Dibs - In Search of Self

This book chronicles the incredible true story of a deeply brilliant but profoundly traumatized five-year-old boy named Dibs. Withdrawn into complete silence, emotionally isolated, and prone to violent tantrums, Dibs is misdiagnosed by teachers and his wealthy parents as mentally disabled. As a last resort, renowned child psychologist Dr. Virginia Axline begins weekly non-directive play therapy sessions with him. Through creative play, toys, and paint, Dibs slowly reveals his high intelligence, unlocks his hidden emotional scars, and embarks on a moving journey toward healing and self-discovery.

The Handmaid's Tale

In the repressive Republic of Gilead, Offred is a Handmaid—reduced to a singular, terrifying biological function: to breed. If she refuses or dissents, she faces the wall or a slow death. In this terrifyingly plausible dystopian world, her freedom is a forgotten concept and her daily life is tightly controlled. Yet, even under the most brutal surveillance, Offred remembers her old life—her family, her job, her identity—and discovers that a totalitarian state cannot fully obliterate human desire. Compulsively readable and profoundly chilling, Margaret Atwood's landmark masterpiece remains a stunningly urgent exploration of power, resistance, and survival.
