Sin Eater
'Sin Eater' is William Reichard's fourth collection of poetry and is the shadow companion to his third, 'This Brightness' (Mid-List Press 2007). Reichard began 'Sin Eater' as he was writing 'This Brightness,' finding that as he explored the multiple literal and metaphorical permutations of light, the shadow's afterimage became visible. The poems of 'Sin Eater' are similar to photographic double images one positive, the other negative. Every love poem has aspects of hate, every war poem holds in its core the seed of peace. The overriding theme is one of finding balance in our lives between public brightness and private shadow.The title of the book comes from a funeral rite. Practiced in Engla...

Cihlar's commentary of individual films-as well as human identity and desire-are intense, smart, and right on target"--

This collection of thoughtful, courageous, and honest essays explores the intersections of class background, social status, and "queerness," challenging the often narrow and rigid definition of gay and lesbian community. Queerly Classed highlights the voices of those whose experiences of class-combined with race, ethnicity, gender, ability, and age to explode stereotypes of queers aspiring to assimilate into the mainstream of the American middle class.
The Myth of Political Correctness
The classics of Western culture are out, not being taught, replaced by second-rate and Third World texts. White males are a victimized minority on campuses across the country, thanks to affirmative action. Speech codes have silenced anyone who won't toe the liberal line. Feminists, wielding their brand of sexual correctness, have taken over. These are among the prevalent myths about higher education that John K. Wilson explodes. The phrase "political correctness" is on everyone's lips, on radio and television, and in newspapers and magazines. The phenomenon itself, however, has been deceptively described. Wilson steps into the nation's favorite cultural fray to reveal that many of the most w...
