  My Secret Life Vol 7 Chapter 10

  My Secret Life is an anonymously penned memoir written during a period from the 1840s to the 1880s by a wealthy and sex obsessed English gentleman who refers to himself simply as ‘Walter’. Part confessional, part investigative erotic journalism, it meticulously documents every detail of the author’s prolific sexual encounters, offering us in the process an eye and thigh opening account of life behind closed doors in the Victorian age.
  
  Women, in both mind and body, were the all consuming object of Walter’s interest. From early youth through to old age his quest for erotic discovery and adventure with them was never diminished.
  
  Unlike contemporary 19th century erotic texts, such as The Pearl, whose sole object was to titillate, Walter’s interest in his subjects did not end with the extinguishing of the carnal flame. His hunger to understand the circumstances and minds of the women he encountered is never upstaged by the sex. Their potted life histories, their most intimate desires and acts were shared with him and in turn meticulously recorded by him, written down verbatim while still fresh in his mind.
  
  The resulting poignant record of a lost era and the intimate moments of the women who inhabited it offer us a remarkable insight into the 19th century that cannot be gleaned from any other source.
  
  The complete unabridged text is being released as a fully scored audiofilm (an audio book with accompanying music soundtrack) by film composer Dominic Crawford Collins.

  This collection of tales is Kim Francisco's memories of his first summer working for the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Commercial Fisheries Division in the Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim Region. His experiences ranged from the mundane to life-threatening, comical to tragic. He found it so satisfying it led to a lifelong career in natural resource management. These events primarily occurred in 1973; however, the timeline occasionally jumps to tell the whole story. Fish are notoriously challenging to persuade; fisheries management mainly deals with people. In Alaska's diverse cultural environment, interacting with people was always interesting. Life-long friendships are formed, and every twenty-one-year-old has romance in their life.

  -- 
  “That, dear reader, is what happens when you let your blind spots get the best of you.” 
  One day you’re on top of the world, the next you’re chained in a jail cell on Rikers Island. It turns out that actions have consequences. 
  Gregory Blotnick lived a life of excess, spending money as fast as he could make it. At age thirty, he had everything a man could ever want. It still wasn’t enough. Driven by unchecked ambition and vainglory, he risked it all on himself with no plan B. . . only to discover what happens when burning the boats goes horribly wrong. Each time he thought he'd hit rock bottom, an even rockier bottom laid in wait beneath it. But just when he thought that he’d lost everything a man can possibly lose, he found what really matters. 
  Written from two jails and a rehab clinic, Blind Spots is a shocking, dark and searingly honest memoir, a rollercoaster of decadent highs and soul-crushing lows, and a cautionary tale of how your greatest weakness is always your greatest strength taken too far.

  Kierkegaard's Muse - The Mystery...

  The first biography of Kierkegaard's literary muse and one-time fiancée, from the author of the definitive biography of the philosopherKierkegaard's Muse, the first biography of Regine Olsen (1822–1904), the literary inspiration and one-time fiancée of Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard, is a moving portrait of a long romantic fever that had momentous literary consequences. Drawing on more than one hundred previously unknown letters by Regine that acclaimed Kierkegaard biographer Joakim Garff discovered by chance, the book tells the story of Kierkegaard and Regine's mysterious relationship more fully and vividly than ever before, shedding new light on her influence on his life and writings.Like Dante's Beatrice, Regine is one of the great muses of literary history. Kierkegaard proposed to her in 1840, but broke off the engagement a year later. After their break, they saw each other strikingly often, inside dimly lit churches, on the streets of Copenhagen, and on the paths along the old city ramparts, passing by without uttering a word.Despite or because of their separation in life, Kierkegaard made Regine his literary life companion, "that single individual" to whom he dedicated all his works. Garff shows how Regine became a poetic presence in the frequent erotic conflicts found throughout Kierkegaard's writings, from the famous "Seducer's Diary" account of their relationship to diary entries made shortly before his death in 1855. In turn, Regine remained preoccupied with Kierkegaard until her own death almost fifty years later, and her newly discovered letters, written to her sister Cornelia, reveal for the first time a woman of flesh and blood.A psychologically acute narrative that is as gripping as a novel, Kierkegaard's Muse is an unforgettable account of a wild, strange, and poignant romance that made an indelible mark on literary history.Some images inside the book are unavailable due to digital copyright restrictions.
