    Paperback. Condición: Good. To survive the long shadow of the Third Reich, many children were placed in hiding, forced to keep their true identities--names, religion, places of birth, even gender--secret. Among these hidden children was Evelyne Juliette, born in Paris to privileged Hungarian immigrants of high intellect and great passion. Scarcely a year following her birth, France would fall to the Nazis, plunging Europe further into chaos and placing Evi's family among hundreds of thousands on the run. Her father, forced to go underground, never again emerged. Her mother, the indomitable Magda, managed to send her young daughter to temporary safety before being imprisoned in a forced labor camp. Evi, just barely three, was eventually brought by an aunt to Budapest under her cousin's passport. Claude Pollak would be only the first of many false identities assumed to protect the shattered remnants of this young child's life. Brimming with novelistic detail, vivid characterizations, and a sharply observed emotional terrain, Magda's Daughter depicts, in the words of the author herself, the life of a perpetual refugee, forced by historical circumstance to live in rootless exile, while yearning for something she never really knew--life before. Evi Blaikie, a gifted storyteller, writes against the limits of language and defies traditional definitions of survivorship, while reminding us that no war is ever over until the last survivor is gone.…

    Paperback. Condición: Fair. Finalist for the 2025 PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize for Debut Short Story Collection A shimmering debut story collection intimately exploring race, identity, and the pursuit of the American Dream. The vibrant stories in I'll Give You a Reason explore race, identity, connection, and belonging in the Ironbound, an immigrant neighborhood in Newark, New Jersey. A young widow goes on her first date since her husband's death and finds herself hunting a bear in the woods with a near stranger. An unhappy wife compares her mother's love spells and rituals to her own efforts to repair her strained marriage. A self-conscious college student discovers a porn star who shares her name and becomes obsessed with her doppelgänger's freedom and comfort with her own body. Annell López's indelible characters tread the waters of political unrest, sexuality, religion, body image, Blackness, colorism, and gentrification--searching for their identities and a sliver of joy and intimacy. Through each story, a nuanced portrait of the "American Dream" emerges, uplifting the voices of those on its margins. …

    Paperback. Condición: Good. A linked sequential lyric balancing aphoristic ingenuity, deadpan irreverence, and the deep interior exploration of the soul. --sam saxIn this chronicle of mourning and survival, Ali Liebegott wallows in loneliness and over-assigns meaning to everyday circumstance, clinging to an aging dog and obsessing over dead birds. But these unpretentious vignettes are laced with compassion, as she learns to balance the sting of death with the tender strangeness of life.Ali Liebegott is the author of three books, and the recipient of two Lambda Literary Awards and a Ferro-Grumley Award. She currently lives in Los Angeles and writes for Transparent. …

    Paperback. Condición: Good. Praised by the Chicago Sun-Times for its furious, indignant power, this story offers a rare, funny, bitter, and feminist look at war. First published in London in 1930, Not So Quiet. (on the Western Front) describes a group of British women ambulance drivers on the French front lines during World War I, surviving shell fire, cold, and their punishing commandant, Mrs. Bitch. The novel takes the guise of an autobiography by Smith, pseudonym for Evadne Price. The novel's power comes from Smith's outrage at the senselessness of war, at her country's complacent patriotism, and her own daily contact with the suffering and the wounded.…

    Paperback. Condición: Very Good. A Commonwealth Prize-winning novel of "intense power&nbsp.&nbsp.  examining the role of women in modern African society" by the acclaimed Ghanaian author (Publishers Weekly).   Living in Ghana's capital city of Accra with a postgraduate degree and a career in data analysis, Esi Sekyi is a thoroughly modern African woman. Perhaps that is why she decides to divorce her husband after enduring yet another morning's marital rape. Though her friends and family are baffled by her decision (after all, he doesn't beat her!), Esi holds fast. When she falls in love with a married man--wealthy, and able to arrange a polygamous marriage--the modern woman finds herself trapped in a new set of problems.   Witty and compelling, Aidoo's novel, according to Manthia Diawara, "inaugurates a new realist style in African literature." In an afterword to this edition, Tuzyline Jita Allan "places Aidoo's work in a historical context and helps introduce this remarkable writer [who] sheds light on women's problems around the globe" (Publishers Weekly).…
