Rich People in Santa Barbara: Two Novellas

Rare Bird Books

The intersecting worlds of the two novellas in Rich People in Santa Barbra are worlds of privilege, worlds with eerie shadows beneath the surface. In Montecito Peak, Barbara Palmer, who is very rich--"I was born lucky"--is a good mother to fourteen-year-old Betsy, the guiding light of Bird of Paradise Books, an involved member of the Concours d'Elegance committee. But emotionally she's treading water. Her husband is a peevish alcoholic. He's a terrible father. No one would think less of her if she divorced him. But he would still always be in her life being a drag. Then one day Barbara falls in love with Mike Brooke. A reciprocated love. The odious husband has to go. In The Polo Club, Lydia Graham is a garden designer who grew up in Montecito. Her husband is a longboard surfer who's good at making money. He's a great father to their fifteen-year-old daughter. It's a happy marriage. Then Hunter Evans, a man whom Lydia knew when she was fourteen and he was thirty-two, returns to Santa Barbara. Socially connected, still terribly attractive--and a dubious character--he rents a condo at the Polo Club. He understands Lydia all too well, and suddenly he's a danger to her marriage. This cannot be allowed.

California's central coast was fertile ground for hot rodding, and all motor sports in general, during the 1940s and 1950s. Hot Rodding in Santa Barbara County takes the reader back in time with a collection of remarkable photographs from the earliest days of the hot rod movement. This book includes images of the first drag strips in the country, rough-and-tumble jalopy racing, early road-racing action, and lots of great hot rods and customs. Follow local hot-rodders as they take trips to El Mirage dry lake and the world-famous salt flats at Bonneville, Utah, and visit a long-lost world as seen through photographs taken from the personal albums of people who contributed to the birth of a culture that would spread across the nation.

In the eighteenth winner of the Yale Drama Prize, the lives of four very different women collide on a Christmas Eve in Santa Fe “A good playwright has to have some personal sense of what language is for and why we use it. Stess seems to me to revel in its power to convey and map our interiors, to be the medium through which we shape the story we tell ourselves and call our life.”—Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, from the Foreword In this occasionally off-kilter and deeply honest play about isolation, resilience, and the healing power of community, Ariel Stess intertwines the lives of four women from different generations and social strata in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Kara wakes up to find her husband and children missing. Twenty-one-year-old Emma runs away with a married man. Barbara’s ex-lover breaks into her home in the middle of the night. And the pipes in Miranda’s house burst. Through a tapestry of internal monologues and scenes, KARA & EMMA & BARBARA & MIRANDA follows the journeys of four women whose major life crises collide on Christmas Eve, leading them to accidentally help each other find a way forward. The play, the 2025 winner of the Yale Drama Prize, was chosen by competition judge Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, a Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright.

Islam Und Mystik Bei Barbara Frischmuth: Werkanalyse Und Interreligieoses Lernen
Barbara Frischmuth vermittelt wie kaum eine andere Autorin den Islam auf epische Weise: In ihren Romanen stosst Orient auf Okzident, aussert sich durch das Leben, Lieben und Leiden der Protagonisten vor allem die Mystik des Alevitentums. Selma Polat-Menke liefert in der vorliegenden Studie eine grundliche Analyse der Darstellung des Islam in Frischmuths Romanen. Solch eine Entschlusselung birgt Chancen uber das epistemische Interesse hinaus: Frischmuths Werk - das zeigt insbesondere das abschliessende Kapitel dieses Buches - regt zu einer vertieften Auseinandersetzung mit dem Islam an und kann so als Ausgangspunkt fur interreligioses Lernen dienen.
