Sinopsis

Fernando Pessoa's 'Antinous: A Poem' is a stunning work that exquisitely intertwines themes of beauty, love, and mortality. Written in Pessoa's signature style of heteronymic poetry, 'Antinous' tells the tragic story of the famed lover of Emperor Hadrian through rich and vivid imagery. The poem explores the complexities of desire and longing, inviting readers to ponder the nature of artistic creation and the ephemeral nature of beauty. Set against the backdrop of ancient Rome, Pessoa's lyrical prose transports the reader to a world of classical splendor and poetic ambiguity. This work showcases Pessoa's mastery of language and his ability to evoke powerful emotions through his writing style. As a key figure in modernist literature, Pessoa's daring exploration of identity and existence shines through 'Antinous.' The poem encapsulates the essence of Pessoa's poetic vision, making it a must-read for anyone interested in Portuguese literature or modernist poetry. 'Antinous: A Poem' is a timeless masterpiece that will captivate and inspire readers seeking profound reflections on love, art, and the human experience.

    The fate of their pack is in their hands.

    When Ray presents as an omega instead of an alpha, his life changes forever. As a male omega, he's expected to mate with a select group of alphas and start a pack of his own.  
    The five men selected for him are as different as they are keen. And one of them is his best friend, Josh, who Ray was sure could never return his feelings. But now they all must deal with the mating instinct that the power of the Moon brings out in them; and after that... Ray will have bigger problems than a crush.  
    Can Ray become the submissive omega his pack needs him to be? Will the alphas understand how hard it is for him, or demand more than he can give?

Seeing how aroused she has become, her lover agrees to participate in her newfound fetish. In fact, she takes so well to her dominant role that she organises a particularly extreme evening of darkly erotic pain involving a bed of sharp spikes and a whole host of other sadistic sexual implements.

    It’s not simply that Dot Wilkinson was one of the most decorated women’s softball players, bowlers, and athletes of all time and one of the original players from the three-time-world-champion PBSW Phoenix Ramblers softball team (1933–1965). Nor was it the length of her time here on Earth—over a century—although any of these things by itself would be impressive. The magic of Dot’s story is in the details. It’s the tale of a childhood spent in poverty, an indomitable, unbreakable spirit, a determination to be the very best to play whatever sport she undertook, the independence to live her personal life on her own terms, and her tremendous success at all of it. Over more than a decade of countless conversations and interviews, Dot shared all of it with her dear friend, author Lynn Ames. Dot held nothing back. Out at the Plate, told through the lens of Dot and Lynn’s friendship, is the story of a forgotten era in women’s history and sports, and one extraordinary woman’s place at the center of it all.

    Going undercover means lying to everyone he loves. 
    MAHU SURFER, the second book in my Mahu Investigations mystery series, sends gay Honolulu homicide detective Kimo Kanapa’aka back to his surfing past. His new boss asks the former competitive surfer to go undercover on Oahu’s North Shore to find the killer of three surfers. The catch: he can't tell any of his family or friends that he has returned to the force, causing him to lie, when he has just come out of the closet and begun to tell the truth about his life. 
    In his return to the North Shore, Kimo discovers trouble in paradise, from an epidemic rise in the use of crystal meth to increasing pressure on real estate prices. He also rekindles an uneasy friendship with a man whose sexual assault drove him into the police academy, and further into the closet, six years earlier. Readers will enjoy an exotic locale, plenty of aloha spirit and a dash of surf culture, as well as a slam-bang ending. 
    Finalist for the Lambda Literary Award for best gay mystery. Perfect for fans of Joseph Hansen, Michael Nava, and John Morgan Wilson.
