Cat Book started out simply enough. Emily Weinstein set out to do a series of monoprints of cats she is personally acquainted with. Exploring the subject, she soon learned that every cat has a story, and one story led to another. As the stories became more fantastic, Weinstein traveled to places like West Virginia to meet Regis, the talking cat, and to Brooklyn's world renowned Scarlet, who rescued her five kittens from a fire. 
The book ventures from Scarlet to Avi climbing up 80-foot trees; then Snappy sailing around the world; Kitten, a two-timing neutered Persian; Dazzle surviving against all odds; Wild Boy, born feral in the High Sierras; Space Kitty rescued from a lab . . . just to name a few. 
Equipped with art supplies, note pad and cat treats, Weinstein worked to entice her subjects to paint them and interview their people all at the same time. Remarkably, it all works in this unique, beautiful, often touching and funny book on cats. It's all great fun --and wonderful art!

Twenty people coming together in a creative synergy in the Life Writing Tutorial at the Huntington (WV) Museum of Art made for serendipity. The class's work bubbled over into this book of true-life tales, a number of which are headed for publication as books on their own. 
Here you will find stories of training to be a champion skater in windswept isolation, of doing a delirious dance on a Florida dock as an antidote to a crushing marital separation, of trembling in bed waiting for a Soviet nuclear attack during the Cuban Missile Crisis, of Ndlazi the witch doctor operating out of a smoke-darkened hut in South Africa, of a child being chased by a cherry-red gobbler turkey, of visiting the cell in a crumbling prison where the writer's grandfather had died -- and considerably more. 
For men and women of all ages who aspire to be published, The Life Writing Class is a welcome ray of inspiration and hope!

Wild Sweet Notes II: More Great Poetry From West Virginia

Boggess, Ace

The worlds of a black family and a Jewish family unexpectedly collide in 1948 Chicago after a bizarre accident leaves a black boy injured. Sass Trimble, the black boy from Bronzeville, "Chicago's Harlem," and Steve Feinberg, a Jewish boy from well-to-do Hyde Park, get on a bus together and get lost in the city. Once free from the neighborhoods that have defined them, the boys explore the city together with enthusiasm, while their families tear each other apart in fear.Steve and Sass spend a day and a night getting more and more lost, and along the way they also lose their inclination to go home. At last the boys discover Riverview -- then "The world's largest amusement park" -- where racism catches up to them in the cruelest possible way.The boys’ newfound freedom contrasts sharply with the constraints of the novel’s adult characters, both black and white, whose fear makes them as ready to attack one another as they are to expect attacks. The boys’ families know that Steve and Sass are together, a fact that upsets them as much as the fact that the boys are lost. Racial tensions reach the boiling point when the families meet in a storefront church in Bronzeville, and personal choices are weighed with a shattering clarity against the pressures of the city.
