Book Description
From bestselling author of The Book of Delights and award-winning poet, a book of lyrical mini-essays celebrating the everyday that will inspire readers to rediscover the joys in the world around us. In Ross Gay’s new collection of small, daily wonders, again written over the course of a year, one of America’s most original voices continues his ongoing investigation of delight. For Gay, what delights us is what connects us, what gives us meaning, from the joy of hearing a nostalgic song blasting from a passing car to the pleasure of refusing the “nefarious” scannable QR code menus, from the tiny dog he fell hard for to his mother baking a dozen kinds of cookies for her grandchildren. As always, Gay revels in the natural world—sweet potatoes being harvested, a hummingbird carousing in the beebalm, a sunflower growing out of a wall around the cemetery, the shared bounty from a neighbor’s fig tree—and the trillion mysterious ways this glorious earth delights us. The Book of (More) Delights is a volume to savor and share.

Book Description
"In Sweet Revenge: The Wicked Delights of Getting Even, Regina Barreca takes us on a romp through the landscape of contemporary culture as she explores the dynamics of revenge, illustrating how revenge is meted out for everything from a ruined relationship to a ruined tablecloth. With her trademark humor and intelligence, Barreca reminds us that we are sold revenge everyday in steady doses from advertising slogans like Clairol's Gorgeous Hair Is the Best Revenge to the stories of retribution that become box office hits such as Thelma & Louise, The Fugitive, and Fatal Attraction." "We deny it and we're ashamed of it, but revenge is - and always has been - one of the strongest unspoken emotions of the human experience and a motivating force in almost everyone's life. Barreca manages to find universal truths in the complexities of revenge as she entertains and charms us."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
