Goblin
WINNER OF THE SALTIRE SOCIETY FIRST BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD 2017 'A profoundly affecting, intellectually challenging and beautifully written fable ... a marvellous piece of work.' - Stuart Kelly, Scotsman. Goblin is an oddball and an outcast. But she's also a dreamer, a bewitching raconteur, a tomboy adventurer whose spirit can never be crushed. Running feral in World War II London, Goblin witnesses the carnage of the Blitz and sees things that can never be unseen...but can be suppressed. She finds comfort in her beloved animal companions and lives on her wits with friends real and imagined, exploring her own fantastical world of Lizard Kings and Martians and joining the circus. In 2011, London is burning once again, and an elderly Goblin reluctantly returns to the city. Amidst the chaos of the riots, she must dig up the events of her childhood in search of a harrowing truth. But where lies truth after a lifetime of finding solace in an extraordinary imagination, where the distinction

Love, Pamela
Her blond bombshell image was ubiquitous in the 1990s. Discovered in the stands of a football game, she was immediately rocket launched into fame, becoming Playboy's favourite cover girl and an emblem of Hollywood glamour and sexuality. But what happens when you lose grip on your own life - and the image the notoriety machine creates for you is not who you really are? Growing up on Vancouver Island, the daughter of young, wild, and unprepared parents, Pamela Anderson's childhood was not easy, but it allowed her to create her own world-surrounded by nature and imaginary friends. When she overcame her deep shyness and grew into herself, she fell into a life on the cover of magazines, the beaches of Malibu, the sets of movies and talk shows, the arms of rockstars, the coveted scene at the Playboy Mansion. And as her star rose, she found herself tabloid fodder, at the height of an era when paparazzi tactics were bent on capturing a celebrity's most intimate, and sometimes weakest moments. This is when Pamela Anderson lost control of her own narrative, hurt by the media and fearful of the public's perception of who she was . . . and who she wasn't. Fighting back with a sense of grace, fuelled by a love of art and literature, and driven by a devotion to her children and the causes she cares about most, Pamela Anderson has now gone back to the island where she grew up, after a memorable run starring as Roxie in Chicago on Broadway, reclaiming her free spirit but also standing firm as a strong, creative, confident woman.

TO LIVE AND DREAM IS A WICKED DANCE. MY DREAMS OFTEN COME TRUE-- A CURSE, AND A BLESSING.PAMELA ANDERSON's blond bombshell image was ubiquitous in the 1990s. Discovered in the stands during a Canadian football game, she was quickly launched into superstardom, becoming Playboy's favorite cover girl and an emblem of Hollywood glamour and sex appeal. Yet the Pamela Anderson we think we know was created through happenstance rather than careful cultivation. Love, Pamela brings forth her true story: that of a small-town girl getting tangled up in her own dream.Growing up on Vancouver Island, the daughter of young, wild, and unwittingly stylish parents, Pamela lived a hardscrabble childhood but developed a deep love for nature, populating her world with misfits, apparitional friends, and injured animals. Eventually overcoming her natural shyness, Pamela's restless imagination propelled her into a life few can dream of, from the beaches of Malibu to the coveted scene at the Playboy Mansion. As her star rose, she found herself a fixture of tabloid fodder, at the height of an era when paparazzi tactics were bent on destroying a person's image and self-esteem.Pamela forged ahead with grace, finding sanctuary in her love of art and literature, and emerged a devoted mother and activist. Now, having returned to the island of her childhood, after a memorable run starring as Roxie in Chicago on Broadway, Pamela is telling her story, a story of an irrepressible free spirit coming home and discovering herself anew at every turn. With vivid prose interspersed with bursts of original poetry, Love, Pamela is a pensive, layered, and unforgettable memoir.

Rakkaudella Pamela, Ljudbok
”Ehkäpä tarinani saa vastakaikua – pikkukaupungin tyttö, joka jotenkin sotkeutui omiin unelmiinsa.” Pamela Anderson kertoo omaelämäkerrassaan, miten ujosta, eläinrakkaasta tytöstä tuli puolivahingossa maailman tunnetuin seksisymboli sekä miten hän säilytti järkensä ja uskonsa ihmisiin hullunmyllyssä nimeltä Hollywood.Pamela Anderson varttui Vancouver Islandilla Kanadassa villin luonnon ympäröimänä teinivanhempiensa sekä suomea puhuneen lempeän isoisänsä kanssa. Eläinrakkaan poikatytön matka tähtiin alkoi, kun televisiokamera osui häneen paikallisessa jalkapallo-ottelussa. Nuori Pamela muutti Hollywoodiin, esiintyi Playboyssa, sai roolin Baywatch-tv-sarjassa, tuli äidiksi sekä rakastui ja erosi rokkari Tommy Leestä koko maailman seuratessa sivusta. Kaikilla oli mielipide Pamelasta, kaikki halusivat palan Pamelaa. Anderson palasi taannoin takaisin kotiseudulleen, puutarhanhoidon ja lukemisen pariin. Siellä hän myös kirjoitti eriskummallisen tarinansa, joka on täynnä valoa ja varjoja, mutta ennen kaikkea lapsenomaista ihmetystä arvaamattoman elämän edessä.Pamela Anderson on kanadalainen näyttelijä. Pamela Anderson -säätiön kautta hän edistää sydäntään lähellä olevia asioita, mukaan lukien valtamerten, sademetsien sekä haavoittuvassa asemassa olevien eläinten suojelua. Pamelan suurin ylpeyden lähde on ollut äitinä oleminen pojilleen Brandon Thomasille ja Dylan Jaggerille.
