Wild Mule Tails

Cynthia Attar

Summary

Wild Mule Tails/Lessons from Mules is a humorous rendition of stories that landed in my lap through the years of working with mules. Sally the Wondermule my best friend for 27 years and I worked diligently on developing a mule comedy act and was even invited to perform at Bishop Mule Days, the biggest mule show in the world. The experience of this two-state trip ran the gamut from vehicle breakdowns, loss of all cash and credit cards, stage fright, and comedy failure. This event includes my total embarrassment and an array of high emotions with each challenge. Also, I share the story of three wild mule yearlings I bought to train and sell. In this overwhelming project, I document step by step "how-to" for successful mule groundwork, with a heavy emphasis on how the human needs to be when working with mules to solicit cooperation and willingness. Wild Mule Tails is a must read for all mule lovers.

Tender Betrayal

Rosanne Bittner

Stolen kisses and secret reunions lead to a passion that civil war cannot sever in this glorious historical romance from the bestselling author of Caress.   Beautiful, proud Audra Brennan feels like a stranger in a foreign land when she comes north from Louisiana to study music. But when she savors her first forbidden taste of desire in the arms of handsome lawyer Lee Jeffreys, his caresses spark a flame within her that burns away the differences between rebel and Yankee, all objections silenced by the fierce beating of two wild hearts falling impetuously, impossibly in love.   Suddenly cannon fire shatters the country. Principled, impassioned, and committed to a nation united, Lee answers the call to fight against the Confederacy, while Audra hurries home to a plantation shadowed by the darkening cloud of war. But in the most terrible of circumstances, can either afford to surrender their heart?   “Power, passion, tragedy and triumph are Rosanne Bittner’s hallmarks. Again and again, she brings readers to tears.” —RT Book Reviews

Hogg

Samuel R. Delany

The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.
