Lilly Dancyger always thought of her closest friendships as great loves, complex and profound as any romance. When her beloved cousin was murdered just as both girls were entering adulthood, Dancyger’s devotion to the women in her life took on a new urgency—a desire to hold her friends close while she still could. In First Love, this urgency runs through a striking exploration of the bonds between women, from the intensity of adolescent best friendship and fluid sexuality to mothering and chosen family.

Story
Part lyric essay, part prose poetry, Where Things Touch grapples with the manifold meanings and possibilities of beauty. Drawing on her experiences as a physician-in-training, Orang considers clinical encounters and how they relate to the concept and very idea of beauty. Such considerations lead her to questions about intimacy, queerness, home, memory, love, and other aspects of human existence. Throughout, beauty is ultimately imagined as something inextricably tied to care: the care of lovers, of patients, of art and literature, and the various non-human worlds that surround us.

Story
On her first book tour at the age of 26, Lee Maracle was asked a question from the audience, one she couldn't possibly answer at that moment. But she has been thinking about it ever since. As time has passed, she has been asked countless similar questions, all of them too big to answer, but not too large to contemplate. These questions, which touch upon subjects such as citizenship, segregation, labor, law, prejudice and reconciliation, to name a few, are the heart of My Conversations with Canadians.

Story
Il sangue matto è la paura di impazzire, di sragionare all’improvviso in casa, al lavoro, per strada, nel bel mezzo di certe giornate nere che si fatica persino a raccontare a se stesse. È il corpo che si macchia di rosso, è la difficoltà a vivere normalmente almeno sette giorni al mese. È il lutto, il fallimento e il disgusto per non riuscire ad essere madri come la natura femminile vorrebbe. Eppure le donne non si arrendono, e provano a raccontarlo e a raccontarsi, cercano con ostinazione il mesSaggio nascosto dentro la sofferenza.

Story
Eine scharfsinnige und humorvolle Analyse unserer Entschuldigungskultur von Bestseller-Autorin Tara-Louise Wittwer alias @ wastarasagt. Wir entschuldigen uns ständig: »Sorry, dass ich störe «, »sorry, ich muss mal durch«, aber ist das wirklich notwendig? »sorry, aber...« Bestseller-Autorin Tara-Louise Wittwer (Drama Queen) nervt es, dass ihr eine schnelle Entschuldigung oft so viel leichter über die Lippen geht als für sich einzustehen. Und dass sie sich so oft schuldig fühlt, obwohl es keinen Grund dazu gibt.

Story
Linguistik-Professor Simon Meier-Vieracker vermittelt uns die faszinierende Vielfalt der deutschen Sprache. Wir sprechen, also sind wir. In verschiedenen Gegenden Deutschlands wird unterschiedlich gesprochen. Die lokalen Dialekte haben nicht nur Kultstatus, sondern geben uns auch Auskunft über die Herkunft von Sprechenden. Während das Ende eines Brotstücks beispielsweise in Ostdeutschland oft als »Kanten« bezeichnet wird, sagt man in Hamburg eher »Knust« und im Schwabenland heißt es oft »Riebele«.
