Seeds of A Sunflower: Poems of...

ANDREA "DREA" CONN

Every sunflower seed can grow into a new flower. 
Like love overcoming trauma, self-worth emerging from self-doubt, or a new purpose stumbled upon after an identity crisis; each sunflower seed will bloom and grow. 
It will eventually be reborn with enough care and nurturing if you bury it deep enough. 
Seeds of a Sunflower is a thought-provoking, raw collection of autobiographical poems that will break your heart and piece it back together, petal by petal, leaf by leaf, existing parasites and thorns included. 
By exposing this vulnerable, private side of her, Andrea Conn tackles the shame and stigma society associates with trauma, loss, paralyzing fear, and imperfection. Her struggles with PTSD, infertility, and personal identity—a daily relatable battle that countless people face—illuminate the slow, painful path to inner strength and self-love. 
The sunflower will stand tall again. The phoenix will rise from its ashes. The wounds will fade into scars. 
You won’t forget how long it took you to heal, how much recovery resembled heartbreak, and how it hurt to grow again. 
Because you are worth more than you can imagine!

The World Is Always Coming to an...

Carlo Rotella

An urban neighborhood remakes itself every day—and unmakes itself, too. Houses and stores and streets define it in one way. But it’s also people—the people who make it their home, some eagerly, others grudgingly. A neighborhood can thrive or it can decline, and neighbors move in and move out. Sometimes they stay but withdraw behind fences and burglar alarms. If a neighborhood becomes no longer a place of sociability and street life, but of privacy indoors and fearful distrust outdoors, is it still a neighborhood?
In the late 1960s and 1970s Carlo Rotella grew up in Chicago’s South Shore neighborhood—a place of neat bungalow blocks and desolate commercial strips, and sharp, sometimes painful social contrasts. In the decades since, the hollowing out of the middle class has left residents confronting—or avoiding—each other across an expanding gap that makes it ever harder for them to recognize each other as neighbors. Rotella tells the stories that reveal how that happened—stories of deindustrialization and street life; stories of gorgeous apartments with vistas onto Lake Michigan and of Section 8 housing vouchers held by the poor.

Blending journalism, memoir, and archival research, The World Is Always Coming to an End uses the story of one American neighborhood to challenge our assumptions about what neighborhoods are, and to think anew about what they might be if we can bridge gaps and commit anew to the people who share them with us. Tomorrow is another ending.
