2021 Bram Stoker Awards(R) Nominee for Superior Achievement in Non-Fiction
From the short story «The Lottery» to the masterworks The Haunting of Hill House and We Have Always Lived in the Castle, Shirley Jackson’s popular, often bestselling works experimented with popular generic forms (melodrama, folktale, horror, the Gothic, and the Weird) to create a uniquely apocalyptic vision of America and its contradictions.
With a Foreword by award-winning Jackson biographer Ruth Franklin, this collection features comprehensive critical engagement with Jackson’s works, including those that have received less scholarly attention. Among these are the novels The Road Through the Wall, The Bird’s Nest, and Hangsaman, as well as Jackson’s historical study, The Witchcraft of Salem Village. Also included are essays on Jackson’s darkly humorous collections Life Among the Savages and Raising Demons, on Stephen King’s «literary friendship» with Jackson, on the little-known film adaptations Lizzie (1957) and Hossz? Alkony (Long Twilight) (1997), and the first-ever extended analysis devoted to Jackson’s unpublished satirical cartoon sketches.
The collection’s five sections focus on Jackson’s style, key themes, and influence; her politics and poetics of space; her treatment of the «monstrous» mother and monstrousness of motherhood; her representations of outsiders and minorities; and moving-image adaptations of her work.

Описание: Focusing on the body as a visual and discursive platform across public space, this book explores marginalization as a sociocultural practice and hegemonic schema. It centers upon physical contexts, discursive spaces, and philosophical arenas to deconstruct seemingly intrinsic connections between body and behavior, whiteness, and normativity.

Описание:
An Easter heart is not a heart that busies oneself with bunnies and baskets. Rather an Easter heart is a heart that believes, a heart that believes in Jesus. An Easter heart is humble, desperate, suffering, waiting, worshipful and victorious. Most of all, an Easter heart is all these things with Jesus, because of Jesus and for Jesus.
As the lenten season unfolds, I dream that this devotional will be a spot of joy and inspiration to you. Travel with me to Israel, and discover the glory of historical truth, and join me in learning from the women who were with Jesus during his final days and hours. You can read through this devotional a week at a time, saving the final chapter for Easter, or travel at your own pace. Maybe you gather friends to take this journey with you, discussing the scriptures and questions together for richer study. There are no rules. It's your journey to savor.
Each chapter begins with a quick sentence prayer in the hopes of grounding your spirit before you dig into the content. The chapters end with practical steps for application that first include a verse from scripture for memorization, and I encourage you to pray each scripture over your own life. The Words Worth Repeating sections provide statements and themes that are easy to remember. The ask and apply provides journal prompts or discussion points for you to engage in your time with God or with friends. The prayers at the end of each chapter are prayers that I've prayed over my own life, and I pray them also for you. Finally, each chapter closes with a favorite holiday recipe that I've enjoyed with my own family, providing your family with a complete Easter feast.
My dream is that this devotional will be a spot of joy and inspiration to you in the days leading up to Easter. I hope that you will take a little time each day or week to read a chapter, and then spend some time in your journal reflecting, praying and applying the truths that you have learned. Perhaps you want to gather one, two or more best girlfriends to read and reflect together. Everything is better in community.
The recipes are for you to savor but also an exercise in singing to the Lord in the kitchen while planning to celebrate Him with family and friends. After such a long season of isolation, Spring will be here again. Buy some flowers, set a pretty table, bake a cake and prepare a meal for those you love. In the Bible they fasted and feasted. Perhaps you will fast in some fashion for the 40 days of Lent to settle your heart, your Easter believing heart, and then enjoy the most special holiday by going all out in honor of the cross and resurrection.
Finally, this devotional was never intended for simple enjoyment. While I hope you do enjoy reading through it, my prayer is that it inspires you into a richer and deeper faith and a greater experience of Jesus. Each chapter incorporates a variety of action steps for you to take in the hopes that your Easter heart will expand, soften and grow. Invite others to join you, and together experience the fullness of a life alongside Jesus, our living hope.
Through this 6-chapter devotional, may Jesus come alive as you lean into His living hope. I pray that you discover our resurrected Messiah through this journey. There is so much hope in an Easter heart. Do you believe?

Описание: This is a story written from my journals. From immigrating as a four-year-old and trying to fit into a different culture to turning away from God in my teens. From a violent marriage doomed to fail and the death of my son, with the repercussions that followed. And yet, also between the lines, there is the joy and reverence for life itself. Making a lot of mistakes through life, I have learned not to give myself over to another set of values, or to another human being. It took me a long time to find myself and to love the person I was meant to be. I still have a lot to learn, even now, about love and how we are to address love and forgiveness in our lives. My story is a testimony to "the old truths." To me, it is a reminder not to make the same mistakes. In the end, it turned out to be not only the story of the first forty years of my life, but my spiritual journey as well. There are still thirty years of untouched journals...

Описание: So much more than Atlanta's first Black first lady, Bunnie Jackson Ransom keeps it real while discussing her contributions to American society. From her humble beginnings in Louisburg, North Carolina; to her days as a Delta on the campus of North Carolina College (now North Carolina Central University); and on to her days as Atlanta's first lady and pioneer in public relations, Jackson Ransom's details a life well-lived-a nuanced and interesting autobiography that expounds upon the pride and pitfalls of this Black woman pursuing the American dream. Deciding on the name, "Memoirs of a Life Well Lived," for this book was harder than writing the story. My family, friends and I finally settled on this title "Memoirs of a Life Well Lived," because I am most grateful for the amazing, and wonderful life which I was blessed to live. It was a "bucket list" of great experiences - traveling around the world, meeting people in high and low places, making friends, and trying not to make enemies, I had a ball. I lived my life with gusto. I tried to be a good wife and mother; but I am afraid that I was a bit selfish from time to time. I pray that my children will forgive me for not being around to do some of the motherly things some time; but I always tried to make up for my absences. Thank God for my wonderful and dedicated mother, Elizabeth, who eventually came to live in our home in Atlanta after my father passed on to his rewards in glory. I remain just a Black woman from SWATS - South West Atlanta Too Strong, with lots of memories and stories to brag about.
