Paperback. Zustand: Good. Struggling to find some meaning in his life, Duncan Beldon's world gets turned upside down when he's forced to confront--in his relationships and at work--the inexhaustible hunger of a real life mountain lion living inside of him. If the part of you that caused self-doubt had a face, would you recognize it? If your tendency to self-destruct had a name, would you know it? Told with humor, empathy and a driving narrative, MOUNTAIN LION BLUES is a surreal, dark comedy about the obstacles we place in our way that keep us from the love, success and well-being we've been taught since childhood are ours to expect. Part absurdist love story and part existential noir, MOUNTAIN LION BLUES speaks to the mountain lion-sized hole in all of us. "Adam Greenfield's vivid and bitingly funny prose explores love, loss, and the impulse to self-destruct. MOUNTAIN LION BLUES is not only a fascinating story, it's also an ode to those of us with a wrecking ball swinging around inside of us--this book is unforgettable."--Chelsea Hodson, author of Tonight I'm Someone Else Fiction.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Literary Nonfiction. On August 1, 1966, after murdering his wife and mother at home, Charles Whitman climbed the clock tower at UT Austin and ordained himself high priest of the first televised mass shooting and domestic terror spectacle in American history. Without realizing it, Whitman replicated a twisted version of the Catholic rituals he had learned as an altar boy, in a culture where he saw how priests and fathers could get away with almost anything. This gruesome liturgy has continued to repeat on TV and in headlines for more than half a century. In MAS: A SNIPER, A FATHER, AND A PRIEST Jo Scott-Coe uncovers a buried story to probe the hidden wounds of paternal-pastoral failure and to interrogate our collective American conscience. Contains extensive supplementary materials, including author's notes and sources.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Jex Blackwell Saves the World is a Dadaesque homage to Donald Sobol's Encyclopedia Brown series, or perhaps a Sobolesque homage to the Dada movement. The main character is a sixteen-year old punk with a secret genius for medicine and an equal passion for music; but life in her native Los Angeles home - filled with dark, gritty city streets and strange, sometimes desperate characters - is not easy. Emancipated from her abusive parents at fourteen and graduating high school early the following year, Jex lives alone and can't quite convince herself to go to college. Instead, she spends her days quietly tending to her job as a librarian's assistant, and her nights tagging walls and running from cops. In between, she uses her photographic memory and encyclopedic knowledge of medicine to help ease the pain of the disenfranchised dwellers of L.A.'s dark nights, daring to venture where even some trauma doctors fear to go. Trying to cope as a not-quite-adult in a massively adult world, Jex may not be able to save herself, but she is determined to at least save the world.…
