Titres dans Femmes

In Ken & Chaos: A Love Story, Katie Simpson invites readers into her world: a life built not on fairy tales, but on tractors, chickens, turkeys, Dairy Queen dates, menopause mood swings, and the occasional grease fire. This isn’t a polished romance. It’s a laugh-out-loud, sometimes cringe-worthy, always relatable glimpse into what long-term love really looks like when you live in rural Montana with a man like Ken.

Hospice nurse Penny Terrell has walked alongside countless people in their final moments—holding hands, offering comfort, and witnessing scenes she could never explain. Moments when the dying reach out to loved ones long gone. When they smile at an unseen presence. When they speak to mothers, fathers, children, and even pets who have been absent for decades. In Not Going Alone, Penny shares these stories—not as proof or persuasion, but as a collection of experiences too beautiful to forget.

What happens when a child grows up between worlds, never fully belonging anywhere?

In this deeply personal, accessible compilation of stories and supportive resources, Hannah invites us on her complex journey through a year of poison— the multi-drug, weekly chemotherapy that saved her life. In 2020, Hannah was diagnosed with a rare stage IV cancer that came from her pregnancy, treated during the pandemic at Duke University Hospital. This is a story of cancer, but also of ancestors, parenting, and religious and spiritual questions.

The Incest Factor is more than just my story. It holds up a mirror to the deeply ingrained, unspoken, and powerful habits, beliefs, and moral taboos passed down for generations. These patterns don’t just define us—they also hold us back. They keep us locked in a mindset that limits our ability to grow, whether financially, sexually, or spiritually. I lived within those boundaries for far too long, mistaking them for safety, love, and the definition of being a good daughter and a decent woman.

They were the Mitford sisters: Nancy, Pamela, Diana, Unity, Jessica and Deborah. Born into country-house privilege, they became prominent as 'bright young things' in the high society of interwar London. Then, as the shadows crept over 1930s Europe, the stark – and very public – differences in their outlooks came to symbolise the political polarities of a dangerous decade.

She was put in an industrial school as a baby by a priest for being an "illegitimate" black child and not recovered by her mother until she was five.
