The Mystical Life of Franz Kafka

Theosophy, Cabala, and the Modern Spiritual Revival

By: June O. Leavitt

June O. Leavitt offers a fascinating examination of the mystical in Franz Kafka's life and writings, showing that Kafka's understanding of the occult was not only a product of his own clairvoyant experiences but of the age in which he lived.

Emmeline Pankhurst

A Biography

By: June Purvis

Emmeline Pankhurst was perhaps the most influential woman of the twentieth century. Today her name is synonymous with the 'votes for women' campaign and she is remembered as the most brave and inspirational suffrage leader in history. In this absorbing account of her life both before and after the campaign for women's suffrage, June Purvis documents her early political work, her active role within the suffrage movement and her role as a wife and mother within her family. This fascinating full-length biography of Emmeline Pankhurst, the first for nearly seventy years, draws upon new approaches to feminist biography to place her within the context of her family and friends. It is based upon an unrivalled range of primary sources, including personal interviews with her surviving family.

Bob Dylan's New York

By: June Skinner Sawyers

On a snowy winter morning in 1961, Robert Zimmerman left Minnesota for New York City with a suitcase, guitar, harmonica and a few bucks in his pocket. Wasting no time upon arrival, he performed at the Cafe Wha? in his first day in the city, under the name Bob Dylan. Over the next decade the cultural milieu of Greenwich Village would foster the emergence of one of the greatest songwriters of all time. From the coffeehouses of MacDougal Street to Andy Warhol's Factory, Dylan honed his craft by drifting in and out of New York's thriving arts scenes of the 1960s and early ,70s. In this revised edition, originally published in 2011, author June Skinner Sawyers captures the thrill of how a city shaped an American icon and the people and places that were the touchstones of a legendary journey.

Retrospective

A Historiographical Aesthetic in Contemporary Singapore and Malaysia

By: June Yap

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Retrospective

A Historiographical Aesthetic in Contemporary Singapore and Malaysia

By: June Yap

Developed as an exploratory study of artworks by artists of Singapore and Malaysia, Retrospective attempts to account for contemporary artworks that engage with history. These are artworks that reference past events or narratives, of the nation and its art. Through the examination of a selection of artworks produced between 1990 and 2012, Retrospective is both an attribution and an analysis of a historiographical aesthetic within contemporary art practice. It considers that, by their method and in their assembly, these artworks perform more than a representation of a historical past. Instead, they confront history and its production, laying bare the nature and designs of the historical project via their aesthetic project. Positing an interdisciplinary approach as necessary for understanding the historiographical as aesthetic, Retrospective considers not only historical and aesthetic perspectives, but also the philosophical, by way of ontology, in order to broaden its exposition beyond the convention of historical and contextual interpretation of art. Yet, in associating these artworks with a historiographical aesthetic, this exposition may be regarded as a historiographical exercise in itself, affirming the significance of these artworks for the history of Singapore and Malaysia. In short, which history rarely is, Retrospective is about the art of historicisation and the historicisation of art.

Outside the Gate

The Inspiring True Story of an Orphaned Girl Who Survived the Abusive Canadian Foster System

By: June Smith

“Gold Strands of Hope Woven in the Dark Fabric of Trauma, Creating Healing from Darkness into the Light.” Silenced once but silent no more. June tells her true story. An orphaned child separated from her brother Freddie and her mother at age four, forever lost to each other. They were both thrown under the wheels of a system that swallowed them up. Now June raises her voice in drama and dialogue and invites the world to go with her on the journey as Ward of the Crown in Ontario, Canada. She tells her horrific story of a child born outside the gate. Moving from her pleasant early years in one of the last standing orphanages in Canada, she then enters into the foster care system. There she experiences violence and cruelty that threatens her life. It is a voice of survival. It is a voice raised in the memory of all children who have lost the battle. A voice raised for the children who are still suffering. A voice of hope. Throwing off the dark clothes of shame and fear. June found the key to open the gate and invites you to join her in her dance of freedom.

Lost in Time

Locating the Stranger in German Modernity

By: June J. Hwang

June J. Hwang’s provocative Lost in Time explores discourses of timelessness in the works of central figures of German modernity such as Walter Benjamin, Georg Simmel, Siegfried Kracauer, and Helmuth Plessner, as well as those of Alfred Döblin, Joseph Roth, and Hugo Bettauer. Hwang argues that in the Weimar Republic the move toward ahistoricization is itself a historical phenomenon, one that can be understood by exploring the intersections of discourses about urban modernity, the stranger, and German Jewish identity. These intersections shed light on conceptions of German Jewish identity that rely on a negation of the specific and temporal as a way to legitimize a historical outsider position, creating a dynamic position that simultaneously challenges and acknowledges the limitations of an outsider’s agency. She reads these texts as attempts to transcend the particular, attempts that paradoxically reveal the entanglement of the particular and the universal.

Life Maps Legacy

By: Dr. S. June Kenedy,Dr. D. Robert and DR. S. June Kenedy

It is a troubling reality to us that a great number of youngsters and parents that we have encountered have no sense of direction, and finds it difficult to make positive decisions in order to script a successful destination. Many seem to have no sense of who they are, where they want to go with their lives, or how to get there. They give the impression of being totally in charge, but in essence, they are confused. They are off to somewhere, to another world perhaps, but not a world of reality where they can feel the delights of a successful life. Life Maps Legacy series are offered to help youngsters, as well as adults, gain a focus on how to use a strategic plan of action for the successful achievement of their lifes destiny. It purports that destiny is a choice, and that to secure a positive destiny, one needs to follow a map of at least fourteen dynamic steps. Without a map, one can expect all kinds of distractions and dysfunctions, which will ultimately lead to destruction.

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

So Bad a Death

By: June Wright

The return of Maggie Byrnes, heroine of Murder in the Telephone Exchange. Maggie is married now, with a young son, and living in an outer Melbourne suburb. But violent death dogs her footsteps even in apparently tranquil Middleburn. It’s perhaps not that much of a surprise when widely disliked local bigwig James Holland (who also happens to be Maggie’s landlord) is shot, but Maggie suspects that someone is also trying to poison the infant who is his heir, and turns sleuth once more to uncover the culprits. First published in 1949, So Bad a Death is is June Wright’s second novel, which she originally planned to call Who Would Murder a Baby? Her publishers demurred, but under any title it’s a worthy sequel to Murder in the Telephone Exchange. Novelist and crime fiction historian Lucy Sussex contributes an introduction to this reissue, which also includes a fascinating interview she conducted with June Wright in 1996.

Life's Runny Eggs Turn Sunny-side Up

By: June Volgman

Looking for those sunny side up eggs in life? It doesn’t always pan out that way. Life is similar to eggs in that it can turn out so differently, depending on preparation. This story is about Elaine, her husband Richard, their daughter Mira, granddaughter Leslie and their egg-like situations. Elaine’s life is runny, sometimes totally scrambled, and at times cracked, like a hardboiled egg. Richard’s life is an omelet; it doesn’t matter what is put into it, he remains clueless. Mira was on a continuous hunt for the easy over, soft life. Once out of her shell she finally discovered life can be sunny side up. Leslie turns from poached softly, to overcooked, hard as rubber. This story starts out with Mira’s birth but pushes back time to look at the tragic life of her mother, Elaine, and the sad moments of her father Richard.

June's War

Tales of a Land Army Girl

By: June Stonebridge

June Stonebridge belonged to the Women’s Institute in the village of Helpringham in Lincolnshire, England, during the 1960s, and it was here that she was asked to lead one evening’s entertainment with a talk about her experiences in the Women’s Land Army during World War 2: apparently you could hear the laughter outside in the street and the meeting ended much later than was usual! She subsequently gave several similar talks in the area around, and one such was at the general meeting of the local British Legion. This gave June the idea of writing a book of her wartime exploits and eventually of getting it printed. Sadly, she never achieved this before she died – but with her family’s help her dream has now been realised!

Tempered Steel

By: June Whitham Holroyd

June: Tempered Steel, the second volume of author June Holroyds memoirs, continues where the first volume, Roots of Steel, finished. This volume picks up in the 1950s, including recollections of her career and her family life over the years. Holroyd describes her intriguing life in intimate and amusing detail, tracing her path through the present day. Praise for the June: Roots of Steel A great story, and a wonderful evocation of recent history. I found the story of a pioneering woman architect fascinating. Her story of life in England during WWII is engrossing and made even better by the inclusion of letters, which the author wrote at that time. The author projects a feisty temperament, which, along with her obvious talent, must have been a big help in opening career doors and achieving such a fulfilling life. Her observations of the relationships between England and the US are thought-provoking. A reader of June: Roots of Steel

Skirting Traditions: Arizona Women Writers and Journalists 1912-2012

By: Brenda Kimsey Warneka,Carol Hughes,Lois McFarland,June P. Payne,Sheila Roe,Pam Knight Stevenson

Women who skirt traditions, whether on the frontier of a young state or in a male-dominated profession, have relied on resilience, creativity, and grit to survive…and to flourish. These short biographies of twenty-eight female writers and journalists from Arizona span the one hundred years since Arizona became the forty-eighth state in the Union. They capture the emotions, the monumental and often overlooked events, and the pioneering spirit of women whose lives are now part of Arizona history. The remarkable women profiled in this anthology made the trek to Arizona from the big cities of Chicago, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C.; from the green hills of Wisconsin, and from backwater towns in Oklahoma and Pennsylvania; by covered wagon, automobile, and, later, airplane. They came with their parents or their husbands, or as single women, with and without children. They came seeking health in the sun-blessed dryness of the desert, a job, a better lifestyle. What these women had in common was their love of writing and journalism, and their ability to use the written word to earn a living, to argue a cause, and to promote the virtues, beauty, history, and people of the Southwest. The narratives in Skirting Traditions move forward from the beginning of statehood to the modern day, describing daring feats, patriotic actions, and amazing accomplishments. They are women you won't soon forget.

Chicago Beer: A History of Brewing, Public Drinking and the Corner Bar

By: June Skinner Sawyers

Drinking in the Windy City has deep roots. Long before corner bars stitched the social fabric of Chicago's neighborhoods together, raucous pioneers like Mark Beaubien were fermenting over the untapped potential of the unbroken prairie. Take a determined saunter from the clamor of Chicago's first breweries, through the hidden passages of thousands of speakeasies and then back into the current of the contemporary craft beer revival. Follow a path plastered with portraits of infamous saloonkeepers and profiles of historic bars. Author June Sawyers serves as an expert guide, stopping very so often to collect a vintage beer label, explain an original recipe or salute the heady history that sits atop the City of Big Shouders. --Back cover.

The Andrew Low House

By: Tania June Sammons

The Andrew Low House was the Savannah, Georgia, marriage home of Juliette Gordon Low, founder of the Girl Scouts, and was visited by the likes of William Makepeace Thackeray and Robert Lee. Built on a trust lot facing Lafayette Square, the house is now owned by The National Society of The Colonial Dames of America in the State of Georgia and is open as a house museum. Tania June Sammons takes readers through the house room by room, relating the history of the Low family and the enslaved people who served them. The house preserves one of the finest collections of period furnishings relating to the history of Savannah, including furniture, silver, porcelain, and paintings by some of America’s most prestigious furniture makers, including Duncan Phyfe and Joseph Barry. The parterre garden, one of the three remaining original nineteenth-century garden plans in the city, has been restored to its period condition. In this richly illustrated book, Sammons leads visitors through the house to see the following: First Floor: Front Formal Parlor, Informal Parlor, Dining Room, Low Library. Second Floor: Robert E. Lee Bedroom, Children’s Bedroom, William Makepeace Thackeray Bedroom, Bathing Room, Low Bedroom, Stiles Bedroom.

Though I Walk Through the Valley

By: June Cornelison

A riveting reading experience, Though I Walk Through the Valley is the suspense-filled story of Julie Lerette's struggle with dark forces that threaten her and her family when they buy an old fixer-upper house. The evil the family encounters comes disguised in many forms. Julie learns first-hand to hold fast to the power of God's promises; trusting that He will lead those who call upon Him through their dark valleys and onto the sunlit mountains of His grace and triumph. Although the story is based on many true-life events, some literary license has been taken. (A video of this book is also available.)

Faculty of Murder

Mother Paul Investigates

By: June Wright

Mother Paul, June Wright’s beloved nun-detective, returns to her sleuthing ways after she takes up a new position as warden of a student hall of residence at the University of Melbourne. No sooner has Judith Mornane arrived on campus than she startles her fellow residents by announcing her intention to discover the murderer of her sister, who disappeared from the same dorm a year earlier. The ever-curious Mother Paul is drawn to investigate what happened to Judith’s sister—did she simply run off for reasons best known to herself, as the police concluded, or could it be she really was murdered? Was her disappearance perhaps linked to a tragedy that happened at around the same time—the accidental drowning (in her bathtub) of the wife of one of the college’s professors? Was that drowning in fact as accidental as the official investigation suggested? Mother Paul believes the two events are connected somehow, and a further tragedy, the faked-suicide death of one of her student charges, convinces her that a particularly cruel and clever murderer is still at work within the college. She is not above a little subterfuge in the interest of discovering the truth and moves her colleagues, the students, and even the police around like so many figures on a chessboard until finally, amid high drama, the murderer is revealed.
