Do I Feel Better Yet? by Madeleine Trebenski Pdf

If you've ever dared to express dissatisfaction with the state of your life, you've inevitably received a variety of helpful suggestions: "Have you tried meditation? Exercise? A cult?

In a playful and at times sardonic chronicle of the elusive promises of multistep skin-care routines, gratitude journaling, scented candles, and more, Trebenski perfectly captures what it's like to live in a time when homemade kombucha and weighted blankets are said to single-handedly solve all our problems. These essays will make you laugh, make you feel less alone, and maybe make you feel better—even if just for a little while.

A Journey Towards Endless Light Out Of Pitiless Darkness by Ray Orocco-John Pdf

This anthology fuses an array of poems and short stories, meticulously crafted over many years. It spans a diverse spectrum of themes—from the lighthearted whimsy of comedy to the profound depths of everyday human experiences. The author presents a distinctive perspective on biblical scriptures, enriching them with personal insights and reflections. Moreover, this collection acts as a reflective mirror, capturing the essence of pivotal events and characters that have left an indelible mark on the author’s life journey. In homage to the Bard, the author has skillfully crafted a series of sonnets that honor both the traditional Shakespearean style and the lyrical Italian form. Adding a touch of whimsy, the book includes a selection of limericks, initially penned in jest but now presented for the readers’ delight. The short stories explore themes of unrequited love, sacrifice, forgiveness, fractured vows, the resilience of the human spirit, the devastating impact of war on innocent children, heartbreak, resurgence, the fallibility of human judgment, enduring love, jealousy, and the pain of abandonment. Each story conveys a message that resonates deeply with the reader. The book’s title reflects the author’s transformative journey from the shadows of adversity to the radiant light of divine grace. This profound metamorphosis is delicately woven into the fabric of the poetry and prose, offering readers an intimate glimpse into the soul of a writer reborn. This work is the second installment in a series, following the author’s initial offering, “Of Sadness and Of Pleasure.”

Keys to Happiness by Анастасія Вербицкая Pdf

"This release is an important contribution to the literary discourse about women's lives, sexuality, politics and popular culture in early 20th-century Russia." --Publishers Weekly One of the most sensationally popular and influential of all pre-Revolutionary novels, Keys to Happiness is set against a panorama of Russian society on the eve of World War I. It tells the stormy tale of Manya Yeltsova, a Russian "new woman" who pursues her dreams and passions as a dancer and free spirit who captivates, among others, a Jewish socialist tycoon and a reactionary Russian nobleman. At the time of its publication, the novel crossed the boundaries of both gender and class to define a new type of literature in Russian society. The editors' informative introduction places the novel within its cultural, political, and social context and makes clear for today's readers its literary and historical importance.
