Paperback. Condición: Good. In Sharon Wang?s thrilling and corporeal geometry, touch dominates, if often in its ?aftermarks?: singes, whiffs, folds of fabric, echoing gestures between bodies. With generous language and quicksilver intelligence, Wang expresses ?a hunger so large it stops the mouth.? Her poems describe what is ?hard and brilliant,? the spaces between objects, and what?s left in the wake of losses. ?Despite its attunement both to elegy and to witness, the mode is praise: ?He loved the world. He loved it suddenly / and without reason.? . . . As the poet works to understand, ?If in fact it wasn?t possible to build / the world anew,? she does build??extravagantly, judiciously, lovingly. The result is a book of radiant integrity.? ? from the judges? citation for the Kundiman Poetry Prize. …

Paperback. Condición: Good. A Globe and MailBest Book A debut collection from a startling new voice in Canadian poetry. The poems inAdmission Requirements attempt to discover what is required of us when we cut across our material and psychic geographies. Simultaneously full and empty of its origins, the self is continually taxed of any certainties and ways of being. The speaker in these poems is engaged in a kind of fieldwork, surveying gardens, communities, and the haphazard cityscape, where the reader is presented with the paradoxes of subsumed histories. With understated irony and unsettling imagery, the poems address the internal conflicts inherent in contemporary living. …

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Family is number one for most people. Unfortunately, things we make central (consciously or unconsciously)-often get in the way of what matters most. Why center on growth? It prevents unhealthy centers from developing, i.e. child-centered, fear-centered, performance-centered, activity-centered, work-centered, education-centered, etc. Family life is incredibly dynamic and it takes a lot of wisdom and strength to successfully navigate marriage, parenting, life after kids, and grand-parenting. Being growth-centered doesn't leave this highest priority up to chance. What is it? It's a family that prioritizes the personal development of every member, not only of the children but primarily the parents. This center fosters healthy leadership. How do we cultivate this kind of organizing principle? Improve clarity and management of emotions and default beliefs and values. Then create a new way of doing life and family to achieve more of what helps every member thrive. Wang, Eugene (ilustrador). …

Paperback. Condición: Fair. When Wang Ping was nine years old, she secretly set about binding her feet with elastic bands. Footbinding had by then been outlawed in China, women's feet liberated, but at that young age she desperately wanted the tiny feet her grandmother had-deformed and malodorous as they were.

In setting out to demystify this reviled tradition, Wang probes an astonishing range of literary references, addresses the relationship between beauty and pain, and discusses the intense female bonds that footbinding fostered. Her comprehensive examination of the notions of hierarchy, femininity, and fetish bound up in the tradition places footbinding in its proper context in Chinese history and opens a window onto an intriguing culture.…

Hardback. Condición: Good. "The little girl I was would have been thrilled to encounter Meilan. having found a character who embraces the complexity of being both Chinese and American, I would have been able to echo her words: 'I am not alone.'"  --New York Times Book Review by Jean Kwok   A family feud before the start of seventh grade propels Meilan from Boston's Chinatown to rural Ohio, where she must tap into her inner strength and sense of justice to make a new place for herself in this resonant debut. Meilan Hua's world is made up of a few key ingredients: her family's beloved matriarch, Nai Nai; the bakery her parents, aunts, and uncles own and run in Boston's Chinatown; and her favorite Chinese fairy tales. After Nai Nai passes, the family has a falling-out that sends Meilan, her parents, and her grieving grandfather on the road in search of a new home. They take a winding path across the country before landing in Redbud, Ohio. Everything in Redbud is the opposite of Chinatown, and Meilan's not quite sure who she is--being renamed at school only makes it worse. She decides she is many Meilans, each inspired by a different Chinese character with the same pronunciation as her name. Sometimes she is Mist, cooling and invisible; other times, she's Basket, carrying her parents' hopes and dreams and her guilt of not living up to them; and occasionally she is bright Blue, the way she feels around her new friend Logan. Meilan keeps her facets separate until an injustice at school shows her the power of bringing her many selves together. The Many Meanings of Meilan, written in stunning prose by Newbery Honor-winning author Andrea Wang, is an exploration of all the things it's possible to grieve, the injustices large and small that make us rage, and the peace that's unlocked when we learn to find home within ourselves. …

And it's also frequently hilarious." --Los Angeles Times "A funny, perceptive look at what it means to defy societal expectations.timeless." --Washington Post "[For] basically anyone who is breathing, Rental House is a must-read." --San Francisco Chronicle From the award-winning author of Chemistry, a sharp-witted, insightful novel about a marriage as seen through the lens of two family vacations Keru and Nate are college sweethearts who marry despite their family differences: Keru's strict, Chinese, immigrant parents demand perfection ("To use a dishwasher is to admit defeat," says her father), while Nate's rural, white, working-class family distrusts his intellectual ambitions and his "foreign" wife. Some years into their marriage, the couple invites their families on vacation. At a Cape Cod beach house, and later at a luxury Catskills bungalow, Keru, Nate, and their giant sheepdog navigate visits from in-laws and unexpected guests, all while wondering if they have what it takes to answer the big questions: How do you cope when your spouse and your family of origin clash? How many people (and dogs) make a family? And when the pack starts to disintegrate, what can you do to shepherd everyone back together? With her "wry, wise, and simply spectacular" style (People) and "hilarious deadpan that recalls Gish Jen and Nora Ephron" (O, The Oprah Magazine), Weike Wang offers a portrait of family that is equally witty, incisive, and tender.…
