Rupture in the Canvas is a teaching memoir written not only for those who have experienced one or more life "Ruptures" — those heart-stopping, mind-blowing events that leave us severed from all our identity touchstones — but for those who have been propelled by such disruptions to understand them within the wider context of their lives. It is written for listeners who want to learn how to reorient themselves to the foreign and unexpected territory they now find themselves in.

In 1931, the discovery of human remains packed into railway trunks sent shockwaves across the United States. The crime was horrifying. The response was swift. And the woman at the centre of it all, Winnie Ruth Judd, was sentenced to die. What followed was not justice as the public imagined it, but a long institutional reckoning. The Trunk Murders is a work of historical true crime that moves beyond lurid retellings to examine what happened after conviction: the death sentence the state could not carry out, the declaration of insanity that spared Judd’s life, decades of psychiatric ...

"Something is wrong. I know it the moment I see Mum at school pickup."

“Mujer, la dignidad no se negocia. Verdades que aprendes cuando dejas de suplicar afecto” es un libro que no intenta endulzar la herida ni romantizar el sacrificio. Es una obra honesta, valiente y necesaria, escrita para mujeres que han amado de verdad… y que también han aprendido, a veces con dolor, que amar no debería costar la pérdida de una misma. Este libro nace del cansancio profundo de sostener vínculos desiguales, de justificar ausencias, de perdonar lo imperdonable y de llamar “amor” a lo que en realidad era miedo a quedarse sola. No habla desde el rencor, sino desde ...

A boarding house promised safety. Inside, people disappeared. In Sacramento, Dorothea Puente took in vulnerable tenants — elderly, disabled, and isolated — then quietly redirected their benefits and erased them from view. For years, the system accepted her explanations. Then bodies were found buried behind the house.

A true-crime manuscript about greed, control, and what happens when disappearance becomes normal.

She covered for him, called his boss, cleaned up the mess. She learned to answer accusations that made no sense with arguments that changed nothing. What she didn't see for years: the patterns were in the words. In how they fought. In how they went silent. In how she explained and justified and helped until helping became its own trap. When she finally left, she expected him to fall apart. He got sober instead. Today they're close ...

Versailles raised her in mirrors—then the Revolution taught her what stone can do to a girl. Marie-Thérèse Charlotte, Madame Royale, was born into silk, ceremony, and a world that believed itself permanent.

In Madame Royale: Daughter of Versailles, Prisoner of France, Alana Sanchez follows the forgotten survivor of the French Revolution—not as a footnote to famous parents, but ...

Life later disrupted her plans through financial instability, academic setbacks, illness, and years that...

By the 1850s, the workhouse no longer proves itself. The experiment is over. The system continues. This second volume traces a decade inside Southwell Workhouse where hardship becomes routine and “proper management” becomes a language of control. Through dietaries that regulate hunger, classifications that decide fate, labour imposed as a test, punishment administered as procedure, and medical care weighed against cost, the workhouse is shown not as a moment of crisis, but as an institution made ordinary. Ordinary rules. Hard realities. Last resort.
