Book Description
In these nine evocative essays, Barbara Hurd explores the seductive allure of bogs, swamps, and wetlands. Hurd's forays into the land of carnivorous plants, swamp gas, and bog men provide fertile ground for rich thoughts about mythology, literature, Eastern spirituality, and human longing. In her observations of these muddy environments, she finds ample metaphor for human creativity, 9imagination, and fear.

Book Description
Lizzy wasn't looking for anything in particular in the attic - she just needed a break from bickering with her mother. Having always loved the dusty eaves of their home, she thought it the perfect hiding place. But after she unearths her ancestor Elizabeth's diary from an old leather trunk, Lizzy soon discovers that there's more to tackle in her family's hidden corners than she can manage alone... In her detailed diaries, Elizabeth reveals her heartrending story of The Smell of Mud, the seedy underbelly of a woman's life once everything has been stripped away from her. After the brutal murder of her husband and child, Elizabeth is left destitute, devastated and utterly alone in 1880s rural Montana. With few resources and fewer choices, she makes her way to the male dominated mining town of Granite, MT, where she meets a group of similarly downtrodden women. Elizabeth quickly realizes that her empathy makes her uniquely qualified to help these women, and she attempts to forge a communal home for them, a place where they can earn fair wages and recover from their difficult pasts. But living in this house comes at a price: the women in Elizabeth's employ work in the world's oldest profession, side-by-side, servicing the miners. Although her courage is tested daily as she copes with the suppressed memories of her family, dignity compels Elizabeth to seek a brighter future for herself and her brave charges. In the face of self-loathing and bitter shame, the misunderstood madam pens the emotionally-charged stories of the struggles these women are forced to endure. Ultimately, her confidence helps them to learn trust, compassion and respect as the means to heal their wounds.

Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER Soon to be a major motion picture "Jon Swift + Witches of Eastwick + Kelly 'Get In Trouble' Link + Mean Girls + Creative Writing Degree Hell! No punches pulled, no hilarities dodged, no meme unmangled! O Bunny you are sooo genius!" —Margaret Atwood, via Twitter "A wild, audacious and ultimately unforgettable novel." —Michael Schaub, Los Angeles Times "Awad is a stone-cold genius." —Ann Bauer, The Washington Post The Vegetarian meets Heathers in this darkly funny, seductively strange novel from the acclaimed author of 13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl and Rouge "We were just these innocent girls in the night trying to make something beautiful. We nearly died. We very nearly did, didn't we?" Samantha Heather Mackey couldn't be more of an outsider in her small, highly selective MFA program at New England's Warren University. A scholarship student who prefers the company of her dark imagination to that of most people, she is utterly repelled by the rest of her fiction writing cohort--a clique of unbearably twee rich girls who call each other "Bunny," and seem to move and speak as one. But everything changes when Samantha receives an invitation to the Bunnies' fabled "Smut Salon," and finds herself inexplicably drawn to their front door--ditching her only friend, Ava, in the process. As Samantha plunges deeper and deeper into the Bunnies' sinister yet saccharine world, beginning to take part in the ritualistic off-campus "Workshop" where they conjure their monstrous creations, the edges of reality begin to blur. Soon, her friendships with Ava and the Bunnies will be brought into deadly collision. The spellbinding new novel from one of our most fearless chroniclers of the female experience, Bunny is a down-the-rabbit-hole tale of loneliness and belonging, friendship and desire, and the fantastic and terrible power of the imagination. Named a Best Book of 2019 by TIME, Vogue, Electric Literature, and The New York Public Library
