Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - For his swan-song, protagonist and narrator Professor Theodore Allenby Marsters takes on the hot button topic of bias - prejudice and unfairness in an array of forms, some overlooked in the mainstream. In particular, Marsters finds himself facing mandatory retirement. As a result, he crafts the course to emphasize elder bias, drawing examples from personal experience, while in counterpoint demonstrating his own societal value by befriending elders and establishing a program to buoy the spirits of children who have contracted leukemia. The wildcard is Anacostia Monroe, a young woman and older sister of one of Marsters's students. Unbeknownst to him, she has orchestrated their meeting, mutual fascination, and subsequent physical entanglement in support of her own learning opportunity and as preparation for her future married (not to him) life. Her plans are upstaged when the professor exceeds the stuffy impression he typically reflects, and she realizes he has graduated from test subject to love interest. These events lead to her older brother beating him down, decrying their age difference. She nurses him back to health, but despite their increasing closeness ultimately decides she must leave him in favor of her fiancé. After she departs, he wonders: was she real or a figment of a lonely old man's imagination This question inhabits the denouement, which itself establishes the foundation for the remainder of his life. One hundred and two thousand words.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Medina Brown is the daughter of an American man and a Turkish woman. Born in her namesake city, she grows up in the fictional town of Joseph, Illinois, an hour east of St. Louis, two west of Indianapolis. She meets Kevin Foster in kindergarten. Immediately best friends, they grow up together. He lives two blocks down. They're part of each other's families. He becomes her biographer.Kevin records: She was extraordinary, superior, and I was. an adjunct, a plus one No, that's not fair. She was driving and I was her passenger. That's better. She did love me too. How would she describe her feelings, describe me, if she were writing this Medina is energetic, attractive, participatory, electable. Where she looks, others gaze; where she goes, they charge; where she works, they labor. Her actions first help others, first share resources, first raise the less fortunate to her level. She makes many friends, some enemies. Her popularity is vast, not universal.Twenty-first century politics shape their lives - bullies, violence, internet accusers, and homophobic trolls, who insist, despite contrary evidence, Kevin is gay.The book, emblematic of these messy and disheartening times, explores gender dynamics and hate, while building to multiple conclusions: the consummation of Medina's and Kevin's relationship; the pinnacle of her fame and popularity; the long-brewing clash with increasingly-racist (and sexist) detractors; and the culmination of her political campaign.By the end, you'll find yourself hoping your search engine can pull Joseph out of the Southern Illinois landscape. Maybe a drive. Maybe on August 10th. Yeah, Roosevelt Square on Medina Brown Day. I'm there!This is a full-blooded, old-school novel, meaty and memorable, intensifying as the account progresses toward its conclusion. Long after you've closed the cover, you'll find yourself wondering about the culture you live in.…
