Paperback. Zustand: Good. This rage is horrible, one of the worst. I watch as my son turns into a raging, spitting animal. Toys become weapons, pounding against my head and back as I force him to the ground and hold him there so he won't hurt himself . . . so he won't hurt me.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Miracle of Effort: Thalia's Autism Journey is the story of Thalia being diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder when she was two years old and her journey to graduating college and becoming an elementary school teacher. Through Thalia's journey, this book aspires to offer a sense of what children with autism and their families go through. The book takes the reader through the experiences, the emotions, the challenges confronted, the sacrifices demanded, and the decisions that needed to be made at different stages of a child's life. Thalia's family is at the center of this story. There were several critical decisions made by Thalia's parents, Donnie and Lorena. They were confronted with a traumatic reality that required perspective and patience, while fighting through moments of despair and sadness. It was Donnie and Lorena's determination that they would be part of the solution for their daughter that shaped Thalia's journey. It is Donnie's cousin, Lisa, who noticed Thalia's autistic behavior symptoms and delivered her initial learning therapy sessions. Each child that is diagnosed as being on the autism spectrum will have a different experience with the disorder. No two situations are the same. The following is Thalia's unique autism journey. Her Miracle of Effort. The book is intended to offer hope to the many families that are confronted with this disability. As Thalia says, an autism diagnosis does not mean that a child cannot be successful. It just means that he or she will see the world in a different light. Thalia's simple hope is to inspire autistic individuals to live up to their full potential and provide optimism to families.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This book re-reads the last 60 years of Anglophone African women's writing from a transnational and trans-historical feminist perspective, rather than postcolonial, from which these texts have been traditionally interpreted. Such a comparative frame throws into relief patterns across time and space that make it possible to situate this writing as an integral part of women's literary history.Revisiting this literature in a comparative context with Western women writers since the 18th century, the author highlights how invocations of tradition have been used by patriarchy everywhere to subjugate women, the similarities between women's struggles worldwide, and the feminist imagination it produced. The author argues that in the 21st century, African feminism has undergone a major epistemic shift: from a culturally exclusive to a relational feminism that conceptualizes African femininity through the risky opening of oneself to otherness, transculturation, and translation. Like Western feminists in the 1960s, contemporary African women writers are turning their attention to the female body as the prime site of women's oppression and freedom, reframing feminism as a demand for universal human rights and actively shaping global discourses on gender, modernity, and democracy.The book will be of interest to students and researchers of African literature, but also feminist literary scholars and comparatists more generally.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Dear Nicky, Love Mommy was a very difficult book for Cheryl A. Borrelli to write-in more ways than one. In an effort to document the life she leads with her autistic son, Nicky, she wrote a first book. Then, one day, she gave her laptop to her son to calm one of his tantrums. He smashed it. The hard drive was not backed up, and the book was lost. Exhausted and suffering from depression, Cheryl begins journaling to process her emotions and find her way back to emotional wellness. She'd read many books by experts on autism but found they didn't capture the day-to-day realities of dealing with the disorder. Each day she recharges while Nicky is at school. Then he comes home, and she adjusts to his changing and sometimes violent moods as well as the endless struggle to manage his medications. Then something unexpected happens. Cheryl realizes that through the process of writing, she is gaining a sense of well-being and perspective. By losing everything, she learns how much she has. And her writing doesn't stop at journaling. Cheryl also writes letters to Nicky, explaining things that can't be expressed in verbal conversation. This is Nicky's story-and hers.…

His memories are acute and he can give virtual word for word, action by action descriptions of the whole of his life. This, he explains in the book, is one of his special skills that adds meaning to events that have happened every day as he enjoys retreating to a quiet place to run through the day in film-like sequences. What makes his story come alive is his analysis of what he was feeling and how others around him have responded. This is a heightened level of awareness of self and others that is supposed to be missing in the autism spectrum but Alex uses his sensitivity to share some poignant moments as well as sources of humour.
