Book Description
A Woman's Silent Screams is the poignant tale of a woman struggling with the emotional strain of caring for her elderly mother who suffers from Alzheimer's disease, while dealing with the chaos of her own dysfunctional marriage. Throughout her life, Mavis Maxwell has managed to suppress the screams of frustration that reverberate in her head, but lately everything is spinning out of control. Amid the turmoil of care giving, Mavis learns that she cannot always be there for her mother, a once-independent and courageous woman, now battling Alzheimer's disease. After her mother dies, Mavis reminisces about her childhood in an old white house with a tin roof in the deeply segregated South. In the meantime, her third marriage begins to fall apart. She starts to question her faith in God, the choices of politicians, and the heart-wrenching decisions she was forced to make while caring for her hundred-year-old mother. A Woman's Silent Screams takes an introspective look at the circle of life-marriage, friendship, and family-as well as the bonds shared by the strong women of this family.

Shout Your Abortion
Author: Amelia Bonow
Publisher: PM Press
ISBN: 1629635901
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 498
Book Description
Following the U.S. Congress’s attempts to defund Planned Parenthood, the hashtag #ShoutYourAbortion became a viral conduit for abortion storytelling, receiving extensive media coverage and positioning real human experiences at the center of America’s abortion debate for the very first time. The online momentum sparked a grassroots movement that has subsequently inspired countless individuals to share their abortion stories in art, media, and community events all over the country, and to begin building platforms for others to do the same. Shout Your Abortion is a collection of photos, essays, and creative work inspired by the movement of the same name, a template for building new communities of healing, and a call to action. Since SYA’s inception, people all over the country have shared stories and begun organizing in a range of ways: making art, hosting comedy shows, creating abortion-positive clothing, altering billboards, starting conversations that had never happened before. This book documents some of these projects and illuminates the individuals who have breathed life into this movement, illustrating the profound liberatory and political power of defying shame and claiming sole authorship of our experiences. With Roe vs. Wade on the brink of reversal, the act of shouting one’s abortion has become explicitly radical, and Shout Your Abortion is needed more urgently than ever before.

Book Description
The New York Times–bestselling author delivers “another classic . . . that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the truth is revealed” (Suspense Magazine). A violent past leads to a present danger . . . When an old college roommate invites Claire Britten to join her on an archaeological dig at a Florida peat bog, it’s an offer the renowned forensic psychologist can’t refuse. Claire’s husband, criminal lawyer Nick Markwood, is comforted to see Claire working on a prehistoric burial site instead of an open grave for once. But Claire’s investigative instincts kick in when some of The Black Bog’s perfectly preserved corpses show signs of a grisly fate. What really happened to these people? What started as an exploration of the past soon escalates into an all-too-current danger. Someone is watching—someone who really doesn’t want Claire digging into the past or Nick making connections to a current, violent murder case he’s investigating. The bog’s corpses may be long dead, but if Claire and Nick don’t figure out who’s gunning for a fresh kill, the next bodies to be discovered will be their own.
