"Sometimes we have to explain to people what we're doing but often they just think, 'Okay these guys are nuts,'" says New York photographer Len Jenshel.</span></div> <div><span style="font-size:14.0pt;">The idea for this book was born on a night in 2012. The couple was photographing cherry blossoms after dusk in Japan. Cook got a call that her father in the United States was dying. They watched pale white petals from the trees float away in the wind. "We looked at this amazing ritual of life and renewal, which happens every spring," says Cook. "And somehow, when we came back from that trip, we started thinking about the wisdom that we get from trees."</span></div> <div><span style="font-size:14.0pt;">The trees featured in their book offer shade and solace. Some give guidance, like a tree Native Americans once used as a reminder to leave one river and cross to a different waterway.Others are seen as a source of healing, like sacred trees in India. And a few have been silent witnesses to humanity's darkest times. The book features images taken in 11 countries as well as the United States.</span></div> </span></div></span></div> </div> </span></div> </span><span style="font-size:14pt;"> <strong style="font-size:14.0pt;line-height:107%;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;"> </strong></span></div> </div> </span></div> </div> </span></div> </td></tr></table></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="QuicklinkBG LeftColWidth" style="background-color:#FFFFFF;width:185px;" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" valign="top" width="185" rowspan="1" colspan="1"> </td> <td class="RightBack" style="background-color:#FFFFFF;" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="15" rowspan="1" colspan="1" /> <td class="RightColWidth RightBack" style="background-color:#FFFFFF;width:380px;" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" valign="top" width="380" rowspan="1" colspan="1"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="RightBack" style="background-color:#FFFFFF;" height="15" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="100%" rowspan="1" colspan="3" /> </tr> <tr> <td class="TemplateWidth RightBack" style="background-color:#FFFFFF;width:580px;" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="100%" rowspan="1" colspan="3"> <a name="LETTER.BLOCK2"></a><table class="BlockMargin" style="display:table;margin-bottom:6px;" border="0" width="100%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" id="content_LETTER.BLOCK2"><tr><td class="Title TitlePadding ArticleHeadline" style="background-color:#99CCFF;padding:2px 2px 2px 6px;background-repeat:repeat-x;color:#FFFFFF;text-decoration:none;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;background-image:none;" height="20" bgcolor="#99CCFF" width="100%" rowspan="1" colspan="1"> <div align="left"> <div align="center"><span class="MainText" style="color:#000000;font-size:16pt;font-family:Times New Roman,Times;"><strong>December Events</strong></span><br /></div> </div> </td></tr><tr><td style="color:#000000;" track="on" href="http://www.regulatorbookshop.com/event/saturday-storytime-courtney-4" shape="rect" linktype="1" rowspan="1" target="_blank" colspan="1"> <div><span> <div><span style="color:black;font-size:14.0pt;"><b>MARC MOSKOVITZ and R.

In <i>The Gifted Generation</i>, historian David Goldfield examines the generation immediately after WWII and argues how a strong and activist federal government made the early boomer generation a "gifted generation." This generation was led by presidents (Truman, Eisenhower, Johnson) who used legislation to encourage individual opportunities, changing how and where people lived, their access to higher education, protect the environment, and who spearheaded efforts to level the playing field for minorities, women and immigrants-which led the betterment of the nation as a whole. He brilliantly shows how the nation's leaders persevered to create the conditions for the most gifted generation in U.S. history and in the years since, instead of building on that early postwar success, we have gradually frittered it away. </span></div> <div><span style="font-size:14.0pt;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;"> </span></div> <div><span style="font-size:14.0pt;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;">David Goldfield is the Robert Lee Bailey Professor of History at the University of North Carolina, Charlotte.

A celebrated as publisher and poet, Jonathan Williams nurtured the nascent careers of hundreds of emerging or neglected poets, writers, artists, and photographers. Buckminster Fuller once called him "our Johnny Appleseed," while Hugh Kenner hailed Jargon as "the Custodian of Snowflakes" and Williams as "the truffle-hound of American poetry."

(Wiley Cash grew up in Gastonia in the 1980's). Ella May worked in terrible conditions in a textile mill, six days a week, 12 hours a day, for $9.00 a week. Her alcoholic husband had left her, and four of her nine children died from malnutrition or diseases she couldn't afford to treat. </span></div> <div style="color:black;font-weight:normal;font-family:Times-New-Roman;margin-top:0;font-style:normal;text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;line-height:107%;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;"> </span></div> <div style="color:black;font-weight:normal;font-family:Times-New-Roman;margin-top:0;font-style:normal;text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;line-height:107%;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;"> <img src="http://files.constantcontact.com/12021c86001/bd0cc1c5-447e-4b25-8f46-5188491e55ff.jpg" name="ACCOUNT.IMAGE.696" width="182" vspace="5" border="0" alt="Last Ballad 3.0" align="left" height="276" hspace="5"> Realizing that her life as a mill worker was killing her children, Ella May became a union organizer, and the protest songs she wrote became one of the union's most powerful recruitment tools. (Pete Seeger once called Ella May Wiggins the greatest songwriter in America). The 1929 Gaston County textile mill strikes were an infamous event in our country's labor history, and Wiley Cash brings the strikes and Ella May's world fully to life in his new novel. <strong>There's an amazing story here, and Wiley Cash simply blows it away. Almost 80 years on, Ella May Wiggins has found a storyteller worthy of her tale.</strong></img></span></div> <div style="color:black;font-weight:normal;font-family:Times-New-Roman;margin-top:0;font-style:normal;text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;line-height:107%;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;"> </span></div> <div style="color:black;font-weight:normal;font-family:Times-New-Roman;margin-top:0;font-style:normal;text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:14pt;line-height:107%;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;"><strong>If you don't want to rely solely on my word, here are some of the reviews the book has already received:</strong></span></div> <div style="color:black;font-weight:normal;font-family:Times-New-Roman;margin-top:0;font-style:normal;text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;line-height:107%;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;"> </span></div> <div style="color:black;font-weight:normal;font-family:Times-New-Roman;margin-top:0;font-style:normal;text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;line-height:107%;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;"> <div style="color:black;font-weight:normal;font-family:Times-New-Roman;margin-top:0;font-style:normal;text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;line-height:107%;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;">"Wiley Cash reveals the dignity and humanity of people asking for a fair shot in an unfair world. Fraught with the turmoil of social change, <em>The Last Ballad</em> moves inexorably toward a devastating moment of reckoning. A timely and topical portrait of a community in crisis." (Christina Baker Kline, author of <em>A Piece of the World</em> and <em>Orphan Train</em>)<br /> <br /> "Cash pulls no punches in this gorgeous, gut-wrenching novel, and that's entirely as it should be for a story of desperate people. In an era when American workers are besieged as they haven't been since the Great Depression, I can think of no more relevant novel for our times." (Ben Fountain, Author of <i>Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk</i>)<br /> <br /> "Inspired by the events of an actual textile-mill strike in 1929, Cash creates a vivid picture of one woman's desperation. . . . A heartbreaking and beautifully written look at the real people involved in the labor movement." (<em>Kirkus Reviews</em>)<br /> <br /> "It's impossible not to hear echoes of Steinbeck in Cash's sprawling, multi-voiced account of a battered, hopeless woman who rises up to become the symbol of a movement... Ella May Wiggins, it seems, sings not only of the forgotten past, but for our time too." (Chapter 16)<br /> <br /> "Beautifully and courageously told. Wiley Cash dares give voice to people lost in the margins of history, and he brings to life their inspiring fight for justice with graceful prose, honesty and intensity, and best of all, a wonderful bigness of heart." (Lydia Peelle, author of <i>The Midnight Cool</i>)<br /> <br /> "Resonates with pain, love, the struggle of life and the gross injustices of the world. I hated leaving Ella May's world, reveled in watching her bravery against unspeakable odds and her unending support of racial equality... A riveting story." (<em>Louisiana Book News</em>)<br /> <br /> "With his vibrant imagination, vigorous research, and his architectural skill in structuring this novel, Wiley Cash has lifted the events of the past into the present and immortalized a time that holds valuable lessons for our country today."

For decades, leaders in higher education have voiced their intention to expand college education to include disadvantaged groups. In Unequal Colleges in the Age of Disparity, Clotfelter presents quantitative comparisons across selective and less selective colleges from the 1970s to the present, in exploration of three themes: diversity, competition, and inequality. Clotfelter shows that exclusive colleges have benefited disproportionately from America's growing income inequality. Despite a revolution in civil rights, billions spent on financial aid, and the commitment of colleges to greater equality, stratification has grown starker. Top colleges cater largely to children of elites.</span></div> <div style="margin-bottom:0in;">"<span style="font-size:14pt;">A deeply researched, stimulating, and thoughtful analysis of the role of undergraduate education in America in sustaining the growing inequalities of our nation.

This event will be taking place during The Click! Photography Festival. </span></div> <div style="margin-bottom:0in;"><span style="font-size:14pt;">During its relatively brief existence (1933-1957), Black Mountain College was an experimental liberal arts college that placed the arts at the center of its curriculum with faculty from the American avant-garde such as Josef and Anni Albers, John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Buckminster Fuller, Charles Olson, and Robert Creeley. While Black Mountain College is best known for its contributions to the visual arts, literature, music, and dance,<i> Begin to See: The Photographers of Black Mountain College</i> shows how photography was also an important part of the curriculum. Josef Albers and Hazel Larsen Archer played important roles in this, including inviting many notable photographers to teach during the college's summer sessions.</span></div> <div style="margin-bottom:0in;"> </div> <div style="margin-bottom:0in;"><span style="font-size:14pt;">Julie J. Thomson is an independent scholar and curator who lives in Durham.

For decades, leaders in higher education have voiced their intention to expand college education to include disadvantaged groups. In Unequal Colleges in the Age of Disparity, Clotfelter presents quantitative comparisons across selective and less selective colleges from the 1970s to the present, in exploration of three themes: diversity, competition, and inequality. Clotfelter shows that exclusive colleges have benefited disproportionately from America's growing income inequality. Despite a revolution in civil rights, billions spent on financial aid, and the commitment of colleges to greater equality, stratification has grown starker. Top colleges cater largely to children of elites.</span></div> <div style="margin-bottom:0in;">"<span style="font-size:14pt;">A deeply researched, stimulating, and thoughtful analysis of the role of undergraduate education in America in sustaining the growing inequalities of our nation.

For decades the small, quiet town of Hamlet, North Carolina, thrived thanks to the railroad. But by the 1980s, it had become a post-industrial backwater, a magnet for businesses looking for cheap labor with little or almost no official <img src="http://files.constantcontact.com/12021c86001/94c87f76-5afe-4ce3-9c8a-bbd7e6cdb627.jpg" name="ACCOUNT.IMAGE.688" width="189" vspace="5" border="0" alt="Hamlet newspaper" align="left" height="232" hspace="5"> oversight. One of these businesses was Imperial Foods. This factory that had never been inspected caught fire and 25 workers-mostly single mothers, many of whom were black-perished behind locked doors. 80 years after the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire, industrial disasters were supposed to have been a thing of the past. After spending several years talking to the survivors of the fire, award-winning historian Bryant Simon has written a vivid, potent, and riveting social autopsy of this place and time that shows how cheap labor, cheap government, and cheap food came together in a way that was bound for tragedy.</img></div><div> </div><div><strong>Bryant Simon</strong> is a professor of history at Temple University.

Edited by Hollis Robbins and Henry Louis Gates, Jr., this collection comprises work from 49 writers arranged into sections of memoir, poetry, and essays on feminism, education, and the legacy of African American women writers. Many of these pieces engage with social movements like abolition, women's suffrage, temperance, and civil rights, but the thematic center is the intellect and personal ambition of African American women and includes well-known writers like Sojourner Truth, Hannah Crafts, and Harriet Jacobs, as well as lesser-known writers like Ella Sheppard, who offers a firsthand account of life in the world-famous Fisk Jubilee Singers.

Charles Frazier (Cold Mountain) calls Wang's debut, "a distinctive clear-eyed perspective on a fresh corner of the Civil War."</div><br /><div>Rooted in the history of the only secessionist town north of the Mason Dixon Line, The Hidden Light of Northern Fires tells a story of redemption amidst a war that tore families and the country apart. Mary Willis has always been an outcast, an abolitionist in a town of bounty hunters and anti-Union farmers. When escaped slave Joe Bell collapses in her father's barn, Mary is determined to help him cross to freedom in nearby Canada. But the wounded fugitive is haunted by his vengeful owner, who relentlessly hunts him up and down the country, and his sister, still trapped as a slave in the South. As the countryside is riled by the drumbeat of civil war, rebels and soldiers from both sides bring intrigue and violence of the brutal war to the town and the farm, and threaten to destroy all that Mary loves.</div><br /><div><strong>Daren Wang</strong> is the Executive Director of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution Decatur Book Festival, the largest independent book festival in the country. Before launching the festival, he had a twenty-year career in public radio, both national and local, with a particular focus on books and authors. Wang has written for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Paste magazine, and Five Points magazine, among others.

Paradigm-shifting, Teeth exposes for the first time the extent and meaning of our oral health crisis-and will spark an urgent conversation about why our teeth matter.</div> </div> <div><br /><div>Mary Otto is the oral health topic leader for the Association of Health Care Journalists.

How, for example, does the 47th St diamond district in midtown Manhattan - surrounded by skyscrapers and sophisticated financial institutions - continue to thrive. Stateless Commerce draws on rare insider interviews to explain why personal exchange succeeds, even as most global trade succumbs to the forces of modernization, and what it reveals about the limitations of the modern state in governing the economy.</div> <div>Barak D.

At a time when most "alternative comics" were loud, abrasive, and sarcastic, Jenny's autobiographical zine, Strange Growths, was considered groundbreaking for its quietude and focus on the quotidian. Her stories are poetic and allusive, delving into the heart of the human experience. The Complete Strange Growths, 1991-1997 gathers the first thirteen issues in their entirety, plus a selection of rare comics from anthologies, and a new interview with Jenny, conducted by Robert Clough.</div> <div>"Book of the year." - Comics Workshop</div> <div>"Book of the year." - The Cartoon Utopia</div> <br /></div> <strong> <div><span> <div>ANDRE VANN</div> </span></div> </strong> <div> <div><em>Saturday, September 9, 3:00PM -- Please note time</em> <br /></div> <div>The Regulator welcomes Andre Vann, author of <a style="color:blue;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline;font-style:italic;" track="on" shape="rect" href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0015vs_hdMVmR3AXUjHRJUxTuLZoDcajjzR-roKtQOpbo_Qz1SJPASbN2eY9GwiTey6IfKVphDD7WhsjUJJcjQkdWBapNC9xSOA5FDlpeLdJbaw_-1NkFuiUPXfx9uI7u9V5hvzy3Bh5B_7xof-uUIAno4uPveNwcxoCTLawWNOnoCrGkrtT5SJPWxihUPR4BDzgH40wbLNH9stx-4wpC6fzg==&c=ZL5s1D3gWB99_VgDKPfkNsgoSaHonG2uTA8gYzKTR_rWYCj7RyXoig==&ch=pbQFslV1fZOxSMALulF1fqvpB0tZ1gQ589ifdikaf9FFyOlL0z058Q==" linktype="1" alt="http://www.regulatorbookshop.com/book/9781467126465" target="_blank">Images of America: African Americans of Durham County</a> for a reading and book signing.</div> <div>Durham --once called the "Chicago of the South" and the "Capital of the Black Bourgeoisie -- has long been home to African Americans who have played a vital role in the growth and development of the region.

The capstone event, a two-week conference in Mexico City, was a watershed moment in transnational feminism that launched a new generation of activist networks that spanned continents, ideologies, and generations. How did organizers juggle geopolitical rivalries and material constraints amid global political and economic instability? <em>International Women's Year</em> looks at how these sometimes combative, unanticipated encounters at the conference generated the most enduring legacies, including women's networks across the global south, greater attention to the intersectionalities of marginalization, and the arrival of women's micro-credit on the development scene. <br /></div><div><strong>Jocelyn Olcott</strong> is associate professor of History and Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies at Duke University.

fascinating. Partanen is Finnish, but she moved to the U.S. in 2008, when she was in her early 30's. Her book is a thoughtful, judicious comparison of American and Nordic life and societies, and she makes a strong case that the Nordic approach allows their citizens to enjoy more individual freedom and independence than we have here in America. </span></div><br /></td></tr></table></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="QuicklinkBG LeftColWidth" style="background-color:#FFFFFF;width:185px;" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" valign="top" width="185" rowspan="1" colspan="1"> </td> <td class="RightBack" style="background-color:#FFFFFF;" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="15" rowspan="1" colspan="1" /> <td class="RightColWidth RightBack" style="background-color:#FFFFFF;width:380px;" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" valign="top" width="380" rowspan="1" colspan="1"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="RightBack" style="background-color:#FFFFFF;" height="15" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="100%" rowspan="1" colspan="3" /> </tr> <tr> <td class="TemplateWidth RightBack" style="background-color:#FFFFFF;width:580px;" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="100%" rowspan="1" colspan="3"> <a name="LETTER.BLOCK2"></a><table class="BlockMargin" style="display:table;margin-bottom:6px;" border="0" width="100%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" id="content_LETTER.BLOCK2"><tr><td class="Title TitlePadding ArticleHeadline" style="background-color:#99CCFF;padding:2px 2px 2px 6px;background-repeat:repeat-x;color:#FFFFFF;text-decoration:none;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;background-image:none;" height="20" bgcolor="#99CCFF" width="100%" rowspan="1" colspan="1"> <div align="left"> <div align="center"><span class="MainText" style="color:#000000;font-size:16pt;font-family:Times New Roman,Times;"><strong>Upcoming Events</strong></span> <br /></div> </div> </td></tr><tr><td style="color:#000000;" track="on" shape="rect" href="http://www.regulatorbookshop.com/event/saturday-storytime-courtney-4" linktype="1" rowspan="1" target="_blank" colspan="1"> <div> <div align="center"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Times New Roman,Times,serif;">You can see our complete events calendar </span><a style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Times New Roman,Times,serif;" track="on" shape="rect" href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=00157cdoLzg2dBdEDBk9a07PC1cu4EtA7_dcJNoINUPsjqen9RIeU1DXYUS8a5sSz9CgsIa5ZQNSrHRRwyVZJ_UyCtedbR8VFekKMbGjwBcp6bxn56TwuqQNU-eH6LFIoOC0JSA1SoESjsrbqnwI45Gu-ql9qaOLMDw334fPvWQFZlrf7feZ83DaHQPqxP_TO3w&c=2O_WkUrNQtUoSbyOcMKhjN3LYRPY4Hm9LF5-zpSOPg5IrT8Bc7-IJQ==&ch=cq9xKbgDheeMPhWJln2p7vbRd8pBv1_xAsZG7KHMGfXmPYldvnwZaQ==" linktype="1" alt="http://www.regulatorbookshop.com/event" target="_blank">on our website</a></div> <div align="left"> <div> <div> <div> <div style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Times New Roman,Times,serif;"><strong>PRESCHOOL STORY TIME IS CANCELLED FOR TODAY</strong> <br /><em>Wednesday, August 9</em></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;font-family:Times New Roman,Times,serif;">SORRY!

High summer calls for fresh corn eaten on the cob or shaved into salads, sautés, and soups. When fall and winter come, it's time to make cornmeal biscuits, muffins, cobblers, and hotcakes, along with silky spoonbread and sausage-studded cornbread stuffing. Flanagan's Corn also surveys corn's culinary history--its place in Native American culture, its traditional role on the southerner's table, and the exciting new ways it is enjoyed in southern kitchens today; dishes range from Southern classic, contemporary, to globally influenced. Without Corn--or Zea Mays-- Flanagan writes, the South would cease to taste like the South.<br /><br /></img></span></div> <div><span>Nancie McDermott (Fruit) is a North Carolina native, cooking teacher, and author of thirteen cookbooks, including her latest, Southern Soups and Stews: From Burgoo and Gumbo to Etouffee and Fricassee. </span></div> <div><span>Tema Flanagan (Corn) is a farmer at The Farm at Windy Hill, a sustainable production and teaching farm in Alabama.

The <img src="http://files.constantcontact.com/12021c86001/7b7f0aea-9310-474d-ad52-dac8ce99e16e.jpg" name="ACCOUNT.IMAGE.661" width="167" vspace="5" border="0" alt="Democracy in Chains" align="right" height="251" hspace="5"> Koch brothers may be bankrolling this effort, but it was Buchanan who supplied the ideas and strategies (like the spreading of misinformation, radically gerrymandering state legislative districts, etc.) that has made their money effective. Buchanan began his work at the University of Virginia in 1956, then moved to George Mason University in 1983. He died in 2013.<br /><br /></img></span></div> <div><span>In recent interviews, Nancy MacLean summed up Buchanan's work by saying:<br /><br /></span></div> <div><span>"In a nutshell, he studied the workings of the political process to figure out what was needed to deny ordinary people -- white and Black -- the ability to make claims on government at the expense of private property rights and the wishes of capitalists. And then he identified how to rejigger that political process not only to reverse the gains but also to prevent the system from ever reverting back. He sought, in his words, to "enchain Leviathan," which is why I titled the book Democracy in Chains."<br /><br /><div><span>"Buchanan gave the advice to others on the right and to his corporate funders and donors that for capitalism of a kind they wanted to thrive, democracy must be enchained. Democracy must be, in effect, shackled, to prevent the majority will from being expressed, because it would take too much from people of great wealth, and that would be a problem for them."<br /><br /></span></div><div><span>And Sam Tanenhaus, reviewing <em>Democracy in Chains</em> in the July/August issue of <em>The Atlantic</em>, says:<br />"What we think of as dysfunction is the result of years of strategic effort....To see all this as simple obstructionism, perversity for its own sake, is a mistake. A cause lies behind it: upholding the sanctity of an ideology against the sins of the majority."<br /><br /></span></div><div><span>Come hear Nancy MacLean Wednesday night at 7:00.

The capitalist radical right has been working not simply to change who rules, but to fundamentally alter the rules of democratic governance. But billionaires did not launch this movement; a white intellectual in the embattled Jim Crow South did. Democracy in Chains names its true architect-the Nobel Prize-winning political economist James McGill Buchanan-and dissects the operation he and his colleagues designed over six decades to alter every branch of government to disempower the majority.</span></div> <div><span> </span></div> <div><span>In a brilliant and engrossing narrative, Nancy MacLean shows how Buchanan forged his ideas about government in a last gasp attempt to preserve the white elite's power in the wake of Brown v. Board of Education and taught others how to divide America into "makers" and "takers." Based on ten years of unique research, Democracy in Chains tells a chilling story of right-wing academics and big money run amok.

Lindsey's debut collection is the product of this reckoning. In 15 stories, the effects of war manifest on an intimate, everyday level-in obsessive behavior to be clean, in drug-fueled binges in Nashville honky-tonk bars, in predilections for reckless driving or compulsive sitcom watching.<br /><br /></span></div><div><em>We Come to Our Senses</em><span> highlights the struggles to reconcile the traditional war narrative with the senselessness of combat and the inability to readjust to life at home. The result is virtuosic in style and commanding in message.<br /><br /> </span></div><div><span>"This is almost a novel in stories, thematically linked like Phil Klay's Redeployment, but more particular in its examination of the new American veteran." --New York Times Book Review<br /><br /></span></div><div><span><strong>Odie Lindsey</strong>'s</span><span> stories have appeared in Best American Short Stories, the Iowa Review, Columbia, and the anthology Forty Stories, among others.

/></em></div> <div><span>Author John Trump (no relation!) comes to The Regulator for a reading and book signing of his new book, <em><strong>Still & Barrel: Craft Spirits in the Old North State.</strong></em> <strong>Local Distillers will provide samples of their craft at the event: Chapel Hill's TOPO Organic Distillery; Pittsboro's Fair Game Beverage Company; and our hometown Durham Distillery!</strong><br /><br /></span></div> <div><span>Although legal spirits in the Tar Heel state only go back about ten years, making liquor in North Carolina is not new. Wilkes County, which was once dubbed the "Moonshine Capital of the World," was the leading producer of illegal liquor for decades. Today descendants of famous moonshiners are now respectable craft distillers carrying on the family tradition. In <em>Still & Barrel</em>, Trump traces the history of manufacturing moonshine whiskey, gin, vodka, and rum in the state all the way to today's boom from the artisan movement. The book also serves as a guide so you can visit the almost 50 distilleries that are now in business. The information about the distillers and their products is surrounded by history and compelling stories about people and their passion.</span></div> <div><strong>John Daniel Trump</strong><span> is a writer, journalist, editor and Air Force veteran with a love for good food, good beer, wine, bourbon and coffee. Married and the father of twin boys, Trump lives in a small town in the Triad area of North Carolina. </span></div> <div> </div> <div><strong>PRESCHOOL STORY TIME </strong></div> <div><em>Wednesday, May 17, 10:15AM</em></div> <div><span>Join us for Preschool Storytime at The Regulator with Amy Godfrey.

Lenox's debut collection finds resonance within the natural world for a life undergoing a tectonic shift. Her poems face the void without flinching, and without losing hope.</span></div> <div><span> </span></div> <div><span>"[The Brightest Rock] is full of wonders-a heart made of soapstone, a bungee cord freefall, hope itself outfitted with talons. What a rare and lovely thing to dive deeper into the mysterious essence of a woman's being in poem after poem ...The Brightest Rock is a splendor itself, deserving front and center standing on anyone's bookshelf." - Robert Vivian, author of Mystery My Country</span></div> <div><span> </span></div> <div><strong>Kelly Lenox</strong><span> is inspired by the workings and mystery of the natural world. She is the editor-in-chief of the Environmental Factor, for the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, part of National Institutes of Health.

But the moment convicted murderer Ricky Langley's face flashes on the screen as she reviews old tapes and she hears him speak of his crimes, she is overcome with the feeling of wanting him to die. Something in his story is unsettlingly, yet uncannily familiar. By examining the details of Ricky's case, she is forced to face her own story, to unearth long-buried family secrets, and reckon with a past that colors her view of Ricky's crime. This groundbreaking, heart-stopping work shows how the law is more personal than we would like to believe -- and the truth more complicated, and powerful, than we could ever imagine.</span></div> <div><strong>Alexandria Marzan-Lesnevich</strong><span> is a 2014 National Endowment for the Arts fellow, an award given for her work on <em>The Fact of a Body.</em> Her essays appear in the New York Times, Oxford American, and the anthology Waveform: Twenty-first Century Essays by Women. She lives in Boston, where she teaches at Grub Street and in the graduate public policy program at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government. </span></div> <div><span> </span></div> <div><strong>MARIA ROUPHAIL AND TONY REEVY</strong></div> <div><em>Tuesday, May 23, 7:00PM</em></div> <div><span>Join Tony Reevy with poet Maria Rouphail for a reading and book release party at The Regulator Bookshop in celebration of the publication of Reevy's newest collection of poems, <em><strong>Socorro.</strong></em></span></div> <div><span> </span></div> <div><span>In Socorro, Reevy explores childhood on the edge of the desert. Socorro, New Mexico is a town haunted by its past and by legend, where the sidewalks are still marked "WPA 1935" and the past--and even the supernatural--never seem far away. <strong>Tony Reevy</strong> is Senior Associate Director of the Institute for the Environment at UNC-Chapel Hill. His previous publications include poetry, nonfiction and short fiction. Reevy spent much of his childhood in Socorro, New Mexico and spent his teen years in Durham, North Carolina. He went to Northern High School, graduated from NC State and Carolina and remembers when The Regulator opened 1976; he lived within walking distance of the store. Reevy and his family live in Durham.</span></div> <div><span> </span></div> <div><span><strong>Maria Rouphai</strong>l</span><span> is the author of Apertures, a 2012 finalist in Finishing Line Press's "New Women's Voices" competition.

But instead of confining herself to a hospital bed for what could be her last stay, Norma-newly widowed after nearly seven decades of marriage-rose to her full height of five feet and told her doctor, "I'm ninety years old. I'm hitting the road." </span></div> <div><span>Norma took off on an unforgettable cross-country journey with three professional nomads-her retired son Tim, his wife Ramie, and their Standard Poodle Ringo-in a thirty-six-foot RV. With each passing mile (and one educational visit to a cannabis dispensary), Miss Norma's health improves and conversations that had once been taboo begin to unfold. Driving Miss Norma is the infectiously joyful and charming chronicle of their life on the road-a transformative journey where it is never too late to begin an adventure, inspire hope, or become a trailblazer.<br /><br /></span></div> <div><strong>Tim Bauerschmidt and Ramie Liddle</strong><span> are professional nomads who retired by age 50 to travel full-time in an Airstream travel trailer with Ringo, their Standard Poodle.

Starting with an early 19th-century American legal world of "buyer beware," this unprecedented account describes the slow, piecemeal construction of modern regulatory institutions to protect consumers and investors, from the Gilded Age through the New Deal and the Great Society. It concludes with the more recent era of deregulation, which has brought with it a spate of costly frauds, including the savings and loan crisis, corporate accounting scandals, and the recent mortgage-marketing debacle. By tracing how Americans have struggled to foster a vibrant economy without enabling a corrosive level of fraud, this book reminds us that American capitalism rests on an uneasy foundation of social trust.</span></div> <div><span>"Balleisen's lucid, engagingly written mix of institutional and legal history, behavioral economics, and entertaining anecdotes illuminates this land of bilk and money."</span><span>--</span><span>Publishers Weekly</span></div> <span>Edward J.

How has the concept changed since 9/11? Kumarini Silva argues that "brown" is no longer conceived of solely as a cultural, ethnic, or political identity; it has also become a concept and strategy of identification-one rooted in xenophobic, imperialistic, and racist ideologies to target those who do not neatly fit or subscribe to ideas of nationhood. Interweaving personal narratives, ethnographic research, Silva maps junctures where the ideological, political, and mediated terrain intersect, resulting in an appetite for all things "brown" (especially South Asian brown) by U.S. consumers, while political and nationalist discourses and legal structures conspire to control brown bodies and argues that the representation mediates and manages the anxieties that come from contemporary global realities, in which brown spaces, like India, Pakistan, and the Middle East pose key economic, security, and political challenges to the United States. While racism is hardly new, what makes this iteration of brown new is that anyone or any group, at any time, can be branded as deviant, as a threat.</span></div><div><span> </span></div><div><span>Kumarini Silva</span><span> is assistant professor of communication at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.

Starting with an early 19th-century American legal world of "buyer beware," this unprecedented account describes the slow, piecemeal construction of modern regulatory institutions to protect consumers and investors, from the Gilded Age through the New Deal and the Great Society. It concludes with the more recent era of deregulation, which has brought with it a spate of costly frauds, including the savings and loan crisis, corporate accounting scandals, and the recent mortgage-marketing debacle. By tracing how Americans have struggled to foster a vibrant economy without enabling a corrosive level of fraud, this book reminds us that American capitalism rests on an uneasy foundation of social trust.</span></div><div><span>"Balleisen's lucid, engagingly written mix of institutional and legal history, behavioral economics, and entertaining anecdotes illuminates this land of bilk and money."</span><span>--</span><span>Publishers Weekly</span></div><span>Edward J. Balleisen</span><span> is associate professor of history and public policy and vice provost for Interdisciplinary Studies at Duke University.

Wednesday night you will have a chance to catch a remarkable new writer at the very beginning of her career. And you don't have to just take my word on this. Here are some of the early reviews of <em>No One is Coming to Save Us</em>: </img></span></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><span> <br /><br /></span></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><em>"Watts is so captivating a writer ... (with) a prose style that renders the common language of casual speech into natural poetry, blending intimate conversation with the rhythms of gossip, town legend, even song lyrics ... What Watts has done here is more captivating than another retread about the persistence of a crook's dream. She's created an indelible story about the substance of a woman's life."</em></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><span>--Ron Charles, The Washington Post</span></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><span> </span></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><em>"Watts writes about ordinary people leading ordinary lives with an extraordinary level of empathy and attention."</em></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><span>--Jade Chang, The New York Times Book Review</span></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><span> </span></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><em>"In the best possible way, this is the kind of book that makes a reader yearn for her next one."</em></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><span>--Sarah Begley, Time</span></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><span> </span></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><em>"It should not go unsaid that the central characters are African-American, a deliberate choice in a narrative that doesn't so much adapt as wink at a classic that kept those kinds of characters on the margins. For the most part, they are still on the margins. But No One Is Coming to Save Us pivots the default lens to spotlight their experience - the poverty surrounding them, the pain they harbor and the peace in letting that pain go. In the hands of a less competent author, this could have devolved into mere voyeurism into the traumas and triumphs of black people. Instead, Watts, with her knowing touch and full-bodied prose, delivers a resonant meditation on life and the comfort both in dreaming and in moving forward."</em></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><span>--Jaleesa M. Jones, USA Today</span></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><span> </span></div> <div style="font-size:14pt;"><em>"Watts powerfully depicts the struggles many Americans face trying to overcome life's inevitable disappointments.

He is one of those writers that other writers study and marvel at (see the comments on the book's dust jacket).

Reflecting on this, Rebecca Lee wrote in the <em>New York Times</em>: </img></div> <strong> <div><span> </span></div> </strong> <div>"In the humble and great problems strewn through Gautreaux's excellent stories, in his primal forests and his crumbling mansions, in his beautiful and intelligent and ambitious sentences, I find (James) Dickey himself after all these years.
