Woman's World Woman's World
by Rawle, Graham
Painstakingly assembled from 40,000 fragments of text snipped from womens magazines, this strange and wonderful novel moves at the breakneck pace of a pulp thriller. A stunning visual tour de force, "Womans World" is also a powerful reflection on societys definition of what it means to be a woman.

Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life
by Kingsolver, Barbara, Kingsolver, Camille
“Tracing the food year, Kingsolver—with her characteristic candor, poetry, and grace—brings us meditations on asparagus, turkeys, tomatoes, and mulch as she and her family try to eat locally as much as they can. This is a distinct hybrid of The Omnivore’s Dilemma, Under the Tuscan Sun, and Walden.” —Matt Plies, Annie Bloom’s Books, Portland, OR

How I Became a Famous Novelist
by Hely, Steve
A hilarious send-up of being an author, and all other aspects of the book business. Hely has written a captivating novel about writing a bestselling novel, while doing as little work as possible. The fake NY Times bestseller list alone is worth the price of this book! alone--Mitch Gaslin, Food For Thought Books (Amherst, MA)
