Pages : 242
Book Description
In 1964, Patricia MacKay immigrated to Canada from England in search of the wild-open lands and cowboy culture that captivated her as a child. In the 1960s, the Wild West was still alive and kicking in the Cariboo-Chilcotin, although it had been tamed--a little. Old-time hospitality and helping anyone in need was the acknowledged way of life. Pat learned the Cariboo-Chilcotin way of life first hand by spending her summers working on guest ranches and finding other jobs to keep her occupied during the winter. From learning how to cook on the job to kitchen disasters and successes, roundups, branding, square dances and falling in love, she slowly gained acceptance into the tight-knit communities of BC's Interior. Ranching meant long hours, hard work, and a lifestyle all its own. Entertainment was homemade. There were rodeos, dances, and music around campfires in the summer and ice hockey, tobogganing, and parties in the winter. Sadly, that way of life is gradually disappearing, but this book relives the way things were between 1964 and 1976; it tells of a unique brand of people from a variety of backgrounds who made this part of the west their home.

The Panty Theory
Author: Victorie Powers
Publisher: Tate Publishing
ISBN: 1617395609
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
'Here's what I learned in the panty lesson. My life is so jumbled up right now, and I try each individual thing and try to unravel it and fix it. And when it doesn't happen, I become anxious and really frustrated. So I think I need to look for the obvious source of the knot and concentrate on that.' ... 'So you think that the panty theory is all about following my truth?' 'Yes, Victorie, I do.' Andy nodded his head slowly. 'I'm not saying it will be easy, but I think it's necessary for your healing to follow your truth wherever it is taking you.' Victorie Powers seemed like just another suburban Christian housewife, taking care of her husband and girls. But deep inside, she was very troubled and very much in denial about the ugly, dark events from her teenage years. That is until a dispute with a mortgage company over a missing payment resulted in trouble for her family. Only when she learns that her daughters are suffering because they are watching her suffer does she realize it's time to sort through the pain of the past. And so begins a long, often distressing, but ultimately triumphant journey through therapy with Andy, her Christian therapist. Through a divine lesson of untangling panties, as well as therapy sessions with Andy, Victorie's turmoil is relived. Readers will feel her raw emotions, hurting when she hurts and cheering when she finds moments of joy. Jaws will drop at some of the shocking revelations; hearts will ache, and hearts will be healed as Victorie's heart is made whole again through purging the past and learning to love and accept herself in a way never before possible. This is a story from denial to acceptance, from blame to forgiveness, from trauma to triumph. Join Victorie as she learns to follow her truth in The Panty Theory.

This Woman's Work

Publisher: Hachette Books
ISBN: 0306829029
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
Edited by iconic musician Kim Gordon and esteemed writer Sinéad Gleeson, this powerful collection of award-winning female creators shares their writing about the female artists that matter most to them. This book is for and about the women who kicked in doors, as pioneers of their craft or making politics central to their sound: those who offer a new way of thinking about the vast spectrum of women in music. This Woman’s Work: Essays on Music is edited by iconic musician Kim Gordon and esteemed writer Sinéad Gleeson and features an array of talented contributors, including: Anne Enright, Fatima Bhutto, Jenn Pelly, Rachel Kushner, Juliana Huxtable, Leslie Jamison, Liz Pelly, Maggie Nelson, Margo Jefferson, Megan Jasper, Ottessa Moshfegh, Simone White, Yiyun Li, and Zakia Sewell. In this radical departure from the historic narrative of music and music writing being written by men, for men, This Woman’s Work challenges the male dominance and sexism that have been hard-coded in the canons of music, literature, and film and has forced women to fight pigeon-holing or being side-lined by carving out their own space. Women have to speak up, to shout louder to tell their story—like the auteurs and ground-breakers featured in this collection, including: Anne Enright on Laurie Anderson; Megan Jasper on her ground-breaking work with Sub Pop; Margo Jefferson on Bud Powell and Ella Fitzgerald; and Fatima Bhutto on music and dictatorship. This Woman’s Work also features writing on the experimentalists, women who blended music and activism, the genre-breakers, the vocal auteurs; stories of lost homelands and friends; of propaganda and dictatorships, the women of folk and country, the racialized tropes of jazz, the music of Trap and Carriacou; of mixtapes and violin lessons.
