Hello, Goodbye Again

By: Suzette Francis

Francis tells the breathtaking story of what happens after a Voodoo Ladys prediction comes true and biracial Sadie Winter is left behind by her white country singing mother, Annie, and forced to live with her intolerant, hard-driving grandmother on a mountain in Tennessee. Through the narrative of this audaciously curious girl, light is shed on the bigotry of this small, southern town, as well as the history of hypocrisy and secrets within her own family. But as what was meant to be temporary becomes long-term and the years go by and a girl approaches womanhood, will the Voodoo Ladys other predictions also come true? What might another upheaval do to Sadies life?

Earthsong

Earthsong

By: Suzette Haden Elgin

Originally published in the 1980s, the Native Tongue trilogy is a classic dystopian tale: a testament to the power of language and women's collective action. In the stunning conclusion to the series, Earthsong imagines a completely new way of being. The interstellar Consortium of Planets has forsaken the irredeemably violent Earth, condemning the planet to economic and ecological chaos. As the Consortium prepares to euthanize the planet, women freedom fighters are offered one last chance to correct men’s brutal nature and stop the planet’s annihilation. In the final book of the Native Tongue trilogy, female linguists must once again come forward to ensure the survival of humanity. “This angry feminist text is also an exemplary experiment in speculative fiction, deftly and implacably pursuing both a scientific hypothesis and an ideological hypothesis through all their social, moral, and emotional implications.” —Ursula K. Le Guin

Dr. Edith Vane is nicely ensconced at the University of Inivea and is about to see her dissertation on Beulah Crump-Withers published. All should be well. Except for her broken washing machine, her backstabbing fellow professors, a cutthroat new dean – and the fact that the sentient and malevolent Crawley Hall has decided it wants them all out.

SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2024 DUBLIN LITERARY AWARD WINNER OF THE 2022 SCOTIABANK GILLER PRIZE WINNER OF THE CITY OF CALGARY W.O. MITCHELL BOOK PRIZE WINNER OF THE 2023 GEORGES BUGNET AWARD FOR FICTION FINALIST FOR THE 2023 GOVERNOR GENERAL'S AWARD FOR ENGLISH-LANGUAGE FICTION PUBLISHERS WEEKLY TOP 20 LITERARY FICTION BOOKS OF 2022 OPRAH DAILY: BOOKS TO READ BY THE FIRE THE GLOBE 100: THE BEST BOOKS OF 2022 CBC BOOKS: THE BEST CANADIAN FICTION OF 2022 SHORTLISTED FOR THE CAROL SHIELDS PRIZE FOR FICTION SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2022 REPUBLIC OF CONSCIOUSNESS PRIZE When a mudslide strands a train, Baxter, a queer Black sleeping car porter, must contend with the perils of white passengers, ghosts, and his secret love affair The Sleeping Car Porter brings to life an important part of Black history in North America, from the perspective of a queer man living in a culture that renders him invisible in two ways. Affecting, imaginative, and visceral enough that you’ll feel the rocking of the train, The Sleeping Car Porter is a stunning accomplishment. Baxter’s name isn’t George. But it’s 1929, and Baxter is lucky enough, as a Black man, to have a job as a sleeping car porter on a train that crisscrosses the country. So when the passengers call him George, he has to just smile and nod and act invisible. What he really wants is to go to dentistry school, but he’ll have to save up a lot of nickel and dime tips to get there, so he puts up with “George.” On this particular trip out west, the passengers are more unruly than usual, especially when the train is stalled for two extra days; their secrets start to leak out and blur with the sleep-deprivation hallucinations Baxter is having. When he finds a naughty postcard of two queer men, Baxter’s memories and longings are reawakened; keeping it puts his job in peril, but he can’t part with the postcard or his thoughts of Edwin Drew, Porter Instructor. "Suzette Mayr’s The Sleeping Car Porter offers a richly detailed account of a particular occupation and time—train porter on a Canadian passenger train in 1929—and unforcedly allows it to illuminate the societal strictures imposed on black men at the time—and today. Baxter is a secretly-queer and sleep-deprived porter saving up for dental school, working a system that periodically assigns unexplained demerits, and once a certain threshold is reached, the porter loses his job. Thus, success is impossible, the best one can do is to fail slowly. As Baxter takes a cross-continental run, the boarding passengers have more secrets than an Agatha Christie cast, creating a powder keg on train tracks. The Sleeping Car Porter is an engaging and illuminating novel about the costs of work, service, and secrets." – Keith Mosman, Powell's Books "I thought The Sleeping Car Porter was fantastic! It strikes a balance between being about the struggles of being black and gay at that time while not being too heavy handed with it. I enjoyed his constant mental math on how many demerits he might receive for each infraction. The reader really gets a sense of the conflict that Baxter is going through. I really liked reading a book from the perspective of a porter." – Hunter Gillum, Beaverdale Books

Leaves of Sage

A Treasury of Poetry Written in Wyoming

By: Yvonne Suzette Stracener

The word Sage in Latin means to heal. I love those words. I also chose the name of this book, Leaves of Sage from a passage from one of my poems referring to poetry being seasoned with sage. I love to read my old poetry that I rhymed, reliving my fun thoughts, deep thoughts, my captured thoughts on paper cause I always want to save my thoughts for later. This book is a collection of years and years of different poems I have written while living in Wyoming since 1980. Some of it has been written while on top of a mountain while hiking, some are songs, prayers, Christmas poems, family stuff, and I always have my fun poems that I do love. I have written and published some books previously like, Autumn Blessings, My favorite full of blessings and prayers. I have written a children fairy tail called, Spell of the true love treasure under my pen name Lotte Win. I also have a short young adult scary story called, Shadow of the moon. That even scares me. I also write songs for Diomond Garden Records. I have 3 songs recorded with them so far. A few of those songs are in this book. I do enjoy writing and plan to do another one to Autumn Blessings next.

Rules for a Pretty Woman

By: Suzette Francis

Dr. Lenny Faulkner, a single, African American doctor is living a charmed life in Atlanta; compared to the poor childhood she experienced growing up in Madoosa County, a small southeast section of Georgia that reeks of the local box manufacturing plant. Lenny is dedicated to the care and treatment of her female patients. Lenny has been successful in achieving all her goals except one: She yearns to marry her live-in love Ralph and start a family. In fact, the alarm on Lenny's biological clock is ringing loud and clear---she's turning thirty-five, but Ralph, doesn't hear it. Instead of proposing, he abruptly ends their nine-year relationship, empties their joint bank account and runs off with another woman. Adding to Lenny's misery, she learns that her mother is dying of cancer, with only a few months to live. Feeling utterly defeated, she discovers her fifth grade diary, which contains a list of rules she had created to live by. Reading them after so many years, Lenny realizes that she has somehow buried the intensity she demonstrated in her youth that helped her get out of Madoosa County. The diary becomes the impetus Lenny needs to start taking complete charge of her life again. She discovers that Ralph leaving isn't such a loss and that her newfound strength has opened the door to new possibilities, including love.

AT THE END OF AN ERA. THE NEW DAWN BEGINS Leaving college is an easy choice for Maia Fuentes. With no siblings and a dead war hero father, stepping away to be alongside her sick mother is a no-brainer. But her summer full of job applications and hospital visits comes to a rough start when she meets the charismatic, yet annoying, Jules Devereaux, and learns of the Gifted— a race of ability-wielding people. Turns out she's one of them. When the Legion seeks Maia to join their effort against those threatening the secrecy of their kind, she’s taken to a small desert town to live among others like her, training and waiting for the day the twenty-five-year ceasefire between the Legion and the Elite inevitably comes to an end. With the threat of civil war on the horizon, the untold secrets of the past begin to unravel. But for Maia, learning the truth of her place within the Legion and the Gifted may be far deadlier than the lies…

We are here in all our richness.’ Adjoa Andoh, Actor, Director ‘This book is such a moving read for everyone of all ages and races.’ Colin Jackson, CBE ‘A reinforcement of evocative truths that hurt and sting deeply but also empower tremendously.’ Sharon Duncan-Brewster The whole world is watching. 25 May, 2020.

James Joyce and the Politics of Desire

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

James Joyce and the Politics of Desire

By: Suzette A. Henke

This title, first published in 1990, offers a feminist and psychoanalytic reassessment of the Joycean canon in the wake of Freud, Lacan, and Kristeva. The author centres her discussion of Ulysses, Dubliners, A Portrait of the Artist, Finnegans Wake, and Exiles around questions of desire and language and the politics of sexual difference. Suzette Henke’s radical "re-vision" of Joyce’s work is a striking example of the crucial role feminist theory can play in contemporary evaluation of canonical texts. As such it will be welcomed by feminists and students of literature alike.

The Ozark Trilogy

Twelve Fair Kingdoms, The Grand Jubilee, And Then There’ll Be Fireworks

By: Suzette Haden Elgin

The Ozark Trilogy (previously published in 1981, Doubleday) is a widely acclaimed fantasy/science fiction story with, as the title suggests, very strong ties to the Ozark region. Twelve Fair Kingdoms, The Grand Jubilee, And Then There’ll Be Fireworks—the books that comprise the trilogy—chronicle life on the planet Ozark and its Confederation of Continents, which are appropriately named Arkansaw, Oklahomah, Mizzurah, Tinaseeh, Kintucky, and Marktwain. However, the story told here involves much more than a mere transplant of Ozark culture and heritage onto a new planet. While this new Ozark culture maintains and even intensifies many of the “real” Ozark traditions and customs (for instance, “Grannys” hold significant, stabilizing social roles and are important sources of wisdom), the planet Ozark combines many new, fantastical elements with traditional ways. Mules on Ozark fly, and the wise “Grannys” also work magic. The protagonist of The Ozark Trilogy, Responsible of Brightwater, appears at the center of Ozark society, a society she must save from evil magic, civil war, and, ultimately, alien invasion. As Responsible travels from continent to continent in an attempt to discover and squelch the evil magic and calm the civil unrest, we are witness to many dangerous and sometimes comical adventures along the way, including a spectacular flying Mule crash and a magic duel with a Granny gone bad. Elgin has created a fantastic world infused with the folk traditions, social and familial hierarchies, and traditional dialect of the Ozarks. While parallels might be drawn between, for example, the break-up of the Confederacy of Continents on planet Ozark and the American Civil War, Elgin comments on aspects of Ozark history and tradition in a non didactic way. The trilogy, with its strong heroine and witty engagement of tradition, is a classic of Ozark literature.

Run Away with My Heart

By: Suzette Carluccio

There's no doubt that every mother would like to think that she has been the perfect mother, providing tender love and care and going to dance recitals, brownie meetings, and endless cheering events. But how should a mother feel when she must face life with a daughter who is a defiant, drug abusing, chronic teenage runaway? Run Away with My Heart shares the emotional journey that author Suzette Carluccio took to get her daughter the help she needed in order to turn her life around. This memoir presents the perspective of a mother whose daughter, Brie, has been a chronic runaway for more than three years. Carluccio only learned how deadly Brie's drug and alcohol abuse really was when Brie was picked up by the police and taken to a psychiatric ward. From there, through nature's healing power, Carluccio learned to let go of the strong bond she has with her daughter. After spending forty-nine days in the wilderness and ten months in a therapeutic boarding school, Brie finally began to take hold of her life and stopped running away from her inner demons. Run Away with My Heart is a story of rebuilding and renewal, demonstrating what happened when trust found its way back into Brie's family.

Native Tongue

By: Suzette Haden Elgin

Originally published in 1984, this dystopian trilogy—"a pioneering feminist experiment"—is a testament to the power of language and women's collective action (Literary Hub). In 2205, the 19th Amendment has long been repealed and women are only valued for their utility. The Earth's economy depends on an insular group of linguists who "breed" women to be perfect interstellar translators until they are sent to the Barren House to await death. But instead, these women are slowly creating a language of their own to make resistance possible. Ignorant to this brewing revolution, Nazareth, a brilliant linguist, and Michaela, a servant, both seek emancipation in their own ways. But their personal rebellions risk exposing the secret language, and threaten the possibility of freedom for all. “This angry feminist text is also an exemplary experiment in speculative fiction, deftly and implacably pursuing both a scientific hypothesis and an ideological hypothesis through all their social, moral, and emotional implications.” —Ursula K. Le Guin "A welcome reminder of the feminist legacies of science fiction. . . . Explores the power of speech, agency, and subversion in a work that is as gripping, troubling, and meaningful today as it has ever been." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
