Serge's tale begins in the spring of 1917, the third year of mass slaughter in the blood-and-rain-soaked trenches of World War I. When the flames of revolution suddenly erupt in Russia and Spain, Europe is "burning at both ends." Although the Spanish uprising eventually fizzles, in Russia the workers, peasants, and common soldiers are able to take power and hold it. Serge’s “tale of two cities” is constructed from the opposition between Barcelona, the city “we” could not take, and Petrograd, the starving, beleaguered capital of the Russian Revolution besieged by counter-revolutionary Whites. Between the romanticism of radicalized workers awakening to their own power in a sun-drenched Spanish metropolis to the grim reality of workers clinging to power in Russia’s dark, frozen revolutionary outpost. From “victory in defeat” to “defeat in victory." The novel was composed a decade after the revolution in Leningrad, where Serge was living in semicaptivity because of his declared opposition to Stalin’s dictatorship over the revolution. Sale price: $11.37 e-Book sale price: $5.37 Braided Lives by Marge Piercy ISBN: 9781604864427 | Page Count: 456 Dance the Eagle to Sleep: A Novel by Marge Piercy ISBN: 9781604864564 | Page Count: 208 “A delicious binge of a book. I had a wonderful time reading Braided Lives, crying real tears at the sad parts and feeling real elation at the happy ones.” —San Francisco Chronicle “Braided Lives is a big, rich book. This writer just gets better and better. She is allowing more flashes of humor and more generosity…her sure novelist’s hold on making a good story, her poet’s eye for careful detail... Braided Lives is a novel that tries not to simplify but to clarify and by so doing, it adds a great deal to our understanding of how things came to be as they are, and what some of yesterday might have meant.” —Marcie Hershman, Boston Globe Sale price: $12.00 e-Book sale price: $5.37 “Dance the Eagle to Sleep is a vision, not an argument… It is brilliant. Miss Piercy was a published poet before she resorted to the novel, exploiting its didactic aspect, and her prose crackles, depolarizes, sends shivers leaping across the synaptic cleft. The ‘eagle’ is America, bald and all but extinct. The ‘dance’ is performed by the tribal young, the self-designated ‘Indians,’ after their council meetings, to celebrate their bodies and their escape from the cannibalizing ‘system.’ The eagle isn’t danced to sleep; it sends bombers to devastate the communes of the young... What a frightening, marvelous book!” —New York Times Sale price: $10.77 e-Book sale price: $5.37 Fire. Elizabeth Hand | ISBN: 9781629632346 | Page Count: 128 “Hand is an expert at building mood and atmosphere in ways that you don’t realize until you feel it around you.” —SF Signal “A superior stylist.” —New York Times Book Review “Real enchantment . . . Elizabeth Hand’s work possesses it in every word.” —Francesca Lia Block, author of Love in the Time of Global Warming “Elizabeth Hand’s prose is a wiry, intelligent force that ranges from blunt athleticism to fluid luminosity.” —Katherine Dunn, author of Geek Love “A predilection for probing the translucent borderline between magic and reality . . . a beautifully nuanced, often disquieting style.” —Booklist Sale price: $7.80 e-Book sale price: $5.37 Edge City Sin Soracco | ISBN: 9781604865035 | Page Count: 200 “Brilliant…Edge City is truly an extraordinary book in every way: story, people, atmosphere, writing.” —Hubert Selby, Jr., author of Last Exit to Brooklyn “Sin Soracco cooks! Her writing is beyond hip—it struts and whistles down the last dark mile. Edge City, like her Low Bite, is the bad girl’s version of Mean Streets, an unbeatable double-feature for the fearless.” —Barry Gifford, author of Wild at Heart "Dark and sultry . . . an illuminating view of hell as a nightclub that never closes." —New York Times “Meandering through pools of booze and moments of tawdry sex and petty larceny, Soracco's dense, bravura narrative is a triumph of (hard-boiled) style.” —Library Journal Sale price: $10.17 e-Book sale price: $5.37 Pike Benjamin Whitmer | ISBN: 9781604860894 | Page Count: 224 “Without so much as a sideways glance towards gentility, Pike is one righteous mutherf**ker of a read. I move that we put Whitmer’s balls in a vise and keep slowly notching up the torque until he’s willing to divulge the secret of how he managed to hit such a perfect stride his first time out of the blocks.” —Ward Churchill "Benjamin Whitmer’s Pike captures the grime and the rage of my not-so fair city with disturbing precision. The words don’t just tell a story here, they scream, bleed, and burst into flames. Pike, like its eponymous main character, is a vicious punisher that doesn’t mince words or take prisoners, and no one walks away unscathed. This one’s going to haunt me for quite some time." --Nathan Singer Sale price: $9.57 e-Book sale price: $5.37 23 Shades of Black Kenneth Wishnia | ISBN: 9781604865875 | Page Count: 300 “Packed with enough mayhem and atmosphere for two novels.” —Booklist “Wishnia cuts a different path with his stories and novels, choosing subjects, settings, and characters of a sort the reader is unlikely to encounter in the mainstream of mystery and crime fiction. His fine sensibility and skillful prose will appeal to discriminating readers.” —Janet Hutchings, editor of Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine “With her sharp tongue, quick mind, and stubborn will, Filomena Buscarseal is the ultimate New Yorker: a cop, a woman, an immigrant who has made the city her own.” —Linda Landrigan, editor of Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine Sale price: $10.77 e-Book sale price: $5.37 Like what we do?
