The Couch Potato

An adoptive parent and historian delves into the differences of families made by law, not biology-- and shows us the deep value of those differences Adoption touches on some of our most vexing social questions, about race and sexuality, abortion rights, economic inequality, even foreign policy and global poverty. More than that, it prods us in tender places, reminding us of our own questions about belonging and separation, identity and alienation, our worries about what is determined by fate and what is freely choose. Blending personal memoir, history, and broader reflection on American culture, Ordinary Days and Tender Places offers a fresh take on adoption. As an historian and an adoptive parent, Bendroth takes seriously the criticisms and the personal pain many adoptees face, but she also invites readers to take a bigger view. This book asks us to turn the mirror on ourselves and consider the peculiarities of what we consider “normal” family life. In the end, our questions and controversies obscure a basic fact: raising children born to someone else is a time-honored human practice. In the past and in many cultures today, our modern American ideal, the two-parent biologically-related nuclear family, is an oddity. Within the long history of humanity our ideas about kinship and our beliefs about what constitutes a “normal” household are surprisingly narrow and, in the end, not all that helpful. Bendroth introduces readers to new ways of thinking about adoption, exploring the history of American families and children as well as fascinating findings by biologists and evolutionary anthropologists about kinship practices, genetics and inheritance, even motherhood itself. This is, in other words, a book about adoption and much more. It is an invitation to readers to reflect on their own lives, to think deeply about our human need to connect, to love, and belong.

INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER! A "traditional wife" influencer allows a demonic creature to impregnate her in this unnerving horror novel, perfect for fans of Nightbitch and Mary, from the author of Serial Killer Support Group. Every #tradwife needs a baby. She’ll get one at any cost. When Camille Deming isn’t cooking, cleaning, or homesteading in her picture-perfect country farmhouse, she’s posting about her tradwife lifestyle for her online followers. She takes inspiration from other tradwives on social media, aspiring to be like them, but Camille’s missing a key component: a baby. And contrary to what she posts online, things with her husband, Graham, have been strained. Pressured by her eager followers, Camille fears that without a baby, her relationship will suffer and her social media will never grow out of its infancy. When Camille discovers a mysterious, decrepit well in the wheatfield behind her house, she makes a wish for a baby. Afterward, she has unsettling experiences that she convinces herself are angelic in nature, and when she’s visited one night by a strange creature, her wish comes true.&nbsp; Camille’s pregnancy announcement gets more engagement than anything she’s ever posted—so what if Graham’s reaction is lukewarm? Camille’s life is finally falling into place. Never mind that her pregnancy is developing freakishly rapidly and she’s suddenly craving raw meat. Being a traditional wife is worth it. Rosemary’s Baby for the digital age, this disturbing horror novel is one you’ll want to devour in just one bite.

A Hole in The Sky

FANTASIOSO, ROMÁNTICO, TÍMIDO Y PEREZOSO: SI ERES MUY DE FELIPE, ESTE LIBRO ES PARA TI. «Los personajes de Quino trascienden cualquier geografía, edad y condición social.' -Acta del jurado del Premio Príncipe de Asturias «¿No sería hermoso el mundo si las bibliotecas fueran más importantes que los bancos?'. Con esa convicción de lector y esa inocencia desbordada, se presenta Felipe, el tímido soñador de las tiras de Mafalda. Paladín del aplazamiento, conviven en él la ternura y la pereza, el miedo y la bondad, una imaginación sin límites y un rechazo casi filosófico al colegio. Por eso tantos lectores se han reconocido en su extraordinaria humanidad y en su celebérrima pregunta existencial: «¿Justo a mí tenía que tocarme ser como yo?'. Lo mejor de Felipe reúne las tiras más memorables de uno de los personajes más queridos de las tiras de Mafalda, y es el primer volumen de una serie que irá reuniendo los mejores momentos de cada uno de los personajes de la inolvidable pandilla. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION FANTASTICAL, ROMANTIC, SHY, AND LAZY: IF YOU'RE A BIG FAN OF FELIPE, THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU. "Quino's characters transcend geography, age, and social status." -Minutes of the Prince of Asturias Award jury "Wouldn't the world be beautiful if libraries were more important than banks?" With that conviction as a reader and that overflowing innocence, Felipe, the shy dreamer from the Mafalda comic strips, introduces himself. A champion of procrastination, he embodies tenderness and laziness, fear and kindness, boundless imagination, and an almost philosophical rejection of school. That is why so many readers have recognized themselves in his extraordinary humanity and his famous existential question: "Did it have to be me who turned out the way I did?" The Best of Felipe brings together the most memorable strips of one of the most beloved characters in the Mafalda comic strips, and is the first volume in a series that will bring together the best moments of each of the characters in the unforgettable gang.

Solomon Kane: Suffer The Witch

In this unique collection of essays, published writers offer an intimate view of how their work has been informed, shaped and transformed by their literary, political, philosophical or personal influences. Providing models of the critical commentaries that all students of creative writing must write, each essay from contemporary authors of fiction, creative non-fiction, poetry, scripts and digital writing demonstrates how what writers write is determined by what they have read, and what they read is then determined by what they are writing. As writers reflect on their process of moving from sources of inspiration to a finished and original piece of writing, they reveal their anxieties, passions, discoveries and motivations, offering fascinating insights into the imagination's journey. Introductory chapters explore why writers reflect on their own work, and place this practice in wider contexts, offering theoretical frameworks for understanding process, influence, and inspiration. As illuminating for aspiring writers as it is for students reflecting on their research and process as part of writing courses, Creative Writing and the Critical Commentary will change the way writers talk about and engage with other texts.

Creative Writing and the Critical Commentary

Was macht eine, die aus einem Ort namens Tittenkofen stammt, aber nicht so ausschaut? Die auf dem Bauernhof aufwächst, aber eigentlich auf die Bühne will? Klar, sie nimmt's mit Humor und wird Komikerin. Monika Gruber erinnert sich in ihrem Buch an ihre Kindheit und Jugend auf dem Land bei Erding. Sie erzählt teils bitterböse, teils rührend-nostalgische Geschichten, in denen sie grantelt, witzelt, schwelgt und auch lästert, aber nie denunziert, denn dazu liebt sie Land und Leute zu sehr.
 

 In dieser komplett überarbeiteten und um mehrere Kapitel ergänzten Neuauflage finden auch die Jahre seit der Erstauflage ihren Platz. So viel sei verraten: Es war nicht immer lustig! Aber wir können sicher sein - lustig wird's dennoch!
