Описание: After immigrating from Colombia to the United States as a young child followed by a devastating loss and financial hardship, Luz Arteaga-Pray overcame these struggles and ultimately achieved the American dream. She was blessed with a jaw-droppingly handsome, hardworking husband, four beautiful children, a gorgeous countryside home on the familys farmland and a thriving business. What more could a girl ask for? In her memoir, Morphing in Stillness, Arteaga-Pray reflects on her abundant life and evolution of self-discovery that led her to surrender it all. Through raw emotion, honesty and anecdotal humor, Arteaga-Pray takes an intimate look at her 30-year relationship with her husband and her loss of self within the union.

By taking the road less traveled, she embarks on a journey that ultimately leads to her intended destination - a life filled with love, joy and purpose.

Описание: Unraveling the stereotype that men’s friendships are unemotional and shallow, this book provides the first detailed account of the bromance that exists among young men. Drawing on one year of ethnography and 20 in-depth interviews among a university sport team, the authors show that these men reject traditional masculine boundaries, instead prioritizing an emotional and tactile form of friendship. Chapters detail the cultural shift in society’s views on bromances, showing that bromances exists as an elevated, more emotional and intimate form of friendship, existing as a further positive consequence of decreasing cultural homophobia. By focusing on sport—which has traditionally been seen as a homophobic environment with toxic constructions of manhood—the authors show that even in the most traditionally masculine of settings, young men are rethinking what male friendship looks like, what it means to be a man, and the positive impact this can have on their mental health. This book will be relevant to a number of audiences including scholars and students in masculinity studies, queer studies, and friendship studies; LGBTQ+ activists and allies with interest in straight men’s friendships and sports cultures; and men’s mental health advocates.
How Much Big Is the Sky is a mother's searingly melodic and eloquent love song to her teenage son, Ryan, following his sudden death resulting from a car crash. Sherry Chapman captures the intimacy and immediacy of her experience with a rare combination of profound tenderness, literary skill, and raw candor. This stunning account of love and loss is structured in five parts resembling the various stages of grief. From the sudden blow of an early morning phone call to a mother's frantic advocacy to her final reflections on what remains, this book is unforgettable.

"After my infant twins died, I couldn't find anything on the shelves at the bookstore that was actually honest."
I found books about grief, sure. Books written by psychologists on the stages of grief and books that assured me that I would find my answers in prayer. This isn't meant to replace those. Those books are necessary, but in the raw, emotional weeks and months after losing my twins, what I wanted to know more than anything was that I was not crazy.
Christy, a fourth-grade teacher, and her husband, Brian, are raising two adorable children ages 4 and 7 in Onalaska, WI. But Christy has two other children--twins--who died shortly after being born at 21 weeks.
Christy's captivating memoir about her hopes, her dreams, her loss, her grief, and ultimately, her healing, is a poignantly powerful and brutally honest account of what happens when tragedy hits. We never think it's going to happen to us. We never think it will happen today. But it does, and it happened to Christy. In an effort to find solace, Christy tried Googling, "What do I do when my baby dies?" Unfortunately, there just aren't any good resources out there--at least not any that are truly honest, not sugar-coated with clich s. "Almost a Mother" is Christy's way of reaching those out to those who have experienced a horrible loss of any kind, of any magnitude, in the hope of building a community of support and love.
And, in her words, "I just wanted to know that I wasn't crazy because I wanted to punch the pregnant lady at Target in the face."
