A dark, no-holds-barred, and often hilarious collection from a prize-winning poet, veering between the poles of self and world. Kim Addonizio’s sharp and irreverent eighth volume, Now We’re Getting Somewhere, is an essential companion to your practice of the Finnish art of kalsarikännit—drinking at home, alone in your underwear, with no intention of going out. Imbued with the poet’s characteristic precision and passion, the collection charts a hazardous course through heartache, climate change, dental work, Outlander, semiotics, and more. Combatting existential gloom with a wicked, seductive energy, Addonizio investigates desire, loss, and the madness of contemporary life. She calls out to Walt Whitman and John Keats, echoes Dorothy Parker, and finds sisterhood with Virginia Woolf. Sometimes confessional, sometimes philosophical, these poems weave from desolation to drollery and clamor with raucous imagery: an insect in high heels, a wolf at an uncomfortable party, a glowing and self-serious guitar. A poet whose “voice lifts from the page, alive and biting” (Sky Sanchez, San Francisco Book Review), Addonizio reminds her reader, "if you think nothing & / no one can / listen I love you joy is coming."

His compassionate witness is born out of immersion in doggedly bittersweet particulars: the cock-eyed wisdom of 1950s science fiction movies; Do Not Disturb signs; vegetarian physics; the perils of bed-and-breakfast lodging; flying saucer disciples; what to do in case of Rapture; Debbie Fuller, reluctant childhood angel; the theory and practice of Spontaneous Human Combustion. His passionate transformation of that raw data into song - no matter how fragile or raucous - provides irrefutable testimony about the consequences of being nothing less than human, where "every day someone crawls out of his ocean of sleep / and takes those first tottering steps on the planet again / he's playing with real fire." And with Clewell's insistence on the unlikely grace in that condition, along with the generosity of his unabashed inclusiveness, his poetry is a powerful antidote to the bad medicine we're too often asked to swallow.

This book is a funny sometimes biting look into the world of a successful albeit plus sized black woman and her struggle to come to terms with her feelings about her own body. It's about the love of her fiancee who finds her to be the sexiest and most exciting woman he knows. They love each other and he asks her to marry him. She says yes and begins to try to plan a wedding in the midst of her therapy practice, her twin teenage sons and her life in general. She doesn't expect a wedding in a month to be easy but she doesn't anticipate the attitudes that still exist about plus sized women. This story takes you into that experience using humor to make the point you don't have to be thin to be loved and get married.

Four girls: dealer, junkie, recluse, thief Sarah, Jenna, Lauren, and Cassie may look like ordinary girls, but they're not. They're delinquents whose lives collide when they're sent to an experimental juvenile detention program on a farm in the middle of nowhere. As the girls face up to the crimes they committed, three of them will heal the wounds of their pasts and discover strengths they never dreamed they had. And one, driven by a deep secret of her own, will seek to destroy everything they've all worked so hard for. An Excerpt from Getting Somewhere: She thinks of herself as the surviving type. Able to make things work out the way she wants them to. Okay, so, yeah. This is a little glitch in her plans. But she's not going to stay. Absolutely no way. She'll just tell them she's not happy, that it isn't working out for her. The room where they put her is ridiculous. Tiny. No television, no phone. Geez, they even had those at detention. Well, not in the rooms, but still. Hell, if she has to, she'll just walk out. Nothing to stop her. It will be fine. It always is.

**Don't miss John Sandford's brand-new thriller Ocean Prey – out now** A Lucas Davenport thriller by internationally bestselling novelist John Sandford Having spent the past two years in hiding following a daring and successful heist, a big-time robber is back in Minneapolis chasing the opportunity for an even greater steal. The big Republican party convention is in a couple of weeks: thousands of people spending cash, which is flowing into a relatively inadequate Brinks warehouse, protected by only three or four armed guards. And if the robber can distract the cops with an alert to a possible assassination, it is his for the taking. Meanwhile, Lucas Davenport has his own problems. He is being targeted by a psychopath, who blames Davenport for the fact he's in a wheelchair. Only it's not Davenport he's going after; it's his daughter, Letty. ***READERS LOVE THE PREY SERIES*** 'John Sandford knows all there is to know about detonating the gut-level shocks of a good thriller' The New York Times Book Review ?

Novels sixteen through twenty in #1 New York Times bestselling and Pulitzer Prize-winning author John Sandford’s Prey series, featuring Minneapolis homicide investigator Lucas Davenport. BROKEN PREY Two bodies are found three weeks apart. Same condition, same display—but there's nothing to link the two victims, nothing to indicate that the killings end here. But that's not about to stop Lucas Davenport. INVISIBLE PREY A wealthy woman and her maid are murdered. Robbery would seem the likely scenario, except that none of the clues are coming together for Lucas Davenport. At least not those he can see. PHANTOM PREY After one troubled college-age student disappears and two are found slashed to death, Lucas Davenport finds himself hunting what appears to be a modern-day Jack the Ripper. WICKED PREY Out of Lucas Davenport’s past comes a psycho nursing a violent grudge. But why go after Davenport for revenge when Davenport’s young daughter is so close, and so vulnerable? STORM PREY When a simple robbery turns deadly, the thieves close in on the one woman who was the only possible witness: Lucas Davenport’s wife. They have only one option—eliminate her. And fast.

What Can a Pot Say About a Kettle? A Play By: Craig Attaway What Can a Pot Say About a Kettle? A Play by: Craig Anthony Attaway is the story of a heavy-handed single mother of three young men. Her name is Ms. LuPearl. Not only does LuPearl have the weight of the world on her shoulders, the burden that all mothers bear, she’s also hampered by maternal instinct to navigate her three now adult sons through the many pitfalls of life. This navigation is less solicited than unsolicited. LuPearl’s eldest, Donovan (twenty-eight) is away in the military and owes $10,000 in child-support. Her middle son, Franklin, (twenty-three) is an over-achieving college R.O.T.C. cadet who only returns home for funerals. Then her youngest, Zharquaviyont, (seventeen) struggles with sexual identity issues. He has no future plans whatsoever. LuPearl’s ex-husband, whom she divorced many years ago, has passed away and designated her the executor of his will and funeral arrangements… much to the displeasure of her four former sisters-in-law. However, fret not for Ms. LuPearl. For she is a worshiper.
