This book is much more than a set of stories; It is a bridge connecting distant realities and a window to the profound experiences of life in Palestine, a place where voices have historically been silenced.

Each page of this book offers a unique opportunity to understand the complexity of Palestinian history, from roots and identity to resilience, childhood, women, memories of the land, and reflections toward the future. It is an invitation to look beyond conventional narratives, to listen to individual voices that have been eclipsed by the noise of conflict and geopolitical tensions.

By reading "Silenced Voices," you will help challenge stigmas and prejudices, humanize the experiences of those who have faced unimaginable challenges, and build bridges of understanding. This book is a call to action, a reminder of the importance of empathy and solidarity in building a more just world.

We encourage you to share this call to action with friends, family, and communities. Invite them to join this journey of knowledge and understanding, so that together we can amplify these silenced voices and contribute to a more informed dialogue about the reality in Palestine.

Let us not allow these voices to remain silent. Let's make "Silenced Voices" a catalyst for change, a tool for education and an inspiration for action. Reading this book will not only enrich your perspective, but will also be an act of solidarity with those whose stories deserve to be heard.

The Mythology of the Slavs -...

Odessa Nightshade

Slavic mythology is a rich and complex tradition that has been shaped by centuries of oral storytelling, cultural exchanges, and historical transformations. Rooted in the beliefs of ancient Slavic tribes, this mythology reflects a deep connection to nature, a reverence for powerful deities, and a world teeming with spirits, gods, and legendary heroes. Unlike the more widely documented mythologies of the Greeks and Romans, Slavic myths were primarily passed down through oral tradition, making them fluid and ever-evolving. As a result, variations exist across different Slavic nations, yet common themes and figures remain central to the mythology as a whole.
The natural world played a crucial role in shaping Slavic beliefs. The Slavs were deeply tied to the cycles of the seasons, the power of the sun, and the mysteries of the forests and rivers. Deities like Perun, the god of thunder, and Veles, the god of the underworld, represented the dual forces of order and chaos, life and death. Forest spirits like the Leshy guarded the woods, while the Rusalka, eerie water nymphs, were believed to lure unsuspecting travelers to a watery grave. These myths not only explained the forces of nature but also provided a spiritual framework for daily life.
Storytelling was the primary means of preserving these myths. Legends were shared around fires, during village gatherings, and at seasonal festivals. Oral tradition allowed for constant reinterpretation, with each storyteller adding new details to fit the cultural and historical context of their time. Folklore heroes, such as Ilya Muromets and Dobrynya Nikitich, emerged as symbols of courage and perseverance, their tales reinforcing the values of strength, loyalty, and wisdom. These stories also carried moral lessons, cautioning against greed, deceit, and disrespect for the natural and supernatural world.

Flipping Patriarchy - Imagining...

Man Who Has It All

An explosive satire of gender stereotypes that flips patriarchy on its head to highlight sexist double standards. 
 
Exploring subjects like work and comedy, history and sport, the beauty industry and domesticity, anonymous author Man Who Has It All imagines a world in which men are bombarded with the same stereotypical bullshit as women. What if men's t-shirts were emblazoned with slogans encouraging them to be smiley, positive and kind? What if we laughed at jokes about fathers-in-law and male drivers? What if men's history was a niche topic? Behind the jokes about crazy cat gentlemen, testerical men and the 24-hour moustache, lies a deeper, darker message about language, power and control. 
 
Smart and provocative, Man Who Has It All shines a powerful light on the prejudice ingrained in our society. Told through fictionalised scenarios and wider cultural analysis, this is a feminist handbook that will arm you against the patriarchy.

Anubis—Ancient Egypt’s Lord of...

Charlie Larson

“A poignant, powerful, inclusive, and deeply personal journey to meet the Great God Anubis. Filled with solid historical information, as well as practical contemporary rituals, magick, healing practices, and prayers, this book drew me in, opened my heart, and made me love dear Anubis even more.” —Michael Butler Smith, author of Embracing Isis Anubis is Egypt’s original Lord of the Dead. That title was eventually transferred to Osiris, but even then, Anubis continued to be the most active participant in the after-death process, supervising rituals that determined what would befall the dead soul. He is credited as the inventor of mummification. A shrine to Anubis, one of the most significant gods of ancient Egypt, was discovered within Tutankhamun’s tomb. The image of Anubis has evolved into a veritable symbol of ancient Egypt. Usually identified as a jackal or as a jackal-headed man, Anubis’s domain extends beyond death—he is a guardian of children and travelers and a finder of lost things. Anubis’s adopted mother, the goddess Isis, became popular outside Egypt, with temples in Rome and as far as the British Isles. As her guardian, Anubis traveled with her. He is as modern as he is ancient, appearing in comic books, video games, and in the book American Gods and its television adaptation. In modern times, Anubis has emerged as a sacred patron of mediums and occultists. In this practical guide to working with Anubis, author Charlie Larson focuses the spotlight squarely on the jackal-headed god. Steeped in history and mythology, Anubis—Ancient Egypt’s Lord of Death and Protection features devotional practices and modern worship that includes rituals, prayers, invocations, correspondences, altars, and epithets. The book leads the reader on a journey of exploration into all things Anubis, delving into his various facets—death deity, psychopomp, and protector.

Is It Possible to End the...

Jiddu Krishnamurti

Is it possible to end the thousand yesterdays? - 13 November 1968 
• Living together amicably, creatively, in complete relationship with one another 
– if that is what is essential then we need not only a different kind of mind but 
also a different quality of affection, love. 
• What is the function of a religious mind? 
• Our struggle in life is dualistic: good and bad, right and wrong, holy and unholy, 
the ideal and the fact. There is only the fact, not the ideal. 
• Is it possible to look at life as though you are looking for the first time? 
• What is the content of the unconscious? It is the racial residue, the traditional, 
the family, the personal. It is as trivial as the conscious mind. 
• Q: It seems to me that the ‘I’, the ego only exists in relation to other things. 
Could you comment on this? 
• The impossible becomes possible only when you discard the impossibility of it. 
To find out anything you must go beyond the impossible. 
• Q: What do you mean by meditation? 
• There is no ‘how’.
