Book excerpt: When Danny Cumberland went to prison, Pierce Brosnan was still James Bond. Eighteen months after he got out of prison, he found out he had a daughter. She'd been kidnapped and murdered just a year before he was paroled. Danny is staying out of trouble, trying to run a business, and learning to fit back into a world that left him behind twelve years ago. He's also trying to piece together the life of a child he never knew. As he digs deeper into the investigation, questions start popping up. Her body was the wrong height. Her hair color was wrong. But the DNA matched, didn't it? DNA is never wrong. Is it? If she's still alive, saving her means violating his parole and lying to people he's come to care about. How far will an ex-con go to rescue a daughter he never knew who isn’t even supposed to be alive?

Download or read book The Aesthetics of Self-Harm written by Zoe Alderton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Aesthetics of Self-Harm presents a new approach to understanding parasuicidal behaviour, based upon an examination of online communities that promote performances of self-harm in the pursuit of an idealised beauty. The book considers how online communities provide a significant level of support for self-harmers and focuses on relevant case studies to establish a new model for the comprehension of the online supportive community. To do so, Alderton explores discussions of self-harm and disordered eating on social networks. She examines aesthetic trends that contextualise harmful behavior and help people to perform feelings of sadness and vulnerability online. Alderton argues that the traditional understanding of self-violence through medical discourse is important, but that it misses vital elements of human group activity and the motivating forces of visual imagery. Covering psychiatry and psychology, rhetoric and sociology, this book provides essential reading for psychologists, sociologists and anthropologists exploring group dynamics and ritual, and rhetoricians who are concerned with the communicative powers of images. It should also be of great interest to medical professionals dealing with self-harming patients.

Download or read book First Love written by Lilly Dancyger and published by Dial Press. This book was released on 2024-05-07 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A bold, poignant essay collection that treats women’s friendships as the love stories they truly are, from the critically acclaimed author of Negative Space “Fiercely felt and finely etched.”—Leslie Jamison, New York Times bestselling author of The Empathy Exams Lilly Dancyger always thought of her closest friendships as great loves, complex and profound as any romance. When her beloved cousin was murdered just as both girls were entering adulthood, Dancyger’s devotion to the women in her life took on a new urgency—a desire to hold her friends close while she still could. In First Love, this urgency runs through a striking exploration of the bonds between women, from the intensity of adolescent best friendship and fluid sexuality to mothering and chosen family. Each essay in this incisive collection is grounded in a close female friendship in Dancyger’s life, reaching outward to dissect cultural assumptions about identity and desire, and the many ways women create space for each other in a world that wants us small. Seamlessly weaving personal experience with literature and pop culture—ranging from fairy tales to true crime, from Anaïs Nin and Sylvia Plath to Heavenly Creatures and the “sad girls” of Tumblr—Dancyger’s essays form a kaleidoscopic story of a life told through friendships, and an expansive interrogation of what it means to love each other. Though friendship will never be enough to keep us safe from the dangers of the world, Dancyger reminds us that love is always worth the risk, and that when tragedy strikes, it’s our friends who will help us survive. In First Love, these essential bonds get their due.
