- Love me : one woman's search for a different happy ever after / by Power, Marianne,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Can you be happy without long-term romantic love at the centre of your life? Society still sets the gold standard for successful living as being married with children. As Marianne Power turns forty, she wonders why this is still so elusive for her, and whether in fact this is even what she wants, or just what she feels she should want. At first she tries to lean into the alternatives -- self-love, self-marriage, sisterhood -- but is she simply avoiding confronting her fears about commitment, relationships and sex? Determined to find out for sure, the indomitable Marianne sets off on a journey to answer the question: can you have a life full of love without marriage and kids? From tantra to Skype sex, polyamory to sologamy, Marianne's quest takes her to hilarious, scary and moving places -- and she discovers that maybe, in these chaotic times, loving thy neighbour is more important than achieving a romantic ideal. Honest, intimate and inspiring, Love Me is about the freedom to envision the life you want, and the courage to choose it"--- Subjects: Autobiographies.; Biographies.; Personal narratives.; Power, Marianne.; Love.; Self-acceptance in women.; Self-realization.;

- The city of stardust / by Summers, Georgia,author.;
"For centuries, the Everlys have seen their best and brightest disappear, taken as punishment for a crime no one remembers, for a purpose no one understands. Their tormentor, a woman named Penelope, never ages, never grows sick--and never forgives a debt. Violet Everly was a child when her mother left on a stormy night, determined to break the curse. When Marianne never returns, Penelope issues an ultimatum: Violet has ten years to find her mother, or she will take her place. Violet is the last of the Everly line, the last to suffer. Unless she can break the curse first. Her hunt leads her into a seductive magical underworld of power-hungry scholars, fickle gods and monsters bent on revenge. And into the path of Penelope's quiet assistant, Aleksander, who she knows cannot be trusted--and yet to whom she finds herself undeniably drawn. With her time running out, Violet will travel the edges of the world to find Marianne and the key to the city of stardust, where the Everly story began."--- Subjects: Fantasy fiction.; Novels.; Blessing and cursing; Civilization, Subterranean; Families; Man-woman relationships; Magic; Missing persons; Monsters;

- Sonny Assu : a selective history / by Assu, Sonny,author.; Hopkins, Candice,1977-author.;
"Stunning retrospective highlighting the playfulness, power, and subversive spirit of Northwest Coast Indigenous artist Sonny Assu.

Through analytical essays and personal narratives, Richard Van Camp, Marianne Nicolson, Candice Hopkins, and Ellyn Walker provide brilliant commentary on Assu's practice, its meaning in the context of contemporary art, and its wider significance in the struggle for Indigenous cultural and political autonomy. Exploring themes of Indigenous rights, consumerism, branding, humour, and the ways in which history informs contemporary ideas and identities, Sonny Assu: a selective history is the first major full-scale book to pay tribute to this important, prolific, and vibrant figure in the Canadian contemporary art world"--- Subjects: Assu, Sonny; Indian artists; Indian art; Art, Canadian.;
