Singular poetry made through censorship, elusion, and language renewal

The astonishing poetry collection The Hell of That Star enlivens the horror of Korean life under U.S.-backed authoritarianism. Poems of blows and vomit, births and coffins alternate blithe confidence and trembling terror. When slapped seven times by a government censor, Kim responded with defiant poems. The death of language becomes a death of the writer; within death, Kim finds new life in fragmentation and reorientation. This singular volume provides a wild and rigorous study of the words of the nation-state and the self, as well as the deprivations, detainments, and surprises in between. In evading censorship, Kim's poems question, twist, and transmute; language is a site where the personal and political meet to escape containment, emptiness, and domestication. The book includes essays by the author and translator.

[sample poem]

The tough after all
we still remain
and just in gathering it is lovingly
even while building each other's tombs
while patting each other's backs

But when each bird turns around
their arms flung! open
embracing tightly what
they do not even recognize as their grave
and they hug and hold harder and harder
stretching four limbs out over the laid sleeping mat and blanket
saying I love you I love you even in their sleep
In this world from which crying birds have disappeared
only I am left

Across Europe and North America, far-right parties have strategically framed immigration as a threat to national identity and security, capitalizing on public anxieties around cultural change and economic pressure.

Part of the groundbreaking ethnoGRAPHIC series, Crossing Lines is a graphic anthology about human migration that challenges the rise of anti-immigrant populism. Research shows that it is difficult to counter these "us-versus-them" narratives with evidence alone. Blending visual and textual storytelling, this collection moves beyond traditional forms of communication to engage readers emotionally with the complex realities of migration.

Emerging out of a workshop held at the University of British Columbia's Centre for Migration Studies in 2022, this graphic anthology features eight powerful narratives, collaboratively created by migration scholars and comics artists. Crossing Lines considers the personal and social impacts of migration, offering nuanced perspectives accessible to a wide audience. Each comic is paired with discussion questions and annotated further readings to encourage dialogue and understanding in the face of polarizing public discourse.

Crossing Lines is a timely and indispensable resource for scholars, educators, and readers seeking to better understand migration in today's globalized world.

"Looking to make your home and the world more sustainable? The kitchen is where your actions have the power to make the biggest impact and Naomi Hansen has done all the legwork to find out where and how you should prioritize your efforts. This is a fantastic, well researched reference guide for all of us." --Bea Johnson, best-selling author of Zero Waste Home

Building a Sustainable Kitchen is the thoroughly researched and realistic step-by-step guide every climate-conscious consumer needs to make the heart of their home more planet-friendly.

When Canadian food writer Naomi Hansen first started her sustainability journey, she was overwhelmed by conflicting advice, shiny advertisements, and unrealistic recommendations.Building a Sustainable Kitchen is her antidote: a solutions-focused, no-nonsense guide designed to help you cut through disinformation and greenwashing to make your kitchen truly
sustainable, one step at a time.

In each chapter, Naomi invites you on her journey to build a planet-friendly kitchen with help from her husband Paul and their dog Rue. Drawing on wisdom from hundreds of sources--including interviews with experts, academic studies, books, and organizations on the front lines of the climate crisis--and on the author's own experience as a regular Canadian in her humble kitchen, Building a Sustainable Kitchen demystifies the science behind how what we do in the kitchen every day affects our Earth--and most importantly, shows you what you can do about it.

Each chapter contains a wealth of flexible recommendations for achievable, evidence-based changes that make a real impact for the planet. Chapters on reducing food waste, understanding plant-based, local, seasonal, and organic eating, and gardening teach us about the food on our plates. Chapters on the potential and pitfalls of composting and recycling, learning what it really means to send waste to a landfill, and navigating the nitty gritty of disposable and reusable items help us reduce garbage and grow toward a circular economy. From water use, to cleaning, to choosing appliances, to our beloved coffees and teas, Building a Sustainable Kitchen leaves no stone unturned. This heartfelt, practical guide proves that building a sustainable kitchen is not just possible, but that it can also be joyful and transformative.

In their thirteenth book, experienced gardeners and authors Janet Melrose and Sheryl Normandeau share their wisdom on growing veggies, herbs, fruits, and more indoors in our homes, bringing the greens inside and growing food all year.

Whether plagued by a short growing season or a lack of outdoor space, or inspired by a love of edible greens, there are a dozen reasons to bring the garden indoors. Plants outside their natural habitat need a totally different kind of tender love and care, though, and that's especially true of voracious sun-drinkers like veggies, fruits, and herbs. In their signature accessible question-and-answer style, Janet and Sheryl explain the differences between standard houseplants and edible plants and cover everything you need to know to have a thriving garden right inside your home.

After a strong foundational chapter in essentials like natural and artificial light, temperature, tools, and growing medium, you'll be fully equipped to learn about techniques like hydroponics, aquaponics, vertical growing, and grow tents. If you're daydreaming about what you can grow for the dinner table, dive into the nitty gritty of each type of gardening with chapters on microgreens, veggies and root veggies, herbs and spices, and fruits. After the harvest, learn about making more with less by growing from kitchen scraps. Of course, Janet and Sheryl also answer all your questions about what happens when things go wrong and help you tackle pests and mould, brighten up leggy plants and less-than-abundant harvests, and troubleshoot more complex growing systems. Full of valuable tips and tricks and heartening enthusiasm, The Indoor Garden is the perfect companion for first-time and experienced indoor gardeners alike.

From New York Times bestselling illustrator Dani Jones comes a heartfelt exploration of sisterhood, forgiveness, and outer space invasions.

Mary Seaver lives in her own world. It's not her fault if sometimes her enthusiasm creates chaos. To Mary, that's what being 10 years old and a huge science fiction fan is all about. Allison "Al" Seaver is Mary's older sister--and she's everything that Mary is not: cool, calm, collected, and super popular.

So it makes sense that when aliens invade their hometown of Pleasant Valley, Mary's trying to warn everyone about the end of the world while Al's just hoping it will all go away before the spring dance. But when a secret emerges from their family's past, Mary and Al find themselves turning to their most unlikely ally: each other.

Dive into Dani Jones's debut original graphic novel, a hilariously tender investigation of sibling dynamics, aliens, and what it is that makes us human.

Team Unihorn and Woolly have saved Burlap Beach not once, not twice, but three times. Now it's time for them to bask in the sun and enjoy some good 'ole fashioned R&R. And that's exactly what they get--until their cooler accidentally tips over and they discover a map inside a bottle! Where could it lead? Forgotten ruins? Buried treasure? A notable landmark

Determined to solve mystery, Team Unihorn (and Woolly!) set off to find what's out there--but the most priceless treasure might be closer than they think.

James Ciano's debut collection, The Committee of Men, explores the cycles of violence men inflict on one another and themselves, examining how silence, shame, and inherited expectations shape masculine identity. Rooted in the speaker's experience as a college athlete from a family of athletes--including a father who is a high school football coach--these poems confront the emotional weight of tradition and the often-unspoken struggles of male intimacy, mental illness, and familial pressure.

Through sharp lyricism and emotional honesty, Ciano delves into themes of belonging and exile, accountability and forgiveness, and the quiet damage done by historically unexamined masculinity, asking what it means to break these generational cycles without severing connection, and how healing might emerge in places where vulnerability is discouraged or denied. The result is a collection that is both unflinching and deeply humane--an urgent, resonant debut that refuses to look away.

The Committee of Men also includes a foreword by acclaimed poet David St. John, whose introduction situates Ciano's work within a broader conversation about masculinity and poetic tradition, and underscores the collection's emotional depth and significance.

At the Gate gathers more than seventy previously unpublished poems by the iconic American poet Lucille Clifton written over the last two decades of her life. Discovered in digital archives by poet and scholar Kazim Ali, these poems span a prolific and reflective period in Clifton's career as she shifted from typewriters to word processors and desktop computers. Many were originally drafted for publication, but set aside-until now.

Edited by Ali, this collection includes a contextual Foreword and detailed notes that illuminate Clifton's late writing process and the editorial journey of these poems--deepening and expanding the themes that defined Clifton's celebrated body of work.

At the Gate is a profound and necessary addition to Clifton's legacy--one that reaffirms her place as a poet of the body, the spirit, and the deep truths that we must endure--her voice as intimate, fearless, and luminous as ever.
