  The idea of sexual fluidity may seem new, but it is at least as old as the ancient Greeks, who wrote about queer experiences with remarkable frankness, wit, and insight. How to Be Queer is an infatuating collection of these writings about desire, love, and lust between men, between women, and between humans and gods, in lucid and lively new translations. 
   
   
   
  How to Be Queer starts with Homer's Iliad and moves through lyric poetry, tragedy, comedy, philosophy, and biography, drawing on a wide range of authors, including Sappho, Plato, Anacreon, Pindar, Theognis, Aristophanes, and Xenophon. It features both beautiful poetry and thought-provoking prose, emotional outpourings and humorous anecdotes. From Homer's story of the relationship between Achilles and Patroclus, one of the most intense between men in world literature, to Sappho's lyrics on the pleasures and pains of loving women, these writings show the many meanings of what the Greeks called eros. 
   
   
   
  Complete with brief introductions to the selections, How to Be Queer reveals what the Greeks knew long ago—that the erotic and queer are a source of life and a cause for celebration.

  The Dawn of Day 
   By Friedrich Nietzsche 
  What if the true dawn of humanity is not behind us, but still ahead? In The Dawn of Day, Nietzsche invites you to peer into the quiet moments before sunrise - where morality, truth, and belief begin to shift their shape. 
  Known as one of the most provocative minds in Western philosophy, Friedrich Nietzsche sought to untangle the inherited dogmas of his age. This work marks a turning point in his thought, foreshadowing the bold ideas of Thus Spoke Zarathustra and Beyond Good and Evil. Here, Nietzsche begins to question the foundations of religion, ethics, and self - urging readers to wake from the slumber of convention and to seek their own truths. 
  Explore entries that challenge the origins of conscience, dissect the psychology of altruism, and examine the hidden instincts that shape our so-called morality. Each aphorism opens a door - sometimes to wonder, sometimes to unease - but always toward deeper self-awareness. 
  More than a philosophical treatise, The Dawn of Day remains a timeless journey into the labyrinth of human nature. Nietzsche's insights continue to influence thinkers, artists, and seekers over a century later. His call for intellectual courage is as relevant now as ever. 
  This immersive audiobook experience, brought to life with crystal-clear AI narration, delivers Nietzsche’s words with precision and emotional nuance—inviting you to engage deeply, reflect boldly, and listen actively. 
  Dare to step into the shadows before sunrise. Buy now and awaken your own dawn of thought.

  Missy's Guide - How to transform...

  Weikel inspires readers to dance for the Lord in this debut Christian work.For a time when she was younger, Weikel turned to stripping to support herself and her daughter. The shame she felt—rooted in sexual abuse she suffered as a child—was so great, she needed to numb the pain with drinking and drugs. It could have been enough to keep Weikel from ever dancing again, but she found ways to overcome her fears and dance like no one was watching—well, except for one being. “There is nothing more powerful than dancing with our heavenly father,” writes Weikel in her introduction. “Feeling his presence and love as I move across the floor is the ultimate high. I finally shed the care about what others think and know how much God loves me.” With this book, Weikel hopes to help others who feel trepidation about dancing find their inner Ginger Rogers. Dance, according to the author, is a form of worship—one that doubles as a source of healing for the dancer. Through personal anecdotes, explorations of Scripture, and dance exercises, Weikel encourages her readers to leave it all on the dance floor at the next wedding they attend or even to enjoy a solo dance party in the mirror. Weikel’s prose is enthusiastic and mystical, full of accounts of personal rituals and attestations about hearing God: “Today as I lit the final fire of the year and began to think about how the seasons change, I was overwhelmed by what the Holy Spirit downloaded as I was sweeping up the mess that the wood and paper make. God said, ‘You are approaching a new season, and I know you have felt all over the place like all this dust and dirt you are sweeping.’ ” It’s a short book at only 50 pages (including several full-page black-and-white photos). While probably not for everyone, Weikel’s open-hearted, judgment-free approach will undoubtedly speak to certain Christian readers who want a bit more dancing in their lives.A slim, inspiring work rooted in the author’s practice of dance-as-worship.
