Gone the Hard Road written by Pulitzer-finalist Lee Martin

"A haunting and hypnotic memoir by one of our finest storytellers."

Pulitzer Prize finalist Lee Martin has done it again. Building from his acclaimed first memoir, From Our House, which recounts the farming accident that cost his father both his hands, Gone the Hard Road is the story of Beulah Martin’s endurance and sacrifice as a mother, and the gift of imagination she offered her son.

A poignant, honest, and moving read, Gone the Hard Road will stay with anyone who has ever struggled to find their place in the world.

The Perfect Vagina: Cosmetic Surgery in the Twenty-First Century by Lindy McDougall

The Perfect Vagina

In the West, a specific ideal for female genitalia has emerged: one of absence, a “clean slit,” attained through the removal of pubic hair and, increasingly, through female genital cosmetic surgery known as FGCS.

The Perfect Vagina: Cosmetic Surgery in the Twenty-First Century highlights the complexities involved with FGCS, its role in Western beauty culture, and the creation and control of body image in countries where self-care is valorized and medicine is increasingly harnessed for enhancement as well as health.
