Описание: Down the Halls and Into the Street is a snapshot of a time and place we're not supposed to remember if we were really there, but San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury in the so-called "Summer of Love" was an experience not easily forgotten. There really was "something in the air". Love it or hate it, the generation which came of age under the influence of Free Love, psychedelic drugs and acid rock has, in part, created our modern culture. Grandma and Grandpa were once young, good-looking and hip, and this is a glimpse into their story. The sixties - through the eyes of one who was not only there, but actually remembers.

Описание:
One by one, the bodies of the police officers are found, brutally executed with mysteriously coded death cards placed by every corpse. And the only sound louder than the doors of Loon Lake, Michigan being locked against evil is the sound of hearts beating in terror. When Louis Kincaid joins the small force and starts investigating, he doesn't realize that the truth--and the killer--is closer at hand than anyone can know.

Описание:
A great collection of short speculative fiction.
Twenty-three authors selected by co-editors Rhonda Parrish and Greg Bechtel
Nevertheless (Tesseracts Twenty-one) is a collection of optimistic speculative fiction stories, each optimistic in a slightly different way. These stories explore the optimism that drives us to seek out new worlds, that inspires us to sacrifice for others or fuels us to just keep going when everything seems lost and in so doing turn the idea upside down and inside out.
One of the best reasons for doing an anthology of optimistic future this year was because no matter which side of the political or social spectrum you land on, it's been a tough year. Nevertheless we try to remain optimistic. Nevertheless, we don't give up. Nevertheless, yes, we persist. The stories in this anthology of optimistic SF are some of the darkest optimistic stories you'll ever read but, nevertheless, they are optimistic. And powerful.
Featuring stories and poems by: James Bambury, Meghan Bell, Gavin Bradley, Ryan Henson Creighton, Darrel Duckworth, Dorianne Emmerton, Pat Flewwelling, Stephen Geigen-Miller, Jason M.

Описание:
You know the Dugans. They're that scrappy family that lives down the street. Their yard is overgrown, they don't pick up after their dog, their five children run free--leaving chaos in their wake--and the father hasn't earned a cent in years. The wife holds them together on her income alone. You wouldn't want them for neighbors--but from a distance, they're quite entertaining.
You can tell from the empty bottles lying under the bush out front that alcohol is an issue in the household--and all things considered, you can hardly blame the wife for leaving one day.
Without her at the helm, the rest carry on the best they can. Their strong sense of family keeps them going. They help--and in some cases, rescue--each other as they struggle for a better life. And while they never follow the rules, or completely conquer the adversity with which they're faced, they do manage to meet their challenges--and even earn some much-needed respect. Along the way, they might even make you proud.
Set in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York, the twelve linked stories of Our Love Could Light the World depict a dysfunctional family that's messy and rude, cruel and kind, and loyal to the end.

Описание:
A richly nuanced cultural history of the Great Mississippi flood
The Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 was the most destructive river flood in U.S. history, drowning crops and displacing more than half a million people across seven states. It was also the first environmental disaster to be experienced virtually on a mass scale. The Flood Year 1927 draws from newspapers, radio broadcasts, political cartoons, vaudeville, blues songs, poetry, and fiction to show how this event provoked an intense and lasting cultural response. Americans at first seemed united in what Herbert Hoover called a "great relief machine," but deep rifts soon arose. Southerners, pointing to faulty federal levee design, decried the attack of Yankee water. The condition of African American evacuees prompted comparisons to slavery from pundits like W.E.B. Du Bois and Ida B. Wells. And environmentalists like Gifford Pinchot called the flood "the most colossal blunder in civilized history." Susan Scott Parrish examines how these and other key figures--from entertainers Will Rogers, Miller & Lyles, and Bessie Smith to authors Sterling Brown, William Faulkner, and Richard Wright--shaped public awareness and collective memory of the event. The crises of this period that usually dominate historical accounts are war and financial collapse, but The Flood Year 1927 allows us to assess how mediated environmental disasters became central to modern consciousness.
