    Nomadland
    From the beet fields of North Dakota to the campgrounds of California to Amazon’s CamperForce program in Texas, employers have discovered a new, low-cost labor pool, made up largely of transient older adults. These invisible casualties of the Great Recession have taken to the road by the tens of thousands in RVs and modified vans, forming a growing community of nomads. Nomadland tells a revelatory tale of the dark underbelly of the American economy - one which foreshadows the precarious future that may await many more of us. At the same time, it celebrates the exceptional resilience and creativity of these Americans who have given up ordinary rootedness to survive, but have not given up hope.

The Night Will Be Long is a dark, twisting thriller filled with moments of humor and pain--a story that will stick with readers long after they turn the last page.

    A Factotum in the Book Trade
    * Contemporary resonance: in an era of growing anti-Amazon sentiment and the widespread effects of COVID-19 on bookshop employees, Factotum takes up the unsung anthem of the bookseller. While there are quite a few memoirs of the book trade, Kociejowski's is told not from the perspective of those who run the trade but from its ticklish underbelly-the factotum 'as watcher, spook, chronicler of the mundane.' * This book originated as an essay in The Pebble Chance (2014). Publisher Dan Wells requested it be turned into a full book, and it joins our growing list of bookish books: * Kociejowski's previous work (poetry, essays, travel writing) has garnered rave reviews in Washington Post, TLS, the Globe and Mail, Library Journal, and elsewhere.
