My Name Is Stella, and I Am Normal

Is Alcoholism a disease? Are alcoholics really "powerless"? Or is the Cult of 12 Steps and the sham of anonymity just conveniently considered the one and only politically correct solution in an ongoing nightmare of shame? And what of Tough Love, with its manipulative strategy of "detachment", widely promoted by the sister cult of AlAnon? For Stella, the Shame Game begins at age 12, labeled as "mentally ill". And stigma follows her into adulthood, when she declares "I am Stella, an Alcoholic". This is a true account of a life almost destroyed by labels. Stella's saga unravels as she explores her past during a physical recovery from a brutal attack and almost murdered. Heartlessly abandoned by her family in the name of Tough Love, Stella makes a break from AA, after 10 years of almost religious adherence, leaving behind the labels and detaching from all those who had created this Shame Game. Find out how Stella finally solves the curse of her addictive behavior in this true story.

The Big Lead: A Stella Reynolds Cozy Mystery
Stella Reynolds is new to the job, new to the state, and new to making mistakes in front of thousands of people, but that's exactly what she signs up for when she takes a reporting job in Bozeman, Montana. Being on live TV in a small town has never been so funny, until Stella covers the town's first murders in years. When the prime suspect's girlfriend enlists Stella to help clear his name, she uncovers another shocking crime that could expose a handful of powerful insiders. Who is honest, who can't be trusted, and who committed the murders? Stella is on a tight deadline to find out. Can she free an innocent man, or will the real culprit get away with murder?
The Big Weekend: A Stella Reynolds Mystery
You can run. You can hide. Or you can get highlights. Columbus police make a quick arrest in a murder, but when a tip comes in from someone who knows more about the case than detectives, it's clear to TV reporter Stella Reynolds that the woman behind bars didn't pull the trigger. With lowlifes stealing the headlines, why is Stella's boss only concerned with her hair? He insists a makeover will help her career, but she knows that a visit to the salon will only get in the way of solving the murder. Or will it? With the real suspect determined to stay hidden, maybe a makeover contest is the perfect cover for catching a killer. Vicious lies. Unyielding deadlines. And a killer makeover.
Journal to Stella

Jonathan Swift

Cambridge University Press

pokkari
The Journal to Stella, Jonathan Swift's letters to Esther Johnson, or 'Stella', and Rebecca Dingley, written between September 1710 and June 1713, offers an extraordinary commentary on Swift's experiences in London during the most politically active and exciting years of his career and evidence of his evolving relationship with the two women. This edition seeks for the first time both to situate the letters alongside Swift's other works and to place them within their original political, historical and cultural contexts. It brings together a combination of printed work and manuscript to present the most complete and accessible text possible, enhanced by the use of the latest digital image analysis techniques to reinstate previously indecipherable material. In addition to a new critical introduction and appendices, there is also a biographical appendix derived from recently available resources.

La Casa della Stella Nebbiosa

Dev'essere stato il nome che mi ha fatto prendere quella casetta in cima alla collina. Era perlopi vista, ma il titolo - integrato dall'affitto molto basso - suggeriva il primo verso di una bellissima poesia. Nessuno sa chi abbia iniziato l'usanza o quando, ma per anni sconosciuti una luce notturna era stata tenuta accesa in una vecchia lanterna di bronzo malandata che oscillava proprio sopra la mia porta di casa. Nelle nebbie del primo mattino il basso edificio bianco sembrava fatto di sogni; ma la minuscola fiamma, scivolando oltre le basse grondaie ricurve, brillava lontano in mare e alla sua luce i marinai giapponesi, aggirando la punta rocciosa della Lingua dei Draghi nelle loro vecchie giunche, si diressero verso casa e riposo. Per loro era un faro di benvenuto. Hanno chiamato il posto "La casa della stella nebbiosa". In esso per trent'anni ho faticato, insegnato e sognato. Da esso ho visto passare le navi di potenti nazioni, alcune in missione di pace; alcuni per cambiare la mappa del mondo. Attraverso le sue finestre ho visto la gloria di Dio nei tramonti e la tenerezza del Suo amore nelle albe. Le colline rosa della primavera e il cremisi dell'autunno sono venute e se ne sono andate, e attraverso i portali scolpiti che segnano l'ingresso a casa mia hanno vagato i relitti e le acque del mondo. Sono venuti per un riparo, per il cibo, per curiosit e talvolta perch devono farlo, finch non ho guadagnato il mio titolo di matrigna chiara per met dei randagi e dei randagi d'Oriente. Una volta era un generale cinese, in cerca di sicurezza da una folla. Quindi era un russo dall'aspetto feroce sospettato come spia e, quando perquisito, si scoperto che era una ragazza spaventata, che cercava il suo amore tra i prigionieri di guerra. Gli alti, i bassi, i miti e gli impertinenti, i bambini smarriti, i pellegrini che chiedono l'elemosina e i gatti senza coda - tutti prima o poi hanno trovato la loro strada attraverso i miei cancelli e sono usciti di nuovo, toccando a malapena i margini esterni della mia vita domestica. Ma le cose non hanno mai cominciato ad accadermi davvero, voglio dire cose che contavano davvero, fino all'arrivo di Jane Grey. Dopodich sembrava che non si sarebbero mai fermati.
