Book Description
The political hypocrisy and personal horrors of one of the most repressive anti-abortion regimes in history came to the world's attention soon after the fall of Romanian dictator Nicolae Ceausescu. Photographs of orphans with vacant eyes, sad faces, and wasted bodies circled the globe, as did alarming maternal mortality statistics and heart-breaking details of a devastating infant AIDS epidemic. Gail Kligman's chilling ethnography—of the state and of the politics of reproduction—is the first in-depth examination of this extreme case of political intervention into the most intimate aspects of everyday life. Ceausescu's reproductive policies, among which the banning of abortion was central, affected the physical and emotional well-being not only of individual men, women, children, and families but also of society as a whole. Sexuality, intimacy, and fertility control were fraught with fear, which permeated daily life and took a heavy moral toll as lying and dissimulation transformed both individuals and the state. This powerful study is based on moving interviews with women and physicians as well as on documentary and archival material. In addition to discussing the social implications and human costs of restrictive reproductive legislation, Kligman explores the means by which reproductive issues become embedded in national and international agendas. She concludes with a review of the lessons the rest of the world can learn from Romania's tragic experience.

Book Description
Fate and a Fulbright grant allowed my world to collide with that of this collection’s author. Jo and I met through a friend of a friend while I was teaching English in a remote city on the island of Borneo. We became fast friends, and I was honored when she asked me if I would edit her poetry. When she told me about her goal to write 100 poems in her second language in the span of only a few months, I was blown away. As the poems steadily arrived in my inbox for revision, I had an opportunity to see the fruit of so much personal reflection I have come to associate with Jo. I found her candor, hope, heartbreak, love, and longing to be tangible when we spoke in person about everything and nothing. Reading her poetry, I had the pleasure of exploring those same emotions further through her writing. The basic, innate human cravings for love, acknowledgement, friendship, and communion are highlighted in Jo’s collection of poems, Sweet & Bitter Memory. In this compilation of thoughts, reflections, and dreams, we simultaneously explore Jo’s experience with and projections of love. She bares her wounds, unanswered questions, and disappointments on one page, while exposing her innocence, idealism, and deep belief in the power of romance on the next. These poems account, for the good, the bad, and the transcendental moments in love and relationships. Her work leaves us wondering where the true nature of love lies or if there is really such a thing. I am moved by the universality of love and the catholic yearning for connection and relationship. One of the most powerful aspects of this compilation of poetry is its potential reach. Publishing the book in English opens doors for Jo and her writing, as well as providing audiences around the world with the ability to examine the heart of a young Indonesian woman through her poetry. What we learn from Jo is a lesson not soon forgotten. Her hopes, dreams, and disappointments are unique yet deeply rooted in the human experience. As readers, we can tap into this duality and acknowledge the interconnection of people from seemingly disparate backgrounds. It has been a pleasure editing these poems and working with Jo to produce a literary work that can have a real impact on real lives. I look forward to seeing what is next professionally and personally for our author. I have a feeling there will be many more wonderful literary works in our future. Enjoy the wonderful opportunity this book presents – getting to know an ambitious, sweet, intelligent, humble human being.

Book Description
Multiple personalities take over Sarah's mind...only so they can protect her. Abducted by her father when she was three years old, Sarah found herself in a world of criminal neglect and unfathomable oppression as her father, stepmother and many others perpetrated more and more horrible acts of verbal, mental and sexual abuse on the innocent girl. Sarah, so continually terrified, began to form separate personalities so that she herself did not have to face the hideous reality of her day to day life. In nightmares, the other personalities would present to her the horrific abuse she was being subjected to, blocking out time for Sarah, bearing the horror of the experiences themselves so their dear Sarah would not have to. Although the names in this unforgettable story have been changed from those in real life, the horrors that occurred are factual. This tale of the author's early life is a true and unnervingly gripping account of the extremes of neglect and mistreatment a child can undergo-and still survive. Told from the heart, "Bitter Memories" is dedicated to all survivors of abuse; written in the hope that exposing these horrors will help prevent them from happening to others, and that more survivors will find a path toward healing. Contains adult language and graphic content.
