Heartbeat of the Marru

Abby, Seth, and Frances are teenagers bound by a shared tragedy—a deadly act of environmental protest in their coastal community of Scallop Bay. All three are searching for resolution to their grief. Eighteen months after the bombing that claimed her parents, her grandmother, and her sight, Abby makes an astonishing discovery on the beach—a giant Wandering Albatross has come ashore.

Daughters of Light

Of the Angels Ruth Langford is sure of three things. First, that angels and demons walk the streets of Earth, masquerading themselves as humans and calling themselves Celestials. Second, that the last five years of her life were a blissful dream her mind made up while locked in a coma. And third, that everything else she thought she knew was a lie. As the financial crash of the 1930s looms over her beloved San Francisco city, a rich husband and the birth of a promising career as a ballet dancer should be all she needs. But Ruth can't shake the feeling that something is not quite right with the world around her. Her search for answers reveals truths she'd rather not know. It's only a matter of time before she must confront the darkness of the world around her--and within herself.

The Sensitives

A compelling exploration of the mysteries of environmental toxicity and the community of “sensitives”—people with powerful, puzzling symptoms resulting from exposure to chemicals, fragrances, and cell phone signals, that have no effect on “normals.” They call themselves “sensitives.” Over fifty million Americans endure a mysterious environmental illness that renders them allergic to chemicals. Innocuous staples from deodorant to garbage bags wreak havoc on sensitives. For them, the enemy is modernity itself. No one is born with EI. It often starts with a single toxic exposure. Then the symptoms hit: extreme fatigue, brain fog, muscle aches, inability to tolerate certain foods. ...

Despite all the assertions towards the end of the twentieth century that the literary subject had expired along with the author, the wave of autobiographies published in German after the Wende was a clear indication that, on the contrary, life stories were very much alive. In this study, Owen Evans examines the work of eight authors – Ludwig Harig, Uwe Saeger, Ruth Klüger, Günter de Bruyn, Günter Kunert, Christoph Hein, Grete Weil and Monika Maron – who all published personal texts after 1989 dealing either with life in Nazi Germany or the GDR, and in some cases both. By means of close textual analysis, Evans explores the impact these regimes had on the individuals concerned and the c...

The Dollar

Originally published in Argentina in 2019 and now finally available in English, Luzzi and Wilkis's acclaimed book traces the history of the economic, social, and political relevance of the dollar in Argentina and its popularization over the years. How did the dollar come to play such a leading role in Argentina's national existence? How and why did this global currency become a local currency on the other end of the Western hemisphere? Through the reconstruction of the social and cultural history of the US dollar in Argentina, Luzzi and Wilkis provide original insight into this sidebar of the dollar's history, showing how it became a "local" currency even outside its country of origin.

Vahşi Hafiyeler

Canın sıkkın olduğunda okunacak kitaplar var. Hem de pek çok. Sakin olduğun zamanlar için de bir edebiyat var. Bence bu tür en güzeli. Bir de hüzünlü olduğun zamanlar için bir edebiyat. Ve neşeli olduğun zamanlar için bir başka edebiyat. Bilgiye susadığın zamanlar için de bir edebiyat var. Ve umutsuz olduğun zamanlar için de ayrı bir edebiyat var. Ulises Lima ile Belano’nun üretmek istedikleri edebiyat işte bu sonuncu türden bir edebiyattı. 1975’in son gününde “damardan gerçekçilik” akımının kurucuları Arturo Belano ile Ulises Lima ödünç aldıkları bir arabayla Meksika’dan ayrılırlar. Amaçları, uzun yıllar önce Sonora Çölü’nde kay...
