Peterson J: Revolution and
Counterrevolution in America

Revolution and Counterrevolution in America

For fans of the Legendary Alston Boys, an uproarious contemporary adventure story with a dash of fantasy about two friends who start a non-singing duo, go viral, and become unlikely international rock stars, bringing mindfulness to the middle school masses.At Visalia Middle School, nothing exciting ever happens. For Jason and Sean, eating candy at recess and dreaming of a future filled with fame and fortune is usually the highlight of their day. But when Sean stumbles across a video of a composer’s deliberately silent performance piece, the boys come up with an idea for a musical act that performs non-songs. And when a video of their first concert goes viral, the duo suddenly finds their dreams of stardom coming true—despite their lack of any musical talent.Soon they’re off on a globe-trotting adventure where, with the help of a cockatiel translator and an eleven-year-old talent agent, they unintentionally popularize the concept of quiet mindfulness and discover that fame can be fickle, but friendship is forever.

“[A] spectacular collection. . . . A staggering sense of empathy infuses the stories. With its range of voices and styles, this puts Erdrich’s powers on full display.” — Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)From Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award-winning author Louise Erdrich, a captivating collection of short storiesIt was as though I was chosen—marked out by the python’s kiss for wisdom or maybe sorrow. Or perhaps, I think now, a sense of the ridiculous in extremes of experience. Also, I hoped for a long life.Written over the past two decades, Louise Erdrich’s magnificent story collection features a range of characters—a tribal newsletter editor whose son tells her a story that nothing in her experience can encompass, immigrant farmers whose tenuous hold on the earth, and sanity, is challenged, and ordinary people, bird lovers, artists, grade-school teachers, and romantics. A girl decides to spend her life with a stone. A man is confronted with a folk-singing thief. A woman enters a corporately owned afterlife to seek revenge on her father.Accompanied by specially commissioned artwork by Aza Erdrich Abe—an intimate and revelatory creative collaboration between mother and daughter—these stories offer an oppor­tunity to celebrate the wisdom and brilliant, wide-ranging imagination of one of America’s most important writers.

Dear Manny

A limited hardcover deluxe edition of the modern classic Pachinko—named one of the New York Times' 100 Best Books of the 21st Century—following four generations of a poor Korean immigrant family fighting to control their destiny in 20th-Century Japan. Features: <ul><li> New hardcover jacket with special effects </li><li> Four-color specially designed endpapers </li><li> Specially designed foil stamped case </li><li> Stenciled edges </li><li> Ribbon bookmark </li></ul> History is seldom kind. In Min Jin Lee’s acclaimed and magisterial novel, four generations of a poor, proud immigrant family fight to control their destinies while exiled from their homeland. In the early 1900s, teenaged Sunja, the adored daughter of a fisherman, falls for a wealthy stranger at the seashore near her home in Korea. He promises her the world, but when she discovers she is pregnant—and that her lover is married—she refuses to bend to his will. Instead she accepts an offer of marriage from a gentle minister passing through on his way to Japan. But her decision to abandon her home and reject her son’s powerful father sets off a dramatic saga that will echo down through generations. Richly told and profoundly moving, Pachinko is a story of love, sacrifice, ambition, and loyalty. From bustling street markets to the halls of one of Japan’s finest universities to pachinko parlors and the criminal underworld, Lee’s complex and passionate characters—resilient, fierce women, devoted sisters, bright sons, fathers shaken by moral crises—survive and flourish against the indifferent arc of history.

Seventeen-year-old Nick Carrington wants nothing more than to leave Greenwood, Oklahoma, behind and make a name for himself in the papers. But when tragedy strikes, dreams turn into a twisted reality. Forced to start anew in Harlem, only a letter of acceptance from the prestigious West Egg Academy is able to pull him back into the world.But the supposedly integrated private boys’ school is more of a catchy headline than a fact, with the same prejudices Nick left behind back home.

Can they not only fight back but triumph? Or will the powers that be win yet again? <ul><li>The Great Gatsby Romance You Deserved: Subtext takes center stage in this slow-burn reimagining where Nick and Jay finally get their shot. </li><li>Rewrite the American Dream: In a world where the scales are never balanced, falling for each other might be Nick and Jay’s boldest rebellion yet. </li></ul>

Bellinger Sisters

AN INSTANT #1&nbsp;NEW YORK TIMES&nbsp;AND #1&nbsp;USA TODAY&nbsp;BESTSELLERNow available in a gorgeous hardcover Deluxe Collector’s Edition, Hook, Line, and Sinker, featuring sprayed edges with stenciled artwork, full-color designed endpapers, and a foil stamped case.In this fan favorite follow-up to&nbsp;It Happened One Summer, Tessa Bailey delivers another deliciously fun rom-com about a former player who accidentally falls for his best friend while trying to help her land a different man.King crab fisherman Fox&nbsp;Thornton&nbsp;has a reputation as a&nbsp;sexy, carefree flirt. Everyone knows he’s a guaranteed good time—in bed and out—and that’s exactly how he prefers it. Until he meets Hannah Bellinger. She’s immune to his charm and looks, but she seems to enjoy his… personality? And wants to be&nbsp;friends? Bizarre. But he likes her too much to risk a fling, so platonic pals it is.Now, Hannah’s in town for work, crashing in Fox’s spare bedroom. She knows he’s a notorious ladies’ man, but they’re definitely&nbsp;just friends. In fact, she’s nursing a hopeless crush on a colleague and Fox is just the person to help with her lackluster love life. Armed with a few tips from Westport’s resident Casanova, Hannah sets out to catch her coworker’s eye… yet the more time she spends with Fox, the more she wants him instead. As the line between friendship and flirtation begins to blur, Hannah can’t deny she loves everything about Fox, but she refuses to be another notch on his bedpost.&nbsp;Living with his best friend should have been easy. Except now she’s walking around in a towel, sleeping right across the hall, and Fox is fantasizing about waking up next to her for the rest of his life and… and… man overboard! He’s fallen for her, hook, line, and sinker. Helping her flirt with another guy is pure torture, but maybe if Fox&nbsp;can tackle his inner demons and show Hannah he’s all in, she’ll choose him instead?

International Studies in the Theory of Private Law

This book analyses what elements of legal regulation would best resolve the longstanding issues of imposition of terms and unfair terms in boilerplate 'contracts of adhesion'. The problem is not a new one, first recognised by Sir Frederick Pollock, but it has persisted over the intervening years. So though the question is a longstanding one, the answer provided by the book is truly innovative. It adopts a 'law in context' methodology to offer solutions. The new methodological approach is combined with insights from global regulatory theory and cutting edge solutions such as private collectivised proceedings and remedies, streamlined adjudication, and administrative enforcement systems. It takes a global approach, looking at models in the US, Canada, the UK, and the EU. As the use of boilerplates is set only to increase as privatisation and globalisation spread, the answers provided by this book are much needed.

Mar dei Sargassi

Nel suo romanzo d'esordio, Shugri Said Salh narra della propria esperienza di vita in un racconto che copre la distanza tra due continenti e un arco temporale di circa quarant'anni: dall'infanzia e l'adolescenza in Somalia, la sua terra natia, alla travagliata fuga dal paese in seguito allo scoppio della guerra civile sul finire degli anni Ottanta, fino all'arrivo in Nord America con un visto da rifugiata. In una società basata su un rigido sistema di clan patrilineare e in cui troppe figlie femmine sono considerate un fardello, a soli sei anni Shugri viene affidata all'amatissima nonna materna nomade, la quale le infonde un'incancellabile resilienza nel periodo di vita condivisa nel deserto somalo. Quest'ultimo rappresenta, infatti, una cornice spazio-temporale di esistenza e formazione a cui l'autrice guarda tutt'oggi con nostalgia dalla prospettiva della sua attuale vita suburbana in California. Ciò non negando la cruda asperità dell'esistenza nomade né evitando di criticare gli aspetti tradizionali più problematici di una cultura (quella somala pre-guerra civile) di cui Salh tenta simultaneamente di celebrare la ricchezza, mantenere vivo il ricordo e promuovere la conoscenza.
