Ahn In-sook, herself translated 92 poems on her first collection of poems. In the poet's words, she said that she faced painful but joyful moments while translating every poem. Each poem including her tears and laughter leaves a touching aftertaste with a balance of understated language and emotions. She captures the joys and sorrows of everyday life, and ordinary but special aspects of life and uses them as a subject of poetry as if talking with a friendly friend. The collection of poems is all in English, and the Korean version can refer to OsongForest's 『그녀가 피아노 치는 이유』.

Estlyn is good at cutting deals. The one she’s working on now will get her a clean criminal record—and get her brother and incarcerated father off the hook, too. The only problem is, she’s going to have to orchestrate a murder to get it done. Gavin Young wants to be governor of California, and he wants it so badly that he’s willing to do anything to win. Estlyn’s job is pretty straightforward: make Young look like the better candidate. But to do that, she’ll have to frame an acquitted man for a gruesome double homicide. Young will present himself as the tough-on-crime candidate, righting society’s wrong… and then Estlyn’s family will be free. But first, she has to produce two dead bodies and a felon's prints on the murder weapon. It’s a conscience-wrenching assignment. To make matters worse, she’ll have to reach out to a contact from her past—one she hoped she’d never have to see again. IF SHE PLAYS HIS GAME is the second book in the engaging New Adult series AFTER TWELVE by author Laney Wylde. Perfect for fans of THE HATE YOU GIVE by Angie Thomas, and television shows like REVENGE, SCANDAL, and VERONICA MARS, the AFTER TWELVE Series is a gritty social-issue drama that delivers steamy romance, intrigue, and the most bittersweet revenge plots. Estlyn's determination to right every wrong is sure to quench your thirst for justice, yet leave you wanting more.

An important new voice provides a riveting look at why video games need feminism and why all of us should make space for more play in our lives. "You play like a girl": it's meant to be an insult, accusing a player of subpar, un-fun playing. If you're a girl, and you grow up, do you "play like a woman"--whatever that means? In this provocative and enlightening book, Shira Chess urges us to play like feminists. Furthermore, she urges us to play video games like feminists. Playing like a feminist is empowering and disruptive; it exceeds the boundaries of gender yet still advocates for gender equality. Feminism need video games as much as video games need feminism.

The uneasy relationship of two glamorous leading ladies living in the spotlight – Stars of Stage and Screen. They are sworn enemies whose lives have been in collision from their first meeting during World War Two as seven-year-old children in blitz ridden Hull until their uneasy reconciliation in their forties. The settings are real and so are some of the events, but all the characters are figments of my imagination which has been nourished by a lifetime in the business known as show. ‘You must get over this antagonism to Jessica. Nobody else has a problem with her. She is one of the most popular ladies in the business.’ ‘Huh, nobody has known her as long as I have.’ ‘That is as maybe. But you are hardly as high in the popularity stakes.’ Maxine shrugged. ‘I’m not in the business to be popular.’ ‘Then that is a problem. You really should be a little more careful. Actors have ways of destroying those who are dismissive of them. They can ruin your performance in ways you will never understand.’ ‘It’s very kind of you Stanley to take such trouble over me but I have never kowtowed to anyone in my life and I’m not about to start now.’ ‘Then you may just find you are out of a job. Amy is learning your part – right now as we speak.’

A valuable survey and reference resource It is hard to imagine a more needed and more useful literary reference work than this one, which gives students and readers quick access to the lives and work of a wide range of notable female writers from England and the Continent, from Aphra Behn to Emily Bronte, from Simone de Beauvoir to Isak Dinesen, from Bridget of Sweden to Hannah Arendt. Writers in more than 30 languages are included: French, Czech, Greek, Italian, Swedish, Spanish, German, Russian, Portuguese, Serbian, Catalan, Arabic, Hebrew, Dutch, Bulgarian, Croatian, Slovak, and more. Covers 1,500 years and all major genres Going back 15 centuries, the Encyclopedia covers the authors of novels, short stories, poetry, plays, criticism, social commentary, feminist manifestos, romances, mysteries, memoirs, children's literature, biography, and other genres. In signed entries, some of which are mini-essays, experts in the field examine writers' lives and achievements, comment on individual works, place artistic efforts in historical context, provide insights and analyses, and present more information than can be easily found elsewhere without undertaking more exhaustive research. Each entry is followed by a bibliography of primary works. Indexed by language, nationality, genre, and century. Spotlights the interesting lives of notable writers In these pages students and readers will meet hundreds of interesting women writers who made lasting contributions to the intellectual and popular culture of their countries while often leading fascinating lives, among them: * AGATHA CHRISTIE , who wrote her first book in response to her sister's demand for a detective story that was harder to solve than the popular fiction of her day, and whose work has been translated in more languages than Shakespeare's. * HILDEGARD VON BINGEN , the 12th-century German mystic, who wrote profusely as a prophet, a poet, a dramatist, a physician, and a political moralist, often communicated with popes and princes, and exerted a tremendous influence on the Western Europe of her time * MARY WOLLSTONECRAFT SHELLEY, whose 1818 masterpiece Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus became a literary sensation around the world * ILSE BLUMENTHAL-WEISS, one of the few concentration camp survivors to memorialize the victims of the Holocaust in German verse * LINA WERTMULLER, who in addition to her work in films, has written plays for the stage and a novel, and who once was a member of a short-lived puppet theater that staged the works of Kafka. Special features: Ideal for quick reference and student research * Multicultural-covers over 30 languages and 15 centuries * Includes many contemporary writers * Provides essential biographic data on each writer * Each entry is followed by a chronological listing of the writer's published book-length works * Offers critical evaluations of major works * Indexes help find writers by country...research by time period...survey genres...focus on languages
