DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Ancient Whisper is the story of Ellen Andress and her family as they struggle to make sense of a horrible tragedy. They must go 'underground' to avoid repercussions from the fallout the tragedy creates. All of their possessions are confiscated and sold to purchase half of an old dilapidated horse farm called Ashwood Farms, located in the State of Virginia. All this comes about, with the help from Special FBI Agents Lenard and Gene, who arrange for Ellen's uncharacteristic new housing situation. With no money left to renovate the atrocious house, the abundance of fine antiques and collectable objects turn out to be an unexpected source of income, but it won't come soon enough. Ellen then embarks on the only way she knows that will generate what's needed quickly; enter the intriguing world of horseracing, wagering, and high-stakes betting. As the family rebuilds their lives, they find themselves embroiled in a tangled web of deceit and calamities as strange incidents begin to happen. Ellen questions everything, and wonders if it's the ghost of the original Mrs. Ashwood, she often imagines she hears her sigh. Is she whispering secrets to Ellen? Is she happy a family lives at Ashwood again? When her prized Thoroughbred is mysteriously murdered, Ellen attempts to contact Lenard and Gene, but she is unsuccessful. Ellen then contacts the FBI and the CIA, but they don't know who these suspicious 'Agents' are and she starts to panic. A genuine CIA team comes to protect them after the story unfolds, and it's soon clear that Ellen's son Jason is the next target.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →“Lyrical, intelligent, and passionately written, Whisper Tapes reignites a long dormant conversation about the urgency of global feminism.” —Shilyh Warren, University of Texas at Dallas Kate Millett was already an icon of American feminism when she went to Iran in 1979. She arrived just weeks after the Iranian Revolution, to join Iranian women in marking International Women's Day. Intended as a day of celebration, the event turned into a week of protests. Millett, armed with film equipment and a cassette deck to record everything around her, found herself in the middle of demonstrations for women’s rights and against the mandatory veil. Listening to the revolutionary soundscape of Millett's audio tapes, Negar Mottahedeh offers a new interpretive guide to Revolutionary Iran, its slogans, habits, and women’s movement—a movement that, many claim, Millett never came to understand. Published with the fortieth anniversary of the Iranian Revolution and the women's protests that followed on its heels, Whisper Tapes re-introduces Millett's historic visit to Iran and lays out the nature of her encounter with the Iranian women's movement. “In offering a deeply contingent history, Negar Mottahedeh beautifully shows Kate Millett's simultaneous closeness to and distance from the events surrounding her.” —Behrooz Ghamari-Tabrizi, Princeton University “Lyrical in style and poetic in meaning, Whisper Tapes challenges readers to adopt an intersectional view of Iranian feminist movements while adding layers and dimensionality to Millett’s preexisting literature.” ––Aisha Jitan, The Middle East Journal “Mottahedeh's illuminating study complements Millett's work and offers a more nuanced reading of a historic moment.” —Lucy Popescu, Times Literary Supplement

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In Isobars, Janette Turner Hospital presents fifteen stories of lives precariously balanced between the past and the present, between the real and the imagined, between the steamy tropical rain forests and beaches of Australia and the urban landscapes of North American cities. The title story is a kind of cubist meditation on violence against women, refracted through years of fragmented memories into a stunning locus of dread. Indeed, each of the stories is in its own way a fugue on the evanescence of time and distance. In “The Second Coming of Come-by-Chance,” the apocalyptic resurfacing of a submerged city during a drought prompts the reemergence of an old woman’s memory of her rape as a fledgling schoolteacher some forty years earlier. Throughout these stories the real and imaginary collide again and again under the pressures of passion, loneliness, and grief. In “The Loss of Faith,” a middle-aged professor “sees” his first wife on a New York subway the day she dies in Australia. In “A Little Night Music,” a young woman’s brief sexual encounter with a stranger on an airplane turns out to be a drug-induced fantasy—perhaps. As the consciousness of her characters clickers between Queensland and Ontario, Sydney and Manhattan, Hospital skillfully blurs the lines between the quotidian and mythic, between the real and surreal. At the haunting conclusion of “Uncle Seaborn,” a man returning to Australia after the death of his parents finds himself drawn by a talisman coin and an almost atavistic longing to a mysterious rendezvous in the sea. And in the chilling piece “Queen on Pentacles, Nine of Swords,” the Tarot is the means by which a fortune-teller’s life becomes entangled with that of a brilliantly doomed Indian woman. Yet even the most somber stories pulls back at the edge of despair, and there are moments of dazzling illumination, tenderness, and transcendence. In “I Saw Three Ships,” an alcoholic veteran haunted by a friend’s death in World War II seeks redemption through a “visitation” by a young woman he meets on the beach, and comes close to self-forgiveness in a final heart-wrenching tableau of misunderstanding. Profound, compassionate, powerful, these stories explore the outermost boundaries of emotion. Isobars reaffirms Janette Turner Hospital’s status as one of the preeminent writers of contemporary fiction.
