Book excerpt: “This steamy and intellectual debut novel is an ode to the female body, and to a young woman discovering the potential boundlessness of her pleasure.”—Refinery 29, “The Sexiest Books You’ll Ever Have the Pleasure of Reading” Roxana Olsen has always dreamed of going to Paris, and after high school graduation finally plans to travel there on a study abroad program—a welcome reprieve from the bruising fallout of her parents’ divorce. But a logistical mix-up brings Roxana to Copenhagen instead, where she’s picked up at the airport by Søren, a twenty-eight-year-old guide who is meant to be her steward. Instantly drawn to one another, Roxana and Søren’s relationship turns romantic, and when he asks Roxana to accompany him to a small coastal town for the rest of the summer, she doesn’t hesitate to accept. There, Roxana’s world narrows and expands as she experiences fantasy, ritual, and the pleasures of her body, a thrilling realm of erotic and domestic bliss. Seduced by this newfound connection, Roxana doesn’t object when Søren requests that she spend her days alone in the apartment while he goes to the library to work. As their relationship deepens, Søren’s temperament darkens, and Roxana finds herself increasingly drawn to a local outsider, Zlatan, whom she learns is a Muslim refugee from the Bosnian War. The cycle of awakenings sparked by these two relationships challenge and open Roxana in ways she never imagined. A coming-of-age like no other, from a magnetic new voice in fiction, Open Me “is unflinching in its portrayal of sex, desire, racism, and the excitement and confusion of youth. Infused with erotics and politics, this is a novel that will haunt you” (Viet Thanh Nguyen, Pulitzer Prize-winning author).
Download or read book Open Me written by SUNSHINE O'DONNELL and published by Anchor Canada. This book was released on 2011-04-13 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mem is a wailer, a professional mourner hired to cry at funerals. One of the few remaining American girls in this secret, illegal profession, Mem hails from a long line of mourners, including her mother, a legendary master wailer hired for the most important funerals in her hometown of Philadelphia. Though Mem is eventually to become a renowned wailer herself, she at first struggles with her calling. She is a girl who cannot make herself cry, and though her mother loves her fiercely, she must use ancient, emotionally abusive, cultlike rituals to train Mem to weep. When Mem emerges as the greatest wailer that the profession has ever seen, her infamy brings with it unwanted attention, especially from the authorities. Interweaving poetic prose and artifacts spanning six thousand years and seven continents, Open Me is an utterly original novel about mothers and daughters, dark underworlds, and the play between fact and fiction.

Book excerpt: If you are a student of selling by mail, you may have wondered why "experts" write book after book and magazine article after magazine article about letters ... and almost nothing about the envelopes housing those letters. The reason I do is one that becomes obvious the first time you create a brilliant, award-winning, irresistible direct mail campaign ... and it bombs. "What's wrong with these people?" we cry. "This was aimed right at them. They need it. The price is right. The letter is loaded with dynamite, and we spent a ton of money taking pictures for the brochure. What happened?" The question should be: "What didn't happen?" If the message is aimed right at them and they need it and the price is right and the letter is loaded with dynamite and the pictures in the brochure are worthy of hanging in The Louvre, what's missing? Where did we goof? The envelope. If they didn't open the envelope, all that brilliance was reduced to a zero-watt intensity. The envelope is the greeter, separating us from everyone else...from all the other business mail driven by self-intensifying databases (the best prospect are the best targets and thus get the most mail and thus are harder to reach and even harder to convince). The envelope is the bellwether, moulding the recipient's attitude. It whispers, says, commands, or shouts to the person holding it, "Open me now!" What happens next can determine the fate not just of a mailing but of the organisation behind it. And that's why this book exists. Thanks for agreeing with my premise: If they don't open the envelope, all the brilliance in every other component is reduced to a zero-watt intensity. Now, let's get some megawatt envelopes into the mail!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mia It was so close, I'd tasted it-the freedom. But the only thing I could taste now was the end. Over the last two years, I'd let all outside forces dictate my life, my feelings, my head. I'd allowed everyone to control what my punishment should be for all my wrong-doings. I'd been tested and learned my lesson.I'd paid my dues and suffered long enough. Because in the end, even the once-upon-a-damned deserved to be happy too. Ollie How far are you willing to go? I'd asked myself this very question countless times. But never in my wildest dreams thought I'd go back in time, chasing ghosts from my past for a chance to save our future.So, there was no limit. No boundaries. I'd cross time, the world, my morals. Yes, I'd even double-cross myself.So, how far would I go? The answer had always been simple.I'd go an eternity plus a day past crestfallen.
