Book Description
Vaidehi, an 80s bride, takes us through a tyrannical face of patriarchy, that is her life, and how she is able to live, love and find happiness despite her often unbearable circumstances. As she becomes a mother to twins - a boy and a girl - her spirit to ensure fails, as she sees the possibility of history repeating itself with her daughter's life. As her journey of feminism starts, she often fails in the face of society, making her daughter question her, in an ironical turn of events. Maya is a millennial and revels in a sense of freedom that modern marriages commonly offer - until she is faced with a more passive-aggressive face of patriarchy and she's met with a demeaning treatment. As the silence of endurance that she has inherited from her mother and her exposure to feminism clash within her, her mind wanders outside of her marriage. As Maya and Vaidehi's lives intersect, questions and confrontations explode and die out in the generational chasm that create everlasting rifts and regrets, which women live with.

Book Description
In WHAT WE PASS ON: COLLECTED POEMS: 1980-2009, Maria Mazziotti Gillan weaves a tapestry of one woman's life wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, grand-daughter, Italian American. Reading these poems in one volume makes us acutely aware of how memory is layered, each new poem adding another detail, another color, another perspective so that we watch as the poet and the people around her change. With increasing clarity and honesty, Gillan peels away all the self-protective layers and invites us in so we can see in her story a reflection of our own. Her work in all its texture and exuberance, its passion and power, forces us to care about what matters and teaches us to be human. This is a poet who, in these courageous poems, teaches us why poetry matters and why it can change us."

Book Description
Seventeen-year-old Jacob is well aware of the commandment Honor thy father and mother. But his mother has been dead for a year, and in order to protect his sister and himself, Jacob plans to kill his father. In Wharton, Texas, a rural and dilapidated town where cotton once made kings out of paupers, Jacobs mental health is rapidly deteriorating. He has to cope with the death of his mother, the responsibility of raising a younger sibling, and a deranged father who breeds ferocious fighting pit bulls and deals drugs, all from the once-functioning and prosperous family farm. Jacob struggles to preserve his sisters nave worldview while searching for meaning and hope in the dismal circumstances that surround him. When intense supernatural visions begin to cripple Jacobs ability to live productively, desperation consumes him. Killing his father seems to be the only salvation from his rapidly crumbling world. A literary sketch of a failed moral calculus and madness at its inception, So Shall We Pass explores the ways in which an adolescent such as Jacob responds to the often overwhelming energies of life.
