Summary

“Maria Montessori, a Relevant Story is the best biography of Maria Montessori that I know of, certainly in Italy, but perhaps also in the world, absolutely of the same value as Rita Kramer’s historical one. Grazia Honegger Fresco is a Montessorian in heart and soul, endowed with a deep knowledge of Maria Montessori’s life and work, and her book is not a dull retelling of news already known, nor a hagiography. The author has done extensive research in Italy and abroad, consulting original and private documents of Maria Montessori and her family, and listening to those who knew Maria intimately. The result is this wholly original masterpiece.” Carolina Montessori (great-granddaughter of Maria)

    Bullies grow up – and not all of them change. 
      
    Peter has bulked up since his younger days. A chance meeting with a bully from his past leaves him with no doubt he now has the upper hand. They step outside for one last brawl, but his bully speaks, and Peter is enthralled. He finds himself unable to deny his bully any request, and he learns humiliation all over again. 
      
    Peter is transformed by a single word, molded into his bully's every desire and expected to please him in every way. 
      
    PSA: This story contains a man who does not get his way – and one who does. One is not eager to become a woman and give it all, but the other is fully expecting compliance. And he will get it. There will be mindless submission to men with complete mastery.

    Since her death in 2003, Nina Simone has been the subject of an astonishing number of rereleased, remastered, and remixed albums and compilations as well as biographies, films, viral memes, samples, and soundtracks. In Fantasies of Nina Simone, Jordan Alexander Stein examines the space between our collective and individual fantasies about Simone the performer, civil rights activist, and icon, and her own fantasies about herself. Stein outlines how Simone gave voice to personal fantasies through releasing dozens of covers of her white male contemporaries. With her covers of George Harrison, the Bee Gees, Bob Dylan, and others, Simone explored and claimed the power and perspective that come with race and gender privilege. Looking at examples from Simone's four-decade genre-bending career—from songbook standards, jazz, and pop to folk, junkanoo, and reggae—and at her work's many uptakes and afterlives, Stein mobilizes the psychoanalytic concept of fantasy to build a black feminist history with and for this multifaceted performing artist.

    All American Waste is a collection of poetry that you won't be able to put your finger on. Focusing on the struggles of being a young adult in America, and the seemingly futile search to find what is left of the "American Dream," the poems within the book dance from relatable to powerful, and powerful to bizarre. They put the spotlight on the mundanity of everyday life, the importance of mental health, and the beauty of our fragile environment. There is truly a poem for every person in this book!
