Vene feels like she and her mother have always been at odds—since she was a child, the first word she used to describe Olivia was “cold.” When news of her mother’s imminent death comes, Vene returns to her family’s home in Napa to see if their strained relationship can be mended, only to find Olivia as harsh as ever and their reconciliation seemingly unreachable. But when Vene stumbles upon Olivia’s old cookbook, she discovers a passion within her mother she didn’t know existed. The clipped tone and quick judgments of her dying mother don’t match the young woman whose voice she finds between the pages—one that tells a story of romance, longing, duty, and aching heartbreak. Curiosity consumes Vene, and she embarks on an intimate journey to learn about the Olivia she never got to meet—before it’s too late. A captivating story told in alternating perspectives a half-century apart, One Friday in Napa explores the pains and joys of devotion as two women learn the price of loyalty, the power of secrets, and the meaning of sacrifice.

How gender and generation shape perceptions of place and time as told through the voices of Mexican teenage girls This book examines the lived experiences of Mexican teenage girls raised in transnational families and the varied ways they make meaning of their lives. Under the Bracero Program and similar recruitment programs, Mexican men have for decades been recruited for temporary work in the U.S., leaving their families for long periods of time to labor in the fields, factories, and service industry before returning home again. While the conditions for these adults who cross the border for work has been extensively documented, very little attention has been paid to the lives of those left behind. Over a six-year period, Lilia Soto interviewed more than sixty teenage girls in Napa, California and Zinapécuaro, Michoacán to reveal the ruptures and continuities felt for the girls surrounded by the movement of families, ideas, and social practices across borders. As they develop their subjective selves, these Mexican teens find commonality in their fathers’ absence and the historical, structural, and economic conditions that led to their movement. Tied to the ways U.S. immigration policies dictate the migrant experiences of fathers and the traditional structure of their families, many girls develop a sense of time-lag, where they struggle to plan for a present or a future. In Girlhood in the Borderlands, Soto highlights the “structure of feeling” that girls from Zinapécuaro and Napa share, offering insight into the affective consequences of growing up at these social and geographic intersections.

One Eye on the World takes readers on a serious yet humorous journey of the glory years of the newspaper industry. This was before the sad state of many faltering newspapers and the biased media in today’s world. The book’s title comes from the author, John L. Shields, losing one eye at one and a half years old. Having only one eye impacted John’s life, but he turned it into a positive and was known for his unusual sense of humor. Throughout a career in several states—West Coast, East Coast, and in between—his path crossed with well-known entertainers, politicians, and news makers. Readers will find an interesting recounting of history, from John’s birth in 1942 through the present. The author had a front row seat to some of the most dramatic changes in US history—events that changed the world. Readers will ride along with someone who spent almost fifty years in newspapers as a newspaper carrier, circulation mail-room employee, reporter, sports editor, editor, supervisor for groups of newspapers, and CEO/publisher. Those years—from 1959 to 2007—were some of the most turbulent, and brought some of the most dramatic changes for the country, both good and bad. John’s stories give readers insight into a reporter-editor-photographer covering schools, tragedies, corruption, and human interest. These stories bring readers into the newsroom of daily newspapers, and how decisions are made.

“” This manuscript was not supposed to go public. However, because it was written in three joined parts and over two consecutive years, there was a problem as to what to call it chronically, 1969-2011 or 1969-2012. So the author chose the latter. Author, Mr. Redus, has looked into the cathode ray tube of his soul to find his way out of his "commonplace silencing." (It is what A Quotidian Quash really means). Actually, in his book, the evolving cosmological TV energy of his puzzling psychiatric history from junior college years to decades as a psychiatric inpatient unfolds and jumps. A Quotidian Quash also puts forth two new cosmic theories, RCTVU (relativistic color television universe) and STS (space-time sphere), as Mr. Redus also "blows the whistle" on California's Department of State hospitals for being a psychiatric minatorial minotaur masquerading as a menial mentor. There is evidence of his many past psychiatrists' paranoia in this book, but when his psychiatric future arrives, his tomorrow, comes to us as his RCTVU theory, pristine and virgin, it is excellent and okay as it puts itself in his creative hands. Moreover, it requires that we have learned something from our evolutionary yesterday or from God in and subtly outside of his book's other speculative theory, STS theory. This is a book of many therapeutic letters mostly to his California therapists. And in it, we learn that they were so very interested in recording "something wrong" with him, their long-term psychiatric patient, Mr. Redus, that there became "something very obviously paranoid and wrong" with how all of his California therapists treated him, their long-term psychiatric patient, from the start of his treatment to the finish of my treatment with them. Mr. Redus was sequestered by psychiatrists who were checked and balanced only by their own inappropriate oblivion to their regular mistakes and convenient misstatements.
