The Four Elements of Eltotsira. Water. Fire. Earth. Air. For many years, stories and rumours have spoken of those with the Power. Some say it is a myth. Some say it is real. No one with it is ever around to tell their side of the story—they are reported to the authorities and erased from their lives as soon as they start to show the signs. When seventeen-year-old Brooke Anders starts to show signs of her own Power, she and her brother, Owen, are forced to question everything they thought they knew. Now, the siblings are faced with a daunting choice: turn Brooke over to the authorities? Or go on the run, putting their lives on the line to escape? Seven years ago, Dawson Rider was ripped from his life and family for having the Power. He was called a monster and forced into a cell. Now, at age seventeen, he has recently escaped from prison, along with his best—and only—friend, Amber Punder. Both are finally free, but with the authorities hot on their trail, will they be able to keep it this way? Or will they be forced to find a new home somewhere else?

Using conversations, observations, and reflections, psychologist Kopano Ratele meditates on love, violence and masculinity This book seeks to imagine the possibility of a more loving masculinity in a society where structural violence, failures of government and economic inequality underpin much of the violent behavior that men display. Enriched with personal reflections on his own experiences as a partner, father, psychologist and researcher in the field of men and masculinities, Why Men Hurt Women and Other Reflections on Love, Violence and Masculinity is Kopano Ratele’s meditation on love and violence, and the way these forces shape the emotional lives of boys and men. At the core of these critical and deeply insightful texts is the question of why men hurt women they love. Ratele contends that many men in our society suffer from a painful, unrecognized, yet consequential love hunger that sets in during boyhood. This need for love may lie at the root of some of the male violence that damages the lives of women, children and men themselves. Blending academic analysis and rigor in a readable narrative style, Ratele illuminates the complex nuances of gender, intimacy and power in the context of the human need for love and care. While unsparing in his analysis of men’s inner lives, Ratele lays out a path for addressing the hunger for love in boys and men. He argues that just as the beliefs and practices relating to gender, sexuality and the nature of love are constantly being challenged and revised, so our ideas about masculinity, and men’s and boys’ capacity to show genuine loving care for each other and for women, can evolve.

Author's Note When Franklin Delano Roosevelt died quietly on April 12, 1945, the lives of millions were forfeited. Had he lived, it is a certainty that Dean Acheson would never have risen from deserved obscurity to become Secretary of State. Ineptitude and error caused the death and dislocation of millions. Korea and Vietnam were needless tragedies. That is part of what this work is about. Arrogant, self-righteous men cause war and corporals pay for it. That is part of what this work is about. This is the story of boys forced to grow up too soon and become battlefield legends. Live heroes are often made by the sacrifice of dead ones. That is part of what this work is about. This is the story of our black budget, the hidden government, the shadowy figures who lurk in the anterooms of power, and are unanswerable to anyone. That is part of what this work is about. -Dean Will Ross 667 pages
