A Blonde Bengali Wife
They all said that Bangladesh would be an experience... For Anne Hamilton, a three-month winter programme of travel and "cultural exchange" in a country where the English language, fair hair, and a rice allergy are all extremely rare was always going to be interesting, challenging, and frustrating. What they didn't tell Anne was that it would also be sunny, funny, and the start of a love affair with this unexplored area of Southeast Asia. A Blonde Bengali Wife shows the lives beyond the poverty, monsoons, and diarrhoea of Bangladesh and charts a vibrant and fascinating place where one minute Anne is levelling a school playing field "fit for the national cricket team," and then cobbling toget...
Ann Hamilton: Sense
Ann Hamilton believes that projects can be considered, not as artifacts or something to be documented, but as their own material object?in this case, a book. While 'Sense' contains images that Hamilton has accumulated over many years, of people and of objects that conflate touch, light, and surface, the book also becomes an object in hand, a thing felt, an artwork in itself. Mallarmé begins 'The Book: Spiritual Instrument' with, ?Everything in the world exists to end up as a book.? While working on the building-wide project, the common SENSE with Sylvia Wolf, this idea inspired Hamilton: ??.maybe the form of the project is not the installation or the exhibition or all the weeks of time and programming?.maybe the actual form of the project is a book?.and the installation is the work and the process for generating the book?s questions and materials.?
God's Poetry
What's in a name? Shakespeare said a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. But is it just an arbitrary label? In Scripture, name covenants were the embodiment of identity, destiny, power and purpose. So why do so few of us come into the calling prophetically breathed into our names. Award-winning finalist in the International Book Awards 2011 and Bronze Medallion winner in the e-lit Awards 2012.

The Breath Between Waves
Penelope Fletcher gave up everything to board the RMS Titanic. Forced to travel to America for her father's new job, Penelope left her home in Scotland, her beloved grandmother, and even her girlfriend, who promptly got engaged to someone else. Heartbroken, Penelope isn't looking forward to the weeklong journey. Or that her parents want her to find a husband in America. To make matters worse, she also has to share a cabin with a complete stranger. Ruby Cole, her spunky Irish roommate, is unlike anyone Penelope ever met. They become fast friends as they bond over crushing family expectations and sneaking into lush parties together. That Ruby likes women, too, comes as a surprise to Penelope, but she knows their affair can only be temporary. Because as soon as the Titanic arrives in New York, Penelope will have to marry someone of her father’s choosing. Before long, though, they’ll both have to decide what–and who–is really worth fighting for.
Martin & Anne
Anne Frank and Martin Luther King Jr. were born the same year a world apart. Both faced ugly prejudices and violence, which both answered with words of love and faith in humanity. This is the story of their parallel journeys to find hope in darkness and to follow their dreams.
O N E E V E R Y O N E
Ohio State students, faculty and staff were photographed by artist and professor Ann Hamilton through a semi-transparent membrane that registersin focus only what immediately touches its surface while rendering more softly the gesture or outline of the body. In these images, touch-something we feel more than we see-is visible. In them, we feel the glance of cloth's fall, the weight of a hand, the press of a cheek, the possibility of recognition in portraits haunted by contact.Standing behind the semi-opaque film, one can hear but can not see, hidden until stepping toward the surface, guided by my voice. Each press of the object, the face, a hand, or cloth touching the membrane is revealed in...
Of Trust & Heart
It’s 1923 and the Great War has already changed Lady Harriet Cunningham’s life in every way. Now she’s left her native Scotland to come to New York to find a husband. A husband she doesn’t wish for. But for Harriet, a secret and cleverly hidden speakeasy promises all kinds of pleasures that are illegal during Prohibition—especially for those whose love is as forbidden as the contraband champagne... Harriet knows her duty. As the daughter of the Earl of Creoch, she’s expected to marry and marry well. To uphold her family’s esteemed reputation. And yet she’s here at this bar, wanting something forbidden. Someone. Because Harriet is entranced by the dark eyes and silky voice of singer Miss Rosalie Smith...and an attraction that is nothing less than a crime. But Harriet can’t live in the world of secret speakeasies and furtive, desperate longing for a woman she can never have. Marriage and respectability beckons. And soon Rosalie will have to choose between the life she’s expected to live...and the breathtaking woman she can’t live without.
