A Little Bit Vulnerable
In A Little Bit Vulnerable, actress Janine Turner opens up about her private life for the first time claiming she feels, "a little bit vulnerable." In this breathtaking sweep of her half a century of living, Janine journeys through the canyons of her life and how she sought horizons. Through the treasure chest of her private poetry to essays, opinion-editorials, radio interviews and letters, Janine reveals how she climbed out of the canyons of heartbreak, alcoholism, and the recent death of her father, as well as her call to action for American men, women and children to preserve American principles. In A Little Bit Vulnerable, Janine weaves wisdom from her ancestors, Publius, politicians and her own personal "life lessons," into a tapestry of triumph and takes the reader along with her. This moving memoir includes never-before-seen personal photographs of Ms. Turner and many of the famous (and infamous) people in her life.

From Friends to Family
Janine walked into the grocery store with a list. A handsome businessman and his three lovable teens weren't on it. Matthias and Janine have bumped into each other at the grocery store for weeks. His attraction to her is unavoidable, but he isn't looking for a relationship. He has his hands full with his three teenage children. When Janine and Matthias meet at a high school community clean up, she decides avoiding him is the safest option. He sees that she is more than the cute woman who likes to eat steak for dinner, especially after Janine takes his handful of a daughter under her wing. Matthias's three kids collaborate to prove Janine's feistiness is the perfect balance for Matthias's overly serious disposition. And the plan would work if the adults would follow the script. As Janine and Matthias work together to help his kids through their problems, they learn along with them that mistakes are meant to be forgiven; I'm sorry is as powerful as I love you, and second chances are just as fun as new beginnings. From Friends to Family is a small-town, feel good, love story that will leave you with a smile long after you turn the last page.
324 Hope Road
She had one rule Love-shy Janine has gawked at the man she nicknamed Fix-It-Bob for weeks. They see each other every Wednesday at the grocery store. He's cute, but she knows men have expectations higher than what she can meet. Ergo her solid look-but-don’t-touch policy.

And whenever she is with his family, the room seems a little brighter. Janine and Matthias will soon discover that love has only one expectation of them–one neither thought they’d be able to meet. Or could they?
Reading Aboriginal Women's Life Stories
A wave of life stories and autobiographical narratives by Aboriginal women began in the late 1970s and gained momentum a decade later with the publication of Sally Morgan’s My Place (1987), which became a bestseller. While some of the books of the first wave focused mainly (if not exclusively) on the author, Aboriginal women’s life stories widened over time to include transgenerational histories of the family. Reading Aboriginal Women’s Life Stories is an important discussion of books that have shaped our understanding of contemporary Indigenous Australian literature. Anne Brewster provides an in-depth textual analysis of three key titles and situates them in relation to concepts of history, race, gender, family, storytelling and Aboriginality in modern Australia. “Looking back, we can recognise now what an extraordinary phenomenon these life stories are, and how they have changed understandings of Aboriginality and writing … The return of this classic book in a new edition is a welcome reminder that Anne Brewster’s careful, deeply respectful and informed approach to these writings is as necessary now as it ever was.” —Professor Gillian Whitlock FAHA
Crabtracks
The essays in this collection celebrate the signal achievement of Dieter Riemenschneider in helping found and consolidate the study of postcolonial anglophone literatures in Germany and Europe. As well as poems, a short story, drawings of the Indian scene (the first, and abiding, focus of this scholar’s work), and ‘letters’ of reminiscence (one quite grave), there are revealing contributions of a literary-historical nature on the establishment of anglophone (especially African) literatures as an academic discipline within Germany, the UK, and Northern Europe generally, as well as a group of searching reflections on such topics of postcolonial import as globalization and the applicabili...
