  The Pink Dress - A Memoir of a...

  Growing up in West Texas, Jane Little Botkin didn't have designs on becoming a beauty queen. But not long after joining a pageant on a whim in college, she became the first protégé of El Paso's Richard Guy and Rex Holt, known as the "Kings of Beauty"—just as the 1970's counterculture movement began to take off.A pink, rose-covered gown—a Guyrex creation—symbolizes the fairy tale life that young women in Jane's time imagined beauty queens had. Its near destruction exposes reality: the author's failed relationship with her mother, and her parents' failed relationship with one another. Weaving these narrative threads together is the Wild West notion that anything is possible, especially do-overs.The Pink Dress awakens nostalgia for the 1960s and 1970s, the era's conflicts and growth pains. A common expectation that women went to college to get "MRS" degrees—to find a husband and become a stay-at-home wife and mother—often prevailed. How does one swim upstream against this notion among feminist voices that protest "If You Want Meat, Go to a Butcher!" at beauty pageants, two flamboyant showmen, and a developing awareness of self? Torn between women's traditional roles and what women could be, Guyrex Girls evolved, as did the author.

  Experience Holy Friday from the perspective of those who watched Jesus die: Mary his mother; the Beloved Disciple from the Gospel of John; Mary Magdalene and the other women from Galilee; the two men, usually identified as thieves, crucified with Jesus; the centurion and the soldiers; Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus. Jews and Romans, friends and strangers, the powerful and the powerless, the hopeful and the despairing. 
   
   
   
  The story of Jesus's death is not something we just read: we think about it, and we experience it. 
   
   
   
  In Witness at the Cross, Amy-Jill Levine shows how the people at the cross each have distinct roles to play. Each Evangelist presents a distinct picture of the death of Jesus. Each portrays different individuals and groups of people at the cross, each offers different images and dialogues, and so from each, we learn how those meanings and messages cross the centuries to any who would come to the cross today. 
   
   
   
  Each Gospel has its own story to tell, all the witnesses have their own memories, and every reader comes away with a new insight. The witnesses at the Crucifixion watch Jesus die, and we watch with them, and we watch them. And we come away transformed.

  This is small introduction of the book: In the annals of intellectual history, the name "Voltaire" stands as a beacon of enlightenment, a multifaceted figure whose life and ideas continue to shape our understanding of the world. François-Marie Arouet, better known by his pen name Voltaire, emerged as a pivotal force in 18th-century France, leaving an indelible mark as a writer, historian, and philosopher. 
  Born on November 21, 1694, in the heart of Paris, Voltaire's journey traversed the corridors of power, the confines of prison walls, and the intellectual salons of Europe. His story unfolds against the backdrop of a time marked by profound social and philosophical transformations—the Enlightenment. 
  As we embark on this exploration of Voltaire's life, we delve into the tumultuous yet captivating events that shaped his character and fueled his intellectual pursuits. From his early years at the Jesuit College Louis-le-Grand to the transformative sojourn in England, where he imbibed the spirit of liberty and reason, each chapter in Voltaire's life reads like a riveting narrative. 
  In Chapter 2, "Birth and Early Life - 1694," we delve into the origins of this influential thinker, exploring the circumstances of his birth and the early influences that set the stage for his intellectual curiosity. Chapter 3, "His Education," uncovers the formative years of Voltaire's learning, providing insights into the foundations that would support his later literary and philosophical endeavors.

  Where do mental illness stories begin? 
   
  Anna’s always had too many feelings. Or not enough feelings – she’s never been quite sure. Debilitating panic. Extraordinary melancholy. Paranoia. Ambivalence. Fear. Despair.  
   
  From anxious child to terrified parent, mental illness has been a constant. A harsh critic in the big moments – teenage pregnancy, divorce, a dream career, falling in love – and a companion in the small ones – getting to the supermarket, feeding all her cats, remembering which child is which. 
   
  But between therapists’ rooms and emergency departments, there’s been a feeling even harder to explain … optimism. 
   
  In this sharp-eyed and illuminating memoir, award-winning writer Anna Spargo-Ryan pieces together the relationships between time, mental illness, and our brain as the keeper of our stories. Against the backdrop of her own experience, she interrogates reality, how it can be fractured, and why it’s so hard to put it back together.  
   
  Powerfully honest, tender and often funny, A Kind of Magic blends meticulous research with vivid snapshots of the stuff that breaks us, and the magic of finding ourselves again.
