DOWNLOAD EBOOKPaper Mache Crown introduces the reader to a collection of poetry and prose about darkness and the undeniable fault in all of humanity. It follows the story of predator and prey and how they hunt each other from the house of butterflies over the eerie streets at night, to the slaughterhouse and way beyond. It explores their motivations and shows how each of them is more than capable of switching roles. As long as the prey perceives the predator for what it is, it is safe; but, as soon as the predator acknowledges that the prey is nothing more than prey, the predator's advantage is gone. It prompts humans to realise that something as frickle as the touch of rain can become their own enemy. Paper Mache Crowns intends to push them off their throne, into the mud.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSettle in and buckle up for unveiling to you an enlightening and captivating narrative about the trials and tribulations of cohabitation, or, as the Germans call it, Wohngemeinschaft. Not only a guide to survive in a communal living situation, but also a delightful companion for those new to this concept or who want to take a delightful plunge into the past. I explored all the variations during my WG-Odysee or call it an unintentional sociological study over 14 years: 2, 3, 4, 5, 11, and even 20-person Wohngemeinschaften in Zurich, Nizza, Ajaccio, Hamburg, Munich, Montpellier, Orléans, Alicante, Porto, Barcelona, Lund, and Basel. I was extremely privileged to reside within a dynamic community that consisted of a diverse array of individuals, including educators, culinary experts, medical professionals, scientific scholars, dreamers, biologists, as well as hotel managers. Truthfully thankful for these wonderful individuals who have enriched my life and inspired me to write this story.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAmong America's more interesting new religious movements, the Shakers and the Mormons came to be thought of as separate and distinct from mainstream Protestantism. Using archives and historical materials from the 19th century, Stephen C. Taysom shows how these groups actively maintained boundaries and created their own thriving, but insular communities. Taysom discovers a core of innovation deployed by both the Shakers and the Mormons through which they embraced their status as outsiders. Their marginalization was critical to their initial success. As he skillfully negotiates the differences between Shakers and Mormons, Taysom illuminates the characteristics which set these groups apart and helped them to become true religious dissenters.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom the bestselling, Booker Prize-winning author of The Sense of an Ending comes “a brilliant, rueful look at love—what we do for it, how we experience it and what makes it die” (People). One summer in the sixties, in a staid suburb south of London, nineteen-year-old Paul comes home from university and is urged by his mother to join the tennis club. There he’s partnered with Susan Macleod, a fine player who’s forty-eight, confident, witty, and married, with two nearly adult daughters. She is a warm companion, her bond with Paul immediate. And soon, inevitably, they are lovers. Basking in the glow of one another, they set up house together in London. Decades later, Paul looks back at how they fell in love and how—gradually, relentlessly—everything fell apart. As he turns over his only story in his mind, examining it from different vantage points, he finds himself confronted with the contradictions and slips of his own memory—and the ways in which our narratives and our lives shape one another. Poignant, vivid and profound, The Only Story is a searing novel of memory, devotion, and how first love fixes a life forever.
