In despair, she retreats to her favourite haunt, Pere Lachaise cemetery, where help appears from an unexpected quarter ... playfulness of first love, the despair of loss and the irreverent wisdom of some of the most creative spirits ever to have lived.

Heather's Journey
Nineteen-year-old Heather Randolph dreams of going elsewhere, and she can't be still in the midst of an unsteady 1930 United States. Residing in her beloved hometown of Sterling, Illinois, Heather desires to go to her family roots in Savannah, Georgia. An abrupt tragedy misaligns her dreams, and she's stuck in the middle of a handsome and debonair Puerto Rican bootlegger and her sassy and loud 12-year-old sister, all while trying to escape the grips of an abusive mother and the law. See and fall in love with 1930; it's so much life -- the Depression, the Prohibition, racism, romance, and the lingering aftermaths of World War I, all within the eyes of Heather Randolph.

With this critically, historicist approach in mind, t...
Lessons from Plants
An exploration of how plant behavior and adaptation offer valuable insights for human thriving. We know that plants are important. They maintain the atmosphere by absorbing carbon dioxide and producing oxygen. They nourish other living organisms and supply psychological benefits to humans as well, improving our moods and beautifying the landscape around us. But plants don’t just passively provide. They also take action. Beronda L. Montgomery explores the vigorous, creative lives of organisms often treated as static and predictable. In fact, plants are masters of adaptation. They “know” what and who they are, and they use this knowledge to make a way in the world. Plants experience a ki...
