Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Thicket opens into intimate encounters with the more-than-human world—rivers, birds, stones—and with a “you” that is not a person, necessarily, but also not not a person: maybe God, maybe an aspect of the self, maybe neither or both. Often speaking of/to the small or overlooked (weeds by a roadside, an abandoned silo), the poems orient themselves toward edges, transitional spaces like the one where fields shift into woods. Where does one body stop? The Thicket takes an interest in becoming, one thing flowing into something else. Excerpt from “At Cape Henlopen” All night wind insists in the trees, its unsteady hush funneling us down into sleep under the tender shelter the oaks, even leafless, make—all night their trunks creak and sigh and speak. Speak to me—I think the word protect until its edges dissolve, inside the tent that wraps us like another, thinner skin, rocked and chastened by the wind that doesn’t cease . . .

Book excerpt: Would you recognize a real scream at Halloween? That's the question haunting Norah Lewis. She heard -and ignored-her brother's last screams on the night he died. Because nothing in the haunted house was supposed to be real. Not the screams. Not the knife-wielding psychopaths. And not the blood.In the wake of the slayings, parent groups and PTAs lobby for a shutdown while thrill seekers-including many of Norah's classmates- clamor to visit the "real" haunted house.Tormented by survivor's guilt, Norah secretly plans to retrace her brother's final steps.But the killer hasn't chosen his hunting ground at random. And, like Norah, he plans to return.

Book excerpt: Now a Tubi original film starring Peter Dinklage and Juliette Lewis, this rip-roaring adventure set at the dark dawn of the East Texas oil boom is the perfect introduction to Joe R. Lansdale, whose work has been called "as funny and frightening as anything that could have been dreamed up by the Brothers Grimm — or Mark Twain" (New York Times Book Review). Jack Parker thought he'd already seen his fair share of tragedy. His grandmother was killed in a farm accident when he was barely five years old. His parents have just succumbed to the smallpox epidemic sweeping turn-of-the-century East Texas -- orphaning him and his younger sister, Lula. Then catastrophe strikes on the way to their uncle's farm, when a traveling group of bank-robbing bandits murder Jack's grandfather and kidnap his sister. With no elders left for miles, Jack must grow up fast and enlist a band of heroes the likes of which has never been seen if his sister stands any chance at survival. But the best he can come up with is a charismatic, bounty-hunting dwarf named Shorty, a grave-digging son of an ex-slave named Eustace, and a street-smart woman-for-hire named Jimmie Sue who's come into some very intimate knowledge about the bandits (and a few members of Jack's extended family to boot). In the throes of being civilized, East Texas is still a wild, feral place. Oil wells spurt liquid money from the ground. But as Jack's about to find out, blood and redemption rule supreme. In The Thicket, award-winning novelist Joe R. Lansdale lets loose like never before, in an action-packed adventure that's equal parts True Grit and Stand by Me.

Book excerpt: "The Ram in a Thicket focuses on the interface between Christian Science and medicine, and the ethical issues therein. Other topics which have received less attention than needed in our church discussion include: the law and children, the role of free speech and secrecy (the "dumbing down" of teaching will be included in this chapter), the value of community, self-knowledge, religious self-regulation, listening to prophetic voices, reconciliation of differing points of view and dealing with controversy, Biblical literacy, perfectionism, and distinguishing between dogma and doctrine. Input for this book has come from church archives, various research and histories, numerous interviews, and the observations of many long-time Christian Scientists. The book is intended to provoke thought among church members and others with a connection to Christian Science. Its goal is not to establish any new set of doctrinal positions, but to encourage a continual revival of Spirit and a fresh look at our church practices"--

Book excerpt: Jonathan Williams founded The Jargon Society--a publisher dedicated to poetry, experimental fiction, photography and visionary folk art--and has championed the underdog, maverick and outsider in the arts for 50 years. He has also published over 100 of his own books, pamphlets and broadsides of poetry, essays and photography. Jubilant Thicket collects the best of his poetry and teems with the eccentric, strange and boundlessly authentic--neoclassical poems, social satire, musical suites and lyrics. There is spleen, salt and a delicious -sarcasm, as Williams finds inspiration in Mahler and Mojo Nixon, Blake and whimmydiddles. There is nobody quite like Jonathan Williams: "He is one of the few poets about whom it could be said, he has never bored a reader."--Contemporary Poets "Of all the Black Mountain poets (teachers and disciples alike), Jonathan Williams is the wittiest, the least constrained, the most joyous."--The New York Times "Jonathan Williams is himself a kind of polytechnic -institute, trained to write poems as spare, functional and alive as a blade of grass."--Guy Davenport, from The Geography of the Imagination "Indispensable! . . . We need him more than we know."--R. Buckminster Fuller Of the thousands of essays and reviews published about his work, Williams writes, "The best thing yet said about me came from an undergraduate at the University of Chicago. His letter ended: 'Thanks for writing all those kick-ass books.'" Jonathan Williams's most recent book is A Palpable Elysium: Portraits of Genius and Solitude (Godine). He founded The Jargon Society in 1951, a publisher that, according to The New York Times, "has come to occupy a special place in the cultural life as patron of the American imagination." He lives on Skywinding Farm in rural North Carolina.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Alice Fay di Castagnola Award from the Poetry Society of America, this collection of verse from Atsuro Riley offers a vivid weavework rendering and remembering an American place and its people. Recognized for his “wildly original” poetry and his “uncanny and unparalleled ability to blend lyric and narrative,” Atsuro Riley deepens here his uncommon mastery and tang. In Heard-Hoard, Riley has “razor-exacted” and “raw-wired” an absorbing new sequence of poems, a vivid weavework rendering an American place and its people. At once an album of tales, a portrait gallery, and a soundscape; an “inscritched” dirt-mural and hymnbook, Heard-Hoard encompasses a chorus of voices shot through with (mostly human) histories and mysteries, their “old appetites as chronic as tides.” From the crackling story-man calling us together in the primal circle to Tammy figuring “time and time that yonder oak,” this collection is a profound evocation of lives and loss and lore.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the regulatory framework, regulatory objectives, regulatory logics, regulatory instruments, regulatory failures, and regulatory responses in China’s financial market after the global financial crisis. The book provides an in-depth analysis of China’s contemporary financial regulatory system, focusing on risks, regulation, and policies in practice. By drawing on public and private interest theories relating to financial regulation, the book contends that the controlled development of the banking sector, and the financial sector generally, has transformed China’s banks into more market-oriented institutions and increased public sector growth. However, China’s financial market and financial regulation have some inherent weaknesses and deficiencies. This book also offers insights into how this can be improved or adapted to minimize systemic risks in China’s financial sector. This book tries to prove that financial regulation is not just a vehicle for maintaining efficient financial markets but a primary tool through which the Chinese government achieves its political and economic objectives. More fundamentally, according to the law and finance theory, strong market and vibrant judicial systems are needed to further modernize China’s financial markets and market economy. The book will be a useful reference for anyone interested in learning from the Chinese experience.

Book excerpt: Tucker Wright's Clues for Life: What's a 4-letter word for an utterly oblivious, totally commitment-phobic, heartbreakingly gorgeous man with a pet pig named Bernadette? That'd be D-U-N-N, as in Dunn Johnson, my very best pal and fishing buddy since I moved to Licking Thicket. What's a 6-letter word for a nerdy, crossword-loving town doctor who's doomed to be hopelessly, thoroughly, irrevocably, in love with that straight best friend for the rest of his born days? That's T-U-C-K-E-R, as in me. But when I agree to let Dunn be my 24/7 dating coach, and he decides to get our whole nosy town in on the act, there's only one 5-letter word to describe the pair of us. F-O-O-L-S.
