A reunion between childhood friends stirs up the traumas of the past—and poses a threat in the present . . . As a young, deeply insecure girl, Karen was targeted, and traumatized, by her friend Sandra’s father. Now, decades later, he is dead—and Karen has been reunited with Sandra, whom she hasn’t seen in ages. Against her better judgment, she agrees to meet Sandra at a nearby restaurant, and Sandra proves to be just as thoughtless and self-absorbed as she was back when the two of them and their friend Yvonne were attending school dances together. Karen has a husband and children now, and they live in a beautiful home thanks to a successful family business. Sandra is supposed to be in town only temporarily, so Karen tolerates her excessive drinking and intrusive questions. But things become more difficult as her life starts to go awry—and as this taut, unsettling novel moves between past and present, secrets come to the surface and both women will come to understand the true cost of betrayal . . .

Four-year-old Danny lives with his mother Natalie - 'Meemaw' - in a small Sussex town. Life is a struggle in their damp flat, where they depend on benefits for their peanut butter, bread, and Meemaw's phone data and rollies. When they are threatened with a benefits sanction for arriving late to a Job Centre appointment, salvation appears in the form of Karen, an employee. But Karen's impact is to reach far beyond this one generous gesture, as she and Natalie embark on an intense relationship - one Natalie hopes will mark a fresh start, but which quickly turns toxic... Told in the voice of an intelligent, passionate and unusual child, TALE OF A TOOTH is a story of the impact of domestic abuse on a vulnerable family unit.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Tears We Cannot Stop "Entertaining Race is a splendid way to spend quality time reading one of the most remarkable thinkers in America today." —Speaker Nancy Pelosi "To read Entertaining Race is to encounter the life-long vocation of a teacher who preaches, a preacher who teaches and an activist who cannot rest until all are set free." —Senator Reverend Raphael Warnock For more than thirty years, Michael Eric Dyson has played a prominent role in the nation as a public intellectual, university professor, cultural critic, social activist and ordained Baptist minister. He has presented a rich and resourceful set of ideas about American history and culture. Now for the first time he brings together the various components of his multihued identity and eclectic pursuits. Entertaining Race is a testament to Dyson’s consistent celebration of the outsized impact of African American culture and politics on this country. Black people were forced to entertain white people in slavery, have been forced to entertain the idea of race from the start, and must find entertaining ways to make race an object of national conversation. Dyson’s career embodies these and other ways of performing Blackness, and in these pages, ranging from 1991 to the present, he entertains race with his pen, voice and body, and occasionally, alongside luminaries like Cornel West, David Blight, Ibram X. Kendi, Master P, MC Lyte, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Alicia Garza, John McWhorter, and Jordan Peterson. Most of this work will be new to readers, a fresh light for many of his long-time fans and an inspiring introduction for newcomers. Entertaining Race offers a compelling vision from the mind and heart of one of America’s most important and enduring voices.

We are in the midst of a global refugee crisis. Sixty five million people are fleeing for their lives. The choices are urgent, not just for them but for all of us. What can we possibly do to help? With compassion and clarity, David Miliband shows why we should care and how we can make a difference. He takes us from war zones in the Middle East to peaceful suburbs in America to explain the crisis and show what can be done, not just by governments with the power to change policy but by citizens with the urge to change lives. His innovative and practical call to action shows that the crisis need not overwhelm us. Miliband says this is a fight to uphold the best of human nature in the face of rhetoric and policy that humor the worst. He defends the international order built by western leaders out of the ashes of World War II, but says now is the time for reform. Describing his family story and drawing revealing lessons from his life in politics, David Miliband shows that if we fail refugees, then we betray our own history, values, and interests. The message is simple: rescue refugees and we rescue ourselves.
