Summary

Have you ever realized that your mind is always most relaxed when you prepare to go to sleep? Your night will be disturbed and troubled if you go to bed weighed down by the hassles of daily life.Imagine reading a book to help you fall asleep…. Did you know that your mind is most relaxed at the time you prepare to go to bed? This is also the moment when it is at its most receptive state and best able to assimilate information. Your night will end up disturbed and cumbersome if you go to sleep weighed down by the burdens of daily life. 
On the other hand, your sleep will be peaceful and you will be well rested if you go to bed with a light head. The main aim of this book is thus to offer you short, simple stories and tales that will help you to forget for a moment the stresses of the world, from others, as well as your own. 
The purpose of these tales is to take you back to experiences that, due to the demands of modern life, are most of the time pushed to the back of the mind. 
Deliberate efforts have been made for the positive impacts of this book to be as close to our real lives as possible: the fears, all sorts of temptations, including the burdens of daily life that hang over our shoulders. There is always this quiet inner voice that does not leave us at peace.
To sum it up, there are so many underlying mental processes that contribute to the “rot” in our lives. 
Fortunately, there are many positive illustrations for giving the mind a state of calm and tranquility, and which have enabled us to better understand these processes that otherwise would tear us apart.PUBLISHER: TEKTIME

    The tireless resistance of local communities fighting for ownership of America's third largest water system 
     
     
      
    Toxic Water, Toxic System exposes the consequences of a seemingly anonymous authoritarian state willing to maintain white supremacy at any cost—including poisoning an entire city and shutting off water to thousands of people. Weaving together narratives of frontline activists along with archival data, Michael Mascarenhas provides a powerful exploration of the political alliances and bureaucratic mechanisms that uphold inequality. 
     
     
      
    Drawing from three years of ethnographic fieldwork in Flint and Detroit, this book amplifies the voices of marginalized communities, particularly African American women, whose perspectives and labor have been consistently overlooked. Toxic Water, Toxic System offers a fresh perspective on the ties between urban austerity policies, environmental harm, and the advancement of white supremacist agendas in predominantly Black and brown cities.

    The power of Colette's work comes from its modernist storytelling. 
     
     
     
    Colette was a pioneering, groundbreaking modernist writer, but has not always had her originality and worth recognized in Britain. Her work provocatively uses unstable narratives, gaps, silences, fairytale, mythical tropes, and sensual evocations of childhood, sex, and landscapes. 
     
     
     
    In this book, Michèle Roberts examines how Colette invents new forms to express her unsettling content on desire, perversion, aging, and different forms of love. Delving into four key texts, Roberts explores Colette's willingness to break open taboos about older woman and desire, as well as hidden and forbidden aspects of human longings and pleasures. 
     
     
     
    Through these re-readings, Roberts discovers that Colette's work is even more entrancing, more disturbing, and more original than she first thought.
