  • Bibliotherapy Recommend Book Lists Mood Boosting Books from 2012 By
    Bibliotherapy Recommend Book Lists Mood Boosting Books from 2012 by The Reading Agency: Titles are available on Amazon The Beach Café by Lucy Diamond This is the new novel from Lucy Diamond, every girl's best friend, and author of "Sweet Temptation". Evie Flynn has always been the black sheep of her family - a dreamer and a drifter, unlike her over-achieving elder sisters. She's tried making a name for herself as an actress, a photographer and a singer, but nothing has ever worked out. Now she's stuck in temp hell, with a sensible, pension-planning boyfriend. Somehow life seems to be passing her by. Then her beloved aunt Jo dies suddenly in a car crash, leaving Evie an unusual legacy - her precious beach cafe in Cornwall. Determined to make a success of something for the first time in her life, Evie heads off to Cornwall to get the cafe and her life back on track - and gets more than she bargained for, both in work and in love... Being Human by Neil Astley "Being Human" is the third book in the "Staying Alive" poetry trilogy. "Staying Alive" and its sequel "Being Alive" have introduced many thousands of new readers to contemporary poetry. "Being Human" is a companion volume to those two books - a world poetry anthology offering an even broader, international selection of 'real poems for unreal times'. The range of poetry here complements that of the first two anthologies: hundreds of thoughtful and passionate poems about living in the modern world; poems that touch the heart, stir the mind and fire the spirit; poems about being human, about love and loss, fear and longing, hurt and wonder.

  • Talking Leaves 2005
    Talking Leaves Staff Production Editor Nancy Fay-Lesley Editorial Board Judy Spector Jerry Baker Terry Dibble Robert Stilwell Katherine Wills Copyright 2005 by the Trustees of Indiana University. Upon publication, copyright reverts to the author/artist. We retain the right to electronically archive and publish all issues for posterity and the general public. Talking Leaves is published annually by the Talking Leaves Editorial Board. Publication of Talking Leaves is made possible through generous grants. Statement of policy and purpose The Talking Leaves Editorial Board accepts original works of fiction, poetry, photography, and line drawings from students at IUPU Columbus and IUPU Indianapolis. Each anonymous submission is reviewed by at least three members of the Editorial Board and is judged solely on artistic merit. Cover Art The Pines, Nancy Fay-Lesley i From the Faculty Co-Sponsors’ Desk This year brings improvements to the IUPUColumbus literary magazine. Starting in 2005, the magazine (formerly Literalines) will be titled Talking Leaves in order to highlight the literary and imaginative aspects of IUPUC student work. The term “talking leaves” has its origins rooted in Native American lore and metaphor. The story goes like this: Native Americans noticed new settlers carrying papers that had writing on them (literally contracts, maps, and letters). These papers rustled like leaves and "talked" to people. The Native Americans realized the power of being able to send thoughts to another by way of talking leaves. We at Talking Leaves ask that you celebrate the importance of the written word by reading this issue. Also new this year is the addition of faculty staff highlights.
