Thunder Song Essays [electronic resource] : by LaPointe, Sasha.aut; cloudLibrary;
The author of the award-winning memoir Red Paint returns with a razor-sharp, clear-eyed collection of essays on what it means to be a proudly queer indigenous woman in the United States today Drawing on a rich family archive as well as the anthropological work of her late great-grandmother, Sasha taqʷšəblu LaPointe explores themes ranging from indigenous identity and stereotypes to cultural displacement and environmental degradation to understand what our experiences teach us about the power of community, commitment, and conscientious honesty. Unapologetically punk, the essays in Thunder Song segue from the miraculous to the mundane, from the spiritual to the physical, as they examine the role of art—in particular music—and community in helping a new generation of indigenous people claim the strength of their heritage while defining their own path in the contemporary world.

Nightbitch / by Yoder, Rachel,1978-;
"An ambitious mother puts her art career on hold to stay at home with her newborn son, but the experience does not match her imagination. Two years later, she steps into the bathroom for a break from her toddler's demands, only to discover a dense patch of hair on the back of her neck. In the mirror, her canines suddenly look sharper than she remembers. Her husband, who travels for work five days a week, casually dismisses her fears from faraway hotel rooms. As the mother's symptoms intensify, and her temptation to give in to her new dog impulses peak, she struggles to keep her alter-canine-identity secret. Seeking a cure at the library, she discovers the mysterious academic tome which becomes her bible, A Field Guide to Magical Women: A Mythical Ethnography, and meets a group of mommies involved in a multilevel-marketing scheme who may also be more than what they seem. An outrageously original novel of ideas about art, power, and womanhood wrapped in a satirical fairy tale, Nightbitch will make you want to howl in laughter and recognition. And you should. You should howl as much as you want"--

Includes bibliographical references."Discover solid biblical answers to the provocative questions you have been asking about the supernatural world-healings, angels, demons, mystical dreams, near-death experiences, heaven, hell, and more-through the investigative work of a former spiritual skeptic. We hear stories all the time about the supernatural-miraculous healings, unexplained sightings, near-death experiences-but how do we know what is real? Are rumors of spiritual beings, healings, and prophetic dreams dangerous deceptions, or is there something important for us to explore? Join investigative journalist and former atheist Lee Strobel as he examines the evidence and considers how we should think about the unseen world-and the God who made and rules over it. As the bestselling author of the popular Case For series, which has sold millions of copies, Lee Strobel has interviewed some of the most brilliant scientists and philosophical thinkers in the world on topics of apologetics and faith. In Seeing the Supernatural, Lee weaves together his best material from several previous books with dynamic new and never-published interviews to investigate what the Bible really teaches about the unseen world. As he asks scholars the very questions you have about otherworldly experiences, Lee will help you: Better understand how God chooses to work in the fascinating supernatural realm-and why it is important Avoid common mistakes people make, including both ignoring the supernatural and becoming obsessed with it. Have answers ready for when you face objections or deceptions that are common in a world of supernatural counterfeits. Draw closer to God as you catch glimpses of his power and glory in ways you don't typically experience Written for skeptics and believers alike, Seeing the Supernatural is a transformative exploration of how the supernatural can shape our understanding of God's character and our own faith"--

Interpretations of love : a novel / by Campbell, Jane,1942-author.;
"From the acclaimed author of the "trail-blazing" (Oprah Daily) collection of stories Cat Brushing comes a profound and entertaining debut novel about the ways we experience, perceive, and misunderstand love. When Jane Campbell published Cat Brushing in her eightieth year, the debut was lauded as an "excellent, pathbreaking collection" (New York Times Book Review). Blending unique insight with a wry sense of humor, Jane Campbell brought a fresh and much-needed perspective to a generation of women often overlooked. In her incisive debut novel, Interpretations of Love, she digs even deeper into the psyches and emotional barriers of a demographic shaped by war and by the social strictures of the twentieth century. It's the week of Dr. Agnes Stacey's only daughter's wedding, and each of the eleven attendees of the small family gathering is bringing their own simmering tensions to the event. Agnes's uncle, Professor Malcolm Miller, has harbored a family secret since her parents -- his sister and brother-in-law -- died in a car crash when she was a young girl. Dr. Joseph Bradshaw, who distantly married into the family, has nursed a secret obsession with Agnes since his brief stint as her therapist. Agnes herself will be returning to her ex-husband's home for the first time, just as she's trying to extricate herself from a potent love affair. Each of them has the tools to analyze the love lives of others, yet find themselves unable to recognize the love in their own lives. And though they've each muddled through painful years in emotional isolation, only Malcolm knows that the origins of their thwarted attachments all lie in the same English seaside town. Where better to lay bare the failures and secrets of one's advancing age than at an intimate celebration of love? In this utterly involving novel, Campbell parses the fraught inner lives of ordinary people doing their best to process the aftershocks of war, the parenting they do and don't receive, and the many different forms love can take in one family"--

Joy : life lessons from a Tuscan villa / by Travis, Debbie,author.; Brown, Jacky,author.;
"For more than ten years, Debbie Travis has watched the guests who come to her Tuscan retreats transform over the course of a single week of talking, walking, and eating together, until even the most driven and stressed-out feel so much better about themselves. When it's time to leave, they tell her it's the simple priorities of Tuscan life--the way the village locals, from young to old, take time for each other every day--that hit them in their hearts, and they pepper her with questions about how to retain what they've experienced when they get home. In Joy, Debbie offers the answers she gives them to all of us, capturing the essentials of the Tuscan lifestyle in a series of ten engaging and practical lessons--on everything from how to get a good night's sleep, to how to find community and rediscover purpose, to how to eat and drink like an Italian--designed to make our lives sweeter and healthier. Delightfully down-to-earth, Debbie draws on her own life experience, the example of her Tuscan neighbours, whose fabled longevity springs from the wisdom she captures in her lessons, and the expertise of her long-time friend and colleague, nutritional therapist Jacky Brown. Whether you wish to hit the reset button, start a new endeavour, regain your confidence, turn a page in your relationship, make changes to your worklife or your community, or simply reboot your vitality, these lessons will help guide you to a life filled with joy."--

For once, they want to know what it’s like to be baddies—rotten to the core! They want thrills and excitement! But to get really good at being bad, they’re going to need some experience. What if the dastardly duo started returning library books late on purpose? Or borrowing markers without asking? Everyone knows it’s a swift downhill slide from there—as long as there’s an unprotected piggy bank in town! Unless, of course, their best attempts at mastering bad deeds are strangely misconstrued . . . Author Megan McDonald brings her quick wit and ear for dialogue, matched by Scott Nash’s deft animal characterizations, to a hilarious caper of criminal intentions gone awry.Children/juvenile.
