"When I wrote these memoirs in 1852, I was ignorant of the future awaiting me; who could have known? It was not my willful brazenness that dictated I write these memoirs; it was not for provocation or moral outrage, as some of those who were quick to take offense said. Before you sentence the guilty, at least listen through to the end of the story." The four volumes of the infamous courtesan and Hippodrome performer, Mémoires de Céleste Mogador, were published to scandalous acclaim in Paris in 1858. At the urging of her lawyer, Mogador wrote about her troubled childhood, her ascent to the heights of the glamorous Parisian courtesan society, her transition to respectable life, and falling in love with a nobleman. In this new English translation, Memoirs of a French Courtesan Volume 1: Rebellion introduces the young Céleste as she and her mother flee Paris to escape Céleste's abusive stepfather. There they settle into a quiet, anonymous life, but he follows them-and participates in the riots that envelop Lyon. Soon enough, mother and daughter are free to return to Paris, where Céleste's mother again falls in love with a less-than-perfect man. Céleste escapes him, only to fall in with a kind courtesan-and find herself in prison. But having seen the silks and velvets and jewels the courtesans wear, Céleste dreams of nothing more than emancipating herself from her mother and living that glamorous life as soon as she turns sixteen.

This is no revenge story. I ain't got time for that. I've got errands to run and things to do and barely enough time to make it home before sundown. I don't care why folks are going around stealing ink. I don't care why the monks are acting kinda strange. I don't care that everybody is expecting me to save them. I might be a Sistah Samurai but those days playing hero were back when my knees didn't ache, and I wasn't the only one left. So leave me alone. All I want to do is get home, drink some green tea lemonade, and enjoy my peace. I'm not asking for much, so why are all these demons daring to get in my way? I am not the one. Not today. Sistah Samurai is an Action Fantasy novella that is an homage to the anime, Afro Samurai. Both works feature a feudal Japan-inspired setting that is rife with anachronisms. In the words of Samuel L. Jackson, "Is that a motherf-ing RPG?"--Provided by publisher.

From inhabitant of a cardboard cradle deep in the Kentucky hills to young romantic in New York City, Geneva Clay is transformed by her journey and yet indelibly the same. As Geneva's family migrates from one place to another, the once-familiar landscapes of her Kentucky childhood blend into a mosaic of poetic memories and near mythologies. In an Ohio college, she forms enduring friendships that provide both sustenance and education: Ella, an independent and empathetic spirit navigating a racially challenged environment; Sammy, a sophisticated rebel who briefly mentors Geneva; and Annie, who introduces Geneva to the excitement and complexities of New York. Geneva tentatively adopts the grand city, seeking work and love. After months of unhappy struggle and loneliness, she secures a position in a prestigious research foundation and, taking a chance on a brief encounter in a museum, gets involved with and marries Cullen, her first true love. However, continuing to grapple with reshaping her identity, she eventually leaves the Chatham Foundation and Cullen, too, behind. Much like Geneva, we all must part with our childhood innocence and embark on a quest to find our place within the universe, one that will fill the void left by the magic circle of meaning we've left behind.

Two million children were put into trafficking this year. Trafficked children, even as young as five, are required to act happy at all times when they are with their captors or a molester. Molestation occurs in the home as well.The trauma makes them feel shame, dirty, and unworthy of love. They blame themselves for the abuse believing they did something to cause it. They wanted the person to love them and tried so hard to please them.>It is the role of parents to protect their children. We, as a society, need to be aware and protect them as well. We all need to Save the Children.

Notes from the Green Man tells the true story of a young American airman from the streets of Brooklyn, New York, sent on his first Air Force assignment in the late 1970s to the twin air force bases of RAF Bentwaters/Woodbridge in rural Suffolk, England, where he fell in love with a village called Tunstall and a pub called The Green Man. Chuck Dalldorf's memoir is a long overdue love letter to a special place and the people who welcomed him.

"You will leave everything you love most: this is the arrow that the bow of exile shoots first." - Dante For many young Tibetans living out their lives in exile across the world, their idea of home is at best, imagined - assuming its own shape and form from the countless stories painstakingly recounted time and again by the elders. This book of poems, therefore, is the poet's own attempt to preserve the memories of her homeland and of early exile life, and to capture as much of the struggles, aspirations, dreams, and hopes of the Tibetan people as they strive to protect their ancient cultural and religious identity in a world of fast-changing priorities. So the book is at once about the pain of separation, loss, suppression, despair, doubt, and isolation as it is about resilience, starting anew, freedom, hope, acceptance, and compassion. In essence, it's about the thousand parallel lives that Tibetans live in one lifetime as they endeavor to stay true to all things Tibetan.

My Stuff And Welcome To It is my attempt at telling a true story of growing up in a big family that lived in a tiny house and some of the universal truths that we all share as members of the human race. I suppose more than anything else it is just time to tell these little stories before they are gone. Forgotten like so many other things in our fast-paced lives. Stories about a time that was much different from today. A time before technology took over every aspect of our lives. It never occurred to me at the time that the way we were raised and the way we lived our lives would start to fade way. I would never have guessed that being a part of a neighbourhood would be replaced by belonging to a network. That we would plug into some cold and lifeless computerized device to communicate with one another, instead of simply saying hello in the street. That as a boy, running to a neighbours house to borrow a cup of sugar would become one of the greatest lessons of my life. Our society becomes just a little more jaded and a little more cynical with each passing day. It is my hope that somehow the words I have written on these pages help to take you back to a time of innocence. A time when as kids we played in the streets without a care in the world. To a time when teenagers believed "All You Need Is Love" for no other reason than The Beatles told us so.

As a medical doctor and research scientist, Dr. Leah Carlton is adamant about finding a cure for the dreaded disease, cancer. A cure she certainly believes could be found amongst natural medicines. Hence, she never hesitates to leave her base in the UK to take regular trips back to her home in the rural community of Biche, in Trinidad, and back to her resplendent forest where a profuse number of potent herbs and plants, taught to her by her grandmother and mother, abound --- along with mysteries, exploits, and beings of a supernatural nature.Ever since her childhood Leah had always sensed that there was something very different about her. Not only does she wonder why she feels so connected to the forest in an inexplicable and transcendental way, but she also often marvels about not ever being ill, bruised, scratched, or harmed by any means, once in proximity --- not now, nor even back then. And what about her uncanny intuition --- an unmistakable sixth sense? And her fearlessness of the dark since infancy? Question marks persist in her subconscious mind ... lots of them.Will this turn out to be Leah's most memorable trip back home? Will she find and cherish romantic love for the first time with the young soldier whose path has unexpectedly become entwined with hers? And will she be able to break through her mother's personal barrier and finally find out who her father is? Perhaps he's closer than she thinks.
