At the height of the foreclosure crisis, single mother Crystal loses more than her house. She struggles to stay positive, though with plenty of help from a roommate with conspiracy theories, a motivational speaker with a secret, and her colleagues at the local Saturn dealership. But optimism is no match for a bad economy, and before long Crystal’s desperate quest to regain what she’s lost turns into the fight of her life. This darkly comic thriller explores just how far we’ll go to get back what’s ours.
Turn with me to the Gospel of John chapters 11 & 12 and you will find therein a very rare spiritual treat. In chapter 11 you will see what the Lord Jesus was to the family at Bethany; and in chapter 12 you will see what the family at Bethany was to the Lord Jesus. This booklet is full of the most precious instruction.
In secret, all Bethany wanted, was a new gown for her birthday ball. Her brother, Daniel, insisted upon escorting her to the big city of Wellington. She should feel ecstatic, after all, the gown was for a grand ball But, on February 16th, 2564, she would be officially old enough, to be considered...a spinster Their trip came to an abrupt stop when Lord Andrews intercepts them, requesting Daniel's immediate assistance. Daniel, a Corpsman, did not hesitate to accept, while Bethany was quickly swept away to Lord Andrews's home to await their return. Fear washed over Bethany when Lord Andrews returned, covered in blood, and without her brother Lord Andrews and his wife, Rebecca, immediately escorted Bethany to Wellington to be by her brother's bedside. Once there, Bethany unexpectedly found herself helping the Doctor as his Nurse. One patient, in particular, Colonel McInnis, a widower with two small children, had a temper so hot, that he regularly decorated Bethany's day dresses with oatmeal Even so, something about him called to her. Perhaps it was the sadness in his eyes? Whatever it was, when it came time for Daniel to go home, leaving the Doctor and the Colonel behind was harder than she thought. She believed she would never see them again. Little did she know...everything...was about to change

“Language itself, viewed as intrinsically racialized, is Bethany Collins’ primary material.” –Holland Cotter, New York Times The work of Chicago-based conceptualist Bethany Collins (born 1984) examines personal, bureaucratic, lyrical and literary language for its racial biases and failures. While straddling multiple mediums, Collins’ practice frequently finds expression through artist’s books. This publication accompanies her survey exhibition at University Galleries of Illinois State University and features dozens of paintings, drawings, prints, sculptures, artist’s books and performances created from 2012 to 2021. Examples include Black and Blue Dictionary, for which she methodically erased all terms related to the colors black and blue in a dictionary; America: A Hymnal, for which she researched and reproduced 100 different versions of the song “My Country ’Tis of Thee,” laser-cutting and burning the unifying musical notations; and A Pattern or Practice, an installation of 91 blind-embossed prints featuring text from the US Department of Justice report on the Ferguson, Missouri, Police Department.
