The Foodie's Guide to Falling in Love

By: Stella Newman

The Foodie's Guide to Falling in Love was previously published as The Dish. The Foodie's Guide to Falling in Love by Stella Newman is the third novel from the much-loved author of Pear Shaped and Leftovers. This is a warm, passionate novel that will delight fans of Jill Mansell and Mhairi McFarlane and leave you happy and hungry in equal measure. Love is on the menu. With a side order of lies. When Laura Parker first crosses forks with Adam Bayley, she's only after one thing: his custard doughnut. But when she takes a closer look she sees a talented, handsome man who outshines the string of jokers she's been dating. There's just one problem. Adam's job means Laura has to keep her job as restaurant critic a secret. Tricky for someone who prides herself on honesty. Can the truth be put on ice long enough for love to flourish? And how can you expect your boyfriend to be honest if you're not quite telling the truth yourself? Stella Newman. Fiction has never tasted so good.

Empathy and the Phantasmic in Ethnic American Trauma Narratives

By: Stella Setka

Empathy and the Phantasmic in Ethnic American Trauma Narratives examines a burgeoning genre of ethnic American literature called phantasmic trauma narratives, which use culturally specific modes of the supernatural to connect readers to historical traumas such as slavery and genocide. Drawing on trauma theory and using an ethnic studies methodology, this book shows how phantasmic novels and films present historical trauma in ways that seek to invite reader/viewer empathy about the cultural groups represented. In so doing, the author argues that these texts also provide models of interracial alliances to encourage contemporary cross-cultural engagement as a restorative response to historical traumas. Further, the author examines how these narratives function as sites of cultural memory that provide a critical purchase on the enormity of enslavement, genocide, and dispossession.

Ministering Angels

A History of Nursing from The Crimea to The Blitz

By: Stella Bingham

In the eighteenth century professional nurses were often written off as drunk, slovenly, or cruel. In the Crimea, under Florence Nightingale's direction, they had become known as 'Ministering Angels'. By the Second World War they wore battledress and worked on the front lines, on Hospital ships and in the bombed streets of London. They were universally regarded as a fundamental, dedicated, compassionate and disciplined component of the war effort. Ministering Angels elegantly traces the intervening history, and transformation, of the profession through war and peace. And it pays tribute to the tireless visionaries who helped change nursing, the professional sphere of women, and the world in the process. This new edition features a foreword by Yvonne McEwen, official historian of the British Army Nursing Service.

Walking Ivy's Path

By: Stella Mitchell

How big was your hair in 1960? Did you have a ducktail? Or was it a beehive? The Original Big Hair Girls is a delightfully funny story of three green, country girls who go off to college and find they have a lot to learn. Sadie Songbird and her pals want you to follow their adventures - some zany, always amusing - as they join forces with Ivy and George, who you met in Stella Cooper Mitchell's Walking Ivy's Path, to conquer high school and college. Along the way you'll meet some of the most colorful characters you ever imagined, from Pea Ridge, Tennessee, Nashville to Detroit and New York City, while you relive with them the days of a more innocent time - the days of the Original Big Hair Girls. They get themselves into all kinds or trouble. They are involved with a pretty boy, a thief, and a weirdo. Their adventures include witnessing an attempted murder, being mistaken for criminals, being robbed in New York City, and kidnapping Aunt Fern from a nursing home. They found that things are often not what they seem. If you sometimes feel out of place, this is a must read book for you.

Normal

Normal

By: Stella Cooper Mitchell

Normal" is the hilarious story of four country girls, each armed with a newly acquired college diploma and $100, who take on Atlanta, Georgia. Each of them wants to change the world in her own way, but they have to make a living, too. The events in "Normal" take place in the early 1970's. It was a time of unrest, of change, and of poisonous behavior. It was a time of flower children, drugs, protests, and sit ins - almost too much for these "raised-right" girls. "Normal" is a story of a killing, a ghost, missing identity, stretching a dollar, a cheating husband who gets a taste of his own medicine, a fainting goat, a psychotic dog, an escaped criminal, and a disagreeable child who kicks Donnie Earl one time too many. The Normal girls rescue Glory when she runs away to San Francisco to become a hippie, and Sadie finds out that a blow-up bra has just a few drawbacks. And Normal is the story of a bitter-sweet love affair. It is also the story of dysfunctional characters who try to pass themselves off as being "normal.
