Ann Miles has been chronicling life in the Ecuadorian city of Cuenca for more than thirty years. In that time, she has witnessed change after change. A large regional capital where modern trains whisk residents past historic plazas, Cuenca has invited in the world and watched as its own citizens risk undocumented migration abroad. Families have arrived from rural towns only to then be displaced from the gentrifying city center. Over time, children have been educated, streetlights have made neighborhoods safer, and remittances from overseas have helped build new homes and sometimes torn people apart. Roads now connect people who once were far away, and talking or texting on cell phones has replaced hanging out at the corner store. Unraveling Time traces the enduring consequences of political and social movements, transnational migration, and economic development in Cuenca. Miles reckons with details that often escape less committed observers, suggesting that we learn a good deal more when we look back on whole lives. Practicing what she calls an ethnography of accrual, Miles takes a long view, where decades of seemingly disparate experiences coalesce into cultural transformation. Her approach not only reveals what change has meant in a major Latin American city but also serves as a reflection on ethnography itself.

"Unraveling Time" is the story of how an American foreign correspondent and a newsmagazine office manager in Germany grew up on opposite sides of the Atlantic, met, married, and started a family in Bonn in the mid-1970s, and then experienced history in Moscow, New York City, Washington, London, Bonn and Paris before returning to Brooklyn in 2000. It was a turbulent, inspiring time, with the war in Vietnam, then the collapse of communism in Europe and the coming together of east and west in the European Union, followed by dementia: the 9/11 attacks, the disastrous American invasion of Iraq, and the unending worldwide war against terrorism. Dementia then struck this family in a personal way, an unraveling made bearable by enduring love and these memories.

How far would you go to save your life? Would you go to the ends of the earth? Now, how far would you go to save the one you love? Would you go to the ends of time? Hamish and Odette don't know it, but their 10th anniversary is going to be a pivotal night in their already rocky marriage. Dying, it turns out, is a bad way to end an evening, but it's just the beginning of their problems. Unraveling Time sweeps back and forth through history, from Ancient Greece to modern Iraq, from Roman Alexandria to present-day Seattle. Hamish and Odette fight to regain what is rightfully theirs: their marriage, their lives, and their very future, all stolen from them by rogue minds, hungry for stolen lives. But how do you fight such creatures? How do you fight something that has an eternity to prepare?

Unraveling the Spreading Cloth of Time:Indigenous Thoughts Concerning the UniverseEdited by MariJo Moore and Trace A. DeMeyerDedicated to Vine Deloria JrExploring Quantum physics in relation to Indigenous peoples' understanding of the spiritual universe, this anthology includes writings from 40 Native writers from various nations.“Unraveling the Spreading Cloth of Time, MariJo Moore and Trace DeMeyer's brilliant anthology, explores an uncanny tension between Indigenous understandings of a moral, interconnected universe and the edges of western science and philosophy that -in time- come to the same conclusion.” ---- Dr. Phillip J. Deloria, Carroll Smith-Rosenberg Collegiate Professor of History and American Studies, University of Michigan, author of Playing Indian and coauthor of The Native Americans“Unraveling the Spreading Cloth of Time offers a very clear contrast between the Western science view of the cosmos as an object for study -- something external to the scientists -- and the Native American view of each person being a participating part of a dynamical, living web of connections. This anthology will be very useful in opening up readers to a vision and experience of the Native American worldview, which is presented expertly throughout the text as one of flux and change.” --- Dr. F. David Peat, Theoretical Physicist, founder of the Pari Center for New Learning in Italy, and author of Blackfoot Physics and Science, Order and Creativity (with David Bohm)

The 36/9 is a timing system that improves upon our current 24/7 system. At first glance, this system does nothing more than shrink our lengthy year to a shorter time frame, but a deeper analysis would prove otherwise. This 36/9 is not aimed at our yearly perception but works down to a quantum scale both physically and mentally. For the physical aspect of the 36/9, by increasing each minute and second to a larger frame, we have more space to explore and increase our precision. Now for the mental effect of this system, by reducing the length of time experienced by the brain, we can increase our rate of information processing. This simple alteration of our time system is the key toward our search for the truth behind creation and the hidden wonders of the universe, such as extra dimensions. In short, the 36/9 has been designed so that our society can be elevated to its next stage of development.

From the moment we take our first breath to the instant we draw our last, time weaves its intricate threads into the very fabric of our existence. It is an omnipresent force, an invisible companion that guides our every step, shapes our destinies, and measures the cadence of our lives. Yet, for all its ubiquity, time remains an enigma-an eternal puzzle that has captivated the minds of sages, scientists, and seekers throughout the ages.

One of the New York Times' 100 Notable Books of 2015 One of Financial Times' Books of the Year, 2015 A New York Times Editors' Choice A New Statesman [UK] Essential Book of the Year 2015 A Times [UK] Book of the Year 2015 Shortlisted for the 2015 Samuel Johnson Prize for Nonfiction Shortlisted for the 2016 Orwell Prize When Emma Sky volunteered to help rebuild Iraq after the overthrow of Saddam Hussein in 2003, she had little idea what she was getting in to. Her assignment was only supposed to last three months. She went on to serve there longer than any other senior military or diplomatic figure, giving her an unrivaled perspective of the entire conflict. As the representative of the Coalition Provisional Authority in Kirkuk in 2003 and then the political advisor to US General Odierno from 2007-2010, Sky was valued for her knowledge of the region and her outspoken voice. She became a tireless witness to American efforts to transform a country traumatized by decades of war, sanctions, and brutal dictatorship; to insurgencies and civil war; to the planning and implementation of the surge and the subsequent drawdown of US troops; to the corrupt political elites who used sectarianism to mobilize support; and to the takeover of a third of the country by the Islamic State. With sharp detail and tremendous empathy, Sky provides unique insights into the US military as well as the complexities, diversity, and evolution of Iraqi society. The Unraveling is an intimate insider's portrait of how and why the Iraq adventure failed and contains a unique analysis of the course of the war. Highlighting how nothing that happened in Iraq after 2003 was inevitable, Sky exposes the failures of the policies of both Republicans and Democrats, and the lessons that must be learned about the limitations of power.

“Searing, searching, finally scorching. Think Making a Murderer via Patricia Highsmith: an elegant kaleidoscope novel that refines and combines multiple perspectives until its subject is brought into indelible, tragic focus.” —A. J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window “Pitch-black and superbly written.” —Ruth Ware, New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in Cabin 10 “Top-notch grip lit…incredibly brilliant.” —Marian Keyes, New York Times bestselling author Oliver Ryan has the perfect life. Elegant and seductive, he wants for nothing, sharing a lovely home with his steadfast wife, Alice, who illustrates the award-winning children’s books that have brought him wealth and fame. Until one evening, after eating the dinner Alice has carefully prepared, Oliver savagely assaults her and leaves her for dead. But why? The people who know Oliver can only speculate about the reasons behind his brutal act: his empty-headed mistress Moya, vain and petulant; Veronique, the French chatelaine who tragically lost everything the summer she employed him in her vineyard; Alice’s friend Barney, who has nursed an unrequited love for her since childhood; Oliver’s college pal Michael, struggling with voiceless longings that have shamed him for years. What none of them understands is the dark secret that lies behind his immaculate façade. The revelations that come to light as the layers of Oliver’s past are peeled away are as brutal as his singular act of violence. His decades of careful deception have masked a life irrevocably marked by abandonment, envy, and shame—and as the details of that life are laid bare, Oliver discovers that outrunning his demons is harder than it looks. With its insight into the mind of a psychopath emerging from the wreckage of his own misbegotten past, Unraveling Oliver is a chilling page-turner, brilliantly crafted and unexpectedly moving, by a stunning new voice in fiction. Liz Nugent "presents a fresh look at a man hiding his violent personality in this intense character study" (Publishers Weekly, starred review). As powerful as Patricia Highsmith’s unforgettable noir classic, The Talented Mr. Ripley, Unraveling Oliver will enthrall you from its mesmerizing opening line to its equally shocking last page.
