  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  “The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao” by Junot Díaz follows the life of Oscar de León, a Dominican-American young man who dreams of becoming a famous writer and finding love, despite his struggles with identity, family, and his appearance. The novel explores themes of love, obsession, identity, and the weight of history, particularly the curse, or fukú, that haunts Oscar’s family. Blending magical realism with historical commentary, the book reflects on the impact of the Dominican Republic’s violent past, the immigrant experience, and how family trauma shapes personal destinies across generations.

  Dive into the dark yet irresistibly compelling world of "The Story of an Awakening", a psychological thriller about an artist stripped of everything but his unquenchable thirst for truth. 
  Elias Burton was once a dazzling painter whose canvases captivated audiences—until the betrayal of someone close shattered not only his career but his faith in himself. For ten years, he lived in the silence of his own oblivion, hiding from the world and from his own memories. Then mysterious letters—"Dawn," "Shadow," "Labyrinth"…—slipped beneath his door and stirred in him something far stronger than despair. 
  From his dusty studio to the crumbling mansion at 17 Elm Street, Elias follows a trail of symbols and mirror-like reflections that hide clues to a long-buried truth. Each page is a brushstroke on the canvas of his fate: the tension tightens, the past takes shape, and deep within the mirrored glass glimmers the key capable of resurrecting a life laid waste. 
  Perfectly balanced between psychological drama and enigmatic investigation, "The Story of an Awakening" will make you feel every emotion alongside its hero, keeping you on edge until the very end. Open the book—and experience one man's journey back from the shadows to claim his right to the dawn.

  Corridors of Contagion - How the...

  Corridors of Contagion brings to light the experiences of five people incarcerated across the United States as they navigate the onset of the pandemic—and the many months, stretched into years, that followed. Journalist Victoria Law combines this storytelling with a trenchant analysis of the structural failures of the US carceral system: failures that made prisons uniquely vulnerable to COVID-19 outbreaks, from overcrowding to solitary confinement, from insufficient healthcare to life sentences. 
   
   
   
  The book portrays the horrors of continual lockdowns not in the comfort of one's own home, but in prisons where routine violence and chaos is made even more unimaginable by the complete lack of control over protection from a terrifying and lethal new virus. The pandemic provided an opportunity for lawmakers and policy makers to rethink the nation's addiction to perpetual punishment. Instead, US jails and prisons doubled down on punishment under the guise of pandemic protections. As a result, people behind bars experienced increased stress, mental health challenges, increased violence, and higher rates of deaths, many of which could have been prevented. 
   
   
   
  Corridors of Contagion reminds listeners about both the particular horrors experienced by people in cages and the continued role of the US as the world’s prison nation.

  Understanding the Ground Rules for the Global Economy 
   
   
   
  In this revised and updated edition of A Concise Guide to Macroeconomics, David A. Moss draws on his years of teaching at Harvard Business School to explain important macro concepts using clear and engaging language. 
   
   
   
  This guidebook covers the essentials of macroeconomics and examines, in a simple and intuitive way, the core ideas of output, money, and expectations. Early chapters leave you with an understanding of everything from fiscal policy and central banking to business cycles and international trade. Later chapters provide a brief monetary history of the United States as well as the basics of macroeconomic accounting. You'll learn why countries trade, why exchange rates move, and what makes an economy grow. 
   
   
   
  Moss's detailed examples will arm you with a clear picture of how the economy works and how key variables impact business and will equip you to anticipate and respond to major macroeconomic events, such as a sudden depreciation of the real exchange rate or a steep hike in the federal funds rate.
