A brilliant young philosophy student bent on seducing her famous philosopher-mentor finds herself outmaneuvered; diabolically clever high school girls wreak a particularly apt sort of vengeance on sexual predators in their community; a woman stalked by a would-be killer may be confiding in the wrong former lover; a young woman is morbidly obsessed by her unfamiliar new role as mother. In the collections longest story, a much-praised cutting-edge writer cruelly experiments with drafts of his own suicide. In these powerfully wrought stories that hold a mirror up to our time, Joyce Carol Oates has created a world of erotic obsession, thwarted idealism, and ever-shifting identities. Provocative and stunning, Zero-Sum reinforces Oates' standing as a literary treasure and an artist of the mysterious interior life. Cover image:  Zeno's Arrow. 1964 by Ren Magritte © 2022 C.

It was one of history's great vanishing acts. Around 3,400 BCE -- as humans were gathering in complex urban settlements -- a scribe in the mud-walled city-state of Uruk picked up a reed stylus to press tiny symbols into clay. For three millennia, wedge shape cuneiform script would record the military conquests, scientific discoveries, and epic literature of the great Mesopotamian kingdoms of Sumer, Assyria, and Babylon and of Persia's mighty Achaemenid Empire, along with precious minutiae about everyday life in the cradle of civilization. And then...the meaning of the characters was lost. London, 1857. In an era obsessed with human progress, mysterious palaces emerging from the desert sands had captured the Victorian public's imagination. Yet Europe's best philologists struggled to decipher the bizarre inscriptions excavators were digging up. Enter a swashbuckling archaeologist, a suave British military officer turned diplomat, and a cloistered Irish rector, all vying for glory in a race to decipher this script that would enable them to peek farther back into human history than ever before. From the ruins of Persepolis to lawless outposts of the crumbling Ottoman Empire, The Mesopotamian Riddle whisks you on a wild adventure through the golden age of archaeology in an epic quest to understand our past.]]></description><link>https://barrie.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S177C1884043</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://barrie.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S177C1884043</guid><category><![CDATA[DAISY]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Hammer, Joshua]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://barrie.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1884043177</comments><format>DAISY</format><subtitle>An Archaeologist, A Soldier, A Clergyman and the Race to Decipher the World&apos;s Oldest Writing</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781038487179/MC.GIF&amp;client=barriep&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trespassers at the Golden Gate]]></title><description><![CDATA[The sensational, forgotten true story of a woman who murdered her married lover in Gilded Age San Francisco and the trial that epitomized the city's transformation from raucous frontier town into modern metropolis -- from the New York Times bestselling author of Empire of Sin Shortly before dusk on November 3, 1870, just as the ferryboat El Capitan was pulling away from its slip into San Francisco Bay, a woman clad in black emerged from the shadows and strode across the crowded deck. Reaching under her veil, she drew a small pistol and aimed it directly at a well-dressed man sitting quietly with his wife and children. The woman fired a single bullet into his chest. "I did it and I don't deny it," she said when arrested shortly thereafter. "He ruined both myself and my daughter." Though little remembered today, the trial of Laura D. Fair for the murder of her lover, A. P. Crittenden, made headlines nationwide. As bestselling author Gary Krist reveals, the operatic facts of the case -- a woman strung along for years by a two-timing man, killing him in an alleged fit of madness -- challenged an American populace still searching for moral consensus after the Civil War. The trial shone an early and uncomfortable spotlight on social issues like the role of women, the sanctity of the family, and the range of acceptable expressions of gender, while jolting the still-adolescent metropolis of 1870s San Francisco, a city eager to shed its rough-and-tumble Gold Rush-era reputation. Trespassers at the Golden Gate brings readers inside the untamed frontier town, a place where -- for a brief period -- otherwise marginalized communities found unique opportunities. Readers meet a secretly wealthy Black housekeeper, an enterprising Chinese brothel madam, and a French rabble-rouser who refused to dress in sufficiently "feminine" clothing -- as well as familiar figures like Mark Twain and Susan B. Anthony, who become swept up in the drama of the Laura Fair affair.  Krist, who previously brought New Orleans to vivid life in Empire of Sin and Chicago in City of Scoundrels, recounts this astonishing story and its surprisingly modern echoes in a rollicking narrative that probes what it all meant -- both for a nation still scarred by war and for a city eager for the world stage.]]></description><link>https://barrie.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S177C1884055</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://barrie.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S177C1884055</guid><category><![CDATA[DAISY]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Krist, Gary]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://barrie.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1884055177</comments><format>DAISY</format><subtitle>A True Account of Love, Murder, and Madness in Gilded-Age San Francisco</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781049922751/MC.GIF&amp;client=barriep&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries]]></title><description><![CDATA[NATIONAL BESTSELLER A curmudgeonly professor journeys to a small town in the far north to study faerie folklore and discovers dark fae magic, friendship, and love in the start of a heartwarming and enchanting new fantasy series.

She is a genius scholar and a meticulous researcher who is writing the world's first encyclopaedia of faerie lore. But Emily Wilde is not good at people . She could never make small talk at a party - or even get invited to one. And she prefers the company of her books, her dog, Shadow, and the Fair Folk to other people.

The marriage is more an agreement between two families and less a romantic connection between two hearts, but Rosalind becoming a duchess will elevate her family's status to dizzying heights. And the duke is a kind man who will care for Rosalind, even if he doesn't love her. She only has three weeks before her life changes forever, and she knows exactly how she wants to spend her days. As a child, Ros was inspired by her adventurous Aunt Alice and created a list of ten things to do before her wedding day. So far, Ros has done none of them. She is determined to tackle each item, though she'll have to accomplish them all in secret. After all, a soon-to-be-duchess is not usually allowed to bury treasure in the pasture, eat sweets all day, or learn how to swim. She enlists the help of her best friend, Liza, who brings along her cousin, Charlie, a prodigal son-turned-boxer who has come to the countryside to mend his reputation and learn how to be his father's heir. Together, the three of them work to complete the list, and as each item is crossed off, an unlikely friendship blossoms between Ros and Charlie. The more time they spend together, the more Ros falls in love with this imperfect man and his good heart. With the wedding looming, Ros must decide to either admit her romantic feelings for Charlie and risk her family's future, or keep her promise to marry the duke and start a new life as a noblewoman.]]></description><link>https://barrie.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S177C1884015</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://barrie.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S177C1884015</guid><category><![CDATA[DAISY]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Walker, Megan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://barrie.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1884015177</comments><format>DAISY</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781038458254/MC.GIF&amp;client=barriep&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Is She Really Gone]]></title><description><![CDATA[Patterson's search continues in the gripping follow-up to Sister Where Are You.
