  New York Times bestselling author J. A. Jance's heartrending collection of poetry and essays recounts a dark chapter of her own life, her first marriage to an alcoholic—a powerful look at the emotional cost of addiction and an inspiring story of courage and triumph in the wake of crushing defeat 
  Before she found fame as a bestselling mystery author, Judith Jance wrestled with the anguish of being married to an alcoholic. For years she channeled her pain into words, composing the poems in this moving volume, first published in 1984, a year before her debut novel. 
  In searing and direct language, After the Fire chronicles the collapse of Jance's first marriage under the weight of her husband's addiction—and her own unwitting denial and codependence while she struggled to find herself. "I will not be the price of your redemption," she wrote then. "I will not pay my life to ransom yours." 
  An intimate, deeply personal look into a wrenching time in Jance's life, After the Fire is a portrait of addiction and its insidious effects on lives and love. It illuminates universal truths about unbearable loss and finding the courage to carry on, and offers inspiration and profound insight into the heart and work of a beloved bestselling author.

  “In poetic prose, I revisit the scars of childhood abuse, molding me into a hollow shell of womanhood. Navigating immigrant pressures, cultures clash, tugging me in divergent paths. Unraveling buried trauma, self-destruction consumed, shattering false identities. Intuition emerges as my guide, leading through mystical realms to rebirth. From unworthiness to purpose-seeking, I rise, embracing happiness, truth, and destiny’s dance.” —From the author   This is the author’s poetic recollection of being abused as a child and how the aftermath shaped her to live her life as a shell of a woman. She takes the reader through the front seat of her mind as she navigates the pressures of being the daughter of brown immigrants and how the clash of cultures pushed and pulled her in different directions. Discovering the trauma stored in her body, self-destruction from the inside led to the inevitable death of her false self. Learning to trust her intuition and the universe, getting lost and found in the world of magic and her prophetic dreams, ultimately guided her to the rebirth of an awakened identity. She went from not feeling worthy enough to live, to searching for her purpose, pulling herself out of the hole, finding her happiness, and never looking back. She learned to live her truth, love herself, and instinctively play with her fate.

  The Pre-Raphaelite Poets - A...

  The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood began as a group of painters, including Dante Gabriel Rossetti and William Holman Hunt, who wished to reject the stern and academic strictures of current painting and return to the simpler and more uncomplicated days before the Italian High Renaissance and the days of Raphael. 
  The movement was short lived but very influential and, as well, was taken up by a number of different arts. 
  For poetry, it was a major movement and, because of its depiction of pleasures of the flesh, was, at the time, heavily criticised.  One critic called it ‘The Fleshly School of Poetry’. However, the sensationalist aside, it unleashed works that had instant appeal.  The movement pushed back against contemporary writings which seemed full of tradition and the more mundane problems of society.  
  To exploit and gain attention for their ideas, the Brotherhood started their own periodical; The Germ, which, although it only lasted four numbers did much to bring them attention.  
  Its devotion to the Mediaeval, to symbols and a more naturalistic and detailed approach to poetry were refreshing, especially as the movement sprang up from a Victorian Society that believed morals should be strictly managed, or at least in public. 
  The Pre-Raphaelites as an organised group eventually went their own way but had behind them works which heavily influenced painting and literature for decades to come. 
  With poets of the calibre of Dante Gabriel Rossetti, his sister Christina Georgina Rossetti, William Morris, Charles Algernon Swinburne and George Meredith poetry of great beauty, tenderness and even rawness was placed on the page. 
   This volume comes to you from Portable Poetry, a specialized imprint from Deadtree Publishing.  Our range is large and growing and covers single poets, themes, and many compilations.

  He wants power. He wants love. Society gives him neither without a price.
  Julien Sorel, brilliant and fiercely ambitious, rises from humble origins into a world ruled by class, hypocrisy, and political intrigue. Torn between faith and ambition, desire and pride, he navigates dangerous romances and ruthless social games—each choice pulling him closer to triumph or ruin.

  If you love sharp character studies, political tension, and classics that expose the cost of ambition, this novel is unforgettable.
  
  Open the book—and witness how desire and destiny collide.
