In The Wicked Truth: When Good People Do Bad Things, now available at Amazon.com, author Suzanne Ross uses the lyrics and story of the Tony award winning musical, Wicked, to challenge the understanding of good and evil that forms the framework of our culture, and to offer solutions to the endless, escalating cycle of justified violence. By exposing the flawed and fatal logic of how to be good that drive the musicals plot, Ross reveals how being good can lead to scapegoating and violence. As Elphaba and Glinda, the witches of Oz, move from loathing to competition to true friendship, the author guides readers to examine the comfortable certainty of their own personal goodness and begin to grapple with their own capacity for evil. Exhorting readers to embrace the murky grey of uncertainty, Ross proposes a Creed of Compassion that would allow readers to join the witches in singing, I have been changed for good. The Wicked Truth examines the play Wicked, the musical prequel to the Wizard of Oz, for the moral and ethical issues introduced by the death of the wickedest witch that ever was. When the story of Elphaba, the talented but misunderstood green-skinned outcast who becomes the enemy of the Wizard and all of Oz, is told by Glinda the Good, Elphabas former classmate, a new picture emerges. Was she truly wicked or was wickedness thrust upon [her]? As the story unfolds, Ross explains the mechanism of scapegoating that ensnares the characters, a system where an innocent person or group is vilified and ultimately sacrificed for the benefit and unification of the community. To further the readers understanding, the author enriches her explanations with historical and personal examples. Thedeepening action of the play convincingly illustrates Ross argument that the way society defines being go

The modern quest for love is a tangle of pitfalls where obstacles and suffering are mistaken for true love. While most pop culture advice about finding true love focuses on how to identify the perfect love object or on how to make yourself into such an object, the triangular and mimetic (imitative) nature of desire is rarely acknowledged, leaving the seeker feeling frustrated, hopeless, and somehow incapable of love. In The Wicked Truth About Love: The Tangles of Desire, author Suzanne Ross guides the reader in an engaging exploration of their personal romantic patterns using a survey based on the triangular nature of desire. Six patterns of desire are identified to reveal the readers mimetic pitfalls. Whimsical illustrations, examples in contemporary entertainment, original music downloads and witty wisdom allows the reader to understand and dismantle their romantic tangles, leaving them free to discover the gift that love can be.

Rebecca Podos, Lambda Literary Award–winning author of Like Water, returns with a lush, dark, and unforgettable story of the power of the past to shape our futures—and the courage it takes to change them. Ruby Chernyavsky has been told the stories since she was a child: The women in her family, once possessed of great magical abilities to remake lives and stave off death itself, were forced to flee their Russian home for America in order to escape the fearful men who sought to destroy them. Such has it always been, Ruby’s been told, for powerful women. Today, these stories seem no more real to Ruby than folktales, except for the smallest bit of power left in their blood: when each of them comes of age, she will have a vision of who she will be when she dies—a destiny as inescapable as it is inevitable. Ruby is no exception, and neither is her mother, although she ran from her fate years ago, abandoning Ruby and her sisters. It’s a fool’s errand, because they all know the truth: there is no escaping one’s Time. Until Ruby’s great-aunt Polina passes away, and, for the first time, a Chernyavsky’s death does not match her vision. Suddenly, things Ruby never thought she’d be allowed to hope for—life, love, time—seem possible. But as she and her cousin Cece begin to dig into the family’s history to find out whether they, too, can change their fates, they learn that nothing comes without a cost. Especially not hope.
