Book Description
Paper Cuts is for poetry addicts, people new to poetry, and for anyone who loves the aesthetic beauty of the written word. In short, this collection is for everyone, connected as we all are as human beings, who feel and live deeply, where each page, each line, each word cuts into the heart, but not as to leave a wound unhealed. Like skin exposed to the elements whose layers become more beautiful, textured, and interesting the more vulnerable one allows, so too does poetry. It isn't just inked or typed onto paper, but it is cut from the blood of one's soul. Through an examination of all life's moments of vulnerability, people can and do endure: From pain can come love; from boredom can come romance; from darkness can come light; and from dullness can come the vivid color of sensuality. This collection, then, provides insight into what a paper cut means for our hearts and souls and, ultimately, how they are healed. It is a realization that the deepest part of human existence is just brimming right below the surface, and if we let it, we can live and feel fully.They say that when the heart physically breaks there is a flow of both blood and water. These eight diverse poets explore the attrition, fatigue, and water and blood that come from myriad paper cuts, and teach us: We bleed but do not die.

Book Description
When the Belgian cartoonist Peyo created a village of cute little woodland creatures for his heroes Johan and Peewit to discover, he couldn't have known that they would wildly outgrow those humble origins to become a worldwide phenomenon all on their own. More than 50 years later, The Smurfs continue to delight us all with their silliness, bravery, heroism, and heart, and now we finally have a definitive collection of Peyo's original comics to see where it all began. Newly remastered and presented in original publication order, along with a Smurfy collection of historical notes and photographs, this volume introduces us to Smurfette and features a Johan and Peewit story never before seen in the U.S.

Book Description
A deeply polarized and ungovernable United States of America has separated into two nations—the God Fearing States (GFS) and the United Progressive Regions (UPR). Judith Braverman, a teenager living in an Orthodox Jewish community in the GFS, is not only a talented artist accomplished in the ancient craft of papercutting, she also has the gift of seeing into peoples’ souls—and can tell instantly if someone is good or evil. Jeffrey Schwartz has no love for religion or conformity and yearns to escape to the freedom of the UPR. When he’s accepted into an experimental pen pal program and paired with Dani Fine, an openly queer girl in the UPR, he hopes that he can finally find a way out. As danger mounts and their alarm grows, Judith embeds a secret code in her papercuts so that she and Jeffrey can tell Dani what’s happening to Jews in the GFS without raising suspicions from the government. When the three arrange a quick, clandestine meeting, Jeffrey is finally faced with the choice to flee or to stay and resist. And Judith is reeling from a pull toward Dani that is unlike anything she has ever felt before. Content note: the book contains one brief memory of sexual assault of a male teen by another male teen. Book 1 of The Split Series.
