Three generations of indomitable women navigate life on their terms in an epic and inspiring historical novel about love and war, family secrets, and mothers and daughters finding the freedom to fly.It’s 1943. The war rages. The newly launched WASP program is recruiting. And barnstormer fan Georgeanne “George” Ector’s dream is to take to the skies. Grit is what she inherited from her mother, an Oklahoma farm girl at the turn of the century who preferred taking apart an engine to stitching linens for a hope chest. She taught her daughter well. George isn’t the only woman about to follow her calling.Vivian Shaw, so similar to George they’re like sisters, also longs for a career flying the fastest planes in the American arsenal. For a time, George and Vivian triumph. But at war’s end, the adventurous women are grounded by the expectations of others: to get married, have children, and raise a family. Vivian has other plans. So, eventually, do George’s daughters, Ruth and Ivy, who embark on very different paths of their own.Three generations of women staring down a vast horizon of possibilities are determined to navigate whatever comes their way—from the hardships of war and home to love ...

An atmospheric and dramatic novel set in mid-century Montana by the acclaimed author of Six Days of the Condor. *A PEOPLE Most Anticipated Read*"Grady''s style is loose, colorful, challenging and fun. I sometimes thought of Orwell’s novel 1984, sometimes of the Dylan song ''Desolation Row.''"—Patrick Anderson, The Washington Post For the teenaged Luc, his days are preoccupied with the daily dramas of high school. President John F. Kennedy''s assassination seems a world away. But the winds of history find their way to his small Montana town as marijuana clouds rise in the hallways and the notices of neighborhood young men "Killed in Action" in Vietnam keep arriving at an increasing rate. Acclaimed novelist James Grady''s American Sky brings to life the world of a young man who is caught in the nexus of vast social change. From blue-collar life in the heartland to Kent State and the Civil Rights movement, American Sky is a sweeping narrative that builds to a crime that threatens to tear Luc''s world apart. Previously compared to Larry McMurtry, George Orwell, Harper Lee, and Bob Dylan, James Grady explores Bruce Springsteen''s generation and has crafted an action-filled and timeless story destined to become a classic.

Award-winning author, Carolyn Custis James has unearthed startling new insights from a well-worn story that have life-changing implications for us today.Through careful and dynamic biblical scholarship, rediscover the story of Ruth and its characters. Naomi is no longer regarded as a bitter, complaining woman, but as a courageous overcomer. Ruth, typically admired for her devotion to Naomi, is seen as a gutsy risk-taker and a powerful agent for change among God’s people. Boaz, the Kinsman Redeemer, is repeatedly caught off-guard by Ruth’s initiatives. His partnership with her models the kind of relationships that the gospel intends for all who follow Jesus.Carolyn Custis James drills down deeper into the story where she uncovers in the Old Testament the same passionate, counter-cultural, rule-breaking gospel that Jesus modeled and taught his followers to pursue.

Lze nalézt smysl v něčem tak prchavém, jako je kreativita? Kniha Zrozeni tvořit, vycházející z převratného výzkumu psychologa Scotta Barryho Kaufmana a populárního článku Carolyn Gregoireové na portálu Huffi ngton Post, nabízí pohled do neuspořádaných myslí velmi kreativních lidí. Odhaluje nejnovější zjištění v oboru neurologie a psychologie a spojuje je s poutavými příklady umělců, myslitelů a vynálezců v průběhu století. Přibližuje tak životní praxi a užitečné návyky, které podporují tvůrčí způsob uvažování. Kaufman a Gregoireová rozplétají sérii paradoxů, jako jsou například vědomá pozornost a denní snění, vážnost a hra, otevřenost a citlivost či samota a spolupráce, a předvádějí, jak se díky přijetí vlastních protikladů můžeme napojit na nejhlubší zdroje své kreativity. Každá kapitola zkoumá jeden z deseti rysů a zvyků mimořádně tvůrčích osobností: Nápaditá hra, Vášeň, Denní snění, Samota, Intuice, Otevřenost vůči zkušenosti, Vědomá pozornost, Citlivost, Obrátit nesnáze ve svůj prospěch, Myslet jinak.

Budoucnost prochází žaludkem. Snad žádnou tělesnou potřebu nepociťujeme tak naléhavě jako hlad a žízeň. Starost o plný žaludek proto stojí v základu každého života i celé lidské civilizace: od toho, co jíme, jak jídlo vyrábíme, přepravujeme, uchováváme a pořizujeme, se odvíjí naše zdraví, národní hospodářství i stav planety. Současná produkce jídla i podoba stravování však v globálním měřítku nesvědčí nikomu. Statistiky mluví o rostoucí míře civilizačních chorob, státy přestávají být soběstačné a v budoucnu mají přibýt ještě další miliardy hladových krků, které má planeta uživit. Jídlo je tak nenápadným středobodem mnoha globálních problémů a mělo by k sobě vázat politickou, společenskou i filozofickou pozornost. Carolyn Steelová proto zpovídá farmáře, polemizuje s filozofy, navštěvuje architekty nebo čte literární klasiky a ve své odvážné knize Sitopie dopřává jídlu důležitost, jaká mu náleží. Nejen dnes, ale hlavně v budoucnu.

This brilliantly original and accessible guide explores how Valhalla and its Valkyries have inspired our cultural landscape, from Wagner to the Marvel Universe. Carolyne Larrington’s elegantly written retellings capture the beauty of the original myths, while also delving deeper into the history of their meanings, offering the reader an intelligent and up-to-date take on these powerful stories.A ruggedly handsome blond man swings his huge hammer. Gaunt-faced figures with icicle crowns and frost-rimmed cheekbones march from the north through an endless winter. These strange supernatural figures might sound familiar—and also like creatures of myth and legend. Yet they haven’t stepped straight off the vellum of ancient manuscripts. Rather, these compelling characters are contemporary reimaginings of mythic figures from Old Norse mythology. All speak to our contemporary hopes and fears, bridging the gap between a vanished medieval past and a vibrant, living present. Larrington guides us on an enchanting journey through centuries of heroism, cruelty, and magic, while also exploring how these stories speak to the enduring human condition. This book is for anyone who wants a deeper understanding of Norse mythology and its cultural resonances through the centuries.

In a new revision with an expanded examination of opera as an institution in the twenty-first century this book explores the tensions that have sustained opera over 400 years: between words and music, character and singer, inattention and absorption. Abbate and Parker argue that, though the genre''s most popular and enduring works were almost all written in a distant European past, opera continues to transform the viewer with its enduring power.

For years, we’ve followed the traditional ketogenic diet formula: high fat, moderate protein, and very low carbs. And it worked—individuals saw the benefits of shifting from being sugar burners to fat burners. However, new science is showing that a low carbohydrate diet with higher protein ratios burns more stored fat and preserves and builds more lean muscle tissue. Recent research also suggests that a large percentage of adults are not consuming enough protein to maintain healthy bodies into middle age and beyond. And numerous experts agree that the RDA or protein for adults over age 50 is too low. High protein, low-carb diets are no longer the purview of body builders and athletes.

Beyond its housing estates and identikit high streets there is another Britain. This is the Britain of mist-drenched forests and unpredictable sea-frets: of wraith-like fog banks, druidic mistletoe and peculiar creatures that lurk, half-unseen, in the undergrowth, tantalising and teasing just at the periphery of human vision. How have the remarkably persistent folkloric traditions of the British Isles formed and been formed by the identities and psyches of those who inhabit them? In her sparkling new history, Carolyne Larrington explores the diverse ways in which a myriad of imaginary and fantastical beings has moulded the cultural history of the nation. Fairies, elves and goblins here tread purposefully, sometimes malignly, over an eerie, preternatural landscape that also conceals brownies, selkies, trows, knockers, boggarts, land-wights, Jack o''Lanterns, Barguests, the sinister Nuckleavee, or water-horse, and even Black Shuck: terrifying hell-hound of the Norfolk coast with eyes of burning coal.Focusing on liminal points where the boundaries between this world and that of the supernatural grow thin those marginal tide-banks, saltmarshes, floodplains, moors and rock-pools wherein mystery lies the author shows how mythologies of Mermen, Green men and Wild-men have helped and continue to help human beings deal with such ubiquitous concerns as love and ...

A funny, smart and delightfully original way to teach kids about units of measure.When Supersaurus claims to be the longest animal, Blue Whale begs to differ. The two animals debate who is longer until Inchworm (who happens to be exactly one inch long) enters the scene and offers to measure them both. The animals agree and decide the loser will treat the winner to lunch. Inchworm inches along the entire length of Blue Whale, who measures 1300 inches long. But the measuring took so long that Inchworm has no time to measure Supersaurus. Luckily, Centipede (who happens to be exactly one centimeter long) offers to measure all 3302 centimeters of Supersaurus. Great! Except centimeters are different units of measure from inches.

We Have To Leave The Earth is Carolyn Jess-Cooke’s third collection and features a tripart collection of poems on interlocking themes. The first third of the book is ‘Songs for the Arctic’ and looks closely at the ice-landscapes being eroded by climate change. Their beauty contains a dark premonition of the future of our planet once these grand seas of ice melt. The poems are written in short, declarative lines, their rhythms echo Norse myth and arrive in single syllables.The second section deals with more personal themes, a daughter who is diagnosed with Autism and whose future is therefore also in peril, yet who seemingly transcends the flat terms of a diagnosis and displays more imagination than authorities expect, inventing a ‘craze’ amongst her friends for an imaginary fish-friend. Such glimmerings of essential hope appear often in this passionately serious, darkly glittering collection. The third part of the book is a nine-poem series that is a portrait of a Victorian activist, Josephine Butler, who, after the death of a daughter, is galvanised to campaign for public causes and to have a brutal law, that allowed intimate examination of girls and women who were suspected of venereal disease, struck from the ...

Carolyn L. Baker grew up in Southern California during segregation and came of age in the counter-cultural climate of the 1960s. Many years later, when Baker was in her mid-sixties, she first learned of the murder of Emmett Till, sparking an investigation of her own position as a white woman in the midst of a world of racial trauma. An Unintentional Accomplice follows Baker’s awakening to the realities of her own white privilege, confronting white guilt, navigating aspects of white identity, and searching out ways to be an ally who both acknowledges her own position and seeks to provide active support for those who live with a different set of circumstances. We find Baker facing the painful reality that, no matter how unintentional, she plays a role within a system that continues to inflict racial harm. She comes to realize that, by not actively opposing discrimination, as a white person, she acts as an accomplice.  An Unintentional Accomplice offers a non-judgmental personal narrative that invites readers to explore the complexities of race in America and how to navigate the guilt that can arise in the face of these realities.
