Book Description
Here in America, we know that the drug war is tearing Mexico apart, but it feels distant, removed from our day-to-day lives. What is it really like to live on the front lines? Featuring original work from award-winning Mexican writers, "Blood Calls to Blood" presents a gripping yet intimate account of a crisis that has brutally claimed at least 50,000 people since December 2006. With stunning first-person testimony and insightful commentary, this book collects writing from ZYZZYVAthe acclaimed San Francisco literary journal dedicated since 1985 to publishing the best work from West Coast writers, poets, translators, and artists. Among the nonfiction and fiction in this volume, you will find reportage from Diego Enrique Osorno, who tries to puzzle together what exactly happened when the Zetas and the Gulf Cartel clashed in the border town of Ciudad Mier, and from Marcela Turati, who visits a morgue in northeastern Mexico and talks to the desperate people who have long been searching for their missing loved ones.There are short stories from the late, internationally lauded fiction writer Daniel Sada (about three heads discovered in an ice chest during a drug cartel's party) and from emerging writer Mauro Gallardo (on a night of joyriding with a young narco). An introductory essay by John Gibler, author of "To Die in Mexico: Dispatches from Inside the Drug War," provides a primer on what's truly at stake in Mexico's drug war, and a lyrical meditation from novelist and columnist Cristina Rivera Garza explores the reasons for continuing to write amid the mayhem. "Blood Calls to Blood" is an important record of a catastrophe that continues to unfold and greatly affects not just all of Mexico, but all of the Americas.

Book Description
A married couple are caught up in a plot to overthrow Henry VIII in this romantic adventure classic by the author of King Solomon’s Mines. Cicely Foterell has loved her new husband, Sir Christopher Harflete, since childhood. But they live in an England in turmoil. It’s 1536, and King Henry VIII has rebelled against Pope Clement VII and the Catholic Church. Consequently, many of the clergy are rebelling against the king in a revolt coined the Pilgrimage of Grace. To raise funds to fight against Henry, Spanish abbot Clement Maldon plots to kill Cicely’s father and steal the family’s jewels, along with Blossholme Abbey. Cicely is sent to a nunnery and later tried as a witch. Christopher is knocked out and shipped overseas. As they try to reunite, many more dangers arise, and it will take more than their undying love to ensure they ever find each other . . . Praise for The Lady of Blossholme “What a detailed, densely written, fast-moving and action-packed story it is. . . ! The Lady of Blossholme is well worth a reader’s time. With memorable characters, a unique setting, a different kind of Haggardian villain, several interesting Haggardian sidekicks, and a healthy dose of red-blooded action, the novel is a real pleaser.” —Fantasy Literature
