A new masterpiece of modern queer fiction, Wife & Wife is a sharply observed and deeply moving story of love, discovery, and defiance told through the eyes of two women who meet as housewives in the 1950s and triumphantly marry in 2011.It is 1955 in the sedate, affluent suburb of Pearl’s Cove, New York. Twenty-five-year-old housewife and mother of two Ruth Wolf is a glamorous platinum blonde who secretly devours lesbian pulp fiction shoplifted from the local drugstore. But nothing about her clandestine reading has prepared her for what will happen when she meets Sylvie Fein, a socialite who pours her energy into making art while her children are at school. Their connection is electric and instantly threatens to upend their dutiful, traditional lives.Dazzled and in love, Ruth and Sylvie struggle to find a way to be together for more than half a century, wrestling with the expectations of their families and neighbors and the undeniable force of their desire for one another. From the stifling suburban kitchens of the 50s to the triumphant coming of gay marriage in 2011, this is a sharpy observed, wryly funny and deeply moving journey through time and the human heart.Wife & Wife transforms a single love affair between two ordinary women into a sweeping narrative of discovery and reinvention, mirroring the profound cultural upheavals that redefined marriage and family in America.

This major new work explores the British encounter with Buddhism in nineteenth century Sri Lanka, examining the way Buddhism was represented and constructed in the eyes of the British scholars, officials, travellers and religious seekers who first encountered it. Tracing the three main historical phases of the encounter from 1796 to 1900, the book provides a sensitive and nuanced exegesis of the cultural and political influences that shaped the early British understanding of Buddhism and that would condition its subsequent transmission to the West. Expanding our understanding of inter-religious relations between Christians and Buddhists, the book fills a significant gap in the scholarship on Theravada Buddhism in Sri Lanka by concentrating on missionary writings and presenting a thorough exploration of original materials of several important pioneers in Buddhist studies and mission studies.

This book demonstrates that a type of prologue found in ancient Greek literature could be the literary convention behind John 1.1-18. The structure and content of the Johannine prologue determine the structure and content of the whole Gospel. It provides the reader with seminal statements about the cosmic situation and God''s plan for mankind, statements which are explicated thereafter. This function of the prologue is explored through the three historical personages mentioned in that largely metaphysical construction about the Logos: John, Moses and Jesus Christ. The person and mission of Jesus Christ, cryptically stated in the prologue, are explicated through three christological expressions: ''the Son of Man'', ''I am'', and ''the Son (of God)''. These require the Logos-creator conception in the background to give them theological coherence.

What’s Wrong with My Child? reveals a mother’s quest for answers about her son’s psych symptoms that leads to shocking discoveries that could impact struggling families in the United States and possibly globally.Elizabeth Harris’ son Cody was eleven when, out of the blue, he started exhibiting signs of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). The OCD turned into something far more sinister when Cody started having episodes where he seemed to lose total control over his actions, leading to Cody being committed to a county youth detention center. There, he was placed in solitary confinement for weeks. For five years, Elizabeth fought a hard battle to find out what was going on with her son and their family while simultaneously battling an unsympathetic judicial system. Driven to find a cure, Elizabeth visited countless doctors across the USA. She quickly became frustrated by the fact that there was no agreement in the medical community regarding PANDAS (Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Strep), the disease behind Cody’s transformation. In her quest for answers, this science-minded spa owner found proof of weaponized bacteria not only impacting their extended family, but that could be making families around the USA and possibly globally sick as well.
