- Toad / by Dunn, Katherine,1945-2016,author.; Crabapple, Molly,writer of introduction.;
Includes bibliographical references."Sally Gunnar has withdrawn from the world. She spends her days alone at home, reading drugstore mysteries, polishing the doorknobs, waxing the floors. Her only companions are a vase of godfish, a garden toad, and the door-to-door salesman who sells her cleaning suplies once a month. She broods over her deepest regrets: her blighted romances with self-important men, her lifelong struggle to feel at home in her body, and her wayward early twenties, when she was a fish out of water among a group of eccentric, privileged young people at a liberal arts college. There was Sam, an unabashed collector of other people's stories; Carlotta, a troubled free spirit; and Rennel, a self-obsessed philosophy student. Self-deprecating and sardonic, Sally recounts their misadventures, up to the tragedy that tore them apart. Colorful, crass, and profound, Toad is Katherine Dunn's ode to her time as a student at Reed College, filled with the same keen observations, taboo-shirking verve, and singular characters that made Geek Love a cult classic. Daring and bizarre, Toad is a brilliant precursor to the book that would make Dunn a misfit hero -- even fifty-some years after it was written, it's a refreshing take on the lives of young outsiders treading the delicate lines between isolation and freedom, love and insanity, hatred and friendship"--- Subjects: Novels.; Friendship; Regret; Young adults;

- Love your life : a novel / by Kinsella, Sophie,author.;
"Call Ava romantic, but she thinks love should be found in the real world, not on apps that filter men by height, job, or astrological sign. She believes in feelings, not algorithms. So after a recent breakup and dating app debacle, she decides to put love on hold and escapes to a remote writers' retreat in coastal Italy. She's determined to finish writing the novel she's been fantasizing about, even though it means leaving her close-knit group of friends and her precious dog, Harold, behind. At the retreat, she's not allowed to use her real name or reveal any personal information. When the neighboring martial arts retreat is canceled and a few of its attendees join their small writing community, Ava, now going by 'Aria,' meets 'Dutch,' a man who seems too good to be true. The two embark on a baggage-free, whirlwind love affair, cliff-jumping into gem-colored Mediterranean waters and exploring the splendor of the Italian coast--stretches of beaches, architectural wonders, aromas of olive groves and lemontrees, signature orecchiette pasta, and rainbow-colored houses that line the shore. Things seem to be perfect for Aria and Dutch. But then their real identities--Ava and Matt--must return to London. As their fantasy starts to fade, they discover just how different their personal worlds are. From food choices to annoying habits to sauna etiquette ... are they compatible in anything? And then there's the prickly situation with Matt's ex-girlfriend, who isn't too eager to let him go. As one mishap follows another, it seems while they love each other, they just can't love each other's lives. Can they reconcile their differences to find one life together?"--- Subjects: Chick lit.; Humorous fiction.; Man-woman relationships; Writers' retreats;

- Karuara, People of the River. by Araoz Cartagena, Miguel,film director.; Boyd, Stephanie,film director.; New Day Films (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Originally produced by New Day Films in 2024.Mariluz Canaquiri says her river is more than just a body of water, it’s a living being. Beneath the surface lies a world of spirits led by the Karuara, which means “people of the river” in her Indigenous language. The film’s stunning hand painted animations take viewers into this magical universe where spirits lounge in hammocks made of boa constrictors and play sardine poker. Behind their playfulness, the Karuara are metaphysical ecologists who maintain the delicate balance of life in the Amazon’s rivers. But Mariluz says the old ways are being forgotten and her people face cultural genocide. While foreign companies earn millions from the Amazon’s resources, Indigenous communities lack basic health care, high schools and clean water. Mariluz leads a federation of Kukama women who win a groundbreaking lawsuit demanding the Peruvian government recognize their river as a legal person, with rights. In a world that puts a price tag on nature, this film reminds us of our sacred connection to water. This artistically beautiful film has won 12 awards, including the LASA award of merit in film, the UNESCO Dolomites award at the Bolzano film festival and the WACC-SIGNIS Human Rights award. Mariluz Canaquiri, who is also one of the film’s producers, was awarded the prestigious Goldman Environmental Prize for Latin America in 2025.Mode of access: World Wide Web.- Subjects: Documentary films.; Arts.; Social sciences.; Philosophy and religion.; Anthropology.; Motion pictures.; Latin America.; Foreign study.; Documentary films.; Indigenous peoples.; Artists.; Current affairs.; Health.; History.; Animated films.; Spirituality.; Amazon River Region.; Environmental health.; Water.; Peru.; Motion pictures--Latin America.;
