Book Description

This book is made up entirely of stories told by dogs. in their own voices. Most people who own dogs know they can talk, but few know they can write. Professional writers are the ones most likely to discover this and when they do, act as ghost writers for their dogs. Some of the writers whose dogs tell their stories in this book are: Thomas Carlyle, Rudyard Kipling, O. Henry, and Don Marquis. Poetry is a favorite medium for dogs, and many poems are included here, including one transmitted through Robert Frost.

Book Description

If dogs could write, this is what they'd say: "MY LIFE is a one-of-a-kind autobiography, not only because it describes my interesting and unusual life, but also because I am a dog. And as far as I know, this is the first-ever canine autobiography." Science fiction writer James C. Glass says, "If you've ever had a dog for a pet and suffered through its loss, this book will be an emotional trip for you. I enjoyed Rushie's adventures, with a laugh, and yes, more than a few tears. Enjoy the ride."

Book Description

From the award-winning author of A Heart in a Body in The World comes a gorgeous and fiercely feminist young adult novel. When a teen travels to Hawaii to track down her sperm donor father, she discovers the truth about him, about the sunken shipwreck that’s become his obsession, and most of all about herself. Harper Proulx has lived her whole life with unanswered questions about her anonymous sperm donor father. She's convinced that without knowing him, she can't know herself. When a chance Instagram post connects Harper to a half sibling, that connection yields many more and ultimately leads Harper to uncover her father's identity. So, fresh from a painful breakup and still reeling with anxiety that reached a lifetime high during the pandemic, Harper joins her newfound half siblings on a voyage to Hawaii to face their father. The events of that summer, and the man they discover—a charismatic deep-sea diver obsessed with solving the mystery of a fragile sunken shipwreck—will force Harper to face some even bigger questions: Who is she? Is she her DNA, her experiences, her successes, her failures? Is she the things she loves—or the things she hates? Who she is in dark times? Who she might become after them?

Book Description

In this book, multiple authors and perspectives converge on the materiality of storytelling in order to court its potentialities and flesh out its tensions. Reflecting through its methodological multiplicity not only the vast array of discourses and disciplines that concern themselves with the study of narration, but also the various and variable subjects of the act of telling, the collective effort of this volume is less to map or track than to amplify the possibilities of contingent situations, embodied relations and specific texts in which, beyond the tale, the telling itself speaks and matters.
