My Story

Untitled 122395

What is a meaningful life? What does it mean to flourish? Antonia Case, the co-founder of New Philosopher and Womankind magazines, quits her corporate job in the city and, with her partner, travels across the world in search of meaning. In a quest to find answers, she turns off the soundtrack of the media, rids herself of technology, and with little more than books as carry-on luggage, she journeys from Buenos Aires to Paris, from Barcelona to Byron Bay, seeking guidance from ancient philosophers and modern-day psychologists on what is a good life, and what is a life worth living. Along the way she discovers why winning the lottery doesn't make you happy, why making is better than having, and how love and belonging are vital to our sense of selves. Packed with insight into life's big questions, Flourish will take you on a riveting journey in search of what matters most.

Unless I am allowed to tell the story of my life in my own way, I cannot tell it at all.Mary Seacole - traveller, nurse, businesswoman and radical for her time - defied a prejudiced British government to care for soldiers wounded during the Crimean War.This ground breaking account, written by Seacole in 1857, brings to life her incredible journey from Jamaica to Central America and England, and then on to modern-day Ukraine, where she acted as nurse to injured soldiers while running her business, the 'British Hotel'. A witness to key battles, she gives vivid accounts of how she coped with disease, bombardment and other adversities during the Crimean War.In this extraordinary autobiography, Seacole shows how she navigated her way through racial injustice, poverty and ignorance to become the first woman of colour in Britain to publish her memoirs. It is a testament to her enduring legacy.

The Wonderful Adventures of Mrs Seacole in Many Lands

From the Samuel Johnson Prize shortlisted author, a powerful literary memoir about life in rural Nairobi, one of the last true wildernesses of the world. Aidan Hartley grew up in Kenya, moving from farm to farm across Africa with his family. As an adult he moved to England to study, then became a war correspondent in Africa, and then, when he couldn't resist it any longer, a farmer in his own right. Aidan's farm today sits in view of the Kenyan Mountain. His work is dosing sheep, dipping cattle, fixing machinery, responding to the night alarms of rustlers entering the valley on elephant raids. Living here, injury means relying on a manual called Where There is No Doctor, and the home medicine chest complete with blood coagulants for gunshot wounds. Laikipia is a beautiful, wild place. Sometimes peaceful, and sometimes dangerous. It is also a landscape tragically at risk. Across the course of Aidan's life, the nature around him has changed. The wild hunting dog, cheetah, rhinos, elephants - even the giraffe and lion - face oblivion. Whole forests have been torn down. Kenya Mountain on the horizon is losing its tropical icefields - they will be gone in a handful of years. Paradise of Thorns is a restlessly inventive literary memoir: the story of Aidan's departure from cities and the irresistible move back to his real home. It is part glorious testament to the extraordinary heart of rural Africa as a place which is fast becoming lost; part antidote to the false impressions imposed on the country over the years; and part adventure story of drug trade, cattle raids, gunfights, tragic losses, ambushes, posses and battles.

Paradise of Thorns

From a fearless comic known for tackling uncomfortable topics, a revealing and subversive memoir that explores Bowers’ life from his difficult childhood in Georgia up to his rise in the LA comedy world &nbsp; Byron Bowers is often referred to as a Comics’ Comic. A veteran stand-up comedian and actor, he's known for gripping material covering spirituality, race, socioeconomics, gender roles—and for delivering a fair chunk of it unrehearsed and in the moment. But though his life today may seem promising, it wasn't always that way. After all, as Byron sees it, the best stand-ups spin comedy from their own perceptions of reality. and what better source material to mine than one's own struggles? Growing up as an&nbsp;illegitimate child in conservative Georgia, Byron was accustomed to instability, passed from parent to parent before eventually being taken in by his grandmother. While experiencing heavy bullying from children his community, he bussed into a white school and instantly became a target of racism. Meanwhile, trying to handle his father's diagnosis with paranoid-schizophrenia, for which he was institutionalized, and his subsequent drug addiction.&nbsp; Being left alone in the projects by his father, Byron realizing that the only person he could rely on was himself, Byron vowed to reshape his life—and get the hell out of Georgia.&nbsp; Willing to do whatever it took to make it out led to a basketball scholarship and set forth a new adventure—while also selling crack at a Christian university out of state. After being shot at and finding himself on the verge of either homicide or suicide, Byron stepped down as his college town's Second in Command and moved to Atlanta. Knowing business classes could foster a career in white-collar crime, he returned to college, becoming the first in his family to earn a degree. Upon graduation, Byron pursued stand-up comedy slowly moving up the ranks the Atlanta comedy scene due to his edginess. He decided to move to the West Coast to pursue comedy and became a regular performer at the hallowed Sunset Strip Comedy Store.&nbsp;From there, he evolved into a stand-out on the local stand-up scene, was the surprise winner of a strategic comedy competition, and even landed himself a few television credits—finally&nbsp;poised on the cusp of achieving success on his own terms. Beyond the Promised Land&nbsp;dismisses the conventional wisdom that reality’s rules can’t be rewritten. Ultimately, Byron's is a story that educates, enlightens, and inspires anyone who refuses to let adversity stand in the way of not only their dreams, but finding peace along the way. &nbsp;
