survive. But the route can be treacherous, and some folks aren't as
keen to let a woman pave her own way. If Honey wants to bring the
freedom books provide to the families who need it most, she's going
to have to fight for her place, and along the way, learn that the
extraordinary women who run the hills and hollers can make all the

A complete guide to tantric sex in a 3-volume boxed set. In this
three-volume boxed set, tantric sex teachers Diana and Michael
Richardson present practices to help couples enrich their sex life
with the spiritual, healing power of sex. In Tantric Orgasm for
Women, Diana explores Tantra from the female perspective, sharing
her more than 20 years of research and revealing how relaxation is
the key to achieving deep orgasmic states. She looks at how
receptive feminine energy influences the male-female exchange,
provides ancient tantric meditations and breathing exercises for
increased sensitivity and awareness, and explores the role of the
clitoris, breasts, and vagina in achieving orgasm. In Tantric Sex
for Men, Diana and Michael show men how to move beyond
goal-oriented sex and relax into sex as a meditative union of
complementary energies. They include foreplay approaches and
diagrams of sexual position sequences, explore the
relationship-strengthening benefits of deep sustained penetration,
and explain how to perform soft penetration and avoid premature
ejaculation. In Slow Sex, Diana provides a step-by-step guide for
committed couples to explore the healing, spiritual power of slow
sex and awaken the body’s innate mechanism for ecstasy and
pleasure. She explains how slow sex increases sensitivity and
sexual vitality as well as creating and restoring love. Providing
illustrations of different positions for eye contact, deep
sustained penetration, and soft penetration, she shows how the
practice of slow sex provides couples a way to reach a shared
meditative state and use it as a vehicle to achieve higher
consciousness. Enabling committed couples to develop a personal
tantric sex practice, the authors reveal how to keep your sex life
sustainable, fulfilling, and enjoyable for many decades to come as
well as how to harness the power of sex to access extraordinary
realms of sensitivity, sensuality, and higher consciousness.

packhorse librarian and her quest to bring books to the Appalachian
community she loves, perfect for readers of William Kent Kreuger
and Lisa Wingate. The perfect addition to your next book club! The
hardscrabble folks of Troublesome Creek have to scrap for
everything-everything except books, that is. Thanks to Roosevelt's
Kentucky Pack Horse Library Project, Troublesome's got its very own
traveling librarian, Cussy Mary Carter. Cussy's not only a book
woman, however, she's also the last of her kind, her skin a shade
of blue unlike most anyone else. Not everyone is keen on Cussy's
family or the Library Project, and a Blue is often blamed for any
whiff of trouble. If Cussy wants to bring the joy of books to the
hill folks, she's going to have to confront prejudice as old as the
Appalachias and suspicion as deep as the holler. Inspired by the
true blue-skinned people of Kentucky and the brave and dedicated
Kentucky Pack Horse library service of the 1930s, The Book Woman of
Troublesome Creek is a story of raw courage, fierce strength, and
one woman's belief that books can carry us anywhere-even back home.

Feature length animation of the Marvel comic book hero with magical
powers. Dr. Stephen Strange was one of the most gifted surgeons in
medicine before his hands were left shattered and useless as a
result of a car crash. Spending his fortune in pursuit of a way to
fix his fractured body, the dejected doctor believed all was lost
until the 'Ancient One' offered him hope and healing in Tibet.
Training mind, body and soul with the Ancient One and his pupils,
Doctor Strange's scope, power and compassion grow as he steps
closer to his mystical fate. But to fully embrace his destiny and
protect the worlds of magic and reality, Strange must face
betrayal, death and the emergence of Dormammu.
Emerging from the disruption of the First World War, surrealism
confronted the resulting 'crisis of consciousness' in a way that
was arguably more profound than any other cultural movement of the
time. The past few decades have seen an expansion of interest in
surrealist writers, whose contribution to the history of ideas in
the twentieth-century is only now being recognised. Surrealism: Key
Concepts is the first book in English to present an overview of
surrealism through the central ideas motivating the popular
movement. An international team of contributors provide an
accessible examination of the key concepts, emphasising their
relevance to current debates in social and cultural theory. This
book will be an invaluable guide for students studying a range of
disciplines, including Philosophy, Anthropology, Sociology and
Cultural Studies, and anyone who wishes to engage critically with
surrealism for the first time. Contributors: Dawn Ades, Joyce
Cheng, Jonathan P. Eburne, Krzysztof Fijalkowski, Guy Girard,
Raihan Kadri, Michael Loewy, Jean-Michel Rabate, Michael
Richardson, Donna Roberts, Bertrand Schmitt, Georges Sebbag,
Raymond Spiteri, and Michael Stone-Richards.
Youth Theatre: Drama for Life defines the youth theatre process, by
outlining its constituent parts and explaining how these activities
work in order to support young people's development. As well as
describing what is done in youth theatre, it also explores why it's
done and how to ensure the best possible outcomes. The book is in
four parts: Part 1 explores the nature and purpose of youth
theatre, drawing on Michael Richardson's extensive personal
experience as a practitioner and manager. Part 2 explains, in
detail, the youth theatre process: warming up, playing games, voice
work, developing skills, devising and the presentation of devised
work. Part 3 discusses how to create an appropriate environment
within which the youth theatre process can be most effectively
applied. Part 4 covers the most common applications of the youth
theatre process, namely using it in different education
environments; and youth theatre productions and performance. On top
of this, two appendices give a list of over 60 games that are
useful to use in youth theatre; and a list of recommended further
reading that supports this book. As well as giving key tips and
advice from his own invaluable experience, Richardson offers
comments from practitioners and participants on what makes a
successful youth theatre experience. Michael Richardson has worked
in youth theatre for over 20 years, has been involved in the
training of other practitioners, and in the strategic development
of the youth theatre sector in the UK.

"Durham City: Past and Present" is a new book which brings together
about 400 photographs of the city. Each old picture is accompanied
by a recent image to show the reader how the city has changed.
Parts of the city have been altered beyond recognition in the last
40 years or so, and this book has been compiled as a permanent
record of what was once there and now has gone. The book is broadly
divided into areas: the City Centre, North Road, Old Elvet and New
Elvet, Crossgate, Claypath and Gilesgate. Whether you are a
resident of Durham or a visitor, this book will appeal to all. Many
of the old bygone scenes are now lost and can only be identified by
matching up with a recent image. Like Michael's previous books,
this is a welcome addition and companion to his other Breedon
titles and will no doubt become another treasured possession.

Georges Bataille is now recognized as one of the most important
thinkers of the 20th century. Fascinated by the excessive movement
of life, Bataille developed a complex philosophy based upon
examination of the interplay between death and eroticism. For him,
eroticism was the foundation of human experience, providing a sharp
insight into the basis of human society and the response of the
individual to it. Largely neglected during his lifetime, Bataille's
influence has grown during the last thirty years, first in France
and more recently in the UK and the US, where it has often been
associated with the rise of post-structuralism and postmodernism.
This text argues that his work is often misunderstood and conflated
too readily with postmodernism; instead, the author treats Bataille
as a multi-faceted thinker who does not fit in easily with any
simple categorization.

What happens when suddenly the wind changes and the loving
connection between two partners is disrupted for hours or even
days? Why is love associated with ups and downs? The answer is
simple although not obvious - usually a wave of emotion which has
roots in the past floods the atmosphere. The authors show in easy
to follow steps how to recognise emotions, to leave them behind,
and to create space for the expression of real feelings where love
has a chance.
