Hello and welcome to our look at some new releases at the Johnson County Library! Each month we look at five fiction titles making their debut that we think you should know about. You might not find these books on the bestseller lists, but that's okay, as we love putting the spotlight on books you might not have heard about. Give one - or more - of these titles a chance to make it in your hold list. We hope you find something new!
Karen Thompson Walker is one of those authors who doesn't release a lot of books, or release them very often, but when she does, it’s always a good idea to sit up and take notice. Her latest is called THE DREAMERS, and it’s a stunning piece of literary fiction that is a must for your book club. The novel is set in a small college town in California, where a young student falls asleep after a night partying with her classmates - and doesn’t wake up. Soon more students succumb to the - virus? plague? pandemic? - that quickly sweeps through campus and then into the town itself, which is sealed off from the rest of the world by the authorities. But this is no “World War Z” style thriller - Thompson writes about the interior lives of the students and residents who are caught up in this slow-motion apocalypse, digging into the lives of characters who love, mature, fear for their future, and, of course, dream. Beautifully written, insightful, and stunning, this is perfect for those who liked her previous novel, THE AGE OF MIRACLES, and to authors like Emily St. John Mandel and Louise Erdrich.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that there are at least a hundred books on library shelves that are some version of Jane Austen’s PRIDE & PREJUDICE. One even features zombies! The latest to hit the shelves (and most definitely DOES NOT have any zombies) is UNMARRIAGEABLE by Soniah Kamal, set in modern-day Pakistan. Kamal takes the Jane Austen framework, updates it, and immerses it in another culture while adding Kamal’s dry wit, wordplay, and character work. Don’t mistake this for a carbon-copy knockoff, however: this stands alone as a charming, dazzling novel that both feels familiar and also gives the reader something new - a look at Pakistani customs, social norms, and family and courtship dynamics that can differ a bit from the 19th century British original. This is a book to savor, enjoy, and leave you with a smile on your face and is absolutely well worth seeking out.
With novels like LILLIAN BOXFISH TAKES A WALK and A MAN CALLED OVE, stories of grumpy older folks looking back to review their lives, is almost its own genre at this point. Sofia Lundberg’s THE RED ADDRESS BOOK neatly fits into this genre and is a charming and witty book. The title refers to the address book that belongs to Doris, a 96-year-old Swedish woman, originally given to her by her father. She recorded the names and addresses of most everyone she’s ever met and now thumbs through the book as she recovers from an accident in a hospital, relating her life story to her American grandniece, Jenny. We trace Doris’ story from working as a servant girl in a wealthy household to the runways of Paris to fleeing Europe on the eve of World War 2 and up to the present day. Sweeping, poignant, and emotionally charged, Lundberg’s novel is laced with both joy and sadness. (After finishing this novel, you might run out to buy your own physical address book - a novel based on going though your Facebook Friends List doesn’t quite have the same feel.)
Seanan McGuire’s “Wayward Children” series is an absolute delight for those of us who read “The Chronicles of Narnia” when we were younger and sometimes still check the back of the clothes closet to see if any secret passageways to magical worlds might be waiting for us. McGuire’s series takes that concept and runs with it, and each novel is a marvel of magical realism and fantasy. Better still, each novel in the series is a standalone, so it’s not necessarily required to read the series in order. Here, IN AN ABSENT DREAM features Lundy, a very serious young girl who has all her life meticulously planned out for her by her parents - and that life decidedly does not include interesting things like adventures. So she finds her way to a magical realm called the Goblin Market, where everything is negotiated and bargained for, and where you always have to pay your debts. She finds friends, magic and adventure, but those things do come at a price, and sometimes at a price Lundy isn’t prepared to pay. McGuire’s writing is at times wistful, intoxicating, and knowing, and each of her novels (this is the fourth in this series - she has others) are things of wonder and delight.
Psychological thrillers show no sign of slowing down in 2019. Titles from the genre dominate the bestseller lists even though they’ve only been around for less than a decade. (Gillian Flynn’s GONE GIRL, arguably the novel that kicked off the modern trend, was published only seven years ago.) An early nomination for the year’s standout title is AN ANONYMOUS GIRL written by the tag team of Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen, authors of last year’s also excellent THE WIFE BETWEEN US. Here, the focus is on a makeup artist who is looking to make a few extra bucks by answering questions for a case study on ethics and morality given by a college professor. Finding herself to be an ideal candidate, she gets drawn in further into the study and into the life of its creator, Dr. Shields. Alternating from points of view between the two, the novel ratchets up the tension as the study veers into some dark corners as the novel goes from fairly conventional to OH MY GOD WHAT JUST HAPPENED within just a few chapters. Go ahead and block off a few hours after your usual bedtime, as you’ll be reading this one deep into the night.
Thank you for joining us as we look at some of this month's new releases! Be sure to rate and comment on items you like in the catalog, and be sure to ask your friendly neighborhood library staff what they think you'd like.


Lily is using some of the level 6-8 Moving Beyond the Page curriculum this year, and there we came across the book Africa is Not a Country. I just have to take a moment to rave here. Lily is my third to be doing the whole exploring the geography of the continents and learning about different cultures thing that pretty much every curriculum includes in the early years. It is important, but I have always been kind of "meh" on most of the books we have encountered over the years. They are either not detailed enough but interesting (thinking more fiction) or very detailed but very dry reading for the early years. With that, I was very very pleasantly surprised to see this one.
The illustrations are drawn rather than photos but detailed. The front has a string of kids holding various flags of the countries within Africa. It has a map of Africa in the front with all the countries labeled, but it does break it down into more manageable pieces for the elementary imagination. Example: "If you drew a picture of Africa's landscapes on a large pie and cut it into ten equal pieces, only one pieces would contain all of its rain forests. Four pieces would represent the deserts ...." This is something a kid can understand.
Following this, each 2-page spread shows a nice illustration of a family and some about that family in narrative style. The cultural information is nicely included into the text with the focus being on the children described and not the list of details, i.e., "The boys kiss their parents' hands and respond 'Yekenielai,' which means 'thank-you' in Tigrinya, a widely spoken language in Eritrea." In the sense that each page turn encompasses a different region, it reads similar to Children Just Like Me by DK Publishing. That, by the way, is our second favorite for teaching about world cultures to children.
Africa is not a country though is (obviously!) just about Africa unlike the DK book, and it is much much less dense. I think for my family the DK book is better for 3-6th grades, child the Africa Is Not a Country book is suitable for the younger set, down into pre-K. The back does contain a summary of each country with population, capital and so forth for reference, but the focus is really reading it aloud for youngers. Lily really really loved this one for learning. The prior study was Asia, and we did use Exploring Asia by Kalman, but as mentioned above it was data dense and a little dry though still good. This one on Africa though really stands out among the crowd for interest in the youngest students so I had to put that out there!


There are few modern writers as divisive as Chuck Palahniuk. His minimalist, repetitive style and bleak, amoral universes can be tough to enjoy; he’s admitted to purposefully twisting his prose to make it more difficult for readers to digest. Throw a book across a crowded room and you’re as likely to hit someone who hates Palahniuk as you are to hit a passionate fan.
If you’re not sure which of those categories you fall into because you haven’t actually read any of Palahniuk’s work, don’t despair. At least, don’t despair until you actually read his work. Palahniuk is as prolific as he is difficult to love, and even those who regard him as an underrated artist and a powerful postmodern literary force might admit that not all of his books are equally great. Narrowing down his bibliography is a necessity if you’re going to dive in, so here are the 10 best Chuck Palahniuk books to check out.
1. Fight Club
Thanks to the successful 1999 film adaptation, everyone has heard of Fight Club. It’s Palahniuk’s best to date, combining razor-sharp satire of modern society with an assured style that uses repetition and minimalism to great effect. The story of a troubled, unnamed narrator who becomes involved with underground, bare-knuckle fighting clubs and their charismatic leader, Tyler Durden, Fight Club pulls off a great twist without really being about the twist. What it’s really about is toxic masculinity and the corrosive psychological effects of a decadent society, themes it explores with merciless black humor. If you’re wondering if you’ll enjoy Palahniuk’s work, this is your litmus test.
When a novelist begins a story with a man dictating into the Black Box of a crashing airliner, he’s establishing certain expectations in the reader. The story has to justify that kind of bombastic, almost comically epic scenario, and Palahniuk succeeds as long as the reader catches on to the joke. The man in the cockpit is Tender Branson, the last survivor of a cult called the Creedists whose members worked as domestic servants before a federal raid prompted a mass suicide. Palahniuk counts down to both the crash and the revelation of what the Creedists’ true intentions are, resulting in a tense, page-turning read.
Palahniuk’s writing is disturbing because he explores the worst of us — the petty, terrified parts that we avoid. Lullaby zooms in to an uncomfortable degree as a journalist working on a story about Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) stumbles upon a nursery rhyme that kills anyone who hears it. Initially horrified, the reporter attempts to destroy all extant copies of the rhyme, but soon the power to destroy anyone who even slightly irritates him takes control. Like a Blumhouse film, it’s a ridiculous premise that Palahniuk handles with funereal seriousness and ink-black humor.
Short fiction proves ideal for Palahniuk’s style and skill set. He obviously enjoys drilling into a single point of misery . Sometimes in his longer fiction, his plot feels superfluous because of his delight in scraping through the terrible things he discovers, but in his shorter work, the electric vibe of Palahniuk’s enthusiasm has less time to wander and waver. Make Something Up is a collection of stories that explore the sort of themes you’d expect — self-abuse, sexual kinks, shame and loathing — but with razor-sharp prose and brevity that guarantees you’re never trapped in one of Palahniuk’s morbid settings for too long. If you’re wondering if you’d enjoy a Palahniuk novel, dip your toe into these short stories.
One frequent knock against Palahniuk is that he repeats the same trick over and over again: Take a weird premise, add a sardonic, mumbling narrator, and dive deep into the minutiae of society’s margins. Haunted explodes that idea. The premise is odd: a group of aspiring writers agree to be locked inside an abandoned theater for a month to force themselves to write. It’s also ambitiously structured, with chapters alternating between the main narrative (wherein conditions rapidly deteriorate as each member sabotages something to gin up more drama) and short stories written from the characters’ points-of-view. It works very effectively and demonstrates Palahniuk’s stealth range as a writer. A highlight is the infamous story Guts, which reportedly made several people faint when he read the story in public. Considering the story is about a teenage boy who attempts to pleasure himself with a pool filter (with horrifying results), it’s absolutely possible.
Palahniuk often takes a premise that shouldn’t be able to support a novel-length story and uses it to explore facets of society you wouldn’t immediately think of. Invisible Monsters is the story of an attention-seeking model who becomes so horrifyingly disfigured no one wants to look at her, rendering her invisible to a world that once couldn’t look away. There are themes of identity, sexuality, and the superficial horrors of the modern world. It’s all rendered with a blistering rage under the words; this was Palahniuk’s first novel, originally rejected by his publisher for being too disturbing, and its early provenance shows in its raw presentation. If you’re going to read this, look for the ‛remixed’ version, which is Palahniuk’s slightly revised and preferred version.
Palahniuk’s 2001 novel is probably his most difficult work. The protagonist, Victor, is almost impossible to support. He’s a medical school dropout working at a historical theme park who pretends to choke on food at restaurants to claim free meals. He attends sex addiction group meetings with less-than noble intentions, and his relationship with his dementia-addled mother is tough to witness. Put it all together and it’s unrelentingly dark, but it’s also possibly the best writing Palahniuk has ever done. Unlike many of his protagonists, Victor never seems to realize how awful his life is, giving the story an unexpectedly poignant aspect, and the relatively low stakes keep the book more grounded than most of Palahniuk’s works.
If the premise of Snuff doesn’t turn you off, you might be a potential Palahniuk fan. Cassie Wright, a fading star of adult films, decides to cement her legacy by breaking the all-time record for most sex acts in a single production. Her willingness to explore the seedy and grotesque is one reason why she’s such a singular talent. The story switches focus between three men waiting their turns and Cassie’s producer, Sheila. Palahniuk explores porn and its impacts as well as a surprisingly deep look at mother-daughter relationships. Bottom line, if you love — or at least enjoy — Snuff, you are Chuck’s people.
Rant is a lot. It’s a story set in an alternative universe whose main character spreads a mutated form of the rabies virus. There’s an underground scene where people stage car crashes in order to role play, and there are zombies in a warped Jesus narrative. The story, in other words, is crazy. But good crazy, as it allows Palahniuk to explore the idea that myth and religion often start off telling one story and end up telling a wholly different narrative when the facts are twisted and the main character mysteriously vanishes after an accident. Bursting with ideas, this is a novel about ideas and how they can power movements and religions, even if they’re seemingly impossible to understand.
Madison, a 13-year old girl, wakes up in Hell without knowing how she got there. She knows she’s dead, but she doesn’t know why. Her celebrity parents were neglectful, so Madison is well versed in making her own way in whatever world she finds herself in. Hell isn’t much of a challenge. In fact, in Palahniuk’s hilarious exploration of the literal banality of evil, Madison’s boredom soon makes her one of the most powerful forces in Hell. While the story gets bogged down in the less-interesting mystery of Madison’s precise cause of death, this is one of Palahniuk’s few truly fun novels, in which he posits that some of the worst demons of human history (including Hitler and Vlad the Impaler) are no match for a spoiled tween girl.

Evidence of racial and ethnic discrimination stems mostly from experiments in the U.S., Europe, and elsewhere that use names to signal race/ethnicity. Although recent work has examined individual racial perceptions of names in the U.S., no research has examined how names might convey immigrant generational status – an important signal for discrimination experiments across the world. I conduct a survey experiment that presents respondents with a series of first and last names to examine perceptions of immigrant generational status in the U.S. In total, 1,659 respondents provide information on 56 different names. I find that when presented with both traditional first and last Hispanic, Indian, or Chinese names, respondents most often believe that person was not born in the U.S. When presented with traditional white or Anglo first names combined with Hispanic or Asian last names, respondents most often believe that person was born in the U.S. but their parents were not. Individual names provide some variation within these results and some groups have stronger results than others. These findings have important implications for discrimination experiments in the U.S. and open the door for future research to distinguish between discrimination based on race/ethnicity and discrimination based on immigration status.
Scholars suggest that public mental health stigma operates at a meso-level and is associated with severity of symptoms, disclosure, self-esteem, and treatment-seeking behavior. However, the operationalization of public stigma nearly always comes from an individual-level generalization of what others believe. Using data from over 60,000 students on 75 U.S. college and university campuses between 2009 and 2015, we contextualize public stigma by creating a school-level measure of students’ individual-level endorsed mental health treatment stigma. We present multilevel logistic regression models for 21 different dependent variables. We find that even after controlling for individual-level stigma scores, school-level stigma is negatively associated with self-reports of suicidal ideation and self-injury, although not associated with screens for depression or anxiety. Moreover, school-level stigma is negatively associated with medication use, counseling and therapy visits, and to a lesser degree, informal support. We suggest that future research should continue to examine the contextual environment of public stigma, while policymakers may be able to implement changes to significantly reduce stigma at this level.
This book offers practical instruction on the use of audit studies in the social sciences. It features essays from sociologists, economists, and other experts who have employed this powerful and flexible tool. Readers will learn how to implement an audit study to examine a variety of questions in their own research. The essays first discuss situations where audit studies are the most effective. These tools allow researchers to make strong causal claims and explore questions that are often difficult to answer with observational data. Audit studies also stand as the single best way to conduct research on discrimination. The authors highlight what these studies have uncovered about labor market processes in the past decade. The next section gives some guidance on how to design an audit study. The essays cover the difficult task of getting a study through an institutional review board, the technical setup of matching procedures, and statistical power and analysis techniques.
The last part focuses on more advanced aspects. Coverage includes understanding context, what variables may signal, and the use of technology. The book concludes with a discussion of challenges and limitations with an eye towards the future of audit studies.
“Field experiments studying and testing for housing and labor market discrimination have, rightly, become the dominant mode of discrimination-related research in economics and sociology. This book brings together a number of interesting and useful perspectives on these field experiments. Many different kinds of readers will find it valuable, ranging from those interested in getting an overview of the evidence, to researchers looking for guidance on the nuts and bolts of conducting these complex experiments.”
David Neumark, Chancellor’s Professor of Economics at the University of California – Irvine
“For decades, researchers have used experimental audit studies to uncover discrimination in a variety of markets. Although this approach has become more popular in recent years, few publications provide detailed information on the design and implementation of the method. This volume provides the first deep examination of the audit method, with details on the practical, political, analytical, and theoretical considerations of this research. Social scientists interested in consuming or contributing to this literature will find this volume immensely useful.”
Devah Pager, Professor of Sociology and Public Policy at Harvard University

Title: Chaika The Coffin Princess Avenging Battle (Season 2) Blu-Ray
Director: Soichi Masui
Creator: Ichiro Sakaki
Anime Writer: Touko Machida
U. S. Distributor: Sentai Filmworks, Section 23
U. S. Release Date: September 27th, 2016
Format: Blu-ray/ 10 Episodes + 1 OVA/ 275 Minutes
Genre: Fantasy, Action, Supernatural, Harem
Age Rating: TV 14
Overall Personal Rating: A-
The battle on the floating fortress is over, but the quest to recover the scattered remains of Emperor Gaz is too important to delay. As Chaika and her companions seek out the hero Claudia in order to obtain the heart, they race against Red Chaika, who seeks the hero, Guy, who possesses one of the arms.
Even as Chaika struggles to learn the new magical skills required to defeat Claudia, a startling new revelation comes to light which may change their mission entirely: not all of Gaz’s magic research was destroyed, and information regarding the creation of the Chaikas may have been taken to a mysterious island!
With the possibility of uncovering the secrets behind their mysterious origins dangled in front of them, the Chaikas must decide whether or not they want to find the hidden island and brave its unknown perils. Could the entire thing be a trap?
It’s highly likely, but how can they resist the bait as the spellbinding adventure continues in CHAIKA THE COFFIN PRINCESS – AVENGING BATTLE!
After almost 10 months Chaika returns to complete the series. Chaika the Coffin Princess Avenging Battle is more than the second season it manages to take the series to another level. There was much less concentration on the harem aspects and real focus on the plot and character development. The simple fact that all of the characters knew what they were after and set their sights on completing their mission was very helpful in drawing a clear line between them. As the mystery unfolded for both the viewer and the lead characters it became obvious that there had to be some soul searching as the final battle drew close.
Overall Grade: A-
Unlike the first season of Chaika the Coffin Princess, Chaika The Coffin Princess Avenging Battle is much faster and full of action. The plot develops at a lightening pace which is great if you are in a hurry to get to the end. I enjoyed it but felt like there could have been a little more story development to help explain everything that was going on. Even with the shortened length I still felt like there was plenty of information and lots of excitement. I was even pleased with the ending.
It was refreshing to have the series focus on the end and also loose some of the emphasis on the Moe and Harem aspects to provide a solid series that has plenty of characters that anyone can connect with.
If you liked the first season of Chaika then you will love Chaika The Coffin Princess Avenging Battle. If you haven’t seen the first season and are interested in some fun and excitement then you should check out the series from the beginning. I think you should be hooked and ready to see the rest.


Author: Swami SrikantanandaEditor(s): Swami SrikantanandaPublisher: Ramakrishna MathYear: 2011Language: EnglishPages: 146ISBN/UPC (if available): N/A
The Voice of Vivekananda is as vibrant as his radiant Form. The thoughts of this Prophet of modern spiritual renaissance are more relevant today than ever before. His electrifying message of the divinity of man, of peace and harmony emerging from the realized and realizable Truths of Vedanta, uniting mankind with the silken thread of shared faith, is no longer the luxury of a few blessed souls, but is a sheer necessity for the survival of humanity itself.Hence the need for this book. It presents, in a reader-friendly way, the core of Swamiji's thoughts, arranged to captivate and appeal to both the young and not so young. Anyone who is concerned with the achievements of complete well being for all will here orientations that make that goal achievable. We live in a world apparently torn by divisive tendencies of various forms: political, ideological encounters, social inequalities and rigidities, and above all, economic inequalities of an explosive potential. This selection is diligently made to reflect both these wings of Swamiji's thought: material progress and ethical, spiritual orientations. The range of areas covered is comprehensive and this compact volume addresses the ideals that Ramakrishna-Vivekananda tradition always stood for: a blending of work and worship, of service and spirituality.

Project Cycle Management Toolkit - Local Livelihoods - (2001)
This guide provides another perspective on the feasibility of implementing Project Cycle Management, or PCM. It breaks the PCM process into six stages, and clearly explains how they should each be conducted, though they acknowledge that local and cultural considerations will vary wildly between places that Project Cycle Management is implemented. Unlike VIDES' guide, though, the Local Livelihoods organization is clearly more of a believer in the system, as they enthusiastically support it. As they say:
"It builds a shared and concise picture of what a project will do to overcome a specific problem. It does this by breaking down the components of regeneration into manageable sized chunks. PCM divides the ‘project cycle’ into six stages in the life of a project: the cycle starts with the policy objectives and sectoral area covered and moves to identification of a problem to be addressed, develops the idea to solve the problem into a working plan that can be implemented and, on completion, evaluated. PCM provides the context in which project decisions are made and activities managed: it maintains the critical linkage between one stage and the next. As a common methodology PCM also provides the basis for a partnership framework when more than one agency is engaged in planning or managing projects."


In "Saudi America" Bethany McClean Shares The Truth About Fracking And How It's Changing The World
This encore program originally aired in January, 2019.
Fracking has upended the global energy map, transforming America into the world’s top producer of oil and natural gas. With the influence of Saudi Arabia and Russia shrinking as the goal of “energy independence” comes into focus, America’s energy policy would seem to be on a clear and positive trajectory. But the truth is more complicated.
In her book, Saudi America: The Truth About Fracking and How It’s Changing the World, Bethany McLean uncovers the reality of America’s fracking boom. Looking at the economics of capital investment and net debt, McLean paints a picture of a business where the massive returns promised to investors have yet to bear out.
Bethany McLean is an author and journalist known for her work on the 2008 financial crisis. Her previous books include the bestselling saga of the Enron collapse, The Smartest Guys in the Room, and Shaky Ground: The Strange Saga of the US Mortgage Giants. She frequently writes for Slate and Fortune and is a contributing editor at Vanity Fair.

The popularity of this book is evidenced by the fact that it is now in the fifth edition. The practitioner who finds it necessary to brush up quickly on the points concerning some disease, the student preparing for an examination, and those who must rapidly revise their knowledge of medicine in general will find this synopsis most admirable for their purposes. In this edition many new articles have been added. There are discussions of Brucella abortus infection, tularemia, yaws, postvaccinal encephalitis, sickle-cell anemia, agranulocytosis and other disorders only recently described. Many of the chapters have been rewritten to make them conform with recent discoveries. Some unnecessary material has been removed, so that the size of the volume has not been materially increased. The usefulness of this book is unquestioned and its value is increased because of its completeness and accuracy.

About the Author
"I wasn't who I was because I was a journalist, I was a journalist because of who I am." We need such journalists. Sean Carberry has written a brave book for which there are no passport stamps-the soul highs and lows of intoxicating faith leaping around dangerous combat zones on a years-long adrenalin rush. This is a clarion call for better mental health treatment after a confusing exodus from that world, where writing knits together that which is frayed and keeps indelible experiences on the shelves of story, always.--Jacki Lyden, author of Daughter of the Queen of Sheba and former NPR host and correspondent
Passport Stamps brings to mind Gale Garnett's "We'll Sing in the Sunshine." Carberry describes the evanescence of sunshine and darkness followed by the inevitable being "on the way" of a journalist. Carberry's world is a tattered web of people and places: Serbia, Russia, Egypt, Columbia, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan-our simultaneously horrifying yet alluring broken globe. Passport Stamps records Carberry's memories-accounts which make the reader ache for his forgotten life, real or imagined. It is a sharp, raking marvelous travel book, an autobiography rich with detail and ponderings about life.--Sam Pickering, author of The Gate in the Garden Wall, and "The Truth"
A lot of journalists come back from covering war and disaster and write the book about what they saw. Sean Carberry tells a different story-about what goes on inside of such a reporter's mind out there. Hopes, dreams, fears, embarrassment, hard lessons. It's all there, and it's quite a yarn.--John Donvan, former ABC News correspondent, filmmaker, and author of In a Different Key: The Story of Autism

This latest novel from Scotiabank Giller Prize winner Linden MacIntyre, Why Men Lie, offers a moving and emotionally complex conclusion to the Cape Breton trilogy.
Two years after the events of The Bishop’s Man, we’re introduced to Effie MacAskill Gillis, sister of the troubled priest Duncan. It’s 1997, and Effie is an independent, middle-aged woman working as a tenured professor of Celtic Studies, but her complicated and often disappointing love life has left her all but ready to give up on the opposite sex. Then suddenly, a chance encounter with a man on a Toronto subway platform gives Effie renewed hope. J.C. Campbell is an old friend she hasn’t seen for more than 20 years – an attractive, single man who appears to possess the stability and good sense she longs for.
Effie met her last husband, Sextus, in her hometown of Cape Breton when the two were still children. As they grew older together, and started a family, she soon learned that when it came to other women, Sextus couldn’t be trusted. After one too many betrayals, Effie leaves him behind, and so when she and J.C. seem to hit it off, his relaxed, open demeanour is a welcome change.
But after a happy start to their relationship, cracks begin to show, and J.C. proves himself to be just as unpredictable as the others: one evening Effie spots him in a seedy part of town, but he denies ever having left his house; when she notices a scratch below his eye, he lies about its cause, blaming it on the cat. Then J.C., a journalist, becomes unhealthily engrossed in a story involving a convict on death row, and he and Effie begin to drift apart.
Although he still checks in sporadically and insists there’s nothing going on, she soon learns he has a deeply personal reason for his covert trips to that seedy downtown street. In fact, it turns out there’s a lot about his past that Effie doesn’t know, and a lot he’s still learning himself.
While J.C. is busy chasing his own past, Effie is rarely able to escape her own. Family ties and hometown connections to Cape Breton mean her two ex-husbands – Sextus happens to be the cousin of her first husband, John – are constantly coming and going in a turbulent mess of comfort and commotion, while her grown daughter, Cassie, brings some unexpected news of her own.
After all of her experience in relationships with men, Effie thought she knew all she needed to about what to expect, and how to maintain her self-sufficiency. Why do men lie?, she wants to know. But whether it’s for love, for protection, or for more selfish reasons, Effie soon learns that no amount of experience can prepare you for what might resurface from the past, and for the damage that might cause, emotionally or otherwise.

Book by Janet Peery Gets Plug on ‘Diane Rehm Show’
March 31, 2014
Janet Peery, University Professor of creative writing in the English department at Old Dominion, got an unexpected - and pleasant - surprise last week when she learned that her book "The River Beyond the World" (Picador USA, 1996) was highlighted on "The Diane Rehm Show" Wednesday, March 26. The show is produced by National Public Radio member station WAMU and distributed nationally by NPR.
On the show, a special "March Readers' Review," Rehm and her guests discussed why fiction matters. A recent study indicates that fewer than half of all Americans are reading novels today. It suggests that those who do read fiction are better able to understand the emotions of others. Joining this conversation about the social and personal benefits of reading fiction were four guests, including author Mark Brazaitis, professor of English at West Virginia University and director of the West Virginia Writers' Workshop.
At the end of the show, Rehm asked her guests to "give our listeners one fiction recommendation that you would offer at this moment and we'll put it on our website." Brazaitis' response was Peery's "The River Beyond the World," which was a National Book Award finalist for fiction in 1996.
"In light of new studies of how reading fiction prepares minds and enhances compassion and emotional engagement, the show explored the issue of the importance of fiction," Peery said. "My Amazon sales numbers went way up! They'll go down again, but it was a real boost to see the power of the media in selling books, even those that are almost 20 years old."
(Peery's books are also available for sale at the University Village Bookstore.)
Peery, who usually listens to "The Diane Rehm Show," said she had to miss the March 26 program because of a meeting. A cousin from Phoenix contacted Peery to tell her about it.
The cover of Peery's book (with a link to its page on Amazon), as well as a transcript of the discussion from the show, appears on Rehm's website: http://thedianerehmshow.org/shows/2014-03-26/special-readers-review-why-fiction-matters.
A State Council of Higher Education for Virginia Outstanding Faculty Award winner, Peery is also the author of "What the Thunder Said" (St. Martin's Press, 2007) and "Alligator Dance" (SMU Press, 1993). "What the Thunder Said" won the Library of Virginia Literary Award for Fiction in 2008 and the 2008 WILLA Award from Women Writing the West for Contemporary Fiction. She won a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1998 and was listed among Writer's Digest Magazine's "25 Fiction Writers to Watch in the Next Decade" in 2000.
Peery's short stories have appeared in Southern Review, Shenandoah, Kenyon Review, Quarterly West, Black Warrior Review, Chattahoochee Review, Kansas Quarterly, Southwest Review, Oklahoma Today, New Virginia Review, 64 Magazine and American Short Fiction.
The following is a synopsis of "The River Beyond the World": "Luisa Cantu is a girl from a Sierra Madre mountain village. After being impregnated in a fertility ritual of ancient origin, she leaves Mexico to work in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas as a housemaid for Mrs. Eddie Hatch, a woman with a strong will and a narrow worldview. Their complex relationship - by turns mystical and pragmatic, serious and comic - reveals the many ways human beings can wound one another, the nature of love and sacrifice, and the possibility of forgiveness."

As the seventy-fifth anniversary of the disaster methods, it is still the deadliest institution catastrophe in U.S. historical past. Few, besides the fact that, be aware of of this old tragedy, and no ebook, beforehand, has chronicled the explosion, its reason, its sufferers, and the aftermath.
Gone at 3:17 is a real tale of what can take place while college officers make undesirable judgements. to save cash on heating the varsity construction, the trustees had licensed staff to faucet right into a pipeline wearing “waste” average gasoline produced by means of a gas refinery. The explosion ended in legislation that now require gasoline businesses so as to add the conventional stinky scent. the information that the tragedy might have been avoided additional immeasurably to the heartbreak skilled via the survivors and the sufferers’ households. town might by no means be the same.
Using interviews, testimony from survivors, and archival newspaper records, Gone at 3:17 places readers contained in the store type to witness the spark that ignited the gasoline. lots of these interviewed in the course of 20 years of study aren't any longer residing, yet their acts of heroism and tales of survival continue to exist during this meticulously documented and widely illustrated book.


Embarking on Murder
Review: Elsie "Beanie" MacBean is celebrating her 50th birthday with her daughter Nona and her good friend Sheriff Skip Cassidy aboard a dinner cruise on Lake Tahoe on the 4th of July, expecting a brilliant display of fireworks at the end of the evening but getting fireworks of a different, and more deadly, kind instead in Embarking on Murder, the third mystery in this series by Sue Owens Wright.
While Beanie is enjoying her meal, another couple, elderly Frank Diggs, his adult children, and his wife of one year Ivy, who just happens to be younger than any of his children, have a loud argument. Ivy is screaming at Frank, demanding a divorce, and otherwise making a scene for all to see. Suddenly the boat seems to run over something, lifting one side up enough to tip over tables and unseating patrons who immediately leave the dining area. Soon after Frank yells that Ivy is missing and he fears she may have fallen overboard. Skip dives into the lake but something yanks on his leg, pulling him down. He manages to free himself, but his pants are in shreds and his leg in need of stitches. Beanie is faced with two puzzling questions: What happened to Ivy? And what was in the water that attacked Skip?
Embarking on Murder takes a creative look at a colossal creature that reportedly lives in the great depths of Lake Tahoe and dubbed "Tessie" by the locals, incorporating it into the plot of the story. If Ivy wasn't on board the cruise ship, she must have fallen overboard. But could she have drowned so quickly, or might she have been pulled under just as Skip was. If so, by what? And what caused the boat to suddenly shift to one side, as if it hit something large underwater or was shoved upward from below? The multiple twists in Embarking on Murder, colorful characters and tense situations, broad humor and the hint of romance between Beanie and Skip, and of course the delightful Cruiser, make this a most enjoyable read.

Pope from 757-767. The brother of Pope Stephen 11 and a Roman, he was educated in the Lateran Palace, became a deacon under Pope Zachary, and wielded considerable influence in his brotherís administration. Elected to succeed Stephen, he took as his primary concern the threat posed to Rome and the Papal States by the Lombards. Paul secured an alliance with the Frankish king Pepin the Short, thereby cementing the relationship between the Holy See and the Frankish Empire which culminated with the historically significant alliance between Pope Leo III and Charlemagne. Paul also opposed the Iconoclast policies of the Byzantine emperor Constantine V, thereby exacerbating further the deteriorating relationship between the papacy and the Byzantine Empire.

Summary of Religion of Fear by Jason C Bivins PDF
Conservative evangelicalism has transformed American politics, disseminating a sometimes fearful message not just through conventional channels, but through subcultures and alternate modes of communication. Within this world is a "Religion of Fear," a critical impulse that dramatizes cultural and political conflicts and issues in frightening ways that serve to contrast "orthodox" behaviors and beliefs with those linked to darkness, fear, and demonology. Jason Bivins offers close examinations of several popular evangelical cultural creations including the Left Behind novels, church-sponsored Halloween "Hell Houses," sensational comic books, especially those disseminated by Jack Chick, and anti-rock and -rap rhetoric and censorship. Bivins depicts these fascinating and often troubling phenomena in vivid (sometimes lurid) detail and shows how they seek to shape evangelical cultural identity. As the "Religion of Fear" has developed since the 1960s, Bivins sees its message moving from a place of relative marginality to one of prominence. What does it say about American public life that such ideas of fearful religion and violent politics have become normalized? Addressing this question, Bivins establishes links and resonances between the cultural politics of evangelical pop, the activism of the New Christian Right, and the political exhaustion facing American democracy. Religion of Fear is a significant contribution to our understanding of the new shapes of political religion in the United States, of American evangelicalism, of the relation of religion and the media, and the link between religious pop culture and politics.

The year is AD100 and Rome stands supreme and unconquerable, from the desert sands of Mesopotamia to the misty highlands of Caledonia. But the might of Rome rests entirely on the shoulders of the legionaries, who stand strong against the barbarian hordes, pushing back the frontiers of the empire. This book a kind of unofficial guide for the new recruit, written in the same engaging and informative style as "Ancient Rome on Five Denarii a Day" tells you how to get in and get on in the legions, the best places to serve, life in camp, on campaign and in battle, and such things as how to stop your armour going rusty and how to storm a city. It will have immense appeal to all those who enjoy ancient history, but who want to be entertained at the same time.

Flat Protagonists is a book of literary theory that examines a selection of British and French novels ranging from the late seventeenth to the early twentieth century. The authors it discusses are Aphra Behn, Isabelle de Charrière, Françoise de Graffigny, Thomas Hardy, and Marcel Proust. These writers’ novels all center around a unique narrative device, referred to as the “flat protagonist.” These novels’ character construction tends asymptotically toward what E. M. Forster describes as “flatness.” Their protagonists come ever closer to seeming, as Forster puts it, to be “constructed around a single idea or quality” of limited sophistication and interest. Their behaviors are increasingly stereotypical and predictable, and their means of responsiveness and expression progressively diminish, until other characters no longer even contradict, but simply disregard, what they say. At the same time, flat protagonists are also, against those odds, protagonists: they are consistently framed as major characters, and no other represented person usurps this central place. By drawing attention to the limitations of these characters as objects of other people’s interest, the novels in question set in place a form of “flat realism” whose aim is to reduce our expectations about how much any particular person’s self-expression interests or affects anybody else. This mode of inquiry in narrative theory is proposed as a counterweight to critics’ prevalent emphasis on novels as means of appreciating the complex difficulty of first-person experience and interpersonal communication.


The Royal Institute of British Architects is committed to platforming the work and stories of LGBTQ+ communities in architecture and the wider built environment.
During Pride Month 2023, we highlighted this work through events and projects, including those as part of collaborations with other organisations.
Events and programming
For Pride Month 2023, RIBA supported a series of events and programmes, including some in collaborations with other organisations, to highlight the achievements of the LGBTQ+ community within the built environment. See our programme of events below:
Pride in the Built Environment with RICS
7 Jun 2023, 12.30pm to 4pm
RICS HQ, 12 Great George Street, London
RIBA joined the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) alongside other built environment organisations for an afternoon of constructive conversations on how leaders can influence wider inclusion efforts beyond their organisation. It was a great chance to learn what both professionals and organisations can and should be doing to establish habits and behaviours that create more inclusive cultures in the workplace.

Pride House Liverpool at RIBA North
During the month of May, RIBA North hosted Pride House Liverpool as part of the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest. This community safe space featured a cafe, bar, exhibitions, and community stalls delivered by LCR Pride Foundation.
Throughout the year, RIBA has hosted a series of exhibitions with LGBTQ+ communities at the centre. See the list of past exhibitions below:
OUT of Space is an exhibition organised by the RIBA LGBTQ+ Community internal group and the RIBA Library and Collections team to highlight contributions of the LGBTQ+ community within architecture and the built environment.
It included a display of curated records, pictures, and archival material from the late 1980s and 1990s to document and celebrate the vibrant gay and lesbian clubbing scene in Liverpool, broadening modes of representation through a selection of LGBTQIA+ artefacts.
Check back soon for upcoming exhibitions looking at the LGBTQ+ community and the built environment.
Our RIBA Collections team invites people working in the cultural and built environment sectors to share their reflections on materials in the RIBA Collections, with a particular view to amplify underrepresented voices. See our latest LGBTQ+ content below:
This guide signposts some of the resources and materials available through the RIBA's Library and Collections. It is likely that many more stories are yet to be discovered, remaining untold because of legislation that forced LGBTQ+ individuals to conceal their identities or risk prosecution.
As part of the Revisiting the Collections blog series, chair of RIBA’s internal LGBTQ+ Community group Emily Jeffers explores how a cottage in rural Wales has led contemporary historians to re-evaluate how we project our own understanding of female queer relationships onto historic figures, particularly women, who have expressed intimacy in different ways.

Through the River
Through the River is a challenging and fascinating book that takes the reader on a poignant journey through River Town, providing an eye-opening view on how people can live in close proximity while having radically contrasting perspectives. River Town's three communities live and act so differently because each group is using a distinct set of assumptions about truth (truth lens).
This journey exposes the eternal consequences of how our truth lens influences whether we tell others what we know, insist that others accept what we know or be resigned to keep what we know to ourselves. Today the confusion about truth is great but the stakes are even greater. Our understanding of the different ways people view truth is crucial to building and maintaining constructive relationships. Through the River explores the tools God has given us to engage people who have different assumptions thereby enabling us to communicate Christ to a lost and damaged world.
"Through the River is a welcome synthesis of perspectives on truth . . . This book persuasively conveys the truthful humility and balance of critical realism and argues that the discovery and holistic implementation of biblical truth takes place in the context of an interdependent community."
"Jon and Mindy Hirst have masterfully distilled a complicated subject and made it understandable. They help us see that there are various ways to view truth and that how we approach it dramatically impacts our lives and relationships. With biblical references and practical examples they encourage us on the journey toward truth partnered with love. Prepare your heart and mind for new understanding as you read."
