Reginald Gibbons
Sweetbitter: A Novel

2003 y.
Publisher: Louisiana State University Press
Description: Gibbons`s first novel takes place in east Texas in 1910 during the time of white rule-not by law but by lynch mob. Amid the suffocating racism and fear, half-Choctaw, half-white Reuben Sweetbitter and Martha Clarke, a white woman, fall in love. Forbidden to be seen together, they escape to the town of Harriet, where an influential friend of Martha helps them settle down and raise a family. Atypical of love stories, this realistic work maintains a historical perspective in lending the couple short-lived happiness. Martha`s brother James comes for vengance, and Reuben flees to the forest, which has always been his refuge from the white world. Reuben and Martha`s love is strong, but, dishearteningly, racism is stronger. Timely in the subject of interracial love, this authentic, richly detailed novel plumbs sacrifice, fear, and the loss of one`s identity, bringing the anguish of the two young lovers to life.

Claire Karssiens
Sweetgum Slough: A 1930s Florida Memoir

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Told with love and a profound appreciation for a time, place and people, this series of engaging vignettes explores six years in the life of a young girl in 1930s Florida. Nameless and faceless, the little girl wanders through these stories filled with curiosity and questions as she meets the ingenious people of the Great Depression in rural Florida. Although an outsider, she is quickly accepted by this strong, struggling and kindly community. She shares their simple joys, great tragedies and dark secrets. The rich tales in Sweetgum Slough are about the sweet and earthy roots of learning. While these stories are, indeed, about `joy and hookworms and red-taled fishes,` they are more about a child`s need for freedom to adventure, choose paths, take risks, examine and question. Claire Karssiens`s memoir is as unique as it is memorable. Her lyrical prose and stunning imagery beautifully capture 1930s Florida and will sweep you into the very heart of a little girl`s soul.

Publisher: —
Description: An evocative and richly imagined story of a British Muslim woman`s search for love and belonging in two very different worlds. When Lilly is eight years old, her pot-smoking hippie British parents leave her at a Sufi shrine in Morocco and inform her they will be back to collect her in three days. Three weeks later, she learns they`ve been murdered. Lilly fills that haunted hollow in her life with intense study and memorization of the Qur`an under the patient care of the Sufi saint`s disciple she was entrusted to. Years later, her journey from Morocco to Harar, Ethiopia, is half pilgrimage, half flight. In Harar, even her very traditional Muslim head scarves cannot hide her white skin in her new and strange surroundings, the word `farenji`--foreigner--is hissed at her everywhere she turns. She eventually builds a life for herself teaching children the Qur`an, and she finds herself falling in love with an idealistic young doctor. But the two are wrenched apart when Lilly is… [detailed...]

Sweety Pies: An Uncommon Collection of Womanish Observations, with Pie

2007 y.
Publisher: Taunton
Description: `Women sharpen women. I`m convinced that you can learn a lot about a woman based on what she feeds herself and the people she loves, a woman`s recipes--especially her prized recipes--are a revelation of who the woman is: what she thinks, how she behaves, what she values, and how she lives her life.` This is a collection of 70 such pie recipes, gathered from the women in author Patty Pinner`s life--family, friends, women who are part of her own personal history. What distinguishes this book is its utterly beguiling storytelling--each recipe is accompanied by a story told on the woman known for making the pie, from Sister Baby`s Buttermilk Pie to Miss Hatfield and Her Jelly Pies. It also filled with the truths handed down by our mothers (or that we wish had been handed down by our mothers) like: `An unhappy husband will ask for toasted snow` and `You don`t want a man who is jealous of nothing or everything.` This is a cookbook that`s about love, life, family, friendship, and community… [detailed...]

Publisher: Black Swan
Description: On a shimmeringly hot Sunday in May, the Delaneys open their pool to all the village for charity. Louise is there with her daughters Amelia and Katie - and glaring at her resentfully is her estranged husband Barnaby. This is supposed to be his day with the girls. But Louise ignores his angry glowers. While the children splash and shriek in the cool, blue waters, she lies blissfully back in the sun and dreams of Cassian, the charismatic new lawyer in her life. The day seems perfect. But suddenly the bliss is shattered, as tragedy strikes. And the consequences of a terrible accident develop into a drama of recriminations, jealousy and legal power-play, in which Louise finds herself pulled in three directions at once. Friendships crumble, the village is split, and the needs of a child become secondary to the dangerous contest in which the grown-ups are engaged. Формат: 12,5 см х 19,5 см. [detailed...]

Swimming Upstream : The Inside Cries of a Child

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThis is the autobiographical account of the life of a child named Queen, who was born to a mother who hated her from the moment of conception and did not even acknowledge her as a daughter. This child was abused both physically and mentally, unlike her younger brother and sister, who were favored and pampered. The fatherless family lived in grinding poverty. The young girl had to grow up quickly. She was often the only one who was providing for the family. In spite of her position as a virtual slave to the others, Queen was not appreciated by any of them. Her young adult years as a mother and eventually a wife were no less tumultuous. In spite of her mother`s tyrannical prohibition of her having any relationships with the opposite sex, Queen was raped while still a teenager and gave birth to her first child. The other men in her life, although they gave her children whom she loved very much, failed to provide her happiness and security. And always it seemed she could… [detailed...]

Swimming in Circles: Aquaculture and the End of Wild Oceans

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Expanding on the author`s year-long study of the shrimp and salmon aquaculture industries as an Alicia Patterson Foundation Fellow, the book lays out the rationale behind aquaculture development: increasing the world food supply and creating jobs in areas hard hit by declining landings in wild fisheries. However, reality is something else entirely: ravaged ecosystems and bankrupted local economies. The author expands on his existing case studies, near his homes in eastern Maine, and Sonora, Mexico, and links them to events in other parts of the world. The author`s 30 years experience in fisheries and aquaculture qualifies him to weigh the rhetoric and sift out the truth of this story. In six years as a freelance journalist, writing for the New York Times, Yankee, National Fisherman , and other publications, he has managed to describe complex material in an interesting and palatable style.
