Book Description
Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window comes to mind when looking at Gail Albert Halaban's book of photographers of city dwellers peering into their neighbours' windows, Out My Window. The photographs are views across streets, alleyways and airshafts, peering through windows to reveal intimate portraits. These beautiful voyeuristic pictures capture both the intimacy and remoteness of living in proximity to so many strangers. Out My Window can be seen as an exploration of the contradictory impulses of metropolitan life: the desire to connect and the desire to be left alone.

Book Description
This is the story of an empty nester widow who decides to isolate not alone but with God at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. She has always thought a monastic life would be wonderful. She could shelter away from life, social responsibilities, and interruptions simply to study God's Word and to talk with Him. She is going on sabbatical. She has two Bible studies already started when the shutdown began and several studies she wants to pursue. She also journals and enjoys writing what she hears God telling her. She is in for a big surprise when God begins His lessons for her. There are wonderful things presented for her to learn, new revelations and thought-provoking information that had never occurred to her. There are also emotions, frustrations, and Satan's presence to throw her off. These are all met by God, showing her the way out. Even when she stumbles and weakens to despair or anger about the scene out her window, God takes the guilt from her and loves her. He is a merciful God. She learns of His holiness, grace, and mercy but also sees His working hand of judgment out the window as she watches the direction of the human race. She learns that mercy and judgment are in equal quantities as they exist together at the same time. True repentance is what changes judgment to mercy. Her lessons come daily, and she becomes a true disciple of Christ, taking in every word He speaks and asking questions in return. All that was needed was time alone, no distractions, and her full attention on God. The world grows dark out her window. And at first, it frightens her, but God shows her truths and reminds her of His plan. He prepares her to be a part of His plan and to eventually return to the world walking in that plan. The time is not yet, but it is coming, and she waits for it. 87

Book Description
"The purpose of this book is to teach young children primarily aged 5-12, their carers, teachers and therapists about the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) on their feelings, body, behaviour and thoughts about themselves. Educating parents, teachers, caregivers, and those who work with children, youth and traumatised adults about the stress model allows for therapeutic, compassionate and helpful conversations that remove blame and shame. There is less judgement, more cooperation, and greater safety for a child who is outside their window"--Publisher's website.

Book Description
Drawing on extensive interviews with ninety-four women prisoners, Megan Sweeney examines how incarcerated women use available reading materials to come to terms with their pasts, negotiate their present experiences, and reach toward different futures. Foregrounding the voices of African American women, Sweeney analyzes how prisoners read three popular genres: narratives of victimization, urban crime fiction, and self-help books. She outlines the history of reading and education in U.S. prisons, highlighting how the increasing dehumanization of prisoners has resulted in diminished prison libraries and restricted opportunities for reading. Although penal officials have sometimes endorsed reading as a means to control prisoners, Sweeney illuminates the resourceful ways in which prisoners educate and empower themselves through reading. Given the scarcity of counseling and education in prisons, women use books to make meaning from their experiences, to gain guidance and support, to experiment with new ways of being, and to maintain connections with the world.
