, ultimately, her own identity. When she deciphers an ancient and neglected manuscript, Constance is propelled through a very modern rabbit hole and lands smack in the middle of the tragic turning points of each play in turn. Her attempts to save first Desdemona, then Juliet, from their harrowing fates, result in a wild unpredictable ride through comedy and near-tragedy, as mild-mannered Constance learns to love, sword-fight, dance Renaissance-style, and master a series of disguises… Goodnight Desdemona (Good Morning Juliet) a gender-bendy, big-hearted and crazily intelligent romp, where irony and anger sing in perfect harmony with innocence and poignancy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To save my mate Lance and his pack, I sacrificed myself to be the bait to lure the mastermind out, because I love him. But It turns out that my mate just treated me as the replacement for that girl! *** Cadence was no longer the weak, insecure girl she once was. With the awakening of her wolf and the guidance of Lance, she could finally handle her most awaited transformation and became a real werewolf. She was more powerful than everyone expected. But what could the awakening of Cadence wolf and her power mean to Lance's chaos-stricken kingdom? Would her shifting be a threat to his mate? In this case, how would Alpha Lance deal with it? Meanwhile, more traitors were hiding by their side, waiting for the time to act. One of their targets seemed to be Cadence. But no one even had an idea who was the mastermind hiding behind it. They needed bait. Without a doubt, Cadence was the perfect bait. However, Cadence was waiting for a chance to fight back!
