"Yvette Pleven, the protagonist of John Goulet's new novel is a kind of whacked-out contemporary Tocqueville in search of a new world who finds only paradox in her search for happiness and freedom. The six connected episodes in Yvette in America carry Yvette across the United States, from Boston to Colorado and California and finally to Milwaukee, in the often cold heart of her adopted country. By turns outrageous, funny, poignant, and sad, Yvette in America charts the spiritual journey of thousands who came to America expecting the promised land and found instead hustlers, con-men, and worse, eager to make profits from their dreams. Yet in the end Yvette not only makes peace but triumphs in a small way, which may be the only way one ever triumphs at all."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Desperate to save her life, Yvette returned to her hometown, Selma, Alabama. She sought help from her grandparents, and searched for Miss Christine, the lady who had played an important part in her childhood, a woman of faith and a clairvoyant. Could she possibly put an end to Bertha Mae’s ghost? A year had passed, and Yvette continued being haunted and violently beaten by her mother’s ghost in her sleep and even in broad daylight. Fearing for her life, Yvette’s days were nearly as horrible as her nights, merely existing, not knowing when Bertha Mae’s haint would appear in the ceiling, burst through the wall, sit on top of her while asleep, violently whip her, or choke her nearly to death. Filled with despair, at one point she nearly gave up, but was convinced to fight to save her life. She deserved to live and find happiness. But could she find the will to fight her mother’s haint? Would she survive?

‘Oh what a wonderful, heart breaking, stunning, beautiful story. This touched my heart, made me cry. Beautifully written. A masterpiece.’ NetGalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ St Lucia, 28 July 1961. The day my father and mother boarded a ship called the Carlotta C. The day my story began, the day my truth started to disappear… When Yvette receives a call saying her estranged father, Joe, is fighting for his life in hospital, she rushes to his side. She’s determined to have him back in her life and to forgive him for walking out on her and her mother so many years ago. But when she arrives she doesn’t find the larger-than-life father she remembers. Joe seems broken; haunted by the past. So, when he begs Yvette to help him find the truth, she knows she must… Since stepping off the ship that brought him with Yvette’s mother, Doli, from the sunny, picturesque island of St. Lucia, with its tranquil Caribbean seas and air fragrant with the scent of tropical fruits, to start new lives in a cold and unwelcoming Britain, Joe has carried a dark secret. For years, he’s believed he might have killed a man on the ship. A man who had had feelings for Doli too. A man who could perhaps help Yvette answer questions she didn’t even know needed answering. When she asks her mother for help with tracking him down, Doli is uncharacteristically quiet. Yvette wonders if finding the truth might break their relationship, but she can’t stop; daren’t let her papa down. As she sorts through old passports and shipping records, Yvette knows she has to unravel this secret history of love and betrayal, loyalty and sacrifice. Will uncovering the truth tear their fragile family apart or bring them back together? A heart-stopping debut novel about family, identity, secrets, lies, and the journeys that define us. Perfect for fans of Small Island and Girl, Woman, Other. Readers are loving This Other Island: ‘A beautiful debut… I was immediately swept up in the story and was totally captivated… There is so much to love about this book, it’s heart-breaking at times, uplifting at others, and just so beautifully written. A stunning read about family, about home and about love, I enjoyed it from start to finish and didn’t want it to end.’ Sibbz Reads ‘What a beautiful book! I enjoyed the heck outta this one! The writing was flawless. Characters amazing! I loved the setting! I just absolutely adored this one.’ Goodreads reviewer ‘A powerfully written and deeply affecting debut novel about love, family and identity readers won’t forget in a hurry… A heart-wrenching and beautifully layered page-turner that is thought-provoking, immensely emotional and highly charged… Will break readers’ hearts and have them crying their eyes out.’ Bookish Jottings ‘This Other Island is a beautiful debut novel – masterfully written and enchanting… Brought me to tears.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘Fascinating… A beautiful story that captures your attention and your heart from beginning to end.’ Victoria Wilks ‘An emotional rollercoaster... Thought provoking… There were times where I laughed, others where I was quite shocked and others where I was tearful so this is definitely a roller coaster ride of thoughts and emotions… Overall an emotionally charged novel that will keep you hooked throughout.’ Bookworm86

Through the voices of twenty-one women, Karen Way presents the most objective, complete, and compassionate picture of what anorexia nervosa is about and, more importantly, of the complex individual variables and obstacles in the journey to recovery. From the premise that anorexia nervosa is an addiction--an obsession controlling all aspects of an individual’s life--and that complete recovery is possible by finding meaning in life, this enlightening book contrasts sharply to other books written on the subject by clinicians and theorists which merely speculate on the nature and etiology of anorexia nervosa. Anorexia Nervosa and Recovery lets the reader hear the personal struggles of women who have fought this powerful disease. They describe how anorexia controlled their lives and how, once they overcame their obsessions with food, weight, and thinness, they were able to lead fulfilling lives. This illuminating book encourages and inspires women who are in the throes of anorexia nervosa. They will recognize the emptiness in the voices and the descriptions of daily life. Therapists and clinicians who treat anorexic women will find intriguing chapters on events which trigger anorexia and what anorexics will do to maintain their strategies for coping. Concerned friends and family and others interested in understanding this controlling disease will be enlightened from this important and helpful book.

This book expands the concept of homeplace with contemporary Black homeschooling positioned as a form of resistance among single Black mothers. Chapters explore each mother’s experience and unique context from their own perspectives in deciding to homeschool and developing their practice. It corroborates many of the issues that plague the education of Black children in America, including discipline disproportionality, frequent referrals to special education services, teachers’ low expectations, and the marginalization of Black parents as partners in traditional schools. This book demonstrates how single mothers experience the inequity in school choice policies and also provides an understanding of how single Black mothers experience home-school partnerships within traditional schools. Most importantly, this volume challenges stereotypical characterizations of who homeschools and why.
