Eve Pallue's fa ade of purpose falters when a near death experience exposes the frailty of her existence, and she must come to grips with a reality that death ultimately wins. A hidden memory of a forgotten mother surfaces, and Eve's bodyguard, Randall, takes advantage of her weakened state, trying to capture her devotion and lace her into his ambitious agenda. A dying therapist and her unlikely caretaker lead Eve on a journey of Truth; and a catastrophic fire catapults Eve into a life she has always feared, destroying the only one she has ever known. Eve awakens to severe burns and a pair of doting, elderly sisters who nurture Eve's newfound faith and guide her on the path to eternal purpose.

Ruth struggles to survive the rustic Colonies, and she must adjust to living with family she barely knows. However, her mother's sickness and her brother's protectiveness cannot deter the feelings she is forming for a retired fighter with a Ka'to Indian heritage and an abusive past. As Ruth begins to expose the World Government's control tactics to divide the world into two factions, she finds her place as a simple seamstress with little understanding of rural life. While Ruth overcomes loss and learns to love, God begins to unite a dynamic group of Efficientists and Colonials, setting the stage for a sweeping resistance that no one can comprehend.

Crafting Dignity: How Immigrant Dairy Workers Transform Rural Communities
Alisa Garni
UNIVERSITY PRESS OF KANSAS
2026
sidottu
Based on years of ethnographic research in rural Kansas, Crafting Dignity is an eye-opening look at why Latin American immigrants came to work on dairy farms in the Heartland and how their presence is transforming both the industry and their local communities. Immigrants in the United States are overrepresented among essential workers in agro-food production. In the dairy industry alone, immigrants constitute 51 percent of the labor force and produce 80 percent of the country's milk. Whereas most food production in the United States today is controlled by large corporations, at least 97 percent of US dairy farms are family owned and operated. Based on five years of ethnographic research in "Dairy City," Kansas, Alisa Garni tells the story of people who traded suits and office jobs abroad for dangerous work on US dairy farms, the white dairy farmers who rely on them to keep their family-owned operations afloat, and the rural communities that were dying before recent immigrants arrived. Crafting Dignity follows immigrant employees from three competing family dairy farms in rural Kansas and examines how labor relations on each farm affect people's settlement experiences in Dairy City, as well as their impact on the local community. In detailing how people's work lives are woven into the broader social fabric of rural America, Crafting Dignity sheds fresh light on how managers' labor practices interact with social, political, and historical forces to impact the viability of farms and communities. In an era of increased political anxiety about immigration and migrant labor, Crafting Dignity shows what life is really like for these workers and how more just labor practices foster a better life—not only for the laborers but for the community as a whole.

From Alisa Kwitney, the acclaimed author of "Sex as a Second Language" and "The Dominant Blonde, " comes a witty, romantic, and compassionate new novel about an urban working mom who leaves the city only to find her talents are no match for country life. An accomplished journalist, Zoe Goren can't drive and she doesn't cook. But that's never been a problem in Manhattan, where the streets are filled with taxis and takeout restaurants, and a busy single mother can find everything she needs right at her fingertips. In fact, Zoe can't imagine living or working anyplace else. But when Zoe's daughter is diagnosed with dyslexia, she decides to make the ultimate sacrifice, moving two hours from Manhattan in order to enroll Maya in an excellent school for children with learning differences. Stranded in a rural paradise, Zoe must grapple with isolation, coyote howls, and the lack of good delivery services. But when she decides to overcome her fear of driving and take lessons, she meets Mack, an unnervingly attractive townie, back from the war in Iraq and trying to adjust to civilian life. With a budding new romance and a reporting gig for the local paper, Zoe just might survive in the wilderness of small-town America after all. One of today's best breakout authors, who has been called "witty, charming, funny, and real" by Carly Phillips, Alisa Kwitney creates authentic characters that women love to read about -- and talk about. Zoe Goren will have them rooting for her all the way.
The Galerie Espagnole and the Museo Nacional 1835–1853

Ashgate Publishing Limited

An important and critical re-evaluation of the Galerie Espagnole, this book presents new interpretations of the special collection of Spanish (or purportedly Spanish) paintings formed under Louis-Philippe and exhibited in the Louvre from 1838 through 1848. Alisa Luxenberg undertakes a new examination of the Parisian collection in relation to its lesser-known Spanish homologue, the Museo Nacional in Madrid, a collection of mostly old master Spanish paintings and sculptures that was formed at the very same time. Revealing the political agendas behind each museum, and the different manners in which their goals were pursued, Luxenberg analyzes the critical and visual reception of the collections as well as their intersection with contemporary debates about aesthetics and patrimony, the role of the art museum, and national and international politics.

Increased use of mass transportation in the early twentieth century enabled men and women of different social classes to interact in ways they had not before. Using a cultural studies approach that combines historical research and literary analysis, author Alisa Freedman investigates fictional, journalistic, and popular culture depictions of how mass transportation changed prewar Tokyo's social fabric and artistic movements, giving rise to gender roles that have come to characterize modern Japan. Freedman persuasively argues that, through descriptions of trains and buses, stations, transport workers, and passengers, Japanese authors responded to contradictions in Tokyo's urban modernity and exposed the effects of rapid change on the individual. She shines a light on how prewar transport culture anticipates what is fascinating and frustrating about Tokyo today, providing insight into how people make themselves at home in the city. An approachable and enjoyable book, Tokyo in Transit offers an exciting ride through modern Japanese literature and culture, and includes the first English translation of Kawabata Yasunari's The Corpse Introducer, a 1929 crime novella that presents an important new side of its Nobel Prizewinning author.
