  A line of pain runs through generations of families… until one generation stops to question the ancestral forces behind the door. In Life & Fable Guislaine Vincent explores archetypal patterns in the ancestral background of her family's storytelling, peeling away the layers to discover a self in myth and fable. As the narrative unfolds, it's the implacable presence of childhood that recurs, not only in events, but in how events reveal the self. Mektoub, my father would say: it is written. From a great grandfather found in the deserts of Syria and named after the monastery that takes him in to the pain of losing a child; from a childhood of 14 schools across multiple countries to training as a Jungian Psychoanalyst, this is a life story that asks deep questions about who we are and how we peel back reality to find the truth in fables. A story of resilience and the epiphany of how powerful it is to have a name.

  'I entered Goldenbridge orphanage in my Communion outfit. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing there.'At age seven, Bernadette Fahy was delivered with her three brothers to Goldenbridge Orphanage. She was to stay there until she was sixteen.
  Goldenbridge has come to represent some of the worst aspects of childrearing practices in Ireland of the 1950s and 1960s. Seen as the offspring of people who had strayed from social respectability and religious standards, these children were made to pay for the 'sins' of their parents. Bernadette tells of the pain, fear, hunger, hard labour and isolation experienced in the orphanage.
  Can a person recover from such a childhood? How does the spirit ever take flight -- and gain the 'freedom of angels'?
  This is Bernadette Fahy's concern. Now trained and working as a counsellor, she has had to dig deeply into her past to understand the patterns laid down by her upbringing. She has had to rebuild her life, and now she helps others to do the same.
  This book is a story of triumph over the harshest of circumstances.

  Frederick Douglass 2 Complete...

  Frederick Douglass, born into slavery in Maryland in 1818, became one of the most prominent abolitionists, orators, and writers in American history. His life story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the pursuit of freedom. Douglass escaped slavery in his early twenties and dedicated his life to the abolitionist cause. Through his powerful speeches, autobiographical writings, and activism, he fought for the rights of African Americans and became a leading voice in the fight against slavery. 
   
  Douglass's legacy is rooted in his tireless efforts to expose the atrocities of slavery and advocate for equal rights. His first autobiography, "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave," published in 1845, vividly depicted the brutalities of slavery and its dehumanizing effects. The book became a bestseller and an influential tool in the abolitionist movement. Douglass went on to write two additional autobiographies, "My Bondage and My Freedom" (1855) and "Life and Times of Frederick Douglass" (1881), chronicling his life, experiences, and evolving viewpoints. His writings not only shed light on the horrors of slavery but also provided a platform for him to advocate for education, suffrage, and social justice. 
   
  In addition to his writings, Douglass's oratory skills captivated audiences and galvanized support for the abolitionist cause. He was a powerful and persuasive speaker, delivering speeches that stirred emotions, challenged societal norms, and demanded equality for all. His most famous speech, "What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?" delivered in 1852, remains a poignant critique of the hypocrisy of celebrating freedom while denying it to enslaved individuals.
