Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Aging - The Autumn Phase of Life tells the story of the author, his wife and many friends and neighbors who are residents in a continuing care retirement community. Both touching and practical, the book considers how we get old, some of the misconceptions about old age and many issues that must be considered both before, and during, the final years of one's earthly life. Questions about financial planning, spiritual, psychological, emotional and bodily health are addressed and positive, concrete plans are presented for execution. Importantly, the book addresses the pitfalls of denying old age is happening. The personal stories told by the senior citizens interviewed by the author are uplifting, light hearted and full of wisdom. This book is a must read for those approaching retirement age, people with aging parents who are facing the difficult choices that old age may present and those who are already in their own personal autumn phase of life. An extensive bibliography will lead the reader to important books, periodicals and websites that are full of valuable information. Johnson, Ms. Kristen (illustrateur).…

Hardback. Etat : Good. A young, queer Palestinian American woman pieces together her great-aunt's secrets in this enchanting, memorable (Bustle) debut, confronting questions of sexual identity, exile, and lineage. As beautifully detailed as a piece of Palestinian embroidery, this bold, vivid novel will speak to readers across genders, cultures, and identities.--Diana Abu-Jaber, author of Fencing with the King A THEM BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR In a Pacific Northwest hospital far from the Rummani family's ancestral home in Palestine, the heart of a stillborn baby begins to beat and her skin turns vibrantly, permanently cobalt blue. On the same day, the Rummanis' centuries-old soap factory in Nablus is destroyed in an air strike. The family matriarch and keeper of their lore, Aunt Nuha, believes that the blue girl embodies their sacred history, harkening back to a time when the Rummanis were among the wealthiest soap-makers and their blue soap was a symbol of a legendary love. Decades later, Betty returns to Aunt Nuha's gravestone, faced with a difficult decision: Should she stay in the only country she's ever known, or should she follow her heart and the woman she loves, perpetuating her family's cycle of exile? Betty finds her answer in partially translated notebooks that reveal her aunt's complex life and struggle with her own sexuality, which Nuha hid to help the family immigrate to the United States. But, as Betty soon discovers, her aunt hid much more than that. The Skin and Its Girl is a searing, poetic tale about desire and identity, and a provocative exploration of how we let stories divide, unite, and define us--and wield even the power to restore a broken family. Sarah Cypher is that rare debut novelist who writes with the mastery and flair of a seasoned storyteller.…
