J. D. Vance grew up in the hills of Kentucky. His family and friends were the people most of the world calls rednecks, hillbillies or white trash. In this deeply moving memoir, Vance tells the story of his family’s demons and of America’s problem with generational neglect.

Traditional religion in the United States has suffered huge losses in recent decades. The number of Americans identifying as "not religious" has increased remarkably. Religious affiliation, service attendance, and belief in God have declined. More and more people claim to be "spiritual but not religious." Religious organizations have been reeling from revelations of sexual and financial scandals and cover-ups. Public trust in "organized religion" has declined significantly. Crucially, these religious losses are concentrated among younger generations.

Wrongful convictions have long been viewed as rare exceptions to an otherwise well-oiled criminal justice machine. But after years spent investigating the largest criminal courthouse in the country, Chicago's Cook County, Nicole Gonzalez Van Cleve began to suspect otherwise. When she discovered hundreds of cases indicting innocent Black youth of crimes they didn’t commit, she realized that wrongful convictions were more than a set of anomalies. Arresting and incarcerating these kids was the point—the crime would be tailored to fit.

In Honest Motherhood, Libby Ward candidly shares her journey of unlearning the myth of the ideal mother. She dives headfirst into the experiences many mothers have but few feel safe enough to say out loud—the lack of support, the guilt, the invisibility, the cycles they’re breaking, and the fantasies about a hospital stay just to get a flippin’ break. Libby untangles her social conditioning from learned trauma responses and discovers that letting go of unrealistic standards, asking for help, and prioritizing herself aren’t failures—they’re necessities.

The term “mental load” has become more familiar in recent years, but the popular understanding of the concept often reduces it down to managing a list of household chores and logistics. Sociologist Leah Ruppanner reveals that for women, mental load actually goes much deeper: It’s a complex form of emotional thinking that is invisible, boundaryless, and enduring. It’s not just making sure tasks get done, it requires thinking five steps ahead, keeping relationships intact, creating experiences that keep all members of the family happy and thriving, and more.

El autor retoma el relato de una vida de desamparo y violencia la noche en que a los dieciséis años, herido de varios balazos, entra a un instituto de menores. Con una prosa madura -cruda y directa-, González nos lleva a un mundo que conoce como pocos. Y como pocos, se aleja de todo cliché. La caída es insoportable. Arden las heridas de bala, desespera la soledad, se subleva la sangre que reclama cocaína, poxirrán y pastillas. ¿Y ahora? Tras las rejas, las voces de otros pibes quieren captarlo para uno de los dos bandos enemigos que manejan el instituto de menores.

בעולם של היום, השאלה למה להיות יהודי היא שאלה מתבקשת. שאלה שאין לה תשובה קלה. למה כל המאמץ הזה. למה ההשקעה והארגון, ההתעקשות והמאבק, הדם והכסף, המחשבה והוויכוח. למה...

האם באמת נועדנו לחיות בזוגיות, באושר ובעושר, עד סוף חיינו? האם באמת לכל סיר יש מכסה (אחד)? האם אפשר לאהוב יותר מאדם אחד בו־זמנית? האם אפשר לאהוב בלי לחשוק...

צריך לדבר על זוגיות. לדבר על מה שמרוב קרבה כבר לא רואים אותו, שהוא שגור ומצוי כל כך עד כי נדמה שהוא האמת שעמה נברא העולם. ובכל זאת הוא אינו כזה. והדיבור נדרש כדי לנער...
