Stone Cold Heart: A Novel (A Cat Kinsella Novel, 2)
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 22.37 $From the beloved and internationally bestselling author of Sweet Little Lies comes the second novel featuring DC Cat Kinsella—an investigator “on par with Susie Steiner’s and Tana French’s female detectives” (Kirkus, starred review).After a brief stint in the Mayor’s Office, Detective Constable Cat Kinsella is back at the London Metropolitan Police, wisecracking with her partner Luigi Parnell and trying to avoid the wrath of the boss, DI Kate Steele. But for Cat and Parnell, it’s serious business when a young Australian woman turns up dead after a party thrown by her new boss. The initial investigation of Naomi Lockhart's murder points to Joseph Madden, the owner of a coffee shop around the corner from police headquarters. Madden insists he’s innocent, that he was home with his wife Rachel at the time of the murder. When police question her, Rachel contradicts his alibi, swearing that she was home alone. While the team builds its case against Joseph, Cat is tasked with getting to the heart of the Maddens’ marriage. Cat knows that one of them is lying—but the question of which one, and why, is far more complicated than she could have expected. As she tries to balance the demands of the investigation with a budding romance and unresolved family drama, Cat has to decide how far she’ll go to keep her own past mistakes buried. With her trademark wit and brilliant plotting, Caz Frear ratchets up the tension and keeps you guessing as she explores the things we keep from our loved ones—and the secrets we’d kill to keep safe in the dark.

Activist Poetics by John Kinsella: Anarchy in the Avon Valley
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 26.64 $John Kinsella is known internationally as the acclaimed author of more than thirty books of poetry and prose, but in tandem with - and often directly through - his creative and critical work, Kinsella is also a prominent activist. In this important collection of essays the vegan anarchist pacifist poet claims that poetry can act as a vital form of resistance to a variety of social and ethical ills, in particular ecological damage and abuse. Kinsella builds on his earlier notion of 'linguistic disobedience' evolving out of civil disobedience, and critiques the figurative qualities of his poems in a context of resistance. The book includes explorations of anarchism, veganism, pacifism, and ecological poetics. For Kinsella all poetry is political and can be a call to action.

Sweet Little Lies: A Novel (A Cat Kinsella Novel, 1)
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 44.92 $"A dark and smart page-turner." -The New York TimesIn this gripping debut procedural, a young London policewoman must probe dark secrets buried deep in her own family’s past to solve a murder and a long-ago disappearance.Your father is a liar. But is he a killer? Even liars tell the truth . . . sometimes.Twenty-six-year-old Cat Kinsella overcame a troubled childhood to become a Detective Constable with the Metropolitan Police Force, but she’s never been able to banish these ghosts. When she’s called to the scene of a murder in Islington, not far from the pub her estranged father still runs, she discovers that Alice Lapaine, a young housewife who didn’t get out much, has been found strangled.Cat and her team immediately suspect Alice’s husband, until she receives a mysterious phone call that links the victim to Maryanne Doyle, a teenage girl who went missing in Ireland eighteen years earlier. The call raises uneasy memories for Cat—her family met Maryanne while on holiday, right before she vanished. Though she was only a child, Cat knew that her charming but dissolute father wasn’t telling the truth when he denied knowing anything about Maryanne or her disappearance. Did her father do something to the teenage girl all those years ago? Could he have harmed Alice now? And how can you trust a liar even if he might be telling the truth?Determined to close the two cases, Cat rushes headlong into the investigation, crossing ethical lines and trampling professional codes. But in looking into the past, she might not like what she finds. . . .

California Dreaming: Movement and Place in the Asian American Imaginary
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 59.89 $Adult Manga looks at the rise and fall of Japan's mammoth comic industry since the 1960s. In this stimulating and refreshing work, Kinsella documents the structure and history of the manga industry, probes into its related subculture and the anti-nerd otaku panic, and examines the difficult and fascinating relationship between the artists and editors who create manga. In the process, she argues that Japanese comics have shifted from being a lower class medium for marginal citizens to become a novel form of official communication, recently embraced by big business and national institutions. This ascent of manga through various layers of postwar society reflects the wider transformation of politics and social organization in Japan during the last years of the twentieth century.

Repossessions: Selected Essays on Irish Literary Heritage (Literature)
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 59.78 $Repossessions is an exceptional achievement, illustrating as it does the unique work of a poet and literary scholar, well-known for his original thinking and accessible approach to literary subjects in Irish. Although he has published widely in Irish language journals and has edited with Thomas Kinsella the highly acclaimed An Duanaire/Poems of the Dispossessed, this is the first time that the full breadth of his critical work has been made available in English.Using translations of the original texts for his commentary, the author begins with an examination of the work of Sean O Riordain and Nuala Ni Dhomhnaill. There follows discussions on seventeenth and eighteenth century poetry, Brian Merriman, the renowned Lament for Art O'Leary, the world of Aogan O Rathaille, and an examination of the European context of Irish love poetry from the thirteenth century through to the mid-seventeenth century, acknowledged to be one of the most significant contributions to Irish literary history.

Other People's Songs
Vendor: Deepdiscount.com Price: 23.77 $ (+1.99 $)Other People's Songs is a collection of eight covers that Kinsella recorded this spring in Chicago with trusted producer Neil Strauch. At first glance, the list of the rock and punk artists whose tracks Kinsella tackled - among them Against Me!, Depeche Mode, the Promise Ring, and Lungfish - might seem at odds with the often quieter, lushly arranged music he releases under the Owen moniker. But upon closer inspection, one finds the kind of excellent songwriting and lyrical wit that are hallmarks

How You Look When You're Falling Down
Vendor: Deepdiscount.com Price: 2.11 $ (+1.99 $)Vinyl LP pressing. For Nate Kinsella, the music he plays as Birthmark creates a place for his mind to go to get away from the real world. On his last album, 2012's achingly intimate Antibodies, he explored quiet, contemplative terrain. But on his fourth LP, How You Look When You're Falling Down, Kinsella actively sought to create a more positive and energized place. Much of the album's inspiration came from Kinsella's move from Illinois to NYC, which pushed him out of his Midwestern comfort zone

The King Of Whys
Vendor: Deepdiscount.com Price: 2.55 $180 gram vinyl LP pressing, includes digital download.

Produced by S. Carey over 18 days last winter at April Base Studios in Eau Claire, WI, the album is Owen's most inspired and evocative thus far, interpolating a group dynamic into

All in the Family
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 40.95 $All in the Family, first published in 1964, is a portrait of the Kinsellas, a prominent and proud Irish-American New England clan: Uncle Jimmy at its head, his three sons—James, Phil and Charles—and their cousin Jack, the novel’s narrator. Jack and his cousins become fast friends in boyhood, and these friendships endure as they grow up—James to the priesthood, Phil and Charles to the law, and Jack, after a brief foray in politics (recounted in The Last Hurrah), to the life of a novelist.When Uncle Jimmy incites the Charles Kinsella Mayoral Campaign, Jack declines to join, despite Phil’s fervent promise that victory will bring about an unprecedented achievement: scouring the parasitical scum that infest their city. But even as Charles leaps from the mayoralty to the governorship, and the Kinsellas reach the height of their success, a threat looms over them, ready to violently disrupt, if not outright destroy, this fiercely loyal family.Infused with the romantic, tragicomic spirit which dwells at the heart of the Irish-American experience, All in the Family is an expansive, highly readable tale with an unforgettable dénouement.
