This Good Book
'Sometimes I wonder, if I had known that it was going to take me fourteen years to paint this painting of the Crucifixion with Douglas as Jesus, and what it would take for me to paint this painting, would I have been as happy as I was then?'Susan Alison MacLeod, a Glasgow School of Art graduate with a dark sense of humour, first lays eyes on Douglas MacDougal at a party in 1988, and resolves to put him on the cross in the Crucifixion painting she's been sketching out, but her desire to create 'good' art and a powerful, beautiful portrayal means that a final painting doesn't see the light of day for fourteen years.Over the same years, Douglas's ever-more elaborately designed urine-based installations bring him increasing fame, prizes and commissions, while his modelling for Susan Alison, who continues to work pain and suffering on to the canvas, takes place mostly in the shadows. This Good Book is a wickedly funny, brilliantly observed novel that spins the moral compass and plays with notions of creating art.
The Complete City Attorney’s Office Series
The City Attorneys' Office series started off as a goof, and a way for author, Christopher Stockwell, to process the annoyance and irritation of working as a municipal criminal prosecutor. It became much more than that. The story follows a love triangle between Ben, Maria, and Erin. These three are the legs holding up a stool loaded with satirical, absurdist, and transgressive observations. Through that common storytelling device of the love triangle, Stockwell is able weave in the social commentary that is the true point of the series.Ben is a miscreant, a working-class kid who never should have wound up as a lawyer at all. Professional camouflage hid that fact for a long time. His pragmatic approach to the prosecutor's job often leaves him at odds with the suckers inhabiting the Land of Lollipops. Have a look behind the curtain. Most people think being a criminal lawyer is like what they see on Law & Order. It' not. It's like what you see on Better Call Saul. Enjoy!

Alice
Nina always thought her mother Alice was the most proper woman alive-an uptight, cardigan-wearing high school French teacher who never cussed and never did anything wild, except maybe going to a sperm bank to have Nina on her own. When Alice is informed this is the last year the school will offer French, they're both confident she'll land another teaching position. But on the last day of school, that still hasn't happened. They're storing years of personal teaching materials in the garage when a taxi pulls up. Out steps Jack-Alice's long-lost, long-haired, pot-smoking father from her chaotic youth.As Alice tries to keep Jack at arm's length, the past starts bleeding into the present-and then the future threatens to collapse. A bank notice reveals her neighborhood is being gutted by corporate takeovers and plummeting property values. Alice was depending on her home equity to carry them over until she gets a new job. With nothing left to lose, Alice-armed with Jack's protest signs and Nina's wide-eyed support-takes a stand.What begins as a one-woman sit-in turns into a grassroots movement, fueled by unlikely alliances and old-school rebellion. In a world where everything seems designed to keep people small and quiet, Alice is about to learn how loud she can be.
