Without neon, Las Vegas might still be a sleepy desert town in Nevada and Times Square merely another busy intersection in New York City. Transformed by the installation of these brightly colored signs, these destinations are now world-famous, representing the vibrant heart of popular culture. But for some, neon lighting represents the worst of commercialism. Energized by the conflicting love and hatred people have for neon, Flickering Light explores its technological and intellectual history, from the discovery of the noble gas in late nineteenth-century London to its fading popularity today. Christoph Ribbat follows writers, artists, and musicians—from cultural critic Theodor Adorno, British rock band the Verve, and artist Tracey Emin to Vladimir Nabokov, Langston Hughes, and American country singers—through the neon cities in Europe, America, and Asia, demonstrating how they turned these blinking lights and letters into metaphors of the modern era. He examines how gifted craftsmen carefully sculpted neon advertisements, introducing elegance to modern metropolises during neon’s heyday between the wars followed by its subsequent popularity in Las Vegas during the 1950s and '60s. Ribbat ends with a melancholy discussion of neon’s decline, describing how these glowing signs and installations came to be seen as dated and characteristic of run-down neighborhoods. From elaborate neon lighting displays to neglected diner signs with unlit letters, Flickering Light tells the engrossing story of how a glowing tube of gas took over the world—and faded almost as quickly as it arrived.

After two years in prison Ben Rice is ready to re-unite with his wife Kate. Their divorce means nothing. He owns her, and always will. Kate's marriage to Ben buried her for years. One especially brutal night finally cracked the layers of shame and hopelessness. For her own life and that of their small daughter, Kate's testimony to years of abuse put Ben in prison. Kate rebuilt her life and her dignity. Life has become normal, and she believes she is free of Ben at last. Then she learns Ben is out and Emma is gone. Kate must play this new game by Ben's rules. He plays a game of come and get me, dangling his daughter as the prize Kate must win. That is when Ben makes one final and inexplicable demand. Blindly Kate must make a choice that could end in horror, or that will renew her own will to survive. Maryellen Hess grew up in the rural south and graduated from the University of North Carolina with a B.A. in journalism. She later completed her master's degree in public administration. Maryellen still serves as Executive Director of a social service agency helping people with histories of severe emotional, physical or sexual abuse. While the characters in "Come and Get Me" are fictional the story's heroine, Kate, brings life to the very real psychological descent that binds victims to their abusers. The author suffered painful emotional upheaval in her own childhood by her mother's episodes of bipolar disorder and eventual suicide. The book is drawn as well from stories of people traumatized by many acts of violence against them. Kate is the voice of women driven nearly to the breaking point. Maryellen enjoys traveling, reading, crosswords and Sudoku puzzles. She lives in Canton Ohio with her husband and their blended family of five children.
