“Bold, original, and utterly captivating, The Apology is a sweeping intergenerational saga, delivered by one of the sharpest, most memorable voices I’ve ever read. A stunning new novel by a writer whose work I’ve long admired.” —Kirstin Chen, author of Counterfeit

In South Korea, a 105-year-old woman receives a letter. Ten days later, she has been thrust into the afterlife, fighting to head off a curse that will otherwise devastate generations to come.
 
Jeonga Cha has always shouldered the burden of upholding the family name. When she sent her daughter-in-law to America to cover up an illegitimate birth, she was simply doing what was needed to preserve the reputations of her loved ones. How could she have known that decades later, this decision would return to haunt her—threatening to tear apart her bond with her beloved son, her relationship with her infuriatingly insolent sisters, and the future of the family she has worked so hard to protect?
 
Part ghost story and part family epic, The Apology is an incisive tale of sisterhood and diaspora, reaching back to the days of Japanese colonialism and the Korean War, and told through the singular voice of a defiant, funny, and unforgettable centenarian.

The Apology by Jimin Han Read by Kathleen Kim - Audiobook Excerpt

This Book May Save Your Life - Chapter 7

What feminine part of yourself did you have to destroy in order to survive in this world? At what point does femininity become synonymous with apology? Who hurt the people who hurt you? Let's figure it out.

Femme in Public (2017) is the debut poetry collection by transfeminine writer Alok Vaid-Menon including work from 2014-2017. It is a meditation on anti-trans harassment, a ceremony for loss and grief, and an imagining of what could be if we weren’t taught to fear the very things that have the potential to set us free.

This is the second edition of the book published in 2021. It features new poems from the vault.

Femme In Public by Alok Vaid-Menon, Narrated by  Alok Vaid-Menon (Fill)

Par une froide matinée de novembre, un joggeur découvre un corps pendu à un arbre dans les bois du paisible village de Three Pines. Le pauvre homme séjournait à l’Auberge, où il était sans doute venu chercher la tranquillité. Mais s’est-il vraiment donné la mort ou a-t-il été assassiné ? Le chef de la section des homicides et son fidèle second Beauvoir sont appelés à élucider l’affaire. En examinant les indices, ils mettent au jour un secret terrible et déchirant. Or Armand Gamache sait que la conscience cède parfois tragiquement sous le poids du passé....

La version originale, The Hangman, a été publiée en 2010 dans le cadre d’un programme faisant la promotion de la littératie chez l’adulte.

'I have written a blasphemous book', said Melville when his novel was first published in 1851, 'and I feel as spotless as the lamb'.

Out of Dominion was born its bastard child - or perhaps its immaculate conception - the Moby-Dick Big Read: an online version of Melville's magisterial tome: each of its 135 chapters read out aloud, by a mixture of the celebrated and the unknown, to be broadcast online, one new chapter each day, in a sequence of 135 downloads, publicly and freely accessible.

“Want a happier, more contented life? I highly recommend the down-to-earth methods you’ll find in Mindfulness.

Warriors #1: Into The Wild by Erin Hunter (1/14)

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER &bull; From the Academy Award&#174;&ndash;winning actor, an unconventional memoir filled with raucous stories, outlaw wisdom, and lessons learned the hard way about living with greater satisfaction NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE GUARDIAN &ldquo;Unflinchingly honest and remarkably candid, Matthew McConaughey&rsquo;s book invites us to grapple with the lessons of his life as he did&mdash;and to see that the point was never to win, but to understand.&rdquo;&mdash;Mark Manson, author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck I&rsquo;ve been in this life for fifty years, been trying to work out its riddle for forty-two, and been keeping diaries of clues to that riddle for the last thirty-five. Notes about successes and failures, joys and sorrows, things that made me marvel, and things that made me laugh out loud. How to be fair. How to have less stress. How to have fun. How to hurt people less. How to get hurt less. How to be a good man. How to have meaning in life. How to be more me. &#160; Recently, I worked up the courage to sit down with those diaries. I found stories I experienced, lessons I learned and forgot, poems, prayers, prescriptions, beliefs about what matters, some great photographs, and a whole bunch of bumper stickers. I found a reliable theme, an approach to living that gave me more satisfaction, at the time, and still: If you know how, and when, to deal with life&rsquo;s challenges&mdash;how to get relative with the inevitable&mdash;you can enjoy a state of success I call &ldquo;catching greenlights.&rdquo; &#160; So I took a one-way ticket to the desert and wrote this book: an album, a record, a story of my life so far. This is fifty years of my sights and seens, felts and figured-outs, cools and shamefuls. Graces, truths, and beauties of brutality. Getting away withs, getting caughts, and getting wets while trying to dance between the raindrops. &#160; Hopefully, it&rsquo;s medicine that tastes good, a couple of aspirin instead of the infirmary, a spaceship to Mars without needing your pilot&rsquo;s license, going to church without having to be born again, and laughing through the tears. &#160; It&rsquo;s a love letter. To life. &#160; It&rsquo;s also a guide to catching more greenlights&mdash;and to realizing that the yellows and reds eventually turn green too. &#160; Good luck. The short dust jacket included with this hardcover edition is an intentional design choice.
