  The seediest bar in town has a secret—an underground passage to the “muscle dungeon”. 
  The Weeping Pines Motel sits beside the road like a decaying roadkill carcass. This is my home now. This is where my masters make me stay. 
  How did I end up here? Stripped nude and wearing fluffy cat ears, I spend my evenings serving drinks. The men say I’m their catboy. They say I’ve joined their biker gang. 
  Each night, they feed me their seed and make me touch their muscles. It’s doing something to my brain…memories of my past are fading away. 
  The biker gang is in control now…

  We Are All Armenian - Voices...

  A collection of essays about Armenian identity and belonging in the diaspora. 
   
   
   
  In the century since the Armenian Genocide, Armenian survivors and their descendants have written of a vast range of experiences using storytelling and activism, two important aspects of Armenian culture. Wrestling with questions of home and self, diasporan Armenian writers bear the burden of repeatedly telling their history, as it remains widely erased and obfuscated. Telling this history requires a tangled balance of contextualizing the past and reporting on the present, of respecting a culture even while feeling lost within it. 
   
   
   
  We Are All Armenian brings together established and emerging Armenian authors to reflect on the complications of Armenian ethnic identity today. These personal essays elevate diasporic voices that have been historically silenced inside and outside of their communities, including queer, multiracial, and multiethnic writers. The eighteen contributors to this contemporary anthology explore issues of displacement, assimilation, inheritance, and broader definitions of home. Through engaging creative nonfiction, many of them question what it is to be Armenian enough inside an often unacknowledged community.

  Since independence, Algeria has been ruled by Generals who have kept the country in a state of civil war and misery. But how does this power function and endure? Arrested and tortured in Algeria for setting up a free student union in the 1980s, accused of Islamism and frequently harassed ever since, Lyes Laribi has come into close contact with Military Security, Algeria’s political police force.
  The author traces the history of the internal quarrels between General Zeroual's clan and General Nezzar's—coups d'état, economic schemes, political crimes spanning from 1962 to 1999. Now, Lyes Laribi reveals that behind the government of the current president, Abdelaziz Bouteflika, lies a third clan of Generals, an extension of these corrupt cliques.
  This courageous investigation by the author of Dans les geôles de Nezzar is an original and passionate critique of Algeria's recent history. An invitation to give back to the Algerian people the trust and voice confiscated from them.
