What do you do when one day, a stroke turns your entire world upside-down?
On a beautiful fall day in 2007, a major stroke slices through the lives of husband and wife Judy Friesem and Kim Bush, leaving Kim partially paralyzed. The blog that Judy faithfully writes throughout the four years before Kim's death beautifully chronicles the troughs and crests of their new life and keeps them connected to their community.
This is a story about discovery, courage, and trust. Instead of the stroke dividing them, it summons Kim and Judy to their highest selves. Together, as they navigate aging alongside caregiving, their love opens a world of unparalleled abundance that touches everyone who enters. It is a story of finding the lotus in the muck.
With care, attention, and deep respect, Kim and Judy celebrate their triumphs and challenges every day, living simply and well with mindfulness, faith, humor, and grace. How do they do it? You may find yourself weeping and laughing aloud--and uncover a current of strength growing inside you as well.

Описание:
A sordid sex tape. A venture capital firm. A secret society of women. A Catholic nun. All have one connection in common: Miriam Cross.
Miriam Cross, author, feminist and philanthropist, disappears from her Philadelphia home. A year later, a lonely recluse named Emily Cray is brutally murdered in her bed in a small Pennsylvania town. The police discover that Emily Cray and Miriam Cross were one and the same, but if they know who killed Miriam, they're not sharing. Miriam's niece Lucinda wants answers. She turns to the one woman she knows she can trust--private investigator Delilah Percy Powers.
As Delilah and her team of female detectives--a militant homemaker, an ex-headmistress, and a former stripper--investigate Miriam's death, they uncover more questions than solutions. Why had the famous author been living under a new identity? Who were the women seen coming out of Emily Cray's home at all hours of the night? Did Miriam have a mysterious lover? What was Miriam's allegiance to an international secret society of high-powered women? What was the famous author doing with a New York venture capital firm?
As Delilah and her staff get closer to the truth, they become submerged in a criminal underworld of unfathomable cruelty and greed with implications that go far beyond the gruesome death of one woman or the boundaries of one country. Eventually Miriam's fight for justice becomes Delilah's own...until Delilah's obsession with finding the truth proves just as deadly.
Praise for A DARK HOMAGE:
"A Dark Homage is masterful. Wendy Tyson's novel is more than a compelling mystery, it's a detailed, honest examination of tough-as-nails women who refuse to be intimidated, no matter how dark the story turns. Tyson skillfully turns from humor to tension in the span of a single sentence, and readers will be left wanting to know what happens next with Delilah and her team. A must read." --E.A. Aymar, author of The Unrepentant
(Previously published as The Seduction of Miriam Cross.)
Описание: The English dramatists Francis Beaumont and John Fletcher, collaborated in their writing during the reign of James I of England (James VI of Scotland, 1567-1625; in England he reigned from 1603).Beaumont & Fletcher began to collaborate as writers soon after they met. After notable failures of their solo works their first joint effort, Philaster, was a success and tragicomedy was the genre they explored and built upon. There would be many further successes to follow. There is an account that at the time the two men shared everything. They lived together in a house on the Bankside in Southwark, "they also lived together in Bankside, sharing clothes and having one wench in the house between them." Or as another account puts it "sharing everything in the closest intimacy." Whatever the truth of this they were now recognised as perhaps the best writing team of their generation, so much so, that their joint names was applied to all the works in which either, or both, had a pen including those with Philip Massinger, James Shirley and Nathan Field.The first Beaumont and Fletcher folio of 1647 contained 35 plays; 53 plays were included in the second folio in 1679. Other works bring the total plays in the canon to about 55. However there appears here to have been some duplicity on the account of the publishers who seemed to attribute so many to the team. It is now thought that the work between solely by Beaumont and Fletcher amounts to approximately 15 plays, though of course further works by them were re-worked by others and the originals lost. After Beaumont's early death in 1616 Fletcher continued to write and, at his height was, by many standards, the equal of Shakespeare in popularity until his own death in 1625.

Описание: Homage to Catalonia is both a memoir of Orwell's experience at the front in the Spanish Civil War.Fighting against the Fascists, he described in painfully vivid and occasionally comic detail life in the trenches-with a "democratic army" composed of men with no ranks, no titles, and often no weapons-and his near fatal wounding.
American painter Lara Nickel's life-size installation in homage to Jannis Kounellis' Untitled (12 Horses), one of Arte Povera's most iconic artworks
The horse has been represented in the history of art by almost every culture in every time period. In 1969, Jannis Kounellis (1936-2017) (a member of the Italian art movement Arte Povera) brought 12 living horses inside a gallery in Rome, creating areinterpreted image of the horse in an art context. Lara Nickel's homage is comprised of 12 life-size, realistic paintings of horses, positioned on the ground and installed perpendicularly to the wall. Presented in this non-traditional way, the images of horses appear to be standing in the room, making the architecture itself the setting of the paintings. Nickel's 12 Horses - Homage to Jannis Kounellis uses painting as a sculptural intervention, inviting the audience to physically engage with the artwork. Using Kounellis' original piece as an art historical reference, Nickel's paintings are not only portraits of horses but painting-as-illusion, painting-as-object, and painting-as-situation.
