|  | Rocking the Cradle of Sexual Politics
Click on the link for a complete description.
This is a history of the recent anti-feminist backlash response to, and the depoliticization of, incest. Armstrong, an incest survivor, argues that because the personal is no longer viewed as political, society can overlook the underlying issues of sexual abuse. Furthermore, she asserts that when society views incest as a mental illness instead of an abuse of power, the act becomes more permissible and forgivable.

 | Prophet by Kahlil Gibran, Paul Sparer
Kahlil Gibran worked on the manuscript for The Prophet --his second work in English after The Madman --for several years before it was published in October 1923. Both the author and the world consider this his masterpiece, and it has been translated into dozens of languages. The Prophet concerns Almustafa, the chosen one, who, after exile on an island, addresses such universal themes as love, joy, sorrow, pain, and time. These short aphorisms, functioning as a sort of spiritual poetry, have moved countless readers over the years. With illustrations by Gibran. AUTHOR: Kahlil Gibran, Paul Sparer
