Grace O'Leary has a secret. She keeps it locked away and experience has taught her to guard it carefully by avoiding long-term relationships. She keeps men at a distance, never letting anyone too close, not even when they're charming and handsome and everything she's ever wanted. Like Joe Mura. Joe's parents had a disastrous marriage, leading him to think of "commitment" as a four-letter-word. But then he meets Grace. She's smart, witty, sassy and beautiful, and he has never been drawn to anyone like he is drawn to her. Suddenly playing the field doesn't seem so appealing to Joe. But there's one problem: Grace has made it clear she's not interested in a serious relationship. Over more than a year and across three states, the two find themselves repeatedly in each other's orbit and eventually entangled in a passionate affair. Everything seems great until Grace's secret is revealed. Can Joe break down the walls Grace has put up around herself? Or will her secret create a barrier that is too much for their love to overcome?

When Angelina discovers what has gone unspoken in her parents' and grandparents' lives, she is forced to re-evaluate her entire upbringing.Angelina's childhood in the far North Queensland cane fields is full of adventure. But it is also turbulent. Her beloved grandfather was an ardent fascist. Her father and grandfather struggle with the ferocious undercurrents of an unspoken past. Her mother, as the dutiful Italian wife, cannot speak about how she feels. Instead, she teaches her young daughter a revolutionary song that she knows will irritate her father-in-law.As an adult, Angelina must deal with different sets of preconceived notions about who she should be and what she should do as well as the inherited trauma of the second generation. She enters corporate Australia at a time when women's voices were only starting to be heard. Often, she is the only woman in the room and the only person with Italian heritage. Choosing between what is expected of her as a woman and what she feels she must do will have consequences.Through the telling of her own story, Angelina reconstructs her family's diaspora story from World War II Italy to the cane fields at a time when Australia's White Australia Policy was still in place. Their fractured history takes her to Mussolini's rise to power, German occupied Crete, the Gustav line in southern Abruzzo and Adelaide's Loveday internment camp.After years of conforming to what she thought it meant to be 'Australian', she realises that her identity as a second-generation immigrant woman, one of Le Seconde, is alot more complex.

Dance Your Style: Cree Pedagogy examines the intrinsic value of First Nations perspectives, languages, and knowledges without the framing of Indigenization, decolonization, incorporation, or adaptation. Organized into three parts, this title focuses on the First Nations pedagogy on its own terms: a pedagogy rooted in land, language, culture, community, and Elder knowledge.This text opens with foundational principles such as exploring the history, theory, analysis, and implementation of First Nations pedagogy, and the introduction to core concepts of language at the heart methodology and practice, teaching as a gift, and the passing of knowledge. Part two focuses on askiy kiskinohmakewina: Earth Teachings; reflecting on how the land teaches us, what we learn from connecting to the land, and the philosophy of land-based education. Part three features waseyaw, which means the elements of nature shine a light on the path forward. It refl ects on the knowledge of Elders and knowledge keepers, presents insights from Elders on Culture Camps, and maskikiw mahtahitowin, medicine thinking.With contributions from leading Indigenous Studies scholars, Elders, and community leaders in Canada, Dance Your Style is a powerful and essential text for college and university students in Indigenous Studies and Education courses that promotes thoughtful interactions with the text through practical exercises and thought-provoking discussion questions.
'Today, we colored men and women, everywhere - are up against it...In the South, they make it as impossible as they can for us to get educated. In the North, they make a pretence of liberality; they give us the ballot and a good education, and then snuff us out. Each year, the problem just to live, gets more difficult to solve.'The first play by an African American woman ever produced professionally. The European premiere – and the world's first production for nearly 100 years – of Rachel is directed by exciting young director Ola Ince, as part of Black History Month.Rachel is a young, educated, middle-class woman. But she is born into an African-American family in the early 20th century – a world in which ignorance and violence prevail. While her family and neighbours find different ways to survive, Rachel's dreams of getting married and becoming a mother collide with the tragic events of her family’s past as she confronts the harsh reality of a racist world.Written exactly midway between the American Civil War and the end of slavery, and the explosion of Civil Rights in the 1960s, this hauntingly beautiful and profoundly shocking play still asks urgent questions for today.

Onze petites histoires rotiques et sensuelles entre filles....
In Enchanted Dulcinea, this English translation of the novel by Mexican author Angelina Muñiz-Huberman, Dulcinea travels in a car writing novels in her mind about several Dulcineas: a medieval princess on a quest, a nineteenth-century lady-in-waiting in Mexico, and a twentieth-century young woman who was sent to Russia as a girl to escape the Spanish Civil War and later journeys to Mexico to reunite with her parents. Unsure of her identity, Dulcinea remembers, debates, and records memories of her exile. As she circles Mexico City, she examines the role of memory, speech, and writing through her fragmented narrative voice. Dulcinea explores her place in the world through storytelling, blurring the line between reality and imagination. This novel pairs a lyrical and contemplative style with experimental writing to present common themes of identity formation and exile in a unique form. Dulcinea’s quest is also one of spiritual connection with apocalyptic and mystical overtones. With allusions to both Christian and Jewish mystical traditions, this novel reveals a crypto-Jewish presence typical of Muñiz-Huberman’s writing, forming part of a Sephardic literary tradition. This edition includes an introduction and annotations by the translator, Rebecca Marquis.
