What would you do if faced with an invasion of your home/planet? That is what Nikita Markain Malin was forced to decide when on his way to meet his High King his peaceful world was turned upside down by the landing of a spaceship filled with other-worldly beings. First, can Niki find a way to make the new place he and all the other people on the planet Airies fled to into a home? Can he and his people find a way to keep hidden from the invaders? Then, what are those invaders doing? Who are they? Are Niki and his people safe where they now hide? Are the invaders going to remain where they landed on the planet? So many questions and so many answers to discover. Time is running out and Niki feels compelled to learn these answers as soon as he can.
Bestselling poet, writer, and Instagram sensation Nikita Gill returns with a collection of poetry and prose retelling the legends of the Goddesses, both great and small, in their own words. With lyrical prose and striking verse, beloved poet Nikita Gill (Fierce Fairytales, Wild Embers) uses the history of Ancient Greece and beyond to explore and share the stories of the mothers, warriors, creators, survivors, and destroyers who shook the world. In pieces that burn with empathy and admiration for these women, Gill unearths the power and glory of the very foundations of mythology and culture that have been too-often ignored or pushed aside. Complete with beautiful hand-drawn illustrations, Gill's poetry and stories weave old and forgotten tales of might and love into an empowering collection for the modern woman.
Poet, writer, and Instagram sensation Nikita Gill returns with a collection of fairytales poetically retold for a new generation of women. Traditional fairytales are rife with cliches and gender stereotypes: beautiful, silent princesses; ugly, jealous, and bitter villainesses; girls who need rescuing; and men who take all the glory. But in this rousing new prose and poetry collection, Nikita Gill gives Once Upon a Time a much-needed modern makeover. Through her gorgeous reimagining of fairytale classics and spellbinding original tales, she dismantles the old-fashioned tropes that have been ingrained in our minds. In this book, gone are the docile women and male saviors. Instead, lines blur between heroes and villains. You will meet fearless princesses, a new kind of wolf lurking in the concrete jungle, and an independent Gretel who can bring down monsters on her own. Complete with beautifully hand-drawn illustrations by Gill herself, Fierce Fairytales is an empowering collection of poems and stories for a new generation.
Punky Lucia Moberg turns sixteen in a week. She steals CDs from stores, argues with Mom, pines for the rebel boy next door. But adolescence ends fast in a mall parking lot when Luc's professor father is shot dead in an apparent botched stickup. The killer flees, and so ignites an inferno that will engulf all the women it touches: a mother whose domestic life is shrouded in darkness, a pregnant outlaw desperate for a secure life, a dogged family cop atoning for her own family's collapse, and Lucia herself, caught in the peril and violence that surrounds her.
A dazzling first novel about a math prodigy who is being groomed by her parents to attend Oxford at the age of fourteen, Gifted heralds the arrival of a remarkable new talent. Numbers have filled Rumi Vashey’s world since she first learned to count. But it was on a trip to India at the age of eight that her mathematical powers acquired their almost supernatural significance. At fourteen Rumi is firmly set on the path of a gifted child, speeding headlong towards Oxford University. As her father sees it, discipline is everything if the family is to have any hope of making its mark on its adoptive country. However, as Rumi gets older and the family’s stark isolation intensifies, numbers start to lose their magic for the young teenager: she abandons the rigid timetable of her afternoons and replaces equations with rampant spice abuse. As her longing for love and her parents’ will to succeed deepen so too does the rift between generations. Gifted captures brilliantly the battle to come of age in an emotional and comic hinterland, where histories, arithmetic and cumin seeds all play a part. In a voice that is by turns very funny and fiercely acute Lalwani vividly brings to life a young family’s search for recognition and how that search can break a family apart. A story of high aspirations and deep desires, and of the sometime loneliness of childhood, Gifted is a remarkably passionate, assured and accessible debut.
Survival sex, commonly understood to be the exchange of sex for material support, is a practice that is associated with young homeless women. However, such a narrow definition of survival sex fails to recognise the multiple, complex, and coexisting motivations of young homeless women for engaging in intimate relationships in post-industrial capitalist society. In Youth Homelessness and Survival Sex, Watson’s insightful analysis of personal narratives reveals how young homeless women are exposed to situations in which survival can be impeded or assisted by playing out specific gender roles. Indeed, in identifying and contesting the dominant social discourses that young homeless women draw upon to frame their experiences of intimate affairs, Watson challenges the reader to understand how gendered subjectivities are produced and performed through heteronormative relationships. This enlightening book is vital in showing that homelessness is not a gender-neutral phenomenon and that there are gender-specific processes and practices involved in the navigation of poverty, violence, and social exclusion. Youth Homelessness and Survival Sex will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as postdoctoral researchers, interested in fields such as Homelessness, Youth Studies, Social Work, and Gender Studies.
The Christian culture of Rus (the medieval precursor of modern Russia, Ukraine and Belarus) is sometimes presented either as a reflection of an indigenous spirituality wrapped in borrowed (Byzantine) forms or, by contrast, as merely a provincial version of its Byzantine original. The essays in this volume start from the premise that neither view is adequate. The history of culture - even of a self-consciously imitative culture - involves a continual process of inevitable 'mistranslation', as the imported models are reshaped and reinterpreted according to local resources, circumstances and preconceptions. These essays explore aspects of the 'translation of culture' on several levels: from the semantic processes of the actual translation of written texts from Greek into Slavonic, through to larger issues of ideology and identity. They consider both the initial stages of such 'translation' (from Byzantium to Rus) and some of the subsequent 'retranslations' of the Byzantine heritage in the culture of Rus and - eventually - of Russia.
Through Nikita s incredible journey, we are transported to a prehistoric world full of challenges and fascinating creatures. However, beyond the action and adventure, there are valuable lessons that Nikita shares with us, and I would like to highlight some of them. Nikita teaches us the importance of courage in the face of the unknown. She confronts dinosaurs and wild animals with determination, overcoming her fears and discovering her inner strength. This courage inspires us to face our own challenges, believe in ourselves, and find the necessary courage to move forward even when everything seems uncertain. Empathy is another fundamental value that Nikita shows us. She not only fights against the creatures of the jungle but also seeks to understand them and establish a connection with them. This empathy reminds us of the importance of putting ourselves in others shoes, practicing compassion, and valuing all forms of life that share our planet. Nikita teaches us about the importance of living in harmony with nature. She understands the interconnectedness of all living beings and the need to protect and preserve the environment. Her teachings invite us to reflect on our role as guardians of the Earth, encouraging us to adopt sustainable practices and take care of our precious planet for future generations. Furthermore, Nikita shows us the power of perseverance and determination. She faces constant obstacles and challenges but never gives up. Her resilience inspires us to persist in our goals even when things seem difficult. She reminds us that with effort and dedication, we can overcome any adversity. Finally, Nikita teaches us about the importance of family bonds. Despite her adventures and battles in the prehistoric jungle, her love for family always remains present in her heart. She reminds us that the love and support of those we care about are essential in our lives, and we should cherish and nurture those precious bonds. I hope that these teachings from Nikita inspire you, dear readers, to cultivate courage, empathy, harmony with nature, perseverance, and family bonds in your own lives. May Nikita s story serve as a constant reminder that even in the face of the greatest adversity, it is possible to find inner strength and live according to positive values. With gratitude, Felixxx A.I
