  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  “Dreamland” by Sam Quinones explores the origins and impact of the opioid epidemic in the United States. The book examines how a combination of factors—economic decline, the rise of powerful pharmaceutical companies, and the emergence of heroin trafficking networks—fueled a national crisis. Quinones delves into the stories of individuals, families, and communities affected by addiction, highlighting the devastating consequences on both personal and societal levels. Through personal narratives and detailed analysis, Dreamland sheds light on the interconnected forces driving the epidemic and emphasizes the human toll of widespread addiction and overdose.

  Poor Folk

  Fyodor Dostoevsky

  "We are poor people, we are simple people, but we have hearts and souls too."
  
  Before the psychological labyrinths of Crime and Punishment, a young Dostoevsky captured the world's attention with this exquisite epistolary novel. Through a series of increasingly desperate letters, we witness the relationship between Makar Devushkin, a lowly, aging copy clerk, and Varvara Dobroselova, a fragile young seamstress. Living in squalid rooms across a dismal St. Petersburg courtyard, they exchange words of comfort, shared bread, and the flickering hope of a better life. Poor Folk is a searingly intimate portrait of the "little man" struggling to maintain his humanity in a society that views him as nothing more than a smudge on a ledger.
  
  The Birth of Psychological Realism: Dostoevsky takes the traditional "sentimental" epistolary form and infuses it with a brutal, modern realism. He elevates the clerk—a figure usually mocked in Russian literature—to a tragic hero. Makar's obsession with his social standing and his desperate attempts to appear "respectable" even as he starves reveal the deep psychological scars of class inequality.
  
  A Tragedy of Self-Sacrifice: As their financial situation deteriorates, the letters become a battleground between love and survival. Makar's selfless devotion to Varvara leads him to ruin, while Varvara is forced to make a heart-shattering choice between the man who loves her and the safety of a wealthy, predatory suitor. It is a story that proves the greatest tragedies are often the quietest ones, occurring behind closed doors in the poorest corners of the city.
  
  Witness the soul of a genius in its first bloom. Purchase "Poor Folk" today and experience the novel that changed Russian literature forever.

  Litigating the Pandemic -...

  Susan M. Sterett

  As officials scrambled in 2020 to manage the spread of COVID, the reverberations of the crisis reached well beyond immediate public health concerns. The governance problems that emerged in the pandemic would be problems in other climate-related disasters, too. 
   
   
   
  Many of these governance problems wound up in court. Businesses filed insurance claims for lost commerce; when the claims were denied, some companies sued. As state governments ordered closures and otherwise tried to adapt, interest organizations that had long sought to limit government authority challenged them in court. Political officials railed against litigation they argued would stop businesses from reopening. The United States, like other countries, governs partly through litigation, and litigation is one way of seeing the multiple governance failures during the pandemic. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on databases of cases filed, news reports, and other sources, Susan M. Sterett argues that governing during the pandemic must include the human institutions intertwined with the effects of the virus. Those institutions reveal problems well beyond the reach of technical expertise. Failures in private insurance as a way of governing risk, conflicts about the primacy of religion, government authority, and health, are problems that predated the pandemic and will persist in future disasters.
