Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Publishers Weekly Notable Book 49th Shelf Recommended Read A modern gay memoir exploring love, death, pain, and community that will resonate long after the last page. “This is an embodied story of love, loss, and recovery — raw, candid, and filled with a sense of awe at human resilience.” — Shelf Awareness “A timely story so human, so beautiful, so bravely told with heart and humour.” — Rosie O’Donnell A lifetime of finding punchlines in his heartache comes to a shuddering stop when comedian and writer Shawn Hitchins loses two great loves, five months apart, to sudden death. In this deeply poignant memoir that combines sober self-portrait with tender elegy, Hitchins explores the messiness of being alive: the longing and desire, scorching-earth anger, raw grief — and the pathway of healing he discovers when he lets his heart remain open. Never without an edge of self-awareness, The Light Streamed Beneath It invites the reader into Hitchins’s world as he reckons with his past and stays painfully in the present. As he builds an embodied future, he confronts the stories that have shaped him, sets aside his ambition, and seeks connection in what he used to deflect with laughter — therapy, community and chosen family, movement, spirituality, and an awareness of death’s ever-presence. A heartrending and hope-filled story of resilience in the wake of death, The Light Streamed Beneath It joyfully affirms that life is essentially good, as Hitchins weaves his tale full of tenacious spirit, humor, kindness, and grit through life’s most unforgiving challenges.

Walker loves being humankind’s first galactic traveler—until he remembers he hasn’t a clue where home is or how to get there. So the erstwhile commodities broker becomes a chef, whipping up delicacies for demanding alien palates. Of course he never imagined that the way back to Chicago would involve swapping his easy-living adopted planet for an all-out, age-old war many parsecs away. But hey, it’s all for a good cause, he has George and their two fellow escapees for company, and what else is there to do, besides avoid nasty aliens? Plenty, as it turns out. “An enjoyable read . . . Foster’s writing is smooth and his characters engaging.”—SFReader “Sometimes humorous, sometimes serious, and always entertaining.”—Library Journal

Download or read book Dark Days Bright Nights written by Matthew O'Brien and published by Central Recovery Press. This book was released on 2020-11-17 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vivid and enlightening oral account of homelessness in the Las Vegas storm drains and the hard work of re-entering mainstream society. Are you aware that hundreds of people live underground in the flood channels of Las Vegas? Few people were until Matthew O'Brien grabbed a flashlight, tape recorder, and expandable baton for protection and explored the storm-drain system in depth. This research resulted in his landmark book Beneath the Neon. Now the drains have been covered by CNN, Fox News, NPR, Dr. Phil, the New York Times, the BBC, Al Jazeera, and many other media outlets. They have even found their way on to popular TV shows, including CSI, Criminal Minds, and into mainstream movies. But the fact that several of these drug- and gambling-addicted tunnel dwellers have clawed their way out of the drains and turned around their lives has received far less attention. Dark Days, Bright Nights shares their harrowing stories and provides a unique perspective on one of America's most fascinating cities. It also paints a larger picture of homelessness and recovery in America. These stories are the happy (though not Hollywood) ending to the infamous tunnel tale. The narrative is complemented by bios and stark, black-and-white images of the survivors, putting a scarred, knowing face to the unblinkingly honest accounts.

Download or read book Beneath the Lights written by Jim Boyer and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's perfectly normal for a 19-year-old to be captivated by a beautiful young girl. But it's a bit unusual if he's never met her and she's been dead for more than a decade. In the Summer of 1978, Chad Anderson takes a construction job at a local amusement park. It is there he learns of Evelyn Welsh, a 16-year-old girl brutally murdered at the park thirteen years earlier. Although her killer was arrested and confessed to the crime, he has refused to reveal his motive or where he disposed of her body. Over the course of the summer, Chad's interest in the case develops into an obsession as he pursues the truth about Evelyn and tries to locate her remains. But he soon learns she may not have been as innocent as everyone has been led to believe. He also discovers the truth can be painful...and dangerous. Beneath the Lights is the literary equivalent of a Ramones song of the time period: fast-paced, tight, and compelling. The story is told from Chad's point of view interspersed with flashbacks that gradually reveal the details surrounding Evelyn's fate. As both narratives converge, Chad realizes he's uncovered a secret meant to stay buried for years. Finally, but no less important, it is a coming-of-age story that explores the themes of sacrifice and redemption. --- "This mystery paints a vivid picture of life in a small town and the danger and darkness that lurks even in the most benign of settings." - Jennifer Dornbush (Author of The Coroner, Secret Remains, and Forensic Speak)

Renowned spiritual healer and expert Pat Longo demonstrates the ways in which exploring the roots of our anxiety can help us discover the path toward healing and inner peace. This validating and life-changing book is the perfect companion to Empath by Judy Dyer and The Empath’s Survival Guide by Judith Orloff. Are you overwhelmed with compassion for others’ pain? Are you sometimes referred to by other as “too sensitive”? You just might be an empath. And a few simple tools could change your life As a spiritual healer and teacher to some of today’s most well-known empaths—including “Long Island Medium” Theresa Caputo—Pat Longo has found that many of the individuals who have come to her with anxiety and related symptoms possess a heightened sense of perception and an extreme level of intuition—absorbing the energies, thoughts, and feelings that surround them and even experiencing them as their own. What’s more, most of these individuals had no idea that they possess the abilities of an empath. In Pat’s experience, just beneath what feels distressing can be something wonderful. In this illuminating book, Pat guides you to become aware of, care for, and protect your spiritual self and energy; discover, develop, and strengthen the powerful gifts within; and in doing so, to eliminate and prevent related anxiety and other symptoms. Using simple exercises utilized in her own practice, plus instructive and inspiring case studies, Pat will show you how to: *Understand what an empath really is and determine whether you are one *Learn simple spiritual healing steps to care for your whole self—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual *Connect to your inner spiritual self and the power within *Protect and ground yourself spiritually and energetically *Forgive and let go of past hurts *Raise your energetic vibration *Become aware of and develop your intuitive abilities with focused activities such as meditations, visualizations, automatic writing, psychometry, and other exercises In an increasingly anxious world, getting in touch with our deepest healing abilities and achieving inner peace is more important than ever.

Download or read book Beneath the Backbone of the World written by Ryan Hall and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the better part of two centuries, between 1720 and 1877, the Blackfoot (Niitsitapi) people controlled a vast region of what is now the U.S. and Canadian Great Plains. As one of the most expansive and powerful Indigenous groups on the continent, they dominated the northern imperial borderlands of North America. The Blackfoot maintained their control even as their homeland became the site of intense competition between white fur traders, frequent warfare between Indigenous nations, and profound ecological transformation. In an era of violent and wrenching change, Blackfoot people relied on their mastery of their homelands' unique geography to maintain their way of life. With extensive archival research from both the United States and Canada, Ryan Hall shows for the first time how the Blackfoot used their borderlands position to create one of North America's most vibrant and lasting Indigenous homelands. This book sheds light on a phase of Native and settler relations that is often elided in conventional interpretations of Western history, and demonstrates how the Blackfoot exercised significant power, resiliency, and persistence in the face of colonial change.
