Diary of an Uncertain Psychic - Deena I.J. Newman

In Diary of an Uncertain Psychic, artist-anthropologist Deena I.J. Newman explores the life and lessons of Elizabeth, a California psychic and radio talk show host. Through vivid graphic narrative, this detailed account tells a story about images through images. Elizabeth experienced a continuous flow of inner images, In Western culture, the phenomenon of spontaneous inner imagery is often considered unusual or abnormal. Newman challenges this perspective by suggesting that many people experience spontaneous visual, auditory, and kinesthetic imagery and contends that such imagery may be a potential key to understanding psychic and mental processes. These images are interpreted differently across different cultures – as spiritual messages, omens, sources of scientific and artistic inspiration, psychological insights, symptoms of mental illness, or simply nonsensical productions of the mind. In visualizing these images on the page, this book invites readers to delve deeper into the complexities of inner imagery – both within psychics and within themselves. This graphic work captures the film-like inner images commonly experienced yet frequently overlooked, revealing the uncertainty involved in translating between images and words. Newman reflexively explores Elizabeth's and her own experiences to understand this process of translation.

An Earthquake is A Shaking of the Surface of the Earth - Anna Moschovakis

In An Earthquake Is a Shaking of the Surface of the Earth, an unnamed narrator struggles to regain the ability to walk after a sudden seismic event has rendered unpredictable shifts and undulations in the ground. Convinced of a need to find and kill her younger housemate, Tala, who has disappeared, the narrator struggles physically and psychically to contend with her homicidal task in the wake of failure as a Method actor. The narrator travels back in time and out into a dust-covered, shadowy city, where she is targeted by charismatic ''healing'' ideologues with uncertain motives. Torn between a paranoid suspicion of internalized, toxic language, and a desperate attempt to find stability and feel something like whole, she is forced to question familiar figurations of light, shadow, authenticity, and voice, taking tentative steps toward a new understanding of self and world.

Buses in the Border Towns of London Country 1969-2019 (South of the Thames) - Malcolm Batten

London Transport was created in 1933 with monopoly powers. Not only did it have exclusive rights to run bus (and tram and trolleybus) services in the Greater London area, it also ran services in a Country Area all around London. Green Line express services linked the country towns to London and in most cases across to other country towns the other side of the metropolis. This country area extended north as far as Hitchin, east to Brentwood, south to Crawley and west to Windsor.But what of the towns at the edge of the country area? Here the green London Transport buses would meet the bus companies whose operations extended across the rest of the counties of Berkshire, Surrey, Kent etc. In some cases the town was at a node where more than one company worked in. Elsewhere, such as at Guildford there were local independent operators who had a share in the town services.It would all change from 1970 when the London Transport Country Area was transferred to the National Bus Company to form a new company named London Country Bus Services. This would later be split into four separate companies. Deregulation in 1985 and privatisation in the 1990s led ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Where's the Elephant? - Barroux

A visionary picture book from the genius of Barroux, which pairs a beautiful wordless storytelling experience with a powerful message.What starts as a game of jungle hide-and-seek quickly turns into something more significant as Barroux’s illustrations convey the consequences of deforestation upon the animal kingdom.Barroux adopts the familiar ‘Where’s Wally?’ search-and-find format to introduce young readers to environmental issues, but as the forest begins to disappear, elephant becomes easier to spot. Where’s the Elephant? is a deeply poignant read remniscent of Benji Davies’s The Storm Whale and is devastating in its simplicity. Children will be captivated by Barroux’s unique illustration style and the book is designed to encourage parent and child discussion. Recommended by Mumsnet, The Guardian and The Sunday Times. Also longlisted for the Kate Greenaway Award 2016 and Highly Commended Best Children''s Picture Book in the Junior Design Awards (2015).Look out for Barroux’s latest masterpiece, Where’s the Starfish?Barroux''s books include Uncle John and the Giant Cherry Tree, which won him the 2005 Enfantaisie Award, and the extraordinary Line of Fire, Diary of An Unknown Soldier which has received widespread critical acclaim.
