You are Not Dead
Poetry. Asian American Studies. "In YOU ARE NOT DEAD Wendy Xu breaks all the old rules that have never done us any favors anyway. She writes beautifully, noticing who we are, and letting us see ourselves with a little more humanity, a little more humor, a little more humility. I'm happy to have read this book." James Tate "There's a wild and wondrous poet plundering-through our lives, collecting the oddest and most significant things, turning our thoughts toward things we couldn't have known before she turned us toward them. YOU ARE NOT DEAD is precisely how this book can get you to feel and that is an almost otherworldly power. The poet who imagines and builds these poems is irresistible." Dara Wier "That fluctuating space between the temporary and the infinite is an erogenous zone made all the more enticing when articulated so eloquently. 'We have a lifespan and O how we live it out.' Wendy Xu's poems posit for us a future, a presence, a body resistant to the ravages of time. Mortality is a far planet. Here in Xu's work, we are passionately, and gratefully, alive." D. A. Powell"

Former insider turned critic Wendy Liu busts the myths of the tech industry, and offers a galvanising argument for why and how we must reclaim technology's potential for the public good. "Lucid, probing and urgent. Wendy Liu manages to be both optimistic about the emancipatory potential of tech and scathing about the industry that has harnessed it for bleak and self-serving ends." -- Naomi Klein, author of On Fire: The Burning Case for a Green New Deal "An inspiring memoir manifesto...Technologists all over ...

Increase patronage with effective outreach strategies!From the Introduction, by Wendi Arant and Pixie Anne Mosley: “Outreach is a concept that is gaining more and more significance for libraries, particularly with the recent developments in information technology. Dictionaries define it as 'the act of extending services, benefits, etc. to a wider section of the population.’This definition also implies a mission to communicate a particular message to an audience in order to gain their support.

Wendy, Master of Art

What is the post-Jungian object as symbol? Will she ever ...
Wendy's Angel
Wendy feels abandoned and alone in a cold northeastern college town surrounded by the untroubled youth of her generation. She has escaped the bleak existence of her past caring for a father wallowing in alcoholism and self-pity, but she shares nothing in common with the carefree crowd around her. Finally convinced that her abdominal pain is the cancer that stole her beloved mother, she seeks aid and solace at the Emergency Room. Despair compounds Wendys depression when she discovers that she is carrying a child. Guilt wracks her as she struggles with her infidelities, and shame humbles her before the handsome young intern so anxious to help her. Teetering on the edge of a high cliff of helplessness, grace rescues her in the coincidence of the young intern and the miracle of the animate child within her. The faith she learns to embrace from the unborn blessing in her womb propels her from an existence of desperation to a life of unforeseen joy and promise.
The Admirable Crichton ; Peter Pan ; When Wendy Grew Up ; What Every Woman Knows ; Mary Rose
For some 20 years at the beginning of the century J. M. Barrie enjoyed enormous commercial success with a wide variety of plays, but he is best known for Peter Pan. It retains its popularity today, both in the original and in adaptations. As well as being the author of the greatest of all children's plays Barrie also wrote sophisticated social comedy and political satire, much of it now newly topical. The Admirable Crichton and What Every Woman Knows are shrewd and entertaining contributions to the politics of class and gender, while Mary Rose is one of the best ghost stories written for the stage. Under the General Editorship of Michael Cordner of the University of York, the texts of the plays have been newly edited and are supplemented with a scholarly introduction and detailed annotation.
