Routledge Library Editions: Marriage

First published in 1974, Muriel Jones tells of how she came to start her married life in her 40s in Melanesia, of the impact of Christianity on a pagan people, and of their changing way of life. Her story takes one about as far as it is possible to go from an urban civilisation and reveals the resources of her own character.

Dinner for Vampires

'In my life, I have had three names. First I was Vic, then I was Gamal and then I became G. It took a long time before I was comfortable just being me.' Brought up as Vic with a white family in the rural suburbs of Kent, he was the only Black boy in his home and his town. Until one day he is collected by his Nigerian father, when he became Gamal, a Muslim and a boy who was now required to assimilate to entirely new world at the diverse heart of London. Eventually, he becomes G, the UK's first openly gay Black police officer, whose story was made into a BAFTA award winning documentary, The Black Cop.

Unravelling

Double Purity tells the moving story of the reunification of two identical twins, the cultural divide between them as a result of the forced adoption of one twin by Chinese authorities, and the effects of the separation on both girls and on their families. Along the way, Barbara delves into China's recent historical and political situation, telling the story of its brutal one-child policy, which came into effect in 1979, and the corruption and trafficking of children that emerged as a result. Many families aborted or abandoned children to comply with the law, and in 1992, when China opened its doors to overseas adoption, many were given up to orphanages. Babies were a valuable commodity, with orphanages receiving a 'donation' of $3,000 for each adoption. Over time a corrupt system grew up to increase the supply of babies, including many forced seizures of children.

Daughters of the Bamboo Grove

The fierce debut memoir of a female firefighter, Hotshot navigates the personal and environmental dangers of wildland firefightingFrom 2000 to 2010, River Selby was a wildland firefighter whose given name was Anastasia. This is a memoir of that time in their life—of Ana, the struggles she encountered, and the contours of what it meant to be female-bodied in a male-dominated profession.&nbsp;By the time they were 19, Selby had been homeless, addicted to drugs, and sexually assaulted more than once. In a last-ditch effort to find direction, they applied to be a wildland firefighter. Soon immersed in the world of firefighting and its arcana—from specialized tools named for the fire pioneers who invented them, to the back-breaking labor of racing against time to create firebreaks—Selby began to find an internal balance. Then, after two years of ragtag contract firefighting, Selby joined an elite class of specially trained wildland firefighters known as hotshots.&nbsp;Over the course of five fire seasons, Selby delves into the world of the people—almost entirely men—who risk their lives to fight and sometimes prevent wildfires. Marked out in a sea of machismo, Selby was simultaneously hyper visible and invisible, and Hotshot deftly parses the odd mix of camaraderie and rampant sexism they experienced on their fire crews, and how, when challenged, it resulted in a violent closing of ranks that excluded them from the work they’d come to love. Drawing on years of firsthand experience on the frontlines of fire, followed by years of research into the science and history of fire, Hotshot also reckons with our fraught stewardship of the land—how federal fire policy is maladapted to the realities of fire-prone landscapes and how it has led to ever more severe fire seasons.Hotshot is a work of intimacy and authority, nimbly merging a personal journey of reinvention and self-acceptance with expert insight into the textured history of ecological systems and Indigenous land tending, the modern practices that have led to their imbalance, and the people who fight fire.

The Outermost House

Never before has Marcia Lucas sat down for an interview about Star Wars until now! Pulling all the extra content from The Nacelle Company's hit docuseries Icons Unearthed, comes the Marcia Lucas Interview, the expanded interviews and extra content that never made it to screen. This collection of interviews covers it all from Marcia's humble beginnings as an assistant editor, to her meeting George Lucas while he was in film school, to ultimately working with the likes of Francis Ford Coppola and eventually her pivotal role in the making of Star Wars. This is the story of a woman whose behind the scenes presence turned a little sci-fi film into the incredible franchise that we know it as today.&nbsp;

Marcia Lucas, The Icons Unearthed Star Wars Interview

A vivid and propulsive memoir about finding courage and meaning in a life outdoors, by a world-class whitewater rafting guide. After Bridget Crocker’s parents’ volatile divorce, she moved with her mother from Southern California to Wyoming. Her life was idyllic, living in a trailer park on the banks of the Snake River with a stepfather she loved, a new baby brother, and the river as her companion—until her mother suddenly took up a radical new lifestyle, becoming someone Bridget barely recognized. The one constant in her life—the place Bridget felt whole and fully herself—was the river. When she discovered the world of whitewater rafting, she knew she’d found her calling. On the river, Bridget learned to read the natural world around her and came to know the language of rivers. One of the few female guides on the Snake River, she then traveled to the Zambezi River in Africa, the most dangerous whitewater in the world, where she faced death and learned to conquer her fears—both on the water and off. The river taught her to overcome years of betrayals and abuse, to trust herself, and, finally, how to help heal her family from generational cycles of poverty and abuse. A beautifully rendered memoir of a woman coming into her own, The River’s Daughter opens us to the possibilities of transformation through nature.
