May You Shine offers spiritual inspiration, comfort in dark times, and support for your wounded soul. Author Tess Hayes shows us all that we are wildly capable of letting our light shine.
A comedic stage play by Steven Hayet.For Maya Kaplan, Christmas is her life...and she hates every minute of it.As acting manager of the year-round Christmas store Yuletide Cheer, a job she reluctantly inherited after the owner (her mom) retired, Maya is force-fed jolly, subjected to hearing the same holiday songs on loop day after day after day. As a Jewish woman, she never fully understood the Christmas obsession, especially one that requires a 365-day store for a one day holiday (or twelve days if you go by the song.) She had dreams of her own, but as the single childless sibling, the responsibilities of the family business fell to her. Motherly guilt is a powerful force. Fortunately, Maya's nightmare will be coming to an end in a few months as the store will finally shutter its doors to become a Starbucks. Or will it?Enter Hugo McGee, a longtime customer devastated to learn of the store's closing. Raised by a single mom, the store holds a special place in his heart. Refusing to allow a local intuition to disappear, Hugo makes it his mission to raise the money and keep Yuletide Cheer open, despite Maya's objections. Will he succeed in saving Christmas? Or will Maya finally have the opportunity to live the life she's wanted? Or maybe...the two aren't so different?Hugo Saves Christmas...in May is a heartfelt comedy about two people from different backgrounds, coming together and connecting through family, nostalgia, and the idea of Christmas.

An adventurous single woman who knew how to cook, twenty-three-year-old May Arkwright moved — alone — to the remote valleys of northern Idaho in 1883. She opened a one-table restaurant for the silver prospectors near Wallace, serving her homemade berry pies and hot dishes. Before long, she was a well-known part of the fledgling mining district.May, a large, outspoken woman who favored low-cut, brightly colored dresses, scandalized the "proper" women of town. But her self-confidence and ease with people helped her make important friends among the miners, merchants, and railroad men who ate at her table. After she met and married local train engineer Al Hutton, the two invested in a mine upstream from Wallace. After several long years they struck it rich and moved to Spokane, where May spent the rest of her life working on philanthropic projects that still affect residents of the Pacific Northwest to this day. As related through the skilled storytelling of Mary Barmeyer O'Brien, this larger-than-life woman's story adds a compelling new element to the history of the West.

Poetry. Translated from the Czech by Marcela Sulak. Compared to Byron, Keats, Shelley, and Poe, called Lautreamont's "elder brother" by the Czech Surrealists, Karel Hynek Macha (1810-1836) was the greatest Czech Romantic poet, and arguably the most influential of any poet in the language. MAY, his epic masterpiece, was published in April 1836, just seven months before his death. Considered the "pearl" of Czech poetry, it is a tale of seduction, revenge, and patricide. A paean as well to his homeland, virtually every Czech student and adult can recite the first stanzas of the poem from memory, and new editions still regularly appear in Czech bookstores. Unlike many of his European peers, Macha's work has been largely ignored in English translation. The present volume provides the original text in parallel.
