As a young adult of nineteen, when Raisa Coen loses her father, she hardly expects to hear his voice -- let alone see visions of her dead uncles. She has, however, come to expect the murderous voices and threats from people with burning green eyes. Is she the only one that can see them? Her music helps her hold on to what sanity she has. Then she meets a charismatic boy with vibrant energy around him that she has never seen before. Can she trust her best friend Corli with the things that happen to her? After all, Corli has a golden mist hovering over her that must be good, right? Fate, or destiny, quickly brings Raisa together with the boy, Devon Castaneda, and their friends, Pen and Corli. Prophetic dreams, chance encounters, a television show featuring a psychic medium, an unusual and powerful earthquake, visitations from spirits, a dangerous road trip, fighting the evil people they now call "bruels" and - death; all take place to lead this small group of friends to fight against a ruthless evil and follow the clues prepared for them. Is what they must do too horrible to consider? The psychic says that they must. It has been his whole life's purpose. Nosh, the servant of evil, thinks that human-kind should be saved. But to what end? The degradation of society is barely noticeable at its slow pace of descent, but Devon is keenly aware of it. Which side will he choose?Emotional and gripping, gritty and thought provoking, this intensely entertaining fantasy, romance adventure takes readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end.

Sometimes fear and shyness can isolate us from the world. This tender story, printed on stone paper, reminds us of the importance of believing in yourself and in true friendship.Valeria is a little bunny who loves learning new things and go to school. She has a great time counting all the fingers of her hand and pronouncing the names of the colors of a sparkling rainbow. However, Valeria is very very shy and she tries not to stand down by speaking softly that hardly anyone could hear her. She didn’t know the power that was in her laugh, and she held it in, so it wouldn’t escape, the strength of her hugs and her kisses, which she kept all to herself.Valeria always walked looking down at the ground, and that's why she never stumbled! She recognized all of her classmates not by their faces… but by their shoes! But when she least expects it, her inseparable hat flies away, and then Valeria is forced to look up and watch everything that she had missed up to that moment.A veces el miedo y la timidez nos aíslan del mundo. Esta hermosa historia, impresa en papel de piedra, nos recuerda la importancia de creer en uno mismo y en la verdadera amistad. Valeria es una pequeña conejita que le encanta aprender e ir a la escuela. Se lo pasa en grande contando con todos los dedos de su mano y decir en voz alta los nombres de los colores que conforman el arcoíris. Sin embargo, Valeria es muy muy tímida y por eso intenta llamar la atención lo menos posible y hablar bajito para que no la oigan. No sabía el poder que tenía su risa y la sujetaba con firmeza para no dejarla escapar, ni tampoco conocía la fuerza que llevaban su beso y su abrazo, por eso los mantenía bien guardados.Valeria siempre caminaba mirando al suelo ¡y por eso nunca tropezaba! Conocía a todos sus compañeros de clase no por sus caras… ¡sino por sus zapatos! Pero cuando menos se lo espera, su inseparable sombrero echa a volar, y entonces Valeria se ve obligada a echar la vista hacia arriba y contemplar todo lo que se había perdido hasta ese momento.

A publication chronicling a new sound art project led by the bestselling author of Lost Children Archive and The Story of My Teeth, Valeria Luiselli, with Ricardo Giraldo and Leo Heiblum Echoes from the Borderlands is a timely, poignant exploration of the US–Mexico border, its flora, fauna and mix of urban and natural landscapes. In this series of sound studies, Valeria Luiselli, Ricardo Giraldo and Leo Heiblum deploy deep research and multiple sonic layers—field recordings, archival materials, interviews and deft compositional choices—to examine issues such as genocide, reproductive rights, environmental destruction and more. In Study One: Call You When I Get Home, readers are taken on a journey from the Pacific Ocean near San Diego and Tijuana to West Texas, encountering Indigenous peoples, tourists, miners, historical reenactors and contemporary thinkers, along with a chorus of imagined personas who provide insightful commentary along the way. Readers can engage with this sonic documentary-fiction through the libretto featured in this chapbook and, for an immersive experience, listen to the audio via an embedded QR code.
