Acquainted with the Night: Excursions Through the World After Dark (Paperback)

By Christopher Dewdney

$14.95
This wondrous book spurred an entire body of work for me. It is a beautifully written mix of history, mythology, fiction and science. Laid out in 12 chapters which correspond to the twelve hours of the night, Dewdney explores global cultural nighttime customs, bedtime stories, the physics behind sunsets, and the mechanics of sleeping and dreaming. A reviving book of essays about how we spend those hours in darness. Highly recommended!

Rachel Kushner Telex From Cuba is a novel set around the American community of Cuba during the years leading up to Castro’s revolution. Centered around Oriente Province - where labor was cheap and Americans lead a rich life - and Havana, with its brewing political underground, we follow Everly Lederer and K. C. Stites as they come of age in this unstable Cuba, as well as the enigmatic cabaret dancer Rachel K., who has powerful connections.
