  The tragedy of gun violence is depicted in annotated illustrations that illuminate a society gone hamn; from legendary hip-hop artist Chuck D (Public Enemy, Prophets of Rage, etc.)—Selected for the In the Margins Book Awards 2024 Nonfiction Recommendation List"With his latest work of graphic nonfiction, Chuck D uses his art and hip-hop rhymes to show how the US has been held hostage by gun violence and a growing sense of hopelessness . . . A focused, fresh, urgent text filled with pictures worth 1,000 words and rhymes worth thousands more." —Kirkus Reviews, Starred ReviewIN SUMMER OF HAMN, legendary hip-hop artist Chuck D takes on gun violence with rhythmic, inventive writing and passionately raw art. He has long spoken out against gun violence, including how it intersects with rap and hip-hop culture. Summer of Hamn is the bound journal Chuck D carried with him in the summer of 2022—a summer marked by a particularly high rate of gun death.In these pages, victims are memorialized, politicians are skewered, and vehement pleas to eradicate gun violence are made. Jaw-dropping statistics (40% of all personal guns in the world are owned by US citizens; there are 100 million more guns in the US than there are citizens) intersect with poetic reflections ("Another mall shooting seems normalized in Columbus / Raining outside in Ohio / Raining inside folks panic / Inside hearing shots bust"), all written in Chuck's hand over vibrant, utterly original, neoexpressionist ink and watercolor art.This book is the follow-up to STEWdio the debut trilogy on Chuck D's Enemy Books imprint, in which he invented a new medium—the "naphic grovel"—a bound journal brimming with his observations and reflections of current events in both art and prose. Summer of Hamn is the second release on the imprint.

  This early work by Mary Elizabeth Braddon was originally published in 1889 and we are now republishing it with a brand new biography of the author. 'The Day Will Come' is one of Braddon's novels in the sensation literature genre. Mary Elizabeth Braddon was born in Soho, London, England in 1835. She was educated privately in England and France, and at the age of just nineteen was offered a commission by a local printer to produce a serial novel "combining the humour of Dickens with the plot and construction of G. P. R. Reynolds" What emerged was Three Times dead, or The Secret of the Heath, which was published five years later under the title The Trail of the Serpent (1861). For the rest of her life, Braddon was an extremely prolific writer, producing more than eighty novels, while also finding time to write and act in a number of stage plays.

  A Goddess Reborn 
  Erotic Mythology has everything the horny reader could want. In this volume, we’ve got two journeys starring both clever and proud women. Maybe a little too proud. As they travel, they’ll learn many lessons that will humble their spirits and strengthen their resolve. And redden their asses. 
  Pheme has been sent to the Minotaur’s labyrinth as a sacrifice. She thinks herself clever with her plan to escape, but there are beings wiser than she in the maze. Beings smarter and hornier. Around every corner, there could be pleasure, torment, surprise, and even death in the lair of the Minotaur. Watch your step– there are monsters here. 
  Aida is determined to become the next High Priestess of a love goddess. The only way to do so is to descend into the underworld and fight her way through trials loosely based on Egyptian legends of the afterlife. The only way to get out is to ascend, and the only way to ascend is to pass each test and satisfy every demand in every way she knows how. And she knows lots of ways to satisfy. 
  A priestess sworn to a goddess of love and sex is determined to rise to the rank of the high priestess. But before she can ascend, she must descend deep into the underworld to face trials that will take all her skills to pass. 
  Aken, the ferryman, will take great persuasion. Isis and Nephthys promise pleasure but lay a trap. Ammit, the devourer, has no mercy. 
  These tests will take her to the heights of pleasure and the depths of pain. The only way out is to be reborn.
