Named a best book of 2017 by NPR, The Guardian, Slate, NYLON and The Globe and Mail (Canada)
From Durga Chew-Bose, "one of our most gifted, insightful essayists and critics" (Nylon), comes "a warmly considered meld of criticism and memoir" (New Yorker), a lyrical and piercingly insightful debut collection of essays about identity and culture.
Too Much and Not the Mood is a beautiful and surprising exploration of what it means to be a first-generation, creative young woman working today. On April 11, 1931, Virginia Woolf ended her entry in A Writer's Diary with the words "too much and not the mood" to describe her frustration with placating her readers, what she described as the "cramming in and the cutting out." She wondered if she had anything at all that was truly worth saying.
The attitude of that sentiment inspired Durga Chew-Bose to gather own writing in this lyrical collection of poetic essays that examine personhood and artistic growth. Drawing inspiration from a diverse group of incisive and inquiring female authors, Chew-Bose captures the inner restlessness that keeps her always on the brink of creative expression.

Описание:
There is war in the mountains. War fueled by hatred and mistrust. War driven by vengeance and misunderstanding. War between two great peoples, the humans and the dragons. War that can only end with the absolute, utter destruction of one unless, of course, something can turn that disaster aside. Something or someone - the girl with brilliant, emerald-green eyes.

Описание: Who was Wah Lee? To the Keen family living in North Cariboo, B.C., Wah Lee was their forefather from China; amongst local historians, Wah Lee is the name for a general store in Quesnel, B.C. This book unravels the mystery of a name, which is also the story of a person, a business, and a family that traverses 150 years of history and crosses the Pacific from China to Canada. What unfolds is not just the history of one family, but a history of the recent past in Canada and China told through the trials and fortunes, hopes and dreams of individual family members. This is a story that can be treasured by family members, historians, and other Chinese-Canadians alike in years to come....

Описание:
This second poetry collection by Abby Chew explores what it means to live as that animal called "human," and how to reemerge from the isolating burrow of personal and family history. A Bear Approaches from the Sky pulls the reader into a family saga that becomes archetypal in its occupation of loneliness. At the same time, the poems generate connection to our shared life on this planet and our many diverse and struggling families of origin.
A Bear Approaches from the Sky is intended for a general adult readership.
Says Emily Wilson: "With acute, earth-bound diction and wind-stained tones, Abby Chew's poems evoke a sensory world that is not quite human, one that feels remnant of our more richly animal past, when we were 'never without the hunting teeth.' Her composite, self-possessed voices--half man, half coyote; half crow, half bear--lope and swoop their waste spaces, smelling the air, catching the scents of prey and danger. Their collective act is to subtly and miraculously mark, and transform, the distance between us and our broader relations, seeking and recovering 'what it is that holds us all, the stranglehold / of home, of loneliness, of love.'"
Broc Rossell adds, "Forget the past. History is the story of the present, and A Bear Approaches from the Sky is a creation myth of our present, of our presence in the world. Abby Chew, I see your Bear, I see Coyote and Oolie, I see tricksters mingling with Einstein and Mother and winter coat pockets full of tobacco dreams, but this isn't a dream: this is the story that happens today, so full of heart I might not make it through. The landscape is incredible--I'm recognizing things I've never seen before, under a patina of fossilized sunlight. I love this book for the way it roughs me up, almost as much as it loves me back. It gives me courage, and dignity. It's our friend."

Описание: A bilingual read-along book translated from English and retold in Spanish for children ages 4-9, this story tells of a timid piglet who uses his powerful snout to become an outstanding soccer star. When this talent does not save him from being sent to the market, he escapes into the woods. Watching the soccer games from afar, he yearns for his human friends. Years later, at a family gathering at the old farm, he becomes a hero when he saves a small child. Reunited with his old friends, he observes modestly that of course friends help each other, so why are they fussing over him? Written in the style of a Chinese fable, this original story is built on the timeless themes of friendship, faithfulness, and perseverance. The story follows the tradition of Kiplings Just So Stories, accompanied by exquisite color pencil-and-watercolor illustrations.
