Kredler C: The Little Baby Star

The Little Baby Star

A book for families of angel babies

A lively, useful introduction to reproductive justice for anyone seeking clarity in a post-Roe world, from the author whose work was named by Oprah Daily as one of the "The 12 Books You Need to Read Post the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade Smackdown" "We must do better than Roe, because Roe was never enough to provide a fair and just reproductive future for the majority of Americans." --from the introduction While reproduction is a private act, the policies around it have public consequences. Often, the elites who make policies have engaged in reproductive control of people deemed unfit to have families (usually poor and/or people of color). Reproductive justice as a concept and movement turns our attention to the contradictions embedded in the policy landscape and advocates for broad-based bodily autonomy that supports people across the span of their reproductive lives in avoiding pregnancy, in conceiving a child, and in bearing and parenting children. Reproductive justice is not a variation of "choice" rhetoric that narrows reproductive experiences to abortion but is based on a foundational lesson learned by many communities of color over time: if you do not have control over your body, you do not have control over your life. Historically, ignoring vulnerable people's reproductive experiences eventually opened the door to many more people's reproduction being restricted, as we are seeing today. We can do better than Roe because we all deserve more than Roe ever promised: better contraception options for women and men, affordable fertility treatments, decent maternal health care for women of color, paid parental and family leave, and subsidized child care. The former board co-chair of Access Reproductive Justice, Zakiya Luna points to ways that communities are imagining and winning victories beyond Roe, to the benefit of everyone.

Roe Was Never Enough

In this "uniquely enchanting debut" (Entertainment Weekly) a marine biologist makes the discovery of a lifetime when called to rescue the inhabitants of a small Maine island facing down a giant, glowing jellyfish. As featured in People ∙ Entertainment Weekly ∙ NPR ∙ Marie Claire ∙ Katie Couric Media ∙ and more! Dr. Jo Ness prefers jellyfish to people. Her best friend, Aldo, was the exception, but he died seven months ago. So she spends her days hidden away at an underfunded aquarium with her specimens and a draft of the jellyfish guide she and Aldo had been working on together. His voice is alive in the notes in the margins, and it’s enough. Almost. Until she receives a call from Nadia, one of the few other humans she’s loved but whom she hasn’t heard from in years, asking for her help. Nadia tells her a grand tale of a giant jellyfish terrorizing her tiny island off the coast of Maine and sends a grainy video of the creature. Frankly, the footage looks fake, but Jo drops everything to fly across the country to see Nadia again, and to find this supposed sea beast. She couldn’t save Aldo, but perhaps she can help Nadia. But when Jo arrives on Shattering Point, Nadia is nowhere to be found, and the islanders she meets each have something different to say about the creature they’ve dubbed Clementine . . . a jellyfish who changes all who see it. At turns an ode to classic sea monster stories and a vibrant tale of human connection, The Jellyfish Problem is an unforgettable debut that announces a new talent.

The Jellyfish Problem

'By turns bloody, sweet, bleak and joyful... It is also very, very funny' NEW STATESMANThis is a graphic memoir (like a graphic novel, but true - and also a bit graphic).It's about the delirium, chaos and strangeness of becoming a parent for the first time.It's for every one who has ever wondered if it's ok to cry when the baby cries - and also laugh, snort, lie on the floor naked and drool when the baby drools.This is definitely not a parenting manual, but it might be the only book about parenting you'll ever need.'You will cry, yes, but mainly snort with laughter' SUNDAY TIMES'The most accurate account of becoming a parent I have ever read' PHILIPPA PERRY'Bracingly truthful... very funny' OBSERVER'It made me laugh, weep, cheer and howl... essential reading for parents and their peers.' NELL FRIZZELL'So clever, so funny, so astute, so healing. Becky Barnicoat is a stone cold genius' LUCY JONES

Cry When the Baby Cries

An Untalented Mr. Ripley, a Dumb American Psycho: A young man combines boundless self-confidence with perpetual failure and ineptitude as he tries to manipulate his way into a better life, preying on women in New York City in the early ’90s. Robert Doughten Savile, aka “Doughty,” is the son of a once-wealthy, now hard-up family from Darien, Connecticut. Doughty lives in a perpetual cloud of delusion, convinced of his own genius and status. While he has little capacity to accurately assess his own abilities or prospects, he cruises through life on the sheer force of his own sense of entitlement, dropping out of college and landing in the early ’90s in New York City, a place brimming with both prosperity and desperation. He cons his way from a bed at the YMCA into the posh Soho loft of a middle-aged book editor, while pursuing a young bartender, whom he also abuses and gaslights. He spins elaborate tales about his imaginary high-power job in real estate while, in reality, he passes his days watching comedy specials on VHS, smoking crack in Tompkins Square Park, and engaging in occasional sex work in the restrooms of Grand Central Station. His many failures, however, only serve to sharpen his one true gift: Doughty is a skilled predator, and the damage he inflicts on the women around him is real and remorseless. As shocking as it is illuminating, The Stalker confirms Paula Bomer as a contemporary master of the pitch-black comic novel.

The multi-award winning literary phenomenon, translated by Booker Prize-shortlisted Megan McDowell

Six seconds. A man falling. An image that haunts her forever.

Returning to the Mexico of their childhood, Diego's sister is plagued with questions, beset with crippling grief and guilt. As she struggles to get her head and her heart around her brother's death, she sees the life they shared anew. Here she tells their story: that of the poor, the exploited, the outsider far from home, with quiet power and vibrant prose. As she does so, she asks herself how well she really knew the boy she tried so hard to raise. And what, in the end, makes a life worth living?

Rippled through with flashes of dark humour, Eating Ashes is a heartbreaking examination of home, of loneliness and belonging, separation and loss, from a critically acclaimed Latin American novelist.

The Bitter End

New York City, East Village, 1984. A young woman with the power to see the ghosts of her friends is haunted by the one who refuses to return—a dazzling, big-hearted debut of friendship and community during a time of devastation and defiance. Oprah Daily’s #1 Pick for Summer Reading ONE OF DEBUTIFUL'S BEST DEBUTS OF THE YEAR SO FAR: “Adler has her finger on the pulse of humanity, humor, and a damn good haunting plot.” “Waiting on a Friend is Natalie Adler’s first novel but, already, I’d argue she can do what greats like Ann Patchett, Patrick Ryan and Celeste Ng do. . . . A terrific read and an exciting promise of more to come.”—Minneapolis Star Tribune “I slowed my pace finishing Waiting on a Friend, because I didn’t want the novel to end. . . . [A] rich and intimate narrative.”—The Boston Globe “A wildly inventive and moving novel . . . an astonishingly brilliant debut.”—Patrick Ryan, author of Buckeye “A beautiful study of friendship, of how loss unmoors us, and how if we keep turning towards love, anything is possible.”—Ann Napolitano, author of Hello Beautiful “Fresh and refreshing, both heartbreaking and uplifting. Natalie Adler has given us a gem.”—Rabih Alameddine, winner of the National Book Award “[A] powerhouse debut . . . This dazzles like a mirror ball.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) “Spellbinding.”—Library Journal (starred review) A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR: Oprah Daily, Time, Debutiful, Lit Hub, Publishers Lunch Renata is a young dyke-about-town who can see ghosts, something she's doing more and more of lately as too many of her friends are dying of a new, terrifying disease. When Renata's best friend Mark dies of complications from AIDS, Renata is devastated by the loss of the person she loved most in the world. And to her disappointment and increasing despair, Mark seems unwilling or unable to return for the proper goodbye they both were denied. While Renata waits anxiously for Mark, she must stay vigilant: a mysterious, police-like force has begun ridding their East Village neighborhood of anything abnormal or inexplicable. What first seems like a scam reveals itself to be far more sinister, targeting the soul of Renata's community. With her band of lovably eccentric pals and lovers, Renata is determined to fight back against the erasure of her friends' memories and the sanitizing of her beloved New York. But haunting her every step is Mark, the one ghost who stubbornly refuses to reappear. Both heartbreaking and healing, tragic and triumphant, Waiting on a Friend is a magical retelling of queer history and a celebration of youth and camaraderie. With pathos and humor, empathy and an edge, Natalie Adler freshly reimagines the past for a new generation, reclaiming the spirit of resistance and determination that would become one of the era's defining legacies.
