Who am I? Why am I here? To discover, through awakening, your unlimited potential and the extraordinarily divine life you are meant to live. Like most people, Pauline Raphaela had a plan for the fulfillment of her life, until a mystical presence began to steer her in an unusual, yet exciting direction. In The Little Blue Room, Pauline invites you into her own sacred journey of awakening. Amidst crises, illness, revelation and surrender, distinguishing the shadow-self from the authentic Soul, Pauline discovers her truth. She shares mystical experiences, revealing how we are guided to our Soul’s destiny, when we are courageous enough to follow. Pauline gently mentors how to deeply heal your life, including ancestral patterns, to awaken your innate greatness. The courage to awaken to your truth, to Soul love, joy, freedom and power, is already within you. “Well-written and inspiring . . . a must-read for anyone who wishes to awaken their Soul—more than a memoir, more than a self-help book. Pauline is an exuberant storyteller, who takes you on a spiritual journey that will transform your life.” — Cindi Sansone-Braff, The Romance Whisperer, author of Grant Me a Higher Love and other titles. “Drawing from dramatic episodes and compelling insights in her life, Pauline shows how the Soul tries to awaken at critical times. What we need now is not a minor repair, but a major transformation of the world that can only start with the awakening of the individual Soul.” — Lynn Van Praagh-Gratton author of Divine Dimes and other titles.

A novel about a mother-daughter relationship that will send a chill down your spine. Johanne is a young woman in her twenties who lives with her mother. When she falls in love with Ivar, she finally feels ready to leave home. The couple plan a trip to America. But the morning of her departure, Johanne wakes up to find the door locked. Can she overcome her fears? Will she shout for help? Will she climb out of her fourth floor window? Why Peirene chose to publish this book: 'Everyone who has read Fifty Shades of Grey should read this book. Why? The Blue Room holds up a mirror to a part of the female psyche that yearns for submission. The story shows how erotic fantasies are formed by the relationship with our parents. It then delves further to analyse the struggle of women to separate from their mothers - a struggle that is rarely addressed in either literature or society.' Meike Ziervogel 'A masterpiece of unreliable narration.' Nicholas Lezard, Guardian 'A highly unusual, coolly daring psychological thriller that explores emotional pain and indifference with an unsettling detachment.' Eileen Battersby, Irish Times 'A work of chilling, masterly control.' Laura Profumo, Times Literary Supplement 'Nothing is certain, no motive is clear and no person is above suspicion in Ørstavik's perfectly pitched, tightly stitched and captivating brain-teaser.' Pam Norfolk, Lancashire Evening Post 'Ørstavik treats the everyday and existential with intensity.' Max Liu, Independent 'Psychologically astute and deftly translated . . . A brilliant examination of a woman struggling to own her sexuality, to break free from the guilt and forge her own identity.' Lucy Popescu, Tablet GUARDIAN PAPERBACKS OF THE YEAR 2014

A sensation in London and on Broadway, The Blue Room depicts a daisy chain of ten sexual encounters between five women and five men all played by one actor and actress portraying the hypocrisy, the folly and the loneliness of this roundelay. Freely adapting the original play, Hare has moved the action from turn-of-the-century Vienna to modern London and infused the sketches with witty and provocative modern nuances. -- Publisher's website.
