"Allison Grayhurst's poetry combines the depth and dark intensity of Sylvia Plath, the layered complex imagery of Dylan Thomas and the philosophical insights of Soren Kierkegaard, taking the reader on a fearless journey through the human condition, delving with honesty into death, grief, loss, faith, commitment, motherhood, and erotic love. Grayhurst intertwines a potent spirituality throughout her work so that each poem is not simply a statement or observation, but a revelation that demands the reader's personal involvement. Grayhurst's poetic genius is profound and evident. Her voice is uniquely authentic, undeniable in its dignified vulnerability as it is in its significance," Kyp Harness, singer/songwriter, author."Allison Grayhurst is the Queen of Catharsis. Allison Grayhurst's poems are like cathedrals witnessing and articulating in unflinching graphic detail the gritty angst and grief of life, while taking it to rare clarity, calm and comfort in an otherwise confusing world of deception, mediocrity and degradation. Allison Grayhurst takes the sludge of life, and with fearless sharpness of eye and heart she spins it free of maggots with the depth of honour and passion. Allison Grayhurst's work is haunting, majestic and cleansing, often leaving one breathless in the wake of its intelligence, hope, faith and love amidst the muck of life. Many of Allison Grayhurst's poems are simply masterpieces booming with thunderous insight begging to be in Bartlett's Quotations, lines such as "I drink necessity's authority." Nothing is wishy-washy in the realm of Allison Grayhurst. Allison Grayhurst's work is sustaining, enriching, and deepening for the soul to read... a light of sanity in the world. As a poet, Allison Grayhurst is a lighthouse of intelligent honour... indeed, intelligence rips through her work like white water," Taylor Jane Green BA, RIHR, CHT, Registered Spiritual Psychotherapist, and author of Swan Wheeler: A North American Mythology and The Rise of Eros.

His text-flirting with Demi, the brother of his best friend, is going nowhere: Demi already has a boyfriend and anyway, who dates their best friend's twin?

Lo studio dell'occulto ha un fascino senza fine: infatti, nonostante le spiegazioni che la scienza può dare ai misteri della terra, restano alcuni fenomeni per i quali non si è ancora trovata una risposta al di fuori dell'occulto. Questo libro offre per la prima volta una panoramica aggiornata di tutti i diversi aspetti di questo tema così complesso e affascinante, incluso un intero capitolo sui rapporti tra il sesso e i fenomeni psichici, un tema finora accuratamente evitato da tutti. Alla luce di un'esperienza pratica di venticinque anni in tutti i campi della ricerca psichica e di un profondo e costante interesse per l'occulto, Underwood cerca di rispondere a una infinità di domande di astrologia, grafologia, previsione del futuro e telepatia. Tra i molti altri temi esamina quello dei medium, ciò che avviene nelle case abitate da fantasmi e come questi fenomeni andrebbero studiati, il significato dei sogni, la storia e le pratiche moderne dei Druidi, delle streghe, e di coloro che praticano la magia nera: vere storie di fantasmi ed esperimenti che l'autore stesso ha vissuto di persona. Peter Underwood ci incoraggia ad esplorare e investigare onestamente e rettamente per una maggiore comprensione del supernaturale e delle tremende e sconosciute forze che sono dentro di noi.
