One of the lucky few with a job during the Depression, Peggy’s just starting out in life. She’s a bagging girl at the Angliss meatworks in Footscray, a place buzzing with life as well as death, where the gun slaughterman Jack has caught her eye – and she his.

How is her life connected to Hilda’s, almost a hundred years later, locked inside during a plague, or La’s, further on again, a singer working shifts in a warehouse as her eggs are frozen and her voice is used by AI bots? Let alone Maz, far removed in time, diving for remnants of a past that must be destroyed? Is it by the river that runs through their stories, eternal yet constantly changing – or by the mysterious Hummingbird Project, and the great question of whether the march of progress can ever be reversed? 

Propulsive, tender and engrossing, this genre-bending novel is a feast for the heart as well as the mind and senses. For fans of David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas, Michelle de Kretser’s The Life to Come and Jennifer Egan’s The Candy House, it confirms Mildenhall as one of the most ambitious and dynamic writers in the country.

'Kate Mildenhall is such an exciting writer to read … This generous, playful novel speaks to themes of climate change, survival and holding space for each other, as well as the enduring power of female friendship.' The Guardian

‘Spellbinding, genre-defying, and powerful in its vision of the future … The Hummingbird Effect is a devastating novel that exposes the ways the future is seeded in the past.’ Australian Book Review

Follow one mans lifelong, extreme, transformation in this multifaceted memoir, which brings you through a life filled with trauma, death, denial, personal development, paranormal experiences, spiritual gifts, true love, and triumph, in his search for peace and happiness.

Embark on a journey as he transforms from an unswerving atheist into one who is certain of an afterlife. The book includes the details of his experiencing death firsthand (NDE) in which he describes his death as the best day of his life. This event sparked a journey spanning many years of researching the science of life, death, the afterlife, energy, consciousness, quantum physics, and pursuing the development of his intuitive abilities. Skills that he says anyone can develop and utilize for their own personal wellbeing.

Each story is taken from Ray's personal journal and written with humility, sarcasm, and humor. Although the subject matter may be quite serious and a little gritty at times, it is the authors wish that, those who can relate to having these types of traumatic experiences, learn that regardless of your past, nothing can stop you from achieving your future goals and ultimately finding love and peace. Although the book discusses metaphysical and paranormal activity, this story at its core is about the pursuit of happiness, love, and enlightenment when the odds are significantly stacked against you, of having any of that.

Title: On Class

Author: Deborah Dundas

Narrator: Deborah Dundas

Format: Unabridged

Length: 04:16:34

Language: English

Release date: 07-30-23

Publisher: ECW Press

Genres: Business & Economics, Non-Fiction, Social Science, Business Development

Summary:

Deborah Dundas is a journalist who grew up poor and almost didnt make it to university. In On Class, she talks to writers, activists, those who work with the poor and those who are poor about what happens when we dont talk about poverty or classand what will happen when we do.

Growing up poor, Deborah Dundas knew what it meant to want, to be hungry, and to long for social and economic dignity; she understood the crushing weight of having nothing much expected of you. But even after overcoming many of the usual barriers faced by lower- and working-class people, she still felt anxious about her place, and even in relatively safe spaces reluctant to broach the subject of class. While new social movements have generated open conversation about gender and racism, discussions of class rarely include the voices of those most deeply affected: the working class and poor.

On Class is an exploration of the ways in which we talk about class: of who tells the stories, and who doesnt, which ones tend to be repeated most often, and why this has to change. It asks the question: What dont we talk about when we dont talk about class? And what might happen if, nally, we did?

Title: Unlock Your Greatness: 6 Essential Steps to Self-Transformation

Author: Zig Ziglar

Narrator: Dan Strutzel

Format: Unabridged

Length: 04:59:17

Language: English

Release date: 07-25-23

Publisher: G&D Media

Genres: Self Development, Health & Wellness

Summary:

In this life-changing book, Zig will show you how to unleash your own hidden potential.

By working methodically through the 6 steps that are outlined in each of the book's 6 chapters, you will have the perfect combination to unlock your greatness, and firmly establish your lasting imprint on the world. Youll be using the power of your mind to achieve a level of self-confidence and success that you previously thought were out of reach. The core idea that Zig will present to achieve this, is one that Zig learned from the classic researcher Maxwell Maltz

and thats the idea of self-image. While the term self-image is rarely used today, this breakthrough idea is at the core of much modern thinking in psychology and neuroscience. Until you change the image you have of yourself in your brain, youll never achieve the goals you have for yourself, due to self-sabotage and other neural factors that keep you locked safely in your comfort zone.

Another way of thinking of the concept of self-image and how to program ones self-image for positive results is what Zig considers the preferred outcome

which is self-transformation. So when Zig discusses self-image let it trigger the idea of self-transformation. If you follow the steps that follow, and unleash the power of your mind to develop a positive self-image, you will unlock your greatness..and Zig will see YOU at the top!

You will learn how to:

Acquire a healthy self-image

Find success

Become more positive

Cultivate great relationships
