Nancy Nianci is a fast-moving novel of war, complex love, fractured family, rebellion against tradition-and choices that cannot be undone.China is under ferocious attack by Japan, and for Nianci Zhou, a college student in Peking who has demonstrated against Japan, danger increases by the day. When she falls for a young American, bitter race issues emerge.Breaking from family, Nianci casts her lot with America. She chooses freedom, or so she thinks.But then she finds herself trapped, completely cut off from her family by the cataclysmic rupture between China and America in 1949. What does it mean to be an American in this time?"This deeply moving book is at the intersection of history and biography. The story of the daughter of a distinguished Beijing family is set against the horror of the Japanese invasion of China and the civil war that followed." - Diana Lary, Director, Centre of Chinese Research, University of British Columbia "An extraordinary read Dramatically changed my perspective on those years of war in China." - David deWilde, Founder, Chartwell Partners "Fast-paced and engaging, this takes us back to Japan's invasion of China which led to Pearl Harbor and Hiroshima. Granddaughter of China's renowned Liang Qichao, Nancy/Nianci gives a raw and fresh perspective on love, freedom, and sacrifice." - Nora Wu, formerly Vice-Chair, PwC International "I'm delighted that it's now possible for the world to see this story. A narrative derived from the writings of someone who lived through the experience is the most valuable kind of history." - Fenrong Liu, Professor, Department of Philosophy, Tsinghua University

Wherever Nancy Butterkitten wanders, amazing surprises seem to await her. ln Nancy's first three tales of her adventures, she and her friends find a jack-o'-lantern with a glorious secret inside, a lavish wedding that can only be viewed with a magnifying glass, a beagle with wings, and a rather unusual little person who can walk UP trees. ln Nancy's concluding story, she finds herself entranced - perhaps too entranced - with a schoolmate's sparkling ruby bracelet. Nancy then has a dilemma. As she confronts it, she not only comes to a new understanding of herself but makes a wonderful new friend in the process.
Nancy gave up on kissing frogs a long time ago, but she never expected to find a prince, much less help rescue one, who was such a toad
If you were alive in twentieth-century America, you knew Ernie Bushmiller's Nancy--and this new collection assembles some of the greatest strips featuring the much-loved cartoon icon and her pug-nosed companion, Sluggo. The newspaper cartoonist Ernie Bushmiller once admitted that "all my characters are conceived in desperation." Nancy was no exception. She was the niece of the star of his other strip, Fritzi Ritzi, and meant to serve as a throwaway gag character. But Nancy could not be contained: Within a few years, Bushmiller's strip had been renamed for her, and she had begun her ascent into the pantheon of cartooning greats. Nancy, along with on-and-off boyfriend Sluggo, delivered absurd laughs to readers for decades, all rendered in Bushmiller's distinctive line that cartoonist Denis Kitchen once called "geometric perfection." A masterpiece of humor and cartooning, Nancy earned both scorn and acclaim for decades, serving as a muse (and sometimes punching bag) for the likes of Andy Warhol, Joe Brainard, Gary Panter, Matt Groening, and more. This collection of Bushmiller's Nancy brings together a selection from the beloved Kitchen Sink Press editions of Nancy strips, including How Sluggo Survives and Nancy Eats Food, as well as a number of newly selected cartoons. Together, this wide-ranging collection offers a chance for readers to experience the full range of Bushmiller's absurd humor and unexpected visual delights. As Nancy once said: "Anything can happen in a comic strip "
Nancy Burton was among the earliest underground cartoonists, creating comic strips that appeared in The East Village Other ("Gentle's Tripout") and Gothic Blimp Works ("Busy Boxes") in 1966. Under the pen names "Panzika" and "Nancy Kalish" and most importantly, "Hurricane Nancy," she contributed to many notable underground comix including It Ain't Me, Babe. Drawing on abstract expressionism, art nouveau and formline art, working in parallel to the psychedelic art movement and outsider artists like Consuelo "Chelo" Amezcua, Burton's comics feature birds and people, dreamlike landscapes, and psychedelic imagery that grows darker as the 1960s come to a close, reflecting the darkening mood of the era and her uniquely personal vision of the world. Burton stopped making art in the early 1970s and seemed to disappear, having met few cartoonists during her short tenure but making an impression on many with her unique psychedelic approach. In 2009 she began drawing again, posting artwork online without explanation and though many aspects of her work had changed, it remained indelibly her own. Hurricane Nancy is the first collection of Burton's work ever published and reprints many of her comics and drawings from that politically tumultuous and creatively fecund period of American culture in addition to her more recent work. In an exclusive interview, Burton talks about her travels and influences, the origins of her pen names, close encounters with Timothy Leary and the Grateful Dead, the Monterey Pop Festival and the Summer of Love, and explains for the first time why she not just abandoned comics in the early '70s, but stopped making art entirely.

Nancy Ross and Sara Hanks: Where Must We Stand?
Independently Published

I'm excited to introduce Sara Hanks and Dr. Nancy Ross from Dixie State University. I'll let them introduce themselves more in a minute, but we're going to talk about their latest book, "Where We Must Stand." It's about 10 years of the Feminist Mormon Housewives blog. They will discuss successes in pushing for change within the LDS Church, and their reactions to Kate Kelly's excommunication. How did Nancy and Sara react? Are they still active in the LDS Church? Many faithful Latter-day Saints may be concerned that Mormon feminism is a road to apostasy. Is that true? Would the church split like the Community of Christ did over women's ordination? Early Mormon women blessed by laying on of hands. If the practice returned, would that be good enough for the Ordain Women movement, or do they require ordination? I also asked them what their favorite essays were. Check out their answers
