Here, my new book of interconnected short stories, explores community: how we relate to one another, how the troubled layers of our past affects our present lives, the heartaches that define and defy us. It’s “an ode to place, love, and collective care,” according to Maggie Burton’s kind words. As a Newfoundlander and Labradorian, I am both fiercely protective and equally critical of my home. And so, many of the selections on this list are written by Newfoundland and Labrador authors.

In addressing these questions, Irving Epstein brings together insights from film theory, affect theory and CIE to explore the ways in which educational meanings are mediated through globalization processes.

Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. X-rays are powerful, moving through objects undetected, revealing the body as a tryptic of skin, tissue, and bone. X-rays gave rise to a transparent world and the belief that transparency conveys truth. It stands to reason then that our relationship with X-rays would be a complicated one of fear and fascination, acceptance and resistance, confusion and curiosity.
