'People ask me how I make music. I tell them I just step into it. It's like stepping into a river and joining the flow. Every moment in the river has its song. So, I stay in the moment and listen' - Michael Jackson (1958 - 2009). "Dancing the Dream" is one man's hauntingly beautiful, provocatively personal view of the world around us, and the universe within each of us. Whether his prose and poetry focused on creativity, the people that surrounded him, or the plight of the noble elephant, his observations and concerns all illustrated his belief that trust, love and faith are the foundation stones for a life well lived. Containing Michael Jackson's personal writings and over one hundred glorious photographs, drawings, and paintings from his own collection, this book is a must have for all fans of an incredible, inspiring man who died as he lived - dancing his dream. This title is suitable for millions of Michael Jackson fans. 她，沒有名字，有的只是主人的姓氏。

她，沒有过去，当然也不会有未來。她，不能言語，沒有自在，只能完全信奉神。她，红色是仅有的制服；她存活的任务就是生育，生殖器官是她生存的工具。基列共和国裡，男女阶等分明，父权主宰了这个社会的一切。女人被严苛的控制着，无法有自主的工作，不能拥有财产，依照剩余价值被分配担任不同职务。「使女」是其一，她们没有名字，不能阅读、与人交谈，被剥夺情与慾，禁绝容许隐密的慾望之花有盛开之机；只是长着两条腿的生育机器，职司和社会主导者大主教交合，以便繁衍下一代。本书记录了一名在基列共和国时期担任「使女」的心情故事。她驯服在体制裡，心灵却自有主张，一步步挑战禁忌......记录的年代久远不可考，但情节之荒诞骇人，却熟悉莫名地叫人心惊。 Offred is a Handmaid in the Republic of Gilead. She has only one function: to breed. If she deviates, she will, like dissenters, be hanged at the wall or sent out to die slowly of radiation sickness. But even a repressive state cannot obliterate desire - neither Offred's nor that of the two men on which her future hangs. Brilliantly conceived and executed, this powerful evocation of twenty-first century America explores a world in which oppression of women, and repression of the truth, have become justified.
