For better or worse, Elise and Cabot have a great deal in common. They seem to live on borrowed time as they share a decidedly blue past, one marked by violent deaths of their respective spouses.

The Pocket


Book Description

A New York Times Best Art Book of 2019 “A riveting book . . . few stones are left unturned.”—Roberta Smith’s “Top Art Books of 2019,” The New York Times This fascinating and enlightening study of the tie-on pocket combines materiality and gender to provide new insight into the social history of women’s everyday lives—from duchesses and country gentry to prostitutes and washerwomen—and to explore their consumption practices, sociability, mobility, privacy, and identity. A wealth of evidence reveals unexpected facets of the past, bringing women’s stories into intimate focus. “What particularly interests Burman and Fennetaux is the way in which women of all classes have historically used these tie-on pockets as a supplementary body part to help them negotiate their way through a world that was not built to suit them.”—Kathryn Hughes, The Guardian “A brilliant book.”—Ulinka Rublack, Times Literary Supplement

Diary of a Drug Addict


Book Description

I’m introducing a new genre by way of the Diary—Education Fiction. Drug Education runs all through the book. The purpose of the book is to educate. The more people who know about the world of drugs and drug addicts, the better—that is why the book is Education Fiction and not just a simple diary. Because the book is Education Fiction, the overall writing of the diary is on the academic and sometimes even scholarly side. Still, it is fiction and it has to be more academic and scholarly since its real purpose is to inform and educate and help drug users and addicts and also their families. The book is also for professionals.

Christmas Legends to Remember


Book Description

Three tales of true Christmas spirit come alive in the hands of award-winning children's author Helen Haidle. Legend of the Candy Cane opens with the lonely candy maker seeking the truth in the Christmas season. As he finds warmth in the laughter and bustle of the village children, a thought occurs: What can he give to show love for those in need? Unexpected inspiration leads to a sweet and meaningful answer. Legend of the Christmas tree recounts the tale of a small, scruffy fir tree with a big heart for helping others. A Special Baby is coming to the nearby village, and the forest is abuzz, but what gift could a small tree give? If the other trees have their way, he won't even get to see the Baby--unless, of course, he's had a gift all along. Catch a glimpse of a real saint in Legend of Saint Nicholas. Wealthy but orphaned at the age of 12, Nicholas lives with his extended family. As his heart turns to giving and charity, his family just doesn't understand. But God calls him to a higher mission, even beyond giving at Christmas time. How long can he keep his giving a secret, and will his family ever understand?







Cajun Women and Mardi Gras


Book Description

Cajun Women and Mardi Gras is the first book to explore the importance of women’s contributions to the country Cajun Mardi Gras tradition, or Mardi Gras “run.” Most Mardi Gras runs--masked begging processions through the countryside, led by unmasked capitaines--have customarily excluded women. Male organizers explain that this rule protects not only the tradition’s integrity but also women themselves from the event’s rowdy, often drunken, play. Throughout the past twentieth century, and especially in the past fifty years, women in some prairie communities have insisted on taking more active and public roles in the festivities. Carolyn E. Ware traces the history of women’s participation as it has expanded from supportive roles as cooks and costume makers to increasingly public performances as Mardi Gras clowns and (in at least one community) capitaines. Drawing on more than a decade of fieldwork interviews and observation in Mardi Gras communities, Ware focuses on the festive actions in Tee Mamou and Basile to reveal how women are reshaping the celebration as creative artists and innovative performers.
