Book excerpt: About the Book Dark passions, family secrets, twisted love, polyamory, betrayal, and pansexuality weave their way into a new novel by Canadian-American author Douglas Roff in his new novel Five Years in Her World: Secrets and Darkness. Following the tragic deaths of his parents in a fire which destroyed the family home and business, James McKenzie returns to the happiest place he knew as a boy growing up that wasn't located in Canada. After graduating from UBC with a degree in English Literature, he embarks ambitiously on a career as a novelist, moving to Merida, Mexico from his home in rural British Columbia. There he buys the very home his parents used to rent for the family, reconnecting with his Mexican neighbors and friends and settling into life as an expat, living quietly and perfecting his craft. Barely two weeks after arriving, while still settling in and renovating his new home, he receives an email asking him to visit the beach city of Progreso on the Yucatan coast to meet up with a college friend and fellow writer. There, while girl-watching at the beach waiting for the cruise ship to dock, he witnesses a violent attack on a young woman at a photo shoot, intervening after no one else comes to her aid. This leads to a chain of events in which James meets the wealthy and powerful Castellano family led by patriarch Diego and matriarch Luna. He begins his budding relationship with the two Castellano daughters, Maria, the international fashion model, and Conchita, the cunning and brilliant younger sister. His relationship with each of them is different as is his blossoming love affair with Maribella "Mari" Montoya who has had a long and tangled relationship with the two Castellano sisters and the wealthy and powerful Castellano matriarch. James is young and never seems to clearly understand all there is to unravel about the family, especially the looming darkness, his and theirs, that is rapidly descending on them all. Enter Shawna Fraser, an Canadian actress filming in Merida who crosses paths with James fortuitously, but who quickly connects with the Castellano sisters and Mari disrupting their otherwise quiet if not happy lives. The chance meetings of James and his women have resulted in the exposure of many dark secrets and personal agendas, but revealing few of his own. This first book of a three novel series opens the story and lights the fuse on explosive events that will soon change the lives of everyone in Merida, Mexico and in Madrid, Spain. Theirs is an exotic and erotic world of passion, betrayal, lust and pansexuality open to some, closed to all others. Darkness becomes the norm as deeply held secrets are revealed, woven into the final dramatic moments Five Years In Her World: Secrets and Darkness.
Download or read book Victims and Survivors Own Stories of Intrafamilial Child Sexual Abuse written by Steve Broome and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-25 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the UK today, it is estimated that nearly one in twenty children are subjected to sexual abuse, with the overwhelming majority being abused within the family environment. However, despite its prevalence, intrafamilial child sexual abuse remains largely shrouded in silence, shame and stigma. Taking a phenomenological approach, this book presents ten retrospective first-person accounts from adult victims and survivors, exploring the impact of such abuse throughout the life course. These stories illustrate how child sexual abuse can cause trauma affecting almost every aspect of life: emotionally, psychologically, interpersonally, behaviourally and cognitively. However, they also demonstrate the remarkable resilience of the human spirit; of how adverse experiences can be lived with, processed, and assimilated. These accounts address a gap in what academics, practitioners and policy makers know about child sexual abuse; give victims and survivors a voice; and open up a conversation about one of the most enduring societal and cultural problems.

Download or read book Pataphysica 4 written by Faustroll and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-02 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pataphysica 4 present the strange "conclusion" to Alfred Jarry's 1907 Symbolist novel The She-Dragon, Part 1 having appeared in Pataphysica 2 (iUniverse, 2004). It also holds the central, pivotal chapter of the novel, which describes a battle that, while entirely modern, reads like ancient myth, conjuring such texts as the Bhagavad-Gita and Homer's Iliad. Annotations highlight Jarry's alchemical symbolism (among other things), alchemy being the ancient "art and science" studied in secret by such modern scientist/philosophers as Gottfried Leibniz and Isaac Newton. Pataphysics is the science of imaginary solutions, and for Jarry, although there is no other imagination than the scientific, modern science has simply failed to keep up with the scientific imagination. Rounding out this otherwise rectangular issue are the works of several returning authors as well as some new ones. They provide additional musings on such themes as Jarry's alchemical/cosmological play The Pope's Mustardmaker, an amorous veteran of an internal war, microcosm and macrocosm, a fugitive writer apparently obsessed with conspiracy theories and baseball, a peculiar Grimoire on a new set of "Glorious Mysteries," and a terrifying invocation of the Thelemic Law of Rabelais (Jarry's literary "master") as adapted by Crowley.
