WINNER OF THE 2015 BRAM STOKER AWARD FOR SUPERIOR ACHIEVEMENT IN A NOVEL
A chilling thriller that brilliantly blends psychological suspense and supernatural horror, reminiscent of Stephen King's The Shining, Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House, and William Peter Blatty's The Exorcist.
The lives of the Barretts, a normal suburban New England family, are torn apart when fourteen-year-old Marjorie begins to display signs of acute schizophrenia.
To her parents' despair, the doctors are unable to stop Marjorie's descent into madness. As their stable home devolves into a house of horrors, they reluctantly turn to a local Catholic priest for help. Father Wanderly suggests an exorcism; he believes the vulnerable teenager is the victim of demonic possession. He also contacts a production company that is eager to document the Barretts' plight. With John, Marjorie's father, out of work for more than a year and the medical bills looming, the family agrees to be filmed, and soon find themselves the unwitting stars of The Possession, a hit reality television show. When events in the Barrett household explode in tragedy, the show and the shocking incidents it captures become the stuff of urban legend.
Fifteen years later, a bestselling writer interviews Marjorie's younger sister, Merry. As she recalls those long ago events that took place when she was just eight years old, long-buried secrets and painful memories that clash with what was broadcast on television begin to surface--and a mind-bending tale of psychological horror is unleashed, raising vexing questions about memory and reality, science and religion, and the very nature of evil.

Описание: From the brink of death to recovery through humor and inspiration A remarkably candid first person account of arriving at the brink of death, surgery, survival, and living with a colostomy, affectionately called, "Percy." Every year thousands of people the world over undergo colostomy surgery. In 2011 Jo-Ann L. Tremblay joined the ranks of ostomates, and now has a 2nd chance at life. A compelling tale that speaks to the human spirit within all of us, "Better WITH a Bag Than IN a Bag," makes us laugh and makes us cry, as it inspires everyone who wants to live life to the fullest, in spite of it all. REVIEWS: "Jo-Ann's book brings attention to a common but rarely talked about bowel disease- diverticulosis, describing her personal physical and emotional odyssey from illness to her new healthy normal. Even though the experience she talks about is her own, it could be anyone's journey in dealing with a serious health issue. Practical coping strategies are suggested throughout her book." -Andrea Manson, RN, BSN, ET, NCA (Enterostomal Nurse) "I'm a professional comedian and apparently this book contained and used humour to tell it's story. Ironically it was everything but the humour that held and kept my interest. It's the drama that got me... " "Jo-Ann not only does a meticulous job of keeping a record of her entire one year journey she passes on some vital information to anyone who might end up as an ostomate. Especially for those people who would rather read about on their own first before getting the courage to ask their doctors. I understand the need for the journey to be described in such detail--God knows in my case with Hep C and trying not to have to go through a liver transplant if there had been such a book available it would have been worth it's weight in gold... " "The triumph of the human spirit. That is one of the major reasons why this book should be read, have a place on your bookshelf, given to someone in need--It's the triumph of the human spirit. It's really too bad that there isn't a Jo-Ann L. Tremblay with a book for every malady out there." -Mike MacDonald, one of Canada's Premier Comedians "You can laugh at having an ostomy or you can cry. Sometimes we ostomates do both, and when we share the potty-humour of our experiences, it's what saves our sanity after almost losing our lives. Jo-Ann Tremblay's story about her journey back has made me laugh, has made me remember my own journey from the brink, and it inspires us all to continue taking those small steps forward." - Carol A. Stephen, Award Winning Poet

Описание: In Breathing Aesthetics Jean-Thomas Tremblay argues that difficult breathing indexes the uneven distribution of risk in a contemporary era marked by the increasing contamination, weaponization, and monetization of air. Tremblay shows how biopolitical and necropolitical forces tied to the continuation of extractive capitalism, imperialism, and structural racism are embodied and experienced through respiration. They identify responses to the crisis in breathing in aesthetic practices ranging from the film work of Cuban American artist Ana Mendieta to the disability diaries of Bob Flanagan, to the Black queer speculative fiction of Renee Gladman. In readings of these and other minoritarian works of experimental film, endurance performance, ecopoetics, and cinema-vérité, Tremblay contends that articulations of survival now depend on the management and dispersal of respiratory hazards. In so doing, they reveal how an aesthetic attention to breathing generates historically, culturally, and environmentally situated tactics and strategies for living under precarity.

Описание: What is the relationship between literature and the society in which it incubates? Are there common political, social, and economic factors that predominate during periods of heightened literary activity? New Brunswick at the Crossroads: Literary Ferment and Social Change in the East considers these questions and explores the relationships between periods of creative ferment in New Brunswick and the socio-cultural conditions of those times. The province's literature is ideally suited to such a study because of its bicultural character - in both English and French, periods of intense literary creativity occurred at different times and for different reasons. What emerges is a cultural geography in New Brunswick that has existed not in isolation from the rest of Canada but often at the creative forefront of imagined alternatives in identity and citizenship. At a time when cultural industries are threatened by forces that seek to negate difference and impose uniformity, New Brunswick at the Crossroads provides an understanding of the intersection of cultures and social economies, contributing to critical discussions about what constitutes ""the creative"" in Canadian society, especially in rural, non-central spaces like New Brunswick.
Описание: Another BAG Another DAY - Creating a new Lease on Life in a New WorldSequel to Better WITH a Bag Than IN a Bag, Another BAG Another DAY continues with the adventures of ostomate Jo-Ann L. Tremblay and Percy her life sustaining stoma. It was July 22, 2012, the day after the 1 year anniversary of her lifesaving surgery. Their 1st annual Celebration of Life Day together was now history. The candles have been blown out; the cupcakes devoured. Percy and Jo-Ann had thrown away their gem-studded ostomy bag. Time to move on - or so they thought, on the horizon there was another storm brewing.The full impact of the lingering damage from the original disease, the damage from the extensive surgery, and the emotional toll it takes to adapt and live with an altered body function was just beginning. Gun metal black, indigo and grey clouds of pain and doubt swirled and boiled inside of her. Jo-Ann's body and emotions seemed filled with unseen monsters, bewitching her with their seductive mystery, beckoning ever beckoning, her to jump. With all the power left in them, it was time for Jo-Ann and Percy to harness the power of the storm within.As they march to the beat of the recovery drum, Jo-Ann, Percy and an army made up of family, friends, caregivers and medical professionals, are on a healing journey filled with disaster and triumph. This is a true life tale of exploration of the human body and the adventure of the human spirit, that goes beyond survival to arrive at the gateway of a new world, a new life, a new normal.
