The author, a white girl from Virginia, faced polarized national alliances, nuclear threat, and destabilized social hierarchies.

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
Jeff VanderMeer's "Authority," the second book in the Southern Reach Trilogy, follows Control as he takes over the leadership of the Southern Reach agency, which is dedicated to understanding and containing the mysterious Area X. The story focuses on Control's attempts to navigate the complex dynamics of the agency, while dealing with unreliable data and the strange behaviors of its staff. He struggles to decipher the truth behind the expeditions into Area X, particularly the events surrounding the missing director and the twelfth expedition's returnees. The book explores themes of identity, manipulation, and the limits of human perception in the face of the unknown, with elements of science fiction, mystery, and psychological thriller. As Control investigates, he finds himself questioning his own reality, the nature of Area X, and the very purpose of the agency.

    “Using old koans as a jumping off point, Magid brings a wonderfully unorthodox (and helpful) perspective to traditional Zen teachings. As both Zen teacher and psychoanalyst, Magid unmasks the psychological naivete that is still all too prevalent in contemporary Zen practice, and shows how it can lead to problems for students, and tangled relationships between teachers and students. In each insightful essay, Magid makes a journey from a short koan into far territories of the heart.”—Susan Moon, author of This Is Getting Old 
In this inspiring and incisive offering, Barry Magid uses the language of modern psychology and psychotherapy to illuminate one of Buddhism's most powerful and often mysterious technologies: the Zen koan. What's more, Magid also uses the koans to expand upon the insights of psychology (especially self psychology and relational psychotherapy) and open for the reader new perspectives on the functioning of the human mind and heart. Nothing Is Hidden explores many rich themes, including facing impermanence and the inevitability of change, working skillfully with desire and attachment, and discovering when "surrender and submission" can be liberating and when they shade into emotional bypassing. With a sophisticated view of the rituals and teachings of traditional Buddhism, Magid helps us see how we sometimes subvert meditation into just another "curative fantasy" or make compassion into a form of masochism.

    Alex slips off her headphones and savors the sensation of stillness in silence while the crowd dances on at Oslo’s hot new silent disco. She is conducting her dream field research on sound and attention when a handsome stranger beckons to her from across the dance floor. Hoping for a little warmth in Norway’s cold climate, she follows him -- going from anthropology PhD student to murder suspect. With the Norwegian police and a killer closing in, Alex is stranded in a country where every puzzle piece is slightly out of place. While dyslexia makes reading Norwegian difficult, it also gifts her an uncanny ability to read people. Soon she is channeling Ms. Marple as much as Margaret Meade, as she re-places puzzle pieces and navigates the sharp edges of the frosty Fjord in an attempt to free herself and return home.
