From the publisher: What makes “cult” so exciting and scary? What makes them powerful?

On the same subject : Science coverage of climate change could change minds – briefly. We secretly want to know: can it happen to me? Amanda Montell’s argument is that, on some level, she already has.

The Kingdom of Sand

By Andrew HolleranFarrar, Straus and Giroux$26 June 2022

From the publisher: This book is an emotional story of desire and fear – Andrew Holleran’s first new book in 16 years. The eponymous story is about a gay man who moves to Florida to care for his elderly parents during the height of the AIDS epidemic, and finds himself unable to leave after their deaths. Read also : Remarks by President Biden and Prime Minister Yair Lapid of the State of Israel. With a sense of humor, he talks about the ins and outs of growing up in a small town.

This story showcases all of Holleran’s tangible gifts; it’s a sexual elegance and a wonderfully honest exploration of loneliness and the endless need for human connection, especially as we count our days.

From Jeffery Payne, Book Department Coordinator:  We all research. We want a place of happiness, we strive for kinship or connection of some kind. The main character of Mr. Holleran is lost, alone and old. We don’t know his name but we are engaged and invested in his thoughts, observations and passions. Whether we readily admit it or not, we all long to be in a relationship with someone. Some of us are incredibly lucky, others will always be looking. Going into the isolation of the character, we silently asked him to find comfort and care.

The text embraces the humidity and mindless days of this Floridan, well-crafted words will give us pause, and make us grateful for the friendships we have in our lives.

The Library at Night

By Alberto Manguel Yale University Press $19. This may interest you : Joint Statement by the United States of America and Denmark on Cooperation in Quantum Information Science and Technology – United States Department of State.95 April 2009

From the publisher: Inspired by the process of creating a library in his 15th century home near the Loire, in France, Alberto Manguel, the famous author of books and reading, took up the theme of libraries. “Libraries,” he says, “have always seemed to me places of delight, and as long as I can remember I have been seduced by their labyrinthine logic.” This personal, deliberately informal, and comprehensive book offers a fascinating reflection on the meaning of libraries.

From Jeffery Payne, Book Department Coordinator:  Actually, I’m a book geek. Fortunately, happily, I was paid to be a book geek. I am fortunate enough to have the means and knowledge to serve up bookworms and those who are interested. I support and encourage those neophytes who have just found the books, not read, but physically, a tangible image resting in the hands. When someone asks about a book about books, this is the first volume that always comes to mind.

This adroit work is a high level of library science, better, ‘keeping books. Passionate desire. We are very dependent on hearing the beautiful voice of Manguel as it takes us to pieces of history, wise knowledge and undeniable love and consideration of literature.

We believe that important information needs to be seen by the affected people, whether it is a public health problem, an investigation report or the accountability of legislators. This report depends on the support of readers like you.
