Найти книгу: "Love Not Given Lightly"

Tina Horn is a well-known pornographer, counter-culture journalist, and sex worker advocate. Her first book is a refreshing take on sex work memoir – instead of telling her own stories of kinky sex work and queer filmmaking, Tina writes about the extraordinary friends she has made while working in the sex industry.The quirky, yet familiar characters who populate Tina Horn's book allow readers to imagine what it is like to step into a new sexual identity or role or perspective, and have it change one's life forever. And open up the possibility of changing again, and again. Taking Ovid and Kafka as loose models, Tina Horn weaves finely wrought profiles of singular individuals undertaking sexual metamorphosis.Serves as narrative entertainment, radical political manifesto, and academic insight into modern sexual subjects such as BDSM, transgender identities, queer family, women's communities, polyamory, and sex worker's rights. Will appeal to anarchist/ feminist leaning independent bookstores: http://www.pastemagazine.com/blogs/lists/2014/05/the-last-13-feminist-bookstores-in-the-us-and-canada.htmlhttp://radicalreference.info/alt_books

Explanatory dictionary

If we harbor thoughts of violence or hatred, or seek revenge or retribution, we are contributing to the wounding of the world; if we transform those thoughts into forgiveness and compassion, and then move beyond them to actually make amends or restitution, we are contributing to the healing of the world. This timely, powerful and compassionate book helps show us the way. —Deepak Chopra «Nothing will help us survive the present age more than breaking the tragic cycles of violence and revenge that threaten our very existence. To do so, we must honor our soul's desire for deeper forms of reconciliation, a process that Phil Cousineau reveals here as being on the other side of forgiveness, in the ancient ritual of atonement. His book is a profoundly important contribution to the healing of the world, and I give it my blessing.» —Robert A. Johnson, author of Transformation, Inner Work and Owning Your Own Shadow As indispensable as forgiveness has been to the healing process throughout history, there is another equally profound action that is needed for ultimate reconciliation, which Arun Gandhi, grandson of Mohandas Gandhi, calls “the other side of the coin.” Turning over the coin of forgiveness, we discover atonement, the half-hidden, much-overlooked other half of the reconciliation process. Beyond Forgiveness shows how acts of atonement—making amends, providing restitution, restoring balance—can relieve us of the pain of the past and give us a hopeful future. This rich and powerful book includes 15 thoughtful contributions by high-profile thinkers and activists including Huston Smith, Michael Bernard Beckwith, Azim Khamisa, Rabbi Michael Lerner, Jacob Needleman, Michael Nagler, Diane Hennacy Powell, James O’Dea, Arun Gandhi, Kate Dahlstedt, Ed Tick, Richard J. Meyer, Rev. Heng Sure, Douglas George-Kanentiio and Katharine Dever. Atonement is put forward as a process that we must all learn to practice—from individuals to nations—if we are to heal our wounds and move forward.
