The Self on the Shelf examines the cultural and philosophical determinants of popular "recovery" books. Greenberg argues that this literature can be read as documents of the prevailing understanding of the self in American society. The construction of the self promoted by recovery literature is seen as a nihilistic one insofar as it denies the significance of what continental philosophy calls the Other. In this sense the self-help books are correct in their assertion that we have lost sight of how to love, but their proposed solution shows up as a recapitulation and strengthening of the conditions that gave rise to this situation in the first place. Greenberg's critique provides a commentary on the difficulties that face our culture in achieving any sense of meaningful community, and on the way that this problem surfaces in a highly popular discourse.

An American Childhood is the electrifying memoir of the wide-eyed and unconventional upbringing that influenced the lifetime love of nature and the stunning writing career of Pulitzer Prize winner Annie Dillard. From her mother's boundless energy to her father's low-budget horror movies, jokes and lonesome river trips down to New Orleans to get away, the events of Dillard's 1950s Pittsburgh childhood loom larger than life. An American Childhood fizzes with the playful observations and sparkling prose of this American master, illuminating the seemingly ordinary and yet always thrilling, dizzying moments of a childhood and adolescence lived fearlessly.

Self on the Shelf: I'm Worth More is a captivating read that appeals to a wide range of children about how acquiring things does not equate to love or validates their worth. By realizing their self-worth early on, they are more equipped to make smarter choices when it comes to whom they associate with, how they treat others, and how they view themselves. It is the ideal read for classrooms and family time because it is sure to invoke meaningful, heartfelt, and memorable conversations!Gracie Mae is a seven year old who celebrates her eighth birthday in the book. This is during one of the most impressionable times of her life. She gets excited when putting on her Princess dresses, baking cookies with her mother, or spending time with her friends. But nothing excites her more than receiving gifts for birthdays, holidays, and on special occasions. Unlike most eight year olds, she uses her gifts as trophies and stores them on a shelf in her bedroom closet. Over the years, the gifts have subconsciously become a shrine used to validate her self-worth. Until one night in a dream, she has an epiphany and her life is never the same. With a delightful rhythmic beat and stunning illustrations that deliver important life's lessons, Self on the Shelf: I'm Worth More is an ode to the importance of self-worth, respect, and kindness as seen through the eyes of an eight year old. It lends itself to much needed parental, classroom, and group discussions. (For ages 4 to 10)

Ever feel like you're losing a race you never signed up for? Everyone in Amy's life seems to be getting married, having children and settling down (or so Instagram tells her), and she feels like she's falling behind. So, when her long-term boyfriend surprises her with a dream holiday, she thinks he's going to finally pop the Big Question. But the dream turns into a nightmare when, instead, she finds herself on the set of a Big Brother-style reality television show, The Shelf. Along with five other women, Amy is brutally dumped live on TV and must compete in a series of humiliating and obnoxious tasks in the hope of being crowned 'The Keeper'. While inside the house, will Amy learn that there are worse things than being 'left on the shelf'? ***Includes an exclusive extract of Helly Acton's next novel, The Couple, out May 2021.
