They Were Promised A Home Beta wolves. Powerful, dominant wolves banished by their birth packs because they were a threat to their pack Alphas. Cast out as lone wolves, they drifted, solitary yet belonging to a species that yearned to belong. Some found a place in the military. Some found other places. But there was always the danger of the first rule — do nothing that reveals shifters to humans. Betas who did, found an enforcer on their doorstep. And then, a pack rose up on Hat Island, home to Yui Ito, and her mate Okami Yoshida. The pack there had been killed off during World War II, all but Yui. For 80 years there had been no pack on Hat Island. And now there was. A female Alpha had called a pack into being. And the word came. Yui was calling the betas home. They were owed. There was a pack that would accept them — if they wanted one. There was nothing a beta wanted more than that — to belong to a pack, to know that there were people who had your back. Nothing. Come to Wolf Harbor, a paranormal suspense series, featuring strong women, sexy men, and wolves.

What is autobiography and how does it transform in the age of technological reproducibility? Katja Haustein discusses this question as it relates to photography and the role of emotion in Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time (1909-22), Walter Benjamin's Berlin Childhood around 1900 (1932-38), and Roland Barthes's Roland Barthes (1977) and Camera Lucida (1980). In her close critical readings, Haustein provides the first comprehensive comparative analysis of these popular works, mapping them against little-studied textual, visual and aural material, some of which has only recently become accessible. In this way, her book opens new avenues in scholarship dedicated to three outstanding twentieth-century writers and contributes to a field of critical inquiry that is still in the making: the history of autobiography in the light of a history of the gaze.
