The Change [Bok / Inbunden]

<p>An exciting debut novel that gives voice to the diverse residents of a Palestinian community in Baltimore-from young activists in conflict with their traditional parents to the poor who clean for the rich-lives which intersect across divides of class, generation, and religion.</p> <p>Funny and touching, <em>Behind You Is the Sea</em> brings us into the homes and lives of three main Palestinian immigrants families -the Baladis, the Salamehs, and the Ammars.</p> <p>Their various fates and struggles cause their community dynamic to sizzle and sometimes explode: The wealthy Ammar family employs young Maysoon Baladi, whose family struggles financially, to clean up after their spoiled teenagers. Meanwhile, Marcus Salameh, whose aunt married into the wealthy Ammar family, confronts his father in an effort to protect his younger sister for "dishonoring" the family. Only a trip to Palestine, where Marcus experiences an unexpected and dramatic transformation, can bridge this seemingly unbridgeable divide between the two generations.</p> <p><em>Behind You Is the Sea</em> faces stereotypes about Palestinian culture head-on and, shifting perspectives to weave a complex social fabric replete with weddings, funerals, broken hearts, and devastating secrets.</p>

<b>The sequel to the <i>Sunday</i> <i>Times </i>and international-bestselling South Korean therapy memoir, translated by International Booker Prize-shortlisted Anton Hur</b> When Baek Sehee started recording her sessions with her psychiatrist, her hope was to create a reference for herself. She never imagined she would reach so many people, especially young people, with her reflections. <i>I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki </i>became a runaway bestseller in South Korea, Indonesia, and the U.S., and reached a community of readers who appreciated depression and anxiety being discussed with such intimacy. Baek's struggle with dysthymia continues in <i>I Want to Die but I Still Want to Eat Tteokbokki</i>. And healing is a difficult process; the inner conflict she experiences in treatment becomes more complex, more challenging. With this second book, Baek Sehee reaches out to hold the hands of all those for whom grappling with everyday despair is part of a lifelong project, part of the journey.
