Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the ALA Stonewall Book Award—Barbara Gittings Literature Award Named Best Book of the Year by Bustle Named Most Anticipated Book of the Year by The Millions, Electric Literature, and HuffPost ​The author of the “vivid and urgent…important and timely” (The New York Times Book Review) debut The Map of Salt and Stars returns with this remarkably moving and lyrical novel following three generations of Syrian Americans who are linked by a mysterious species of bird and the truths they carry close to their hearts. Five years after a suspicious fire killed his ornithologist mother, a closeted Syrian American trans boy sheds his birth name and searches for a new one. He has been unable to paint since his mother’s ghost has begun to visit him each evening. As his grandmother’s sole caretaker, he spends his days cooped up in their apartment, avoiding his neighborhood masjid, his estranged sister, and even his best friend (who also happens to be his longtime crush). The only time he feels truly free is when he slips out at night to paint murals on buildings in the once-thriving Manhattan neighborhood known as Little Syria. One night, he enters the abandoned community house and finds the tattered journal of a Syrian American artist named Laila Z, who dedicated her career to painting the birds of North America. She famously and mysteriously disappeared more than sixty years before, but her journal contains proof that both his mother and Laila Z encountered the same rare bird before their deaths. In fact, Laila Z’s past is intimately tied to his mother’s—and his grandmother’s—in ways he never could have expected. Even more surprising, Laila Z’s story reveals the histories of queer and transgender people within his own community that he never knew. Realizing that he isn’t and has never been alone, he has the courage to officially claim a new name: Nadir, an Arabic name meaning rare. As unprecedented numbers of birds are mysteriously drawn to the New York City skies, Nadir enlists the help of his family and friends to unravel what happened to Laila Z and the rare bird his mother died trying to save. Following his mother’s ghost, he uncovers the silences kept in the name of survival by his own community, his own family, and within himself, and discovers the family that was there all along. Featuring Zeyn Joukhadar’s signature “magical and heart-wrenching” (The Christian Science Monitor) storytelling, The Thirty Names of Night is a timely exploration of how we all search for and ultimately embrace who we are.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revising the standard narrative of European-Indian relations in America, Juliana Barr reconstructs a world in which Indians were the dominant power and Europeans were the ones forced to accommodate, resist, and persevere. She demonstrates that between the 1690s and 1780s, Indian peoples including Caddos, Apaches, Payayas, Karankawas, Wichitas, and Comanches formed relationships with Spaniards in Texas that refuted European claims of imperial control. Barr argues that Indians not only retained control over their territories but also imposed control over Spaniards. Instead of being defined in racial terms, as was often the case with European constructions of power, diplomatic relations between the Indians and Spaniards in the region were dictated by Indian expressions of power, grounded in gendered terms of kinship. By examining six realms of encounter--first contact, settlement and intermarriage, mission life, warfare, diplomacy, and captivity--Barr shows that native categories of gender provided the political structure of Indian-Spanish relations by defining people's identity, status, and obligations vis-a-vis others. Because native systems of kin-based social and political order predominated, argues Barr, Indian concepts of gender cut across European perceptions of racial difference.

Book excerpt: Have you or your family members given the Enemy "legal access" to your life? Billy Graham one wrote, "the wars among nations on earth are mere popgun affairs compared to the fierceness of battle in the spiritual unseen world." A battle in which mankind is both the pawns--and the prize. And, emotions are one of the devil's favorite tools to engage us in this battle. Do you struggle with poor self-image or low self-worth? Have you held onto grudges or resentments for extended periods of time? When you look into your past, can you recall physical abuse, mental abuse, sexual abuse, fears and phobias, or repeated generational issues? Have you, your parents, or your grandparents ever dabbled in the Occult, witchcraft, Satanism, New Ageism, drug use, Voodoo, Eastern religions, or solicited contact with any demonic entity? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions . . . then you may have given the devil "legal access" to your life. Crack open In the Devil's Toolbox and discover . . . * The spiritual entities we battle, and the weapons of this warfare * The hidden game plans of Satan and his host of demons * The three heavens referred to in Scripture--two of them are battle zones * The Laws of the Spiritual Realm . . . not knowing them leaves you completely exposed to the Enemy * What conduct can give the devil "legal access" to your life * How your emotions can become hiding places for demons * The three different levels of spiritual warfare, and the characteristics of each * Steps to determine if you are suffering from a demonic stronghold or bondage * The mighty weapons of warfare God gives us to demolish Satan's assaults * Instruction for breaking free of Satan's grasp and experiencing true freedom in Christ The devil's deepest desire is to keep you from accepting Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior. If he fails at this, he attempts to trap you into his strongholds and bondages to destroy your witness for Christ, and lead to your demise. Receive instruction for breaking free from the devil's hold on your life, so you can experience true freedom in Christ.
