  A heartfelt and incredibly funny memoir about love, life and fortune. 
   
  Thirteen years ago, a shopfront psychic told me my vagina was cursed. She was a scam artist, but she was also right. The stories in this book follow the different forms this curse has taken and how it foiled me as I travelled the world looking for love.?They?are personal and very specific stories about sex, dating, marriage and motherhood.??And about how sometimes the things that alter our paths lead us to the right place.? 
   
  What happens when a shopfront psychic tells Lally Katz her vagina is cursed? Is it a terrible scam or has a truth been spoken? 
   
  In My Cursed Vagina Lally shares the many forms this hex takes as she travels the world looking for love, compulsively writing down everything as she goes. These are hilarious and heartbreaking stories of disastrous dates, hopeful sex, straight-talking friendships, a surprise marriage, the adventure of motherhood and the strange gifts of illness, by a woman who embraces everything life has to offer. Importantly, this is a story about how sometimes the unexpected leads us to the place we should land. 
   
  'In this memoir, Lally takes the reader on a drunken, dare-devil ride into the depths of dramaturgy and disease. A poetic, no-nonsense reflection on a full creative life that may have only just begun, Lally's first book made me want to go back to whom I used to be. If you love TMI then this book is for you.' BRENDAN COWELL 
   
  'This is gold. There is only one Lally Katz.' CLAUDIA KARVAN 
   
  'Katz's book is completely addictive and mystical, just like her perspective on the world ... and her vagina.' YAEL STONE 
   
  'I only wish every book gave me as much pleasure as this one. Lally Katz is an original—the queen of TMI—and My Cursed Vagina is hilarious, fearless, and perfectly, absurdly candid. Is it wrong to hope for more drama in her life, just so she'll write a sequel?' STEVE TOLTZ

  Tracking Giants - Big Trees Tiny...

  Amanda Lewis, Dr. Diana...

  • 0

  Amanda Lewis was an overachieving, burned-out book editor most familiar with trees as dead blocks of paper. A dedicated "indoorswoman," she could barely tell a birch from a beech. But that didn't stop her from pledging to visit all of the biggest trees in British Columbia, a Canadian province known for its rugged terrain and gigantic trees. 
   
   
   
  The "Champion" trees on Lewis's ambitious list ranged from mighty Western red cedars to towering arbutus. The only problem? Well, there were many . . . 
   
   
   
  Climate change and a pandemic aside, Lewis's lack of wilderness experience, the upsetting reality of old-growth logging, the ever-changing nature of trees, and the pressures of her one-year time frame complicated her quest. Burned out again—and realizing that her "checklist" approach to life might be the problem—she reframed her search for trees to something humbler and more meaningful: getting to know forests in an interconnected way. 
   
   
   
  Weaving in insights from writers and artists, Lewis uncovers what we're really after when we pursue the big things—revealing that sometimes it's the smaller joys, the mindsets we have, and the companions we're with that make us feel more connected to the natural world.

  The Morals of Diet - The First Step

  Leo Tolstoy

  Written in 1892, during the later years of his life, Leo Tolstoy’s The Morals of Diet reflects the profound spiritual transformation that reshaped his outlook after Anna Karenina and War and Peace. In the decades following his literary success, Tolstoy underwent a moral and religious awakening, renouncing wealth, privilege, and the comforts of aristocratic life. He sought a simpler, purer existence grounded in truth, humility, and nonviolence. This period gave rise to his moral essays — What I Believe, The Kingdom of God Is Within You, and The Morals of Diet (The First Step) — in which he strove to align daily actions with spiritual conscience. 
  The First Step emerges from this search for ethical coherence. Ostensibly an essay about vegetarianism, it is in fact a meditation on the nature of moral progress and the necessity of compassion. Tolstoy argues that abstaining from the killing of animals is the first, most tangible act of moral purification — “the first step” toward a life of genuine goodness. For him, cruelty, however subtle or socially accepted, degrades the human spirit. To refrain from violence, even in small forms, is to begin transforming one’s relationship to all living beings.
