THE SHENANIGANS OF SILLILY: Tells of the love that existed between a unionist from West Virginia Annabelle Engeram, heiress to the Standsbury fortune who finds herself prevented from further associations with Gun-Carlo Keenez, a confederate soldier in Virginia, both of whom find themselves on opposite sides during the Civil war in 1861. With all hopes seemingly lost, only the memories of their love that had once kept them inseparable, became the source of strength that would empower Gun-Carlo Keenez to live on through life's most miserable times, and life threatening injuries, yet hoping to reunite again one day soon with Annabelle who ignored his urgent call on what could have been his deathbed, she had since moved on in search of love elsewhere. The chameleonic love she finds forces wonderful memories of the one who loved her when she least deserved it, back to her mind, and like the flower that could not live without the sun, she realized life would be dreary without his love. Under the guise of another person, she dated him, all the while bringing him comfort and hope.It was during one of these covert dates that Annabelle realizes he was her best friend, her shoulder to lean on, her one and only, her everything, and the one person she knew she could count on---when he bequeaths his only piece of property to her on what he thought was his death bed. Even though there wasn't much anyone else could have done, Annabelle prepared to fight his war for him. She rescues him from the hands of his enemies---if only to, irrespective of the divide and social limitations between them, win him back.Although it was like a dream, she made their love reality again when replacing him with a cadaver in a hospital where he lay maimed and near death, or be maimed more for life following surgery, Annabelle stole him from the enemy camp, and brought him home to White Sulphur Springs where the story of their that began a while ago, began again.

We're obsessed with reality television these days yet we so often neglect the greatest reality of all: the reality of our nation, and how it came to be. In ERROR AUSTRALIS, TV columnist, comedian and history buff Ben Pobjie recaps the history of Australia from its humble beginnings as a small patch of rapidly cooling rock, to its modern-day status as one of the major powers of the sub-Asian super-Antarctic next-to-Africa region. Pobjie recognises that history can be as gripping as any reality show - as thrilling as it is to see Delta Goodrem's chair turn around, there is an argument that the Second World War was even more exciting - and like any good recapper, he provides an immediate, visceral sense of what it was like to be there in the moment at our nation's defining events.All historians know that it is only by looking at where we have been that we can understand who we are, what we stand for, and why nothing seems to work. ERROR AUSTRALIS is a scholastic and side-splittingly funny account of a young nation that has spent many years seeking its place in the world, and almost as many years not liking what it has found.

In 1969, shortly after the drowning death of her six-year-old son, Victoria Valentino was raped by Bill Cosby. That's the story everyone wants to hear, but it's not her whole story.When it comes to Cosby, one of the questions she has been asked so often by members of the media is, "Why did you wait so long to speak up?" A logical question. After all when your house is robbed or your purse is stolen, you go to the police. Why wouldn't you do the same thing if your body is violated? The answer does not come as naturally as the question.For Victoria, silence was par for the course. Not something she would have questioned. She had been emotionally raped as a child - left feeling bereft and humiliated. She searched for love in the wrong places, leaving herself open and vulnerable to more physical and emotional abuse. All that shame, blame, guilt, and fear came rolled up in one little package. That package was Victoria Valentino. Dirty Diamonds is not just about Victoria's journey - it's a journey countless women have found themselves on. Not one they necessarily chose. But for her, it's been a journey from objectification and victimization to self-actualization: finding her voice at last. Coming of age in the 1960s, Victoria was a Playboy Centerfold, "Miss September 1963"-objectification for all the world to see. Given who she is now, maybe she wouldn't have taken her clothes off for a magazine, but it happened, and now she embraces it as part of who she is. Her story is a woman's story. A survivor's story. This is not a story about Bill Cosby. He is but a blip on the radar screen of Victoria's life. This is a story of love, the hope of love, and the discovery that maybe we are all we ever really needed.
