For psychologist and bestselling author Julia Shaw, this is both professional and personal--Shaw studies the science of sexuality and she herself is proudly and vocally bisexual. It's an admission, she writes, that usually causes people's pupils to dilate, their cheeks to flush, and their questions to start flowing. Ask people to name famous bisexual actors, politicians, writers, or scientists, and they draw a blank. Despite statistics that show bisexuality is more common than homosexuality, bisexuality is often invisible. In BI: The Hidden Culture, History, and Science of Bisexuality, Shaw probes the science and culture of attraction beyond the binary. From the invention of heterosexuality to the history of the Kinsey scale, as well as asylum seekers trying to defend their bisexuality in a court of law, there is so much more to explore than most have ever realized. Drawing on her own original research--and her own experiences--this is a personal and scientific manifesto; it's an exploration of the complexities of the human sexual experience and a declaration of love and respect for the nonconformists among us.",2022,"en","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kt4s7tdecckh53ywh4e6n2ky.jpg?v=c6d0167375","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks-3d\u002F01\u002F01kt4s7tcz81mef1qf9rmxrkzt.png?v=7a6e7c6804","LWK9vVKh_NS~]layJmay-=X7axoL",0,240,273,"pending",true,false,[21],{"id":22,"slug":23,"name":24,"role":25,"bio":26},"01kt4s7td9y3s7hdrprrfz2m80","julia-shaw-irdm","Julia Shaw","author","Julia Shaw writes about relationships and identity.

Set in Milwaukee during the 1970s and early '80s, the book follows both boys through Eastview Junior High and Revere High School — a period marked by bullying, isolation, and the slow hardening of Dahmer's pathology. Told in stark black-and-white panels, Backderf reconstructs their shared adolescence: Dahmer's binge drinking, his obsession with roadkill, his desperate need for attention, and the failure of every adult around him to see what was already forming beneath the surface.

Still, when detectives asked for victims to come forward, she sent a note. With her criminal case file reopened, she saw for the first time evidence that corroborated her memories. Here were depictions of the naïve, hardworking girl she'd been, a chorister and debater, the daughter of a priest; of the two senior athletes who assaulted her and were allowed to graduate with awards; and of the faculty, doctors, and priests who had known about Crawford's assault and gone to great lengths to bury it. Now a wife, mother, and writer living on the other side of the country, Crawford learned that police had uncovered astonishing proof of an institutional silencing years before, and that unnamed powers were still trying to block her case. The slander, innuendo, and lack of adult concern that Crawford had experienced as a student hadn't been the imagined effects of trauma, after all: these were the actions of a school that prized its reputation above anything, even a child. This revelation launched Crawford on an extraordinary inquiry into the ways gender, privilege, and power shaped her experience as a girl at the gates of America's elite. Her investigation looks beyond the sprawling playing fields and soaring chapel towers of crucibles of power like St. Paul's, whose reckoning is still to come. And it runs deep into the channels of shame and guilt, witness and silencing, that dictate who can speak and who is heard in American society. An insightful, mature, beautifully written memoir, Notes on a Silencing is an arresting coming-of-age story that wrestles with an essential question for our time: what telling of a survivor's story will finally force a remedy?\" --","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx27x101a6ywejp2trpeyt23.jpg?v=195a73f9bc","LEBp5w_0Ipt6~n?FxDs.^%t7D+Rk",2020,"3.00",400,[461],{"id":462,"slug":463,"name":464},"01kx27x0zrw9wv52302kf5f000","lacy-crawford-9d4g","Lacy Crawford",[466,467,468,469],{"id":138,"name":139,"slug":140,"is_fiction":19},{"id":79,"name":80,"slug":81,"is_fiction":19},{"id":70,"name":71,"slug":72,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":186,"complexity":7,"audience":93,"mood":472,"themes":473,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[95,145,96],[],{"id":475,"slug":476,"title":477,"description":478,"primary_cover_url":479,"cover_blurhash":480,"first_publish_year":481,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":482,"authors":483,"genres":488,"series":492,"enrichment":493},"01kx2ezfad0feqns54rgfbq9m2","aftershocks-3a5e","Aftershocks","In the tradition of The Glass Castle, this “gorgeous” (The New York Times, Editors’ Choice) and deeply felt memoir from Whiting Award winner Nadia Owusu tells the “incredible story” (Malala Yousafzai) about the push and pull of belonging, the seismic emotional toll of family secrets, and the heart it takes to pull through. “In Aftershocks, Nadia Owusu tells the incredible story of her young life. How does a girl—abandoned by her mother at age two and orphaned at thirteen when her beloved father dies—find her place in the world? This memoir is the story of Nadia creating her own solid ground across countries and continents. I know the struggle of rebuilding your life in an unfamiliar place. While some of you might be familiar with that and some might not, I hope you’ll take as much inspiration and hope from her story as I did.” —MALALA YOUSAFZAI ​ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF 2021 SELECTED BY VULTURE, TIME, ESQUIRE, NPR, AND VOGUE! Young Nadia Owusu followed her father, a United Nations official, from Europe to Africa and back again. Just as she and her family settled into a new home, her father would tell them it was time to say their goodbyes. The instability wrought by Nadia’s nomadic childhood was deepened by family secrets and fractures, both lived and inherited. Her Armenian American mother, who abandoned Nadia when she was two, would periodically reappear, only to vanish again. Her father, a Ghanaian, the great hero of her life, died when she was thirteen. After his passing, Nadia’s stepmother weighed her down with a revelation that was either a bombshell secret or a lie, rife with shaming innuendo. With these and other ruptures, Nadia arrived in New York as a young woman feeling stateless, motherless, and uncertain about her future, yet eager to find her own identity. What followed, however, were periods of depression in which she struggled to hold herself and her siblings together. “A magnificent, complex assessment of selfhood and why it matters” (Elle), Aftershocks depicts the way she hauled herself from the wreckage of her life’s perpetual quaking, the means by which she has finally come to understand that the only ground firm enough to count on is the one written into existence by her own hand. “Full of narrative risk and untrammeled lyricism” (The Washington Post), Aftershocks joins the likes of Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight and William Styron’s Darkness Visible, and does for race identity what Maggie Nelson does for gender identity in The Argonauts.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2ezfaspm4khb55e9hdag3g.jpg?v=abd45b6424","LZM3Tb=Y}qW,:+O=,pt7BoIpwgV[",2021,320,[484],{"id":485,"slug":486,"name":487},"01kx2ezfanvz9stpf6aa86geg2","nadia-owusu-iafq","Nadia Owusu",[489,490,491],{"id":70,"name":71,"slug":72,"is_fiction":19},{"id":138,"name":139,"slug":140,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":92,"complexity":7,"audience":93,"mood":494,"themes":495,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[222,145,144],[],{"id":497,"slug":498,"title":499,"description":500,"primary_cover_url":501,"cover_blurhash":502,"first_publish_year":503,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":504,"authors":505,"genres":510,"series":514,"enrichment":515},"01kx2951hfcerganp7n353sa9r","more-than-enough-dqal","More Than Enough","INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER WINNER OF THE 2020 NAACP IMAGE AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING LITERARY WORK — BIOGRAPHY\u002FAUTOBIOGRAPHY NOW OPTIONED FOR DEVELOPMENT AS A TV SERIES BY PARAMOUNT TELEVISION STUDIOS AND ANONYMOUS CONTENT “The millennial Becoming . . .

In this riveting and timely memoir, the groundbreaking journalist unpacks lessons on race, identity, and success through her own journey, from navigating her way as the unstoppable child of an unlikely interracial marriage in small-town California to finding herself on the frontlines of a modern movement for the next generation of change makers. Welteroth moves beyond the headlines and highlight reels to share the profound lessons and struggles of being a barrier-breaker across so many intersections. As a young boss and often the only Black woman in the room, she’s had enough of the world telling her—and all women—they’re not enough.

From the moment Americans wake up, we're bombarded with all-new terrifying news about crime, the environment, politics, and stroke-inducing foods we've been enjoying for years. We're judged by social media's faceless masses, pressured into maintaining a Pinterest-perfect home, and expected to base our self-worth on retweets, faves, likes, and followers. Our collective FOMO, and the disparity between the ideal and reality, is leading us to spend more and feel worse. No wonder we're getting twitchy. Save for an Independence Day-style alien invasion, how do we begin to escape from the stressors that make up our days? Jen Lancaster is here to take a hard look at our elevating anxieties, and with self-deprecating wit and levelheaded wisdom, she charts a path out of the quagmire that keeps us frightened of the future and ashamed of our imperfectly perfect human lives.

Now a journalist is following them. When Stieg Larsson died, the author of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo had been working on a true mystery that out-twisted his Millennium novels: the assassination on February 28, 1986, of Olof Palme, the Swedish prime minister. It was the first time in history that a head of state had been murdered without a clue who'd done it--and on a Stockholm street at point-blank range. Internationally known for his fictional villains, Larsson was well acquainted with their real-life counterparts and documented extremist activities throughout the world. For years he'd been amassing evidence that linked their terrorist acts to what he called \"one of the most astounding murder cases\" he'd ever covered. Larsson's archive was forgotten until journalist Jan Stocklassa was given exclusive access to the author's secret project. In The Man Who Played with Fire, Stocklassa collects the pieces of Larsson's true-crime puzzle to follow the trail of intrigue, espionage, and conspiracy begun by one of the world's most famous thriller writers. Together they set out to solve a mystery that no one else could.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx24qp74ghhkeb2y0q5hd7zr.jpg?v=e13a6d24d3","L58;Y[tS0MWB{c-pJ8RjHYsmtRt6",488,[552],{"id":553,"slug":554,"name":555},"01kx24qp70y5yfa0qj3kp7pkhq","jan-stocklassa-pbwk","Jan Stocklassa",[557,558,559,560],{"id":79,"name":80,"slug":81,"is_fiction":19},{"id":70,"name":71,"slug":72,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":165,"name":166,"slug":167,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":253,"complexity":7,"audience":93,"mood":563,"themes":565,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[564,96],"mysterious",[],{"key":567,"params":568,"works":569},"genre",{"genre":30},[570,594,617,639,662,687],{"id":571,"slug":572,"title":573,"description":574,"primary_cover_url":575,"cover_blurhash":576,"first_publish_year":577,"community_rating_avg":578,"community_rating_count":107,"page_count":579,"authors":580,"genres":585,"series":590,"enrichment":591},"01kx23z03dzj3e7ja6t8fa2b9v","not-my-type-one-woman-vs-a-president-6q6d","Not My Type One Woman Vs. a President","AN INSTANT INDIE, USA TODAY, AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! \"Delightful . . .

On a fateful day in February 2002, campaign manager Clara Rojas accompanied longtime friend and presidential hopeful Ingrid Betancourt into an area controlled by the powerful leftist guerrilla group, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC). Armed with machine guns and grenades, the FARC took them hostage and kept them in the jungle for the next six years. After more than two years of captivity deep in the Colombian jungle, surrounded by jaguars, snakes, and tarantulas, miles from any town or hospital, Clara Rojas prepared to give birth in a muddy tent surrounded by heavily armed guerrillas. Her captors promised that a doctor would be brought to the camp to help her. But when Rojas went into labor and began to suffer complications, the only person on hand was a guerrilla wielding a kitchen knife. The guerrillas drugged Rojas with anesthetic while one of them slit open her abdomen. Her son, Emmanuel, was born by amateur cesarean section in April 2004. His survival was miraculous, but her joy was soon cut short when the FARC took him from her when he was only eight months old. For the next three years, Clara was given no information about him, but her desire to one day see him again kept her alive. In early 2008, Clara was finally liberated and reunited with her son—to whom this book is dedicated.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx261n3qvk971kpa1ts0fx2t.jpg?v=673ddaa912","LIFhg:baE3XO-ixYnRoe|@NIIsjI",2010,256,[604],{"id":605,"slug":606,"name":607},"01kx261n3k5t80xy0mzb61mdmq","clara-rojas-3jsp","Clara Rojas",[609,610,611],{"id":70,"name":71,"slug":72,"is_fiction":19},{"id":79,"name":80,"slug":81,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":253,"complexity":7,"audience":93,"mood":614,"themes":616,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[96,95,615],"hopeful",[],{"id":618,"slug":619,"title":620,"description":621,"primary_cover_url":622,"cover_blurhash":623,"first_publish_year":503,"community_rating_avg":624,"community_rating_count":107,"page_count":625,"authors":626,"genres":631,"series":635,"enrichment":636},"01kx2bk08tj3mt47crfa5kcsk4","long-live-the-tribe-of-fatherless-girls-ucyq","Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls","\"The book I wish I'd had growing up.\" —Chanel Miller, author of Know My Name Best Books of 2019: Esquire O, The Oprah Magazine Variety Lit Hub Book Riot Electric Literature Autostraddle Finalist: NBCC John Leonard First Book Prize Lambda Literary Award New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice Selection Paste Best Memoirs of the Decade Elle Best Books of the Season Washington Post Best Books of the Month Indie Next Pick Indies Introduce Pick \"A fearless debut.\" — New York Times \"[A] gorgeous reckoning.\" — Washington Post \"Flat out breathtaking.\" — Lit Hub \"Gripping and gloriously written.\" — Elle \"Utterly unforgettable.\" — NYLON \"Unnervingly satisfying.\" — Oprah Magazine \"Deeply compassionate.\" —NPR.org \"Truly stunning.\" — Cosmopolitan Acclaimed literary essayist T Kira Madden's raw and redemptive debut memoir is about coming of age and reckoning with desire as a queer, biracial teenager amidst the fierce contradictions of Boca Raton, Florida, a place where she found cult-like privilege, shocking racial disparities, rampant white-collar crime, and powerfully destructive standards of beauty hiding in plain sight.

With unflinching honesty and lyrical prose, spanning from 1960s Hawai'i to the present-day struggle of a young woman mourning the loss of a father while unearthing truths that reframe her reality, Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls is equal parts eulogy and love letter. It's a story about trauma and forgiveness, about families of blood and affinity, both lost and found, unmade and rebuilt, crooked and beautiful.

As featured in When They See Us—the Netflix limited series created, written, and directed by Ava DuVernay that retells the story of the Central Park Five, the young men wrongly accused of this crime. Shortly after 9:00 p.m. on April 19, 1989, a young woman jogs alone near 102nd Street in New York City's Central Park. She is attacked, raped, savagely beaten, and left for dead. Hours later she arrives at the emergency room—comatose—she has lost so much blood that her doctors believe it’s a miracle she's still alive. Meet Trisha Meili, the Central Park Jogger. I Am the Central Park Jogger recounts the mesmerizing, inspiring, often wrenching story of human strength and transcendent recovery. Called “Hero of the Month” by Glamour magazine, Meili tells us who she was before the attack—a young Wall Street professional with a promising future—and who she has become: a woman who learned how to read, write, walk, talk, and love again...and turn horrifying violence and certain death into extraordinary healing and victorious life. With “moments of unexpected grace and insights into life’s challenges….Meili’s story—the story the public never knew—is unforgettable” (The Buffalo News).","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx23jntf5755fe2s0raaj2zw.jpg?v=02d0d32171","LVPP_hyCXlMd.TRksWo}tnVsVstR",2003,280,[649],{"id":650,"slug":651,"name":652},"01kx23jnt94mkg614b97mbk48t","trisha-meili-nggg","Trisha Meili",[654,655,656,657],{"id":138,"name":139,"slug":140,"is_fiction":19},{"id":79,"name":80,"slug":81,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":134,"name":135,"slug":136,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":186,"complexity":7,"audience":93,"mood":660,"themes":661,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[144,145],[],{"id":663,"slug":664,"title":665,"description":666,"primary_cover_url":667,"cover_blurhash":668,"first_publish_year":669,"community_rating_avg":458,"community_rating_count":107,"page_count":670,"authors":671,"genres":676,"series":683,"enrichment":684},"01kx2fecqv54fw63y1t49qh2yw","black-ice-pgog","Black Ice","Lorene Cary's debut memoir recounts her years as the only Black student at St. Paul's School, a prestigious New England boarding school, and the racial isolation that drove her toward marijuana use in an attempt to cope with loneliness and prejudice.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2fecrdh19ct42x0npmp5rb.jpg?v=c8d8160980","LMCHNcyZERnNPEaIr;jskEMwn$S%",1991,262,[672],{"id":673,"slug":674,"name":675},"01kx2fecr8zc0r43ctby3zd68f","lorene-cary-3dmq","Lorene Cary",[677,678,682],{"id":138,"name":139,"slug":140,"is_fiction":19},{"id":679,"name":680,"slug":681,"is_fiction":18},59,"Contemporary Literature","contemporary-literature",{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":186,"complexity":7,"audience":93,"mood":685,"themes":686,"setting_period":7,"summary":666,"content_warnings":7},[145,189],[],{"id":688,"slug":689,"title":690,"description":691,"primary_cover_url":692,"cover_blurhash":693,"first_publish_year":694,"community_rating_avg":458,"community_rating_count":107,"page_count":695,"authors":696,"genres":701,"series":705,"enrichment":706},"01kx266qjcyjwesd15qm19wzcf","imagined-london-a-tour-of-the-worlds-greatest-fictional-city-usi4","Imagined London A Tour of the World's Greatest Fictional City","Anna Quindlen first visited London from a chair in her suburban Philadelphia home—in one of her beloved childhood mystery novels. She has been back to London countless times since, through the pages of books and in person, and now, in Imagined London, she takes her own readers on a tour of this greatest of literary cities.While New York, Paris, and Dublin are also vividly portrayed in fiction, it is London, Quindlen argues, that has always been the star, both because of the primacy of English literature and the specificity of city descriptions. She bases her view of the city on her own detailed literary map, tracking the footsteps of her favorite characters: the places where Evelyn Waugh's bright young things danced until dawn, or where Lydia Bennett eloped with the dastardly Wickham.In Imagined London, Quindlen walks through the city, moving within blocks from the great books of the 19th century to the detective novels of the 20th to the new modernist tradition of the 21st. With wit and charm, Imagined London gives this splendid city its full due in the landscape of the literary imagination.Praise for Imagined London:\"Shows just how much a reading experience can enrich a physical journey.\" —New York Times Book Review\"An elegant new work of nonfiction...
