In Body I Trust
Lauren Stone's emotionally driven debut delves into the mind of one woman through her journey of recovery, growth, and survival. "A story that needs to be told." - Taylor Fraser, Award Winning Director of the Foreward Podcast A lot can happen in seven days, especially for someone with mental illness. Amelia is about to turn 30, but instead of celebrating, she is overpowered by her battle against anxiety and depression driven by the inner voices of her little monster- her eating disorder. But as days progress, the mundane becomes the unmanageable. She self-medicates with alcohol and sinks lower into vivid flashbacks of her and Dominic backpacking the world together. One day he went to Guatemala, the next he vanished like a ghost, leaving Amelia to remain in the depths of her eating disorder alone. That is, until she meets Emmett, her new neighbor with schizoaffective disorder she's deemed as her guardian angel from afar. Based on a true story, In Body I Trust dives into the mind of Amelia as she struggles to swim from the deepest, darkest parts of herself back to the surface, before it's too late.

The Council of Elders
'Ten pence, ten pence,' the parrot squawked, turning its head to fix him with one beady eye, 'tell your future for ten pence.' Stephen Beech is just an ordinary boy living in an ordinary world or so he's been led to believe. What he doesn't know is that his mother hasn't been wholly honest about who he really is, and now the truth is catching up with him. In a distant "When" a crisis has occurred: the vote to choose the next King Elect of the elven Council of Elders has been tied. Without a King, they are unable to govern the lands, unable to enforce laws, and worst of all, unable to stop the impending war. There is nothing more they can do, as all the elves have voted! All except one that is or rather half of one. He just doesn't know it yet

Flamboyant Fictions
Exposes a stylistic tradition of flamboyantly failed passing in queer literature and film This book posits formal experimentation as an index for evolving expressions of male homosexuality from literary modernism to the German New Wave and the present day. Ian Fleishman exposes a tradition of flamingly failed passing that is itself a surreptitious mode of passing: the flaunting of queer style as an intentionally unconvincing cover for queer content. Exploring a corpus of films and novels by André Gide, Jean Genet, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Werner Schroeter, François Ozon, and Xavier Dolan, among others, Flamboyant Fictions: The Failed Art of Passing intervenes in trenchant debates about queer agency, visibility, negativity, and disidentification. Mapping queer strategies of storytelling onto queer practices of self-invention, Flamboyant Fictions wagers that it is precisely in instances of conflict between these auteurs and their inventions that narrative becomes a laboratory for testing the sovereignty and self-determination of queer identity.

And in Health

Dan Shapiro draws on his more than twenty-five years of clinical work as a health psychologist who has researched and worked with couples facing cancer, and on his own experiences of being both the patient (having and beating Hodgkin’s lymphoma in his twenties) and the supporter/advocate (when his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer) to weave together insights on facing cancer while maintaining a strong relationship. And in Health gives advice in short lessons on the main areas of concern or conflict that can come from life with cancer—from diagnosis to treatment and ...
