THE GARNET RED is the chilling and powerfully emotional story of three women. Told in multiple voices, THE GARNET RED chronicles the psychological and spiritual voyage of an elderly, but vital woman and the two girls that she befriends along the way. When Rosa Frobischer buried her beloved George, a famous screenwriter, she found that along with her husband, she had also interred her own identity. Rosa's journey takes her back to Marionneaux, Louisiana, the place of her birth. There, she finds comfort in the friendship of Shelby Halifax, a spoiled debutante and Dove Ji, an overweight girl shocked into shyness by her parents' emotional abuse. Soon, Rosa is tormented by seemingly inexplicable dreams in which she is drowning in a razor-sharp sea of garnets and haunted by vivid memories of her long-suppressed past. As Rosa looks into the snarling face of truth, she realizes she must protect Shelby and Dove from a similar fate as they quickly realize that their own lives are founded in lies.

Garnet, with its many color varieties, is a favorite of both mineral collectors and gemologists. Superb examples are found at many locales worldwide, in both igneous and metamorphic rocks. Other members of the group are prized by species collectors and micromount enthusiasts. Over 120 color photos of these beautiful minerals show each species in its geological context. This book also explains how garnets are formed and the unique conditions that create fine crystals and vivid colors. After a brief introduction, the general treatment begins with an explanation of the chemistry and taxonomy of the group. A section on their formation and geochemistry explains the kinds of environments where garnets are formed. Detailed entries for each mineral provide locality information and full-color photos so that collectors can see what good specimens look like and which minerals one might expect to find in association with them. An extensive bibliography is provided.

Abolition. Feminism. Now. is a celebration of freedom work, a movement genealogy, a call to action, and a challenge to those who think of abolition and feminism as separate—even incompatible—political projects. In this remarkable collaborative work, leading scholar-activists Angela Y. Davis, Gina Dent, Erica R. Meiners, and Beth E. Richie surface the often unrecognized genealogies of queer, anti-capitalist, internationalist, grassroots, and women-of-color-led feminist movements, struggles, and organizations that have helped to define abolition and feminism in the twenty-first century. This pathbreaking book also features illustrations documenting the work of grassroots organizers embodying abolitionist feminist practice. Amplifying the analysis and the theories of change generated out of vibrant community based organizing, Abolition. Feminism. Now. highlights necessary historical linkages, key internationalist learnings, and everyday practices to imagine a future where we can all thrive.
