Vanishing Perspective
Alexis Beauclair
Nothing stretches or bends, there is no movement, no animation, no life in static

images. But by looking at these pared-down and simple pictures in sequence,
you catch glimpses that would indicate otherwisea nd that indication is magi
cal. Before your eyes, these abstract simple lines, geometric shapes, and grids
come to life. Vanishing Perspective is a comic book in which the reader is light
itself.
Alexis Beauclair lives in France. His acclaimed illustrations and comics have

Rebellious Mourning
The Collective Work of Grief
Edited by Cindy Milstein
Grief can be a catalyst for resistance and transformation.
This intimate, moving, and timely collection of essays points the way to a world in
which the burden of grief is shared, and pain is reconfigured into a powerful force
for social change and collective healing.A stra Taylor, author of The Peoples
Platform
A primary message here is that from tears comes the resolve for the struggle
ahead.Ron Jacobs, author of Daydream Sunset
Rebellious Mourning uncovers the destruction of life that capitalist development
leaves in its trail. But it is also witness to the power of grief as a catalyst to collec-
tive resistance.Silvia Federici, author of Caliban and the Witch
We can bear almost anything when it is worked through collectively. Grief is

generally thought of as something personal and insular, but when we publicly
share loss and pain, we lessen the power of the forces that debilitate us, while at FAMILY & RELATIONSHIPS / SOCIAL SCIENCE
the same time building the humane social practices that alleviate suffering and September

Between the Bullet and the Lie
Essays on Orwell
Kristian Williams
Foreword by David Goodway
A timely appreciation of George Orwells thought

and the influence it still has today.
Rather than provide literary criticism or biography, Kristian Williams is most

concerned in this felicitous collection to derive George Orwells method
the process he used to translate personal experiences and worldly explora-
tions into democratic anti-capitalist principles, and convey them to broad audi-
ences in an irresistible fashion.A ndrew Cornell, author of Unruly Equality:
U.S. Anarchism in the Twentieth Century
Old debates about democracy vs. socialism vs. fascism are back. Missing from
todays versions are the voices of moral clarity, those that challenge us to be our
best selves in difficult times. Kristian Williams has mined the intellect of a man
who, sixty-seven years after his death, still has much to offer readers. Between the
Bullet and the Lie highlights the relationship George Orwell saw between aes-
thetics, ethics, and politics; the difference between honesty and integrity; the
POLITICAL SCIENCE corruption of language; the importance of observation and evidence; and the
November

Fascism Today
What It Is and How to End It
Shane Burley
A detailed map of the far right and a game plan

for building the mass movement that will stop it.
We can no longer ignore the fact that fascism is on the rise in the United States.
What was once a fringe movement has been gaining cultural acceptance and po-
litical power for years. Rebranding itself as alt-r ight and riding the waves of
both Donald Trumps hate-fueled populism and the anxiety of an abandoned
working class, they have created a social force that has the ability to win elections
and inspire racist street violence in equal measure.
Fascism Today looks at the changing world of the far right in Donald Trumps
America. Examining the modern fascist movements various strains, Shane
Burley has written an accessible primer about what its adherents believe, how
they organize, and what future they have in the United States. The ascension of
Trump has introduced a whole new vocabulary into our political lexiconwhite
nationalism, race realism, Identitarianism, and a slew of others. Burley breaks it

Just as importantly, Fascism Today shows how they can be fought and beaten.
It highlights groups that have successfully opposed these twisted forces and out-
lines the elements needed to build powerful mass movements to confront the
institutionalization of fascist ideas, protect marginalized communities, and ulti-
mately stop the fascist threat.

Joyful Militancy
Building Thriving Resistance in Toxic Times
Carla Bergman and Nick Montgomery
Absolutely what we need in these days of spreading gloom.John Holloway,
author of Crack Capitalism
Rigid radicalism is the congealed and debilitating practices that suck life and
inspiration from the fight for a better world. Joyful Militancy investigates how
fear, self-r ighteousness, and moralism infiltrate and take root within liberation
movements, what to do about them, and ultimately how tenderness and vulnera-
bility can thrive alongside fierce militant commitment.

Samuel Solomon
On one level, Special Subcommittee is an experimental family history of Samuel

Against these subcommittees of repression, he then invents an ardent and com-

One Hundred Years of Leninist Counterrevolution
Edited and introduced by Friends of Aron Baron
On the centenary of the 1917 Russian Revolution, paeans to the conquering

Bolsheviks will be sung. Bloodstained highlights the darker echoes coming from

slaughter and starve their opponents. The defense of this criminal enterprise,
later categorized as actually existing socialism, ends here. No more velvet-

Against Charity
Julie Wark and Daniel Ravents
A demand for justice and rejection of the

philanthrocapitalism of charitable giving.
Charity is not a gift. Gift-g iving implies reciprocity, an ongoing relationship.

When requital is impossible, the act of giving remains outside mutual ties and
charity becomes yet another manifestation of class structure, a sterile one-way
act upholding the status quo.
Vacuuming up all the profits thanks to a weak labor movement, lower taxes,
and tax havens (thanks, lobbyists and loathsome politicians!), the global elite
then turn around and remake the world in their own image with charitable do-
nations that speak more of mean-spiritedness than generosity. Postmodern ver-
sions of nineteenth-century charity aim to keep wealth and power in a few hands,
mocking our desire for greater income equality.
Daniel Ravents and Julie Wark argue for an unconditional universal basic
income above the poverty line and paid for by progressive taxation to both eradi
cate poverty and empower recipientst he result being the human right of mate-
rial existence. The burning issue is not charity but justice.

Knucklehead
Adam Smyer
A fierce, intelligent, and often hilarious novel about a young

black attorney who struggles to control his violent impulses.
In Knucklehead, we meet Marcus Hayes, a brilliant African American attorney

who struggles with his impulse to deal with bullies and other everyday annoy-
ances in a violent manner. When he unexpectedly becomes involved with the
kind, intelligent Amalia Stewart, her love and acceptance pacifies his demons.
But when he loses her, his rage returns with a vengeance, and this time Marcus
doesnt want to contain it. He soon finds himself in a downward spiral that brings
him dangerously close to doing something truly heinous, and his path to redemp-
tion is dependent upon him facing the demons of his past and present.
Set amid the racial tensions of the 1990s, Knucklehead is hard-h itting, hilari
ous, and frank. The situations Marcus navigates are as relevant today as they
were twenty years ago, especially as we consider violence and racial injustices
against African American men and women taking place every day in America,
and the long-lasting effects this violence has on the black community.

Written with passion and vision and with a clear, unflinching eye, Havana
Lunar breaks new ground. In it the Cuban underworld of chulos and jine-

Mouths Dont Speak
Katia D. Ulysse
A Haitian immigrant in the United States tries to stay emotionally

afloat after the 2010 Haitian earthquake rips her family apart.
A phenomenal writer.Edwidge Danticat, author of Claire of the Sea Light

This beautiful book is for anyone who carries the pain of loss, the heartbreak of

ways. Consider it required reading for humans, and be brought back to life.
A njanette Delgado, author of The Clairvoyant of Calle Ocho
No one was prepared for the massive earthquake that struck Haiti in 2010, tak-
ing over a quarter-million lives, and leaving millions more homeless. Three thou-
sand miles away, Jacqueline Florestant mourns the death of her parents, while her
husband, a former US Marine and combat veteran, cares for their three-year-old
daughter as he fights his own battles with acute PTSD.
Horrified and guilt-r idden, Jacqueline returns to Haiti in search of the pro-

Calling a Wolf a Wolf
Kaveh Akbar
Addiction. Recovery. Repeat. Kaveh Akbar blazes the poetry scene

with this introspective, powerful, and passionate debut.
The struggle from late youth on, with and without God, agony, narcotics and
love is a torment rarely recorded with such sustained eloquence and passion as
you will find in this collection.Fanny Howe
This highly-a nticipated debut boldly confronts addiction and courses the strenu-
ous path of recovery, beginning in the wilds of the mind. Poems confront craving,
control, the constant battle of alcoholism and sobriety, and the questioning of the
self and its instincts within the context of this never-ending fight.

Were On: A June Jordan Reader
Edited by Christoph Keller and Jan Heller Levi
Introduction by Rachel Eliza Griffiths
Toni Morrison affirms Jordans work as tireless activism

coupled with and fueled by flawless art.
June Jordan was not the blacksmiths daughter. June Jordan was the black-
smith. . . . She never waited around, not for anyones permission, to write or act or
be. . . . For this book to have its birth now, in the lopsided moment when we need
it most, is no chance occurrence. This great woman blacksmith is still sweetly
hammering us on.Nikky Finney
Poet, activist, and essayist June Jordan is a prolific, significant American writer
who pushed the limits of political vision and moral witness, traversing a career
of over forty years. With poetry, prose, letters, and more, this reader is a key re-
source for understanding the scope, complexity, and novelty of this pioneering
Black American writer.

Some Say the Lark is a piercing meditation, rooted in loss and longing, and mani

Jennifer Changs poems narrate grief and loss, and intertwines them with hope
for a fresh start in the midst of new beginnings. With topics such as frustration
with our social and natural world, these poems openly question the self, place,
and how private experiences like motherhood and sorrow necessitate a deeper

The craft is impeccable, the inner vision revelatory.
These are wonderful, witty, wise poems in love with language and singing the

A dreamy voice turns dark and gritty as Ellen Dor Watson interrogates per-

Dutch Feast
Emily Wight
A modern take on Dutch cuisine, with an emphasis on

the ways that simple meals bring joy and comfort.
In the same way that British, Scandinavian, and German food have undergone
a renaissance in recent years, writer and blogger Emily Wight is convinced that
Dutch cuisine is going to be the next big thing. Her new cookbook reimagines
traditional Dutch cooking, which has always been known for its thriftiness and
practicality, with an emphasis on the ways that simple meals bring joy and com-
fort to the people who share them.
Influenced by its colonial history, with bold flavors from places like Indonesia
and the West Indies, and by its proximity to its European neighbors, Dutch
cooking is surprisingly diverse, noted for its celebration of the ritual of the meal
as much as the meal itself. From gezellig to borrels, and gado gado to uitsmijter,
Dutch Feast delivers unconventional (but familiar) and economical (but indul-
gent) recipes, and gives you a new excuse to invite everyone over for cold gin and

Marcelino Truong
Translated by David Homel
In this sequel to the acclaimed Such a Lovely Little War,

the author recounts growing up Vietnamese in swinging London
as the Vietnam war intensifies.
Marcelino Truongs first book about the early years of the Vietnam war, the
graphic memoir Such a Lovely Little War (2016), received starred reviews in
Publishers Weekly and Kirkus Reviews and was named one the seasons best
graphic novels by the New York Times. In this sequel, young Marcelino and his
family move from Saigon to London in order to escape the war following the as-
sassination of South Vietnamese President Diem, for whom Marcelinos diplomat
father was a personal interpreter.
In London, his father struggles to build a new life for his children and his
wife, whose bipolar spells are becoming increasingly violent. But for Marco and

Body Music
Julie Maroh
Translated by David Homel
From the author of Blue Is the Warmest Color: a beautiful,

bittersweet graphic novel on the complexities of love.
Julie Marohs first book, Blue Is the Warmest Color, was a graphic novel phenome
non; it was a New York Times bestseller and the controversial film adaptation by
French director Abdellatif Kechiche won the Palme dOr at the Cannes Film
Festival in 2013. Marohs latest book, Body Music, marks her return to the kind
of soft, warm palette and impressionistic sensibility that made her debut book so
sensational.
Set in the languid, European-like neighborhoods of Montreal, Body Music is
a beautiful and moving meditation on love and desire as expressed in their many
different formsbetween women, men, and gender non-conformists alike, all
varying in age and race. In twenty separate vignettes, Maroh explores the drama
inherent in relationships at different stages: the electricity of initial attraction, the
elation of falling in love, the trauma of breaking up, the sweet comfort of a long-
standing romance. November

What I Think Happened
An Underresearched History of the Western World
Evany Rosen
A wickedly funny femmoir in which the author retells historical events

and recasts historical personalities from her own feminist perspective.
What I Think Happened, the debut book by comedian Evany Rosen, is really two
books: a savvy, no-holds-barred romp through the history of the western world,
and a personal femmoir by a self-described failed academic who recasts his-
toriography from a feminist perspectivea lbeit an underqualified and over
confident one.
In these wide-r anging comic essays, Rosen explores numerous historical
events and personalities that have had a personal impact on her as she attempts to
understand why theyve been the object of such fascination, from her unnatural
obsession with Napoleon, to her misguided understanding of the Royal Family,
to her intrigue over Americas dumpiest presidents. Rosens approach to history
is to make it personal, which any good historian will tell you is exactly what not
to do; but in so doing, and with whimsy and irreverence, she rescues history from
the dusty confines of intellectually aggressive men and makes it fun again.

Oracle Bone
Lydia Kwa
A historical magic-realist novel set in seventh century China featuring

ghosts, martial arts, and a transformative, much-sought oracle bone.
Life in seventh-century China teems with magic, fox spirits, and demons; there
is a fervent belief that the extraordinary resides within the lives of both com-
moners and royalty. During the years when the empress Wu Zhao is gaining as-
cendancy in the Tang court, her evil-m inded lover Xie becomes obsessed with
finding and possessing the oracle bone, a magical object that will bestow im
mortal powers on him. Standing in his way is Qilan, an eccentric Daoist nun who
rescues an orphaned girl named Ling from being sold into slavery; Qilan takes
her under her wing, promising to train her so she may avenge her parents mur-
ders. In another part of the city, a young monk named Harelip questions his faith
and his attraction to other men as he helps the elder monk Xuanzang to complete
his translation of the Heart Sutra, the sacred Buddhist scripture. Meanwhile, as
the mysteries and powers of the missing oracle bone are revealed, it remains to
be seen whether Qilan will be able to stop Xie from gaining possession of the

Bookshops
A Cultural History
Jorge Carrin
Translated from the Spanish by Peter Bush
Love letter, travel-memoir, manifestoBookshops is a diverting cultural

history of bookstores as spaces of creative energy and social change.
Bookshops is the best kind of biblio-mystery, in which a cultivated and civilised

detective guides us through the labyrinth of the worlds stores, stopping to talk
for a while, before plunging off on the next fascinating diversion. Jorge Carrin
brings page-t urning excitement to the extended essay form.Iain Sinclair
Jorge Carrin collects bookshops: from Gotham Book Mart and the Strand
Bookstore in New York City to City Lights Bookshop and Green Apple Books
in San Francisco and all the bright spots in between (Prairie Lights, Tattered
Cover, and countless others). In this thought-provoking, vivid, and entertaining
essay, Carrin meditates on the importance of the bookshop as a cultural and in-
tellectual space. Filled with anecdotes from the histories of some of the famous
(and not-so-famous) shops he visits on his travels, thoughtful considerations of
the challenges faced by bookstores, and fascinating digressions on their political
LITERARY CRITICISM and social impact, Bookshops is both a manifesto and a love letter to these spaces

As with Ondjakis other novelsincluding Bom dis camaradas (2001; Good

Jane Austen
The Bankers Sister
E. J. Clery
An intriguing new insight into the world of Jane Austen

and that of her banker brother, Henry.
When it was announced that Jane Austen would appear on the new 10 note in
2017, the 200th anniversary of her death, there was a flurry of media excitement.
Few noted that a 10 Austen banknote was already in existence, albeit one issued
by her brother. Henry Austen had set up as a banker in 1804, and built up a small
empire of country banks. But Henry went unmentioned, and for good reason
he had gone spectacularly bust in the crash of 1816, the year before Jane died.
Versions of Henry appear throughout her novels, not least in the charming but
unscrupulous Henry Crawford in Mansfield Park, master of the fashionable card
game Speculation. In her last novels, Jane worked through her increasing doubts
about the speculative mindset and the shock caused by the collapse of Henrys
enterprise.
Exploring the close parallels between the speculative political economy of
the late eighteenth century and that of the present day, Jane Austen: The Bankers
Sister counters the stereotype of the spinster tucked away in a Hampshire village, BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY
detached from the great historical changes of her era. Based on wholly new re- October
search, including sensational new evidence of Henrys entanglements in the dis- 6 x 9 | 400 pp

Packed with insight and interesting debate, The Greatest Comeback is both deeply
poignant and extremely topical. David Bolchover has expertly woven one huge,

Bla Guttmann was the first of a breed of globetrotting superstar football

coaches, achieving his greatest successes before Pep Guardiola or Jos Mourinho
were even born.
He was also a Holocaust survivor. In 1944, much of Europe had wanted
Guttmann dead. He hid for months in an attic near Budapest as thousands of
fellow Jews in the neighbourhood were dragged off to be murdered. Later, he es-
caped from a slave labour camp before a planned deportation and almost cer-
tain death. His father, sister, and extended family were murdered.

Post-Truth
How Bullshit Conquered the World
James Ball
2016 marked the dawn of the post-truth era.

This is your guide to our brave new world.
2016 marked the dawn of the post-truth era. The year saw two shock election re-
sults, each of which has the potential to reshape the world: the UKs decision to
leave the EU, and the elevation of Donald Trump to the office of US President.
The campaigns highlighted many of the same issues in their home countries:
social division, anger at the elite, anti-immigration sentiment and morebut,
more than anything, they heralded an unprecedented rise of bullshit.
Sophistry and spin have been part of politics since the dawn of time. But the
modern era sees millions being fed false reports that Hillary Clinton ordered
30,000 guillotines to use on her opponents following her victory, while Trump
claims he never said that about speeches recorded on video.
Post-truth is bigger than fake news and bigger than social media. Its about the
slow rise of a political, media, and online infrastructure that has devalued truth.

A United Ireland
Why Unification is Inevitable And How It Will Come About
Kevin Meagher
Kevin Meagher argues that a reasoned, pragmatic discussion about the most basic
questions regarding Britains relationship with its nearest neighbour is now long
overdue, and questions that have remained unasked, and perhaps unthought,
must now be answered. Indeed, in the light of Brexit and a highly probable second
independence referendum in Scotland, the reunification of Ireland is not a ques-
tion of if, but when and how.

The Corruption of Capitalism
Why Rentiers Thrive and Work Does Not Pay
Guy Standing
Guy Standing reveals the devastating effects of the construction of a global mar-
ket economy. At the heart of the problem is the construction by successive gov-
ernments, working in the interests of elites, of the most unfree market system
ever created. A system in which property, financial, physical, and intellectual, is
controlled by a tiny but enormously powerful rentier class.

Studies, University of London, and is a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences.

The Greek Wall
Nicolas Verdan
Translated by W. Donald Wilson
A severed head is found on the Greek border near a wall planned to stop Middle
Eastern immigrants crossing from Turkey. Intelligence Agent Evangelos wants
the truth about the murder, human trafficking into Greece, and about the cor-
ruption surrounding the walls construction. It is a mystery novel and a politi-
cal thriller but more importantly it evokes the problems of the West incarnated
in Greece: isolationism, fear of immigration, economic collapse, and corruption.
While dark, it is also poetic and paints an indelible portrait of Athens, with its
mixed fragrances of eucalyptus, freshly baked bread, and cigarette smoke.

My House Gathers Desires
Adam McOmber
New Wave Fabulist stories combine artifice, desire, and the uncanny
as a way to challenge our notions of modern life.
Adam McOmbers lush, hallucinatory stories are both familiar and wholly
original. Drawn from the historical record, Biblical lore, fairy tales, science fic-
tion, and nightmares, these offbeat and fantastical works explore gender and
sexuality in their darkest and most beautiful manifestations. In the tradition
of Angela Carter or Kelly Link, My House Gathers Desires is covertly funny and
haunting, seeking fresh ways to consider sexual identity and its relation to history.
In Sodom and Gomorrah, readers encounter a subversive, ecstatic new
version of the Old Testament story. In The Reem, a medieval monks search
for a mythic beast conjures forbidden desire. And in Notes on Inversion, the
German psychiatrist Kraft-Ebbing receives a surreal retort to his clinical de-
scriptions of same-sex desire.
From Sodom and Gomorrah:

For two Olympic athletes, the razors edge between victory

and defeat is easier on the slopes than in the heart.
Corey LaCroix just wants to snowboard, but Olympic medals and world cham-
pionships only carry you so far when your knees ache and youre suddenly an
underdog for the first time in your career. Elise Brandeis doesnt need a train-
ing partner, especially an unorthodox has-been snowboarder with an attitude.
But Elise has already lost a full season to injury, and shes struggling to make the
Olympic ski team. Can teaming up with Corey give her the edge she needs to go
for gold, or will the snowboarders infuriatingly cocky smile and rock hard abs
prove a distraction she simply cant afford? Both champions brace themselves
for the run of a lifetime. Putting their broken bodies on the line, they fight the
competition, the clock, and the frozen terrain for one more chance at glory. But
this time, as they ride the razors edge between victory and defeat, the stakes are
steeper than any mountain they will ever face when legacies and hearts collide.

Racialized Trauma and the Pathway
to Mending Our Hearts and Bodies
Resmaa Menakem, MSW, LICSW
Racism and trauma are addressed as the author examines white

supremacy in America from the perspective of body-centered psychology.
The body is where our instincts reside and where we fight, flee, or freeze, and
it endures the trauma inflicted by the ills that plague society. In this ground-
breaking work, therapist Resmaa Menakem examines the damage caused by
racism in America from the perspective of body-centered psychology. He ar-
gues this destruction will continue until Americans learn to heal the genera-
tional anguish of white supremacy, which is deeply embedded in all our bodies.
Our collective agony doesnt just affect African Americans. White Americans
suffer their own secondary trauma as well. So do blue Americansour police.
My Grandmothers Hands is a call to action for all of us to recognize that rac-
ism is not about the head, but about the body, and introduces an alternative view
of what we can do to grow beyond our entrenched racialized divide.
Paves the way for a new, body-centered understanding of white supremacy

Beware the housebound kitty-cat. Japanese lore tells us that if you keep a cat as

until the company is taken from her by her nemesis, Al King.
But when Milanas old ally Joe Gallo manages to hijack Als ship, Milana

be able to win her freedom. She and Miranda can go home and Prosper Inc. will
be hers again. But the plants, Caliban and Ariel? They have other ideas.

The Mortal Wound
Stephen Michell
When six year-old Evan is kidnapped from his foster home, he is dragged into a
world of shadows, monsters, and fire. At first, all Evan can think about is how to
escape from his violent captor, a man who calls himself Rook; but Evan quickly
learns that Rook is the only person with the power to protect him against a host
of more horrible dangers. As Rooks true nature is revealed through mysterious,
magical acts, Evan must wonder if Rook is indeed a person or rather a monster
himself.
Pursued across the wintery Southern Ontario countryside, with the baying of
police dogs at their heels and deeper horrors lurking in the woods, the orphan
boy and the roguish man begin to understand each other. Evan admits that he also
has mysterious, magical powers, but doesnt know how to control them. Rook be-

When a Woman Rises
Christine Engla Eber
Two Zapatista women, bound by cultural expectations,

struggle to express the truth of their lives in the highlands of Chiapas.
When a woman rises, a community is nourished. In the Maya township of

Chenalh in Chiapas, Veronica, a teenage girl, is recovering from a disastrous
early marriage. Spurred on by a community program of women telling their sto-
ries, she asks her mother Magdalena to record the story of her growing up and that
of her best friend, Lucia. Magdalena, step by step, day by day, summons the soul of
her comadre who has disappeared. She tells how, as young girls, they yearned to be
teachers. How poverty, cultural beliefs, and gender roles stole away their dreams.
Magdalena married and bore children, finding expression as a community or-
ganizer. Lucias path diverged radically. Her gift was to be a healing woman, but
without knowing how or why, she fell in love with a nun. Distraught, she joined
the Zapatistas in the wilderness and struggled with alcoholism. Through it all,
Magdalena and Lucia maintained their deep friendship. Then Lucia went north
to work in the fields and disappeared. Veronica, with her mothers help, will carry
this understanding into the future.

Folly Cove
A Smugglers Tale of the Pot Rebellion
Kermit Schweidel
Once-errant stoners score the biggest load of Colombian pot

that had yet to reach our shores. A true tale.
Against a 1970s backdrop of Vietnam, political corruption, and radical activ-

ism, comes the true story of a loose confederacy of thrill-seeking opportunists
and disaffected veterans who pulled off the largest, most audacious pot smuggle
yet attemptedover twenty-eight tons of primo Colombian headed for the
densely populated coast of Massachusetts in a rusty shrimp boat at the height of
hurricane season. From the borderland of El Paso to the High Sierra of Mexico
to the coast of South America and back, this is how they parlayed their first
puff into truckloads, planeloads, and ultimately, the mother lode. Folly Cove
is a high-s pirited tale of the early days, when the business of pot was a benign
crusade to keep America high.
A lot of people got high, a few people got rich, and nobody got hurt. As far as we
were concerned, we broke a law that was already broken.

Feathered Serpent, Dark Heart of Sky
The Origin Myths of Mexico
David Bowles
A contemporary retelling of the origin myths of Mexico,

crafted as a single, concrete narrative.
The stories in Feathered Serpent, Dark Heart of Sky trace the history of the world
from its beginnings in the dreams of the dual god, Ometeotl, to the arrival of the
Spanish conquistadors in Mexico and the fall of the great city Tenochtitlan. In
the course of that history we learn about the Creator TwinsFeathered Serpent
and Dark Heart of Skyand how they built the world on a leviathans back; of
the shape-shifting nahualli; and the aluxes, elfish beings known to help out the
occasional wanderer. And finally, we read Aztec tales about the arrival of the
blonde strangers from across the sea, the strangers who seek to upend the rule of
Motecuhzoma and destroy the very stories we are reading.

Venture of the Infinite Man
Pablo Neruda
Translated by Jessica Powell
Introduction by Mark Eisner
Pablo Nerudas long-overlooked third book of poetry, critical in his poetic

evolution, now translated into English for the very first time!
Over twenty books by Pablo Neruda, the legendary Chilean poet and Nobel
Laureate, have been translated into English, a testament to his enormous ap-
peal. Yet, the work Neruda pointed to as one of the most important books of my
poetry has been woefully neglected and remains virtually unknown.
Venture of the Infinite Man was Nerudas third book, published in 1926, two
years after his widely celebrated and still much-beloved Twenty Love Poems. In a
stark stylistic departure from the love poems, Neruda discarded rhyme, meter,
punctuation, and capitalization in an attempt to better capture the voice of the
subconscious. In an epic poem comprised of fifteen cantos spread over forty-four
unnumbered pages, the Infinite Man sets forth on a virtual sleepwalk through
time and space, on a quest to atone for his past and to rediscover himself.
POETRY
Nerudas readers were not prepared for this experiment, and Venture of the Infinite October
Man did not garner the reception Neruda had hoped for. Indeed, decades after 5 x 5 | 88 pp
its publication, he lamented that it remained the least read and least studied of 978-0-87286-719-2 W
all my work.
Venture of the Infinite Man is a strikingly clear example of a poets creative and
intellectual development, bridging the aching, plain lyricism of Love Poems and
the unique hermeticism of Nerudas next book, the landmark Residence on Earth.
Neruda considered Venture of the Infinite Man essential to his evolution: Within
its smallness and minimal expression, more than most of my works, it claimed, it
secured, the path that I had to follow. Its long-overdue translation into English Marketing Plans
is cause for celebration!

Loaded
A Disarming History of the Second Amendment
Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz
A provocative, timely, and deeply researched history of gun culture

and how it reflects race and power in the United States.
America loves guns. From Daniel Boone and Jesse James to the NRA and Seal
Team 6, gun culture has colored the lore, shaped the law, and protected the
market that arms the nation. In Loaded, Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz peels away
the myths of gun culture to expose the true historical origins of the Second
Amendment, exposing the racial undercurrents connecting the earliest Anglo
settlers with contemporary gun proliferation, modern-day policing, and the con-
solidation of influence of armed white nationalists. From the enslavement of
Blacks and the conquest of Native America, to the arsenal of institutions that
constitute the gun lobby, Loaded presents a peoples history of the Second
Amendment, as seen through the lens of those who have been most targeted by
guns: people of color. Meticulously researched and thought-provoking through-
out, this is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the histori-

The Novel of the Tupinamba Indian
E. F. Granell
Translated by David Coulter
This picaresque allegory of the Spanish Civil War pays homage to the classless
society that might have been.
With his capricious behavior and detachable head, the protagonista mem-
ber of one of Brazils indigenous tribesparodies the Enlightenment concept of
the noble savage as he investigates a civilization upended by conflict. Set against
a landscape peopled by generals, priests, conquistadors, poets, witches, and nuns,
The Novel of the Tupinamba Indian embodies E. F. Granells wartime experiences,
transforming them through a lush and incendiary surrealist imagination.

If Clara
Martha Baillie
A mysterious manuscript falls into a writers bed-ridden lap in this

novel of broken bones, Syrian folktales, and plummets of all varieties.
Praise for The Search for Heinrich Schlgel:

Martha Baillie has written a timeless masterpiece. Every page is full of haunt-
ing wonderment. Truly, I know of no novel quite like itits a blessing. The
Search for Heinrich Schlgel has dreamlike locutions, it tells the most unusual
tale, and it brings the margins of the world to us with photographic immediacy.
Howard Norman, author of Next Life Might Be Kinder
In If Clara, nobody stands on firm ground.

Daisy, an author confined to her home, her leg in a cast from hip to ankle, re-
ceives a parcel containing the manuscript of a novel about a Syrian refugee, and is
asked to pose as its writer. Julia, a curator of installation art, has no idea that her
sister, Clara, has written a novel. However, she does know that Clara suffers from
a debilitating mental illness that renders her wildly unpredictable. And Maurices
life is changed by a pair of binoculars welded to the wall of Julias gallery. These
stories collide in a most unexpected way. FICTION

Curry
Eating, Reading, and Race
Naben Ruthnum
No two curries are the same. This Curry asks why the dish is supposed
to represent everything brown people eat, read, and do.
Curry is a dish that doesnt quite exist, but, as this wildly funny and sharp essay
points out, a dish that doesnt properly exist can have infinite, equally authen-
tic variations. By grappling with novels, recipes, travelogues, pop culture, and
his own background, Naben Ruthnum depicts how the distinctive taste of curry
has often become maladroit shorthand for brown identity. With the sardonic wit
of Gita Mehtas Karma Cola and the refined, obsessive palette of Bill Bufords
Heat, Ruthnum sinks his teeth into the story of how the beloved flavor calci-
fied into an aesthetic genre that limits the imaginations of writers, readers, and
eaters. Following in the footsteps of Salman Rushdies Imaginary Homelands,
Curry cracks open anew the staid narrative of an authentically Indian diasporic
experience.
Naben Ruthnum won the Journey Prize for his short fiction, has been a National
Post books columnist, and has written books and cultural criticism for the Globe
SOCIAL SCIENCE and Mail, Hazlitt, and the Walrus. His crime fiction has appeared in Ellery Queens

Hard To Do
The Surprising, Feminist History of Breaking Up
Kelli Mara Korducki
From Jane Austen to Taylor Swift, a look at the

surprising politics of romantic love and its dissolution.
Whatever the underlying motivesbe they love, financial security, or mere

masochismt he fact is that getting involved in a romantic partnership is emo-
tionally, morally, and even politically fraught. In Hard To Do, Kelli Mara Korducki
turns a Marxist lens on the relatively short history of romantic partnership, trac-
ing how the myth of economic equality between men and women has transformed
the ways women conceive of domestic partnership. With perceptive, reported
insights on the ways marriage and divorce are legislated, the rituals of twentieth-
century courtship, and contemporary practices for calling it off, Korducki reveals
that, for all women, choosing to end a relationship is a radical action with very
limited cultural precedent.
Kelli Mara Korducki is a journalist and cultural critic. Her byline has appeared
frequently in the Globe and Mail and National Post, as well as in the New Inquiry,

In the Distance
Hernn Daz
A young Swedish boy, separated from his brother, becomes a man;

the man, despite himself, becomes a legend and outlaw.
A young Swedish boy finds himself penniless and alone in California. He travels
East in search of his brother, moving on foot against the great push to the West.
Driven back over and over again on his journey through vast expanses, Hkan
meets naturalists, criminals, religious fanatics, Indians, and lawmen, and his ex-
ploits turn him into a legend. Daz defies the conventions of historical fiction and
genre (travel narratives, the bildungsroman, nature writing, the Western), of-
fering a probing look at the stereotypes that populate our past and a portrait of

Empty Set
Vernica Gerber Bicecci
Translated by Christina MacSweeney
A Venn diagram for love, Vernica Gerber Biceccis narrator traces and
reconstructs her relationships using geometry, ice cores, and tree rings.
Vernica Gerber writes with a luminous intimacy; her novel is clever, vibrant,
moving, profoundly original. Reading it made me feel as if the world had been
rebuilt.Francisco Goldman
From the very beginning, Vernica Gerber set out to write a novel that would
end up at a loss for words. She alone could achieve this feat: because shes a visual
artist who takes everything she reads in as concentric circles threaded with color,
and because she writes essays on painters who write across canvasses and writ-
ers who paint plots from the realities of life. . . . She alone could bring the nec-
essary silence to a novel so perfect it ended up leaving me speechless as well.
Jorge F. Hernndez
How do you draw an affair? A family? Can a Venn diagram show the ways over-
laps turn into absences, tree rings tell us what happens when mothers leave?
Can we fall in love according to the hop skip of an acrostic? Empty Set is a novel FICTION

Mean
Myriam Gurba
Myrium Gurba grows up queer, Chicana, and take-no-prisoners.

Her story is a revelation, a delight, and an eye-opener.
Myriam Gurbas debut is the bold and hilarious tale of her coming of age as a
queer, mixed-race Chicana. Blending radical formal fluidity and caustic humor,
Mean turns what might be tragic into piercing, revealing comedy. This is a con-
fident, funny, brassy book that takes the cost of sexual assault, racism, misogyny,
and homophobia deadly seriously.
We act mean to defend ourselves from boredom and from those who would cut off our
breasts. We act mean to defend our clubs and institutions. We act mean because we
like to laugh. Being mean to boys is fun and a second-wave feminist duty. Being mean
to men who deserve it is a holy mission. Sisterhood is powerful, but being mean is more
exhilarating.
Being mean isnt for everybody.
Being mean is best practiced by those who understand it as an art form.
These virtuosos live closer to the divine than the rest of humanity. Theyre queers.

Based in Nova Scotia, Andy Browns Conundrum Press has quietly become a major force in altcomics
publishing. The Comics Journal
A notable Canadian indie comics press with a roster ofdistinctive comics talents. Publishers Weekly
Conundrum Press was founded in 1996 among the political turmoil and cultural vibrancy of Montreal,
Quebec, Canada. Being an Anglophone press in a Francophone city meant maintaining an outsider
perspective and strong DIY aesthetic. This served us well for the first decade of publishing chapbooks, short
stories, novels, comics, and zine collections. But in the next decade we moved to Nova Scotia and focused
on exclusively literary graphic novels. This paid off with invitations to international festivals and increased
sales, as well as higher visibility in the United States and Canada, including feature articles in Publishers
Weekly and Quill and Quire. Our BDANG imprint continues to publish Francophone artists from Quebec in
translation and present their work to the rest of North America. Recently we have also started an international
imprint and begun to acquire more LGBTQ and Young Adult content. Part of our mission will always be to
discover new voices in the graphic novel field. Conundrum is the home of many awardwinning artists, such
as: Shary Boyle, Jillian Tamaki, Joe Ollmann, Michel Rabagliati, David Collier, Meags Fitzgerald, Dakota
McFadzean, Nina Bunjevac, and so many more.

Dreams in Thin Air
Michael M. Nybrandt and Thomas E. Mikkelsen
Preface by the Dalai Lama
The amazing story of how the Tibetan National soccer team came to be!
Twenty years ago, Danish journalist Michael Nybrandt was cycling across Tibet.
An unexpected storm forced him to seek shelter in a monastery, where he dis
covered the Tibetan peoples unique passion for soccer. During that trip, he also
learned about the heartbreaking treatment the Tibetan people received at the
hands of the Chinese government. He envisioned the creation of a Tibetan na
tional soccer team as a way to create awareness about the Tibetan cause and to
offer the Tibetan people a way to showcase their national pride, apart from geo
political schemes. Together with fellow Tibetan soccer enthusiasts, it took years
of preparation, overcoming bureaucratic problems and political turmoil, before
Tibet could play their first international match against Greenland in front of
more than 5,000 spectators in Copenhagen.
Featuring an introduction by His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

extent to which their lives are intertwined. They all hope for a better life, and that

Book of Twilight
Pablo Neruda
Translated by William ODaly
Pablo Nerudas debut, never before published in its entirety in English,
is the latest volume in Copper Canyons bestselling series.
The greatest poet of the 20th century in any language.Gabriel Garcia Marquez
His enormous scope was due to the fact that he dared take on the risks of impu-
rity, imperfection, and, yes, banality. He had to do it, in order to name a world.
Our world.New York Times
Neruda lived a life of passionate engagement and his work was ambitious in
every sense.Los Angeles Times
When Nobel Laureate Pablo Neruda was a teenager, he pawned a family heirloom
to fund the publication of his first book, Book of Twilight, whichuntil nowhas
never been published in its entirety in the United States.
Presenting the highly romantic style refined and empowered in his later
books, Nerudas debut introduces a bold poet unafraid to take risks, push
boundaries, and write towards an unapologetic romanticism. Everything we
know about Nerudaa ll his gestures, hyperbole, and effusivenessappears
vividly and for the first time in these poems. POETRY

Javier Zamora was nine years old when he traveled unaccompanied 4,000 miles,
across multiple borders, from El Salvador to the United States to be reunited with
his parents. This dramatic and hope-fi lled poetry debut humanizes the highly

a birth country thats been left behind.

Barbies cultural artifice is unmasked by Victoria Changs imagination,

With astringent understatement and wry economy, with nuance and intelli-

River Hymns is the lyrical journey of a young black mans
spiritual reckoning with his family history.
Tyree Daye is a poet of extraordinary ability and surprise. I find new music to
delight in every time I come back to this book. I encounter new ways to think
about family and community, new ways to wrestle with my own landscape and
legacy. Gabrielle Calvocoressi
Winner of the 2017 American Poetry Review/Honickman First Book Prize,

River Hymns invites the reader into the complex lineage of the values, contradic-
tions, and secrets of a southern family. These poems reflect on the rich legacy of a
young black mans ancestry: what to use, what to leave behind, and what haunts.
And Tyree Daye can write the blues one moment and conjure great humor the
next, as when he says, I knew God was a man because he put a baby in Mary
without her permission.

Stephen Dixon
This companion volume to Late Stories renders

another heartbreaking examination of grief.
Stephen Dixon has long been regarded as one of Americas preeminent literary
innovators. Dear Abigail, the companion volume to Dixons prior collection Late
Stories, continues the story of Philip Seidel, an aging writer who painstakingly re-
counts every detail of the long days left in his life after losing his beloved, Abigail.
Seidel ruminates on the early days of his marriage as well as the traces of memo
ries now lost to time. Through conversations with acquaintances unaware of his
wifes passing, letters, and stories written to the various women he loved before
her, this collection gathers the words of a man stricken with grief. In Dear Abigail
and Other Stories, Stephen Dixon continues his examination of the process of
mourning and how it shapes and reshapes both our experience and recollection
of love.

Tintype Portraits of West Coast Skateboarders

Essays by Joel Rice
The portraits in Skaters compel the subject, the photographer, and the viewer

glimpse into the skateboarders core being: pensive, tough, playful, anxious, dis-
tracted, and innocent. Even the plates of seemingly empty skate parks are in fact
teeming with immense energy and motion, yet the skaters are moving too quickly
to be captured with long exposures.

Translated by Hester Velmans
Winner of the 2014 Anton Wachter Prize for Best First Novel,
the Golden Book Owl Readers Choice Award, the Opzij Feminist
Literature Prize, and the Lucy B. & C. W. van der Hoogt Prize.
Dutch author Nia Weijers took the world of European literature by storm in
2014 with her debut novel The Consequences, which quickly sold 30,000 copies in
Holland and garnered praise from the international literary community for its ma-
turity and ambition (Actes Sud and Surhkamp editions were released in 2016).
Using subtle, captivating prose, Weijers tells the story of Minnie Panis, a

success in the art world, and her relationship with an emotionally distant mother.
Beginning with Minnies near-death experience falling through the ice during
her ultimate artwork, Weijers takes readers on a rollercoaster ride as Minnie un-
covers the truth behind her premature birth. The doctor who saves her life, twice,
enters Minnie into his clinic, whose motto All the fish has to do is get lost in the
water helps her arrive at the border of lifes ebb, where meaningful art and revela-
tions occur. An intimate, often humorous exploration of the intertwining cycles FICTION

The Vl dHiv Raid
The French Police at the Service of the Gestapo
Maurice Rajsfus
Translated by Levi Laub
Foreword by Michel Warschawski
A micro-history of anti-Semitism, xenophobia, police brutality, and terror.
Beginning in the early morning hours of July 16, 1942, and lasting for two days,
the French police went beyond Nazi ordinances and took it upon themselves
to arrest and imprison more than 13,000 Jews at a Paris sporting arena, the
Vlodrome dHiver. For most of the Jews, this detention without water, food, or
sleep was the first horrific step toward death in the concentration camps. This
uniquely detailed study of the roundup offers the only contemporary analysis of
both the precursors and the aftermath of the events of those two days. Using re-
cently opened police files, Maurice Rajsfus details the internal organization of
the police, showing the mechanisms of this raid in particular and of raids in gen-
eral, making the book an indispensable micro-h istory of the Holocaust. A com-
panion piece to Rajsfuss Operation Yellow Star / Black Thursday (DoppelHouse
Press, 2017), The Vl dHiv Raid includes witness and police reports, shocking
excerpts from the collaborationist press, and speeches by contemporary French
politicians whose official apology is still not complete and terribly overdue. HISTORY

In the Cemetery of the Orange Trees
Jeff Talarigo
In the Cemetery of the Orange Trees is a disquieting allegory

of the clash between the occupied and the occupier.
In the mode of J. M. Coetzees Waiting for the Barbarians and Italo Calvinos
Invisible Cities, In the Cemetery of the Orange Trees engages poetic language,
mythic themes, and childlike perspectives to offer an original approach to a
conflict that has become hardened and polarized. These linked stories of an
Americans experience in Gaza expose the seven-decade long Palestinian dias-
pora in a disquieting allegory of the clash between the occupied and the occupier.
In a place where political posturing, bloody war, journalistic witness, and even
patient negotiation have yielded so little understanding, we enter the cemetery
of the orange trees, where urchins kite dead birds, goats utter wisdom, camels
and donkeys huddle together, and merchandise magically passes underground
through the tunnels of Gaza. But this is no fairy tale or bestiary. In the Cemetery
of the Orange Trees is a waking, attentive dream-journal, leading us back to a
place where hatred, strife, and even human language itself might sing.

The Feminist Press at CUNY
We Were Witches
Ariel Gore
This experimental novel uses magick spells and inverted fairy tales
to combat queer scapegoating, domestic violence,
and high-interest student loans.
Buying into the dream that education is the road out of poverty, a teen mom
takes a chance on bettering herself, gets on welfare rolls, and talks her way into
college. But once shes there, phallocratic narratives permeate every subject, and
creative writing professors depend heavily on Freytags pyramid to analyze life.
So Ariel turns to a rich subcultural canon of resistance and failure, populated
by writers like Audre Lorde, Adrienne Rich, Gloria Anzalda, Tillie Olsen, and
Kathy Acker.
Wryly riffing on feminist literary tropes, We Were Witches documents the sur-
vival of a demonized single mother. Shes beset by custody disputes, homophobia,
and Americas ever-present obsession with shaming strange women into passive
citizenship. But even as the narrator struggles to graduateoften the triumphant
climax of a dramatic plota question uncomfortably lingers. If youre dealing with FICTION
precarious parenthood, queer identity, and debt, what is the true narrative shape September
of your experience? Amethyst Editions

On a dark and stormy night, two mysterious women invade an unnamed narra-

the women are strangely intimateeven inventing a secret languagethey
harass the narrator by repeatedly claiming that they know his greatest secret: that
he is, in fact, a woman. As the increasingly frantic protagonist fails to defend his
supposed masculinity, he eventually finds himself in a sanatorium.

Translation as Transhumance
Mireille Gansel
Translated by Ros Schwartz
Mireille Gansel grew up in the traumatic aftermath of her family losing

everythingincluding their native languagesto Nazi Germany. In the 1960s
and 70s, she translated poets from East Berlin and Vietnam to help broad-
cast their defiance to the rest of the world. Winner of a French Voices Award,
Gansels debut illustrates the estrangement every translator experiences for the
privilege of moving between tongues and muses on how translation becomes
an exercise of empathy between those in exile.

The Restless
Gerty Dambury
Translated by Judith G. Miller
Structured like a Creole quadrille, this lyrical novel is a rich ethnography bearing
witness to police violence in French Guadeloupe. Narrators both living and dead
recount the racial and class stratification that led to a protest-t urned-massacre.
While Damburys English debut is a memorial to a largely forgotten atrocity, it is
also a celebration of the vibrancy and resilience of Guadeloupeans.

with sex, drugs, and the slumming, glittering elite.
I was a Long Island kid that graduated college in 1976 and moved to Greenwich

Standing outside, staring at the crowd, it was out there versus in here and
I was on the inside. The Mudd Club was fi lled with the famous and soon-to-be fa-
mous, along with an eclectic core of Mudd regulars who gave the place its iden-
tity. Everyone from Jean-Michel Basquiat, Je Koons, and Robert Rauschenberg
to Johnny Rotten, The Hells Angels, and John Belushi: passing through, passing
out, and some, passing on. Marianne Faithful and Talking Heads, Frank Zappa,

The War Nerd Iliad
John Dolan
The War Nerd takes on Homer in a new translation;

a classic gory, funny, tragic story in todays language.
We recognize the names: Achilles, Odysseus, Zeus, and Apollo. Were taught that
The Iliad is a foundational text of civilization. But who has really read the text?
Until now, The Iliad was hijacked by academics and used to bludgeon school
children as a boring-yet-mandatory reading.
Poet, novelist, essayist, and former teacher John Dolan revisits this ancient
tale and restores it to its ancient glory. The Greeks and Trojans are still fight-
ing. The gods are still interfering. But in Dolans version, youll be amazed at
how funny, raw, and terrifying this doomed world of war really is. He strips away
clunky, archaic language to reveal the true meaning and themes that animate
this tale of war and futility.
John Dolans work under the nom de guerre Gary Brecher The War Nerd
has been met with both acclaim and controversy. Dolans version of The Iliad is
sapped of the usual saccharine romance attributed to heroes and lets the ac-
tion tell the story. Regardless of attributed name, Dolan/Brecher is an astute ob- FICTION / HISTORY

the agendas hiding behind climate change misinformation. Elana Freeland
explores the collusive international cabals that champion the modern methods
of human enslavement. From chemical ionization to antimatter, a future of full
spectrum dominance appears imminent. Though many people now realize that
mainstream media is controlled by money and military-industrial-intelligence
agendas, citizens are also deluged by a mix of information, disinformation, and
outright lies. In this brave new world of alternate facts and blatant disinforma-
tion campaigns, how can the average person discern the actual truth?
What makes a space-based weapons system or Space Fence so critical to
global powers? The military-industrial-intelligence complex is moving fast to
set up the Space Fence before more scientists and leaders awaken to the power

The highly anticipated reprint of a classic childrens book

by renowned illustrator and graphic designer James Flora.
Jim Floras fantastically illustrated books captivated kids throughout the 1960s

Ghost Stories has been the most sought-a fter of his childrens books, and Feral
House is pleased to announce the first reprint since its original publication in
1978. These ghoulish and amusing stories and wildly inventive illustrations will
keep readers shivering. Perhaps better known for his brilliant and madcap illus-
trations that graced the covers of hundreds of jazz and classical record albums in
the 1940s and 50s, Jim Flora also wrote and illustrated seventeen popular books
for children. In this book, Grandpa comforts his grandson during a fierce thun-
derstorm by telling him stories about far scarier things, including a hungry were-
wolf and an evil witch who turns boys into spiders. The illustrations bring the
tall tales to life with Floras incomparable humor and wit.

Long Time No See
Hannah Lowe
A touching memoir about a loving but remote father

whose inner demons spur him to the status of master gambler.
Hannah Lowes father Chick, a half-Chinese, half-black Jamaican immigrant,

worked long hours at night to support his familyexcept Chick was no ordinary
working man. A legendary gambler, he would vanish into the shadows of East
London to win at cards or dice, returning during the daylight hours to greet the
daughter whose love and respect he courted.
In this poignant memoir, Lowe calls forth the unstable world of card sharps,
confidence men, and small-t ime criminals that eventually took its toll on Chick.
She also recalls her own coming-of-age in a London suburb during the racially
charged 1980s and conjures her fathers difficult childhood in a changing
Jamaica, where he first honed his formidable skills. Lowe tells Chicks story elo-
quently, even as she begins to make sense of her own.
Gently paced, dramatic, and complex, Long Time No See speaks of love and
its absence; regret and compassion; and the struggle to know oneself.
Hannah Lowe teaches at the Poetry School in London. Her poetry collection, November

Resisting Trumps Shock Politics and Winning the World We Need
Naomi Klein
A roadmap to resistance in the Trump era from internationally

acclaimed activist and bestselling author Naomi Klein.
The election of Donald Trump is a dangerous escalation in a world of cascading

crises. Trumps visiona radical deregulation of the US economy in the inter-
est of corporations, an all-out war on radical Islamic terrorism, and sweeping
aside climate science to unleash a domestic fossil fuel frenzywill generate wave
after wave of crises and shocks: to the economy, to national security, and to the
environment.
In No Is Not Enough, Naomi Klein explains that Trump, extreme as he is, is not
an aberration but a logical extension of the worst and most dangerous trends of
the past half-century. In exposing the malignant forces behind Trumps rise, she
puts forward a bold vision for a mass movement to counter rising militarism, na-
tionalism, and corporatism in the United States and around the world.

On New Terrain
How Capital is Reshaping the Battleground of Class War
Kim Moody
An insightful and timely analysis of how global economic

restructuring will impact workers struggles in the United States.
Kim Moody is one of the leading intellectuals of the labor movement.

R obin D.G. Kelley, author of Race Rebels: Culture, Politics and the Black
Working Class
In his latest book, Kim Moody analyzes how recent changes in capitalism have al-
tered both the composition of the working class and the economic and political
ground on which it struggles.
On New Terrain challenges conventional wisdom about a disappearing work-
ing class and the inevitability of a two-party political structure as the only frame-
work for struggle.
Through in-depth study of the economic and political shifts at the top of soci-
ety, Moody shows how recent developments in capitalist production impact the
working class and its power to resist the status quo. He argues that this trans-
formed industrial terrain offers new possibilities for organization in the workplace

Couples in Art
Agata Toromanoff
Iconic lovers throughout history portrayed by artists.
This book tells the story of romantic companionship in one hundred works of
art. Chronologically arranged and emotionally driven, this study of couples
runs through many cultures, civilizations, and epochs. With examples from
across the globe, it portrays iconic and lesser-k nown (yet fascinating) couples
immortalized in the history of art. Whether affectionately embracing, engaged
in flirtatious exchanges, seducing one another, or simply enjoying each others
company, readers are invited into their complex world of passion, lust, and love.
This celebration of these romantic relationships is expressed through sculptures,
paintings, photographs, tapestries, stained glass, and illustrations.
Gathered together are representations of couples from ancient cultures
(Amenophis IV and Nefertiti), the Middle Ages (Tristan and Isolde), and the
Renaissance (Paolo and Francesca). The book also covers contemporary pairs
such as John Lennon and Yoko Ono or Gilbert and George, and artists such as

Winds & Currents
Native American Myths and Legends Retold and Illustrated
Joan Henrik
An award-winning visual artist presents

a stunning combination of stories and images
inspired by retold Native American myths and legends.
Visual artist Joan Henrik has been profoundly inspired by the legends and stories
that had their origins in native folklore. Native people come from an oral nar-
rative tradition which has always been a sacred process, because it provided the
people with social, cultural, and historical contexts. The oral narrative has acted
as a social cohesive for the entire tribe and constitutes the cultural grounding
of indigenous people for thousands of years.
Motivated by these stories, Henrik created fourteen animal icons for a ter-
azzo floor design now inlaid in the new Amsoil sports arena in the Duluth
Entertainment Convention Center. Her award-w inning Winds & Currents was
selected by the Duluth Public Arts Commission in an open competition.
These stories are cautionary tales demonstrating what we can learn from

10 x 10 | 44 pp America. After the floor completion, the stories are now collected together in
978-0-9864480-8-9 USC this volume. Based on these iconic images, Henrik has included fourteen of her
ready to color line drawings with which readers can interact and create their
own interpretations of the visual art.
Joan Henrik began her graphic design career in Duluth, Minnesota, where she
attended the University of Minnesota. She has worked more than fifty years in
advertising, including over twenty-five years with the Westmorland, Larson, and
Marketing Plans Hill agency. In 2011, the National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association selected her
floor design as one of the best terrazzo floors in the United States.

Lord of California
Andrew Valencia
A speculative literary novel set in a future where the United States has
dissolved and California has become an independent republic.
A remarkable debut. Valencia writes with a sinuous maturity, a boldness of vision

far beyond his years. In Lord of California, this beyond-seeing is literal: wild, im-
pressive, at times menacing invention about what a separatist California might
look like begins to look downright prescient, and Valencias portraitist skill with
his characters lifts them off the page, too.Ryan McIlvain, author of Elders
Set in a future where the United States has dissolved and California is its own in-
dependent republic, Lord of California follows the struggles of the Temple fam-
ily as they work at running a farm on a nationalized land parcel in the central San
Joaquin Valley. When the family patriarch, Elliot, dies, its revealed that he had
been keeping five separate families, and in the aftermath of their discovery, his
widows and children must come together to keep from losing all they have. But
their livelihood is threatened when Elliots estranged son tries to blackmail them,

Resist and Rebel
The Peoples Uprising in America
Jonathan Tasini
The road ahead for the political revolution ignited by

Bernie Sanders, and how it can lead to a progressive future.
A vital and timely discussion of the future of the Democratic Party, Resist and
Rebel analyzes the road ahead for the political revolution that was ignited by the
presidential run of Bernie Sanders. Jonathan Tasini uses his decades of activism,
and his experience as a national surrogate for the Sanders campaign, to show that,
despite the 2016 election results, there are in fact countless progressive activists
embedded throughout the country who are ready to be part of a rebellion and
resistance to the elites, particularly those who have controlled the Democratic
Party. Tasini shows how many of these people are already hard at work spread-
ing progressive politics and organizing in every corner of the country. In addi-
tion to exploring the failure of the quarter-century-long neoliberal focus of the
Democratic Party, Resist and Rebel also offers a way forward, showing what a true
progressive agenda looks like, as well as offering practical advice on how many
of todays young activists can run for office, in order to turn their protests into
POLITICAL SCIENCE policy and take back their government.

The Terror Factory: The Isis Edition
Trevor Aaronson
An ISIS/Trump update to the bestselling book about

the FBIs role in manufacturing terrorist plots.
Compelling, shocking, and gritty with intrigue.P ublishers Weekly (starred

review)
A real eye-opener that questions how well the countrys security is being
protected.K irkus (starred review)
A groundbreaking work of investigative journalism, The Terror Factory: The

Isis Edition exposes how the FBI has, under the guise of engaging in counter
terrorism since 9/11, built a network of more than 15,000 informants whose pri-
mary purpose is to infiltrate Muslim communities to create and facilitate phony
terrorist plots so that the Bureau can then claim it is winning the war on terror.
This updated edition of The Terror Factory examines the FBIs use of stings to
catch ISIS sympathizers in the United States, as well as how the bureau, already
transformed into an intelligence agency whose tactics are similar to those of the
CIA and NSA, has and will change under the presidency of Donald Trump.

Agrotoxins in Argentina
Photographs and Text by Pablo E. Piovano
In 1996, the Argentinian government approved the cultivation of transgenic

soybeans and the use of glyphosate herbicide spray, only relying on studies from
the Monsanto Company. With nearly two decades of glyphosate spraying di-
rectly or indirectly affecting one third of the countrys population, Argentina
has become a field study in toxic disaster with hundreds of scientific studies
and medical surveys confirming the herbicides lethal impact. Respiratory and
skin disorders, mental disabilities, and spontaneous abortions are just a few of
the documented health effects on those living directly in the sprays path.

that these communities are in crisis when something occurs that lands them on

Imperial is the youngest and poorest county in California and one of the main
producers of winter vegetables, salads, grain, and alfalfa in the United States.
The demand for water is enormousold water rights ensure Imperial County
vast quantities of water from the Colorado River. Here, hard-working people,
especially Hispanics, labor in the fields to the point of exhaustion, while the
homeless, the displaced, and the downshifters live the flip-side of the American
Dream. Berlin-based photographer Lars Borges dedicates his book project to
these people in an effort to point out the effects of unbridled global capitalism

New Deal Utopias

Photographs by Jason Reblando
Essays by Natasha Egan and Robert Leighninger, Jr.
New Deal Utopias explores one of the most ambitious but overlooked programs
of the New Deal, the Greenbelt Towns, designed and built by the United States
government to be model cities in the 1930s. The program was critiqued as com-
munistic by conservative members of Congress, industrial and corporate lead-
ers, and newspapers, yet they still managed to make an indelible impression
on urbanist ideas in America. Jason Reblandos contemporary photographs of
Greenbelt, Maryland; Greenhills, Ohio; and Greendale, Wisconsin offer a rich
visual and intellectual experience and invite viewers to reflect upon planned
communities and the human urge to create an ideal society.

Walden
Photographs by S. B. Walker
Text contribution by Alan Trachtenberg
What has become of the fabled Walden Pond? In his debut title, S. B. Walker
surveys the symbolically charged landscape of literary giant Henry David Thoreau.
Deeply rooted in the American collective consciousness, it is a mythical place
perceived as wild and often considered to be the birthplace of the modern envi-
ronmental movement. Contemporary Walden, however, is perhaps best charac-
terized as a glorified suburban park, nestled amongst the sprawl of metropolitan
Boston. As our awareness of the place is borne out of Thoreaus description some
150 years ago, the current state of affairs portrayed in Walkers images reveals a
thought-provoking paradox.

Same Dream Another Time

Photographs and Text by Jay Wolke
When Jay Wolke made these photographs in the late 1980s and early 1990s, there
were two major centers for gambling in the United States: Las Vegas, Nevada
and Atlantic City, New Jersey. He was fascinated with the accentuated layers and
intersections of people, artifice, architecture, and landscape, charged with expec-
tation and aspiration. Wolkes images expose the symbols of desire alongside the
realities of uncertainty and deception. The project has now become both a time
capsule and an index of the contemporary, addressing larger themes that are
every bit as meaningful today as they were thirty years ago.

Finding Bones
Photographs by Grey Crawford
Text contributions by Timothy Persons and Lyle Rexer
Finding Bones introduces a newly rediscovered body of work by Grey Crawford.

Its an anthology of photographs that embody the creative spirit that was preva
lent throughout the Los Angeles art scene at the time. Southern California in
the early 1970s was an island of its own creation: a mixture of surf, sea, and con-
crete highways winding around an ever-changing cultural climate, it challenged
assumptions of the definition of art. Crawford chooses his backgrounds with a
sense of austerity as a means for introducing these hard-edged shapes and using
them as the building blocks for his own language.

The Most Beautiful Flowers

Photographs and Text by Kenji Toma
This photo series is Kenji Tomas homage to the botanical illustrations in Choix
Des Plus Belles Fleurs by Pierre-Joseph Redout, one of the most well-regarded
flower encyclopedias of the nineteenth century. Back when color photography
did not exist, these images were illustrated with the purpose of replicating the
botanic subject as realistically as possible. Toma is interested in doing the exact
opposite with the photographic medium which, realistic by nature, can also be
used to make a subject look unreal and artificial. The result is a highly contempo-
rary and fascinating revival of the concept of the botanical encyclopedia.

photograph, taken from behind, was of a young woman whose hair was held up
by an ornate clip. Five months later, she began the series that became A Modern
Hair Study. Photographers statement: While certain ideals are often relevant
to different generations, the ways in which women adorn and modify them-
selves often indicate the struggles of a young adult with their own ideology and
individuality. After photographing these young women, I can imagine these
struggles are timeless.

Photographs and Text by Ashkan Sahihi
For Iranian-A merican photographer Ashkan Sahihi, New York City in the 1980s
epitomized refuge and protection, progress and opportunity. But the commu-
nity was soon shaken by HIV and AIDS, and numerous friends and colleagues
from the art scene lost their lives. In the 2010s in Berlin, it appeared to Sahihi that
Berlin had replaced New York as a place of longing. Sahihis conceptual series is
an homage to friends of days past and a plea for the privilege of living a life in free-
dom and openness, as well as for tolerance and a sense of belonging.

Anti-Gone
Connor Willumsen
Join an oneiric odyssey through a slacker second life.
Realitys grip is loosened as Spyda and Lynxa explore a potentially constructed

environment that shifts between dystopic future and constructed virtual present.
Like a form of multistable perceptual phenomena, Anti-Gone exists in ambiguity.
Anti- Gone recalls videogames that attempt to replicate, or perhaps replace,
reality. Often called virtual or synthetic worlds, massively multiplayer online
worlds offer an escape into another identity, another life, where there isnt a goal
or final boss. Anti- Gone is like Joyce with a joystick, the experience and the lan-
guage of this otherworld is the meaning.
Connor Willumsen is a Montreal-based artist originally from Calgary, AB,

where he received a design degree at the Alberta College of Art and Design. He
began making comics while attending the School of Visual Arts in New York City.

Im Not Here
GG
A woman torn between her family and her independence,

unmoored between what is and what could be.
A young, second-generation immigrant wanders through her city and memories,

encountering the world through a cameras lens, her independence pulled by the

sibly be her potential self.
This is a subtle, beautifully drawn work that recalls the cerebral, humanist
science fiction of filmmakers such as Chris Marker and Miranda July mixed with
the generational themes and unwavering hand of Yasujiro Ozu. GGs comics re-
call films in more than theme alone: her drawings, with their deep chiaroscuro
and subtitle-like use of text, appear to be stills pulled from an enchanting and
mysterious foreign film.

The French Country Housewife
The First Volume of Maison Rustique des Dames
Cora Millet-Robinet
Translated with an introduction by Tom Jaine
A guide to furnishing and decorating, managing the household,

entertaining guests, and fine French cookery, la cuisine bourgeoise.
The French Mrs. Beeton, Cora Millet-R obinets book was found in every
nineteenth-century French household, a first resource in the kitchen, the gar-
den, and the drawing-room. A treasure trove from the past, it tells us how she
went about furnishing and decorating, managing the family and the household,
entertaining guests, and of course cookery. From bottling and preserving fruit
and vegetables, making jam, and salting meat to the staples of French cooking,
la cuisine bourgeoise, Madame Millet-R obinet is always informative.
An English translation of the first volume of the fourth edition (1859), this
is a handbook for the active woman who is a true partner to her husband, no mere
ornament.
Madame Millet-Robinets book is a fabulous source of information for lovers
of history, for readers of novels from the heroic age of French literatureVictor
Hugo, Honor de Balzac, and Gustave Flaubert; for enthusiasts for French cook-
ery; and for all those people with houses deep in the French countryside wanting
to know more about their surroundings. COOKING

The Climate Majority
Leo Barasi
Explores the causes of climate apathy and the ways to

build a climate majority which will prevent disaster.
The Climate Majority is the first book to investigate climate apathy, to describe
how it prevents action to stop climate change and to show how it can be beaten
with an approach developed for political campaigns.
Leo Barasi argues that dangerous climate change will only be prevented if
the majority of peopleincluding those who arent environmentalistsa re per-
suaded of the need to limit emissions. He applies his policy and campaign expe-
rience to show that politicizing climate change makes it more difficult to build
consensus, particularly among people who are currently apathetic.
This is one of few books to focus on public opinion and climate change and it
attempts to reveal what people really think by drawing examples and evidence
of from the United States, the UK, Australia, and Canada.
In a time of growing nationalism in many developed countriesa nd right-
wing negativity towards the need for meaningful actionThe Climate Majority of-
fers a new way of understanding what can be done within the system, rather than

Pure Charcuterie
The Craft and Poetry of Curing Meats at Home
Meredith Leigh
Salt, sausage, and smokethe artistry of curing your own meats.
Cured meat products arose from the need for preservation in a time when cook-
ing and refrigeration were not always available. Today, charcuterie is an embodi-
ment of art in the kitchen, combining precision, balance, patience, and creativity;
an economy of ingredients, as poetry is an economy of words. The confluence of
these elements, along with the purest of ingredients, can enable anyone to craft
cured meats in their home.
Pure Charcuterie is a practical and artistic look at the techniques for curing meat
at home both as a creative hands-on craft and as a fantastic and sustainable way
to preserve highly valuable food. This accessible, beautiful, visual guide walks

A New Garden Ethic
Cultivating Defiant Compassion for an Uncertain Future
Benjamin Vogt
In a time of climate change and mass extinction,

who we garden for matters more than ever.
Our landscapes push aside wildlife and in turn diminish our genetically-
programmed love for wildness. How can we get ourselves back into balance
through gardens, to speak lifes language and learn from other species?
Plenty of books tell home gardeners and professional landscape designers
how to garden sustainably, what plants to use, and what resources to explore. Yet
few examine why our urban wildlife gardens matter, and not just for ourselves,
but for the larger human and animal communities.
Author Benjamin Vogt addresses why we need a new garden ethic, and why
we urgently need wildness in our daily liveslives sequestered in buildings sur-
rounded by monocultures of lawn and concrete that significantly harm our physi
cal and mental health. He examines the psychological issues around climate
change and mass extinction as a way to understand how we are short circuit-
ing our response to global crises, especially by not growing native plants in our
NATURE / GARDENING gardens. Simply put, environmentalism is not political, its social justice for all
October species marginalized today and for those facing extinction tomorrow.

Uprooting Racism
How White People Can Work for Racial Justice
4th Edition
Paul Kivel
Over 50,000 copies sold of earlier editions! Powerful strategies

and practical tools for white people committed to racial justice.
In 2016, the president-elect of the United States openly called for segregation
and deportation based on race and religion. Meanwhile, inequalities in edu
cation, housing, health care, and the job market continue to prevail, while
increased insecurity and fear have led to an epidemic of scapegoating and ha-
rassment of people of color. Yet, recent polls show that only thirty-one percent of
white people in the United States believe racism is a major societal problem; at the
same time, resistance is strong, as highlighted by indigenous struggles for land and
sovereignty and the Movement for Black Lives.
Completely revised and updated, this fourth edition of Uprooting Racism of-
fers a framework around neol iberalism and interpersonal, institutional, and cul-
tural racism, along with stories of resistance and white solidarity. It provides
practical tools and advice on how white people can work as allies for racial jus-
tice, engaging the reader through questions, exercises, and suggestions for ac-
tion, and includes a wealth of information about specific cultural groups such

The Retro Future
Looking to the Past to Reinvent the Future
John Michael Greer
When new stops meaning improved, isnt it time

to talk about going back to things that actually work?
To most people paying attention to the collision between industrial society

and the hard limits of a finite planet, its clear that things are going very, very
wrong. We no longer have unlimited time and resources to deal with the cri-
ses that define our future, and the options are limited to the tools we have on
hand right now.
This book is about one very powerful option: deliberate technological
regression.
Technological regression isnt about going backits about using the past
as a resource to meet the needs of the present. It starts from the recognition
that older technologies generally use fewer resources and cost less than modern
equivalents, and it embraces the heresy of technological choiceour ability to
choose or refuse the technologies pushed by corporate interests.

The Permaculture Earthworks Handbook
How to Design and Build Swales, Dams, Ponds,
and other Water Harvesting Systems
Douglas Barnes
Maximize your water harvesting potential

with efficient, cost-effective earthworks.
In the face of drought and desertification, well-designed, water harvesting earth-

works such as swales, ponds, and dams are the most effective way to chan-
nel water into productive use. The result can be increased food production,
higher groundwater levels, reduced irrigation needs, and enhanced ecosystem
resilience.
Yet, due to a lack of knowledge, designers, and landowners often build earth-
works that are costly, inappropriately sized and sited, or even dangerous.
The Permaculture Earthworks Handbook is the first dedicated, detailed guide
to the proper design and construction of water harvesting earthworks. It covers
the function, design, and construction methods for nine main types of water
harvesting earthworks across a full range of climates.

North Station
Bae Suah
Translated from the Korean by Deborah Smith
The first English-language story collection from

one of Koreas most exciting young writers.
Bae dissolves conventional linear narrative, as though it were impossible for

cause and effect to exist concurrently with such repression.Joanna Walsh,
The National
A writer struggles to come to terms with the death of her beloved mentor; the
staging of an experimental play goes awry; time freezes for two lovers on a
platform, waiting for the train that will take one of them away; a woman living
in a foreign country discovers she has been issued the wrong ID.
Emotionally haunting and intellectually stimulating, the seven stories in
North Station represent the range and power of Bae Suahs distinctive voice and
style, which delights in digressions, multiple storylines, and sudden ruptures of
societal norms. Heavily influenced by the German authors shes read and trans-
lated, Baes stories combine elements of Korean and European storytelling in a
way thats unforgettable and mesmerizing.
FICTION / SHORT STORIES

The Endless Summer
Madame Nielsen
Translated from the Danish by Gaye Kynoch
A seductive novel of an illicit love affair and one of those

summers that changes everyones life forever.
The Endless Summer by Madame Nielsen is my literary discovery of the year.

Sjn
A passionate love story about a Danish woman and a much younger Portuguese
artist, The Endless Summer confronts ideas of time, sexuality, and tragedy in a
style reminiscent of both Marcel Proust and Lars Von Trier.
Emotional and visceral, the novel drifts through time and space, relating the
lives, loves, and dissolutions of everyone who surrounds this unexpected couple:
the womans former husband, who holds the family at gunpoint; her daughter and
her lovers, who include a boy who finds himself and his true sexual identity in
America; and the young boy who is perhaps a girl, but does not yet know it, who
narrates everyones stories.
Propelled by a captivating story, the real charm of the novel resides in its im-
peccable style and atmosphere, which gathers a sense of longing, a slight nos-

Spanning 500 years of Brazilian history, Her Mothers Mothers Mother and Her
Daughters chronicles a family of women, beginning in 1500 with the birth of
Inai, daughter of a Tupiniquim warrior, and ending in 2001 with Inais distant
descendent, Maria Flor. As each new daughter takes the place of her mother, and
the mothers before her, Maria Jos Silveiras captivating, cinematic prose takes us
through the formation of the country itself, as well as through the roles, customs,
challenges, and intrigues of the women within it.
Subversive and refreshing, Silveira blends great storytelling with personal
politics to critique the machismo, authoritarianism, and abuses of power preva-
lent in Brazilian culture.
Its a delicate subject, the family story is complicated, and not everything was wine and
roses. There was, of course, much happiness and love, many battles and accomplish-

Keef
A Story of Intoxication, Love & Death
Timothy Wilfred Coakley and Ronald K. Siegel
A rare color-enhanced example of Oriental Romanticism and

psychotropic drug use in late nineteenth-century American fiction.
Everything one does in life occurs in an express train racing toward death.
To smoke [cannabis, marijuana, opium] is to get out of the train while it is
still moving. It is to concern oneself with something other than life or death.
Jean Cocteau
Among the native tribesmen in the Rif region of Morocco, who have been smok-
ing a cannabis preparation known as kif for over 800 years, it is accepted as part of
the magic and sorcery in everyday life. This seemingly supernatural effect is nei-
ther physical nor psychological. Rather, it is an unconscious cognitive process
involving perception, thinking, and learning. The cognitive process was given the
name Kif Wisdom.
In Timothy Wilfred Coakleys novel Keef, written in the witchy style of an
Edgar Allan Poe horror story, the narrator, a kif smoker, takes us through his
supernatural search for love powered by his Kif Wisdom growing from his BODY, MIND & SPIRIT / HISTORY

The Gulf Cooperation Council States
Hereditary Succession, Oil and Foreign Powers
Yousef Khalifa Al-Yousef
An exhaustive analysis of the political economies of the GCC States

since the oil boom of the 1970s to the present.
Since the oil boom of the 1970s, the Gulf Cooperation Council States have at-
tempted to achieve economic stability and realize their development goals. Such
efforts have so far been in vain, however, as the states autocratic governments
have closed off their political systems with the support of international allies,
especially the United States.
In this timely and exhaustive analysis of the political economies of the GCC
since the 1970s to the present, Yousef Khalifa Al-Yousef examines the factors
responsible for the failure of the states to achieve lasting change in development
and security. Focusing on institutional structures where oil wealth has been con-
fined to the few, and the consequences of failed legitimacy at home that has led
to dependence on foreign powers, Al-Yousef charts the consistent disparities be-
tween governance and the needs of the local population, to the detriment of genu-
ine development.

Yemen in Crisis
Autocracy, Neo-Liberalism and the Disintegration of a State
Helen Lackner
This is the definitive, highly readable study by eminent Yemen expert

Helen Lackner revealing the conflicts that threaten Yemens very survival.
Yemen is in the grip of its most severe crisis in years. The civil war between the
Huthi rebels and the Western and Arab supporters of the regime has resulted in
thousands killed and three million displaced. Those who remain suffer severe
food shortages and a collapsed economy.
The struggle for power in the Arab worlds poorest but strategically vital na-
tion has serious implications for the region and beyond. While Egypt and Saudi
Arabia fear that a Huthi takeover would threaten free passage of oil through the
Bab al-Mandab strait, western governments fear a rise of attacks from al-Qaida
and Daesh as the country becomes more unstable. Iran has also been implicated
in the conflict, accused of arming the Huthis.
In this invaluable analysis, Helen Lackner uncovers the social and political
conflicts that threaten the very survival of the state and its people. She reveals the
corruption of the countrys US-backed autocratic regime and how it failed to ad-
dress national impoverishment and its limited natural resources, and to plan an
equitable economy for Yemens growing population. Lackner concludes with an POLITICAL SCIENCE
assessment of the current situation and prospects for the short and medium term January
future of this historical region. 5 x 8 | 400 pp

Witch Wife
Kiki Petrosino
With wit, startling diction, and audacious manipulation of syntax and

form, Witch Wifes incantatory poems bring forth wild, singular music.
Petrosino delights in unsettling the familiar with startling results, whether chan-
neling Anne Sexton or William Blake. Her stylish innovation refashions tradi-
tional forms that insist on repetition.Harryette Mullin
Petrosino is at the forefront of a deeply heterogeneous, expansive poetic move-
ment, one that is transforming traditional lyric subjectivity into a more inclusive,
complex space.Boston Review
The poems of Witch Wife are spells, obsessive incantations to exorcise or cele-
brate memory, to mourn the beloved dead, to conjure children or keep them
at bay, to faithfully inhabit ones given body. They are also concerned with dis
mantling received ideas about contemporary American womanhood. What does
it mean to be a wife or mother who feels ambivalent about motherhood? How
are these roles further complicated for women of color in the United States? In

writes in his raw, electrifying second collection. In his debut Hustle, Martinez of-

Latino communities in San Diego. Emerging from the fray, the poet is left to won-
der: Who am I now? In Post-Traumatic Hood Disorder, the speaker assembles a
bricolage self-portrait from the fractures of the past. Sliding between scholarly
diction and slangy vernacular, studded with references to Greek mythology and

Nightmare in Berlin
Hans Fallada

A Perfidious Distortion of History
The Versailles Peace Treaty and the Success of the Nazis
Jrgen Tampke
Controversially challenges the conventional wisdom that the

Versailles Peace Treaty sowed the seeds for World War II.
Anyone who is interested in what remains one of modern historys most impor-
tant debates will want to read this.Margaret MacMillan, author of Paris: 1919
The Versailles Peace Treaty, the pact between Germany and the Allies that
ended World War I, has not enjoyed a positive reputation since its signing in
June 1919. Conventional wisdom has it that the treatys requirements for mas-
sive reparation payments crippled the economy of the Weimar Republic and de-
stabilized its political life. Ultimately, it is believed, the treaty prevented the
seeds of democracy sown in the aftermath of the Great War from flourishing,
and drove the German people into the arms of Adolf Hitler.
In this authoritative book, Jrgen Tampke disputes this commonplace view.
He argues that Germany got away with its responsibility for World War I and its
behavior during it; that the treaty was nowhere near as punitive as has been long
felt; that the German hyperinflation of the 1920s was at least partly a deliberate
December policy to minimize the cost of paying reparations; and that World War II was a
6 x 9 | 328 pp continuation of Germanys longstanding war aims.

Jrgen Tampke was born in 1944 in Brandenburg, Germany, and migrated
to Australia in 1964. He is the author and editor of numerous books, includ-
ing Weimar and Nazi Germany and CzechGerman Relations and the Politics of

In Search of Paul Robeson
Jeff Sparrow
A compelling biography of Paul Robeson,

a life marked by triumph and tragedy.
Written with an exhilarating combination of insight and passion . . . A neces-

sary book.A nna Funder, author of Stasiland
Paul Robeson was a prize-w inning scholar and the greatest football player of
his era, even before he ascended to global superstardom as a singer, Hollywood
actor, and activist. The son of an escaped slave, Robeson stunned audiences
with Ol Man River and Othello, as his passion for social justice led him from

Civil War to Stalins Russia.
Charismatic, eloquent, and handsome, he had everythinga nd then lost it
all for the sake of his principles.
Jeff Sparrow traces Robesons troubled life and stellar career, in a story that
traverses the arc of the twentieth century and illuminates the fissures of todays
fractured world. From Black Lives Matter to Putins United Russia, Sparrow vis-
its the places where Robeson lived and worked, exploring race in America, free- January
dom in Moscow, and the legacies of communism and fascism in Europe. 6 x 9 | 304 pp

The Memoir of a Child Sexual-Abuse Survivor Who Fought Back
Manny Waks, with Michael Visontay
A searingly honest, no-holds-barred memoir about a man who

shattered the silence about institutionalized child sexual abuse.
Manny Waks was raised in an ultra-Orthodox Jewish family, the second oldest

abusers and alerted the local Jewish communities to the international dimen-
sions of the child sexual a buse problem.

The Case Against Fragrance
Kate Grenville
A personal investigation of the science of scent, and the power of the

fragrance industry, from multi-award-winning Australian author.
Kate Grenville had always associated perfume with elegance and beautyt hen
the headaches started. Like perhaps a quarter of the population, Grenville re-
acts badly to the artificial fragrances around us: other peoples perfumes, and all
those scented cosmetics, cleaning products, and air fresheners. On a book tour
in 2015, dogged by ill health, she started wondering: Whats in fragrance? Who
tests it for safety? What does it do to people?
The more Grenville investigated, the more she felt this was a story that should
be told. The chemicals in fragrance can be linked not only to short-term prob-
lems like headaches and asthma, but to long-term ones like hormone disruption
and cancer. Yet products can be released onto the market without testing. Theyre
regulated only by the same people who make and sell them. And the ingredients
dont even have to be named on the label.
This book is based on careful research into the science of scent and the power
of the fragrance industry. But, as youd expect from an acclaimed novelist, its BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY
also accessible and personal. The Case Against Fragrance will make you seea nd September

Book by Conor McPherson;

A thrilling blend of Conor McPhersons text and Bob Dylans iconic songs.
Conor McPherson, the Irish dramatist who gave us The Weir and Shining City,
has a singular gift for making the ordinary glow with an extra dimension, like a
gentle phosphorescence waiting to be coaxed into radiance.Ben Brantley, The
New York Times
In the throes of the Great Depression, a family in Duluth, Minnesota is teeter-

ing on the edge of collapse. Each member of the family is wondering where to
turn, until one finally discovers a way out. From the widely lauded Irish drama-
tist known for his haunting tales of working class Ireland, Girl from the North
Country uses many of the most-loved songs from the repertoire of Bob Dylan,
giant of American folk music (and himself a native son of Duluth). Dylans songs
weave deftly in and out of this riveting narrative, producing a uniquely crafted

How I Learned to Drive
Paula Vogel
The first stand-alone edition of Paula Vogels

Pulitzer Prize-winning drama.
The play is steeped in a gentle lyricism we associate with nostalgic portraits of

American youth. The tone, the setting, the characters seem at first so familiar, so,
well, normal, that its only by degrees that we sense the poison within the pastels.
By then we feel both locked into, and complicit with, this portrait of a warping
relationship. Thats the art of Drive.Ben Brantley, The New York Times
Paula Vogels widely celebrated masterpiece, How I Learned to Drive, winner of

the 1998 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and many other accolades, is published here
for the first time as a stand-a lone edition. Following a disjointed timeline of the
twisted dynamics between Uncle Peck and his young niece Lil Bit, the story un-
folds through her perspective, detailing the murky transformation she under-
went. Known for its dark subject matter, the work demonstrates the result of
child abuse on identity and the discovery of strength through trauma.

Jez Butterworth
A widely anticipated new drama from the

Jez Butterworth has become the premier chronicler of the English misfit ever

British Theatre Guide
This family can take care of its own. The tagline for this searing new work from
Jez Butterworthk nown for his dark, oblique tableaus of the gritty side of British
lifeaptly sets the tone for the palpably tense and ominous story that unfolds
within. Set in 1981, Butterworths chilling new drama takes place at the height
of the Northern Ireland conflict, or The Troubles, as the period is commonly

The Penitent
David Mamet
A powerful new work from one of our most renowned playwrights.
The finest American author of his generation.Sunday Mail

[David Mamets] writing, like his life, brings an intellectual sensibility to a
working-class world. Mamet employs Aristotles rules of drama to write about
petty thieves and sleazy salesmen; he composes free verse out of grunts, sighs,
obscenities and sentence fragments. In both his stark writing style and his fas-
cination with the male tribe . . . Mamet resembles Ernest Hemingway more,
perhaps, than any writer of his generation.New York
The Penitent follows the story of an acclaimed psychiatrist who refuses to tes-
tify in court on behalf of his patienta n act that might undo everything hes
worked for. Here, David Mamet is in his wheelhousee xamining and under
mining systems of power and the impact they have on individuals caught in
their grasp. An exciting return for this playwright to the Atlantic Theater
Company, which he helped found in 1985.

Hoodwinked
Emily Mann
A documentary play that explores the impact of

radical Islam in the United States and throughout the world.
Inspired by the tragic events of the Fort Hood massacre in 2009, Emily Manns
new documentary-style play uses first-person accounts to examine the response
of a nation in a fear-d riven political climate. This unique work explores Radical
Islam and the dangers that ideology can pose not only to Western nations, but
also to moderate and traditional Muslims around the world. The experimen-
tal dramatic structure weaves together scenes inspired by real conversations,
speeches, video, and performance of primary text, and is designed to be a cata-
lyst for discussion and political action. Each performance of the play is intended
to be followed by a panel conversation exploring the themes, encouraging
thoughtful and conscientious action based on this material.
The style of the play and the following symposium are meant to create a
springboard for a range of potential discussions surrounding the world of Islam

The Science, Politics, and Greed
Behind the Gold King Mine Disaster
Jonathan P. Thompson
An award-winning investigative journalist digs up the

real story behind the Gold King Mine disaster of 2015.
Award-winning investigative environmental journalist Jonathan P. Thompson

digs into the science, politics, and greed behind the 2015 Gold King Mine disas-
ter, and unearths a litany of impacts wrought by a century and a half of mining,
energy development, and fracking in southwestern Colorado. Amid these harsh re-
alities, Thompson explores how a new generation is setting out to make amends.
As shocking and heartbreaking as the Gold King spill and its aftermath may be, its
merely the tip of the proverbial iceberg. The disaster itself was the climax of the long
and troubled story of the Gold King mine, staked by a Swedish immigrant back in
1887. And it was only the most visible manifestation of a slow-moving, multi-faceted
environmental catastrophe that had been unfolding here long before the events of
August 5, 2015.
Jonathan Thompson is a native Westerner with deep roots in southwestern POLITICAL SCIENCE

Stony Mesa Sagas
Chip Ward
Pursued by an assassin after their arrest for environmental protest, a

young couple flees to remote Southwest village Stony Mesa.
Pursued by a mad assassin after their arrest for chaining themselves to a min-
ing site gate, Luna Waxwing and Hip Hop Hopi seek refuge in the remote village
of Stony Mesa. Immersed in the diverse cultures and conflicts of the contempo-
rary West, the young couple struggles to understand the wild lands that surround
them, while trying to understand one another.
There are many versions of how that Fourth of July celebration in Stony Mesa, now
known as the Apple Days Riot, unraveled but all agree that it started when Otis
Dooley hit Bo Hineyman square in the back with a fresh horse turd. Splat! And the
rest is history.
After living for four years in the wilderness, Chip Ward moved to the edge of
an environmental sacrifice zone, where he organized and led several campaigns
to make polluters accountable. He cofounded HEAL Utah and served on the
FICTION board of the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance for several years. Starting as a

Swallowing Mercury
Wioletta Greg
Translated by Eliza Marciniak
Longlisted for the 2017 Man Booker International Prize, this celebrated
debut animates the wonders of childhood in rural Poland.
Enchantingly elliptical fiction debut that sparkles with a gem-like quality.

Shines with a surreal and unsettling vigour. As an award-w inning poet, Greg
writes with a lyricism that brings alive the charms and dangers of Wiolas life.
The Financial Times
Both magical and sinister, a memoir and a fairy tale and, like Wiola, completely
captivating.The Irish News
While political change hums in the background, Wiola looks back on her youth
in a close-k nit agricultural community in 1980s Poland: the superstitions of the
village women, rumored visits from the Pope, and the locked room in the dress-
makers house. In prose that sparkles with a poets touch, Wioletta Gregs debut
animates the strange wonders of growing up. FICTION

Carlos Yushimito
Translated by Valerie Miles
A long-anticipated debut announces the arrival of

one of the most exciting new voices in Latin America.
Carlos Yushimito is one of the few writers in Latin American literature today
creating new ways to look at the world.Yuri Herrera, author of Signs Preceding
the End of the World
A mascot for an electronics store dreams of making it in the drug world of Rio de
Janeiro. A tin man ponders the mysteries of death as a heart starts to take charge
of his limbs, while in a place not so far away a boy tries to play the piano like
Margarita, the teachers cruel and beautiful niece. In stories filled with violence
and tenderness, love and disconnection, Carlos Yushimitos long-a nticipated
debut explores the subtle space of estrangement.

The Right Intention
Andrs Barba
Translated by Lisa Dillman
Four linked novellas from the celebrated

Spanish author of Such Small Hands.
Andrs Barba needs no advice. He has already created a world that is per-
fectly realized and has a craft that is inappropriate for a writer of his age.
Mario Vargas Llosa, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature
Nothing is simple for the men and women in Andrs Barbas stories. As they go
about their lives, they are each tested by a single, destructive obsession. A runner
puts his marriage at risk while training for a marathon; a teenager can no longer
stand the sight of meat following her parents divorce; a man suddenly fixates
on the age difference between him and his younger male lover. In four tightly
wound novellas, Andrs Barba establishes himself as a master of the form.
Andrs Barba is the one the most lauded contemporary Spanish writers. He is
the author of twelve books, including August, October and Rain Over Madrid. In
addition to literary fiction, he has written essays, poems, books of photography, FICTION
and translations of Thomas De Quincey and Herman Melville. His books have February
been translated into ten languages. 5 x 8 | 231 pp

Portraits and Revelations
Joseph Keckler
Witty musings, vivid imaginings, and sketches

of the performing artist and his circle.
Joseph Kecklers signatures are his magnificent three-plus octave operatic voice
and the mesmerizing stories he tells. Combining original pieces with material
from his acclaimed performances, Keckler confirms his storytelling mastery,
revealing still more of himself on the page.
In these tales, one cant easily draw a line between reality, embellishment,
and fantasy. Odd jobs and odder employers: what is it like to work for a blind
man who runs an art gallery? Or for an aging club kid who administers a uni-
versity classics department? These outr characters make an artful spectacle of
daily life. Some strive to be center stage and others struggle to be seen, but all
soldier on in the margins. In this world, you may board a familiar bus or train
and find yourself in some shady netherworld, or skipping past midnight on New
Years Eve. There is sex with ghosts. And the incessant GPS voice that mocks

Swinging on a Star
David Trinidad
Fame, ambition, idols, spirituality, and death. David Trinidad seamlessly

blends his obsessions into lucid, inventive, indelible poems.
This three-part collection by the beloved, award-w inning poet looks at mortal-
ity, celebrity, pop culture, poetry, dreams, and otherworldliness in often disarm-
ing ways.
Bedrock at Night (think The Flintstones) is the title poem of the first section,

Under the Sea
Mark Leidner
The brilliance and chops of George Saunders,

sans the twee and a little darker.
A collection of stories that focus on love, lost love, death, the absurdity of the
human condition, relationships, and beauty. There is also a story about insects
that is more human than most D.H. Lawrence. Mark Leidners fiction is deeply
infused with poetry, but never turns purple.
Lets see how merciful you really are, she mutters to God, then with a shaky hands
she points the gun at her own chest and pulls the trigger. The blast spins her around
twice and she falls limp crossways over the soldier, gushing blood all over his body
from a hole over her heart. The impact of her fall, however, wakes the man from his
unconscious slumber. He sees her face tilted just above his. He looks up into her
eyes. Her eyes grow wide. Shes ecstatic that hes alive, but horrified that shes about
to die. He tries to mouth something, but he cant because shes crushing his lungs.
She tries to roll off of him, but shes lost so much blood that shes too weak to roll
very far, and she only rolls a few inches. The wound on her heart is bleeding onto his FICTION
face. Hes blinking and choking on her blood while despairing, not at his own pain, October

The Deaths of Henry King
Brian Evenson, Jesse Ball, and Lilli Carr
There are so many ways to die, thought Henry King,

and nearly as many ways to live.
In The Deaths of Henry King, the hapless Henry King, as advertised, dies. Not
just once or even twice, but seven dozen times, each death making way for a
new demise, moving from the comic to the grim to the absurd to the transcen-
dent and back again. With text by Jesse Ball and Brian Evenson complimented
by Lilli Carrs macabre, gravestone-r ubbing-style art, Henry Kings ends are
brought to a vividly absurd life.
Brian Evenson is the author of a dozen books of fiction, most recently the
story collection Windeye and the novel Immobility (both finalists for a Shirley
Jackson Award). His novel Last Days won the ALAs RUSA award for Best
Horror Novel of 2009. His novel The Open Curtain was a finalist for an Edgar
Award and an International Horror Guild Award. He lives in Providence, RI,
where he teaches in Brown Universitys literary arts department.

Kevin Czap
A kaleidoscopic, utopian vision of race, gender, and sexuality

mixing in a stylish and hopefulif imperfectfuture.
Czaps Magic Future Cleveland is hyper-d iverse. People of color are the major-
ity in this world. Theres every body type. Gender presentation is all over the map.
The body hair situation is impressive. Its a physical world, of flesh and blood.
And unlike the kind of happy imagery that slides into kitsch, not everyone here
is smiling all the time. Czaps characters yell and sweat, they speak honestly and
openly. They cry a lot, usually with joy, but real hot tears. Their joy isnt easy, and
that makes it familiar.Eleanor Davis, The Comics Journal
What if the future began in a small, queer, punk music show in the basement
of a Cleveland, Ohio, house? Romantic friendships, berchic culture, magic al
solutions, kid think-tanks, and more make up Kevin Czaps vision of not-so-
distant America. Ftchi Perf might not depict a perfect future, but its slice-of-

Malachi Jenkins, Roberto Smith, and Kathy Iandoli
Two rival gang members from Los Angeles tell their story of making
their infamous pop-up restaurant a place for peace and good food.
When two former members of Los Angeles most nefarious rival gangs decided
to unite under one oven, they had no idea that they would be creating an empire.
Trap Kitchen is more than just a cookbook. Its a glimpse into the meals that have
now become famous in the LA streets thanks to the series of pop-up restaurants
that continue to bloom throughout the area. Celebrities and residents alike flock
to the locations for soulful meals, but its more than that. Having lost friends
and family to violence, we learn how the masterminds behind Trap Kitchen
sought to change the paths they were on, using cooking as their driving force.
While other cookbooks may boast a level of urban-skewed appeal in their real-
ness, this cookbook also delves into the stories of why they became involved in
cooking in the first place. Its both a heartfelt and fulfilling experience to learn
how two men changed their lives by seeking out peace and good food for them-
selves and their community.

and folk songs. Another survivor, Meg, has taken refuge in the hills of Vermont.
She too is the victim of near absolute amnesia. The few things she can recall are

called John is reveling in the fallout of chaos that accompanies the strike, and is
calling for Judgement Day against sinners while all around him civilization burns.
This is the final battle. Alfie and Meg dont know it, but they have a grim des-

shield them. Can they build a New Jerusalem from the ruins of the White House?

In the Still of the Night
Dara Wier
Arrestingly direct and emotionally sophisticated poems
of mourning, loss, and absence.
Wier is a poet concerned with capturing the fluidity of thought and experience
and not diminishing its forward charge in doing so. Wiers lines have always had
a wild whitewater crash to them, overwhelming any vessel she pours them into.
Boston Globe
Thats how one human leaves us ends the first poem of Dara Wiers direct and
powerful new collection, a raw and fluid exploration of grief. Wier records her
thoughts with intelligence, clarity, honesty, and immediacy, showing us the
unraveling of her world and her new consciousness after a great loss.

There You Are
Interviews, Journals, and Ephemera
Joanne Kyger
Edited by Cedar Sigo
An oral history of a poet who intersected with nearly every

innovative poetic movement of the late twentieth century.
The inaugural book of Waves new interview series, There You Are combines forty
years of interviews, letters, poems, and journals to present a narrative of the
remarkable poet Joanne Kyger, who intersected with the most influential move-
ments of late twentieth-century poetry yet remained rooted in her daily practice
with a forthright attention to the present moment.
One of the major poets of the San Francisco Renaissance, Joanne Kyger (1934
2017) was born in Vallejo, CA. After studying at the University of California,
Santa Barbara, she moved to San Francisco in 1957, where she became a member
of the circle of poets centered around Jack Spicer and Robert Duncan. In 1960, she
joined Gary Snyder in Japan, and soon traveled to India with Allen Ginsberg and
Peter Orlovsky. She returned to California in 1964 and published her first book,

Olivers dream of an open language, which mixes the cadences and inflections
of his Andalusian roots with the inventive possibilities of German, reminds us
that foreignness is our true condition. He bridges ethnic and non-ethnic German
in sandscript, which explores some of the same broken terrain mapped by another
brave traveler in the language, Paul Celan, and what he encounters line by line is
a self that is at once foreign and familiar: my poem my word. Here is the work
of a man who is German and still not German, Spanish and still not Spanish, on

Translated by Amber Kim
No One Checks the Time When Theyre Happy is a collection of stories, by turns

Eun Heeyungs characters are misfits who, by virtue of their bodies or their lack
of social status, are left to dream of momentous changes that will never come.
Unsatisfied with work, with family, and with friends, they lose themselves in
diets, books, and blogs. Her work humorously but humanely depicts the loneli-

Sangharakshita
Sangharakshitas far-reaching contribution

to the Buddhist conversion movement in India, begun by
great Indian statesman and reformer, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar.
One of the most far-reaching of Sangharakshitas contributions to modern

Buddhism was giving shape to the Buddhist conversion movement begun by the
great Indian statesman and reformer, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar. In 1956, along with
hundreds of thousands of his followers, Ambedkar renounced the Hindu caste
systemaccording to which they were condemned to be untouchablea nd
converted to Buddhism, thus beginning a new life.
The first part of this volume tells the story of how Ambedkar overcame the
suffering and struggle of his early years to become the shaper of the Indian consti
tution and the leader of his people to a new life; also how, following Ambedkars
untimely death, Sangharakshita took on the challenge of teaching Buddhism to
the new community of Buddhists.

Memoirs of an English Buddhist
Sangharakshita
Full of fascinating characters and insights, this is a remarkable and

refreshingly candid record of a journey of spiritual exploration.
A vivid picture of the people, the places, and the experiences that shaped
Sangharakshitas life.
Sangharakshita read the Diamond Sutra for the first time the summer he
turned seventeen. It seemed to awaken him to something whose existence he
had forgotten, and he joyfully embraced those profound teachings with an un
qualified acceptance. This experience decided the whole future direction of
his life.
In this first volume of memoirs he describes how, from a working-class child
hood in the London suburb of Tooting, he came, a twenty-four-year-old Buddhist
novice monk, to Kalimpong in the eastern Himalayas.
Sangharakshita paints a vivid picture of the people, the places, and the expe
riences that shaped his life: his childhood, his army days, and the gurus he met
during his years as a wandering ascetic staying in the caves and ashrams of India.

Once upon a time there was a rich old man who lived in a vast mansion . . .
Aware that whatever our age, we never lose our responsiveness to story, myth,
