Book excerpt: “Those who lament that the novel has lost its prophecy should pay heed and cover-price: Muck is the future, both of Jerusalem and of literature. God is showing some rare good taste, by choosing to speak to us through Dror Burstein.” —Joshua Cohen, author of Moving Kings and Book of Numbers In a Jerusalem both ancient and modern, where the First Temple squats over the populace like a Trump casino, where the streets are literally crawling with prophets and heathen helicopters buzz over Old Testament sovereigns, two young poets are about to have their lives turned upside down. Struggling Jeremiah is worried that he might be wasting his time trying to be a writer; the great critic Broch just beat him over the head with his own computer keyboard. Mattaniah, on the other hand, is a real up-and-comer—but he has a secret he wouldn’t want anyone in the literary world to know: his late father was king of Judah. Jeremiah begins to despair, and in that despair has a vision: that Jerusalem is doomed, and that Mattaniah will not only be forced to ascend to the throne but will thereafter witness his people slaughtered and exiled. But what does it mean to tell a friend and rival that his future is bleak? What sort of grudges and biases turn true vision into false prophecy? Can the very act of speaking a prediction aloud make it come true? And, if so, does that make you a seer, or just a schmuck? Dramatizing the eternal dispute between poetry and power, between faith and practicality, between haves and have-nots, Dror Burstein’s Muck is a brilliant and subversive modern-dress retelling of the book of Jeremiah: a comedy with apocalyptic stakes by a star of Israeli fiction.

Book excerpt: When Brandon Stivers and his family move into his dead grandmother’s river house for the summer, he is immediately drawn to the swampy area at the river’s edge. Susceptible due to his autism, it doesn’t take long before Brandon succumbs to the call of the dark spirits that reside there. He begins to offer small sacrifices to the muck in exchange for the euphoric feelings he’s never experienced, but when he meets a neighborhood girl named Amy, his summer takes a deadly turn. When Amy begins talking about tossing an obnoxious neighbor into the muck to cure her mother’s cancer, Brandon must decide how far he will go. He wants to please the girl he’s falling in love with, but he also knows that the muck gives, and the muck takes away.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Return to Muck tells of Marg’s experiences as a solo, older woman traveller in some lesser-known Scottish islands in the Inner and Outer Hebrides. On a budget, she mostly stays in hostels and bunkhouses, travels by car within the islands (except Muck) but takes no carbon-emitting flights. She walks, wanders and wonders, talks to islanders (age range from 5 to 97); comes across, usually by chance, stunning geographical features, exciting wildlife, ancient stones, folktales and other finds, many of which lead her to research and more discovery. Unusual subject matters include finding the connection between goose barnacles and barnacle geese; learning about Gaelic song; and stumbling across a lighthouse optic in a stately home garden. Two of these ‘finds’ become sources for poems. From this, an increased creativity emerges, some of which is a natural progression from her poems: that of composing songs and teaching them at other island schools as well as the Muck school. She bases the lyrics of these songs on a folktale pertaining to the particular island, thus allowing the pupils to express themselves musically and learn about their local folklore at the same time. She describes her own experiences of teaching the songs. This book offers a perspective only a lone woman traveller can give. It can serve both as a memento to those who know the islands well, and provide an introduction for anyone who has yet to discover them, especially those who yearn to travel alone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heartbeats in the Muck traces the incredible arc of New York Harbor’s environmental history. Once a pristine estuary bristling with oysters and striped bass and visited by sharks, porpoises, and seals, the harbor has been marked by centuries of rampant industrialization and degradation of its natural environment. Garbage dumping, oil spills, sewage sludge, pesticides, heavy metals, poisonous PCBs, landfills, and dredging greatly diminished life in the harbor, in some places to nil. Now, forty years after the Clean Water Act began to resurrect New York Harbor, John Waldman delivers a new edition of his New York Society Library Award–winning book. Heartbeats in the Muck is a lively, accessible narrative of the animals, water quality, and habitats of the harbor. It includes captivating personal accounts of the author’s explorations of its farthest and most noteworthy reaches, treating readers to an intimate environmental tour of a shad camp near the George Washington Bridge, the Arthur Kill (home of the resurgent heron colonies), the Hackensack Meadowlands, the darkness under a giant Manhattan pier, and the famously polluted Gowanus Canal. A new epilogue details some of the remarkable changes that have come upon New York Harbor in recent years. Waldman’s prognosis is a good one: Ultimately, environmental awareness and action has allowed the harbor to begin cleaning itself. Although it will never regain its native biological glory, the return of oysters, herons, and a host of other creatures is an indication of New York Harbor’s rebirth. This excellent, engaging introduction to the ecological issues surrounding New York Harbor will appeal to students and general readers alike. Heartbeats in the Muck is a must-read for anyone who likes probing the wilds, whether country or city, and natural history books such as Beautiful Swimmers and Mannahatta.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the glorious May of 1998, the governors of the Tanswold School Trust are looking forward to a new era in which they are about to build a new dining hall for their independent school. However, the unbridled optimism soon turns to despondency as they realise that the bursar has been doing DIY stock-broking with a very large bequest which has provided security for the school. For the band of elderly socialites that form the governing body this is not just a disaster, but a scandal that attracts the attention of the fraud squad of the Middle Riding of Yorkshire Constabulary who open up a financial can of worms. And it’s not just financial; the appalling standard of hygiene in the school dining hall leads to a serious outbreak of food-poisoning with heart-breaking consequences. The headmaster is placed under the spotlight and his management becomes more and more capricious as the spotlight is shone on him. The remaining part of the summer term becomes more and more of a comedy of errors as he loses his grip. As for speech day...

Book excerpt: In 1908, a man in dusty traveling clothes appears at Muck Creek Farm seeking news of his long lost father. There he meets a lonely young woman who finds solace in the root cellar, where she makes cherry cordial and is visited by the ghosts of Indigenous ancestral relations. Their story is part of a saga stretching over one hundred years, including characters both real and richly imagined. A west coast Nootka trader discovers an Ojibway girl on a river island, a girl who has crossed a continent in a series of gripping odysseys. A supply boat blows up and its owner disappears. A young woman nearly dies in obeying her great grandmother's last request. The settings stretch from the Great Lakes and interior rivers of North America to the west coast of Vancouver Island, from an earthquake in San Francisco to a fire in Seattle. Meanwhile, at Muck Creek Farm, a diverse group of settlers are living near an Indian reserve, where people in the Nisqually community struggle to maintain their history and survival. Muck Creek is a story rich in quest, in romance, and in historical embellishments - events that not only happened, but how they might have happened.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wetlands have a well-documented capacity for extracting metals, particularly uranium, from ground and surface waters containing only very dilute concentrations of the metals. The plutonic and volcanic rocks of the Colorado Rockies contain uranium concentrations high enough to serve as a uranium source to waters that feed wetlands. Reconnaissance sampling was conducted in 145 montane and subalpine wetlands in Colorado to determine how many of them are uraniferous. Forty-six percent of the wetlands showed the presence of moderate or high concentrations of uranium, but unless the price of uranium substantially increases none of the deposits is of economic value. Many of the processes responsible for concentrating uranium and other metals in organic-rich sediments of wetlands are reversible, however, and serious environmental consequences may occur if anthropogenic or natural disturbances change the chemical conditions in a wetland sufficiently to release uranium or other metals.
