        Zen of the Plains

        Experiencing Wild Western Places

        by Tyra Olstad

        Although spare, sweeping landscapes may appear “empty,” plains and prairies afford a rich, unique aesthetic experience—one of quiet sunrises and dramatic storms, hidden treasures and abundant wildlife, infinite horizons and omnipresent wind, all worthy of contemplation and celebration.  In this series of narratives, photographs, and hand-drawn maps, Tyra Olstad blends scholarly research with first-hand observation to explore topics such as wildness and wilderness, travel and tourism, preservation and conservation, expectations and acceptance, and even dreams and reality in the context of parks, prairies, and wild, open places. In so doing, she invites readers to reconsider the meaning of “emptiness” and ask larger, deeper questions such as: how do people experience the world? How do we shape places and how do places shape us? Above all, what does it mean to experience that exhilarating effect known as Zen of the plains?

        Memoir of A Jaded Woman

        Tainted Love

        by Emunah La-Paz

        A blogger becomes inspired by a friend's troubled marriage in this relationship guide. While working in Arizona, La-Paz (Why Do Married Men Cheat with Unattractive Women? 2011, etc.), a five -foot seven-inch black woman who had to watch my weight continuously to fit the bill as a print model,:  met blonde, "regal" Judie on a photo shoot. Although Judie "had graced the cover of numerous high-end magazines," she was desperately unhappy, having recently discovered that her photographer husband was cheating on her with an unattractive fast food worker. Judie's angry pal Jessie encouraged La-Paz to write a book about this phenomenon--men having affairs with women less attractive than their wives--which led to La-Paz meeting Judie's soon-to-be ex and his girlfriend. She also gathered together a focus group of "seasoned women who have overcome every aspect of a challenging marriage" and created a blog in which other people could sound off about infidelity. In this book, La-Paz shares highlights of these meetings and submissions; she also weaves in the relationship challenges of her own girlfriends and the women in her Bible study group. She wraps up by sharing Judie's 40-day journal, revealing the model's post -divorce journey to greater self-love and a new, happier relationship.
