In a dilapidated and isolated old house, something peculiar seems to happen whenever the town’s bestial exterminator visits. On a seemingly bucolic country estate, the head of the household is a living corpse obsessed with other corpses. An adolescent boy who passes his days in private dream worlds experiences a sexual awakening spurred by his family’s scandalous tenant. In these and other stories, the modernist writer Alexei Remizov offers a panorama of Russian mythology, the supernatural, rural grotesques, and profound religious faith in fiery revolutionary settings. Alexei Remizov was one of the greatest writers of the Russian symbolist movement of the early twentieth century. In the thirteen stories collected in this volume, his exceptional stylistic achievements are on full display. Equally drawing on rural colloquial speech, the language of Russian fairy tales, and the customs of the Old Believers and Russian Orthodoxy, they transport the reader into a mysterious world in between uncanny folktales and encroaching modernity. The Little Devil and Other Stories includes works from across Remizov’s career, encompassing his thematic preoccupations and stylistic experimentation. Antonina W. Bouis’s translation captures Remizov’s many registers to offer English-language readers a sampling of a remarkable Russian writer.

NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST • A sweeping, genre-bending “masterpiece” (Minneapolis Star Tribune) exploring Black art, music, and culture in all their glory and complexity—from Soul Train, Aretha Franklin, and James Brown to The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Whitney Houston, and Beyoncé ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: Chicago Tribune, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The Dallas Morning News, Publishers Weekly “Gorgeous essays that reveal the resilience, heartbreak, and joy within Black performance.”—Brit Bennett, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Vanishing Half “I was a devil in other countries, and I was a little devil in America, too.” Inspired by these few words, spoken by Josephine Baker at the 1963 March on Washington, MacArthur “Genius Grant” Fellow and bestselling author Hanif Abdurraqib has written a profound and lasting reflection on how Black performance is inextricably woven into the fabric of American culture. Each moment in every performance he examines—whether it’s the twenty-seven seconds in “Gimme Shelter” in which Merry Clayton wails the words “rape, murder,” a schoolyard fistfight, a dance marathon, or the instant in a game of spades right after the cards are dealt—has layers of resonance in Black and white cultures, the politics of American empire, and Abdurraqib’s own personal history of love, grief, and performance. Touching on Michael Jackson, Patti LaBelle, Billy Dee Williams, the Wu-Tan Clan, Dave Chappelle, and more, Abdurraqib writes prose brimming with jubilation and pain. With care and generosity, he explains the poignancy of performances big and small, each one feeling intensely familiar and vital, both timeless and desperately urgent. Filled with sharp insight, humor, and heart, A Little Devil in America exalts the Black performance that unfolds in specific moments in time and space—from midcentury Paris to the moon, and back down again to a cramped living room in Columbus, Ohio. WINNER OF THE ANDREW CARNEGIE MEDAL AND THE GORDON BURN PRIZE • FINALIST FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD AND THE PEN/DIAMONSTEIN-SPIELVOGEL AWARD ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New York Times Book Review, Time, The Boston Globe, NPR, Rolling Stone, Esquire, BuzzFeed, Thrillist, She Reads, BookRiot, BookPage, Electric Lit, The Rumpus, LitHub, Library Journal, Booklist

JORDYN My life's been laid out for me since before I was born. Graduate high school, marry the mayor's son, get my degree and take over my mother's company. I don't want it - I don't want any of it - but I'd never say that out loud. Girls like me aren't supposed to speak our minds. We're supposed to smile and look pretty and do as we're told without argument. I keep my mouth shut for an easy life. A boring life. But then I met him. Xander Reid doesn't follow rules. He's a cocky bad boy with a devil may care attitude and a tongue bar I can't stop staring at. He treats life like a game and dares me to play with him. And even though I know he's bad for me, I'm not sure how much longer I can resist. XANDER Lakewood is supposed to be a punishment. A way to fix me and my unusual take on life. Seven months before the end of my senior year, my parents ship me off to live in a strange town with a family I barely know and a private school full of entitled rich kids. They seem to forget change doesn't bother me. I get bored easily, can't sit still for five minutes and nothing holds my attention. But then I met her. Jordyn James isn't as innocent as she makes out to be. She's a bad girl trapped in a life fit for a princess, desperate for freedom from the chains that hold her back. Making her mine just might be the worst thing I've ever done, and yet I regret nothing. This is a 65k word, opposites attract romance with themes some readers might find offensive. Complete standalone with a HEA and no cliffhanger.

All children face temptation. Do I do what my parents tell me or not? Do I do the chores I’m asked to do or not? Do I take care of my little sister for my parents as they go clean the church or not? What if there’s an unseen enemy lurking about putting thoughts in our minds, trying to get us to stumble and make the wrong choices? What if we have the power in God’s strength to overcome those intrusive thoughts? The Little Devil That Couldn’t is such a story. This story pulls back the curtain, if you will, and puts evil on display. Little Joey, the main character of this story, has this unseen enemy, but seen by us, trying to get him to stumble and make wrong choices. He is tasked with the responsibility of taking his little sister to the park for the afternoon. Then this little devil shows up, trying to get him aggravated and upset with the demands of the situation and his little sister. Joey would rather be hanging out with his school friends, but his little sister wants to play longer and even wants ice cream. As little Joey begins to overcome all the suggestions of this little devil, you see something happen in his heart and life. He repents of his thoughts and actions toward his little sister and the request of his parents. The little devil sees he is getting nowhere fast and eventually moves on to an easier target, William the school bully. As Joey gets home after an exhausting day, his parents thank him for his obedience and rewards him and his sister with something all kids love to do. Enjoy this story. And I pray it challenges, uplifts, and encourages you in your walk with the Lord.

Sterling was another soul lost to addiction. He was a schizophrenic plagued by the little devil man. Heroin saved him from that reality so many times. Most people aren't plagued by creatures, but what are they plagued by? What reality are they escaping? Sterling's story gives us some of the answers we seek. One thing is for certain, his story teaches us the importance of human connection and how to love. Not to love the addiction, but to love the person behind the addiction. It teaches us to the importance of helping others through dark times without judgment. This emotionally riveting story shows how good can triumph over evil in ways we never can anticipate. Expect to both cry and laugh. '""Living with the Little Devil Man"" introduces us to Sterling, a young man with searing blue eyes. The life Sterling was dealt: childhood cruelty, serious mental illness, and addiction, is woven into an energetic, funny, attractive young man that we come to care for as much as his adoptive mother who opened her home and family to him. Who does that? Who lets in addiction and mental illness, sleepless nights, and worry? This story is unaltered by resentment or judgment. It is a frank telling of one young life, lived with zest despite the terrible odds against him, and the woman who opens our hearts to let him in.' Dominique Simon-Levine PhD--Founder of AlliesinRecovery.net 'Reading ""Living with the Little Devil Man"" was like being on a train that I knew was going to be wrecked. I was on the train, I met all of the passengers and developed feelings for them and about them. I desperately wanted to be able to stop that train. I cried so many times while reading the book that I can...t count them. This book encompasses intimacy, compassion, and horror, but it also gives us a sense of hope, passion, and transcendence.' Eugene Isaak, J.D.--Author in Recovery '""Living with the Little Devil Man"" is a gripping story about the demons of addiction and the struggles with mental illness during the course of a young man s life. ""Living with the Little Devil Man"" brings out the humanistic side of it all and teaches us to love unconditionally, especially those who struggle with addiction and mental illness.' J. Bruno - Narcotics Detective 20+ yea
