Abstract: Iris Cooper grew up dirt-poor in Texas. Her mother left when she was a baby, leaving her to be raised by her rodeo cowboy dad, who was too interested in beer, whisky and women to be a good father to her or to provide what she needed. On top of her innocent beauty, Iris had a rare gift: she had the voice of an angel. After singing in downtrodden bars across the state from the age of twelve, and then many years on the road with different bands suffering at the hands of greedy managers with no scruples, she finally gets a lucky break when she meets Boy, another talented singer, in Jackson Hole. Together they make their way to New York where Iris’s talent is recognized and nurtured by one of the top agents in the business. A star is born and Iris finally gets the success she deserves. But then tragedy strikes, and through it Iris discovers another kind of love . . .

Abstract: Widerwillig kehrt Marko in seine alte Heimat zurück. In Fužine, dem Vorort von Ljubljana, ist nichts mehr so, wie es war. Die Leute hängen nicht mehr in Trainingsanzügen vor dem Block ab. Die Jugendlichen beschmieren keine Aufzüge mehr und sehen jetzt aus wie brave Geklonte. Er gehört nicht mehr hierher und fühlt sich wie ein Außerirdischer. Seine Freunde sind Junkies oder zum Islam konvertiert, sein Vater hat einen Tumor und tut so, als ginge ihm das am Arsch vorbei. Nach zehn Jahren in der bosnischen Provinz bei Oma und Opa und nach einer unglücklichen Liebe zu einer abgefahrenen Muslimin versucht er dort, wo er nie zu Hause war, seinen Platz zu finden.

Abstract: A delicious picture book about the ways plantains shape Latinx culture, community, and family, told through a young girl’s experiences in the kitchen with her abuela. Abuela says, “plátanos are love.” I thought they were food. But Abuela says they feed us in more ways than one. With every pop of the tostones, mash of the mangú, and sizzle of the maduros, a little girl learns that plátanos are her history, they are her culture, and, most importantly, they are love

Abstract: Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing. But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute take a very unscientific view of equality. Forced to resign, she reluctantly signs on as the host of a cooking show, Supper at Six. But her revolutionary approach to cooking, fuelled by scientific and rational commentary, grabs the attention of a nation. Soon, a legion of overlooked housewives find themselves daring to change the status quo. One molecule at a time.
