Book Description
"Represents a new generation of women's writing, one in which personal histories and maternal legacies are reclaimed in the context of a feminist consciousness of the effects of class, race, ethnicity, and sexuality on the individual life.... McNaron creates a vivid, moving, and memorable account of life and a person developing in, with, and against the times."--Nancy Porter, CALYX

Book Description
Kate's life sucks. She's tending bar at a run-down dive. Her immoral boss fondles every co-ed within reach. The clientele is made up of TV-glazed zombies, drunkards, and ... who is that in the corner? The Thunderbolt Hits. She hadn't thought it was real. But when she looks into Sean's eyes, the force of the connection staggers her. Her mind desperately seeks to pull her back - he's an ex-felon. Far too talented with those rippled muscles and toned fists. He's everything she should be staying away from. She craves him from the depths of her soul. His touch smolders her skin; his fingers expose her to worlds she never dreamt existed. But when his secret is ripped free from the dark shadows, their lives teeter on the brink of destruction. * * * Half of all proceeds of this novella benefit battered women's shelters. Dwell in Possibility is the first of four novellas in the Worcester Nights series. Due to the strong sexual content and adult situations, this romantic suspense story is recommended for readers aged 17+. The first three novellas have cliff-hanger endings, which lead to the final novella with a happily-ever-after. Ophelia adores Worcester, Massachusetts with all its gritty streets, rows of muted-colored three-deckers, and tough-as-nails can-do attitude. She’s lived in this area since college, with only a few brief flings in other locations. No matter where else she travels, the powerful allure of Worcester pulls her home again. Worcester's a mere hour west of Boston, with many of the same traditions of Irish culture and fierce pride. Boston Strong.

Book Description
In each moment, we have choices. There was a time when living by "default" was my way to live my life. This meant just accepting whatever came along. Then there was a BFO—a blinding flash of the obvious. Manifesting that which is most important to me became achievable. Actually, I attended a class on personal growth, where I learned that living with a focus on purpose allowed me to make wiser choices. To become aware of what my current expectations were. To see where I was making judgments based on limiting beliefs. To open myself up to exercising responsibility, my ability to respond. Scientific research has proven that we create out of our habits and that habits can be changed after consistent exercise of new routines day after day. When science is blended with mysticism, there seems to be a wormhole in our imagination cosmos. Hence, after seeing the significance of the number 40 across centuries, this 40-day journey is one of discovery of remembrance of who we are. As we navigate our way through time, it's feasible to pause and take a look around at all that is viable. To be mindful, to know the present moment is replete with opportunity, allows us to really look at our path and choose again. We can let go of the past and move beyond history. If we love our present journey, we are primed for even greater good. In this universe of universes, string theory and quantum mechanics tell us about the quantum void. This void isn't empty at all. It's actually filled with quantum energy and particles that flash in and out of beingness for a fleeting moment. Yes. We are energy in motion. Yes. We came to be, out of that nothingness. Yes. We dwell in possibility.

Book Description
The mystery that attracts Howard Mansfield's attention is that some houses have lifeare home, are dwellings, and others aren't. Dwelling, he says, is an old-fashioned word that we've misplaced. When we live heart and soul, we dwell. When we belong to a place, we dwell. Possession, they say, is nine-tenths of the law, but it is also what too many houses and towns lack. We are not possessed by our home places. This lost quality of dwellingthe soul of buildingshaunts most of our houses and our landscape. Dwelling in Possibility is a search for the ordinary qualities that make some houses a home, and some public places welcoming.

Book Description
We Dwell in Possibilities By: Carlotta G. Holton As women, we are constantly evolving. Changing attitudes toward our gender have accommodated many, but not all. Still, we are told, it is progress. Women can now enter career paths never before considered. They can choose not to marry, not to have children, or become a single parent. Women can marry someone of the same sex, younger or older, regardless of race, ethnicity or religion. The lines, for the most part, between sexism, ageism, and racism have blurred, though they are still visible. So, if as we were told years ago in the 1968 Virginia Slims cigarette commercial, “We’ve come a long way baby,” just where do we stand now? In We Dwell in Possibilities: What American Women Think about Practically Everything!, Carlotta G. Holton strives to answer this question through the intensive study she conducted over years of research, interviews, and analysis. So, what do American women think about practically everything? Read on to find out!
Author: Eleanor Elson Heginbotham Publisher: Ohio State University Press ISBN: 9780814209226 Category : Literary Criticism Languages : en Pages : 208
Book Description
Heginbotham's book focuses on Emily Dickinson's work as a deliberate writer and editor. The fascicles were forty small portfolios of her poems written between 1856 and 1864, composed on four to seven stationery sheets, folded, stacked, and sewn together with twine. What revelations might come from reading her poems in her own context? Are they simply "scrapbooks," as some claim, or are they evidence of conscious, canny editing? Read in their original places, each lyric becomes different-and more interesting-than when read in isolation. We cannot know why Dickinson compiled the books or what she thought of them, but we can observe what she left in them. What she left is visible only by noting the way the poem answers in a dialogue across the pages, the way lines spilling onto a second page introduce the next poem, the way openings suggest image clusters so that each book has its own network of concerns and language-not a story or philosophical preachment but an aesthetic wholeness. This book is the first to demonstrate that Dickinson's poetic and philosophical creativity is most startling when the reader observes the individual lyric in the poet's own, and only, context for them. For teacher, student, scholar, and poetry lover, Heginbotham creates an important new framework for understanding one of the most complex, clever, and profound U.S. poets.
