DOWNLOAD EBOOK'Asylum-seeker'; refugee'. All the major British political parties have brought these words to the top of the political agenda. Some newspapers shout about the swarms' of refugees arriving on our shores; others criticise our government's lack of humanitarian principles. But what do we know about the refugees themselves what it means to leave your home, your family, your past? Rose George has travelled to Liberia and Ivory Coast and also met refugees in Britain to discover what really happens when you are uprooted by war, greed and guns, or - as Liberians put it - when you've been 'running, running, running' for fourteen years non-stop; when you've rebuilt your house five times, and its been looted six times, so you don't bother putting glass in the windows any more; when, like Francis Flade Nemlin, you're a well paid NGO worker one minute, and a refugee in a transit centre with sixteen dependants only two weeks later. 'Anyone can become a refugee, ' he says. 'Why not?' Challenging the preconceptions of both sides of the political establishment, A Life Removed is a searing indictment of our failure to empathize.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn A Nervous State, Nancy Rose Hunt considers the afterlives of violence and harm in King Leopold’s Congo Free State. Discarding catastrophe as narrative form, she instead brings alive a history of colonial nervousness. This mood suffused medical investigations, security operations, and vernacular healing movements. With a heuristic of two colonial states—one "nervous," one biopolitical—the analysis alternates between medical research into birthrates, gonorrhea, and childlessness and the securitization of subaltern "therapeutic insurgencies." By the time of Belgian Congo’s famed postwar developmentalist schemes, a shining infertility clinic stood near a bleak penal colony, both sited where a notorious Leopoldian rubber company once enabled rape and mutilation. Hunt’s history bursts with layers of perceptibility and song, conveying everyday surfaces and daydreams of subalterns and colonials alike. Congolese endured and evaded forced labor and medical and security screening. Quick-witted, they stirred unease through healing, wonder, memory, and dance. This capacious medical history sheds light on Congolese sexual and musical economies, on practices of distraction, urbanity, and hedonism. Drawing on theoretical concepts from Georges Canguilhem, Georges Balandier, and Gaston Bachelard, Hunt provides a bold new framework for teasing out the complexities of colonial history.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLife is perfect for Freya Rose. She has a gorgeous boyfriend, a loving mother... Oh, and her very own stalker... Okay, so maybe Freya's life isn't quite as perfect as she thought. There is more to the picturesque town of Jasper, Alberta than meets the eye. The residents quiet, and laid back demeanors perfectly disguise an extraordinary community of werewolves, vampires, and hunters. When Freya is finally able to see beyond the secrets, she is introduced to a supernatural world full of temptation, power, and love rivals. Freya's relationship with Tristan struggles to make it past all of the lies and secrets, so when a mysterious stranger strolls into her life, will she be able to resist his seductive charms? The biggest question is, how will she react when she discovers that she belongs in this new world, far more than she ever realized. This book contains adult themes, therefore 18+ is advised. This story ends in a cliffhanger, and is then continued in Abandoned By An Alpha. There may be some triggers in this book, ie, stalking, murder, adultery, and hunks that might melt your clothes off. The series as a whole, has a reverse harem feel to it, but Freya does not entertain all of the guys at once. That being said, there are a few scenes where more than one guy is involved, so be prepared. Lastly, if you would like to follow me, I can be found on Facebook (L.P. Dillon) or at Author L.P.Dillon's Divas on Facebook. I'm also on Twitter and Instagram occasionally, and my Freya Rose series can be found on Radish. Ps. I'm sorry that you're hanging by your fingertips on that cliff edge, I'll send one of Freya's guys along to save you soon xxx
