O Jack

what a relief
a laugh

this morning
see everything goes anywhere
that any other place
is also
there.
Believe me

it is pure joy
to overshoot the moon
and find you
out there
too.

graceful strengthwatching [their] characters can be like watching slow-moving
giants.Mous. magazine

Hegemony How-To
A Roadmap for Radicals
Jonathan Matthew Smucker
Its time to come in from the margins.

This book is your roadmap to relevance.
A lucid diagnosis of the American lefts paralyzing ambivalence about power and
its tendency toward purism, fragmentation, and insularity. Smucker shows how
we might turn popular disaffection into a powerful force for change. This book is
desperately needed.A stra Taylor, director of iek! and Examined Life
Jonathan Smucker is a critical voice within an important emerging political project whose aim is to move the next Left generation from symbolic and often self-
marginalizing strategies toward approaches that can lead to effective main stage
intervention.Max Elbaum, author of Revolution in the Air
If Saul Alinsky and Antonio Gramsci somehow had a bastard lovechild, he might
be named Jonathan Smucker.A ndrew Boyd, co-editor of Beautiful Trouble:
A Toolbox for Revolution.
A conceptual guide to political struggle for a social movement and generation that
is deeply ambivalent about power, Hegemony How-To makes a moral and strategic case for the intentional cultivation of collective power, organization, and leadership. Combining decades of grassroots organizing with a skillful use of social
theory, Smucker digs into the structural constraints and subjective challenges of
social movements that tend to gravitate toward symbolic forms of self-expression
and insular, identity-a ffirming rituals, often at the expense of real political intervention. At the same time, he shows how savvy groups have been able to successfully navigate such self-defeating dynamics, and win.
Jonathan Smucker is co-founder of Beyond the Choir, an organization providing strategic support and organizational development to social justice organizations. His work has been published in the Berkeley Journal of Sociology and the
Sociological Quarterly.

Prison Memoirs of an Anarchist
Alexander Berkman
Introduction and annotation by Jessica Moran and Barry Pateman
An early classic of American prison literature,

now annotated in this definitive edition.
A book of rare power and beauty, majestic in its structure, filled with the truth of
imagination and the truth of actuality, emphatic in its declarations and noble in
its reach.Bayard Boyesen, Mother Earth
No other book discusses so frankly the criminal ways of the closed prison
society.Kenneth Rexroth
eBook available
In 1892, Alexander Berkman tried to assassinate Henry Clay Frick for the latters role in violently suppressing the Homestead Steel Strike. Berkmans attempt
was unsuccessful. He spent the next fourteen years in Pennsylvanias Western
Penitentiary. Upon release, he wrote what was to become a classic of prison literature, and a profound testament to human courage in the face of oppression.
This new edition of his account of those years is introduced and fully annotated by Barry Pateman and Jessica Moran, both former associate editors of the
Emma Goldman Papers at the University of California, Berkeley. Their efforts
make this the definitive version of Berkmans tale of his transformation within
prison, his growing sympathy for those hed considered social parasites, and
the intimate relationships he developed with them. Also includes never-before-
published facsimile reprints and transcriptions of the diary Berkman kept while
he wrote this book, conveying the difficulties he had reliving his experiences.

No More Heroes
Grassroots Challenges to the Savior Mentality
Jordan Flaherty
Charity is not solidarity. Saviors need not apply.
The left is full of missionaries. Privileged in terms of race, sex, or class, these do-
gooders set out to save the poor and oppressed in ways that make matters worse
and also serve to bolster their own social power. They are driven by a desire for
justice, but they dont want to listen to those they are ostensibly rescuing.
Seasoned journalist Jordan Flaherty brings us inside the dark and politically
twisted mind of the savior. Starting with Brandon Darby, an FBI informant whose
rise within radical circles showed how movements are susceptible to a particular
style of political heroism, Flaherty introduces us to would-be liberators and the
damage they cause. We meet the young, idealistic, and mostly white people who
join Teach For America and displace unionized African American teachers. We
hear from anti-sex-trafficking crusaders and the marginalized women their programs put behind bars. We see Red Cross coffers grow at the expense of local communities who consistently do more with less. And we also see a growing response
to these dynamics: grassroots and street-based uprisings like those in Ferguson,
Missouri, creating accountable movements focused on real, systemic change.
Insightful and unsparing, No More Heroes is an indispensible tool for social
justice activists.
Jordan Flaherty, executive producer of The Laura Flanders Show, is an award-
winning journalist who has appeared on television and radio shows including
Anderson Cooper 360, CNN Headline News, and News and Notes on NPR. He is
author of Floodlines: Community and Resistance from Katrina to the Jena Six.

Emergent Strategy
Shaping Change, Changing Worlds
adrienne maree brown

Change is constant. The world, our bodies, and our minds are in a constant state
of flux. They are a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. Rather than steel
ourselves against such change, Emergent Strategy teaches us to map and assess
the swirling structures and to read them as they happen, all the better to shape
that which ultimately shapes us, personally and politically. A resolutely materialist spirituality based equally on science and science fiction: a wild feminist and
afro-f uturist ride!

Worshiping Power
An Anarchist View of Early State Formation
Peter Gelderloos
Worshiping Power cuts through inadequate theories of early state formation
to offer a new analysis of the roles that kinship, religious practice, and commerce have played in stifling self-organization. Gelderlooss partisan approach
to human social complexity is highly innovative, yet comprehensible to the lay
person. A formidable assault on a social institution whose contemporary ubiquity renders it almost invisible.

At once practical handbook, philosophical inquiry, and series of fables set in

the machinery of contemporary language, generating strange solidarities between saboteurs past and present. Sourced from political pamphlets and factory
workers diaries, Brjels profound poem allows for the most expansive (and explosive) sense of sabotage.

Ziggy Marley and Family Cookbook
Delicious Meals Made with Whole, Organic Ingredients
Ziggy Marley
A cookbook inspired by the food of Ziggys upbringing
in the household of Bob and Rita Marley.
As the oldest son of Bob and Rita Marley, Ziggy was raised with both traditional Jamaican food and the more natural and healthy ital food of the familys
Rastafari culture. The approximately fifty recipes included in the book, inspired
by Ziggys youth and accompanied by beautiful full-color photographs, are contributed by Ziggy Marley, Karen Marley, and Orly Marley, as well as celebrity chefs
Bruce Sherman, Ben Ford, and Ricardo Rodriguez.
From Ziggys introduction:
I first started dabbling in the kitchen as a teenager. I enjoyed making cornmeal porridge, and it helped me to begin appreciating the idea of nourishment, the idea that
food can make your body feel better. I would make Irish moss and some of my dads
juices. . . . Our Rasta culture was different than regular Jamaican culture. We used
to have both sides then, because my auntie would cook the more traditional Jamaican
food. But then, on the other side, our Rasta culture drew us to a different way of eating. My father would always have a lot of juices and greens and nuts. We were introduced to ital foodfresh, organic, and nutritious, less salt.
Ziggy Marley, a multiple Grammy Awardwinning reggae artist, was born to Rita
and Bob Marley in 1968 in the slums of Trenchtown, Jamaica. He first performed
with his father in 1979 and since then has recorded albums with the Melody
Makers (with his siblings), as well as solo albums. In recent years, Ziggy launched
his own food line, Ziggy Marley Organics, which features GMO-f ree coconut oil
and roasted hemp seeds. In 2014, Akashic Books published Ziggys best-selling
childrens book, I Love You Too.

The Third Squad is an arresting, ripped-from-t he-headlines noir novel that deftly
explores how in recent decades, to ostensibly combat the rising tide of crimi
nality in Mumbais underworld, the Indian Police Service has carried out many
hundreds of extrajudicial assassinations of suspected criminals. Karan, an expert sharpshooter in an elite branch of the Indian police dispensed with dishing
out this peculiar blend of vigilante justice, has a difficult choice to make: should
he continue to blindly follow orders from his superiors, regardless of their moral
standing, or should he take matters into his own hands and do what he believes
to be right?
Belonging to a hit squad whose members all fall somewhere along the autism spectrum, Karan, who has been diagnosed with mild Aspergers syndrome, is notorious for his ruthless precision and efficiency in carrying out these
assassinations, yet he remains aloof and distant. Gradually, his impenetrable
faade begins to crack, and Karans emotional and psychological depth reveals itself as he is forced to make decisions where the stakes are literally life-a nd-death.
Dark, gritty, raw, fast-paced, and never sentimental, The Third Squad distills the
best aspects of classic American noir writing into a uniquely Indian context, revealing V. Sanjay Kumar as a singular talent on the crime fiction circuit.
V. Sanjay Kumar runs an art gallery and writes about art for various magazines
and exhibition catalogs. His two previous novels take place in the bustling cities of
Mumbai and Chennai, exploring the fringes of middle-class life there.

Its 1997, the dawn of the digital age in San Francisco. Ex-journalist and
struggling alcoholic David Itchy Cranes fledgling information consultancy
business is getting slowly buried by bad luck, bad decisions, and the growing
presence of the Internet. Before Itchy can completely self-destruct, a crooked
private investigator offers him fifty grand to find a missing girl named Ashley.
Crane takes the job because the moneys right and because the only clue to her
disappearance is a dead-on oil portrait of Crane himself painted by the mysterious missing girlw hom he has never met.
As Itchys search for Ashley rapidly becomes an obsession, he stumbles upon
a series of murders, gets slapped around by thugs, is intimidated by cops, and begins to suspect hes being framed for the murders by a psychotic Guatemalan hit
man. Left with no avenue but survival, Crane goes on the offensive, fighting to
clear his name, solve the murders, and find the beguiling portrait artist Ashley,
who may have a few surprises of her own.

Set in the shadow of Kenyas independence from Great Britain, Kimani re

imagines the rise and fall of colonialism in Africa, and the special circumstances

The novel traces the lives and loves of three men brought together by the railway, which intersect when preacher Richard Turnbull, the colonial administrator
Ian McDonald, and Indian worker Babu Salim are implicated in the controversial
birth of a child. Years later, when Babus grandson, a singer named Rajan, accidentally kisses a mysterious stranger in a dark nightclub, the encounter provides
the spark to illuminate the three mens shared, murky past.
Dance of the Jakaranda teems with life and vitality, love and lust; seldom has
the story of Africas colonization been told with such tenderness and complex
humanity, providing a new metaphor for race in contemporary Africa.

This is the unflinching memoir of a black womans journey from the projects
of Motown-era Michigan to the skyscrapers of Madison Avenue and beyond.
With marches, riots, and demonstrations as the backdrop and rock and roll as a
soundtrack, this book accompanies Graves as she traverses the seismically shifting terrain of 1960s and 70s America on a stumbling quest to be somebody.
In the 1980s and 90s, as Graves makes her ascent to the East Coast heights
of the white maledominated advertising world, she turns familiarity with harsh
realities like racism and sexism into robust insights that deeply connect with
African American consumers. During the golden era of black advertising, she
becomes an undisputed somebody. Soon, though, she learns that money, success, a good marriage, and connections that reach all the way to the White House
cannot entirely insulate her against the social ills that threaten to crush black
Americans.
Valerie Graves, whom Advertising Age magazine named one of the 100 Best
and Brightest in the entire industry, is a nationally recognized creative director of such Fortune 500 accounts as Ford, General Motors, AT&T, Burger
King, General Foods, and Pepsi. A former teenage parent from the factory town
of Pontiac, Michigan, Graves broke barriers in advertising as one of the first
black copywriters at BBDO, Kenyon & Eckhardt, and JWT. She went on to an
award-w inning career as chief creative officer at the UniWorld and Vigilante/
Leo Burnett agencies, senior vice president of creative services at iconic Motown
Records, and creative consultant to President Bill Clinton. In 2007, recognizing Gravess stellar career and public service via the Advertising Council and the
Partnership for a Drug-Free America, industry coalition ADCOLOR awarded
her the title of Legend. She resides in New York City.

Unsportsmanlike Conduct
College Football and the Politics of Rape
Jessica Luther
A meticulously researched and powerful expos on the epidemic of

cover-ups that surround sexual assault and college football players.
Football teams create playbooks, in which they draw up the plays they will use
on the field. If all goes well, the large amount of work that goes into a single
play suddenly looks like a natural flow of bodies moving in unison that results
in the movement of the ball down the field or the successful stop of the other
teams offense.
This book is about a different kind of playbook. Over the last three years,
sexual assault on college campuses has been a hot topic as people are wondering aloud and often about it, especially when it involves star football players.
Unsportsmanlike Conduct explores that playbook: the one coaches, teams, universities, police, communities, the media, and fans seem to follow whenever a
college football player is accused of sexual assault. Its a deep dive into how different institutionst he NCAA, athletic departments, universities, the media
run the same plays over and over again when these stories break. If everyone runs
their plays well, scrutiny dies down quickly, no institution ever has to change how
it operates, and the evaporation of these cases into nothingness looks natural.
In short, this playbook is why nothing ever changes.
Unsportsmanlike Conduct unpacks this societal playbook piece by piece, and
explores the possibility of destroying the old plays and replacing them with ones
that will force us to finally do something about this issue.
Jessica Luther is a writer and investigative journalist living in Austin, Texas.
Her work on sports and culture has appeared in the Texas Observer, the Austin
Chronicle, Sports Illustrated, Texas Monthly, Vice Sports, Guardian Sport, and

The Game Dont Change
Mazaradi Fox
The posthumous novel from legendary Queens rapper

Mazaradi Fox, a member a 50 Cents G-Unit crew.
The Game Dont Change is a story from the streets, where life and death are closer
than you think. Mazaradi Fox knew how to play the game better than most, and
his life and experience shine through every page of this tough and unsentimental
book. An instant classic of NYC thug life.Prodigy of Mobb Deep
Mazaradi Fox wrote this novel in 2013 during his incarceration at the Orleans
Correctional Facility. The Game Dont Change opens when DeMarco Jones escapes from a juvenile detention facility. Successfully evading the law, DeMarco
builds his reputation on the streets of Queens as a fearless and charismatic
drug hustler. Though he is only sixteen, women of all ages cant get enough of
DeMarco. He finds, however, that he must battle ferociously to maintain his new
kingpin status.
Mazaradi Fox (19712014), born Jamal Green, was a rap star who grew up in
South Jamaica, Queens. Like childhood friend 50 Cent, Fox was on the streets
from an early agea situation that led him to make numerous trips to prison.
It was during an eight-year stint on heinous charges that Fox made the decision to focus on his music. Upon Foxs release, 50 Cent brought him over to his
label, G-Unit Records. In January 2014, Fox was killed when a gunman in a black
ski mask opened fire on an SUV he was in on Farmers Boulevard in his native
borough of Queens, New York.

Frederick Douglass in Brooklyn
Frederick Douglass
Edited by Theodore Hamm
This volume compiles original source material that illustrates the relationship
between the abolitionist leader and Brooklyn. Most prominent are the speeches
Douglass gave at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, Plymouth Church, and other
leading Brooklyn institutions. Whether discussing the politics of the Civil War
or recounting his relationships with his friends Abraham Lincoln and John
Brown, Douglasss towering voice sounds anything but dated.
Frederick Douglass (18181895) was an abolitionist leader and defender of
womens rights. He escaped from slavery and in 1845 published Narrative of the
Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave.
Theodore Hamm is chair of journalism and new media studies at St. Josephs
College in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. His previous books include The New Blue
Media and Pieces of a Decade. He lives in Brooklyn.

Madwoman
Shara McCallum
Poems progress through the wilds of the mind and memory,

dispatching parables and challenging of the myth of self.
These wonderful poems open a world of sensation and memory. But it is a world
revealed by language, never just controlled. The voice that guides the action here
is openhearted and open-mindeda lyric presence that never deserts the subject
or the reader. Syntax, craft and cadence add to the gathering music from poem to
poem withto use a beautiful phrase from the book, each note tethering sound
to meaning.Eavan Boland
Haunting, alarming, transformative, and elusive, these poems bridge together the
gaps between development stages: from girl, to woman, and then mother. With
the complexities that intertwine them, can you be all three at once? Who shapes
our identity, and who is in control here? How do we recognize, acknowledge, and
honor the changing of who we are?
Originally from Kingston, Jamaica, Shara McCallum is the author of four previous books of poetry. Recognition for her poetry includes a Witter Bynner
Fellowship and a National Endowment for the Arts Poetry Fellowship. Her
poems and personal essays have been published in literary magazines, anthologies, and textbooks in the United States, United Kingdom, Caribbean,
Latin America, and Israel and have been translated into Spanish, French, and
Romanian. Since 2003, McCallum has been the Director of the Stadler Center for
Poetry and a Professor of creative writing and literature at Bucknell University.

Contradictions in the Design
Matthew Olzmann
Fighting illogic with illogic, these poems employ humor as a way to make
affecting points about American society and cultural norms.
Matthew Olzmanns poetry is that rare thing that embraces complication

while, at every turn, filling us with wonder. Contradictions in the Design incorporates patterns among celestial bodies, the mysteries of Christ, X + Y, crossword
puzzles, free will, but also the playfulness and oddities of life that allow us to
laugh hardest at ourselves. Desire, Supervillains, Moby, and the idea of Moby:
prepare yourself to be dazzled.C . Dale Young
These political poems employ humor to challenge the cultural norms of
American society, focusing primarily on racism, social injustices, and inequality. Simultaneously, the poems take on a deeper, personal level as they carefully
deconstruct identity and the human experience, piecing them together with
unflinching logic and wit. Olzmann takes readers on a surreal exploration of
discovery and self-evaluation.

World of Made and Unmade
Jane Mead
Heartfelt poems from a daughters perspective as she cares for her

elderly mother in her nal weeks of life.
World of Made and Unmade is a deep blue yarn of very fi ne thread. . . . Jane
Meads poem could be neither more literal nor nearer the verge of appearing a
litt le too perfect for this world. As the laundry room floods and the grape harvest
gets done; as Michoacn waits for another time, her beautiful, practical mother
is dying. Ashes are scattered in the pecan groves of her own Rincon, her own
corner of the world, and the poet, in elementary script, draws a sustaining record of the only feeling worth the struggle, and she cannot, will not, does not
fuck it up. C.D. Wright
Jane Meads fi ft h collection candidly and openly explores the long process that
is death. These resonant poems discover what it means to live, die, and come
home again. Were drawn in by sorrow and grief, but also the joys of celebrating a long life and how simple it is to find laughter and light in the quietest and darkest of moments.
Jane Mead is the author of four collections of poetry, most recently Money Money
Money / Water Water Water (2014). Her poems appear regularly in journals and
anthologies, and shes the recipient of a Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship,
a Whiting Writers Award, and a Lannan Foundation Completion Grant. She
teaches at the low-residency MFA program at Drew University and farms in
Northern California.

House of Water
Matthew Nienow
This boat-builder poet treads on open waters, rocking on unpredictability,

disenchantment, and dreams transformed by reality.
Deeply felt and beautifully built, the poems in Matthew Nienows long-awaited
debut shimmer with hard-won grace. . . . House of Water is a staggering book that
marks the arrival of an important voice in American poetry.Eduardo C. Corral
This debut highlights fatherhood at its peak as it juggles the uncertainty and
deeper meaning of everyday life. The hesitant-yet-curious voice of the poems is
deeply entrenched in the familial, yet also refreshingly open about the crush one
feels when their ideals crash down. How does one build a life, only to be redirected
and start anew?

Johnny Appleseed
Green Dreamer of the American Frontier
Paul Buhle and Noah Van Sciver
Truth is separated from legend in this thorough graphic

historical biography of Johnny Appleseed Chapman.
This is the first scholarly comic art biography of the legendary John Chapman.
Johnny Appleseed made himself famous by spreading the seeds of apple trees from
Pennsylvania to Indiana. He was also an early follower of theologian Emanuel
Swedenborg. Along with apple trees, he offered the seeds of nonviolence and
vegetarianism, good relations with Indians, and peace among the settlers themselves. The story of Chapman operates as a kind of counter-narrative to the glorification of violence, conquest, and the winning of the West in the story of the
Westward movement, and clears up many of the half-myths of Johnny Appleseeds
own life and work. His apples, for instance, were prized for many reasons, but
mainly for the making of hard ciderportable alcohol. His method of operation
was a form of land speculation, purchasing potentially fertile acres on contract
(such as bottom land), planting saplings, reselling the land, and then moving
onward. He had less interest in becoming prosperous than in spreading his own
gospel, based on visions of peace and love.
Paul Buhle, formerly a senior lecturer at Brown University, produces radical
comics. He founded the SDS journal Radical America and the archive Oral History
of the American Left and, with Mari Jo Buhle, is coeditor of the Encyclopedia of the
American Left.
Noah Van Sciver is member of Mad Magazines usual gang of idiots, and the
author of The Hypo and Fante Bukowski.

The third eagerly anticipated collection of digital work

by award-winning artist Kilian Eng.
Since most of the work in the book has been drawn in the computer environment I was glad and surprised how the images opened up in a new way when I saw
them in the printed form. There is definitely something happening when you
can see the work on paper instead of on the screen. It is really the ultimate way
to look and get to know the artwork.K ilian Eng
Object 15 is the third collection in Kilian Engs successful monograph series,
following the acclaimed books Object 5 and Object 10.
Engs images present alternate worlds where the environment plays a great
role. Many of these sequences present visual stories, without any text. He is fascinated with the details that can create these imaginative worlds: colors and
lighting; dimensions and sounds. His inspiration comes from classic and futuristic architecture, surrealism, and science fiction as well as natural and urban
landscapes.
Kilian Eng is one of the most popular and acclaimed digital illustrators working today. His prints of dreamy landscapes and his retro-f uturistic style are admired by many. He is known for his Mondo poster series, designing posters for
Game of Thrones, Argo, Jodorowskys Dune, and Sony PlayStation. He has also designed many acclaimed album covers including soundtracks for Aliens, Oblivion,
and The Knick. Kilian earned a Bachelors and Masters in Graphic Design and
Illustration from Konstfack University of Arts, Craft & Design in Stockholm,
Sweden and has won numerous awards for his illustrative work.

Such a Lovely Little War
Saigon 196163

through the eyes of a young Vietnamese boy.

This riveting, beautifully produced graphic memoir tells the story of the early
years of the Vietnam War as seen through the eyes of a young boy named Marco,
the son of a Vietnamese diplomat and his French wife. The book opens in
America, where the boys father works for the South Vietnamese embassy; there
the boy is made to feel self-conscious about his otherness thanks to schoolmates
who play war games against the so-called Commies. The family is called back
to Saigon in 1961, where the father becomes Prime Minister Ngo Dinh Diems
personal interpreter; as the growing conflict between North and South intensifies, so does turmoil within Marcos family, as his mother struggles to grapple
with bipolar disorder.
Visually powerful and emotionally potent, Such a Lovely Little War is both a
large-scale and intimate study of the Vietnam War as seen through the eyes of
the Vietnamese: a turbulent national history interwined with an equally traumatic familial one.

The Case of Alan Turing
The Extraordinary and Tragic Story of the Legendary Codebreaker
Eric Liberge and Arnaud Delalande

Translated by David Homel
A gripping graphic novel on Alan Turing, the heroic British codebreaker
of World War II later condemned for his homosexuality.
Alan Turing, subject of the Oscar-w inning 2014 film The Imitation Game, was
the brilliant mathematician solicited by the British government to help decipher
messages sent by Germanys Enigma machines during World War II. The work of
Turing and his colleagues at Hut 8 created what became known as the bombe,
which descrambled the German navys messages and saved countless lives and
millions in British goods and merchandise.
Despite his heroics, however, Turing led a secret life as a homosexual. After
a young man with whom he was involved stole money from him, he went to the
police, where he confessed his homosexuality; he was charged with gross in
decency, and only avoided prison after agreeing to undergo chemical castration.
Tragically, he committed suicide two years later.
Authors Liberge and Delalande used once-classified information only available in 2012 to create a biography that is scientifically rigorous yet understandable for the lay reader. Its also a meticulous depiction of World War II, and an
intimate portrayal of a gay man living in an intolerant world.
Delving deeper into Turings life than The Imitation Game, this graphic novel
is a fascinating portrait of this brilliant, complicated, and troubled man.

This extraordinary graphic novel is a powerful denunciation of sexual violence

against women. As seen through the eyes of a twelve-year-old girl named Una, it
takes place in northern England in 1977, as the Yorkshire Ripper, a serial killer
of prostitutes, is on the loose and creating panic among the townspeople. As the
police struggle in their clumsy attempts to find the killer and the headlines in
the local paper become more urgent, a once self-confident Una teaches herself
to lower her gaze in order to deflect attention from boys.
After she is slut-shamed at school for having birth control pills, Una is the
subject of violent acts for which she comes to blame herself. But as the police finally catch up with and identify the killer, Una grapples with the patterns of behavior that led her to believe she was to blame.
Becoming Unbecoming combines various styles, press clippings, photo-based
illustrations, and splashes of color to convey Unas sense of confusion and rage,
as well as sobering statistics on sexual violence against women. The book is a no-
holds-barred indictment of sexual violence against women, and the shame and
blaming of its victims, which also celebrates the empowerment of those able to
gain control over their selves and their bodies.
Una (a pseudonym) is an artist, academic, and comics creator. Becoming
Unbecoming, which took seven years to create, is her first book. She lives in the
United Kingdom.

Conflict Is Not Abuse
Overstating Harm, Community Responsibility,
and the Duty of Repair
Sarah Schulman
Sarah Schulman illuminates the differences between
Conflict and Abuse in this revelatory book that addresses
the contemporary culture of scapegoating.
From intimate relationships to global politics, Sarah Schulman observes a continuum: that inflated accusations of harm are used to avoid accountability.
Illuminating the difference between Conflict and Abuse, Schulman directly addresses our contemporary culture of scapegoating. This deep, brave, and bold
work reveals how punishment replaces personal and collective self-criticism, and
shows why difference is so often used to justify cruelty and shunning. Rooting
the problem of escalation in negative group relationships, Schulman illuminates the ways cliques, communities, families, and religious, racial, and national
groups bond through the refusal to change their self-concept. She illustrates how
Supremacy behavior and Traumatized behavior resemble each other, through a
shared inability to tolerate difference.
This important and sure-to-be-controversial book illuminates such contemporary and historical issues as Black Lives Matter; the sexual violence of women; and
the plight of migrants, people with HIV, and Palestinians. Conflict Is Not Abuse
is a searing rejection of the cultural phenomenon of blame, cruelty, and scape
goating, and shows how those in positions of power exacerbate and manipulate
fear of the other to avoid facing themselves.
Sarah Schulman is a novelist, nonfiction writer, playwright, screenwriter, journalist, and AIDS historian, and the author of eighteen books. A Guggenheim and
Fulbright Fellow, Sarah is a Distinguished Professor of the Humanities at the
City University of New York, College of Staten Island. Her novels published by
Arsenal Pulp Press include Rat Bohemia, Empathy, After Delores, and The Mere
Future. She lives in New York.

The Dad Dialogues
A Correspondence on Fatherhood (and the Universe)
George Bowering and Charles Demers
A poignant, funny correspondence between two generations

of fathers about raising their daughters.
In this unique book of correspondence, two men from different generations

write to each other about the burdens, anxieties, and singular joys of parenthood. Thirtysomething Charles Demers and eighty-year-old George Bowering
are both celebrated authors and the best of friends, and both are the fathers of
daughters. The letters begin as Charles and his wife discover they will become
parents; he expresses his hopes and fears of impending fatherhood, compounded
by his OCD and his own fathers illness, while George recalls his own experiences raising a daughter in the 1970s and his own anxieties about bringing a
child into a troubled world.
Together, their thoughtful, funny, candid missives reveal what fathers know
(or dont know) about raising daughters, as well as themselves and each other.
Their combined observations make for a passionate, funny, and moving portrait
of fatherhood in all its imperfect, beautiful glory.
George Bowering is Canadas first Poet Laureate and an Officer of the Order of
Canada. He is the author of more than eighty books, the most recent of which
include The Hockey Scribbler, Writing the Okanagan, and Pinboy. He lives in
Vancouver, British Columbia.
Charles Demers is a comedian, performer, and writer. His previous books are
The Horrors (Douglas & McIntyre) and Vancouver Special (Arsenal Pulp Press).
He lives in Vancouver, where he teaches writing at the University of British
Columbia.

A Queer Film Classic on 1974s Arabian Nights by Pier Paolo Pasolini, the controversial Italian director who was murdered under mysterious circumstances
in 1975. In what turned out to be the last years of his career, Pasolini turned to
several classic literary works as models for his own radical expansion of cinemas
capacities for telling, showing, and enacting embodiment, nudity, and sexual desires and behaviors.
This book explores the legacy and context of Arabian Nights, in many ways

Jerzy
A Novel
Jerome Charyn
A startling novel about a celebrated author whose life was
warped by war, shrouded in mystery, and broken by scandal.
Jerome Charyn is one of the most important writers in American literature.

M ichael Chabon
One of our finest writers.Jonathan Lethem
One of our most intriguing fiction writers.O, The Oprah Magazine
Charyn skillfully breathes life into historical icons.New Yorker
Jerzy Kosinski was a great enigma of post-W WII literature. When he exploded
onto the American literary scene in 1965 with his bestselling novel The Painted
Bird, he was revered as a Holocaust survivor and a refugee from the world hidden
behind the Soviet Iron Curtain. He won major literary awards, befriended actor
Peter Sellers, who appeared in the screen adaptation of his novel Being There,
and was a guest on talk shows and at the Oscars. But soon the facade began to
crack, and behind the public persona emerged a ruthless social climber, sexual
libertine, and pathological liar who plagiarized his greatest works.
Jerome Charyn lends his unmistakable style to this most American story of
personal disintegration, told through the voices of multiple narratorsa homicidal actor, a dominatrix, and Joseph Stalins daughterwho each provide insights into the shifting facets of Kosinskis personality. The story unfolds like
a Russian nesting doll, eventually revealing the lost child beneath layers of
trauma, while touching on the nature of authenticity, the atrocities of W WII,
the allure of sadomasochism, and the fickleness of celebrity.
Jerome Charyn is the author of, most recently, A Loaded Gun: Emily Dickinson for
the 21st Century, Bitter Bronx: Thirteen Stories, I Am Abraham: A Novel of Lincoln
and the Civil War, and The Secret Life of Emily Dickinson: A Novel.

LaSalles stories are subtle, evocative, hauntinga nd brilliantly written.
K irkus Reviews
The twelve stories of Sleeping Mask, written in propulsive, fluid prose, introduce readers to remarkable characters. They include a child soldier sent to raid
a girls boarding school, a Virginia Woolf scholar surviving cancer, a desperate
writer living under fascism in a futuristic Latin America, the spirits of recently
deceased college students on a tour of the Muse dOrsay in Paris, and a middle-
aged man transported back to his childhood, where he is led out to sea by his
mothers ghost.
LaSalles tantalizing fictions are evocative of many of the great innovators
of postmodern literature, from Jorge Luis Borges to Vladimir Nabokov, while
charting a path entirely their own. Through all of their stylistic pyrotechnics
these stories never forsake rich characterization and plotting to probe the deepest parts of the contemporary human condition, such as the nature of erotic desire, the legacy of art and artistry, the power of grief and fear, and the horror of
war and violence.
Peter LaSalle is the author of several books of fiction, including the story collections Tell Borges If You See Him, recipient of the Flannery OConnor Award,
and What I Found Out About Her, winner of the Richard Sullivan Prize in Short

It has now been almost fifty years since linguistic experts began studying Black
English as a legitimate speech variety, arguing to the public that it is different
from Standard English, not a degradation of it. Yet false assumptions and con
troversies still swirl around what it means to speak and sound Black. In his first
book devoted solely to the form, structure, and development of Black English,
John McWhorter clearly explains its fundamentals and rich history while carefully examining the cultural, educational, and political issues that have undermined recognition of this transformative, empowering dialect. Talking Back,
Talking Black takes us on a fascinating tour of a nuanced and complex language
that has moved beyond Americas borders to become a dynamic force for todays
youth culture around the world.
John McWhorter teaches linguistics, Western civilization, music history, and
American studies at Columbia University. A New York Times best-selling author and TED speaker, he is a columnist for Time and a regular contributor to the
Atlantic, Wall Street Journal, and Washington Post. His books on language include The Power of Babel, Our Magnificent Bastard Tongue, What Language Is,

Little Cyclone
Second Edition
Airey Neave
Originally published in the years after the war,

Little Cyclone is a mesmerising tale of the best of humanity.
A true story of extraordinary bravery, betrayal, tragedy and triumph.

Daily Telegraph
On a hot afternoon in August 1941, a twenty-four-year-old Belgian woman walked
into the British consulate in Bilbao, neutral Spain, and demanded to see the consul. She presented him with a British soldier she had smuggled all the way from
Brussels, through occupied France, and over the Pyrenees. It is a journey she
will make countless times thereafter, at unthinkable danger to her own life.
Her name is Andre de Jongh, though she will come to be known as the Little
Cyclone in deference to her extraordinary courage and tenacity. She is an inspiration. From nursing wounded Allied servicemen, de Jongh would go on to establish the Comet Line, the most famous escape line of W WII, one that saved
the lives of more than eight hundred airmen and soldiers stranded behind enemy
lines. The risks, however, would be enormous; the cost, unspeakably tragic.
Her story is shot through with the constant terror of discovery and inter
ceptionof late-night knocks at the door, disastrous moonlit river crossings,
Gestapo infiltrators, firing squads, and concentration camps. It is also a classic
true story of fear overcome by giddying bravery.

Auntie Poldi and the Sicilian Lions
Mario Giordano
Translated by John Brownjohn
Auntie Poldi, sassy, brassy, and sixty, moves to Sicily for a

quiet alcohol-fuelled retirement. A murder spoils her plans.
This is the first novel in a charming new mystery series set in Sicily and laced with
Italian sensuality and humor. It features an amateur sleuth, the sassy and foul-
mouthed Auntie Poldi.
Recently widowed Poldi moves to Sicily in order to quietly drink herself to
death with a sea view, but fate intervenes. When she finds the corpse of a young
man on the beach, his face blown off with a sawn-off shotgun, she becomes a potential suspect in his murder case. Poldi soon falls for the gorgeous Commissario
Montana, who has been assigned to lead the case. They form an investigative
and romanticpartnership. The delightful details of this romance, and the extreme awkwardness of Poldis retelling it to her mortified nephew, are some of
the novels many high points.
Sicily, a vivid backdrop, is an island of people obsessed with food. They talk
passionately about which remote village produces the best olives, pistachio ice
cream, oyster mushrooms, mandarins, and marzipan, and about which restaurant serves the best pasta al nero di sepia or canolli a la crema di ricotta. And there is
never a direct reference to the mafia (an invention of those fascists in the North),
even when confronted with murders committed with sawn-off shotguns.
Mario Giordano, the son of Italian immigrants, was born in Munich in 1963 and
studied psychology at the University of Dsseldorf. He writes novels, books for
adolescents, and screenplays. He lives in Cologne, Germany. Auntie Poldi and the
Sicilian Lions is his first mystery novel.

The Days Last Light Reddens the Leaves
of the Copper Beech
Stephen Dobyns
Best-selling poet and novelist Stephen Dobyns focuses on the hard truth
of mortality, including sonnets about the recent death of his wife.
This new collection from best-selling poet and novelist Stephen Dobyns focuses
on the hard, ephemeral truth of mortality, including the section Sixteen Sonnets
for Isabel about the recent death of his wife. In true Dobyns fashion, these poems
grip and guide readers into a state of empathy, ultimately raising the question of
how one lives and endures in the world.
Recognitions
The awful imbalance that occurs with age
when you suddenly see that more friends
have died, than remain alive. And at times
the memory seems so real that the latest
realization of a death can become a second,
smaller death. All those talks cut off in mid-
sentence. All those plans tossed in the trash.
What can you do but sit out on the porch
when evening comes? The days last light
reddens the leaves of the copper beach.
Stephen Dobyns is the best-selling author of twenty-three novels, fourteen
books of poetry, two collections of essays, and one book of short stories. Among
his many honors and awards are fellowships from the National Endowment for
the Arts and the Guggenheim Foundation. Dobyns has worked as a reporter
for the Detroit News and has written reviews for such publications as the New
York Times, Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, Philadelphia Inquirer, and Times
Literary Supplement. He has taught at various academic institutions, including
Sarah Lawrence College, the Warren Wilson College MFA Program for Writers,
the University of Iowa, Syracuse University, and Boston University. He currently

who magnetized his French paramours
at dinner parties as an amusing diversion
from his most serious studies of electricity
and the ethereal fire. I like thinking about
how he would have stood on tiptoe to kiss
their buzzing lips and everyone would gasp
and clap for the blue spark between them.

So. Only so. And if the two of us

Are pitched alone against the world,
That we can instantly swing about
From face-to-face
And stand back to back.
Would that be too much?
But a poem cannot be written
If one awaits the bullet
From the back,
And not from the front.
Knuts Skujenieks was born in 1936 in Latvia, where he studied philology and
history at the University of Latvia. In 1962, he was convicted of anti-Soviet activity and served a seven-year prison sentence in the Mordovia gulag. While there,
he wrote many poems in letters to his wife, which were first published in 2002
as Sekla sniega (Seed in Snow). A polyglot, Skujenieks has translated into Latvian
such poets as Federico Garcia Lorca, Yannis Ritsos, Pablo Neruda, Csar Vallejo,
Konstanty Ildefons Galczinsky, and Tomas Transtrmer. He has received the
highest literary and state honors in Latvia, as well as awards across Europe, including Swedens Tomas Transtrmer prize, and his poetry has been translated
into more than thirty languages. He currently lives in Salaspils, Latvia.

Its 1943 and the world is at war.

Hope for victory rests on the wings of Americas Liberator, the B-2 4 bomber.
And with more than nine million Americans on the front lines, there is only one
way for the assembly plants to produce enough planes to meet the demand
recruit women by the thousands into the workforce.
Audrey Draper is committed to the war effort, and beyond that, to finding
her own personal and financial independence. And she is not alone. Ruth Evans
also chooses to seek employment. As a waitress living on her own, she not only
searches for freedom, but also a way to fulfill an important promise. And then
theres young Amelia, a fifteen-year-old rape victim who is being forced to return
to a dark and dangerous home. Audrey, Ruth, and a handful of these newly in
dependent women must risk everything they have fought so hard to achieve to
give one of their own a fighting chance to survive. Set against the backdrop of a
rapidly changing world, these women capture the spirit of the times through their
determination, ingenuity, and enduring courage.

in their lot together, despite their underlying fear of being found out and fired.

Breaking the Trance
A Practical Guide for Parenting the Screen-Dependent Child
George T. Lynn, MA, LMHC

With Cynthia C. Johnson, MA
Strategies for parents to understand and create a healthy family
relationship for recreational screen media use at home.
Screen media use (accessing digital content on tablets, cell phones, etc.) is quickly
replacing traditional family time, and it is accepted that nothing can be done.
With few resources available, many parents are driven to look for a new framework to make the best decisions for their families.
Written as an easy-to-follow guide for parents who want to understand recreational screen media use in their homes, Breaking the Trance does not blame
parents, nor vilify technology as a whole, but rather provides easy and effective strategies to implement immediately. Using clinical examples and specific
guidelines, the authors equip parents with tools for measuring the presence of
an issue with screen media use toward getting screen dependency under control.
Ultimately, parents will be able to establish a screen control plan based on their
own familys values that works and can be enforced.
George T. Lynn, MA, LMHC, is a psychotherapist from Bellevue, Washington,
who has pioneered the use of psychotherapy for adults and children with neuro
psychological issues. Lynn is the author of four previous books on the topic of
parenting children with neurological differences and has appeared on National
Public Radio, Air America, and The Maury Povich Show to talk about his work
with children who exhibit extreme behavior problems.
Cynthia C. Johnson, MA, is an educator and founding director of the Venture

Finding the connection with a loved one afflicted with dementia is a challenge millions of people face: One in ten Americans has a family member with Alzheimers,
and one in three knows someone with the disease. This book offers care partners
practical, hands-on ideas for meaningful, creative activities they can do with their
patients, family members, or friends who have dementia. It also includes creative
tips for busy care partners, offering quick and easy forms of renewal and respite.
Too often, people living with dementia are entertained instead of engaged.
Research shows that artistic and imaginative activities reduce the need for psychotropic medications. Doing activities together also increases social inter
actions, builds positive energy, and adds a sense of discovery to the day.
Connecting in the Land of Dementia also features the innovative ideas of seventy thought leaders in the field of dementia and creativity. Both family and professional care partners can use these activities, involving music, movement,
cooking, nature, storytelling, poetry, movies, technology, and more, to engage
and connect with people who are living with dementia.
Deborah Shouse is a writer, speaker, creativity catalyst, and dementia advocate.
Her first book in the Love in the Land series is a bestseller for Central Recovery
Press. Her writing has appeared in a variety of publications including the
Washington Post, Huffington Post, Natural Awakenings, Readers Digest, Newsweek,

Starved
A Nutrition Doctors Journey from Empty to Full
Anne McTiernan, MD, PhD
One womans gripping coming-of-age story of her triumph

over heartbreaking emotional and physical deprivation
to become a successful doctor.
Set in the working-class, Irish-A merican Boston of the 1950s and 60s, Starved is
an inspirational coming-of-age story. At the young age of four, Anne McTiernan
was left by her mother at a Catholic boarding school where she was emotionally
and physically starved. After a doctor forced Annes mother to bring her home,
her mother used physical and verbal abuse to take out her frustrations on the defenseless little girl.
Anne transitions from a malnourished state to binge eating to obesity. At age
fifteen, without love and support from her family, Anne is forced to take full responsibility for her own life through hard work, undaunted intelligence, and
persistence.
Today a leading doctor and researcher on obesity and health, Anne has
helped thousands of women improve their relationship with food, but this is
not their story. Starved is the story of how Anne helped herself and turned the
adversity she encountered as a child into a strength and set of skills that would
later help her meet the demands of her career.
Anne McTiernan, MD, PhD, is a physician who conducts research on the effects of diet, exercise, and weight loss on cancer and health. Currently, she is a
professor at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and the University of
Washington Schools of Public Health and Medicine in Seattle, Washington.

An innovative guide for professionals that establishes an extraordinary approach to understanding the dynamics of addiction and the recovery process.
RecoveryMind Training (RMT) includes state-of-the-art information on neuro
science and behavioral techniques.

drugsincluding alcohol. The RMT model describes the dynamics of active addiction with regard to its effects on the brainmotivations, drives, memories,
and cognitive distortionswith the term AddictBrain. Recovery is facilitated through the learning of a structured set of skills that promote changes
thoughts, beliefs, and actions, and brings about RecoveryMind.
RMT challenges readers to see addiction from a different perspective and
introduces a structured treatment model that will put order to the chaos typically found with addiction.

White Elephant
Mako Idemitsu
Translated by Juliet Winters Carpenter
Sakiko cannot say no. Hiroko is tired of hearing it. Two sisters,
straddling American and Japanese culture, navigate womanhood.
With a deeply-imbedded indebtedness to their father Morimasa Morimoto, a

self-made man in post-war Japan, two sisters struggle to uphold a family legacy.
Sakiko moves to the fantastically free United States. Fragile and unsure in 1960s
San Francisco, she clings to her brazen artist husband for stability. Hiroko, headstrong and irreverent, uses her fathers money to move to New York, promising to
become a famous artist. Intolerant of weakness in others, she crumbles in the face
of her own shortcomings.
From catty carpooling moms to manipulative stoners, and abortions to adultery, White Elephant is a vivid book from a seasoned artist turned writer. Mako
Idemitsu, daughter of Rockefeller-esque petroleum executive Sazo Idemitsu,
reconfigures her own family discord to reflect on the binds of being female in
this gorgeous English translation.
Born and raised in Tokyo, Japan, Mako Idemitsu immigrated to the United States
in 1963, where she met and married abstract expressionist painter Sam Francis.
Disillusioned with housewife life, she picked up an 8mm camera and became
a pioneer in experimental video and the feminist art movement of the 1970s.
Internationally acclaimed, her work has been featured in major museums worldwide and is included in the MoMAs permanent collection. This is her debut novel.
Award-w inning translator Juliet Winters Carpenter has rendered the works of
Abe Kobo, Fumiko Enchi, and Minae Mizumura into English. She is the first person to have won the prestigious Japan-US Friendship Commission Prize for the
Translation of Japanese Literature twice.

who better to connect us than a chowhound communications professor? A.V.
Crofts has spent decades eating (and learning) her way around the world. Shes
studied in China, taught in Italy, and conducted humanitarian communications
trainings in war-torn Sudan. Here, she traces a lifetime of meals across countries and continents, exploring the ways that food ties us together. With warm,
thoughtful prose, Crofts invites us to the only coffee shop in Kunming; to a home-
cooked feast at a civil rights pilgrimage in Alabama; to a surprise Thanksgiving in
Germany; and to her annual Lunar New Year dumpling party in Seattle.
This full-color visual tour-de-force will delight foodies, armchair travelers,
and anyone whos ever learned a little something from a special meal. Photos,
sketchnotes, and other ephemera from Croftss globetrotting coalesce into a
truly beautiful meditation on how food nourishes community.
A.V. Crofts works at the University of Washington as a Senior Lecturer in the
Department of Communication and as a clinical instructor in the Department of
Global Health. Her work has been published in Gastronomica, Saveur, and on her
popular blog, Pepper for the Beast.

Whistleblower at the CIA
An Insiders Account of the Politics of Intelligence
Melvin A. Goodman
A former CIA analyst tells the inside story of

political corruption inside the CIA and what he did to stop it.
Mel Goodman has spent the last few decades telling us whats gone wrong with
American intelligence and the American military . . . he is also telling us how to
save ourselves.Seymour M. Hersh, The New Yorker
Melvin Goodmans long career as a respected intelligence analyst at the CIA,
specializing in US-Soviet relations, ended abruptly after twenty-four years. In
1990, Goodman resigned when he could no longer tolerate the corruption he
witnessed at the highest levels of the Agency. In 1991 he went public, blowing
the whistle on top-level officials and leading the opposition against the appointment of Robert Gates as CIA director. In the widely covered Senate hearings,
Goodman charged that Gates and others had subverted the process and the
ethics of intelligence by deliberately misinforming the White House about
major world events and covert operations.
In this breathtaking expos, Goodman tells the whole story. Retracing his
career with the Agency, he presents a rare insiders account of the inner workings of Americas intelligence community and the corruption, intimidation, and
misinformation that lead to disastrous foreign policy decisions. An invaluable
and historic look into one of the most secretive and influential branches of US
governmenta nd a wake-up call for the need to reform its practices.
Melvin A. Goodman served as a Senior Analyst and Division Chief at the CIA
from 1966 to 1990. His writing has appeared in the New York Times, Washington
Post, Harpers, and many others. He is the author of six books on US intelligence
and international security.

From hatemongering tactics in the run-up to the 2016 presidential race, to the
increasing number of mass shootings, to excessive police violence, evidence
that America is at war with itself is everywhere around us. The question is not
whether or not its happening, but how to understand whats driving the crisis and how to prevent conditions from getting worse. In this insightful book,
Henry A. Giroux offers a far-reaching critique of the economic interests, cultural dynamics, and political forces at work in the nations shift toward increasingly abusive forms of power, and what can and should be done to resist them.
Reflecting on a wide range of social issues, Giroux contrasts Donald Trumps
America with Sandra Blands to understand who really benefits from politically
fueled intolerance for immigrants, communities of color, Muslims, low-income
families, and those who challenge state and corporate power. A passionate advocate for civil rights and the importance of the imagination, Giroux argues that
only through widespread social investment in democracy and education can the
common good hope to prevail over the increasingly concentrated influence of
extreme right-w ing politicians and self-serving economic interests.
Henry A. Girouxs most recent books include The Violence of Organized Forgetting
and Americas Addiction to Terrorism. A prolific writer and political commentator, he has appeared in a wide range of media, including the New York Times and
Moyers & Company.

Motherland Hotel
Yusuf Atlgan
Translated by Fred Stark
Camus meets Orhan Pamuk via Freud in this existentialist novel

by the father of Turkish modernism.
My heroes are Ahmet Hamdi Tanpnar, Ouz Atay, and Yusuf Atlgan. I have
become a novelist by following their footsteps. . . . I love Yusuf Atlgan; he manages to remain local although he benefits from Faulkners works and the Western
traditions.Orhan Pamuk
Zebercet, the last surviving member of a once-prosperous Ottoman family, is the
owner of the Motherland Hotel, a rundown establishment in a remote Anatolian
village. A lonely, middle-aged introvert, his simple life is structured by daily administrative tasks and regular, routine sex with the hotels maid. One day, a
beautiful woman from the capital comes to spend the night, promising to return
next week, and suddenly Zebercets insular, mechanical existence is dramati
cally and irrevocably changed. The mysterious womans presence has tantalized
him, and he begins to live his days in fevered anticipation of her return. But the
week passes, and then another, and as his fantasies become more and more obsessive, Zebercet gradually loses his grip on reality.
Motherland Hotel was hailed as the novel of the year in Turkey when it was
published in 1973, astonishing critics with its experimental style, its intense psychological depth, and its audacious description of sexual obsession. Zebercet was
compared to such memorable characters as Quentin Compson in Faulkners The
Sound and the Fury and Meursault in Albert Camuss The Stranger. While author
Yusuf Atlgan had already achieved considerable literary fame, Motherland Hotel
cemented his reputation as one of Turkeys premier modernists.

A French literary classic since its 1962 publication, Lost Profiles is a retrospective of a crucial period in modernism, written by a co-founder of the surrealist
movement, Philippe Soupault. Beginning with a reminiscence of the Parisian
branch of the international Dada movement in the late 1910s, and its transformation into surrealism, Lost Profiles ushers readers into encounters with a variety
of literary lions. We meet an elegant Marcel Proust, renting five adjoining rooms
at an expensive hotel to contain the silence needed to produce Remembrance of
Things Past; an exhausted James Joyce putting himself through grueling translation sessions for Ulysses; and an enigmatic Guillaume Apollinaire in search
of the ultimate objet trouv. Soupault sketches lively portraits of surrealist precursors like Pierre Reverdy and Blaise Cendrars, a moving account of his tragic
fellow surrealist Ren Crevel, and the story of his unlikely friendship with right-
wing anti-V ichy critic George Bernanos. The collection ends with essays on two
modernist forerunners, Charles Baudelaire and Henri Rousseau. With an afterword by Ron Padgett recounting his meeting with Soupault in the late sixties,
an informative translators preface by Alan Bernheimer, and a foreword by Mark
Polizzotti, Lost Profiles confirms Soupaults place in the vanguard of twentiethcentury literature.
Philippe Soupault (18971990) served in the French army during W WI and
subsequently joined the Dada movement. In 1919, he collaborated with Andr
Breton on the automatic text Les Champs Magntiques, the foundation of the sur
realist movement. In the years that followed, he wrote novels and journalism,
directed Radio Tunis in Tunisia, and worked for UNESCO.

Mephistos and Other Poems
Michael McClure
Eco-poetic innovations and ecstatic meditations

from a founding member of the Beat Generation.
A landmark work of bio-romanticism, Mephistos and Other Poems is the first

completely new collection in five years from legendary Beat and San Francisco
Renaissance poet Michael McClure, reflecting his interests in mammal consciousness and ecological survival. The title sequence stems from McClures
ongoing grafting experiment, growing new poems from fragments of previous ones. Some Fringes is a series of haiku-like nature poems, while the
seventeen-part Rose Breaths derives from the poets practice of meditation.
The freestanding poems grouped under the title Being pay homage to many
of McClures collaborators and fellow travelers, such as Bruce Conner, Terry
Riley, and Dave Haselwood. The book climaxes with Song Heavy, recounting
McClures recent encounter with a beached whale in Rockport, Massachusetts,
and recalling his classic For the Death of 100 Whales, which he read at the Six
Gallery in 1955t he inaugural moment of American eco-poetics.
Michael McClure is an award-w inning American poet, playwright, songwriter,
and novelist. After moving from Kansas to San Francisco as a young man, he was
one of the five poets who participated in the Six Gallery reading that featured
the public debut of Allen Ginsbergs landmark poem Howl. A key figure of
the Beat Generation, McClure is immortalized as Pat McLear in Jack Kerouacs
novels The Dharma Bums and Big Sur. He also participated in the sixties counter
culture alongside musicians like Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison. McClure remains active as a poet, essayist, and playwright and lives with his wife, Amy, in
the San Francisco Bay Area.

The Hidden Keys
Andr Alexis
Giller Prize winner Andr Alexiss contemporary take on

the quest narrative is an instant classic.
Although the Green Dolphin is a bar of ill repute, its there that Tancred Palmieri,
a thief with elegant and erudite tastes, meets Willow Azarian, an aging heroin addict. She reveals to Tancred that her very wealthy father has recently passed away,
leaving each of his five children a mysterious object that provides one clue to the
whereabouts of a large inheritance. Willow enlists Tancred to steal these objects
from her siblings and help her solve the puzzle.
A Japanese screen, a painting that plays music, an aquavit bottle, a framed
poem, and a model of Frank Lloyd Wrights Fallingwater: Tancred is lured into
this beguiling quest, and even though Willow dies before the puzzle is solved,
he presses on.
As he tracks down the treasure, he must enlist the help of Alexander von
Wurfel, conceptual artist and taxidermist to the wealthy, and fend off Willows
heroin dealers, a young albino named Nigger Colby and his sidekick, Sigismund
Freud Luxemburg, a clubfooted psychopath, both of whom are eager to get
their paws on this supposed pot of gold. And he must mislead Detective Daniel
Mandelshtam, his most adored friend.
Inspired by a reading of Robert Louis Stevensons Treasure Island, The Hidden
Keys questions what it means to be honorable, what it means to be faithful, and
what it means to sin.
Andr Alexis was born in Trinidad and grew up in Canada. His most recent
novel, Fifteen Dogs, won the prestigious Scotiabank Giller Prize, awarded annually

Shot-Blue
Jesse Ruddock
Prose with rules of its own captures the joy of friends

in harmony, and the special hell of their discord.
Stunning and just so gracefully told. Ruddocks landscape and characters are told
by heart and her fierce and beautiful language makes you feel it.Naja Marie Aidt,
author of Rock, Paper, Scissors
Rachel is a young single mother living with her son, Tristan, on a lake that borders the unchanneled northremote, nearly inhospitable. She does what she has
to do to keep them alive. But soon, and unexpectedly, Tristan will have to live
alone, his youth unprotected and rough, even brutal, mirroring the wild open
place that is his only home, and that will be overrun by strangersstrangers inhabiting the lodge that has replaced his home, strangers that make him fight, or
talk, or even love, when he doesnt want to.
A resonant book of first love, first loss, then second love, Shot-Blue brings to
life the dance of consciousness, how in mind and heart we do not exist alone on
our own terms.
The road was like a portage: an opening that lets you in but makes no promise to
bring you out on another side. Maybe the road narrowed to a dead end or was blocked
by a swamp raised by a beaver dam. Maybe it led to a place they werent welcome. She
walked through the cut slowly and stopped, her dark hair falling across her shoulders
heavily, and Tristan imagined that she meant to let her hair sweep the ground as it did.
Most boys would have run out to meet their mothers. But he knew he couldnt understand. She was always telling him, you cant understand everything.
Born in Guelph and based in New York, Jesse Ruddock first left Canada on a
hockey scholarship to Harvard. Her writing and photographs have appeared in
the NewYorker.com, BOMB Magazine, Music & Literature, and Vice. Shot-Blue is

Haircuts by Children and Other Evidence
for a New Social Contract

A cultural planners immodest proposal: change how we think

We live in an adultitarian state, where the rules are based on very adult priorities and understandings of reality. Young people are disenfranchised and
powerless; they understand theyre subject to an authoritarian regime, whether
they buy into it or not. But their unique perspectives also offer incredible potential for innovation.
Cultural planner and performance director Darren ODonnell has been collaborating with children for years through his company, Mammalian Diving
Reflex; their most well-k nown piece, Haircuts by Children (exactly what it
sounds like) has been performed internationally. ODonnell suggests that working with children in the cultural industries in a manner that maintains a large
space for their participation can be understood as a pilot for a vision of a very different role for young people in the worldone that the UN Committee on the
Rights of the Child considers a new social contract.
Haircuts by Children is a practical proposal for the inclusion of children in
as many realms as possible, not only as an expression of their rights, but as
a way to intervene in the world and to disrupt the stark economic inequalities
perpetuated by the status quo. Deeply practical and wildly whimsical, Haircuts
by Children might actually make total sense.

3 Summers
Lisa Robertson
Inspired by Flauberts Three Tales and Steins Three Lives,
a grappling with time, form, and embodiment.
Robertson proves hard to explain but easy to enjoy. . . . Dauntlessly and resourcefully intellectual, Robertson can also be playful or blunt. . . . She wields language
expertly, even beautifully.The New York Times
Robertson makes intellect seductive; only her poetry could turn swooning into
a critical gesture.The Village Voice
Organs, hormones, toxins, and lesions: what is a body? In 3 Summers, Lisa
Robertson takes up her earlier concerns with form and literary precedent and
turns toward the timeliness of embodiment. What is forms time? Here the form of
life called a poem speaks with the bodys mortality, its thickness, and its play. The
ten poem-sequences in 3 Summers inflect a history of textual voicesincluding
Lucretius, Karl Marx, Aby Warburg, Gilles Deleuze, and the Sogdian Sutrasin
a lyricism that insists on analysis and revolt, as well as the pleasures of description.
The poet explores the mysterious oddness of the body, with its languor and persistence, to test how it shapes the materiality of thinking, which includes rivers and
forests. But in these poems landscapes, the time of nature is inherently political.
Now only time is wild, and only timeembodied here in Lisa Robertsons forceful cadencescan tell.
Recite your poem to your aunt.
I threw myself to the ground.
Where were you in the night?
In a school among the pines.
What was the meaning of the dream?

Night & Ox
Jordan Scott
Scott is a cosmoglot of the throats ravine, and this is his manic, pandemonic
article of faith.Andrew Zawacki
POETRY
October
4 x 7 | 80 pp
eBook available
Night & Ox is a long poem working its interruptions to a degree where its broken by the will to live. A poem that invokes expansive loneliness, where the poets
emotional response is to endure. A crushed line of astral forms and anatomy
in entropy; it is a poem that nurtures vulnerability: some soft-footed embryo
sounds against fatherhood and languages viscera. Night & Ox possesses a feral
minimalism for those too tired and too frantic with joy to cope with narrative.
Jordan Scott is the author of Silt, Blert and, with Stephen Collis, Decomp. Scott
is the 2015/16 Writer-in-R esidence at Simon Fraser University. He lives in
Vancouver, British Columbia.

In on the Great Joke

Laura Broadbent
What do you get when you cross Lao Tzu and an application for a university teaching application? What do you get when you give W. G. Sebald and
Clarice Lispector the ability to speak from the afterlife? What happens if a girl
is stopped at a red light for an entire year? In on the Great Joke is a palace of hybridity, where film structure informs poetry, poetry alters the essay, and the
essay recalibrates the joke. Broadbent has lent her ear to the dead, the living,
the voiceless, to give us the punchline of what it means to be intellectually alive.

The Revolutionaries Try Again
Mauro Javier Cardenas
Three childhood friends reunite to transform Ecuador, only to find

their idealism has succumbed to the cynicism of their fathers.
Extravagant, absurd, and self-aware, The Revolutionaries Try Again plays out
against the lost decade of Ecuadors austerity and the stymied idealism of three
childhood friendsan expat, a bureaucrat, and a playwrightwho are as sure
about the evils of dictatorship as they are unsure of everything else, including
each other.
From The Revolutionaries Try Again:
Everyone thinks theyre the chosen ones, Masha wrote on Antonios manuscript. See
About Schmidt with Jack Nicholson. Then she quoted from Hope Against Hope by
Nadezhda Mandelstam, because she was sure Antonio hadnt read her yet: Can a
man really be held accountable for his own actions? His behavior, even his character, is
always in the merciless grip of the age, which squeezes out of him the drop of good or evil
that it needs from him. In San Francisco, besides the accumulation of wealth, what does
the age ask of your so called protagonist? No wonder he never returns to Ecuador.
Mauro Javier Cardenas grew up in Guayaquil, Ecuador, and graduated with
a degree in Economics from Stanford University. Excerpts from his first novel,
The Revolutionaries Try Again, have appeared in Conjunctions, the Antioch
Review, Guernica, Witness, and BOMB. His interviews with and essays on
Lszl Krasznahorkai, Javier Marias, Horacio Castellanos Moya, Juan Villoro,
and Antonio Lobo Antunes have appeared in Music & Literature, San Francisco
Chronicle, BOMB, and the Quarterly Conversation.

Camanchaca
Diego Ziga
Translated by Megan McDowell
On a long, near-silent drive with his father, a young man

surveys the worn-out puzzle of his broken family.
An unexpected voice, a new landscapea sober, risky, unsettling and surprising book.A lejandro Zambra
Diego Ziga is the author of an extraordinary first novel. Camanchaca is written with austerity and a laconic and fragmented style that is like the shreds
through which we are able to catch glimpses of the landscape through the fog.
Patricio Pron
A long drive across Chiles Atacama desert, traversing the worn-out puzzle
of a broken familya young mans corrosive intimacy with his mother, the obtrusive cheer of his absentee father, his uncles unexplained deathoccupies
the heart of this novel. Camanchaca is a low fog pushing in from the sea, its
moisture sustaining a near-barren landscape. Camanchaca is the discretion that
makes a lifelong grief possible. Sometimes, the silences are what bind us.

Fish in Exile
Vi Khi Nao
The loss of a child takes mythological, magical casts

distortions that allow us to see the contours of grief more clearly.
Praise for Vi Khi Nao:

Here I was allowed to forget for a while that that is what books aspire to tell, so
taken was I by more enthralling and mysterious pleasures.Carole Maso
How do you bear the death of a child? With fishtanks and jellyfish burials,
Persephones pomegranate seeds, and affairs with the neighbors. Fish in Exile
spins unimaginable loss through classical and magical tumblers, distorting our
view so that we can see the contours of a parents grief all the more clearly.
Vi Khi Nao was born in Long Khanh, Vietnam. Her work includes fiction, film,
and cross-genre collaboration, and her poetry collection, The Old Philosopher, was
the winner of 2014 Nightboat Poetry Prize. She holds an MFA in fiction from

How We Speak to One Another
Edited with an introduction by Ander Monson
and Craig Reinbold
The best of Essay Dailyeach piece features a writer in conversation

with and about an essay, whatever its variety, contemporary and classic.
The essay is rhizomatic: it builds off and shoots out conversations between us
every time we read, reread, or write. When we speak back to others we amplify
ourselves and get a foothold in an ongoing conversation. How We Speak to One
Another collects those conversations, giving context to a genre and deepening
the flexibility and vitality of its many forms.

Imaginary Vessels
Paisley Rekdal
Photographs by Andrea Modica
Incorporating photography and rigorous research, Imaginary Vessels

makes history personal and the personal historical.
Compelling, appealing, cinematic . . . Rekdal refreshes the meaning and the

image of being displaced in this world.The Boston Globe
Rekdals work deeply satisfies, for it witnesses and wonders over the necessary
struggles of human awareness and being.R ain Taxi
In acknowledging the disappointing facts of our existence and singing her way
into its amazement, she has created poetry that lives alongside the misery we
sometimes witnessa nd sometimes cause.Slate
Paisley Rekdal questions how identity and being inhabit metaphorical and personified vessels, from blown glass and soap bubbles to skulls unearthed at the
Colorado State Mental Institution. Whether writing short lyrics or a sonnet sequence celebrating Mae West, Rekdals intellectually inquisitive and carefully
researched poems delight in sound, meter, and head-on engagement. The poems
are illustrated with twelve Andrea Modica photographs.

Diamond Lil. Shes you, you say. Youre her. Shes I. O

Paisley Rekdal is the author of four books of poetry, a book of personal essays,
and a mixed media book of photography, poetry, fiction, and non-fiction. She lives
in Salt Lake City and teaches at the University of Utah.

all the lights, the way that talking casually runs and flows over itself and intertwines with what others are saying. These plainspoken poems rediscover the relationship between talking and thinking as they weave among enthusiastic jags
about sex and love, theater, music, New Orleans, numbness, ghosts, wolves, history, violence, rescue, art, marriage, mothers, fathers, and children.

After Katrina, I took the diet where you eat meat,

and lost almost a hundred pounds from a surfeit
of bacon, sauted pork medallions, beef & lamb.
The weight fell away like a knights armor
after a joust. I bought shirts at a regular store.
I played softball and ran bases, bounded them,
as if on a new, more forgiving planet. And
I went crazy, evened out, broke down again . . .

Selected Poems and Translations
Robert Hedin
There isnt a misstep on a single page . . . let whats there
wash over you with its beauty.Ted Kooser
Robert Hedin is one of the quietest, most spiritually sensate poets of our time.
Olga Broumas
Every poem is a creation myth, writes Robert Hedin. This long overdue retrospective, spanning forty years of patient and painstaking work, highlights Hedins
original poems, translations of Norwegian poets, and includes the aphoristic
essay Field Notes. Hedins poemselegant, spare, and devoid of artifice
detail themes of Midwestern life, the natural world, ocean liners, and airships.
A profound, essential volume.
Unable to Write, I Decide to Move Out with the Finches
This morning Im going to drag my desk
Out into the backyard and set it down
By the birdbath, near the flowerbed
Overgrown with weeds. And the black
Leather armchair where I like to read
Ill lug out under the two young maples,
Along with the Persian rug, the tall
Goose-necked lamp, the books, the CDs,
Even the huge unruly fern in the corner.
Im going to haul it all outside, out
Into the open air where its quiet,
Where I wont be bothered . . .

Banana Palace
Dana Levin
With dreamy clarity, Dana Levin gives us a powerful sense of self
in a strange and fraught landscape.
Images that are satisfyingly clear . . . and excitingly inexplicable.

R obert Pinsky, Washington Post
Intimate and hypnotic . . . whether turning her gaze inward or outward, these
poems question the moral, aesthetic, and metaphysical needs that poetry exists
to fill.Ploughshares
Levins work is phenomenological; it details how it feels to be an embodied consciousness making its way through the world.Boston Review
In her newest collection, Dana Levin uses humor, jump-cut imagery, and popular
culture references in preparation for the approaching apocalypse. Against a backdrop of Facebook, cat memes, and students searching their smartphones for a
definition of the soul, Levin draws upon a culture of limited attention spans and
searches for greater spiritual meaning. The poems in Banana Palace are elliptical
by design, the lines often trailing off into a white space of their own making, as if
flirting with and resolving in their own isolation.

Wikipedia articles are never finalized. In Dean Raders energized and inventive
new book, the poet considers identity of self and society as a Wikipedia page
sculpted and transformed by the ever-present push and pull of politics, culture,
and unseen forces. And, in the case of Rader, how identity can be affected by the
likes of Paul Klees paintings and the characters from the childrens stories about
Frog and Toad. Raders cagey voice is full of humor and inquiry, warmly inviting
readers to fully participate in the creation.

Likenesses
Heather Tone
Introduction by Nick Flynn
Winner of the APR/Honickman First Book Prize.
Its almost impossible to explain why the playfulness of Heather Tones Likenesses
produces such delight. . . . Freedom, light, leggerezza, speed, and depth. Crystal
abyss, nothing, a touch of Kabbalah. Perfect projections of shades between
death and life, a scent of Eden. Like four-year-old boys throwing clumps of
mud at each other, bursting into happy laughter. These lines scream with joy.
B oston Review
Likenesses was selected by Nick Flynn for the prestigious Honickman First Book
Prize. In his introduction he writes: Likenesses is made up of five sequences
of poems, many of which use the engine of simile to drive them forward. Running alongside this simile-generating machine, there is something also here of
Genesist he book is, in part, an origin myth, an attempt to create the world by
naming it.
Likenesses
When he is dead, a man in a
bathing suit looks most like a little boy.
A woman in a bathing suit
looks like a woman, unless she is quite
thin, in which case she looks like a little boy.
A little girl in a sundress looks like a little boy
in a sundress. Her mouth is a cold oval, as cold
as a strawberry. When dead, a robin red-breast
looks like a little girl, while it goes without
saying that Robin Hood looks like a boy . . .
Heather Tones poetry has appeared in the Boston Review, the Colorado Review,
Fence, and other journals. A graduate of the Iowa Writers Workshop, she currently lives in Florida.

The Poem She Didnt Write is a breakup book, full of the kinds of invective and
taunts honed by a person who has spent, as all of us have now spent, infinite hours
online. Its complex tones arise from the poets wanting equally to seduce and
to repel a lover whose deepening silence only provokes rhetorical escalation.

The Panther
From endless passing of the bars his gaze
has weariedthere is no more it can hold.
There seem to be a thousand bars always,
and past those thousand bars there is no world.
The soft pad of his brawny, rippling pace
turns itself in a tightening circle till,
like a mighty dance around a tiny space,
it centers a numb but still enormous will.
But at times the shades of his pupils rise,
grasping an image he cannot resist;
through his tense, unmoving limbs it flies,
and within his heart it ceases to exist.
Rainer Maria Rilke (18751926) is one of the worlds most beloved poets.

The Critical Press is a publisher of short books on film and culture. In exploring the many avenues and
outlets available to film writers in the twenty-first centuryonline publications, print periodicals, and
even the traditional bookwe found there to be a crucial gap: shorter pieces too long for a magazine or
journal article, but still more concise than the traditional monograph. The current film critical community
is rich with original, perceptive, and ambitious writers; why should there not be more places to publish and
encourage books of this length?
We are committed to publishing and selling well-written, high-quality critical arguments about new and
classic films, especially those of a length that may otherwise have been overlooked. Since starting two years

What if the day you remembered as one of the most magical of your childhood
became every day of your life?
In Happy Place, Scott Renshaw explores the phenomenon of Disney theme
park super-fans, and the unique connections they build with places known to
most people only as occasional vacation destinations. Along the way, Renshaw
meets a pass-holder who has visited Disneyland for one thousand consecutive
days, another who has taken more than three thousand rides on his single favorite attraction, and even some who have managed to turn visiting Disney parks
into their job. Happy Place is also a personal journey to find out what happens
when an infatuation with the parks turns into a relationship. Is that relationship
always full of joy, orwhen nostalgia collides with the realities of a corporation
running a businesscan it sometimes turn into frustration and disappointment?
Happy Place isnt just the story of a place. Its a love story, about the kind of
love that emerges when the happiest place on earth becomes more than just a
slogan.
Scott Renshaw has been Arts & Entertainment Editor and film critic for the
Salt Lake City Weekly newspaper since 2002, with film reviews appearing in
alternative newsweeklies in ten states. Over a twenty-year career as a professional writer and critic, he has received awards from the Society of Professional

Notes on American Nonfiction Cinema, 19982013
Robert Greene
A filmmakers exploration of the digital revolution

in documentary film in the twenty-first century.
In the past fifteen years, nonfiction cinema has experienced something of a re

naissance in America. A slew of formally ambitious films have emerged, spanning
from 1998, when future Hollywood director Bennett Millers low-fi The Cruise
proved that digital video could be theatrical with a narrative hook and a compelling subject and star, to 2013, when two Harvard-connected masterpieces,
Leviathan and The Act of Killing, received massive critical success, the crashing
of a long-building tidal wave. Examining these films and many others that came
between them, Present Tense is a year-to-year, personal journey through this era
from filmmaker Robert Greene. Featuring essays and interviews with those on
the front lines, Present Tense is an exploration of how documentary filmmakers, enabled by cheap technology and driven to create films at all costs, boldly embraced
the most exciting narrative and formal techniques of the past to create a true, un
deniable movement.

Work Celebrating the Writing of Gwendolyn Brooks
Edited by Quraysh Ali Lansana

and Sandra Jackson-Opoku
Original poetry, visual art, and essays
commemorating the one-hundredth birthday of
Chicago poet and cultural philanthropist Gwendolyn Brooks.
In the hands of Gwendolyn Brooks, old age is a diamond with many facets.
Throughout her poetry Brooks has illuminated old age as a time of isolation and
withdrawal, remembrance and continuity, poverty, vulnerability, even homelessness, exploitation, neglect, abandonment, marginalization, and destruction. And,
yet, she offered resistance and affirmation.A ngela Jackson, award-w inning
playwright and poet
The year 2017 marks the one-hundredth birthday of the late poet and cultural
icon Gwendolyn Brooks. Brookss depictions of poor and working-class African

Late Stories
Stephen Dixon
Master stylist Stephen Dixon returns with a collection exploring

the elision of memory and reality in the wake of loss.
Mr. Dixon wields a stubbornly plain-spoken style; he loves all sorts of tricky
narrative effects. And he loves even more the tribulations of the fantasizing mind,
ticklish in their comedy, alarming in their immediacy.The New York Times

The interlinked tales of Late Stories detail the excursions of an aging narrator
navigating the amorphous landscape of grief in a series of tender and often waggishly elliptical digressions.
The writer Philip Seidel is in mourning. Although it has been four years since the
death of his longtime wife, Abigail, hes only steadily become more isolated, reclusive, and antisocial. And so he continues to do what he knowshe writes: memories of their shared life, its joyscultural, filial, and sensual; its disappointments
and sorrows; and of the long, slow decline of her health. Along the way, he fantasizes, dryly recounts his daily routines, amends, backtracks, gets confused, repeats
himselfultimately producing a fractured amalgamation of snapshots and quiet
moments that coalesce into a wholly human and heartfelt portrait of bereavement.
Stephen Dixon was born in 1936 in New York City. He is the author of more than
thirty books, including Frog and Interstate, which were nominated for the National
Book Award. He is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, the American
Academy Institute of Arts and Letters Prize for Fiction, the O. Henry Award, and

Essay by Allen Ellenzweig
Seasons Greetings includes handmade art objects and

As Director of Exhibitions and Publications at the Museum of Modern Art from

and the development of the museum exhibition catalogue. During his tenure at
MoMA, Wheeler developed close relationships with many of the artists he exhibited and published. Seasons Greetings is a volume of over fifty handmade art objects and limited printings that were sent to Wheeler from artists, many of whom
he knew intimately, including never-before-seen work by such luminaries as
Jean Cocteau, Ben Shahn, Miguel Covarrubias, Rufino Tamayo, Robert Parker,
Roberto Montenegro, Herbert Bayer, and Max Weber.
Essays by Joseph Scott IV and Allen Ellenzweig establish the importance of
this vast archive of art, letters, and ephemera, and highlight Wheelers wide influence within his field. Seasons Greetings is a fitting tribute to a man whose lifes
work centered on and celebrated fine art publications.
Vincent Cianni is a documentary photographer whose work explores community and memory through image, text, and audio. He teaches at Parsons, The New
School for Design in New York City, and has authored two books, including
Gays in the Military, published by Daylight Books in 2014.
Joseph Scott IV became caretaker of the Manhattan apartment of Monroe

The Lumen Seed

Records of a Search in the Australian Desert
Judith Crispin
Foreword by Juno Gemes
The Lumen Seed sensitively depicts a cultural dialogue taking place before a backdrop of offenses against the Australian continent, as well as a history of systematic discrimination against indigenous peoples on the part of the countrys white
population. The images, created by Australia-based artist Judith Crispin in close
consultation with indigenous people, document an attempt by the Warlpiri group
to share sacred information with white people; the poems convey the artists interpretation of those ideas, alongside her development of personal relationships
with community elders.
Judith Crispin returned to Australia in 2011 after living and working in Germany
for several years. Since that time she has driven the eight-thousand-kilometer
round trip from her home in Canberra to the remote community of Lajamanu
many times and established a close relationship with the Warlpiri community
there. Crispin has a background in music composition, poetry, and photography.

A Crack in the World explores empathy

for all sentient beings and the planet
in the face of global warming.
A Crack In The World presents Barbara Kynes photographs of the five acres that
she and her partner share in Mariposa, California. Kyne photographs as a means
of looking for clues to so-c alled reality, wondering what is outside of the environment that she can detect with her own limited human biology. Ultimately,
she produces a photography of nature that does not rely on the nature genre
or even on the subject matter of nature for engagement or visual enjoyment,
and instead examines the possibilities in the unsensed and imagined. A Crack in
the World contains fresh and elegant, yet layered and technically complex, photographs made with the intention of inspiring empathy for all beings and the
planet that sustains us. Essays by Susan Griffin examine the artistic and theoretical implications of this deceptively simple body of work.
Barbara Kyne is an artist based in Oakland, California. Her work has been shown
at SF Camerawork, Photo Center NW, the Trition Museum of Art, the Kala
Institute, and the Bedford Gallery, and is featured in many contemporary photography books and publications.

Evangeline is a photographic exploration of Nova Scotia, Canada, directly inspired

of the Acadians. Today, the proud presence of Acadian heritage on the shores

churches, Acadian flags, and unique architecture. But the regions population is
dwindling, and the culture that struggled against the New World British influence is again losing ground. Marchesi eloquently portrays this gradual exodus of
the Acadian people from rural Nova Scotia in haunting landscapes of empty seaports and abandoned Victorian properties.
This is the forest primeval; but where are the hearts that beneath it

Eve Out of Her Ruins
Ananda Devi
Translated by Jeffrey Zuckerman
A harrowing account of the hidden violent reality of life in her native

country by the figurehead of Mauritian literature.
Devi writes about terrible and bitter events with a soft, delicate voice.Le Figaro
With brutal honesty and poetic urgency, Ananda Devi relates the tale of four young
Mauritians trapped in their countrys endless cycle of fear and violence: Eve, whose
body is her only weapon and source of power; Savita, Eves best friend, the only one
who loves Eve without self-interest, who has plans to leave but will not go alone;
Saadiq, gifted would-be poet, inspired by Rimbaud, in love with Eve; Cllio, belligerent rebel, waiting without hope for his brother to send for him from France.
Eve Out of Her Ruins is a heartbreaking look at the dark corners of the island
nation of Mauritius that tourists never see, and a poignant exploration of the construction of personhood at the margins of society. Awarded the prestigious Prix
des cinq continents upon publication as the best book written in French outside of
France, Eve Out of her Ruins is a harrowing account of the violent reality of life in
her native country by the figurehead of Mauritian literature.
The book featurues an original introduction by Nobel Prize winner J.M.G.
Le Clzio, who declares Devi a truly great writer.
Ananda Devi (b. 1957, Trois-Boutiques, Mauritius) is a novelist and scholar. She
has published eight novels as well as short stories and poetry, and was featured at
the PEN World Voices Festival in New York in 2015. She was made a Chevalier des

The Usage of Behavior Medication by Kids in the USA
Baptiste Lignel
A revealing and at times disturbing insight

into a complex subject that affects many lives.
One in five Americans under eighteen years old is diagnosed as having a mental condition that translates into behavioral problems. Often, this is treated with
medication, which can start from an extremely young age.
Over a six-year period, Baptiste Lignel followed the progress of nine American
teenagers with an array of pathologies which lead to behavioral problems, such
as ADHD and OCD as well as depression and anxiety. In candid interviews, the
teenagers talk about their diagnoses and the impact that their medical treatment
has had on their lives. Lignel also explores the social background and, in particular, the imagery that is fed back through social media and popular culture.
When working on a controversial subject, my goal is to remain as neutral
as possible. My hope is to bring to light many aspects surrounding the topic
sometimes contradictory onesin order for the readers to make up their own
minds. Lignel gives a balanced account of what is inevitably a complex and controversial subject.

Adolfo Kaminsky: A Forgers Life
Sarah Kaminsky
Translated by Mike Mitchell
Photographs by Adolfo Kaminsky
The gripping true story of a life-long forger as told to his daughter.
Written like the best spy novels.T ED.com

Best-selling author Sarah Kaminsky takes readers through her father Adolfo
Kaminskys perilous and clandestine career as a real-life forger for the French
Resistance, the FLN, and numerous other freedom movements of the twentieth century. Recruited as a young Jewish teenager for his knowledge of dyes,
Kaminsky became the primary forger for the French Resistance during the Nazi
occupation of Paris. Then, as a professional photographer, Kaminsky spent the
next twenty-fi ve years clandestinely producing thousands of counterfeit docu
ments for immigrants, exiles, underground political operatives, and pacifists across the globe. Kaminsky kept his past cloaked in secrecy well into
his eighties, until his daughter convinced him to share the details of the life-
threatening work he did on behalf of people fighting for justice and peace
throughout the world.

It took me two years of research and some twenty interviews before I got to know
Adolfo Kaminsky, who I only knew as Papa: decoding his silences, detecting between
the notes of his monotone delivery things he didnt put into words, understanding
the parables and finding the messages hidden beneath the series of anecdotes that
filled my notebook. And sometimes I needed to see the way other people looked at
him to understand his choices, his life as a forger, his work underground, his politi
cal commitments, his inability to understand society and the hatred motivating vari
ous groups that encumbered it, his desire to build a world of justice and freedom.

Insightful essays and rarely-seen images tracing, from birth to maturation, several
generations of Hungarian modernism, from the avant-garde to neo-avant-garde.

Americas Civil War
The Blue and the Gray in History, Myth, and Memory
Albert A. Nofi
The Civil War in hundreds of detailed anecdotes

by a veteran historian.
Americas greatest conflict was long in coming. Its roots lay deeply embedded in
the nations past. Despite rhetoric, then and since, the fundamental issue was always slavery. On April 15, 1861, Lincoln called for seventy-five thousand militiamen. This prompted most of the slave-holding states still tentatively loyal to
the Union to secede: Virginia on April 17, shortly followed by Arkansas, North
Carolina, and Tennessee. Maryland, Kentucky, and Missouri were barely held
for the Union. Men sprang to arms to take part in the great adventuremost believed the war would be short. The aged Winfield Scott, hero of both the War of
1812 and the Mexican-American War, now an honorary lieutenant general and
General-in-Chief of the Army, suggested in vain that it would be long and hard.
This history looks at the war through the lens of a commonplace book: a collection of useful, interesting, and entertaining informationfactoids, essays,
poems, anecdotes, lists, profiles, and other miscellany. This helps to throw light
on various aspects of the war from its origins up to the present, looking at how
we remember and memorialize those people and events.
These pieces of information would normally be scattered over the in
numerable books, newspapers, and magazine articles that make up our knowledge of the Civil War. This compilation is a selection of items of interest, covering
the entire war; it includes more detail and facts than any similar one-volume publication on the subject.

In spite of the deadly law of omert among the men of honor of the Mafia, promising swift and fatal retribution to its transgressors, Frank Ragano tells an un
rivaled and unmatched insiders story. Never before has someone so highly placed
revealed what went on behind the closed doors of organized crime during its most
powerful, lucrative, and pervasive years.
This is the unvarnished story of the murders, the fixed juries, the sweetheart
deals, and the political corruption that characterized the heyday of the Mafia.
Here in unprecedented detail are the day-to-d ay workings of Americas most
profitable and influential criminal organizations; huge operations whose tremendous growth from the 1950s to the 1970s was due in part to brilliant,
aggressive, highly paid attorneys who kept the wheels of these drug and prostitution factories well-greased.
Ragano acted as a conduit between the mob and politicians, crooked business
men, and powerful labor leaders. He provides an enthralling hour-by-hour account of the day Jimmy Hoffa was killed, including who ordered the hit and
why. He shows how Hoffas animus toward Attorney General Robert Kennedy
erupted in a brawl between the two men in the offices of the Justice Department,
and most shockingly, how Ragano unwittingly delivered the messagefrom
Hoffa to the mobt hat resulted in President Kennedys assassination. At the
very heart of the American Mafia, Ragano was the attorney for Santo Trafficante,
Jimmy Hoffa, and Carlos Marcello.
With a foreword by award-w inning screenwriter and author Nicholas Pileggi.

Diary 19371943
Galeazzo Ciano
Introduction by Sumner Welles
The members of what was politely termed the Italian Government were no more
than Mussolinis lackeys. Count Ciano himself was wholly subservient to him.
Count Ciano was a man who lacked neither personal dignity nor physical courage, and yet I have seen him quail at an interview with Mussolini when the dictator showed irritation. I first knew of the existence of this Diary . . . from Count
Ciano himself. He showed it to me and read me excerpts from it in my first conversation with him. There is no question of its authenticity. . . . I believe it to be one
of the most valuable historical documents of our times.Sumner Welles, from
the introduction
Galeazzo Ciano was Benito Mussolinis confidant and advisor, and met with the
foreign leaders with whom Mussolini had dealings. This is World War II seen
from the inside: the only book of its kind that provides the key to many little-
known episodes and operations that influenced the course of the war. This diary
was eventually the cause of Cianos death by firing squad, which the Nazis ordered to be carried out.

French Intelligence and Counterintelligence 19351945
Colonel Paul Paillole

Few careers can match that of Colonel Paul Paillole of the French intelligence
service. He joined the Service de Renseignement in Paris as a young officer in 1935
and served in counterintelligence until November 1944. On June 6, 1944, he
was the only French officer privy to top secret details: the day and hour of the
Normandy invasion. This book is filled with fascinating operational detail, with
descriptions of hundreds of espionage and counterespionage cases, among them
the real origins of the plot to kill Admiral Darlan in 1942; the use of submarines
to help the resistance; and the compilation of lists of SS, Gestapo, and French col
laborators slated for arrest and execution after D-Day.

One Turn Around the Sun
Tim Seibles
This panorama of poems defines the twilight when a

caretaker of parents realizes that life is too short.
One Turn Around the Sun is a panorama of poems that attempts to define the first
appearances of lifes twilight. The book also studies the intricacies of being a self:
a particular personality shaped by forces seen and unseen, both knowable and
not. At times, the various voices might be considered characters that agree and
sustain one perspective. In other cases, contending sensibilities imply an underlying argument. This is especially true of the book within the book, which is entitled The Hilt. Several questions drive this collection, the most central being:
How can a person stay sane when, so often, sociopolitical circumstances mock all
efforts to create a livable world? This titles intention is to bolster an ongoing engagement with life at a time when running away is a great temptation.
Tim Seibless book of poems, Fast Animal (Etruscan Press, 2011) was a finalist for the 2012 National Book Award, received the triennial Theodore Roethke
Memorial Poetry Prize and the PEN Oakland Josephine Miles Award. Seibles
has received fellowships from both the Provincetown Fine Arts Center and The
National Endowment for the Arts. He also won the Open Voice Award from the
63rd Street Y in New York City. His work appears in numerous literary journals
including Indiana Review, Black Renaissance Noire, Huizache, Cortland Review,

Black Wave
Michelle Tea
Its 1999and Michelles world is ending.

A dreamlike and dystopian meditation on sobriety,
adulthood, and the obligations of storytelling.
I was unable to put down Black Wave, suddenly afraid and unsure of what was
out there beyond my reading. This bad-fairytale-come-t rue is destabilizing and
palpable, and its Michelle Teas most fearless book. Its a radically honest and
wonderful place that shes spun. It shook me up.Eileen Myles
A keen portrait of a subculture, an instant classic in life-writing, a go-forbroke exemplar of queer feminist imagination, and a contribution to crucial
conversations about whose lives matter. Black Wave is a rollicking triumph.
Maggie Nelson
Desperate to quell her addiction to drugs, disastrous romance, and nineties
San Francisco, Michelle heads south for LA. But when its announced that
the world will officially end soon, life in the metropolis becomes increasingly
weird.
While living in an abandoned bookstore, dating Matt Dillon, and keeping
an eye on the encroaching apocalypse, Michelle begins a new novel, a sprawling and meta-textual exploration, to complement her promises of maturity and
responsibility. But as she tries to make queer love and art without succumbing
to self-destructive vices, the boundaries between storytelling and everyday living begin to blur, and Michelle wonders how shell make sense of it all before
doomsday.
Michelle Tea is the author of numerous books, including Rent Girl, Valencia,
and How to Grow Up. She is the co-creator of Sister Spit and founder of RADAR
Productions, a literary nonprofit that oversees queer-centric projects.

conversations they actually wantedrelevant, real conversations about how
race and gender politics intersect with pop culture and current events. To address this void, they started a blog. Now with an annual readership of nearly
one million, their posts foster dialogue about activist methods, intersection
ality, and sisterhood. And the writers personal identitiesa s black women; as
sisters, daughters, and lovers; and as television watchers, sports fans, and music
loversa re never far from the discussion at hand.
These essays explore Sex and Power in the Black Church, discuss how
Clair Huxtable Is Dead, list Five Ways Talib Kweli Can Become a Better
Ally to Women in Hip Hop, and dwell on Dating with a Doctorate. Self-
described as critical homegirls, the authors tackle life stuck between loving
hip hop and ratchet culture while hating patriarchy, misogyny, and sexism.

Avies Dreams
An Afro-Feminist Coloring Book
Makeda Lewis
Part activity book, part surrealist poem, Avies Dreams
takes an interactive and wildly introspective approach
to Afro-feminist self-discovery and girlhood.
Disillusioned by the fallacies of convention, a young dreamer picks herself back

up and wanders through a personal mythology of women warriors, tropical flowers, and sea creatures. A radical and interpersonal take on the usual coming-of-
age tale, Avie firmly establishes her authorial rolea nd infuses ancient Greek
lore, Renaissance paintings, and Hollywood blockbusters with images of Afro
centricity and queer identity.
Despite the continued popularity of adult coloring books, few actually incorporate adult literary themes into their pages. Not only is Avies Dreams beautifully illustrated, it also tells a complex and challenging narrative of race, gender
and sexuality, and body image. Interspersed with lyrics and quotes taken from
contemporary Internet culture and modern poetry, the story investigates the
trials and magic of a young black girl growing up in the world.
Makeda Lewis is an artist living in Atlanta, Georgia. Her art has been positively reviewed by BET, Colorlines, Blavity, MadameNoire, The Reel Network, and
HerStyle Media. This is her first book.

Hanna Krall
Translated by Philip Boehm
Afterword by Mariusz Szczygiel
This canonical work of Polish reportage is a terse, unexpected human lesson
born of an occupation-era love story. Based on a true story, the raw interplay of
history and fictionalization spans the Warsaw Ghetto, the war-torn countryside,
and the nightmare of Auschwitz.
This is the books first US publication.
Hanna Krall was born in 1935 in Poland and survived the Holocaust by hiding in a cupboard. She has received numerous Polish and international awards,
such as the Polish PEN Club Prize and the German Wrth-Preis for European
Literature, and has been translated into seventeen languages.

Queer Methods
Edited by Matt Brim and Amin Ghaziani
Rather than focusing on what makes up queer identity, this issue of the award-
winning journal WSQ asks whether the academys preexisting scholarly methods
will be enough to take on this exciting new field of study. As an inherently slippery discipline, the resistance, impreciseness, and provocation that distinguish
queer studies will undoubtedly affect its methodological development.

Strength Through Design
Third Reich Propaganda in Print
Nigel Wingrove
A unique look at the Third Reich through its enormous output

of books, magazines, brochures, newspapers, and poster material.
We all know of the horrifying success of Nazi propaganda and its promotion of
totalitarian and anti-Semitic ideas. In Strength Through Design, collector and author Nigel Wingrove breaks down how it all happened with reproductions of Nazi
books, magazines, brochures, newspapers, and posters. Strength Through Design
collects and contextualizes a time when graphic design joined forces with the
worst kind of state apparatus.
Nigel Wingrove is known for co-w riting, with Marc Morris, The Art of the
Nasty, a book that focused on the packaging of horror films and how video nasty
hysteria gripped the British media in the early 1980s. When archaic blasphemy
laws moved against artistic expression, Wingrove joined writers Salman Rushdie
and Fay Weldon and film directors Derek Jarman and Michael Winner in suits
heard at the European Court of Human Rights.

Introduction by Steven Blush

for him at a very early age. Heres his controversial story.

Harley Flanagan provides a fascinating memoira homeless child prodigy and

family friend of Andy Warhol and Allen Ginsberg. At a young age he became close
to many stars of the early punk rock scene like Joe Strummer of the Clash and
was taught to play bass by members of the famed black punk band Bad Brains. He
went on to start the notorious hardcore band Cro-M ags.
From the memoirs introduction by American Hardcores Steven Blush: Harley
Flanagan is not like you or me. Most of us grew up in relative safety and security. Harley came up like a feral animal, left by his hippie mother to fend for
himself in the 70s Lower East Side jungle of crime, drugs, abuse, and poverty.
By age the age of ten he played frequently at Maxs Kansas City and CBGB,
drumming in his aunts punk band The Stimulators, and socializing with
Blondies Debbie Harry and Clevelands Dead Boys. Everyone thought it was
so cute, but it wasnt.
Currently a Jiu Jitsu instructor for the famed Renzo Gracie, Flanagan was never
shy: making friends with important figures like Lemmy Kilmister of Motrhead,
defending himself in street battles, and, most recently, finding media play and
court battles after former band members betrayed their one-time friend and
bandmate.

The Mohammed Code
How a Desert Prophet Brought You ISIS,
al Qaeda, and Boko Haram
Howard Bloom
The Mohammed Code tells the story of how Mohammed
invented jihad and demanded that it conquer the earth.
If Howard Bloom is only ten percent right, well have to drastically revise our
notions of the universe through the contagious joy of a great mind set loose on
the biggest intellectual puzzles humans have ever faced. Whether youre a scientist or hyper-c urious layperson, Blooms argument will rock your world.
Barbara Ehrenreich on Howard Blooms The God Problem
Osama bin Laden called Mohammed a Prophet of Conquest. Pakistans Universal
Sunnah Foundation brags that under Mohammeds battlefield leadership, Islam
spread an average of 317 square miles per day.
ISIS, al Qaeda, Boko Haram, and the Supreme Leader of Iran know that
Islam toppled two of the biggest superpowers in historyR ome and Persia
then took over two-thirds of the inhabited world. Militant Muslims believe
that Islam is on the brink of doing it again. The Mohammed Code: How a Desert
Prophet Brought You ISIS, al Qaeda, and Boko Haram lays bare the origins of this
profoundly dangerous belief.
Many contemporary thinkers excuse Islamic violence as a legitimate reaction to Western imperialism. They blame Americas wars in Iraq and Afghanistan
and the establishment of Israel in 1948. But Jihad was invented in 624 AD by the
only prophet ever to call himself The Prophet of War. And that prophet was
not responding to legitimate grievances, but an ambition for world conquest.

With the appearance of the demonic Christmas character Krampus in contemporary Hollywood movies, television shows, advertisements, and greeting cards,
medieval folklore has now been revisited in American culture. Krampus-related
events and parades occur both in North America and Europe, and they are an
ever-g rowing phenomenon.
Though the Krampus figure has once again become iconic, not much can be
found about its history and meaning, thus calling for a book like Al Ridenours
The Krampus and the Old, Dark Christmas. With Krampuss wild, graphic history, Feral House has enlisted the awarded designer Sean Tejaratchi to take on
Ridenours book about this ever-so-c urious figure.
Al Ridenour has lectured on Krampus at the Goethe Institutes in Los Angeles
and San Francisco. He became somewhat of an internet phenomenon himself
due to the hilarious hijinks he coordinated with the controversial Cacophony
Societies.

Knowledge Matters
Ben van Berkel and Caroline Bos
The profession architect has expanded in recent years, not just in terms of
cultural influences, but equally with respect to scientific advances. The inventive economy has also led to new lifestyle choices and a new role for the architect
and architectural practice. We talk of an architecture that is either pre-c risis or
post-c risis, the latter resulting in a call for responsible architecture (affordable,
sustainable, attainable, and healthy).
This development led to changes in the UNStudio practice with the introduction of Knowledge Platforms and the development from a network to a
knowledge practice. Now compiled into an inspiring publication, Knowledge
Matters will help architects to run a better studio and to share knowledge.

French Rhapsody
Antoine Laurain
Translated by Jane Aitken and Emily Boyce
Antoine Laurains new novel combines his trademark charm
with a satirical take on modern France.
Praise for The Red Notebook:

An endearing love story written in beautifully poetic prose. It is an enthralling
mystery about chasing the unknown, the nostalgia for what could have been, and
most importantly, the persistence of curiosity.San Francisco Book Review
Praise for The Presidents Hat:
Its gentle satirical humor reminded me of Jacques Tatis classic films.
Library Journal
Irresistibly whimsical, possessed of wit somewhere between that of Alan Bennetts
in The Uncommon Reader and Muriel Barberys in The Elegance of the Hedgehog, and
thoroughly entertaining.The Kings English Bookshop, Salt Lake City
Middle-a ged doctor Alain Massoulier has received a life-c hanging letter
thirty-t hree years too late. Lost in the Paris postal system for decades, the letter from Polydor, dated 1983, offers a recording contract to The Holograms, in
which Alain played lead guitar. Back then The Holograms had believed in their
cutting-edge sound. However, the music industry remained indifferent, and
eventually the band split up, each going their own way.
Alain is overcome by nostalgia, and is tempted to track down the members of
the group. But in a world where everything and everyone has changed . . . where
will his quest take him?
Antoine Laurain is a Parisian screenwriter, antiques collector, and the author of
six novels, three of which are available in English. The Presidents Hat was a 2013
ABA Indies Introduce choice.

Pierre Gouthire
Virtuoso Gilder at the French Court
Christian Baulez and Charlotte Vignon

Contributions by Anne Forray-Carlier, Joseph Godla,
Helen Jacobsen, Luisa Penalva, and Emmanuel Sarmo
A major new volume on the life of Pierre Gouthire (17321813),
the celebrated Parisian gilder to the French kings.
Pierre Gouthire: Virtuoso Gilder at the French Court celebrates the life of Pierre
Gouthire (17321813), considered to be one of the best Parisian bronze chasers
and gilders of the eighteenth century. Gouthire became gilder to Louis XV in
1767, and is credited with inventing a new type of gilding that left a matte finish
dorure au matone of the hallmarks of his work. Although incredibly successful
in his day, Gouthire died in relative obscurity and poverty; unlike some of his
contemporaries, his works never regained popularity after the French Revolution.
The inclusion of detailed entries and plates of forty works positively attributed
to Gouthire, five essays by leading experts which examine Gouthires life, career, clientele, and gilding techniques, as well as examples of his work from US,
Russian, and British collections, ensure that this beautiful volume is an invaluable
new resource on Gouthire. The only other volume on this master was published
in 1920, and is now long out of print.

There is something intrinsically fresh, immediate, and approachable about

Vincent Van Goghs sous-bois paintings, which are some of his most famous and
finest works, and which beautifully capture the subtle and transient effects of light
on foliage. Van Gogh: Into the Undergrowth examines the way in which Van Gogh
was part of the wider sous-bois tradition in nineteenth-century French painting,
and explores how he used painting as a metaphor for the dynamism, vitality, and
ever-changing face of nature.
In addition to color plates of twenty-five artworks by Van Gogh and other leading landscape painters such as Charles-Franois Daubigny, Claude Monet, and
Paul Gauguin, this volume presents extensive new research on Van Gogh, nature, and sous-bois. There is a lead essay on Van Gogh and nature by independent
scholar Cornelia Homburg, Jenny Reynaerts looks at the sous-bois genre in the
nineteenth century, and Simon Kelly examines Van Goghs relationship with the
Barbizon and Impressionist schools. Laura Prins writes specifically on Cincinnati
Art Museums own late Van Gogh painting, Undergrowth with Two Figures, which
has recently been restored.

Essays by Mohsen Ashtiany, Marcus Fraser, Catherine Glynn,

A captivating and vibrant reflection of the art history of one of the

greatest empires of the early modern period.
The mighty Persian warrior Rustam; the Israelite prophets Joseph, Moses, and
Elijah; the Christian Messiah; the Mughal emperors Babur, Humayun, and
Akbar; and the women of the harem; Mughal paintings tell the stories of these
figures from epic poetry, holy texts, and the real-l ife history of the Mughals, one
of the greatest empires of the early modern period. Captured in this unique art
form, Mughal paintings blend Persian and Indian themes and styles, along with
Central Asian and European elements. The results are works of great beauty: intense, delicate, detailed, luxurious, and unique.
This, the third volume in a series dedicated to the Cleveland Museums light-

This is the first-ever scholarly publication devoted to the art of Francesco de Mura
(16961782), one of the greatest painters of the golden age of Naples.
De Muras refined and elegant compositions, with their exquisite light and coloring, heralded the rococo, and his later style was a precursor of neo-classicism.
His ceiling frescoes at Monte Cassino, destoyed in World War II, rivalled those
of his celebrated Venetian contemporary, Giambattista Tiepolo (16961770). Yet
today, he lacks his proper place in the history of art. This volume demonstrates
why it is now time to reevaluate this once-celebrated artist.
A long-overdue celebration of one of

the greatest painters of the golden age
of Naples baroque.

Clevelands Gothic Table Fountain
Stephen N. Fliegel and Elina Gertsman

The Cleveland Museum of Arts medieval table fountain, c. 132040, is the only
version of its kind to have survived in its complete form from the Middle Ages.
A superb example of French Gothic goldsmithing, it is an exquisite metalwork
structure and a unique example of courtly taste and princely fashion, which was
designed not for any religious purpose but purely as an indulgence. Its uncertain
provenance has added to its charm. This focus volume reassesses this extraordinary piece in the context of other similar luxury objects, analyzing specifically the
fountains history, functionality, materials, and style.

In Search for a Bird on the Edge of Extinction
Horatio Clare

the Mediterranean basin, passing through the wetlands and estuaries of Italy,
Greece, the Balkans, and Central Asia. Today, the slender-billed curlew only
exists as a rumour, a ghost species surrounded by unconfirmed sightings and
speculation. The only certainty is that it now stands on the edge of extinction.

Its the week after Easter, April 1320, 2009.

Late in the week, a man wakes up in Guanajuato, Mexico, with his knowledge
intact, but with no sense of who he is or how he came to Guanajuato. His only
clues are a drivers license and ATM card, both of which are in the name of Alvaro
de Campos, one of the heteronyms of Fernando Pessoa.
Earlier in the week, a man sits at his desk in an office tower in Santa Monica,
California, attempting to complete his memoirs after twenty-fi ve years in the
venture business. Unfortunately, one of his current deals may be a money-
laundering scam, and its lead investor has been calling him in the night, not only
demanding his money back, but citing the relevant passages from Shakespeares
The Tempest.
And in the middle of the week, just before dawn on April 15, two gunmen
arrive at an El Paso motel to retrieve a duffel bag stuffed full of currency, and
eliminate the man who brought it to El Paso.
Thus begins the three-stranded narrative of Novel Explosives, a search for
identity that travels through the worlds of venture finance, the Jurez drug wars,
and enhanced-lethality thermobaric weaponry.
Jim Gauer is a mathematician, widely published poet, and possibly the worlds
only Marxist venture capitalist.

In late 2014, Arundhati Roy, John Cusack, and Daniel Ellsberg travelled to

The result was a series of essays and dialogues in which Roy and Cusack reflect on their conversations with Snowden.
In these provocative and penetrating discussions, Roy and Cusack discuss the
nature of the state, empire, and surveillance in an era of perpetual war, the meaning of flags and patriotism, the role of foundations and NGOs in limiting dissent,
and the ways in which capital but not people can freely cross borders.
Arundhati Roy studies architecture in New Delhi, India, where she now lives.
She is the author of the novel The God of Small Things, for which she received the
1997 Booker Prize. The novel has been translated into forty languages worldwide.
She has written several nonfiction books, including Field Notes on Democracy:

A Radical Manifesto
Bill Ayers
Demand the Impossible! is a manifesto for movement-makers

and an invitation to join hands and make history together.
Praise for Fugitive Days:

[A] gripping and provocative story. . . . What is most remarkable about this
dramatic and revelatory personal and social history are the always urgent questions it raises about compassion and freedom, responsibility and community,
and the conundrum of how to bring about much-needed change.B ooklist,
starred review
A memoir that is, in effect, a deeply moving elegy to all those young dreamers
who tried to live decently in an indecent world. Ayers provides a tribute to those
better angels of ourselves.Studs Terkel, author of Working and The Good War
In an era defined by mass incarceration, endless war, economic crisis, catastrophic environmental destruction, and a political system offering more of the
same, radical social transformation has never been more urgentor seemed
more remote.
Demand the Impossible urges us to imagine a world beyond what this rotten
system would have us believe is possible.
In critiquing the world around us, insurgent educator and activist Bill Ayers
uncovers cracks in the system, raises the horizons for radical change, and envisions strategies for building the movement we need to make a world worth living in.
Bill Ayers is a social justice activist, teacher, Distinguished Professor of Education
(retired) at the University of Illinois at Chicago, and author of two memoirs,
Fugitive Days and Public Enemy.

The Violent American Century
War and Terror Since World War II
John Dower
A Pulitzer Prizewinning author addresses the US-led transformations

in war conduct and strategizing that followed 1945.
World War II marked the apogee of industrialized total war. Great powers savaged one and other. Hostilities engulfed the globe. The mobilization extended to
virtually every sector of every nation. Air war, including the terror bombing of
civilians, emerged as a central strategy of the victorious Anglo-American powers. The devastation was catastrophic almost everywhere, with the notable exception of the United States, which exited the strife unscathed and unmatched
in power and influence.
The death toll of the fighting forces plus civilians worldwide was staggering. The Violent American Century addresses the Unites Statesled transformations in war conduct and strategizing that followed 1945beginning with
brutal localized hostilities, proxy wars, and the nuclear terror of the Cold War,
and ending with the asymmetrical conflicts of the present day. Today, the military playbook meshes brute force with a focus on non-state terrorism, counterinsurgency, clandestine operations, a vast web of overseas American military
bases, andmost touted of alla revolutionary new era of computerized precision warfare. In contrast to World War II, postwar death and destruction has
been comparatively small. By any other measure, it has been appallingand
shows no sign of abating.
The winner of numerous national prizes for his historical writings, including
the Pulitzer and the National Book Award for Embracing Defeat: Japan in the Wake
of World War II, Dower draws heavily on hard data and internal US planning and
pronouncements in this concise analysis of war and terror in our time. In doing so,
he places US policy and practice firmly within the broader context of global mayhem, havoc, and slaughter since World War IIalways with bottom-line attentiveness to the human costs of this legacy of unceasing violence.

Struggle or Starve
Working-Class Unity in Belfasts 1932 Outdoor Relief Riots
Sen Mitchell
It is brilliant that Sen Mitchell has brought these great events back to life. It
will be an inspiration to unite again in todays struggles.Ken Loach
In October 1932, the streets of Belfast were gripped by vicious and widespread
rioting that lasted the better part of a week. Thousands of unarmed demonstrators fought pitched battles against heavily a rmed police. Unemployed workers
and whole working-class communities dug trenches and built barricades to hold
off the police assault. The event became known as the Outdoor Relief Riot
one of the few instances in which class sympathy managed to trump sectarian
loyalties in a city famous for its divisions.
Sen Mitchell lives in Dublin, Ireland, and is a founding member of People
Before Profit. He was the first person to stand for election under the partys banner.

it constitutes a mechanism of control exerted over poor and working class parents

seen details and make otherwise hidden elements accessible to the beholder.
This tome comprises an unprecedented compilation on this timeless subject.

the anatomy of human beings and selected mammals. For the student, the volumes remarkably precise depiction of the skeleton and muscles will open the
door to the true-to-life reproduction of the various parts of the body and their
movements, a critical step on the road to artistic mastery. Professor Gyrgy
Fehr provides clear and precise descriptions to accompany every illustration.
Above and beyond these anatomical descriptions, his introductory texts offer a
living image of the depicted life forms.
This effective combination of artistic and scientific depiction makes Anatomy
Drawing School an essential reference work for painters, graphic artists, and anyone interested in anatomy.
Graphic artist and painter Andrs Szunyoghy is a professor at the Institute for
Anatomical Drawing at the Academy of Applied Arts in Budapest. His works

High Conflict People in Legal Disputes
Second Edition
Revised and Updated
Bill Eddy, LCSW, Esq.

This book makes sense of the fears that drive people to file lawsuits and
complaints, wreaking havoc for legal professionals and everyone.
People with high conflict personalities (HCPs) clog our courts as plaintiffs with
inappropriate claims against their targets of blame, and as defendants who
have harmed others and need to be stopped. Everybody knows someone with
a High Conflict Personality. How can he be so unreasonable? Why does she
keep fighting? Cant she see how destructive she is? Can you believe theyre
going to court over ______?
Some HCPs are more difficult than others, but they tend to share a similar
preoccupation with blame that drives them into one dispute after anothera nd
keeps everyone perplexed about how to deal with them.
Using case examples and an analysis of the general litigation and negotiation behaviors of HCPs, this book helps make sense of the exaggerated fears that
drive HCPs to file lawsuits and complaints. It provides insight for containing their
behavior while managing and resolving their disputes. Characteristics of the five
high-conflict personality disorders are explored:
Borderline
Narcissistic
Histrionic
Paranoid
Antisocial
Bill Eddy is a lawyer, therapist, mediator, and president of the High Conflict
Institute. He developed the High Conflict Personality theory and is an international expert on the subject. He is a certified family law specialist and senior
family mediator at the National Conflict Resolution Center. He has taught at the
University of San Diego School of Law, is on the part-time faculty of the Straus
Institute for Dispute Resolution at the Pepperdine University School of Law and
the National Judicial College, and lectures at Monash University in Australia.

Martutene
Ramn Saizarbitoria
Translated by Aritz Branton
Martutene could well be considered the highest summit of Basque-language
novels. . . . This superb novel recalls the greatness of Tolstoy and the obsessive
stylistic accuracy of Flaubert. ngel Basanta, El Cultural
Set in the current Basque Country, Martutene is an ambitious and truly grand
novel with a splendid array of characters: two bourgeois couples worn down
by years of marriage, their group of friends, and the newcomer Lynn, a young
American sociologist. An insightful portrait of the post-ETA Basque country and
an exploration of those thoughts and feelings that expose our miseries and our
deepest fears as human beings.
A major work, considered the fundamental novel of modern Basque literature.

Were in America Now
A Surviviors Stories
Fred Amram
A heros journey, from the dark days of the Holocaust,

to resettlement in the New World and the American Midwest.
Epic in scope, but gentle and charming in delivery, Fred Amrams Were in America
Now is a quiet chronicle of a clamorous era. Politics and war compel Amrams
family to leave the only home they ever knew and embark on a personal exodus,
fleeing a new pharaoh, pursuing a new promised land. They arrive in America to
discover that paradise is not all milk and honey, but love, loyalty, and faith conspire to hold the family together, and the story of how they rebuild the life that
was robbed them is moving, probing, and insightful.J.C. Hallman, author of
B & Me: A True Story of Literary Arousal
These compelling stories form a riveting memoir that begins with the authors
birth during the rise of Hitler in 1930s Germany. He and his surviving family soon
escape to Holland and sail to America where they encounter many challenges as
immigrants in a new world. This country truly becomes a land of opportunity
where one can build a new life and become more than a Holocaust survivor.
Fred Amram is a retired University of Minnesota professor of communication
and creativity. He spent his early years in Hanover, Germany, where he experienced the Holocaust from its inception in 1933. He witnessed Kristallnacht and
the Gestapo invading his home. He watched the British bombers from his balcony when Jews were banned from air raid shelters. The loss of uncles, aunts, a
grandmother, and many more relatives has motivated him to share his experiences in hopes of ending genocide everywhere.

A Bloom of Bones
Allen Morris Jones
A rancher and poet in Montana has his life ruptured when

a long-buried dead body appears on his property.
Eli Singer, a rancher and poet in remote Eastern Montana, sees his life upended
when a long-buried corpsewhich turns out to be a murder victim from Elis
childhooderodes out of a hillside on his property. This discovery forces Eli to
turn inward to revisit the tragic events in his past that led to a life-changing moment of violence, while at the same time he must reach outside himself toward
Chloe, a literary agent from New York with whom he is falling in love. In the
tradition of such classic western writers as Thomas McGuane, James Lee Burke,
Ivan Doig, and Jim Harrison, A Bloom of Bones is a poignant and moving exploration of family, community, and the echoing ramifications of violence across
generations, as well as a genre-subverting literary mystery.
Allen Morris Jones is the author of a novel, Last Years River, which was chosen
as a Barnes and Noble pick; a highly-regarded exploration of the ethics of hunting, A Quiet Place of Violence; and co-editor, with William Kittredge, of The Best of
Montanas Short Fiction. He has published numerous articles, essays, short stories,

New York Legs
Photographs and text by Stacey Baker
Introduction by Kathy Ryan
A book full of ladies legs photographed on the streets of New York

a celebration of the female figure.
For the past three years, Stacey Baker has been photographing womens legs in
New York City and posting the pictures on Instagram, where she has over seventy-
five thousand followers. The women are strangers she meets on the street who
agree to pose in front of a nearby wall. Only their legs are visible in the frame:
She always frames them so the subject is cut off at the waist. She rigorously stages
these photographs, asking the muse to stand in front of a gritty, textured wall, and
composing each image so the heels line up with the horizon line where the wall
meets the chewing-g um-pocked sidewalk, and always framing it so the thin strip
of pavement takes up about a sixth of the picture. By following this disciplined
approach, Baker has figured out a way to commandeer a portrait studio out of
the chaos of midtown Manhattan.
The images, viewed collectively, reflect the diversity of the female figure and
also reflect the personality of each subject as well as the fashion of the moment:
leggings, miniskirts, jeans, and more. Many of the pictures were taken on West
40th Street between 7th and 8th Avenues, near where Baker works as a photo
editor at the New York Times Magazine, often during her lunch hour.

Contributions by Holly Graff and Ariel Shanberg
As criticism of the US education system grows among parents, so does the appeal
of homeschooling. After moving to Woodstock, New York, Rachel Papo began
to photograph a small number of families living in the region who follow this
path. While much of the discussion about the subject revolves around parents
and their beliefs, she chose to focus on the lives and routines of the children,
in an attempt to capture their spirit and the meaning of growing up outside the
conventional four classroom walls. The result is a quiet meditation on the home
education movement from the childrens perspective.

Foreword by Cameron Crowe
Like many apartment buildings in Hollywood, the Villa Bonita was built during the film industrys first heyday during the 1920s and 1930s. Built for the vast
crews and casts that Cecil B. DeMille was hiring during his fertile period, the
Villa Bonita has housed great Hollywood figures from Errol Flynn to Francis
Ford Coppola. In a series of photographs that brings us into intimate proximity
with its subjects, The Villa Bonita surveys the inhabitants of this historic apartment tower in the middle of Hollywood, creating a collective portrait of the transient nature of the city.

Palm SpringsThe Good Life Goes On
Photographs by Nancy Baron
Contributions by Alexa Dilworth and Matthew Weiner
A tribute to the mid-century modern lifestyle

and the preservation of its architecture.
The dreamy Palm Springs vibe washes over the traveler at the first sightfrom
land or airof the vast windmill farm sprouting from the Southern California
desert; surrounding the town like guards at the gate to paradise.
In Palm SpringsThe Good Life Goes On, Nancy Baron guides us through
this storied American resort town and its mid-century modern lifestyle from
the vantage point of a resident. Baron picks up where she left off in The Good
LifePalm Springs (Kehrer, 2014), documenting, with a positive bias, her ongoing and endless discoveries of her second home and its community of midcentury modern enthusiasts. This large and tight-k nit group of self-proclaimed
modernists are committed to the mid-century modern life style and the preservation of its architecture. Their homes, cars, and clothes pay homage to this carefree post World War II time in US history which glows warmly in their vintage
rearview mirrors. Many of these modernists werent yet born in the 1950s and
1960s, but they find comfort in this reenactment of gentler times.
Barons informal images casually document the carefree Palm Springs lifestyle
as though captured in passing, in the seemingly effortless way that most things
happen in Palm Springs.
Nancy Baron is a documentary photographer based in Los Angeles and Palm
Springs, California. Her work is held in public and private collections and has
been exhibited in galleries across the United States.

With her latest photographic series, Jessica Backhaus examines universal questions of human existence. Based on her own life story she inquires after the
significance of the roots of ones own existence and to what extent it is pos
sible to re-elaborate theseu sually prescribedroots. With her photographs,
she symbolically captures the essence of this search and of her life stages.
Simultaneously, she pulls off the balancing act of keeping the images open for
the beholder. Her photographs possess metaphoric potential and work against
the grain of classic social documentary photography. They alternate between
realism and abstraction.

distinguished voices in contemporary
photography in Germany today.

Matt Henrys artistic practice focuses on the politics of America during the
1960s and 1970s. The works take the form of fictional narrative scenes staged
across set-builds and dressed locations, where Henry employs his own prop and
costume styling, storyboarding, and set design. The use of light and color in
Henrys photographs is masterful and the perfection of his protagonists and still
lives is alluring, yet he maintains an ambiguity that challenges the viewer to address their own imagination in considering the works.
The imagery plays with fragments of American photography, cinema, and literature from his chosen period to explore underlying ideological concerns.

Ernst Ludwig Kirchner -
The Artist as Photographer
Photographs by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner
Edited by Thorsten Sadowsky
Like many of his contemporaries, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner (18801938) was
fascinated by the possibilities of photography and explored the medium in vari
ous ways. In his work, there is a noticeable interdependency of photography
and painting, creating an almost photographic pictorial conception.
This catalog assembles a selection of about 140 photographic works and pre
sents examples of all genres in which Kirchner worked: from nudes, studio
scenes, and portraits to landscapes and object photographs. Although Kirchner
did not consider himself a photographic artist, he did extensively exploit the
possibilities of the medium of photography.

Found Not Taken

Photographs and text by Edson Chagas
Contribution by Ana Balona de Oliveira
For this series, Angolan artist Edson Chagas walked through the streets of
Luanda, London, and Newport, collecting discarded objects and moving them,
at times slightly and in other instances significantly, before photographing
them. Taken out of their context and photographed in relation to a carefully
chosen background, the mundane items are turned into abstract icons that ani
mate the city.
Found Not Taken consists of a selection from the series that represented
Angola at the Venice Biennale 2013, winning the Golden Lion for Best National
Participation. Chagass works were recently shown at the Museum of Modern
Art and the Walther Collection Project Space in New York.

In my experience, the two most significant characteristics of war are horror and
absurdity, says Christoph Bangert, the German photojournalist who has been
documenting crises for international publications such as the New York Times.
Following his examination of the way our society deals with graphic images in
his critically acclaimed book War Porn (Kehrer, 2014), in his new book he confronts the bitter absurdity of war. He opposes our clichd notion of modern war
as a dynamic, dramatic, and heroic experience with his calm and composed, but
equally odd and alien images of the wars in Afghanistan, Gaza, Darfur, Lebanon,
and Iraq.
Christoph Bangert shows us

the absurd side of war.
Embed in Egypt
A Story Without a Beginning
Photographs and text by Emine Gozde Sevim

As tensions rise in the aftermath of Hosni Mubaraks fall and protests and violence continues in the streets, Embed in Egypt tells the story of a parallel reality
of everyday life, manifested in personal moments. Covering the period between
20112013, this series of black and white photographs is a reconstruction of a
prolonged personal memory. In the midst of a historical transition and the dynamic human story within, Embed in Egypt depicts an evolving, complex, and
non-linear reality, expressed in the language of a photographic diary.

Photographs by Frank Hallam Day

Contribution by Brian Curtin
This book compiles Frank Hallam Days multivalent series of photographs of
Bangkoks battered public phone booths, magnets for the detritus of daily life
in a metropolis. Days intimate yet subtly epic images register traces of the demands that govern our urban existence: job postings, signs of commercial
pleasure, and listings for entertainment spectacles or social advancement opportunities. Many of the markings in the booths are tags by graffiti artists and
messages left by street protestors during the recent years of Thailands political meltdown.

A Spectacle and Nothing Strange

Photographs by Ahndraya Parlato
Essay by Christian Hawkey
Irrational images flash through our minds all the time, in dreams and daydreams.
Ahndraya Parlatos work imagines an oscillation between these internal and
external images, revealing the possibilities of different realities. Combining
ten years worth of images, this book draws on Parlatos experience of being
raised by a single mother who was mentally ill. Parlato was put in the position of
having to decide whether her mothers observations and fears were real or imagined. These photographs allow her to move between various realities, acknowledging the validity of her mothers world, while also questioning the boundaries
of normal, abnormal, sane, and insane.

Jim DineI Never Look Away

Art by Jim Dine
Edited by Antonia Hoerschelmann and Klaus Albrecht Schrder
Jim Dine ranks alongside figures such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and
Wayne Thibaud as one of the celebrated stars of American pop art. Dines self-
portraits, which he began painting in the 1950s, serve to catalyze an independent, intense, and surprising dialogue with the artist and his output. Dines
diverse experiments with a wide range of techniques and materials address
themes including youth and old age, intimacy and extroversion, and seriality
and creativity. This enables these self-portraits to open up new insights into a
supposedly familiar oeuvre. The book presents a selection of almost one hundred fascinating self-portraits.

Perspectives on Morality
and Human Well-Being
A Contribution to Islamic Economics
Sayed Nawab Haider Naqvi

This book explores in detail the proposition that (private) morality, especially
religious morality, is vital for achieving economic well-being and human happiness; and that this linkage would be even stronger in an Islamic economy. The
book highlights the need for an active interaction between religion, morality,
and economics in general and in an (idealized) Islamic economy in particular.

The Gospel of Simon
John Smelcer
A retelling of a familiar story in the voice of Simon of Cyrene,
who helped carry the cross for Jesus.
In a world where the media relentlessly enflames fear and hatred, here is a quiet
voice espousing the triumph of love and peace.A rchbishop Desmond Tutu
This book shows the many similarities between Buddhism and Christianity,
such as the practices of compassion, love, contemplation, and tolerance.
The Dalai Lama
This may be exactly the way it happened. A tour de force.Tom OHorgan,
director of Jesus Christ Superstar
May this book bring a lot of benefit to people who read it.Th ich Nhat Hanh,
Love in Action
Smelcer gives us a Jesus who condemns those who . . . oppress or enslave others
and incite hatred, intolerance, bigotry, and violence.Coretta Scott King
Two thousand years ago, an itinerant Jewish preacher was condemned to crucifixion. A man named Simon, from Cyrene, was compelled to help Jesus carry the
heavy cross. What did he and Jesus talk about? Eager to learn more about this
rabbi, Simon returned to Jerusalem the next day. What he learned changed
his life, and gave his descendants an incredible secret.
John Smelcer is the author of over fifty books, many translated and published
worldwide. He contributed to the revised map of global Christianity in the tenth
edition of Living Religions (Mary Pat Fisher, editor), and, with the Dalai Lama,
co-authored a poem on compassion. Smelcers education includes postdoctoral
studies at Cambridge, Oxford, and Harvard, where he studied Buddhism, Islam
and Sufism, Hinduism, Judaism, and Christianity, including the historical Jesus
of Nazareth.

The Solace of Monsters
Laurie Blauner
Mara, a young Frankenstein, leaves home to find herself,

but discovers she is not the only one struggling with self-identity.
Blauner never shies away from the grotesque, or the beautiful. . . . Courageous
and innovative and mesmerizing, Frankenstein for a new age.Helen Phillips,
The Beautiful Bureaucrat
A statement about the nature of evil and its inevitability, even necessity, that reveals the tragic essence of [Blauners] vision and her adroitness with metaphor.
Jerome Gold, The Moral Life of Soldiers
If Solace was like its protagonistbuilt from others body partsit might
draw its parts from Ishiguros Never Let Me Go, Haddons The Curious Incident
of the Dog in the Night-Time, and, naturally, Frankenstein. In the end, Solace is
its own weird and wonderful creation, the story of the fifth version of a daughter who, despite being haunted by lives she never led . . . simply wants to be
herself.M ark Brazaitis, The Incurables
Created by a grieving father, Mara F. is haunted by previous Maras. One day
she escapes into the world. The Solace of Monsters contrasts the creation of life
with its ending. How does an artificial creature discover life? What do her adventures tell us about natural life and our own attempts to survivea nd find
solacei n the world?
Laurie Blauner is the author of three novels and seven books of poetry. She
received a National Endowment of the Arts Fellowship and Seattle Arts
Commission, King County Arts Commission, 4Culture, and Artist Trust
grants and awards. She was a resident at Centrum in Washington State and was

Finding Joseph I
The Journey from Bad Brains Through My Mysterious Mind:
An Oral History
Paul (H.R.) Hudson and Howie Abrams

with James Lathos
The legendary front man of Bad Brains lost his mind and then,
improbably, found his way back to sanity and stability.
The front man and spiritual leader of Bad Brains almost singlehandedly turned
punk into hardcore, with a ferocity never before seen in music. Paul (H.R.)
Hudson did so with love and Rasta in his heart, plus a hopefulness never before
found within the oft-g loomy confines of punk rock.
Hudsons journey has been riddled with unprecedented volatility. He would
go missing in action for months. There were drugs, violence, and deep, painful
bouts with a debilitating mental illnessa disorder so powerful that its difficult
to fathom how he even survived it.
How could one so tremendously troubled leave behind such an incredible
body of workwith plans for moreand have made such an indelible impact?
In Finding Joseph I, we find out, through H.R.s voice, from interviews conducted
throughout various stages of his illness and recovery, as well as the words of his
family, bandmates past and present, friends, and those he has influenced. Other
voices include members of Bad Brains, Minor Threat, the Roots, Living Color,
Deftones, 311, Fishbone, the Wailers, Cro-M ags, Dead Prez, Murphys Law,
Sublime, and many more.

What are Jews doing in the chaotic Middle East when they could have been living
peacefully in the state of Isra-Isle, near Niagara Falls? In 1825 Mordecai Noah, a
diplomat, bought Grand Island as a refuge for Jews. The novel opens in September
2001 when Liam Emanuel, an Israeli descendant of Noah, learns about and inherits the island. He leaves Israel with a burning desire to reclaim this historic
Promised Land in America. Shortly after he arrives in America, Liam vanishes
with no trace. Simon T. Lenox, a police investigator of Native American origin,
tries to recover Israels missing son. While following in Liam Emanuels footsteps, Lenox learns about Jews and Israelis, and why this strange tribe of wanderers has been troubling the world for so long.
Nava Semel has published novels, short stories, poetry, plays, childrens books,
and a number of TV scripts. Her books have been translated and published in
many countries. Her book Becoming Gershona received the 1990 National Jewish

Oedipus in Brooklyn and Other Stories
Blume Lempel
Translated by Ellen Cassedy and Yermiyahu Ahron Taub
This volume gives English readers the opportunity to enjoy the stories of
Blume Lempel, Yiddish literatures most remarkable woman writer.
[These] stories give English readers an unprecedented opportunity to delve

into a substantial body of prose by Blume Lempel, an important voice in post
World War II Yiddish letters.Jeffrey Shandler, Adventures in Yiddishland:
Postvernacular Language and Culture
This finally makes accessible to a wider audience . . . [Lempels] stories about the
erotic and intellectual life of (mostly) women and men, their psychological and
historical motivations, the horror of the Holocaust and the desire to renew life
even as one mourns.A nita Norich, Writing in Tongues: Translating Yiddish in
the 20th Century
This is the first English-language collection of the best stories by Blume Lempel
(19071999). While many of her stories opened a window on the Old World
and the Holocaust, she also wrote about the margins of society, about subjects
considered untouchable, among them abortion, prostitution, womens erotic
imaginings, and even incest. She illuminated the inner lives of her characters
mostly women. Her storylines migrate between past and present, Old World
and New, dream and reality, modern-d ay New York and prewar Poland, bedtime story and passionate romance, and old-age dementia and girlhood dreams.
Immigrating to New York when Hitler rose to power, Blume Lempel began
publishing her short stories in 1945. By the 1970s her work had become known
throughout the Yiddish literary world. When she died in 1999, the Yiddish paper
Forverts wrote: Yiddish literature has lost one of its most remarkable women
writers.
Ellen Cassedy is author of the award-w inning study We Are Here, about the
Lithuanian Holocaust. With her colleague Yermiyahu Ahron Taub, they received

A Caribbean zombiesmart, gentlemanly, financially independent, and a top

executive at an important pharmaceutical companybecomes obsessed with
finding the formula that would reverse his condition and allow him to become a
real person. In the process, three of his closest collaborators (cerebral and calculating Isadore, wide-eyed and sentimental Mathilde, and rambunctious Patricia),
guide the reluctant and baffled scientist through the unpredictable intersections
of love, passion, empathy, and humanity. But the playful maze of jealousy and
amorous intrigue that a living being would find easy to negotiate represents an
insurmountable tangle of dangerous ambiguities for our undead protagonist.
Wicked Weeds is put together from Isadores scrapbook, where she has collected her boss scientific goals and existential agony, as well as her own reflections about growing up as a Haitian descendant in the Dominican Republic and
what it really means to be human. The end result is a precise combination of
Caribbean noir and science fiction, Latin Americanstyle.

MDC:
Memoir from a Damaged Civilization
Stories of Punk, Fear, and Redemption
Dave Dictor
A searing punk memoir by an American original who rebelled against
conformity, complacency, and conservatism with his iconic band, MDC.
From the time Dave Dictor was young, he knew he was a little different than the
all-A merican kids around him. Radicalized politically while in high school, inspired to seize opportunities by his hard-working parents, and intrigued with
gender fluidity, Dictor moved to Austin, and connected with local misfits and
anti-establishment rocknrollers. He began penning songs that have influenced
American punk rock for decades.
MDC always has been in the vanguard of social struggles, confronting
homophobia in punk rock during the early 1980s; invading Americas heartland at sweltering Rock Against Reagan shows; protesting the Popes visit to
San Francisco in 1987; in 1993 they were the first touring US punk band to reach
a volatile Russia after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Dictors narrative is a raw portrait of an American underground folk-hero
who stood on the barricades advocating social justice and spreading punks
promise to a global audience. Part poet, renegade, satirist, and lover, he is an
authentic, homegrown character carrying the progressive punk fight into the
twenty-fi rst century.
Dave Dictor is singer, lyricist, and founding member of legendary American punk
band MDC (Millions of Dead Cops). Since 1979, Dictor has toured throughout
the world with MDC, releasing more than nine albums with MDC. MDC con
tinues to tour, playing more than sixty concerts each year. Dictors MDC song
John Wayne Was a Nazi was featured in the best-selling video game Grand
Theft Auto 5. He appeared in the film American Hardcore and resides in Portland,
Oregon.

Justin Chin: Selected Works
Edited by Jennifer Joseph
Noted literary figures pay tribute to poet and writer Justin Chin
with personal commentaries on works selected from his seven books.
Justin Chins fearless and fierce voice was resolute in relating his worldview,
whether directly or through metaphorical language. As a queer Asian American,
born and raised in Southeast Asia within a devoutly Christian, ethnically
Chinese family of medical professionals, Chins early life experience informed
his writing and framed his point of view. In his literary works, the seemingly conflicted duality of existence is paramount: sacred and profane, saints and sinners,
health and illness, hope and despair, and life and death. His works also explore
his experience of living with HIV, which progressed into AIDS in his final years.
This unique collection of Chins literary legacy will serve as a primer for those
new to his work, as well as a loving tribute by those writers who knew him and
his work best. It contains previously unpublished recent work.
Among many others, contributing writers include R. Zamora Linmark
(Rolling the Rs), Michelle Tea (How To Grow Up), Timothy Liu (Dont Go Back
To Sleep), and Lois-A nn Yamanaka (Night at the Pahala Theatre).

The Homemade Vegan
Joanne OConnell
A look back in timewhen the vegan diet was part of the counterculture.
Recipes, nostalgia, and true vegetarianism.
Dairy-free diets are now in vogue. Soya yoghurts, almond milk, coconut ice
cream, and tofu are widely sold in supermarkets. Vegan cafs and restaurants are
popping up everywhere. And theres plenty going on in the media too: as celebrities ditch the white stuff, scientists debate the impact of veganism on climate
change.
It wasnt always like this. Back in the 1970s and 1980s, eating a plant-only
diet was seen as a far more radical and counter-culture choice than it is today. At
that time, even lacto-vegetariansthose who eat dairy and honey but no meat or
fishwere on the fringes (It felt like we were a different sect of people, said Mary
McCartney, Paul McCartneys daughter, of her vegetarian family in the 1970s.)
Vegans were ahead of their time. They were inventive, resourceful, and creative. They squeezed vegetable juices, creamed cashew nuts into cheeses, poured
tofu into blocks (you couldnt nip out to the grocers to buy a pack), mashed lentils into rissoles, and stirred up everything from sugar-f ree puddings to soups
and goulashes. What they came up with was an affordable way to eat healthy
dairy alternatives, without the added chemicals, sugar, and salt, which are now
so often added to the processed versions produced by major food manufacturers.
This book is a collection of recipes from this time; it also gives them a proper
context, referring to the communities and households who created the recipes
and what it was like for vegans back then.

This book is about the cooking and lifestyle of both the French and Spanish
Basque regions, since, sharing their own language, the two countries are really
one nation. The small towns are unlike any other, with restaurant names that
sound explosive: Berasategui, Arbalaitz, Arzak, and Atxa.
Basque food is all the rage, and pintxos, using elvers (small eels), fish, garlic mayonnaise, and chorizo, are very popular. One wanders from eatery to
eatery, sampling specialties rather than opting for a full meal. The region and
food need an accomplished cook and food historian to explain them, which
Caroline Conran has done.
The coastal Atlantic:

South West France, the Basque
country, and the Bay of Biscay, home to
intense flavors, pintxos, and seafood.
Food Worth Fighting For

From Food Riots to Food Banks
Josh Sutton
This book takes a look at food riots in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries
and food-related social conflict, from the Newlyn fish riots to the Cod Wars.
Using words and verse from contemporary broadside ballads and folk songs,
Josh Sutton looks closely at the evolution of the modern food system.
He suggests that the spirit of the food riot is still very much alive today, and
is apparent in the practice of those engaged in providing food charity in modern
Britain and in the United States, where food banks and recycling of supermarket
waste are now common and vital.

Arguing Science
A Dialogue on the Future of Science and Spirit
Rupert Sheldrake and Michael Shermer

Two controversial authors debate the nature and methods of science, its dogmas, and its future. Rupert Sheldrake argues that science needs to free itself from
materialist dogma while Michael Shermer contends that science, properly conceived, is a materialistic enterprise; for science to look beyond materialist explanations is to betray science and engage in superstition. Issues discussed include:
materialism and its role in science, whether belief in God is compatible with a
scientific perspective, and parapsychology.
Michael Shermer is editor-in-chief of Skeptic magazine and the author of numerous books including Skeptic: Viewing the World with a Rational Eye.
Rupert Sheldrake is a biologist and author of ten books including his most
recent, Science Set Free, which challenges scientific dogma.

The Earthy Mysticism of St. Teresa, the Wild Woman of Avila
Revised Edition
Tessa Bielecki
Foreword by Adam Bucko
Tessas deep intimacy with Teresa of Avila . . . creates an invitational space for
readers of any tradition (or none) to enter into their own transformational relationship with the wild woman of Avila.M irabai Starr
This fresh, upbeat, and deftly profound book joyfully reconnects the fullness of
our lives and the depth of our prayer. Much more than yet another book about
a great saint who once was, it actually rekindles something of St. Teresas outrageous spiritual impulse for contemporary readers, particularly those who describe themselves as spiritual, not religious.
Tessa Bielecki is the author of several books on St. Teresa of Avila, as well as a
former Abbess.

One World Two
A Second Global Anthology of Short Stories
Edited by Chris Brazier and Ovo Adagha

Foreword by Elleke Boehmer
The follow-up to One World and another globe-trotting
collection of stories, introducing a diverse range of writers,
narratives and perspectives.
Another globe-trotting collection of stories, One World Two is the eagerly awaited
follow-up to One World. But it is more than simply an anthology of short fiction, as
it contains representative literature from all over the world, conveying the reader
on thought-provoking journeys across continents, cultures, and landscapes.
One World Two is even more ambitious than volume one in its geographic
scope, featuring twenty-one writers drawn from every continent. Most of the
stories are unique to this volume, with some writers appearing for the first time in
English (such as Egypts Mansoura Ez-Eldin and Brazils Vanessa Barbara). The
themes and writing styles are as richly diverse as the writers origins.
The collection is centered around a loose theme of building bridges. It is interested in the human condition as a dynamic central line linking individuals, cultures and experiences: east and west, north and south, and, perhaps most
importantly, past, present, and future.
This book features established stars such as Edwidge Danticat (Breath, Eyes,
Memory), Viet Thanh Nguyen (The Sympathizer), and Aminatta Forna (The Hired
Man), as well as authors who are steadily building a reputation such as Fan Wu,
Ana Menndez, and Daniel Alarcon.
In order of appearance, the authors are: Yewande Omotoso, Viet Thanh
Nguyen, Heidi North-Bailey, Ana Menndez, Mathew Howard, Okwiri Oduor,
Desiree Bailey, Vamba Sherif, Alice Melike Ulgezer, Daniel Alarcon, Mansoura
Ez-Eldin, Aminatta Forna, Nahid Rachlin, Samuel Munene, Vanessa Barbara,
Retsepile Makamane, Fan Wu, Olufemi Terry, Balli Kaur Jaswal, Chris Brazier,
and Edwidge Danticat. The collection is edited and compiled by Ovo Adagha
and Chris Brazier.
Chris Brazier has been a co-editor at New Internationalist since 1984. For most
of his career he worked on the monthly magazine but for the past decade has
commissioned and edited New Internationalists booksincluding editing the

Why Technology Turns Toxic in an Unequal World

A hard-hitting historical analysis of technology that uses the

Capitalism likes us to believe in the steady, inevitable march of progress, from

the abacus to the iPad. But the historical record tells of innumerable roads not
taken, all of which could have led to better, more equal worldsand still can.
Academic and activist Bob Hughes puts flesh on the bones of the idea that
another world is possible, using as evidence the technology that capitalism
claims as quintessentially its own: the computer in all its forms.
Contrary to popular belief, capitalism does not do innovation wellinstead,
it suppresses and appropriates it. This book shows that great innovations have
never emerged from capitalism per se, but always from the utopian moments that
occur behind the capitalists back. And when capitalism does embrace an innovation, the results are often the diametric opposite of what the innovators intended.
In this thorough and meticulous work, Hughes argues that if we only priori
tized equality over materialism, superior and more diverse technologies would
emerge, leading to a richer, more sustainable world.
Bob Hughes is an academic, activist, and author. He formerly taught electronic
media at Oxford Brookes University and now spends his time researching and
campaigning against inequality. He is the author of Dust or Magic, a book for
digital multimedia workers, about how people do good stuff with computers.
He is a member of No One is Illegal, which campaigns for the total abolition of
immigration controls, and for whom he has written many articles.

Marketing Plans
After decades of missed opportunities, the door to a sustainable future has

closed, and the future we face now is one in which todays industrial civilization
unravels in the face of uncontrolled climate change and resource depletion.
What is the world going to look like when all these changes have run their
course? Author John Michael Greer seeks to answer this question, and with some
degree of accuracy, since civilizations tend to collapse in remarkably similar ways.
Dark Age America, then, seeks to map out in advance the history of collapse,
giving us an idea of what the next five hundred years or so might look like as globalization ends and North American civilization reaches the end of its lifecycle
and enters the stages of decline and fall.
In many ways, this is Greers most uncompromising work, though by no
means without hope to offer. Knowing where were headed collectively is a crucial step in responding constructively to the challenges of the future and doing
what we can now to help our descendants make the most of the world were leaving them.
John Michael Greer, historian of ideas and one of the most influential authors
exploring the future of industrial society, writes the widely cited weekly blog
the Archdruid Report and has published more than thirty books including The
Long Descent, The Ecotechnic Future, The Wealth of Nature, and After Progress. He
lives in Cumberland, Maryland, an old mill town in the Appalachians, with his

Shrinking the Technosphere
Getting a Grip on the Technologies that Limit
our Autonomy, Self-Sufficiency and Freedom
Dmitry Orlov
Making wise individual choices about technology use
may just be the way it really saves us.
Over the past two centuries we have witnessed a wholesale replacement of most
of the previous methods of conducting both business and daily life with new,
technologically advanced, more efficient methods.
What exactly is progressive or efficient about this new arrangement is hardly
ever examined in depth: if the new ways of doing things are so much better, then
we must all be leading relaxed, stress-f ree, enjoyable lives with plenty of free time
to devote to art and leisure activities. But a more careful look at these changes
shows us that many of these advances are not weighing favourably in a harm/
benefit comparison. The harm to the environment, society, and even to our own
personalities, on an individual level, is plain to see, but is brushed off with hollow
claims about efficiency and progress.
Shrinking the Technosphere guides readers through the process of bringing
technology down to a manageable number of carefully chosen, essential, well-
understood and controllable elements. It is about regaining the freedom to use
technology for our own benefit, and is critical reading for all who seek to get back
to a point where technologies assist us rather than control us.
Dmitry Orlov was born in Leningrad, USSR, and emigrated to the United States
in the mid-1970s. He holds degrees in Computer Engineering and Linguistics,
and has worked in a variety of fields, including high-energy physics, Internet
commerce, network security, and advertising. He is the author of several previous books, including Reinventing Collapse and The Five Stages of Collapse.

Caught between climate change and a fossil-fuel d riven economy that demands
ever more growth, the world faces a great transitionby design or disaster
away from fossil fuels to a less energy-intensive future.
But what proven tools are available to aid in making a successful, deliberate
transition to a resilient, sustainable future?
For the first time, the power of permaculture design has been brought to bear
on the great transition problem. In the process, acclaimed permaculture teacher
and designer Ross Mars has distilled his considerable knowledge into the ultimate
resource for resilient living.
The Permaculture Transition Manual is packed with information on perma
culture design principles, soil building, and nutrient-dense food growing, including top plant and tree selections for all climatic zones. Coverage extends
to rainwater harvesting and irrigation, human waste management, and strategies for rural properties, plus a unique focus on applying permaculture to small
urban spaces for decluttering and efficient food growing. Also covered are hand
tools, food preservation, energy production, and low-carbon housing along with
a plethora of nearly forgotten skills such as soap making, basket weaving, seed
saving, rope making, candle making, and more.
On the desert island of a world in decline, this is the one-stop guide to vibrant,
resilient living youll want to take with you.

Fresh, local, nutrient-dense fruits and vegetables are hard to find during winter in cold climates. Growing warm-weather crops like tomatoes, bananas, avocados, and other perennials is nearly impossible using conventional structures.
The solution for millions of backyard and small-scale commercial growers is self-
heating solar greenhouses.
The Year-R ound Solar Greenhouse is the one-stop guide to designing and
building greenhouses that harness and store energy from the sun to create natu
rally heated, lush growing environments even in the depths of winter. It covers principles of solar greenhouse design and siting, glazing material properties
and selection, controlling heat loss, ventilation, and construction methods.
Additionally, an in-depth section covers sustainable ways of heating the greenhouse without fossil fuels, including using thermal mass and storing heat underground with a ground-to-air heat exchanger.
Variations include attached solar greenhouses, earth-sheltered greenhouses,
and integrating hydroponics and aquaponics. More than a dozen case studies
from across North America provide inspiration and demonstrate specific challenges and solutions for growing year-round in any climate.
Grow your own food, anytime, anywhere using the power of the sun!
Lindsey Schiller is a greenhouse designer and, with co-author Marc Plinke, co-
owner of Ceres Greenhouse Solutions. Lindsey has designed, toured, and helped
build hundreds of energy-efficient greenhouses from small residential structures
to acre-size commercial facilities.
Marc Plinke is an inventor-innovator with a PhD in engineering who has focused
his engineering mindset on building innovative, energy-efficient, and smarter
greenhouses, with the intention of enabling people to grow their own food sustainably and year-round.

The Scything Handbook
Learn How to Cut Grass, Mow Meadows,
and Harvest Grain with a Scythe
Ian Miller
Foreword by Kiko Denzer
The Zen approach to mowing lawns, wacking weeds,
harvesting crops, and building modern homesteader abs!
Dreading the weekly lawn mow? Need to whack the weeds in your orchard?
Cringing at the drudgery and incessant blare of the mower? Imagine instead
long sweeps of an elegant scythe cutting your grass and pesky weeds in blissful,
meditative silence.
That is the power of the scythe revolution sweeping North America.
Written by a master of the scythe, professionally trained in Austria, and
drawing deeply on research into original German texts, The Scything Handbook
brings centuries-old scything techniques into the twenty-fi rst century.
Detailed illustrations cover scythe assembly, perfecting the stroke, blade selection, honing, peening, and aftercare, as well as background on how scythes are
forged. Also covered are the basics of making hay and mulch by hand, and how
to grow and harvest gains at the home and homestead scale for self-sufficiency.
Scything promotes health, flexibility, mind-body connection, and a meditative contemplation of the natural world while producing beautiful lawns and
luscious mulch for the modern gardener and homesteader. This is truly an heirloom tool to master.
Join the scythe revolution!
Ian Miller followed a career in music with a degree in Agroecology from UC
Santa Cruz. During a two-year stint on a biodynamic farm in Austria he learned
how to scythe and delved into historic scything texts in German. He has worked
for Seed Savers Exchange in Iowa and is developing a twenty-acre scythe-based
homestead near Decorah, Iowa, where he grows his own grain for bread-making
and makes hay by hand.

Poor heat and moisture management are the enemies of durable, comfortable, and
efficient housing, and good building design and construction starts with a solid
understanding of good building science.
Essential Building Science provides a highly visual and accessible introduction to
the fundamentals of building science for residential construction.
Part one covers the rationale behind high performance design and the fundamentals of building physics, including thermal dynamics, moisture transfer,
and hygro-t hermal dynamics such as vapor drive and condensation.
Part two teaches the vital critical thinking skills needed to consider buildings as whole systems and to develop thermal and moisture control strategies
regardless of the specifics of the design. Case studies and examples from across
North American climatic zones illuminate real-life problems and offer builders,
designers, and DIYers the insights and tools required for creating better new
buildings and dramatically improving old ones.
Good science plus critical thinking equals high performance buildings.
Jacob Deva Racusin is a sustainable and natural building designer, builder, and
educator. He is co-author of The Natural Building Companion, contributor to The

The Year of the Comet
Sergei Lebedev
Translated by Antonina W. Bouis
A stunning novel about growing up in Russia on the brink of collapse,

from the preeminent storyteller of his generation.
A clear poetic sensibility built to stand against the forces of erasure.

The Wall Street Journal
Lebedev takes his place beside Solzhenitsyn and other great writers who have
refused to abide by silence.K irkus Reviews
From the critically acclaimed author of Oblivion comes The Year of the Comet, a
story of a Russian boyhood and coming-of-age as the Soviet Union is on the brink
of collapse. An idyllic childhood takes a sinister turn. Rumors of a serial killer
haunt the neighborhood, families pack up and leave town without a word of
warning, and the country begins to unravel. Policemen stand by as protesters
overtake the streets, knowing that the once awe-inspiring symbols of power they
wear on their helmets have become devoid of meaning. Sergei Lebedev depicts a
vast empire coming apart at the seams, transforming a very public moment into
something tender and personal, and writes with stunning beauty and shattering
insight about childhood and the growing consciousness of a boy in the world.
Sergei Lebedev was born in Moscow in 1981 and worked for seven years on geological expeditions in Russia and Central Asia. Lebedev is a poet, essayist, and
journalist. Oblivion, his first novel, was published in 2016 by New Vessel Press,
to great acclaim.

What is Venice worth? To whom does this urban treasure belong? This eloquent book by internationally renowned art historian Salvatore Settis urgently
poses these questions, igniting a new debate about the Pearl of the Adriatic
and cultural patrimony at large. Venetians are increasingly abandoning
their hometownt heres now only one resident for every one hundred forty
visitorsa nd Venices fragile fate has become emblematic of the future of historic cities everywhere as it capitulates to tourists and those who profit from
them. In If Venice Dies, a fiery blend of history and cultural analysis, Settis argues that hit-a nd-r un visitors are turning landmark urban settings into shopping malls and theme parks. This is a passionate plea to secure the soul of
Venice, written with consummate authority, wide-ranging erudition, and lan.
Salvatore Settis is an archaeologist and art historian and former director of the
Getty Research Institute of Los Angeles and the Scuola Normale Superiore of
Pisa. He is chairman of the Louvre Museums Scientific Council. Settis, often
considered the conscience of Italy for his role in spotlighting the neglect of its
cultural heritage, is the author of several books on art history.

A Memoir from the Womens Art Movement, New York City
19701992
Sabra Moore
Forewords by Lucy Lippard and Margaret Randall
This bold memoir of New York Citys activist womens art movement
features 949 artworks that pushed the eras social change.
In this abundantly illustrated narrative, author Sabra Moore chronicles twenty-

two years of her life and interactions with other women artists finding ways to
create politically and personally meaningful artworks, exhibitions, protests, and
institutions in response to war, government corruption, struggles for reproductive freedom, and racial tensiona ll while fighting for greater representation

and thoughtful introspection about writing, identity, family, and dreams,
Moore illuminates a breadth of womens struggles and triumphs. She writes of
her volunteer work in New York Citys first legal abortion clinic, her own nearly
fatal incomplete abortion in Guinea, and the abuse she experienced in a relationship with her former art teacher. Journals she kept reveal details of her work

Like a sequel to the prescient warnings of urbanist Jane Jacobs, Dr. Mindy
Thompson Fullilove reveals the disturbing outcome of decades of urban renewal
projects to communities of color. For those whose homes and neighborhoods
were bulldozed, the urban modernization projects that swept America starting in 1949 were nothing short of an assault. Vibrant city blocksplaces rich in
culturewere torn apart by freeways and other invasive development, blatantly
devastating the lives of poor residents.
Fullilove passionately describes the profound traumatic stressthe root
shockthat results when a neighborhood is demolished. She estimates that
federal and state urban renewal programs, spearheaded by business and real estate interests, destroyed 1,600 African American districts in cities across the
United States. But urban renewal didnt just disrupt black communities: the anger
it caused led to riots that sent whites fleeing for the suburbs, stripping them of
their sense of place as well. It also left big gashes in the centers of cities that are
only now slowly being repaired.
Focusing on the Hill District of Pittsburgh, the Central Ward in Newark, and
the small Virginia city of Roanoke, Dr. Fullilove argues powerfully against policies of displacement. Understanding the damage caused by root shock is crucial
to coping with its human toll and helping cities become whole.
Mindy Thompson Fullilove, MD, is a research psychiatrist at New York State
Psychiatric Institute and professor of clinical psychiatry and public health at
Columbia University. She is the author of five books.

Chronicle of the Murdered House
Lcio Cardoso
Translated by Margaret Jull Costa and Robin Patterson
Introduction by Benjamin Moser
This never-before-translated classic of Brazilian

literature is a Faulknerian saga depicting the unraveling
of a traditional patriarchal family.
The book itself is strangepart Faulknerian meditation on the perversities,

including sexual, of degenerate country folk; part Dostoevskian examination
of good and evil and Godbut in its strangeness lies its rare power, and in the
sincerity and seriousness with which the essential questions are posed lies its
greatness.Benjamin Moser, from the introduction
Long considered one of the most important works of twentieth-century Brazilian
literature, Chronicle of the Murdered House is finally available in English.
Set in the southeastern state of Minas Gerais, the novel relates the dissolution of a once-proud patriarchal family now represented by Timteo, a gay scion
who wanders the ancestral mansion dressed in his mothers clothes. This downfall, peppered by stories of decadence, adultery, incest, and madness, is related
through a variety of narrative devices, including letters, diaries, memoirs, statements, confessions, and accounts penned by the various characters.
Lcio Cardoso (19121968) turned away from the social realism fashionable in
1930s Brazil and opened the doors of Brazilian literature to introspective works
such as those of Clarice Lispectorh is greatest follower and admirer.
Dame Margaret Jull Costa has translated dozens of works from both Spanish
and Portuguese, including books by Javier Maras and Jos Saramago. Her translations have received numerous awards, including the International IMPAC Dublin
Literary Award. In 2014 she was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire.
Robin Patterson was mentored by Margaret Jull Costa, and has translated Our
Musseque by Jos Luandino Vieira.

Near the beginning of A Greater Music, the narrator, a young Korean writer,
falls into an icy river in the Berlin suburbs, where shes been housesitting for her
on-a nd-off boyfriend Joachim. This sets into motion a series of memories that
move between the hazily defined present and the period three years ago when
she first lived in Berlin. Throughout, the narrators relationship with Joachim,
a rough-a nd-ready metalworker, is contrasted with her friendship with M, an
ultra-refined, music-loving German teacher, who, it is suggested, later became
her lesbian lover.
A novel of memories and wandering, A Greater Music blends riffs on music, language, and literature with a gut-punch of an emotional ending, establishing Bae
Suah as one of the most exciting novelists working today.
Bae Suah has published more than a dozen works and won several prestigious
awards. She has also translated several books from the German, including works
by W. G. Sebald, Franz Kafka, and Jenny Erpenbeck. Her first book to appear in
English, Nowhere to Be Found, was longlisted for a PEN Translation Prize.
Deborah Smiths literary translations from the Korean include two novels by
Han Kang (The Vegetarian and Human Acts), and two by Bae Suah (A Greater
Music and Recitation).

The Brother
Rein Raud
Translated by Adam Cullen
In this spaghetti western, a mysterious man arrives in a corrupt town

seeking revenge for his sister and upends everything.
Winner of the Eduard Vilde Literary Award.

The Brother opens with a mysterious stranger arriving in a small town controlled
by a group of menmen who recently cheated the strangers supposed sister
out of her inheritance and mothers estate. Resigned to giving up on her dreams
and ambitions, Laila took this swindling in stride, something that Brother
wont stand for. Soon after his arrival, fortunes change dramatically, enraging
this group of powerful men, motivating them to get their revenge on Brother.
Meanwhile, a rat-f aced paralegal makes it his mission to discover Brothers true
identity . . .
The first novel of Rein Rauds to appear in English, The Brother is, in Rauds
own words, a spaghetti western told in poetic prose, simultaneously paying tribute to both Clint Eastwood and Alessandro Baricco. With its well-d rawn characters and quick-moving plot, it takes on more mythic aspects, lightly touching
on philosophical ideas of identity and the ruthless way the world is divided into
winners and losers.

several works of Japanese into Estonian. One of his short pieces appeared in Best

Stylistically provocative, Justine tells the story of a young female artist whose
life is upended when her house burns down with all of the artworks for her upcoming exhibit inside. With little time left to recreate everything shes lost,
Justine embarks on a series of sexual escapades with a sort of doomed intensity
that foreshadows the novels final, dark twist.
Through flashbacks and fragmented memories, we see Justine as a student at
the Art Academy first discovering the misogynistic order that rules the Danish
art world, and later on as she constantly challenges its expectationsboth in
the studio and in bed.
A personal meditation on artistic identity, the creative process, and the
male-dominated art scene, the novel veers between the erotic and the savage,
resulting in a spellbinding read from one of Denmarks edgiest contemporary
feminist writers.
Iben Mondrup is a trained visual artist from the Royal Danish Academy of
Fine Arts who is also the author of four novels, including Justine, its sequel, and
Godhavn.
Kerri A. Pierce has published translations from seven different languages in

An international bestseller in eighteen languages.
In this intriguing and original work, Nuccio Ordine illuminates the usefulness of the useless and the uselessness of the useful. Through the reflections of
great philosophers and writers, Ordine shows how the obsession for material
goods and the cult of utility end up by withering the spirit, thus jeopardizing
not only schools and universities, art, and creativity, but also fundamental values such as human dignity, love, and truth.

ReSignifications links classical and popular representations

ReSignifications links classical and popular representations of African bodies in
European art, culture, and history. It moderates and subverts artistic conventions by using the works of contemporary artists from Africa, Europe, North and
South America, and the Caribbean to engage in dialogue with the broad historical array of ornamental representations of African bodies.

The Brand New Catastrophe
Mike Scalise
Raucous family memoir meets medical adventure in a heartfelt,

hilarious book that explores the public and private theaters of illness.
Winner of the Center for Fictions Doheny Prize

Mike Scalises bold debut is a page-turner of a memoir featuring a sudden and
strange sequence of medical disasters. From its gripping ruptured-brain-t umor
emergency room opening, through a series of medical procedures and oddball
doctors, Scalise creates a sharply observed, uproariously funny, and deeply
moving account of acromegaly, the hormone disorder best known for causing
gigantism. Scalise weaves in meticulous research, social history, and vignettes
about Andre the Giant and a variety of Hollywood acromegalic villains. He
creates a narrative that is informative without feeling pedantic, demonstrating
how he has marshaled the narrative of his life so that he can control it rather
than being controlled by it.
Although his medical story is the primary subject, the emotional engine driving the book is that of his relationship with his mother, a longtime sufferer in her
own right, with a chronic cardiac condition likely exacerbated by her penchant
for chain smoking and late-n ight white wine binges. Sharp-tongued, frustrating, and very funny, Scalises motheroften positioned as his competitor for the
status of best sick personw inds up being the books unlikely hero.
Mike Scalises work has appeared in Agni, Indiewire, the Paris Review, Wall Street
Journal, and other places. He has received fellowships and scholarships from
Bread Loaf, Yaddo, the Ucross Foundation, and was the Philip Roth Writer in
Residence at Bucknell University. He lives in Brooklyn, New York.

Animals Strike Curious Poses
Elena Passarello
With exuberant wit, Elena Passarello casts her gaze on famous historical
animals, crafting an essay collection organized as medieval bestiary.
Elena Passarellos unique and probing intelligence is on display in this captivating

collection of essays, which spotlight famous animals across a history of forty-two
millennia. The book begins with Yuka, a mummified woolly mammoth recently
found in the Siberian permafrost, and moves on to Pleistocene cave paintings, a
crocodile named Osama, war pigeons, a red jungle rooster, a great mountain rescue dog, and de-extincted ibexes.
In a mesmerizing essay about Arabella, the cross spider that spun a web on
Skylab and became the first American female in space, Passarello weaves the reali
ties of the first US space stationNASA jargon, CAPCOM transcripts, and aerodynamic proceduresinto the quieter but no less complex narrative of arachnid
web creation. Employing a wide range of formal and aesthetic modes, Passarello
offers an enthralling follow-up to her award-winning first collection, Let Me Clear
My Throat.
Elena Passarello is an actor, a writer, and recipient of a 2015 Whiting Writers

Writings About Life and Books, 20002015,
with a Journal of a Writers Week
Ursula K. Le Guin
A bright and wide-ranging collection of essays, reviews, talks, and more
from one of our best and most thoughtful writers.
Praise for Ursula K. Le Guin:

I read her nonstop growing up and read her still. What makes her so extraordinary for me is that her commitment to the consequences of our actions, of our
all too human frailties, is unflinching and almost without precedent for a writer
of such human optimism.Junot Diaz
A lot of her work is about telling stories, and what it means to tell stories, and what
stories look like. Shes been extremely influential on me in that area of what I, as
a beginning writer, thought a story must look like, and the much more expansive
view I have now of what a story can be and can do.K aren Joy Fowler
She was and remains a central figure for me.M ichael Chabon
Ursula K. Le Guin is one of our foremost public literary intellectuals and this collection of her recent talks, essays, introductions, and book reviews is the best manual we have for traveling the worlds explored in recent fiction; the most useful
guide to the country were visiting, life.
Ursula K. Le Guin was born in Berkeley, California, in 1929. Among her honors are the National Book Foundations Medal for Distinguished Contribution
to American Letters, a National Book Award, the Hugo, Nebula, and Kafka
awards, a Pushcart Prize, and the Harold D. Vursell Memorial Award from the
American Academy of Arts and Letters. She lives in Portland, Oregon.

readers own place within it.Village Voice
[Crowley] transforms the lead of daily life into seriously dazzling artistic gold.
Newsday
Often described as an alchemical allegory, John Crowley instead decided this is
the first science fiction novel. After all its fiction; its about the possibilities of a
science; and its a novel. No matter what else it might be, its definitely one of the
great outlandish stories in Western literature. With eight appropriately weird and

Best Worst American
Stories
Juan Martinez
Imaginary countries. Real countries. The best and worst

of both in short, cutting, refreshing stories.
Praise for Juan Martinez:

A little out of the ordinary. . . . He takes this very unnatural environment and
changes it into a landscape.Hannah Tinti
I loved it.Etgar Keret
These are the best Americans, the worst Americans. In these stories (these
cities, these people) there are labyrinths, rivers, wildernesses. Voices sound
slightly different than expected. Theres humor, but its going to hurt. In On
Paradise, a petshop manager flies with his cat to Las Vegas to meet his long-
lost mother and grandmother, only to find that the women look exactly like
they did forty years before. In The Spooky Japanese Girl is There For You, the
spooky Japanese girl (a ghost) is there for you, then she is not. These refreshing and invigorating stories of displacement, exile, and identity, of men who
find themselves confused by the presence or absence of extraordinary women,
jump up, demand to be read, and send the reader back to the earth changed:
reminded from these short stories how big the world is.
Juan Martinez was born in Bucaramanga, Colombia, and has lived in Orlando,
Florida, and Las Vegas, Nevada. He now lives in Chicago with his wife, the
writer Sarah Kokernot, and their son and two cats. Hes an assistant professor at Northwestern University. His work and has appeared in Glimmer Train,
McSweeneys, Ecotone, Huizache, TriQuarterly, Conjunctions, the Cossack Review,
the Santa Monica Review, National Public Radios Selected Shorts, Nortons Sudden

From the author of Wake In Fright comes this chilling short novel thats part Wolf
Creek and part Duel.
A young man driving from Sydney to Adelaide for work decides to take a
short detour into the desert. He turns his hatchback on to a notoriously dangerous track that bisects uninhabited stone-covered flats. Out there, under the baking sun, people can die within hours.
Hes not far along the road when a distraught young woman stumbles from
the scrub and flags him down. A journalist from Sydney, she has just escaped the
clutches of an inexplicable, terrifying creature.
Now this desert-dwelling creature has her jeep. Her axe. And her scent . . .
Fear Is the Rider is a nail-biting chase into the outback, towards the devil lurking at its centre. Previously unpublished, the manuscript of this 1980s novella was
recently discovered among Kenneth Cooks papers.
Wake In Fright was made into a film in 1971, arguably the greatest film ever
made in Australia. Lost for many years, the restored film was screened in 2009
at New Yorks Film Forum and at Cannes, winning rave reviews in the New
Yorker and elsewhere. Nick Cave called it the best and most terrifying film about
Australia in existence.

A hard-hitting new drama from the

Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of Ruined.
From first moments to last, this compassionate but clear-eyed play throbs
with heartfelt life, with characters as complicated as any youll encounter at the
theater today, and with a nifty ticking time bomb of a plot. That the people onstage are middle-class or lower-middle-class folkstoo rarely given ample time on
American stagesmakes the play all the more vital a contribution to contemporary drama. . . . If I had pompoms, Id be waving them now.Charles Isherwood,
The New York Times
No stranger to dramas both heartfelt and heart-rending, Pulitzer Prize-w inning
playwright Lynn Nottage has written one of her most exquisitely devastating
tragedies to date. In one of the poorest cities in America, Reading, Pennsylvania,
a group of down-and-out factory workers struggles to keep their present lives in
balance, ignorant of the financial devastation looming in their near futures. Set
in 2008, the powerful crux of this new play is knowing the fate of the characters long before its even in their sights. Based on Nottages extensive research
and interviews with real residents of Reading, Sweat is a topical reflection of the
present and poignant outcome of Americas economic decline.
Lynn Nottages plays include the Pulitzer Prizewinning Ruined; Intimate
Apparel, the most widely produced play of the 20052006 theater season in
America; By the Way, Meet Vera Stark; Fabulation, or the Re-Education of Undine;

99 Monologues by Female and Trans* Playwrights
Volume 1
The Kilroys
A groundbreaking new collection of monologues
brought together by women in theatre for everyone in theatre.
The superheroines of the theater are backa nd better and bolder than ever.
Backstage
These plays have been developed and vetted for artistic excellence; they just
happen to possess the added bonus of representing a voice thats currently being
underproduced. Its part of a larger movement to say: Theres an embarrassment
of riches here.Sheila Callaghan for the Kilroys
Not your typical book of monologues, this new collection embodies the mission of the Kilroys, an advocacy group founded in 2013 to raise awareness for
the underutilized work of female and trans* playwrights. The collection is comprised of ninety-n ine monologues, each from a different play off The List from
2014 and 2015, featuring the most unproduced (or under-produced), yet highest-
recommended, plays by women in the United States. The monologues selected
for this volume serve to highlight the talents of these writers in a wide array of
pieces that vary in genre, style, and gender.
As it says on their website, We Make Trouble and Plays.
The Kilroys are a gang of playwrights and producers in Los Angeles, California,
who advocate for the visibility of women playwrights in theatre. Founded in
2013, the Kilroys are named after the iconic graffiti tag Kilroy Was Here that
was first left by WWII soldiers in unexpected places, a playfully subversive way of
making their presence known. The members include Zakiyyah Alexander, Bekah
Brunstetter, Sheila Callaghan, Carla Ching, Annah Feinberg, Sarah Gubbins,
Laura Jacqmin, Joy Meads, Kelly Miller, Meg Miroshnik, Daria Polatin, Tanya
Saracho, and Marisa Wegrzyn.

Through years of drinking together at Daphnes Dive, a cheap bar on the corner in North Philly, a makeshift family has grown out of the misfit collection
of eclectic regulars. Daphne, the eponymous owner of this ramshackle home,
tends bar and frequently takes part in the meandering chats about art and politics, while her adopted daughter finds herself growing up and possibly growing
further away from the familiar crowd of familial outsiders. Known for her previous plays in the acclaimed Elliot Trilogy, Quiara Alegra Hudes continues to
grapple with what it means to be different and the poignant human instinct
to connect with one another despite the odds.
Quiara Alegra Hudes wrote the book for the Broadway musical In the Heights,
which received the 2008 Tony Award for Best Musical, a Tony nomination for
Best Book of a Musical and was a Pulitzer Prize finalist. Her acclaimed three-part
play cycle, the Elliot Trilogy, includes Elliot, a Soldiers Fugue (a Pulitzer Prize finalist), Water by the Spoonful (2012 Pulitzer Prize for Drama), and The Happiest Song

The Humans
Revised Edition
Stephen Karam
Foreword by Samuel G. Freedman
An updated, revised edition of the Broadway hit.
Declared the best play of the year by The New York Times, The Washington Post,
New York Magazine, Chicago Tribune, The Hollywood Reporter, Time Out New York,
and NPR.
A middle-class family seems to be spiraling toward perilous entropy in The
Humans, the blisteringly funny, bruisingly sad and altogether wonderful play
by Stephen Karam. . . . Written with a fresh-feeling blend of documentarylike
naturalism and theatrical daring. . . Mr. Karams comedy-drama depicts the way
we live now with a precision and compassion unmatched by any play Ive seen in
recent years. . . . The Humans is a major discovery, a play as empathetic as it is clearminded, as entertaining as it is honest. For all the darkness at its corea darkness made literal in its ghostly conclusiona bright light shines forth from it, the
blazing luminescence of collective artistic achievement.Charles Isherwood,
The New York Times
Breaking with tradition, Erik Blake has brought his Pennsylvania family to celebrate Thanksgiving at his daughters apartment in lower Manhattan. Unfolding
over a single scene, this delirious tragicomedy (Chicago Sun-Times) by acclaimed young playwright Stephen Karam infuses the traditional kitchen-sink
family drama with qualities of horror in his portentous and penetrating work of
psychological unease (Variety), creating an indelible family portrait.
Stephen Karams plays include Speech & Debate and Sons of the Prophet, a finalist
for the 2012 Pulitzer Prize and the winner of the 2012 Drama Critics Circle, Outer
Critics Circle, Lucille Lortel, and Hull-Warriner awards for Best Play. Born and
raised in Scranton, PA, he lives in New York City.

Here We Go / Escaped Alone
Two Plays
Caryl Churchill
Two provocative new plays from one of Britains

greatest living playwrights.
What Churchill has written is a striking memento mori for an age without faith;
and although her play is brief, that in itself evokes the idea that we are here for a
short time and then are suddenly gone.The Guardian on Here We Go
Line by line its hard to imagine youll come across a more brilliant play this
year . . . and what makes Escaped Alone a great play is that it is strangely euphoric:
spiked with terrible, apocalyptic foreboding, yes, but Churchills funniest since
Serious Money, and with an incredible gift for spinning light out of the dark.

The prolific repertoire of Caryl Churchill gains two thrilling new entries with
Here We Go and Escaped Alone, both exemplary of her notoriously dark, witty
work. Creeping and ruminative, Here We Go acts as a chilling reminder of our
own mortality (The Guardian), with a three-part examination of death and its
aftermath. Escaped Alone considers a notably broader demise: the apocalypse.
Through the musings of four older women idly chatting in an English back garden, the fate of the world is outlined in an unsettling revelation of mankinds own
self-destruction.
Caryl Churchill has written for the stage, television, and radio. A renowned
and prolific playwright, her plays include Cloud Nine, Top Girls, Far Away, Drunk
Enough to Say I Love You?, Bliss, Love and Information, Mad Forest, and A Number.
In 2002, she received the Obie Lifetime Achievement Award and in 2010, she
was inducted into the American Theater Hall of Fame.

The Detroit Project
Three Plays
Dominique Morisseau
A searing new trilogy depicting black lives

through three defining years in Detroit history.
Detroit 67 is Morisseaus aching paean to her natal city. . . . A deft playwright,

Morisseau plays expertly with social mores and expectations. She also reframes
commonplace things so that we see them in new light.StarTribune on Detroit 67
A deeply moral and deeply American play, with a loving compassion for those
trapped in a system that makes sins, spiritual or societal, and self-betrayal almost
inevitable.The New York Times on Skeleton Crew
Three provocative dramas make up Dominique Morisseaus sweeping examination of the sociopolitical history of Detroit: Detroit 67, which takes place
during the race riots of 1967, Paradise Blue, set in a small jazz club in Detroits
Blackbottom neighborhood, and Skeleton Crew, which explores an auto plant on
the eve of the 2008 financial collapse. These plays serve to showcase the economic and racial tensions the city has faced throughout the past century, which
are often buried by recurrent headlines of poverty and misery that diminish
Detroits vibrant emotional past. With empathetic storytelling and an ear for
the voice of her home community, Morisseau brings to light the race and class
divides of not only Detroit but the nation as a whole.
Dominique Morisseaus plays include Detroit 67, Paradise Blue, Skeleton Crew,
Sunset Baby, Follow Me to Nellies, Third Grade, Black at Michigan, Socks, Roses Are
Played Out and Love and Nappiness. Morisseau is a recipient of the Edward M.
Kennedy Prize for Drama, two NAACP Image Awards, a commendation from
the Primus Prize by the American Theatre Critics Association, and the winner
of the 2012 Barrie and Bernice Stavis Playwright Award by National Theatre
Conference.

A new-age blend of American history, science fiction, and alternative indie folk
rock, Futurity is a mind-bending, form-defying new musical that follows the
real-life nineteenth century British mathematician Ada Lovelace as she and
a fictional Union soldier, Julian Munro, team up to create a machine that will
change the course of history and the dismal outlook of their centurys struggles.
The play asks broad and probing questions about the nature of the human mind
and the construction of morality, all woven inside fast-rhyming lyrics set to
Americana Roots music.

Evening at the Talk House
Wallace Shawn
A bitingly topical new play from an unconventional playwright.
Wallace Shawn is up to his old tricks again: pricking the conscience of righton, left-leaning theatergoers. No one does that better than this impish, idiosyncratic polymath, who, at seventy-t wo, still comes across as precociousprobably
because we resent him flagging our complacent complicity in all the worlds
ills.Variety
The play stops, but has no ending. It is for us to try to answer its bleak questions, to see what it might mean to be undeluded.The Guardian
Gathering around a table at the Talk House, an old haunt, a group of friends and
theatre artists reunite after ten years to reminisce and catch u p on each others
lives. At first, the conversation is fairly run-of-the-m ill: current TV shows and
where their careers have taken them. Eventually, the discussions tone takes a
turn when they mention supplementing their incomes through the government-
led program to enlist unemployed artists for drone strikes and carrying out vio
lent attacks in foreign lands. As is typical of Shawns plays, the premise at once
amuses and unsettles, forcing the viewer to wonder whether being too idle
makes all of us complicit in the worlds ongoing destruction.
Wallace Shawn is a noted actor and writer. His often politically-charged and controversial plays include The Fever, Aunt Dan and Lemon, Marie and Bruce, and The
Designated Mourner. With Andr Gregory, he co-w rote My Dinner with Andr, in
which he also starred. He adapted the classic Ibsen play A Master Builder for film.

Molire, or The Cabal of Hypocrites

Two Plays by Mikhail Bulgakov
Translated by Richard Nelson, Richard Pevear,

New translations of two poignant and controversial plays
by Russian writer Mikhail Bulgakov.
Pevear and Volokhonsky are at once scrupulous translators and vivid stylists
of English.The New Yorker
From the acclaimed Russian author and playwright Mikhail Bulgakov, Molire,
or The Cabal of Hypocrites and Don Quixote are given fresh new translations
by preeminent Russian translators Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky,
along with prominent playwright Richard Nelson. Best known for his novel
The Master and Margarita, Bulgakov had a knack for political allegory and
proved it time and again in his numerous writings. Both works in this one-of-
a-k ind book were contentious in their time, written as allegories of the early
twentieth-century Russian agenda, remarking especially on Stalins harsh regime. Charged with cultural subtext and controversial intrigue, both plays are
revealed in a new light in this exceptional new volume.

Getting Off
Lee Breuer on Performance
Lee Breuer with Stephen Nunns

A revelatory new examination from one of
theaters most revered avant-garde artists.
Since the nineteen-sixties and seventies, New Yorks experimental-theatre scene

has toned down its wild-man character, but Lee Breuer is the grand old man of the
movement.The New Yorker
Since he first arrived on the New York art/theatre/performance scene in 1970,
Lee Breuer has been at the forefront of the American theatrical avant-garde, creating challenging works both independently and with Mabou Mines (the company
he co-founded with JoAnne Akalaitis), Philip Glass, Ruth Maleczech, and David
Warrilow. Breuers work as a director has included celebrated stagings of Samuel
Beckett, radical readings of classics including The Gospel at Colonus on Broadway
in 1988, a gender-bending adaptation of King Lear in 1990, and his revolutionary
reinterpretation of Ibsen with Mabou Mines Dollhouse.
Theatre historian and journalist Stephen Nunns has assembled a unique look
into one of American theatres most singular creative minds. Using interviews and
excerpts from Breuers writings, with added historical commentary, the thrilling
result is equal parts autobiography, artistic manifesto, and critical exploration.
Beautifully illustrated with archival photographs, drawings, and sketches, this is a
one-of-a-kind portrait of the artist and theatrical activist at work.
Lee Breuer is a writer, director, poet, playwright, adapter, lyricist, and filmmaker engaged in a lifelong procession of incendiary experimental theatre projects across Europe, Asia, Africa, and North and South America. He has received
numerous awards and fellowships and has been named Chevalier Ordre des Arts
et des Lettres by the French Minister of Culture.
Stephen Nunns is an associate professor at Towson University. He is the cofounder of the Baltimore-based theatre company Acme Corporation. His writing has appeared in The New York Times, Village Voice, American Theatre magazine,
and other publications. He is a former artistic associate of Mabou Mines.

TOTAL CHAOS
The Story of the Stooges As Told By Iggy Pop
Edited by Jeff Gold and Jon Savage

Essays by Johan Kugelburg, Ben Blackwell,
Joan Jett, and Johnny Marr
The first book telling Iggy Pops story of The Stooges in
his own words. Features a treasure-trove of unseen photographs.
Iggy Pop is my total idol.Kurt Cobain

The Stooges also carry a strong element of sickness in their music, a crazed quaking uncertainty and errant foolishness that effectively mirrors the absurdity and
desperation of the times, but I believe that they also carry a strong element of cure,
of post-derangement sanity. And I also believe that their music is as important
as the product of any rock group working today.L ester Bangs, Creem (1970)
[The Stooges] Fun House is one of the greatest rock & roll records of all time and
as great as they were, the Stones never went so deep, the Beatles never sounded
so alive, and anyone would have a hard time matching Iggy Pops ferocity as a
vocalist.Scott Seward, The Rolling Stone Album Guide (2004)
TOTAL CHAOS is the first book telling Iggy Pops story of The Stooges in his
own words. Grammy-winning editor and avid music historian Jeff Gold spent
two days at the rock legends home sharing pictures and memorabilia from his
collection. Featuring a trove of unseen photographs, TOTAL CHAOS shows and
tells, with the help of best-selling author Jon Savage, the story of the Stooges from
those tell-a ll interviews.
Iggy Pop is a musician and actor. He is the vocalist, and last remaining original
member of the Stooges, a band Rolling Stone lists in their one hundred greatest
artists of all time. The Stooges were first active 19671975, reunited in 2003, and
in 2010 were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Inhabited
Charlie Quimby
A realtors boomandbust town needs a boost and theres only one

barrier to overcomethe people shes supposed to help.
A thoroughly enjoyable novel that masterfully takes the reader on an emotionally rewarding exploration of home and the power the concept has on the human
psyche.Jonathan Odell, author of Miss Hazel and the Rosa Parks League
A dramatic, honest, humane portrait of a Colorado city in the throes of great
change and great choice. Inhabited is a vivid, compelling story delivered with
twenty-first century true grit.Alyson Hagy, author of Boleto
Meg Mogrin sells pricey houses, belongs to the mayors inner circle, and knows
more than shes letting on about her sisters death. Isaac Samson lives in a tent
and believes Thomas Edison invented the Reagan presidency. When their town
attracts a game-changing development, Isaac is displaced by the towns crackdown on vagrancy. As Isaac struggles to regain stability, Meg contends with conflicting roles of assisting the developer while serving on the homeless coalition.
Isaacs quest to return a lost artifact soon intrudes into Megs tidy world, digging
up a part of her past shed rather remained buried.
Charlie Quimbys writing life has always crossed divides: a playwright turned
critic; a protest songwriter who worked for a defense contractor; a blogger exploring taxpaying and homelessness. Owner of a marketing firm, he wrote award-
winning words for others in Harvard Business Review, Financial World magazine,
and the NFL Hall of Fame. Naturally, he splits time between Minneapolis and his
native western Colorado.

The Gloaming
Melanie Finn
Shortlisted for the Guardians Not the Booker Prize, The Gloaming
is an adventurous, haunting novel of guilt, atonement, and hope.
Intense, impressive.The Guardian

I rarely get as invested in the outcome of a novel as I did reading The Gloaming,
but the empathies that Finn evokes in this powerful and unpredictable book
are not casual; these traumas could be our own. [Finns] prose is hypnotic and
knife-precise and at times so beautiful its unnerving. I didnt read this book
so much as I experienced it and it will haunt me for a very, very long time.
Jill Alexander Essbaum, New York Times bestselling author of Hausfrau
Pilgrims husband left her for another woman, stranding her in a Swiss town
where she is involved in an accident that leaves three children dead. Cleared of
responsibility though overcome with guilt, she absconds to Africa, befriending
a series of locals, each with their own tragic past.
Mysteriously, the remains of an albino appear, the sign of a curse placed by
a witch doctor spooking everyone, though its intended recipient is uncertain.
Pilgrim volunteers to rid the town of the box and its contents, though wherever
she goes, she cant shake the feeling that shes being followed.
Melanie Finn was born and raised in Kenya until age eleven, when she moved
with her family to Connecticut. She is the author of the novel Away From You and
wrote DisneyNatures beautiful, haunting flamingo epic The Crimson Wing, which
was directed by her husband, filmmaker Matt Aeberhard. During the filming,
Finn established The Natron Healthcare Project. She now lives in Vermont with
Aeberhard and their twin daughters.

What Mohr enduredthree strokes in his thirties and heart surgery, and thats

of his years of substance abuse and culpability in his nonfiction debut. Employing
the characterization and chimerical prose for which he has been lauded, Mohr

marriage, parenthood, heart surgery, and his everyday struggle against relapse.
Joshua Mohr is the author of Some Things that Meant the World to Me, one of
Oprah Magazines Top 10 reads of 2009 and a San Francisco Chronicle bestseller; Termite Parade, an Editors Choice pick at the New York Times Book
Review; Damascus, called Beat-poet cool by the New York Times; and, most recently, Fight Song and All This Life. He recently moved with his family to Seattle,
Washington.

Seeing People Off
Jana Be
nov
Winner of the EU Prize for Literature, Seeing People Off is the

English-language debut of a dazzling contemporary voice.
Winner of the European Union Prize for Literature

One of the most important works of new Slovak prose.SME
Benovs short, fast novels are a revolution against normality. Unlike so many
others, her novels not only claim to be a revolution but actually achieve this feat
through their minimalist narratives that go against all conventions; in fact, Benov
manages to subtly and intelligently poke fun at conventional categorizations.
Austrian Broadcasting Corporation, ORF
There is a liveliness and effervescence to Jana Benovs prose that is magnetic.
Whether addressing the loneliness of relationships or the effectiveness of rat
poison, her voice and observations call to mind the verve and sophistication of
Renata Adler or Rosalyn Drexler, while remaining utterly singular.
Seeing People Off follows Elza and Ian, a young couple living in a humongous
apartment complex outside Bratislava where the walls play music and talk, and
time is immaterial.
Drawing on her memories, everyday interactions, observations of post-
socialist realities, and Elzas attraction to actor Kalisto Tanzi, Seeing People Off
is a kaleidoscopic, poetic, and deeply funny portrait of a relationship.
Jana Benov is one of the most acclaimed Slovakian writers, and winner of the
European Union Prize for Literature. She writes poetry and fiction, and is the
author of the novels Seeing People Off, Get Off! Get Off!, Parker, and Honeymoon
(forthcoming from Two Dollar Radio), as well as three collections of poems.
Though her work has been widely translated throughout Europe, Seeing People Off
is her English-language debut.

With Critical Essays by Marc Sobel
Marc Sobel and Alan Moore

Collection and analysis of Alan Moores
difficult-to-find short comics stories.
A collection of Alan Moores (Watchmen, From Hell) difficult-to-fi nd comics short

self-critiques of his older work, this wide-ranging collection is an essential look
at Moores illuminating short stories. Each story is drawn by some of the best
artists in comics from mainstream mavericks like Steven Bissette (Swamp Thing,
Tyrant), Rick Veitch (Swamp Thing, Bratpack), and John Totleben (Miracleman)
to underground iconoclasts like Mark Beyer (RAW) and Peter Bagge (Hate,
Woman Rebel: The Margaret Sanger Story). Comic book critic Marc Sobel provides insightful commentary and context for each of the stories.
Marc Sobel is the co-editor of The Love and Rockets Companion, published by
Fantagraphics Books. He is also the author of the forthcoming Love and Rockets
Reader, also from Fantagraphics. He is a freelance journalist and scholar in the
field of comic book studies.
Alan Moore is an English writer primarily known for his work in comic books,
including Watchmen, V for Vendetta, and From Hell (and many others). Frequently described as the best graphic novel writer in history, and he has been
called one of the most important British writers of the last fifty years.

An inside look at meal culture in prisons, from the quality
of the food to the stories surrounding the preparation of it.

Meals are perhaps the most important aspect of prison life. They keep inmates
alive, both physically and emotionally, as mess halls and common areas provide
a level of social interaction in an otherwise lonely situation. Albert Prodigy
Johnson served three and a half years in prison, and during that time his focus
was on his healtha n almost impossible feat behind bars, where many inmates
often enter the prison system healthy, but leave with diabetes and hypertension.
Commissary Kitchen provides a deeper perspective of what its like to consume
meals in prison. With recipes, Prodigy and co-w riter Kathy Iandoli also tell vari
ous anecdotes about situations in prison involving food. Meal prep in prison is
very limited, so while this work appeals to anyone who has served time or is curious about prison life, it also speaks to those who prepare food with limited access
to various cooking luxuries (such as college students in dorms). While the work
is informational, above all it humanizes the prison experience in a way that has
never been done before.
Albert Prodigy Johnson is a multi-platinum recording artist and member of
the legendary hip-hop duo Mobb Deep. In 2006, Prodigy was arrested for gun
possession and served a three-year prison term. In 2011, he released his first
memoir, the critically-acclaimed My Infamous Life. Since then, Prodigy has continued to release both solo projects and albums through Mobb Deep, touring
worldwide. When he isnt touring, Prodigy is traveling the United States, lecturing at venues like MIT about the prison system and offering insight on changing
the quality of inmates lives.
Kathy Iandoli is a critically-acclaimed journalist and author. Her work has appeared in publications such as Pitchfork, VICE, Maxim, Cosmopolitan, the Village
Voice, Rolling Stone, Billboard, and many others. She is also a professor of Music
Business at New Jersey City University in Jersey City, New Jersey.

Excerpt from Commissary Kitchen: Fried Chicken n Thighs
Correction officers were corrupt as shit. There was a whole prostitution ring happening in the prison. I guess you could say the inmates were the pimps and the COs were the hookers. A lot of the
inmates in therethey got game. Theyre from the hood, theyll
be talking that shit and the girls that work there, theyre from
the hood too (most of them). So theyll be feeling the inmates.
Not all of them were into that prostitution shit. Some would just
have sex with the inmates for free. But the ones who were down
to prostitute had a whole system to it. The way they got paid
was the inmates would have their family send money through
Western Union. Then the inmates would pay the COs and theyd
get busy in there. And theyll be having sex everywhere in the
jail, in all kinds of places. Its a power thing though for the inmates, especially when you feel like you have no power in prison.
If you find one of them female prison guards who was down to
fuck, you could get whatever you want from her after that. Cause
theyll sneak all kinds of shit over to you then: extra food, ciga
rettes, whatever. At least until they got caught. When I was in
there, somebody had just gotten locked up. One of the officers
got locked up for having sex with an inmate in the shower, and
the reason they got caught is because the other inmate snitched.
Fucked up, right?
I had a favorite CO, but I aint fuck her. Her name was Officer
Butz. Imagine that? Butz. And her ass was real nice too. She was
cute. As far as I knew, Butz wasnt about sex with inmates, especially not for money. She was good people. But she was a little
flirt and shit. She would call me in the bubble and show me pictures on her phone of her and her girls at the beach in bikinis and
shit. I was like okay nice, Butz.
One night Butz called me out to the bubble. Its a bulletproof
glass bubble, where the CO sits. And then outside of that is a hallway, and then its two dorms on each side of the hall. So the CO
is never in the dorm, and wed be in there dolo. So when you need
help, the CO is way out there. Rikers is dangerous because of that
alone. One night after chow, Butz called me out to the bubble
over the microphone. I come out, and she buzzed the door to the
bubble. I walk to the open doorway, and shes like, Come inside. She reaches in her pocket and Im like, What the fuck?
In there, she had two pieces of fried chicken wrapped in brown
paper towels from the bathroom. She was like, Here, eat up
boy. I only had one piece of chicken from chow that night
everybody always only got one piece. Theyd put it in the little
window for you and walk away. So here come Butz with two more
pieces. I was like, Oh shit, good looking. Word. She hooked me
up. I shouldve fucked her for that alone because I was hungry as
shit. I didnt, though. Pussy wasnt worth stretching my sentence
or getting Butz in trouble. So I ate the two pieces of chicken and
walked out.

The State Vs. Albert Prodigy Johnson
Albert Prodigy Johnson with Kathy Iandoli
The follow-up to Prodigys critically acclaimed

My Infamous Life, detailing the legal squabbles and hurdles
endured following his prison sentence.
In 2011, famed rapper Albert Prodigy Johnson released his memoir My

Infamous Life: his journey from his time as a member of legendary rap duo
Mobb Deep to his three-and-a-half year prison sentence. However, the real story
began once he was released. As discussed in his previous memoir, the NYPD
hip-hop task force played a major role in Prodigys arrest. Their presence remained, even following his time served. Prodigy didnt help the cause, finding himself in a series of situations that were partly avoidable, partly inevitable.
They say hindsight is twenty-twenty and The State Vs. Albert Prodigy Johnson
is full of retrospective tales. Fans of Prodigys rap legacy will enjoy the stories
his follow-up memoir details, but true crime fans unfamiliar with his music will
also be intrigued by what Prodigy has in store in his nonstop ride through life
in the fast lane.

Mary Ruefle
A new collection of exciting and vivacious prose poems, essays,
and more in-between from lauded poet Mary Ruefle.

On the Seawall
Author of Madness, Rack, and Honey (One of the wisest books Ive read in years,
according to the New York Times) and Trances of the Blast, Mary Ruefle continues
to be one of the most dazzling poets in America. My Private Property, comprised
of short prose pieces, is a brilliant and charming display of her humor, deep imagi
nation, mindfulness, and play.
Personalia
When I was young, a fortune-teller told me that an old woman who wanted to die
had accidentally become lodged in my body. Slowly, over time, and taking great care
in following esoteric instructions, including lavender baths and the ritual burial of
keys in the backyard, I rid myself of her presence. Now I am an old woman who wants
to die and lodged inside me is a young woman dying to live; I work on her.
Mary Ruefle is the author of Trances of the Blast; Madness, Rack, and Honey:
Collected Lectures, a finalist for the 2013 National Book Critics Circle Award in
criticism; and Selected Poems, winner of the William Carlos Williams Award. She

comic book, Go Home and Go to Bed!; she is also an erasure artist whose treat
ments of nineteenth-century texts have been exhibited in museums and galleries
as well as published in the book A Little White Shadow. Ruefle is the recipient of
numerous honors, including an Award in Literature from the American Academy
of Arts and Letters, a Guggenheim fellowship, a National Endowment for the
Arts fellowship, and a Whiting Award. She lives in Bennington, Vermont, and

Renee Gladman
Thinking collapses and remerges in this metafictional collection

of essays following a writer and artist at work.
Renee Gladman has always struck me as being a dreamershe writes that way
and the dreaming seems to construct the architecture of the world unfolding
before our eyes.Eileen Myles
A collection of linked essays concerned with the life and mind of the writer by
one of the most original voices in contemporary literature. Each essay takes a day
as its point of inquiry, observing the body as it moves through time, architecture,
and space, gradually demanding a new logic and level of consciousness from the
narrator and reader.

Excerpts in: Open Letter, PEN America
I was a line in a book, then a line in another book, and performing small acts in
between: I sat at intervals on the toilet, I slept sporadically, I ate kale and fish food,
and called myself Renee for a time. Nobody knew who I was at the grocery store,
but going there was my big event. I knew the books of these people; I knew these people
and I didnt change their names, but when they appeared in my books it wasnt really
their stories I was telling, so they didnt need my protection and I could go Danielle,
Danielle all day.
Born in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1971, Renee Gladman studied philosophy at Vassar
College and poetics at New College of California. She is the author of eight works
of prose, including the Ravicka novels Event Factory, The Ravickians, and Ana
Patova Crosses a Bridge, as well as a book of poetry, A Picture-Feeling. Her most
recent work of fiction is Morelia, a short novel forthcoming in 2016. A long
time publisher and bookmaker, her projects include Clamour (19961999), the
Leroy Chapbook series (19992003), and Leon Works (since 2005).

A collection of candid, surreal, and wickedly funny poems and prose.
Thom Gunn, Barbara Guest, Robert Creeley, Philip Lamantia, all ghosts now,

A power ballad was a hair metal bands voyage into the softer side of rock, com
promising to the integrity of the genre, but genuine and trailblazing. So too is
Garrett Capless Power Ballads. His poems and prose pieces are bizarre and
hilarious, in which Bob Dylan and David Bowie sit alongside the French surreal
ists, with the occasional turn into heartfelt romanticism.

Opulent and lush poems inspired by Japanese,

Chinese, and Elizabethan poets.
Whatevers smuggled into these poemsthe Petronas Towers, Afghanistan

scriptive writing: the sweet ease of writings intangibility, its virtual tease.
Adam Fitzgerald, The American Reader
Lush, surreal, cinematic, and imagistically precise, Geoffrey Nutter paints the
world into his fifth collection of poems. His poems display a consciousness in
awe of all matter, be it organic, mechanical, industrial, ornithological, or sartorial.
Iridescent and sparkling, his poems are ornate wonders of language, each their
own contained ecosystem and civilization.
From A Small Victorian Object:
Whats that in the mud where the tide is going out?
Buttons; bottle caps; small bits of Styrofoam
that look like shells or coral; a few dead crabs;

Marvin Bell and Christopher Merrill
A lively correspondence embodying a wide range of experiences

and imagination between two of our legendary poets.
Prose was always meant for colloquy, risk, and intimacy. With these rich and
conversant prose poems, Marvin Bell and Christopher Merrill return spoken
language to sportsometimes competitive, but often cooperative, exploratory,

The best conversationalists intuit and respond to unspoken questions and interstitial meanings, sidelong concerns and secret subjects. They also know how
to listen to anothers story and hear the line or inflection that calls forth their
own tale in a way that enlarges, well, everything. Marvin Bell and Christopher
Merrills stunning epistolary paragraphs illustrate the inner workings of just
such an intimate, agile, and sustained conversation. Th is collaborative, high
wire act offers up profound truths in exactly the way the most exciting poems
take shapeby leaps of imagination and complete trust in the power of association to bring up riches, songs, and wisdom from the depths.Lia Purpura

great poet, long exiled from his native land, turning memory into verse, recovering from the past everything that counts: love and friendship and the landscapes

Mindfully Facing Disease and Death
Compassionate Advice from Early Buddhist Texts
Bhikkhu Ana
layo
A practical guide for those facing disease and death,

providing access to the ageless wisdom of the Buddhas teaching.
Praise for Bhikkhu Anlayo:

Serious meditation students will benefit tremendously from the clarity of under
standing that Venerable Anlayos efforts have achieved.S haron Salzberg,
author of Real Happiness
This book provides a practical guide for those facing disease and death by helping
them to access the ageless wisdom of the Buddhas teaching.
Disease and death are undeniably integral parts of human life. Yet when they
manifest we are easily caught unprepared. To prepare for these, we need to learn
how to skillfully face illness and passing away. A source of practical wisdom can
be found in the early discourses that record the teachings given by the Buddha
and his disciples.
Bhikkhu Anlayos chief aim is to provide a collection of passages taken
from the Buddhas early discourses that provide guidance for facing disease and
death. He focuses on the theme of compassion, and is concerned with anukampa:
compassion as the underlying motivation in altruistic action.
Anlayo uses his own translations from the Chinese originals, presented here
for the first time. Taken together with his commentary, we gain a first-hand im
pression of what early Buddhism had to say about disease and death.
Bhikkhu Anlayo is a professor of Buddhist studies at the Sri Lanka International
Academy in Pallekele. He teaches at the Center for Buddhist Studies of the
University of Hamburg and researches at the Dharma Drum Buddhist College
in Taiwan.

Mindful Emotion
A Short Course in Kindness
Paramabandhu Groves and Jed Shamel
A practical course in cultivating kindness to complement

and augment other mindfulness-based approaches.
This book is all about kindness behavior training (KBT). The authors have
drawn on their clinical experience as well as Buddhism to develop a practical
course in cultivating kindness, intended to complement and augment other
mindfulness-based approaches. Amid the recent explosion of secular mindful
ness, their aim is to reemphasize the importance of the heart, introducing the
reader to a variety of ways of approaching kindness-based meditation, as well as
to how to put kindness into practice in daily life.
A range of psychological theories and areas of research inform the KBT ap
proach, primarily findings from cognitive neuroscience, as well as evolutionary
and positive psychology literatures. It also uses a range of exercises found to be
helpful in Eastern traditions, such as Buddhism. The book will act as a compan
ion, walking the reader through each week of the course.

Selected Poems by Julia Fiedorczuk
Julia Fiedorczuk
Translated by Bill Johnston
Explorations of humans in the natural world using tender, sometimes erotic, always moving language.
Julia Fiedorczuk entangles images and concepts from science (astronomy,
physics, and biology) with deeply personal explorations of relationships and connectedness in her debut poetry book in English. Nature abounds in these poems,
and Fiedorczuk is, in turn, ever present in that luscious fruit, the world. Her
passionate engagement with the details of the environment and the people in it
makes hers an unforgettable voice in contemporary ecopoetics, one that argues
for empathy and alertness. She has published five volumes of poetry, three of
fiction, and three books on ecocriticism, and won several Polish literary awards.

Ya Hsien
Translated by John Balcom
A core work from the second wave of Chinese modernism
by an outstanding Taiwanese poet.
A seminal work from the second wave of Chinese modernism.

So great is Ya Hsiens influence on younger generations of Taiwanese and
Chinese writers that he is sometimes referred to simply as The Poet. Yet he
never wrote a second book after Abyss appeared in an expanded edition in 1971.
This single books variety and virtuosity have made it a modern classic and the
poet something of a legend. A new documentary, Ya Hsien: A Life that Sings,
was nominated for Best Documentary at the 2015 Taipei Film Festival.

deftly capturing the critical spirit of the times. The sixty poems are divided into
seven sections that present differing styles and themes, including Wartime,
Songs without Music, and Wild Water Chestnuts.
The pen name Ya Hsien (his given name is Wang Ching-L in) means mute
string. Ya Hsien lives in Vancouver, British Columbia.

what a relief
a laugh

this morning
see everything goes anywhere
that any other place
is also
there.
Believe me

it is pure joy
to overshoot the moon
and find you
out there
too.
