Closeted

Closeted is the posthumous novel of Chelsie Hubert, a determined woman who died too young, her body taken by rare sickness and disease. Her first and final known work might best be described as tragic erotica. It offers a tale of cruel romance reminiscent of Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther, although its motif of unrequited lust is altogether unrestrained. The coming-of-age struggle and search for identity on display within its pages is almost Shakespearean in nature. Its conflict is centered around social breakdown, its central figure also fighting-in their own way-to be virtuous, only to await their inevitable downfall and dire end. The painstaking detail in which the internal crises and inner workings of its protagonist are described equally resembles the existentialism of a Dostoevsky or Kierkegaard, yet its content is far more disturbing, its forbidden themes wholly modern. Its harsh portrayals of self-discovery spill from its sentences and paragraphs like the heartbreaking ordeals of a Bront classic but with a present-day twist. It is a quintessential read for those who see beauty in the dark side of life. Those with a penchant for the meaningfully deviant or perverse may find their curiosity satiated by its pages. Pessimists and cynics are welcome to its content.

An ethnography of Senegalese households in Paris and Dakar that analyzes ways families negotiate transnational kinship Selective Solidarity examines how global inequalities change the ways transnational families negotiate "economic moralities," or expectations about material obligations. Analyzing everyday exchanges in middle-class Senegalese households in Paris and Dakar, this book traces links between the language that mediates acts of food sharing and gift giving, and moral discourses that shape redistribution beyond the household. Foregrounding children's role in transnational relations, anthropologist Chelsie Yount urges us to rethink questions of agency in economic practice. How do children grapple with the multiple, and sometimes contradictory, moral expectations they encounter at home and abroad? What can their practical struggles tell us about the ways the decline of the middle class in Europe impacts kinship connections in the African diaspora? The difficulties migrant parents face in transmitting class status to their French-born children lays bare the fact that for visible minorities, "integration" is not a state one can achieve once and for all, but a process that can potentially be undone. Yount argues that the French-born children of Senegalese, acutely aware of the discrimination they face in France, also forge affective and economic connections abroad that are key to creating and reproducing transnational kinship. At its heart, Selective Solidarity is about children's experiences sharing food and giving gifts in Paris and on trips to Dakar. This book considers experiences of family life in global capitalism, focusing on middle-class downward mobility to highlight the ways socioeconomic relations are redefined as resources stretch thin. Highlighting the uneven terrain of transnational kinship, Selective Solidarity offers a new perspective on theories of value, revealing how moral expectations of kinship in Africa are bound up with values of immigrant integration in Europe. Together, these economic moralities shape families' attempts to navigate the vicissitudes of tiered migration trajectories as heightened tensions surrounding migration reconfigure class structures globally.

"The adult Jenna Shale looks back on her life, explaining how life is no more than a series of television programs, as she recounts her childhood, the rise of her dance career, and the scandals that resulted from being a teenager in love with two brothers, both much older than herself, who are connected to the glamorous--and the not so glamorous--dance world. The story is written with a unique framing that allows the events of Jenna Shale's life to be viewed through a lens that allows for a comparison to her life with various types of television shows. Complete with directors, producers, commercials, newsflashes, and soundtracks, Jenna recounts her life experiences to the reader in ways that are both humorous and provocative. Growing up is not easy and happens all too fast for young Jenna, who leaves little out when recounting the experiences that would lead her to be a fan favorite of the viewers around her. She is, after all, the owner of JSN (the Jenna Shale Network), where nothing is sacred and very little is as it really seems."
