“Engaging and inspiring . . . Reading this book should make you want to vote.”—Barack Obama In a world of sound bites, deliberate misinformation, and a political scene colored by the blue versus red partisan divide, how does the average educated American find a reliable source that’s free of political spin? What You Should Know About Politics . . . But Don’t breaks it all down, issue by issue, explaining who stands for what, and why—whether it’s the economy, income inequality, Obamacare, foreign policy, education, immigration, or climate change. If you’re a Democrat, a Republican, or somewhere in between, it’s the perfect book to brush up on a single topic or read through to get a deeper understanding of the often murky world of American politics. This is an essential volume for understanding the background to the 2020 presidential election. But it is also a book that transcends the season. It’s truly for anyone who wants to know more about the perennial issues that will continue to affect our everyday lives. The fourth edition includes an introduction by Martin Garbus discussing the themes and issues that have come to the fore during the present presidential cycle.

An acclaimed story collection from the author of the Shirley Jackson Award–winning novel The Hole *Booklist Starred Review* Six elephants bolt from an amusement park and vanish; where they’re found brings back memories of a forgotten dictator. A car ride on a foggy highway at night becomes a drive through hell for a young couple getting away for the weekend together. A family lives the dream of moving from the city to a brand-new bedroom town in the country, only to be plagued by debt and fears of eviction, while the sound of incessant barking rings from the kennels nearby. In a city built on the site of ancient tombs, a homeowner’s renovation of a broken wall leads to an outcome no one expected. Older workers hired to play characters from a folk tale and wear smiles no one believes. An accountant asked to cook the books for his boss. A would-be writer disappointed in her students and her choices.   These are some of the premises and characters in Hye-young Pyun’s To the Kennels, winner of one of Korea’s most prestigious literary awards. Infused with psychological acuity, understated suspense, a touch of the uncanny, and her Kafkaesque take on the contemporary world, To the Kennels offers a thrilling, unsettling ride through territory that is both familiar and strange. As Un-su Kim, author of The Plotters has observed, she “reveals to us the cellular division of emotions we’ve never seen before.”

Enter the magical world of La Llorona with New York Times bestselling author Joyce Maynard.   After a childhood filled with heartbreak, Irene, a talented artist, finds herself in a small Central American village where she checks into a beautiful but decaying lakefront hotel called La Llorona at the base of a volcano.   The Bird Hotel tells the story of this young American who, after suffering tragedy, restores and runs La Llorona. Along the way we meet a rich assortment of characters who live in the village or come to stay at the hotel. With a mystery at its center and filled with warmth, drama, romance, humor, pop culture, and a little magical realism, The Bird Hotel has all the hallmarks of a Joyce Maynard novel that have made her a leading voice of her generation.  The Bird Hotel is a big, sweeping story spanning four decades, offering lyricism as well as whimsy. While the world New York Times bestselling author Joyce Maynard brings to life on the page is rendered from her imagination, it’s one informed by the more than twenty years of which she has spent a significant amount of her time in a small Mayan indigenous village in Guatemala.    As the New York Times said, "[Maynard] has an unswerving eye, a sharply perked ear, and the ability to keep her readers hanging on her words." People Magazine said of her: "Maynard’s spare prose packs a rich emotional punch.”

Imagine having the power and wisdom to embrace your life's learned lessons. What better way to make your imagination a reality than through music? From this 90-day devotional, you will learn to engage your interest and love for music while embracing the love of God in your life and enhancing your spiritual journey. This book inhabits daily illustrations of four commandments inviting you to take ownership of your own love life, rectify your own healing, and make the conscious choice to live in complete freedom and on purpose. Like many women, the author would often question God for her countless and painful love loss experiences. She wondered why she couldn't meet and marry her high school sweetheart, or even a college sweetheart, like her friends? What she didn't know was that the pain intended to destroy her, God was turning it around for her good. Thus, was birthed the first installment in The Commandments Series, The Single Ladies' Commandments: Songs for Love, Healing, Freedom, and Purpose, a book based on her testimony, summed up in 90 days to save the lives of so many women facing the same challenges and seeking to overcome them. If God can do it for her, He can do it for you, Single Ladies.

"A wickedly funny satire, sparing no one, not even Mahatma Gandhi . . . Just thinking about it makes me want to go back and reread it."-Fareed Zakaria, New York Times Book ReviewIn this award-winning novel, Shashi Tharoor has masterfully recast the two-thousand-year-old epic, The Mahabharata, with fictionalized but highly recognizable events and characters from twentieth-century Indian politics. Blending history and myth, Tharoor directs his satire as much against Indian foibles as the bumbling of the British rulers to chronicle the struggle for Indian freedom and independence.The Great Indian Novel is a dazzling tapestry of prose and verse that is alternately outrageous and instructive, hilarious and moving,

Culture to Color gives me the opportunity to turn my photography into a different medium I can share with you. Come explore & discover the sites of DeLand, Florida, with me, a town I love to live in and be part of its everyday life and culture. Adult coloring books are known to be relaxing, they have become very popular for that reason. This adult coloring book not only offers the therapeutic aspect of this type of activity, but it also is a peek into the historic town in the heart of Florida. It is a wonderful way to plan a trip to the area, as it includes several of the landmark buildings, their history, location, and even a map of the downtown area. DeLand has kept its small-town appearance, and it is still referred to as "the Athens of Florida." DeLand has been designated a Great American Mainstreet and America's Best Mainstreet, not only for its charm and visual appeal but also for the City's commitment to the community. Adult coloring books are known to relax, and the Culture to Color series is a unique way to learn about different communities, too. This town was originally called Persimmon Hollow for the wild persimmon trees that grow around the natural springs in the area. It was only accessible by steamboat on the St. Johns River. Located a few miles east of the St. Johns, the community grew steadily after its founding in 1876 by New York State baking soda merchant Henry Addison DeLand. The town was renamed after DeLand who bought over a hundred acres of land when realizing the potential of the hilly pine area for growing citrus. Henry DeLand sought to create a town that would become a center for culture, education, religion, and enterprise - soon it became known as "the Athens of Florida."Northern visitors and friends of DeLand made regular trips here during the winter months. Many of them came seasonally, while others stayed. John Batterson Stetson built a winter home here and became a major benefactor to the college which was later renamed after him. Stetson also introduced electricity to Florida. He had one of Thomas A. Edison's first power plants built in DeLand to provide his home with electricity and ice and also illuminate the city streets. The town survived two disasters. In 1886, nearly all the town burned down when a fire started in a downtown saloon. As a result of the fire, no more saloons and wooden buildings were permitted, only brick and concrete buildings could be constructed in rebuilding the town.
