  Can educators continue to teach troubling but worthwhile texts?Our current "culture wars" have reshaped the politics of secondary literature instruction. Due to a variety of challenges from both the left and the right—to language or subject matter, to potentially triggering content, or to authors who have been canceled—school reading lists are rapidly shrinking. For many teachers, choosing which books to include in their curriculum has become an agonizing task with political, professional, and ethical dimensions.In Literature and the New Culture Wars, Deborah Appleman calls for a reacknowledgment of the intellectual and affective work that literature can do, and offers ways to continue to teach troubling texts without doing harm. Rather than banishing challenged texts from our classrooms, she writes, we should be confronting and teaching the controversies they invoke. Her book is a timely and eloquent argument for a reasoned approach to determining what literature still deserves to be read and taught and discussed.

  In their early teens, two girls were forced to sit next to each other in school. Although they were complete opposites−one a social butterfly and the other a withdrawn bookworm−they soon realized that they shared similar hopes and dreams. Over time, against all expectations, they became best friends. 
  Until the war broke out. 
  Now, each was thrown into opposite sides of the conflict. And mistakes were made−unforgivable mistakes, that would shape both their futures. 
  How could their friendship endure? 
  BASED ON A REMARKABLE TRUE STORY, with an appendix including authentic WWII photographs and documents. 
  “Wonderful... A wry, sharply observed tale of both heroism and coming-of-age-story during one of the darkest times in humanity.” 
  “Compulsively readable... In this 200-page novella Kis-Lev proves to be yet again a distinctively contemporary literary voice.” 
  “Biting, brilliant exploration of a female friendship. And though The Two Marias focuses on young women, readers need be neither young nor female in order to enjoy it...”

  “True originality consists not in a new manner, but in a new vision.” 
   
  Grab a pen and hone your writing skills under the guidance one of the greatest teachers of the craft. 
   
  Edith Wharton made her claim in the literary world as the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize in Literature. She is famous for her works of fiction, which include The Age of Innocence, The House of Mirth, and Ethan Frome. Breaking from this tradition, The Writing of Fiction sets itself apart as a distinctive work of nonfiction, in which Wharton pulls back the curtain to reveal the theories behind a great story. 
   
  The Writing of Fiction delves into the timeless questions of all aspiring writers: 
   
  1. How do I find inspiration? 
  2. How do I turn thoughts and ideas into words? 
  3. How do I make my characters seem real? 
  4. How do I write something original when so much has already been written? 
  5. How do I tell a compelling story? 
  Wharton offers advice specific to writing short stories and writing novels. She pulls insights from other great writers along the way and concludes with an in-depth analysis of French novelist Marcel Proust. 
   
  The Writing of Fiction is a chance to mingle with renowned writers and find your own voice. Consider it Wharton’s personal invitation to discover your own potential and jump-start your creative process.
