Download or read book Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal written by Jeanette Winterson and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2012-03-06 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller: The “magnificent” memoir by one of the bravest and most original writers of our time—“A tour de force of literature and love” (Vogue). One of the New York Times’ “50 Best Memoirs of the Past 50 Years” Jeanette Winterson’s bold and revelatory novels have established her as a major figure in world literature. Her internationally best-selling debut, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit, tells the story of a young girl adopted by Pentecostal parents, and has become a staple of required reading in contemporary fiction classes. Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal? is a “singular and electric” memoir about a life’s work to find happiness (The New York Times). It is a book full of stories: about a girl locked out of her home, sitting on the doorstep all night; about a religious zealot disguised as a mother who has two sets of false teeth and a revolver in the dresser, waiting for Armageddon; about growing up in a north England industrial town now changed beyond recognition; about the universe as a cosmic dustbin. It is the story of how a painful past, rose to haunt the author later in life, sending her on a journey into madness and out again, in search of her biological mother. It is also a book about the power of literature, showing how fiction and poetry can form a string of guiding lights, or a life raft that supports us when we are sinking. Witty, acute, fierce, and celebratory, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal? is a tough-minded story of the search for belonging—for love, identity, home, and a mother.

Download or read book Martin Crimp Plays 3 written by Martin Crimp and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2015-11-12 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cruel and Tender 'A mordantly knowing modernisation of Sophocles's Trachiniae... . The approach here manages to be at once lethally level and capable of surges of anguished feeling... Highly recommended.' Independent Fewer Emergencies 'A triptych of vicious modern fairy tales that brings the nightmare right back and stabs you through the soul.' Guardian The City 'Although this is the most disquieting play in London, there is a curious exhilaration about both the performance and Crimp's confrontation with our perpetual unease.' Guardian Definitely the Bahamas 'A summation of a life lived vicariously, at the margins of other lives, between suffocating suburban walls; and the play is as unflinching as it is unnerving.' The Times Play House ' Play House concerns the volatility and vulnerability of love, as a young couple, Simon and Katrina set up home... Unusually for Crimp, the play both begins and ends with moving declarations of love. Suddenly this usually chilly dramatist seems unexpectedly blessed with a warm heart.' Daily Telegraph In the Republic of Happiness 'Crimp goes so far as to call it "an entertainment in three parts," and it rocks along like a dystopian vaudeville... The actors are imprisoned and liberated at once, their strange between-worlds condition a source of joy, intemperateness and above all a care for our diversion... My favourite play of the year.'

Download or read book WTF I m Trying to Be Spiritual written by Jeanette Bishop and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2014-01-13 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2015 International Book Awards New Age: Non-Fiction Category Finalist in the 10th Annual National Indie Excellence Awards for New Age Non-Fiction Category Fed up with living life as an opinion of someone else? Throughout this book, readers will discover themselves, or at least what or who they aren’t. There’s no point in having spiritual answers if we can’t stand ourselves, as we layer most things into our guilt and shame cycle, which we seem to like so much. Self-hatred is evident in many of us, from overeating to starvation; seeking and never finding that true love, leaving a trail of broken lives—our own included—shows us we are really seeking ourselves. Never really knowing why that would be, we ventured into the heart of the matter, literally: self-love. Where is it, what is it, and how come we don’t have it? The reader is invited to discover how to reveal the power of love within and share it with others by the world’s foremost authority—God. The dialogue between God and the book’s authors provides insights into some of life’s biggest questions and the human condition, not just on a personal level, but also on a global scale. Through these inspiring messages, this book exposes spiritual truths, while providing solutions that can be incorporated into the daily practice of everyday living, to bring a greater sense of peace and awareness to the reader.

Front cover: photo by Jeanette Bishop (Isle of Skye, Scotland) Back cover: photo by Helen Varga (Cranberry Creek Gardens, Lynedoch, Ontario, Canada) BlueInk Review “While the authors’ basic premise (direct communication with a supreme being) may not be palatable to everyone, their suggestions could offer a way back into spirituality for sincere seekers . . . . “ ForeWord Clarion Reviews “Bishop and Varga have created a jovial and generous guidebook for self-care. The book’s largest sections, which focus on loving oneself and healing via that love, offer a blueprint for this reorientation. Trading between practical advice and recalled, meditative conversations with the Spirit, the authors act as creative spiritual gurus.” Kirkus Indie Review “ . . . there are sound pieces of advice to be gleaned from these pages, even by readers with diff erent beliefs.”

The barkeep pulls a dusty bottle down from the top shelf, and Shayne is settling into his drink when a blonde walks through the door. As the detective admires her, she raises her hand . . . and with a gesture of her dainty little finger, marks him for death. Two men wrestle Shayne outside, beat him senseless, and try to run him over with their car. To escape this hayseed town alive, Shayne will have to discover the identity of the dame from the bar—and why she chose for him to die. Stranger in Town is the 26th book in the Mike Shayne Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
