A Scarlet Fever

One look across the dance floor. One sexy stranger invited home. One playful bite too many. It's just supposed to be a night out for a bit of fun. But one thing leads to another. And Mina Sun's life is changed forever. When Mina wakes up, all she wants is to get through the day - her uni classes and a shift at the tattoo shop - but she plagued by a wicked headache and unusual hungers. While she struggles to keep her life together, she realizes something is terribly wrong. It's only when she's cornered by a tenacious vampire that she comes face to face with just how wrong. Awakened to a world she never knew existed, she finds herself caught in the middle of an ancient battle. And both sides want a piece of her. As Mina struggles to adapt to life as a vampire herself, a new threat arises - part terrifying myth, part half-forgotten legend. An ancient creature that jeopardizes a precarious ceasefire between the warring vampire factions, and puts everything she loves - her city, her family, her friends - in danger. Can Mina protect them from the darkness that's descending, and can she save herself?

It was supposed to be one night to blow off steam. But one thing led to another. One look across the dance floor. One sexy stranger invited home. One playful bite too many. One night that changed Mina Sun's life. She wakes up to find she's a reluctant vampire caught in the middle of an ancient battle between opposing forces that both want a piece of her. As she struggles to adapt to life as one of the undead, and come to terms with her unnatural thirst and unexpected hungers, a new threat arises - part terrifying myth, part half-forgotten legend. This threat jeopardizes the precarious ceasefire between warring vampire factions, and puts everything she loves - her city, her family, her friends - in danger. Can Mina protect them from the darkness that's descending, and can she save herself?
A Violent Embrace

A Violent Embrace

Renée C. Hoogland

Dartmouth College Press
2014

Instead of asking questions about the symbolic meaning or underlying "truth" of a work of art, renée c. hoogland is concerned with the actual "work" that it does in the world (whether intentionally or not). Why do we find ourselves in tears in front of an abstract painting? Why do some cartoons of the prophet Muhammad generate worldwide political outrage? What, in other words, is the compelling force of visual images, even-or especially-if they are nonfigurative, repulsive, or downright "ugly"? Rather than describing, analyzing, and interpreting artworks, hoogland approaches art as an event that obtains on the level of actualization, presenting "retellings" of specific artistic events in the light of recent interventions in aesthetic theory, and proposing to conceive of the aesthetic encounter as a potentially disruptive, if not violent, force field with material, political, and practical consequences.

"Explorations of a Mind-Traveling Sociologist" is a book of thematically interconnected ethnographic essays by the internationally esteemed sociologist Renée C. Fox, who employs a participant observer outlook to provide unique insight on such enduring—and pressing—issues as the lived experiences of physicians and patients, including patients who are physically challenged, elderly, mortally ill or beyond the reach of medical care; the origins and consequences of epidemic outbreaks of old and new plague-like infectious diseases that occur and recur, despite the impressive advances of medicine; the concomitants and challenges of aging; the wellsprings, dynamics and significance of medical humanitarian action; engagement with a “beyond borders” world view; the occurrence of national and international events of major moral as well as political and legal import and repercussions; and the meaning and meaningfulness of teaching, exploring, questing and writing. Latently associated with these themes are the author’s social values and social conscience. Composing these essays from a participant observer outlook heightens and enriches the author’s observations over the course of her daily life, enabling her to engage in “mind travel” to places and people she has intimately known in the past and to places she has yearningly hoped to visit but never has.
