Where the Dead Sit Talking
2018 NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FICTION FINALIST Set in rural Oklahoma during the late 1980s, Where the Dead Sit Talking is a stunning and lyrical Native American coming-of-age story. With his single mother in jail, Sequoyah, a fifteen-year-old Cherokee boy, is placed in foster care with the Troutt family. Literally and figuratively scarred by his mother’s years of substance abuse, Sequoyah keeps mostly to himself, living with his emotions pressed deep below the surface. At least until he meets seventeen-year-old Rosemary, a troubled artist who also lives with the family. Sequoyah and Rosemary bond over their shared Native American background and tumultuous paths through the foster care system, but as Sequoyah’s feelings toward Rosemary deepen, the precariousness of their lives and the scars of their pasts threaten to undo them both.

Desolation of Avenues Untold
LOST CHAPLIN FILMS DISCOVERED Los Angeles -A private collection of films involving the famous actor Charlie Chaplin was uncovered on Monday, according to numerous sources. A reel of Chaplin's private home films, including a sexual encounter containing over 30 minutes of footage, had been stored for many years in Switzerland in the basement of Anton Bon Scott, a former friend of Chaplin's. The acclaimed actor evidently kept private films of his sexual encounters throughout his life and asked Mr. Scott to preserve them after Chaplin's death. The private reel is the only film unseen by anyone other than Chaplin and perhaps a few others. "They're somewhere in the middle of nowhere," sources state. "They're in Texas, I think. They're not here in L.A." Film historians have described the discovery as "priceless."

The Coercive Control of Children
"This book identifies coercive control of women as the most important cause and context of 'child abuse' and child homicide outside a war zone, including deliberate injury to children, non- accidental child death and the sexual abuse, denigration, exploitation, isolation and subordination of children. I critique the current approaches to domestic violence and child maltreatment, provide a working model of the coercive control of children and closely examine three recent forensic cases involving of children of coercive control. In most instances, the coercive control of women and children run in tandem. In these cases, children are abused to further entrap and exploit their mother, a form of 'secondary' victimization. But I also provide examples of cases in which abused mothers harm their children to survive or to protect them from worse (examples, of what I term "patriarchal mothering") and where children are 'weaponized' or are otherwise implicated in the coercive control of their mother. In all these instances, the child is the victim of coercive control"--
