Robert Rosen's investigative memoir, "Beaver Street: A History of Modern Pornography," a Vanity Fair Hot Type pick, was published by London indie Headpress in the U.K. last year and in the U.S. in June. In "Beaver Street," Rosen defines "modern pornography" as the fusion of erotica and computers, which first occurred at High Society magazine in 1983, when they launched their "free" phone-sex lines. The book explores what Rosen witnessed over a 16-year period as an editor for such magazines as High Society, Swank, Stag, and D-Cup, and combines these first-hand accounts with research and reporting to create a detailed insider's portrait of a multi-billion-dollar industry in a state of traumatic upheaval. Michael Musto of the Village Voice called “Beaver Street” “entertaining, insightful, and hot.” Rosen is also the author of "Nowhere Man: The Final Days of John Lennon," which was an international bestseller.

Sonja Gilligan be a guest on Dreamtime Radio September 4th at 10am MT. she will be talking about her new book, The Art of Emotional Self-Defense: finding the 4 feelings that could save your life. This book is about feelings. The author draws the surprising conclusion that there are really only four fundamental feelings: Fear, Anger, Pain and Love. All of them are positive and good for us. In fact, they are the teaching tools in the handbook of our lives. They are constantly "in motion" in keeping with the word we have for them, "emotions," constantly recycling through our minds and bodies, second by second. They are the true guiding forces in each of our lives, whether we are aware of them it or not. This book helps you understand what each of these feelings means to you.

Talk Story TV Presents Adventurer and Poet, Gavriel Navarro

Gavriel Navarro is a Spanish-born poet, musician and artist who grew up in Venezuela and England. After graduating with a degree in Fine Arts and Graphic Design, he spent eleven years in the Amazon as a hunter, an Eco-tourism guide and apprentice of shamanic wisdom. The multilingual Navarro now makes his home in Japan where he applies the lessons of his peripatetic life through film-making and transcendent poetry. He will be talking about his adventurous life and reading poetry from his book.

"Reaching the end of a voyage, we come to an important truth: The end is only the beginning!" says Navarro, "By letting go of false concepts such as accident and coincidence, we allow synchronicity to lead our lives, taking us further along the paths of clarity and discovery. The only laws we need to understand are the laws of the heart, where oceans of possibility come into being, where infinite space can balance the extremes of our imperfections. Every lesson learned is a seed planted. Detours and impediments become opportunities, and we discover the freedom that comes with allowing. Perhaps our greatest joy awaits us at the end of this physical voyage, when we look back at the seeds we planted and discover that they have become a forest, nurturing life and inviting life to return!"

Navarro's first book the "The Wind and The Sea Poems and Reflections on the Voyage of No Return" is available in Amazon.com
ISBN-10: 0985923407
ISBN-13: 978-0985923402
