Lady in Waiting
Author: Jennifer Marie Hodgetts
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1038307120
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
In the late 1950s, at a fictional university in the UK, David, a medical student, and Alison, who is studying geography, fall in love after meeting at a “Freshie” dance. Theirs is a storybook romance—they share common goals and values, they like and respect each other, the relationship is good, and each is warmly welcomed into the other’s family. They marry, have children, and eventually, emigrate to southern Ontario where David joins a medical practice. Life is good. But for David there is an unfulfilled longing. A longing that goes all the way back to his childhood when he wished he had been born a girl. As an adult, his desire to live as a woman takes the form of cross-dressing on the rare occasion an opportunity presents itself. Late in life, with the help of a psychologist, he comes to understand that he is transgender, and Julie Ann is born. Alison and Julie Ann’s marriage must change throughout the transition, but their mutual love and respect endures as they embark on a new life. Lady in Waiting is a story of love, longing, denial, disillusionment, despair, and ultimately, acceptance and joy. It is a story of transition, transformation, and transcendence.

ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
To remember is to feel pain. Quinten Peterson sat on death row, sentenced to death for a crime he did not commit. He had no idea his angel of mercy would be the girl he had fallen in love with so long ago. The media called Saige Lockwood a victim, but she was a survivor. And she had only twenty-eight days to remember what happened to her that fateful night eight years ago in order to save the man whose execution date was set. With the clock ticking, Saige, with the help of Alex Peterson, began her own investigation into what had happened to her. Her memories slowly returned, and with them the love she had once shared with Quinten.

Living in Utopia
Author: Lucy Sargisson
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351921762
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
Utopia is, literally, the good place that is no place. Utopias reveal people's dreams and desires and they may gesture towards different and better ways of being. But they are rarely considered as physical, observable phenomena. In this book Sargisson and Sargent, both established writers on utopian theory, turn their attention to real-life utopian communities. The book is based on their fieldwork and extensive archival research in New Zealand, a country with a special place in the history of utopianism. A land of opportunity for settlers with dreams of a better life, New Zealand has, per capita, more intentional communities - groups of people who have chosen to live and sometimes work together for a common purpose - than any country in the world. Sargisson and Sargent draw on the experiences of more than fifty such communities, to offer the first academic survey of this form of living utopian experiment. In telling the story of the New Zealand experience, Living in Utopia provides both transferable lessons in community, cooperation and social change and a unique insight into the utopianism at the heart of politics, society, and everyday life.

Come Together
Author: Jethro Bor
Publisher: Book Guild Publishing
ISBN: 1835740626
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 403
Book Description
Think global, act local! Trades councils are the place workers and unemployed trade unionists, in local and national forums, can come together to pass resolutions and plan actions; in workplaces and on the streets; to change laws, change minds, show solidarity, lead and inspire; encourage demonstrations, occupations and industrial actions; to provide confidence and political tools to working people. Union leaders have tended to constrict these assemblies while radicals have often wanted to further empower them. Trades councils’ histories have often been marginalised, hidden from the very localities from which they sprang – until now. Come Together explores trades councils in Britain from 1920 to 1950 – their role in the General Strike of 1926, unemployment responses in the 1930s, the impact of World War II, their interactions with British communists – with lessons for today’s activists.

Persephone Unchained
Author: Lexi Buchanan
Publisher: HFCA Publishing House
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
Once a prince. Then a prisoner. Now a pirate. In the Immortal Realm, Prince Ruine Sorenson once led the armies of Macydonya. He now sailed the seas of the Human Realm as a pirate in search of a relic stolen from his home: the eternal key. He removed the compass as soon as the veil quivered in warning. These items, when combined, hold the veil in place, protecting their Kingdom from outside threats. The veil fractured as soon as the key was removed, and Emperor Jaylen Adrońis of Thryyce invaded the land, imprisoning Ruine's family in the citadel they called home. It was a race against time to find the key before Jaylen could do more damage to the Kingdom the brothers loved. Once a girl. Then a bargaining chip. Now a siren. Persephone St. Clare had no idea about the Immortal Realm until two brothers kidnapped her and took her aboard the massive galleon, Devils Rogue. She'd been craving excitement and adventure, but she hadn't expected it to come in such a big way. Her time at sea turned out to be much more than she had anticipated when she discovered things about herself that indicated her parents had lied to her since she was a child. Her body changed, and sea serpents guarded her, but nothing could have prepared her for the biggest surprise of all: her love for a pirate unlocking her most powerful magic. Enjoy this standalone fantasy romance set in the world of secrets, lies, and new beginnings.
