Mann Charles C.: True West / LF

True West

The Crown’s Silence

A smart, savage and hilarious debut exploring love, sexuality, purpose - and the delicious absurdities of online life ?For fans of Patricia Lockwood and Alexandra Tanner ... A tale of internet longing and obsession that leads to self-discovery' OurCulture ________________________________________________ Elsa is struggling. Her formative, exhilarating relationship - with an older couple - has abruptly ended, leaving her depressed and directionless in her childhood bedroom. In the relationship's wake, Elsa scrolls aimlessly through the internet in search of meaning. Faithfully, her screen provides a new obsession: a charismatic young actor whose latest feature is a gay love story that illuminates Elsa's crisis. And then, as if she had conjured him, the actor arrives in her hometown, with an entourage of fellow actors, writers, and directors, for the annual theatre festival. When she is hired at the one upscale restaurant in town, Elsa finds herself thrown into in contact with the actor and his circle. But her obsession shifts from the actor to his frequent dinner companion - an alluring, androgynous person called Sam. As this confusing connection develops, Elsa is forced to grapple with her sexuality, the uncomfortable truths about the end of her last relationship, and the patterns that may be playing out once again. Unflinchingly sharp and funny, Misrecognition is an unforgettable debut novel about the internet, post-postmodern adulthood and queer identity. ?Quick, playful, self-deprecating ... Newbound's real skill is in dialogue' Times Literary Supplement Readers love Misrecognition ?Pure messy queerness and I absolutely adored it' ?My ideal kind of beach read' ?Imagine a mix of Emma Cline, Marlowe Granados, and Sally Rooney... Highly recommend'

A Real Negro Girl explores the life and career of performing artist, writer, and civil and human rights activist Fredi Washington. Although Washington is largely unknown today, during the early decades of the twentieth century, she was a movie star who was a household name in the black community and well-known in mainstream America and abroad.

Fredi Washington and the New Negro Renaissance

A Real Negro Girl

This timely and engaging account of how the president relates to political parties helps us understand how contemporary presidents have polarized the electorate, helped drive a wedge between Republicans and Democrats in Congress, put a strong partisan imprint upon the executive branch, and seek to get their message out through partisan media outlets. Partisan presidents in the new era are far less interested in neutral competence and instead use the national party committees as tools of governance.

From Reagan to Obama

The Partisan Presidency

A behind-the-scenes look into US efforts to contain North Korea’s nuclear capabilities and why they have not worked &nbsp; For almost four decades, the United States has tried to halt North Korea’s march to build nuclear weapons and the missiles to deliver them. Joel S. Wit, a former State Department official, takes readers to the front lines of nuclear negotiations, to fierce policy debates and secret diplomatic gambits, recounting how perilously close the United States and North Korea have come, on various occasions, to nuclear confrontation. Based on more than three hundred interviews with officials in Washington, Beijing, and Seoul, as well as with the author’s contacts in North Korea, this book chronicles how six American presidents have approached the problem of North Korea. &nbsp; Wit points to Barack Obama and Donald Trump as the two presidents most responsible for the failure to halt the march to nuclear capability, since it was under their successive tenures that North Korea acquired the ability to threaten every city in North America. Wit also offers an unparalleled portrait of Kim Jong Un that refutes his caricature as impulsive and illogical. Like his father and his grandfather, Kim is a ruthless despot, but he is also a canny and informed negotiator determined to secure his dictatorship’s future by exploring diplomacy or, failing that, by building a nuclear arsenal.

An exploration of the relationship between early modern travel literature and English nationalism, this book's primary goal is to assess the response of early modern readers to the nationalist sentiments in Richard Hakluyt's Principal Navigations. Matthew Day contends that Hakluyt's collection shaped nationalist thinking, ideas, and notions of identity; and that it influenced nationalist policies and actions in a number of key areas, including politics, navigation, exploration and trade.

The remarkable story of one of humankind's most far-reaching, dynamic and brutal experimentsThis superb book begins in 1511 with the shipwreck of two Spanish sailors in Yucatán. Only ten years later an army of European adventurers and indigenous rebels seized the island city of Tenochtitlán, seat of one of the world's great empires. The capture of the future Mexico City marked the collision of two long-separated worlds, radically different in everything from biota to urban planning. Spaniards discovered tomatoes, chocolate, and the most sophisticated city they had ever seen. Mexicans discovered horses, wheels, and lethal germs. Gillingham chronicles the cataclysmic century of disease, brought from afar, that killed a majority of the indigenous population and led to a startling recombination of cultures. The industrial mining of Mexico's silver transformed the wealth and trade of the world. Mexico's independence from Spain went on to bring a calamitous war with the United States, one of the first great social revolutions and a one-party government that, whatever its shortcomings, brought peace for Mexicans throughout many of the global horrors of the twentieth century before the country itself collapsed into violence in the 2000s. A pleasure to read, Mexico: A History uses the latest research to dazzling effect, showing how often Mexico has been a dynamic and vital shaper of world affairs.
