Sinopse

"Unveiled: Navigating the Crossroads of Modesty and Society" delves into the complex and often contentious world of fashion, modesty, and societal norms. The author embarks on a candid exploration of the silent messages conveyed through our attire and how these choices resonate within the framework of Christian values and broader societal perceptions.
Throughout the book, readers are invited to a multifaceted discourse, analyzing the dichotomy between attention-seeking and attention-avoiding behaviors, and how these are manifested and perceived in everyday life and the celebrity culture. With an unflinching look at the role of lust, sexual purity, and the influence of media, the author addresses the challenges faced in maintaining personal integrity and modesty in a world saturated with sexualized imagery and expectations.
From the biblical perspective on purity and the perils of lust to the modern-day implications of fashion choices, "Unveiled" offers a comprehensive examination of the societal and spiritual dimensions of our presentation. The book confronts the uncomfortable truths and double standards that pervade discussions about female attire, body image, and the subtle yet powerful influence of the media.
"Unveiled" is not just a critique but a journey towards understanding, a call to introspection, and a guide for navigating the delicate balance between personal expression and societal impact. It's an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the deep-seated connections between our external appearance, internal values, and the societal lenses through which we are viewed. This book challenges readers to reflect on their choices and the messages they send, fostering a discourse that goes beyond the fabric of our clothes to the fabric of our society.

    Note: This audiobook is included (for free) inside its respective print and e-book versions. 
    Every person experiences emotions; it’s one of the most natural aspects of everyone’s life. Unfortunately, not everyone is capable of dealing with these intense feelings effectively. And, when you’ve been raised by emotionally immature parents who don’t allow you to be an individual who can express their feelings, you will be set up for failed (and sometimes even abusive) relationships in the future. 
    As children, our number one role models are our parents; we give them unconditional trust to guide us through the world. But when the trust is broken, and their behavior and temperament toward us are less than ideal, we can develop coping mechanisms in a bid to shield ourselves from the hurt. If your parent starved you emotionally, then you have a pretty clear picture of what this means – but it doesn't have to remain this way. 
    In her original, clinical psychologist Dr. Lindsay Gibson discusses this phenomenon, the effect that the poor emotional development of parents can have on their children’s lives, and practical steps you can take to break free from this cycle. 
    This workbook offers an immersive experience that combines summaries, key takeaways, insights, exercises, prompts, thought-provoking questions, and guided reflections to bridge the gap between the book's teachings and your life. You will embark on thorough shadow work guided by the wisdom of Lindsay C. Gibson, but there's only one rule – don't be afraid to dig deep and feel. Facing the resurfacing emotions of your past may be uncomfortable, to say the least, but it is an essential part of the process.

    Girl as Birch - Poems

    Gibson’s previous book Opinel, starts and ends on the image of a workaday knife used by shepherds, peasants, and artists, using her sensitive and critical eye to explore family, culture, nature, and the world we inhabit. In Girl as Birch, Gibson turns her attention to the experience of growing up as a girl in the United States, coming of age while pushing against expectations for what a girl should be. The title poem uses the image of a birch tree to describe the pressure to bend to what others want: 
    Rebecca Kaiser Gibson is the author of Opinel (Bauhan Publishing, 2015) and two chapbooks, Admit the Peacock and Inside the Exhibition. She is the recipient of fellowships from MacDowell, The Heinrich Böll Cottage in Ireland, and the 2008 Fellowship in Poetry, Massachusetts Cultural Council, and was selected as a Fulbright Scholar to teach poetry in Hyderabad, India, in 2011. She is founder and director of The Loom, Poetry in Harrisville, a poetry reading series. Her poems have appeared in The Adroit Journal; Agni; Field; The Greensboro Review; Green Mountain Review; The Harvard Review; The Massachusetts Review; Ocean State Review; Salamander; Slate; and been featured in VerseDaily. Rebecca lives in Marlborough, New Hampshire, and taught poetry at Tufts University for twenty-three years. 
    Praise for Girl as Birch: “Rebecca Kaiser Gibson’s Girl as Birch is a wonder of lyric compression and subtle music. At times deeply personal, at times nearly mythic, these poems meditate on the complexities of memory and mortality, the fact of the female body, and the lessons of the natural world, cultivated and wild. These are beautiful poems and I’ll return to them with great pleasure.”  ––Kevin Prufer, author of The Art of Fiction

    Misfire - The Sarajevo...

    The story has so often been told: Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to the throne of the Habsburg Empire, was shot dead on June 28, 1914, in the Bosnian capital of Sarajevo. Thirty days later, the Archduke's uncle, Emperor Franz Joseph, declared war on the Kingdom of Serbia, producing the chain reaction of European powers entering the First World War. 
     
     
     
    In Misfire, Paul Miller-Melamed narrates the history of the Sarajevo assassination and the origins of World War I from the perspective of the Balkans. Miller-Melamed embeds the incident in the longer-term conditions of the Balkans that gave rise to the political murder. He thus illuminates the centrality of the Bosnian Crisis and the Balkan Wars of the early twentieth century to European power politics, while explaining how Serbs, Bosnians, and Habsburg leaders negotiated their positions in a dangerous geopolitical environment. Despite the absence of evidence tying official Serbia to the assassination conspiracy, Miller-Melamed shows how it spiraled into a diplomatic crisis that European statesmen proved unable to resolve peacefully. 
     
     
     
    Contrasting the vast disproportionality between a single deadly act and an act of war that would leave ten million dead, Misfire contends that the real causes for the world war lie in "civilized" Europe rather than the endlessly discussed political murder.
