Greenhorns
From celebrated writer/historian Richard Slotkin, a cycle of stories that reads like David Bezmozgis mixed with Frank McCourt. A kosher butcher with gambling problems; a woman whose elegant persona conceals unspeakable horror; a Jewish Pygmalion who turns a wretched orphan into a "real American girl"; a boy who clings to his father's old-world code of honor on the mean streets of Brooklyn; the "little man who wasn't there," whose absence reflects his family's inability to deal with its memories--these tales of early 20th-century Jewish immigration blur memoir and fiction, recovering the violent circumstances, the emotional costs of uprooting that left people uncertain of their place in America and shaped the lives of their American descendants.

STRAYS
Mat’s plan, obtain a PhD, the union card needed to do research, find a cure for cancer, then humbly accept his Nobel Prize. However, circumstances profoundly influenced this plan. After losing his funding in cancer research as a result of political infighting, Mat took a position in the blossoming field of toxicology, an outgrowth of the fears surrounding synthetic chemicals. Although successful in this area, Mat found it difficult to accept that synthetic chemicals or pharmaceuticals were responsible for most human cancers and birth defects. Along the way, he became involved with reproductive and other health problems in dogs and other domestic animals. Determining the cause of these problems led to difficulties with the powers-that-be and loss of his job.
