An intriguing novel for young adults about learning to confront their problems "Twisted Creek? Are you sure?" a gas station attendant asks the bewildered Maggie Cruz, when she stops in a remote gas station alongside a desolate road. The old man's questions stay with Maggie as she drives up into the mountains toward Twisted Creek, but Maggie is on a mission. She is hoping to escape the lonely house her mother keeps in Los Angeles, and she hopes to reconnect with the memories of her late father through her beloved grandfather, a resident of Twisted Creek. But from the minute Maggie arrives, Twisted Creek is a major adjustment. After navigating the neglected road into town, Maggie discovers a place where there are very few cars, no cell phone reception, no TV, and none of the modern comforts of home. When Maggie enrolls at the local school, she discovers that there, too, things are... different from home. With a class of six people, no soft drinks, and the only weekend activities involving ice cream and watching The Wizard of Oz multiple times, Maggie begins to wonder what happened to the town. But quiet is exactly what she wants, isn't it? Maggie is inadvertently drawn into a battle over the progress that she detests back home and the pitfalls of life in an isolated town. Soon, Maggie begins to question her own need to escape and the problems she has left in Los Angeles.

This eloquent collection of essays and speeches by Richard H. Brodhead addresses issues of importance to institutes of higher learning and to those who participate in them. As the popular Dean of Yale College from 1993 to 2004, Brodhead was involved in every aspect of undergraduate education―curriculum, faculty appointments, and student life―and occupied a unique position from which to ponder the ways that college can prepare young people to lead fulfilling lives. One of Dean Brodhead’s responsibilities was to welcome new students to Yale at the annual Freshman Assembly, and this book presents his engaging remarks as he simultaneously reassured and challenged them. The later sections of the book range through various concerns of the contemporary university, from free speech and diversity issues to sexual harassment policy, residential education, the assessment of academic programs, and the complex and competing goals of college admissions.At once reflective, witty, and wise, this book speaks to students and educators alike, to all who hope to become―or shape others to become―thoughtful and constructive members of society.

Sault Ste. Marie's Jewish community in the 1930s, where Torgov grew up, is evoked in this Canadian memoir. Containing many mirthful moments, the book is deeply moving as well. Holding center stage is the author's profane, choleric, intolerant father. There is little about the boy's mother, who died when he was only 10, or the stepmother whom Torgov Sr. wed and then quickly divorced. Most of the fun as well as the sadness arises from duels between father and son and the latter's childhood escapades, such as conniving with a sympathetic maid to feast on forbidden foods. Torgov also brings to life members of the insular town's Jewish and Christian communities in his endearing anecdotes. Copyright 1986 Reed Business Information, Inc.
