A Long Winter
Frozen bodies appeared on a porch, in a garage, in a shed of snowbirds away in winter. Wildlife had at the first set; the porch door was not secure. But the bones suggested a story. The next victims were untouched by vermin, and their wallets were still in their pockets. Their IDs illuminated the story. The victims shared a family resemblance. This was an uncommon one, and, in the town in which the victims were found, new. The deceased were distinctively bulky and strong. Two of them stared from ID photos with the same gray eyes. It appeared that a family was being wiped out, and that the family violated everyone's notion of demographics. Pretty soon it became clear that the problem was olde...

Privacy and Its Invasion
Privacy. We want lots of it for ourselves. We love to invade the privacy of others. We are willing to trade it for benefits of all kinds, including credit, social services, and friendship. Why is this? Where should we draw a line? How should we handle our ambivalence in an era in which privacy often appears to be under official attack? This book explores such questions by rooting into scarce literature to explain why privacy is such a strong need, reviewing a variety of methods for guarding privacy, and concluding that at one time America was a very fortunate place privacy-wise. McLean examines problem areas in which privacy invasions play, or have played, large roles. Rape and sexual offens...
Organs
A successful banker must have more wealth -- for his peace of mind. He drifts into the international black market in human organs. Then he devises a new illegal enterprise on the fringes of this. Equally compulsive about philandering, he makes a few too many enemies. Although the pivot of this story, he does not dominate it. There also are his wife and her detectives, his girlfriend, irate husbands, his brother, his partners in crime, his only real friend, and international investigators. Of them all, he is the most consistently charming, the most entrepreneurial, and the most obsessed. Someone else, though, has persistence -- and an itch. The hare and the tortoise, redux, but not quite .

Fearless Femininity by Women in American Theatre, 1910s to 2010s
In this unprecedented, fascinating book which covers women in theatre from the 1910s to the 2010s, author Lynne Greeley notes that, for the purposes of this study, "feminism" is defined as the political impulse toward economic and social empowerment for females or the female-identified, a position perceived by many feminists as oppositional to ideas of femininity that they see as personally and politically constraining and that "femininity" comprises social behaviors and practices that mean as "many different things as there are women," some of which are empowering and others of which are not. This book illuminates how throughout the twentieth century and into the twenty-first, playwrights a...
