Now, she has an enchanted iPod, a miniature unicorn living in her underwear drawer, and a magical marketplace to manage.

Book Description
Over the past several years scholars, activists, and analysts have begun to examine the growing divide between the wealthy and the rest of us, suggesting that the divide can be traced to the neoliberal turn. "I'm not a business man; I'm a business, man." Perhaps no better statement gets at the heart of this turn. Increasingly we're being forced to think of ourselves in entrepreneurial terms, forced to take more and more responsibility for developing our "human capital." Furthermore a range of institutions from churches to schools to entire cities have been remade, restructured to in order to perform like businesses. Finally, even political concepts like freedom, and democracy have been significantly altered. As a result we face higher levels of inequality than any other time over the last century. In Knocking the Hustle: Against the Neoliberal Turn in Black Politics, Lester K. Spence writes the first book length effort to chart the effects of this transformation on African American communities, in an attempt to revitalize the black political imagination. Rather than asking black men and women to "hustle harder" Spence criticizes the act of hustling itself as a tactic used to demobilize and disempower the communities most in need of empowerment.

What if all you knew about fairy tales was wrong?Ever wondered why Snow White's mother wanted her to have lips red as blood? Why the Evil Queen really wanted to have her heart? Whose voice it was in the queen's mirror? Did you ever wonder if the original Brothers Grimm fairy tales were different, or if the story was real and happened in a certain period in history?From Bestselling author Cameron Jace (The Grimm Diaries Prequels amazon.com/dp/B00AA4JIWC) comes the first book of a dazzling new fantasy series that questions everything you knew about fairy tales.

Loki Blackstar is learning how to become a Dreamhunter, a special talent to kill dark creatures by entering their dreams. He has no no memory of his past; his best friend is a car that talks and sings to him, his mother is a ghost who tries her best to be scary, and his guardian is a happy pipe-smoking teacher called Charmwill Glimmer--who claims to be friends with Santa Claus.Loki is told he is a half-angel who was banned for falling in love with a human girl by roaming the world of Minikins where ordinary people live. The only way to regain back his memory is to kill a 15 year old vampire girl that lives in a mysterious castle called the Schloss in a crazy island that resides on the back of a whale called Sorrow.They say the vampire girl is Snow White. The real Snow White...She is described as darkly beautiful, terrifyingly enchanting, and wickedly lovely. She kills ruthlessly, and doesn't spare anyone. Loki will have to confront her to learn who he really is and the truth about the real fairy tales that the Brothers Grimm kept from us.In their first confrontation, Snow White whispers TWO WORDS in Loki ears while gripping him by the throat that will change both their lives forever.Warning: these Grimm Diaries are like poisoned apples. Once you taste them, you will never see fairy tales in the same light again.Snow White Sorrow - 125'000 words

WINNER OF THE 2022 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE An extraordinary evocation of a grown daughter’s attachment to her mother, and of both women’s strength and resiliency. I Remain in Darkness recounts Annie’s attempts first to help her mother recover from Alzheimer’s disease, and then, when that proves futile, to bear witness to the older woman’s gradual decline and her own experience as a daughter losing a beloved parent. I Remain in Darkness is a new high water mark for Ernaux, surging with raw emotional power and her sublime ability to use language to apprehend her own life’s particular music.
