Paperback. Condición: Good. After giving of yourself as a wife, mother, daughter and friend, there comes a time when it is necessary for us as women to do our own thing, and tennis has become that thing. Sometimes that thing can be tumultuous and self-defining; it makes us crazy, we know it, but we wouldn't have it any other way. This socially acceptable addiction of tennis keeps us coming back for more, match after match, day after day, cat fight after cat fight, all because of the passion we have for the game. That passion, combined with some very interesting types of tennis players, along with the typical on court drama, all adds up to quite a cocktail. And speaking of cocktails-let's face it, after a match they're well deserved, heavily anticipated and for some of us, the real reason we play. The bottom line is that the league is really a home-a home where you can look like a B.A.R.B.I.E, act like an Alexis, or whine like a Blah, Blah, Blah. You're identified, exposed and, after all of that, still accepted just as you are. So, tennis ladies, enjoy every moment, relish every point, cherish every friendship, and don't you dare let your sorry ass go down without swinging.…

Hardback. Condición: Very Good. Representing a first in gay and Christian publishing, this provocative book presents a complete reversal of thought and action, contending that God loves homosexuals without attempting to refute scripture references. The study confronts its subject with a quirky sense of humor in the spirit of the bedtime story, providing a rare evangelical Christian volume addressed directly to the gay community. Unorthodox in its presentation, this guide speaks the language of those who may feel abandoned, condemned, and damned while avoiding reinterpretations of scriptural passages, making the gospel accessible to a younger, free-spirited generation. Spearheading a volatile topic with candor and grace, this consideration reframes the never-ending question, Is homosexuality a sin? and instead asks the gay community for a cease-fire--to forgive, love, and help put a stop to a cultural war being waged in the world.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. An "absorbing, breezy, and-ultimately-hopeful" (Ken Jennings) guide to world conflicts, from the large and important to the completely absurd. "A handy history of violence that is at once surprising, fascinating, enlightening, and surprisingly not totally depressing."-John Hodgeman, author of The Areas of My Expertise and former correspondent for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart The daily news gives you events but rarely context. So what do al-Qaeda, North Korea, and Iran really want? Which faction is which in Iraq and who's arming whom? What's the deal with Somalia, Darfur, and Kashmir? Israel and Palestine, Hamas and Hezbollah? Who Hates Whom, a seriously amusing look at global humanity-and the lack thereof-presents global chaos made simple. Topics include: . Which countries are fighting over an uninhabitable glacier with no real strategic value-at an annual cost of half a billion dollars? . Which underreported war has been the deadliest since World War II-worse even than Vietnam-with a continuing aftermath worse than most current conflicts combined? . Which royal family members were respected as gods-until the crown prince machine-gunned the king and queen? . Which country's high school students think the Nazis had a "good side"? Which nation's readers recently put Mein Kampf on the bestseller list? And which other country watches itself with four million security cameras? (Hint: All three are U.S. allies.) Detailed with over fifty original maps, photographs, and illustrations, Who Hates Whom summarizes more than thirty global hotspots with concise essays, eye-catching diagrams, and (where possible) glimmers of kindness and hope.…

Hardback. Condición: Very Good. From The Book Thief and The Binger to The Scholar and The Sci-Fi Lover--read all about over 20 different types of bookworm. Ever find yourself mainlining coffee at work in an effort to stay awake after a late night with a page-turner you just couldn't put down? Does the thought of being stuck on a train/plane/bus without a book fill you with more existential angst than a Camus novel? Were you too traumatized to leave your bed for days after finishing The Time Traveler's Wife? If any of these scenarios sound familiar, then chances are you're a book lover, but what kind of bibliophile are you? Perhaps you're The Cryer, who doesn't enjoy a story until at least a pint of real tears have been shed. Or maybe you're The Adulterer, who struggles to commit and never has less than four books on the go, or The Abuser, whose treat 'em mean attitude leads to turned-down corners, broken spines, and water-damaged pages. With over 20 hilarious bookworm profiles, you're sure to spot a good few character traits that any member of the literati will recognize. While we won't claim it's as funny as a Philip Roth novel, So You Think You're a Bookworm? will definitely raise a smile or two.…

Hardback. Condición: Good. Cynthia Ozick is one of the sharpest and most distinguished critics in American letters. For decades, her extraordinary readerly sensitivity and deep well of knowledge have informed penetrating judgments that delight and spark debate. Assembling ten years worth of Ozick s nonfiction writing in one volume, Critics, Monsters, Fanatics, and Other Literary Essays is both an exemplar of brilliant criticism and a powerful argument for the vitally important role of the critic, as much now as ever. With the gauntlet-throwing essay that opens this book, Ozick contends that if literary fiction is to thrive in a culture awash in uncertainty and disruption, we need true critics to make sense of the present, illuminate the past, and point the way forward. The essays that follow reveal Ozick in peak form as she examines writers from the early twentieth century to today. Saul Bellow is here, and Bernard Malamud; Auden and Kafka; William Gass, Martin Amis, and more all gathered in provocatively named groups with new introductions: Figures, Fanatics, Monsters, Souls. Uncompromising and brimming with insight, these essays are marvels of elegant prose and discerning intellect from one of our most treasured writers.…
