  There is something about the number 3.    
   
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
   
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
   
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating. 
   
  From their pens to your your ears.

  Ninth Building

  Ninth Building is a fascinating collection of vignettes drawn from Zou Jingzhi's experience growing up during the Cultural Revolution, first as a boy in Beijing and then as a teenager exiled to the countryside. Zou poetically captures a side of the Cultural Revolution that is less talked about—the sheer tedium and waste of young life, as well as the gallows humor that accompanies such desperate situations. Jeremy Tiang's enthralling translation of this important work of fiction was awarded a PEN/Heim Grant.

  Ordinary Angels

  THE AMAZING TRUE STORY—NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE 
   
   
   
  A true story full of drama, love, insurmountable odds, and miraculous triumph experienced by ordinary people who rose up to answer the call to help an innocent child, about one woman in particular who looked beyond her own limitations to say yes to the impossible. 
   
   
   
  Sharon Stevens, twice divorced, barely making enough to support herself, would never claim to be an angel. Early in life, perilous situations were thrust upon her. As an adult, she gravitated toward adventure and spur-of-the-moment decisions that often put her on the precipice of disaster and kept her in the pathway of people who would take advantage of her. If your aim is to find fault with her, she would be an easy target, but look again. 
   
   
   
  This diminutive hair stylist was not the person you would have chosen for such a monumental task with a life hanging in the balance—but God chose her, nonetheless. And where you or I would probably have done the very least we could do, Sharon said "yes" to the impossible. She might never have stepped up and risked everything she had to help a complete stranger, but for the events that unfolded that unusually cool Kentucky August morning.

  Nature

  Ralph Waldo Emerson

  Emerson's Nature is not just an essay—it's a rebellion against confinement, an argument against secondhand wisdom. He strips away artifice, forcing us to confront the raw, untamed presence of the world. To walk through the woods, he suggests, is to be undressed of civilization, to shed the weight of customs, history, and ego. Nature demands no commentary, no theory—it simply is.
  This is not the sentimental nature of poets, nor the docile landscape of painters. Emerson's nature is unsettling, absolute. It dwarfs human concerns, shames our institutions, and reduces grandeur to irrelevance. It teaches, but never speaks. It heals, but never consoles. It is, above all, free—and it mocks those who try to own or define it.
  He challenges us: why do we live in exile from the elemental? Why do we build palaces only to stare longingly at the horizon? The stars, the trees, the shifting light—they whisper something we've forgotten. To listen is not just to understand nature, but to remember who we were before we forgot to look.

  You Mean It or You Don't - James...

  After a speech at UMass Amherst on February 28, 1984, James Baldwin was asked by a student: "You said that the liberal façade and being a liberal is not enough. Well, what is? What is necessary?" Baldwin responded, "Commitment. That is what is necessary. You mean it or you don't." 
   
   
   
  Taking up that challenge and drawing from Baldwin's fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and interviews, You Mean It or You Don't will spur today's progressives from conviction to action. It is not enough, authors Hollowell and McGhee urge us, to hold progressive views on racial justice, LGBTQ+ identity, and economic inequality. True and lasting change demands a response to Baldwin's radical challenge for moral commitment. Called to move from dreams of justice to living it out in communities, churches, and neighborhoods, we can show that we truly mean it. 
   
   
   
  Welcome to life with James Baldwin. It is raw and challenging, inspired and embodied, passionate, and fully awake.
