Projection
Author: Priscila Uppal
Publisher: Dundurn.com
ISBN: 1771024739
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
2013 Governor General’s Literary Award — Shortlisted, Non-Fiction 2013 Hilary Weston Writers’ Trust — Shortlisted, Non-Fiction Projection is the story of this mother-daughter meeting in Brazil, of how two strangers, connected by little more than blood, spent ten days together trying to build a relationship. In 1977, Priscila Uppal’s father drank contaminated water in Antigua and within 48 hours was a quadriplegic. Priscila was two years old. Five years later, her mother, Theresa, drained the family’s bank accounts and disappeared to Brazil. After two attempts to abduct her children, Theresa had no further contact with the family. In 2002, Priscila happened on her mother’s website, which featured a childhood photograph of Priscila and her brother. A few weeks later, Priscila summoned the nerve to contact the woman who’d abandoned her. The emotional reunion was alternately shocking, hopeful, humorous, and devastating, as Priscila came to realize that not only did she not love her mother, she didn’t even like her. Projection is a visceral, precisely written, brutally honest memoir that takes a probing look at a very unusual mother-daughter relationship, yet offers genuine comfort to all facing their own turbulent and unresolved familial relationships.

The Triumph of Babylon 5
Author: Baz Greenland
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476692408
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
Babylon 5 revolutionized genre television. First aired in 1993, the space opera series is highly respected for everything it was trying to achieve on television at a time when Star Trek was king. Its use of story arcs and long-form storytelling in science fiction can be felt in everything from Battlestar Galactica to Lost and The Expanse. Much of its legacy has been about its struggle to survive. From the rivalry with Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, to the collapse of the Prime Time Entertainment Network, the cancellation of spin-off series, and the failed big screen attempts--the behind-the-scenes details on Babylon 5 are as fascinating as anything we have on screen. This work explores the complex history of Babylon 5, the career of showrunner J. Michael Straczynski, and the behind-the-scenes drama to stay on the air, with many attempts to continue the franchise. Featuring interviews with cast members from the podcast A Dream Given Form, a lengthy two-part interview with Peter Jurasik (Londo) and a chat with Patricia Tallman (Lyta) and others, this book gives insights into what it was like to be part of Babylon 5, chronicling the show's highs and lows and examining the legacy it left behind in genre television.

Pages : 175
Book Description
The small town of Canyon Springs, Colorado, is filled with warm, welcoming people and breathtaking views. Is that why visitors often decide to stay for the rest of their lives? Or is it something else? Layla doesn’t believe any of the nonsense her grandmother filled her head with growing up. There’s no way shifters have the ability to entice humans into their world through some sort of coercion. The woman was simply prejudice. The concept is nonsense. So, Layla isn’t concerned about making the trip to Canyon Springs to settle her estranged aunt’s estate. In fact, she’s hoping to meet her first shifter and find out if they really are larger, sexier, and more tempting. The truth is that Layla is a starving actress, and she needs a change. She’s not, however, prepared to meet Hunter and put all her beliefs to the test. He’s everything she hoped for and then some. It would seem he’s also doing exactly what her grandmother warned her about—luring her into his lair. Her libido is on overdrive. Her heart is in danger.

Being gifted a sex slave was not how we expected to find our perfect third, but she’s here now, and she’s definitely ours... Summer I’m still putting the pieces of my life back together after the death of my famous parents when I’m abducted and wake up in hell. I’m a sex slave. Taunted day in and day out, I eventually violate the most important rule—I climax without permission. My punishment is severe and nearly destroys me. Bridger My grandfather is an eccentric old geezer, but he’s outdone himself this time. He’s purchased me a woman, hoping I will become a dutiful straight grandson. He’s changed his will to ensure I marry and produce an heir. What he doesn’t realize is that I don’t want his money, and I’d never leave my partner. Colter I’ve been with Bridger for ten years. With the exception of his frequently meddling grandfather, we’re happy. We also know we’re not fully complete. Finding out we are now the “owners” of a victim of sex trafficking shakes our foundation. She needs our help and protection. She’s also perfect for us. We will do anything to help her heal and keep her safe, but what isn’t she telling us? And how long can we keep her existence a secret?
