Summer Fun


Book Description

Winner of the 2022 Lammy Award for Transgender Fiction From acclaimed author Jeanne Thornton, an epic, singular look at fandom, creativity, longing, and trans identity. Gala, a young trans woman, works at a hostel in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. She is obsessed with the Get Happies, the quintessential 1960s Californian band, helmed by its resident genius, B----. Gala needs to know: Why did the band stop making music? Why did they never release their rumored album, Summer Fun? And so she writes letters to B---- that shed light not only on the Get Happies, but paint an extraordinary portrait of Gala. The parallel narratives of B---- and Gala form a dialogue about creation—of music, identity, self, culture, and counterculture. Summer Fun is a brilliant and magical work of trans literature that marks Thornton as one of our most exciting and original novelists.

Warning! This Book Is Offensive and Politically Incorrect


Book Description

This book is an invitation to every American. It is not the work of a political party or special interest group. It is a challenge to learn the facts, connect the dots, and think for yourself. Evelyn Cross is an ordinary American. Stories from her life reveal simple truths, such as the fact that dogs and cats can get along in the same house. Can humans? She also highlights how unrestrained anger escalates into violence and abuse. Every abuser blames his victim saying, “If he, or she, hadn’t said, or done this or that; I wouldn’t have needed to kick, punch, beat, or otherwise injure him.” The abuser feels justified. She urges everyone to read the Bible and learn its principles, regardless of personal belief. Why experiment using trial and error? The Bible tells stories of how people throughout history confronted challenges, how good people made bad mistakes, and the consequences they experienced as a result. Gain insights to make life better for yourself, your children, and your community. Ask the right questions. Learn the facts. Build a strong America based on wisdom and truth.
