Inspired by the life of a real person, this is a story of brilliance and insanity and how one man’s fate impacts on three generations. A tale of love and loss set against the background of politics and the machinations of bureaucracy. Clara, a naïve young woman, leaves her native Amsterdam to live with Peter in Australia. They are happy, but slowly, imperceptibly, change creeps in. It builds up, their love turns to ruins. Separated and with a young daughter who adores her father, Clara is faced with agonizing choices. The contrast between her personal struggles and the concerns of the people around her – career bureaucrats who design services for the vulnerable – could not be more farcical. How does Clara navigate through her web of circumstances? What happens when her decisions escape from the personal and become wide-ranging?

Ceres

Lutherous Nie and the Warriors of Faith

By: Justin,Lawrence,Gabrielle Scariano

Professor Lutherous Nie is director of the Deity Settlement on the terraformed planetoid Ceres, which orbits Earth as a second moon. He is also an egocentric jerk, obsessed with harvesting the crystalline energy of Ceres as a power source to save the dying Sun. He and other individuals with strong telepathic talents use the unique energy to manipulate the forces of nature. Thus magic, born of science, is brought into the world. Unknown to Nie, there are others intoxicated with the power of crystalline energy who will stop at nothing to possess it all. When the Ceres Project is sabotaged, the planetoid is thrown into another dimension. Nie awakes to a medieval world of magic from which many of Earths myths and fables are derived. Demonized by the gods of Ceres, Nie must learn to see beyond his own selfish needs if he is to ever return home to his wife and daughter. Standing against Nie are the Warriors of Faith, those who fight for the gods of Ceres. Among these are a superhero (of sorts) mentored by Al Capone, a teenage witch from Old Salem, a troubled modern-day Chicago youth, an Aussi rogue, and a band of misfit medieval adventurers including Justa, a 10-year-old wizard prodigy. The warriors are on a collision course with Lutherous Nie and his army of sentient beasts in a race to discover the true source of evil threatening both Ceres and Earth. Ceres: Lutherous Nie and the Warriors of Faith is an epic fantasy combining future technology, modern tribulations and historic/mythic characters in a magical medieval setting. Whether you like Sci-Fi, comedy, romance, or tragedy; wizards, cowboys, astronauts, or contemporary teen angst LNWOF has a little something for everyone and every age.

American Baby

A Mother, a Child, and the Secret History of Adoption

By: Gabrielle Glaser

A New York Times Notable Book The shocking truth about postwar adoption in America, told through the bittersweet story of one teenager, the son she was forced to relinquish, and their search to find each other. “[T]his book about the past might foreshadow a coming shift in the future… ‘I don’t think any legislators in those states who are anti-abortion are actually thinking, “Oh, great, these single women are gonna raise more children.” No, their hope is that those children will be placed for adoption. But is that the reality? I doubt it.’”[says Glaser]” -Mother Jones During the Baby Boom in 1960s America, women were encouraged to stay home and raise large families, but sex and childbirth were taboo subjects. Premarital sex was common, but birth control was hard to get and abortion was illegal. In 1961, sixteen-year-old Margaret Erle fell in love and became pregnant. Her enraged family sent her to a maternity home, where social workers threatened her with jail until she signed away her parental rights. Her son vanished, his whereabouts and new identity known only to an adoption agency that would never share the slightest detail about his fate. The adoption business was founded on secrecy and lies. American Baby lays out how a lucrative and exploitative industry removed children from their birth mothers and placed them with hopeful families, fabricating stories about infants' origins and destinations, then closing the door firmly between the parties forever. Adoption agencies and other organizations that purported to help pregnant women struck unethical deals with doctors and researchers for pseudoscientific "assessments," and shamed millions of women into surrendering their children. The identities of many who were adopted or who surrendered a child in the postwar decades are still locked in sealed files. Gabrielle Glaser dramatically illustrates in Margaret and David’s tale--one they share with millions of Americans—a story of loss, love, and the search for identity.

Justa and the Victorian Rogue

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Justa and the Victorian Rogue

By: Lawrence; Justin; Gabrielle Scariano

Preface from Justa and the Victorian Rogue: In the distant future Earth has a sister moon, the terriformed planetoid Ceres. It is a beautiful world with crystalline mountains and unique creatures specifically bioengineered to fit its ecosystem. Human science has also developed “magic” which is actually the result of the redirection and molding of energy released from dense crystals by individuals with psychokinetic abilities. Crystalline energy and magic have made it possible for the human race to travel to and populate the stars. The story before you takes place on the planetoid of Ceres long after it and Earth are separated through time and space by a cataclysm. Intelligent life on Ceres was extinguished but reborn without any knowledge of the planet’s true origin. Eventually, societies sprang forth with unique religions, governments and economic systems. But this was not to mean they were not somehow influenced by the goings on of the peoples of Earth. Both Earth and Ceres, while dimensionally separate, maintain connections between them which allowed travel from one world to the other. These portals, or bridges were little known and passage through them was rare but not so rare that the cultures on either side were not influenced by the others. Most remarkable was that these portals transcended time; one might lead to Egypt in the times of the pharaohs while another might bridge Ceres with the wild gun-slinging days of Australia in the 1800’s. Justa and the Victorian Rogue is a chapter in a much larger story. Justa is a young wizard, son to a warrior couple bent on avenging the death of friends of the past. In order to earn the right for such a quest they must first fulfill a dangerous mission against an outlaw gang influenced by motives and technologies of a different world. Warriors, swords and wizards face off against guns, fists and cowboys. Along the way Justa befriends the notorious Edward “Ned” Kelly and begins an adventure that may someday save not only one world, but two.

Life’s Secret is Flow This book is thick and encyclopedic and has every Intentional Feng Shui cure known to humankind (according to Gabrielle Alizay). It is the scientific, long form version of Feng Shui, inspired by Black Hat Tibetan school of thought and written by Gabrielle in a humorous style—non-judgmental and realistic—because life is hard enough. This book is how to make things easier. In the flow. This Second Edition version, which includes added Mouth of Chi cures, is to be used along with Gabrielle’s latest book, Quantum Feng Shui: 9 Accomplishments to Promote Personal and Planetary Peace whenever you intuitively ‘sense’ that you need more wattage with whatever home and office renewals you have made. Originally published in 2005 by Writers’ Collective, this Feng Shui go-to guide is highly proclaimed as being ‘a book which takes the mystery out of how-to Feng Shui’ and has a detailed, thorough study of Feng Shui Cures, or “Amplifications,” that can be used in tandem with Quantum Feng Shui™ Accomplishments to take in your home and office to inspire major optimistic transformation on every level. In fact, every intentional ritual and action in this book will make your home and office even more of a microcosmic view of peace, health, love, abundance and bliss—and add potency to whatever Quantum Feng Shui™ has already activated exquisitely. This book is for the activist healer who wants more. No need to stand in line. It is all here. — “Feng Shui For The Rest Of Us by Gabrielle Alizay demystifies the art of Feng Shui and makes it a tool we can all use. With a healthy dose of humor and straightforward instructions, she shows readers how to put Feng Shui principles into practice in their homes for a more balanced and peaceful atmosphere.” - Martha Stewart’s Body+Soul magazine, December 2005 issue “Makes Feng Shui principles accessible for the average person!” - Denise Linn, author of Sacred Spaces “A down-to-earth guide to Feng Shui, one of the best to come along in years. If you want to change any aspect of your life, this book is all you need. Terrific!” - Denise Osborne, author of The Feng Shui Mystery Series

The Color Bind

Talking (and Not Talking) About Race at Work

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Color Bind

Talking (and Not Talking) About Race at Work

By: Erica Gabrielle Foldy,Tamara R. Buckley

Since the 1960s, the dominant model for fostering diversity and inclusion in the United States has been the “color blind” approach, which emphasizes similarity and assimilation and insists that people should be understood as individuals, not as members of racial or cultural groups. This approach is especially prevalent in the workplace, where discussions about race and ethnicity are considered taboo. Yet, as widespread as “color blindness” has become, many studies show that the practice has damaging repercussions, including reinforcing the existing racial hierarchy by ignoring the significance of racism and discrimination. In The Color Bind, workplace experts Erica Foldy and Tamara Buckley investigate race relations in office settings, looking at how both color blindness and what they call “color cognizance” have profound effects on the ways coworkers think and interact with each other. Based on an intensive two-and-a-half-year study of employees at a child welfare agency, The Color Bind shows how color cognizance—the practice of recognizing the profound impact of race and ethnicity on life experiences while affirming the importance of racial diversity—can help workers move beyond silence on the issue of race toward more inclusive workplace practices. Drawing from existing psychological and sociological research that demonstrates the success of color-cognizant approaches in dyads, workgroups and organizations, Foldy and Buckley analyzed the behavior of work teams within a child protection agency. The behaviors of three teams in particular reveal the factors that enable color cognizance to flourish. While two of the teams largely avoided explicitly discussing race, one group, “Team North,” openly talked about race and ethnicity in team meetings. By acknowledging these differences when discussing how to work with their clients and with each other, the members of Team North were able to dig into challenges related to race and culture instead of avoiding them. The key to achieving color cognizance within the group was twofold: It required both the presence of at least a few members who were already color cognizant, as well as an environment in which all team members felt relatively safe and behaved in ways that strengthened learning, including productively resolving conflict and reflecting on their practice. The Color Bind provides a useful lens for policy makers, researchers and practitioners pursuing in a wide variety of goals, from addressing racial disparities in health and education to creating diverse and inclusive organizations to providing culturally competent services to clients and customers. By foregrounding open conversations about race and ethnicity, Foldy and Buckley show that institutions can transcend the color bind in order to better acknowledge and reflect the diverse populations they serve.

Paperback Crush

The Totally Radical History of '80s and '90s Teen Fiction

By: Gabrielle Moss

For fans of vintage YA, a humorous and in-depth history of beloved teen literature from the 1980s and 1990s, full of trivia and pop culture fun. Those pink covers. That flimsy paper. The nonstop series installments that hooked readers throughout their entire adolescence. These were not the serious-issue novels of the 1970s, nor the blockbuster YA trilogies that arrived in the 2000s. Nestled in between were the girl-centric teen books of the ’80s and ’90s—short, cheap, and utterly adored. In Paperback Crush, author Gabrielle Moss explores the history of this genre with affection and humor, highlighting the best-known series along with their many diverse knockoffs. From friendship clubs and school newspapers to pesky siblings and glamorous beauty queens, these stories feature girl protagonists in all their glory. Journey back to your younger days, a time of girl power nourished by sustained silent reading. Let Paperback Crush lead you on a visual tour of nostalgia-inducing book covers from the library stacks of the past.

A Woman Who Defends All the Persons of Her Sex

Selected Philosophical and Moral Writings

By: Gabrielle Suchon

During the oppressive reign of Louis XIV, Gabrielle Suchon (1632–1703) was the most forceful female voice in France, advocating women’s freedom and self-determination, access to knowledge, and assertion of authority. This volume collects Suchon’s writing from two works—Treatise on Ethics and Politics (1693) and On the Celibate Life Freely Chosen; or, Life without Commitments (1700)—and demonstrates her to be an original philosophical and moral thinker and writer. Suchon argues that both women and men have inherently similar intellectual, corporeal, and spiritual capacities, which entitle them equally to essentially human prerogatives, and she displays her breadth of knowledge as she harnesses evidence from biblical, classical, patristic, and contemporary secular sources to bolster her claim. Forgotten over the centuries, these writings have been gaining increasing attention from feminist historians, students of philosophy, and scholars of seventeenth-century French literature and culture. This translation, from Domna C. Stanton and Rebecca M. Wilkin, marks the first time these works will appear in English.

Objectives And Outcomes: Questioning The Practice Of Therapy

By: Elton Wilson, Jenifer,Syme, Gabrielle

What do clients look for in psychotherapy? Do clients and therapists have the same objectives? Is the outcome what the client or therapist hoped for? This is an essential book for all those who have wondered what the purpose of psychological therapy is, the procedures that are involved and the results that are achieved. The authors are experienced psychotherapists who share their personal experiences of the therapeutic process and question these in the light of relevant research. Practitioners are interested in linking the objectives and outcomes of therapeutic engagement. This book provides a critical assessment of how these links can be used creatively to enhance the effectiveness of their practice, in a variety of settings and contexts. Taking the form of discourse between the authors, the book is accessible to all levels of knowledge and practice. It is enlivened with dialogue, case studies and a mini-research project that was carried out with fellow practitioners in a series of workshops. Objectives and Outcomesgives practitioners an overview of current knowledge on these important topics and suggests forms of research that therapists might use in their own work.

31 Journaling Devotions on Friendship (for Girls, by Girls)

By: Cambria Joy Dam-Mikkleson,Tega Faafa,Lauren Groves,Kolby Knell,Alexus Lee,Gabrielle McCullough,Alena Pitts,Yvonne Faith Russell,Tara Sun

As the world experiences a loneliness epidemic, we need friendship as much as we ever have before. People could live their whole lives online. School, church, work, and a social life can all be found on the internet, providing opportunities to trade deep friendships for convenient yet shallow acquaintances. The easier it becomes to be independent, the harder it is to find togetherness––especially for teen girls and young women. Hey Friend: 31 Journaling Devotions on Friendship helps girls know that God made them for friendship. They don’t have to live life alone. Each devotion is written by young women for young women and offers relatable stories of friendship, passages of Scripture, journaling questions, and practical ways to find friends instead of staying isolated. Friendships end, begin, and change all the time, and Hey Friend is every girl's guide to learning how to navigate friendship in changing seasons from switching schools to going off to college to needing to walk away from certain friendships and invest in others. Writers Cambria Joy Dam-Mikkleson, Tega Faafa, Alexus Lee, Lauren Groves, Kolby Knell, Gabrielle McCullough, Alena Pitts, Yvonne Faith Russell, and Tara Sun each write about what the Bible has to say about friendship and what it means for each reader’s friendships today. Their stories are honest and heartbreaking, hilarious and sincere, encouraging and empowering. They beckon readers not to simply take their advice, but to search for what God's Word has to say about community and companionship. These devotions will help young women: handle drama in friendship know what to do when feeling isolated speak highly of friends instead of gossiping find trustworthy friends love friends like Jesus did pray for friends discover the Bible's themes of friendship Hey Friend is a tool for togetherness in a lonely world. It reminds girls that God made people to be with people, and He wants our friendships to flourish.

Included in Time's 100 Must Read Books of 2021 list * A New York Times Best Seller * One of Audible's Best of The Year * AV Club's Best Books to Buy “Funny, tender, and so good.” — Mindy Kaling, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Why Not Me? Remember when we hit it off so well that we decided We’re Going to Need More Wine? Well, this time you and I are going to turn to our friend the bartender and ask, You Got Anything Stronger? I promise to continue to make you laugh, but with this round, the stakes get higher as the conversation goes deeper. So. Where were we? Right, you and I left off in October 2017, when my first book came out. The weeks before were filled with dreams of loss. Pets dying. My husband leaving me. Babies not being born. My therapist told me it was my soul preparing for my true self to emerge after letting go of my grief. I had finally spoken openly about my fertility journey. I was having second thoughts—in fact, so many thoughts they were organizing to go on strike. But I knew I had to be honest because I didn’t want other women going through IVF to feel as alone as I did. I had suffered in isolation, having so many miscarriages that I could not give an exact number. Strangers shared their own journeys and heartbreak with me. I had led with the truth, and it opened the door to compassion. When I released We’re Going to Need More Wine, the response was so great people asked when I would do a sequel. The New York Times even ran a headline reading “We’re Going to Need More Gabrielle Union.” Frankly, after being so open and honest in my writing, I wasn’t sure there was more of me I was ready to share. But life happens with all its plot twists. And new stories demand to be told. This time, I need to be more vulnerable—not so much for me, but anyone who feels alone in what they’re going through. A lot has changed in four years—I became a mom and I’m raising two amazing girls. My husband retired. My career has expanded so that I have the opportunity to lift up other voices that need to be heard. But the world has also shown us that we have a lot we still have to fight for—as women, as black women, as mothers, as aging women, as human beings, as friends. In You Got Anything Stronger?, I show you how this ever-changing life presents challenges, even as it gives me moments of pure joy. I take you on a girl’s night at Chateau Marmont, and I also talk to Isis, my character from Bring It On. For the first time, I truly open up about my surrogacy journey and the birth of Kaavia James Union Wade. And I take on racist institutions and practices in the entertainment industry, asking for equality and real accountability. You Got Anything Stronger? is me at my most vulnerable. I have recently found true strength in that vulnerability, and I want to share that power with you here, through this book.

Henri Nouwen and The Return of the Prodigal Son

The Making of a Spiritual Classic

By: Gabrielle Earnshaw

The Return of the Prodigal Son: A Story of Homecoming is Henri Nouwen’s most popular book, selling over one million copies since its publication in 1992. What accounts for its ongoing popularity as a spiritual classic? Drawing from extensive research in Nouwen’s archives, author and Chief Archivist for the Henri Nouwen Legacy Trust, Gabrielle Earnshaw, provides a detailed account of how the book came to be written, shedding light on Nouwen’s writing process and aspects of his life experience that influenced his insights and ideas. Earnshaw examines Nouwen’s intellectual formation as well as the impact of his family and friends on the shape of the book. Letters, many published here for the first time, give us a privileged look at Henri’s world during the nine years he took to complete the book. Earnshaw considers how it compares to other books published at the same time to place the work and its author in a historical, cultural and religious/spiritual context. Finally, she explores how Nouwen himself was changed by the book and why twenty-three later it continues to touch the hearts and minds of 21st century readers.
