Crude
The author of Poison, Dark Angels, Crash Diet, Porn and others has penned another edgy erotic thriller. One not for the faint of heart! Ten female specialists and ten grizzled wildcatters are thrown together on a derelict offshore drilling rig. However, someone has arrived ahead them – someone intent on killing. The Supervisor is murdered, two female divers violated, and the radio-room is ransacked leaving the women cutoff and vulnerable. As one would expect, the line-of-command unravels. Seizing the opportunity, the men are determined to take from the women what isn't rendered willingly. Two female specialists who attempt to escape the butchery are stripped and found with their faces bound between each others’ thighs: a dire warning to the others. The women rebel when an arms locker is discovered and retribution is swift: The Foreman loses his parenting gear to the nurse's scalpel. But the women have yet to meet the real enemy. Super-yacht Excelsior waits, just beyond the horizon.
“My Soul Is A Witness”
This special collection assembles some of the most pre-eminent scholars in the field in African, African American, and American Studies to explore the ways writers reclaim the Black female body in African American literature using the theoretical, social, cultural, and religious frameworks of spirituality and religion. Central to these discussions is Black women’s agency within these realms—their uncanny ability to invent and reinvent themselves within individual and communal spaces that frame them as both outsider and insider, unworthy and worthy, deviant and sacred, excess and minimal. Scholars have sought to discuss these tensions, acknowledged and affirmed in prose, poetry, music, essays, speeches, written plays, or short stories. Forgiveness, healing, redemption, and reclamation provide entry into these vibrant explorations of self-discovery, passion, and self-creation that interrogate traditional views of what is spiritual and what is religious. Discussed writers include Toni Morrison, Phillis Wheatley, James Baldwin, Tina McElroy Ansa, Toni Cade Bambara, and Thomas Dorsey.
Imagination, Illness and Injury
How does the body influence the way we see the world? Imagination, Illness and Injury examines the psychological factors behind perceptual limitations and distortions and links a broad range of somatic manifestations with their resolution. Melanie Starr Costello applies Jungian theory to a variety of cases, attributing psychosomatic phenomena to cognitive processes that are common to us all. She analyses the role of illness in several life narratives, and interprets the appearance of somatic phenomena during important phases of analytic treatment. Together these case narratives present a significant challenge to established views of psychosomatics. Subjects covered include: archetypal constrictions of identity somatic elements of perception the psyche-soma split. Imagination, Illness and Injury brings a fresh perspective to the understanding and treatment of the psychotherapy client as a psycho-somatic unity. Jungian analysts, psychoanalysts, and psychotherapists will greatly benefit from the clinical applications of archetypal theory presented here.
