From journalist, fashionista, and clothing resale expert Elizabeth L. Cline, “the Michael Pollan of fashion,”* comes the definitive guide to building an ethical, sustainable wardrobe you'll love. Clothing is one of the most personal expressions of who we are. In her landmark investigation Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion, Elizabeth L. Cline first revealed fast fashion’s hidden toll on the environment, garment workers, and even our own satisfaction with our clothes. The Conscious Closet shows exactly what we can do about it. Whether your goal is to build an effortless capsule wardrobe, keep up with trends without harming the environment, buy better quality, seek out ethical brands, or all of the above, The Conscious Closet is packed with the vital tools you need. Elizabeth delves into fresh research on fashion’s impacts and shows how we can leverage our everyday fashion choices to change the world through style. Inspired by her own revelatory journey getting off the fast-fashion treadmill, Elizabeth shares exactly how to build a more ethical wardrobe, starting with a mindful closet clean-out and donating, swapping, or selling the clothes you don't love to make way for the closet of your dreams. The Conscious Closet is not just a style guide. It is a call to action to transform one of the most polluting industries on earth—fashion—into a force for good. Readers will learn where our clothes are made and how they’re made, before connecting to a global and impassioned community of stylish fashion revolutionaries. In The Conscious Closet, Elizabeth shows us how we can start to truly love and understand our clothes again—without sacrificing the environment, our morals, or our style in the process. *Michelle Goldberg, Newsweek/The Daily Beast

An allegory against the pompous, legalistic Christian. A parable against the Mega Church. Two races of people: the Fausts and the Christians. One is black-clad, cursed to wear the color that matches their hearts. The other are white-wearers, clothed in God's Glorious White. Christland, where every street, avenue, home, and business are as white as snow. Faustland, where everything is as ebony as night. Two half-breeds: one with Christian blood, though clearly a black-clad Faust. The other a Christian, with Faust-blood running through her veins. Together, they defy all which they'd been taught to believe...

Before the century ends within an always connected world, the global information technology company Enclosure Cloud Systems uses time-travel to remove the data footprint of people that want to escape the present. Consumers instead want to lead a new life in the past, a known constant. When a time relocation error occurs, Detectives Anna Price and Jason Lin attempt to solve the questionable deaths that result. Enclosure controls the content we consume, and the value we place on privacy, or lack thereof, in this future society. Information is power, and Enclosure has all of it. To escape this lack of privacy, Enclosure has presented the option of time travel, a way to leave the present and live in the past anonymously. The data footprint that is your life is then reset. A time travel relocation error occurs, and a couple is killed as they are removed from time. Anna, isolated from connected reality, and her partner Jason, always connected to the cloud, are tasked with this investigation. As they navigate this future world of augmented and virtual reality, self-driving cars, autonomous weapons platforms, machine conscious and artificial intelligence, they find themselves pulled deeper into a conspiracy of epic proportions and everything is connected, or so they think.
