Arthur Eedle has used the dialogue between these two men as the vehicle to focus attention on the evils of Abortion, and asks whether it is now time for a radical change before the days of God's Judgments arrive on a nation saturated in self-interests, and expediency, where women use abortion for their own convenience, without a thought for what they are doing to the life-form growing within their bodies.
In the third and exciting final installment of the Rachel & Eden trilogy, Ro suddenly finds herself under the microscope of two Seattle forensics investigators and Eden reaches out to a beloved recording artist as a way to pay tribute to the memory of her son.

Forgotten Broadway: The Selected Plays of Rachel Crothers

This collection brings Crothers’s best plays back into the public eye, outside of archives, to prove their continued relevance to life in the 21st century. The issues raised in plays such as Susan and God (1937), Mary the Third (1923), and A Man’s World (1910) concern career versus motherhood/parenthood, marriage, the double standard, generational divisions providing representations that audiences today understand and appreciate. Rachel Crothers was considered in her own time to be “the most famous woman playwright in America” (Charles E. Barnum, Sunday Morning Star). At her peak, 26 of her plays graced Broadway and touring stages, on par with Eugene O’Neill’s record, and Hollywood adapted more than half of those for the silver screen, making her one of the most prominent playwrights of the early 20th century. Forgotten Broadway is the first edited collection of plays by Crothers, demonstrating her impressive accomplishments as a writer-director during one of the most important periods of Broadway history. Known by her contemporaries as an "all-around woman of the theatre" due to her double duty as a writer and practitioner, despite all her successes, her plays have fallen out of print and are rarely produced in any theatrical setting.

The mid-twentieth-century woman was stereotypically seen as a housewife and mother, who shopped. But whether as purchaser, parent or professional, women's defining identities have been transformed, with a loosening of seemingly stone-set gender divisions and a feminist emphasis on expanding choices and different stories. Looking especially at consumer culture and parenthood, this book delves into some of the mutations involved. Here are marketing manuals and newspaper stories, as well as novels and tragedies, from Austen to Aeschylus. Unexpected Items is in part a plea for the uses and pleasures of critical reading of all kinds of text as a historical method, showing how meanings move on in the light of new contexts and questions, and also how looking close up at the way the words work can itself be a source of new thinking. The woman, the mother, the consumer, the parent all human characters clash and change, and so do their likely stories.

"I am not going to apologize for speaking the name of Jesus . . . If I have to sacrifice everything . . . I will." –Rachel ScottThe Columbine tragedy in April 1999 pierced the heart of our country. We later learned that the teenage killers specifically targeted Rachel Scott and mocked her Christian faith on their chilling, homemade videotapes. Rachel Scott died for her faith. Now her parents talk about Rachel's life and how they have found meaning in their daughter's martyrdom in the aftermath of the school shooting. Rachel's Tears comes from a heartfelt need to celebrate this young girl's life, to work through the grief and the questions of a nation, and to comfort those who have been touched by violence in our schools today. Using excerpts and drawings from Rachel's own journals, her parents offer a spiritual perspective on the Columbine tragedy and provide a vision of hope for preventing youth violence across the nation.Meets national education standards.
Rachel is a young teacher of fine arts. Kaye is a brilliant painter. Rachel is dull, plain and overweight. Kaye is vibrant and beautiful. Rachel becomes obsessed with Kaye and will do anything - anything at all - to satisfy her obsession. Rachel is soon spinning out of control ...In this tribute to and subversion of lesbian and feminist erotic fiction, the dynamics of dominance and submission become increasingly problematic. At last - the erotic classic that was effectively banned in Australia is now in print.
Rachel's Redemption is a love story/mystery, the essence of the narrative distilled in the life of a young South Korean woman whose marriage to an American military man leads to a most horrendous miscarriage of justice. The reader may be challenged to a closer look at views too long blindly accepted, particularly concerning the death penalty. Preview readers report inability to put the book aside, it is so filled with surprises and mini-stories of the diverse characters involved. Tender love stories and the revelation of unexpected events intertwine with the main story line about Rachel, providing incentive for non-stop page-turning and over-whelming emotional response. Rachel's story should be difficult to soon forget.
