A girl and her mother, three crows, spikes on a field, and clouds draw the first scene. But the girl, like all children, expect her great adventure of being lost. The mistery kidnaps her. It leads her to an underground dream where the dream is reality and darkness is clear as a diamond light. Oneiric, musical story, opened to “what is heard inside”, this book invites us to discover that beyond the veil that is spread between the world and the things, “each sleeping seed, each root, each stem, every flower that rises,” and us, entirely.

Ein Regisseur will mit vier Schauspielern eine Szene proben. Es ist nicht irgendeine, sondern jene Passage aus dem Johannes-Evangelium, die als Magdalena am Grab bekannt ist. Sie proben in einem leerstehenden Haus am Mulholland Drive in Hollywood. Die kurze Szene, die so einfach und eindeutig scheint, wird immer wieder durchgespielt, denn bei jedem Durchgang verliert sie mehr und mehr an vertrauter Kontur: Spiel und Wirklichkeit durchdringen sich auf fast gespenstische Weise. Alles hängt offenbar an einer Wendung, die erforderlich wäre, damit das Geschichten ganz verständlich würde – an einem Satz, den der Bibeltext jedoch ausspart, als solle hier ein Geheimnis immer neu entdeckt werden.

Seduced Into Darkness: Transcending My Psychiatrist's Sexual Abuse is a vivid and captivating story of hope for survivors of abuse as well as a case study in a skilled manipulator's tragic exploitation of his professional power.This poignant memoir chronicles the traumatic psychological abduction and sexual exploitation of depressed college student Carrie Tansey at the hands of her psychiatrist, Dr. Anthony Romano―thirty-one years her senior. For three years, their secret “affair” was carefully calculated and controlled by Romano, as Carrie's mental and emotional health continued to deteriorate, bringing her closer and closer to the edge.Their dual-relationship―clinical and clandestine―finally came to light when Carrie's suicide attempts landed her in a world-renowned psychiatric hospital. Gradually, she began to reclaim her power, reported Romano to the state licensing board, successfully sued him for malpractice, and testified before the state legislature to help pass a law aimed at curbing such abuses.As Carrie tells her tale, it is a journey paralleling that of the mythical archetype Persephone, the naive innocent who was abducted into darkness, reemerged and regenerated herself, then fearlessly returned to the prison she had fled, this time to help free others. Today, Carrie Ishee is a widely respected art therapist and life coach as well as a teacher specializing in the issues of ethics and boundaries for mental health professionals.

This is the first single volume edition of A Trick to Catch the Old One for many decades. This edition presents a thoroughly reconsidered text based on collation of all known copies of the 1608 quarto (including material unnoticed by earlier editors). Textual analysis draws on detailed internal investigation and the printer's wider practice to propose that relatively improvisational procedures and a paper quota governed A Trick's printing operations. Discovery of an overlooked record revises the date of court performance to 1 January 1607, with implications for the play's early history. Critical discussion freshly examines the play's multi-layered ironic texture in relation to such issues as the status of women, marriage's relation to prostitution and vice versa, and the contemporary marriage market. And the Courtesan receives special attention in the context of this overarching ironic scheme. An extensive stage history explores original staging and documents revivals to 2011. The commentary is the most wide-ranging and comprehensive of all modern editions. ;
The Story of Y, fits inside the genre of Memoir without being a linear biography or a reflection at a distance. With its first person of the present narrative point of view, it insists in jumping back in time to understand what was brewed there and if it became (or not), a crucial part of what is today. The main character, driven by a tragic event - the death of her father, whom she never saw again since she was nineteen- reluctantly must rearrange the boxes in that closet in which, when she was young, managed to pile the unnecessary and close the door…until today.

“Melissa, silly little goat, Melissa sta—” Charles Flanders Cunningham III — a name that will rank with Hannibal Lecter as the ultimate evil genius. Charles Flanders Cunningham III — the wealthiest, most influential lawyer in the United States, perhaps the world, trusted counselor to presidents, prime ministers, and world leaders. But Cunningham has a dark side, a very dark side known only to himself and his five accomplices. Cunningham arranges to kidnap children from all over the world, none more than six years old, for a period of two weeks, after which they are returned by a wonderful, charitable organization, ChildFinders, to their despairing parents, safe, secure, and outwardly none the worse for wear … but changed. Changed by chemicals, computer implants, and mind alteration. And they do not know it — until they hear one of a thousand catchphrases. Then they turn into programmed automatons, who will do whatever the next command tells them to do. Afterward, the chip erases all memory of what they have done. By means of this undetectable “army,” Cunningham aims to control the world. Can a team led by Israeli counterterrorist Ezra Caen (Assassin, The Wrecking Crew) stop him before it is too late? In the tradition of The Manchurian Candidate and Telefon, you’d best hold on to your nerves and plan on staying up very, very late to finish this riveting thriller. And be frightened. Be very, very frightened. You never can tell if you will be the next victim … or the next killer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APyyH0hZ488 Published by Pangæa Publishing Group,2020. 300 pages – 23 cm x 15 cm
