Afflictions & Departures
By Madeline SonikAfflictions & Departures is a collection of first-person experiential essays.

Everything Rustles
By Jane SilcottIn this debut collection of personal essays, Silcott looks at the tangle of midlife, the long look back, the shorter look forward, and the moments right now that shimmer and rustle around her. Here is love, grief, uncertainty, longing, joy, desire, fury, and fear. Also wandering bears, marauding llamas, light and laundry rooms.

Written with her signature brio and acerbic wit, Nelly Arcan’s last novel is a hymn to life.
