The strange and unique characters in this collection include a zombie who secretly resides in a local cemetery; a queer teen goth who is facing ostracism from her small-town evangelical church; a Brooklyn artist who learns more about the Israeli\/Palestinian conflict than he ever wanted to; and the UFOs that trouble a group of friends in the rural Midwest.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49572970365201,"sku":"GOR009236680","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49774428258577,"sku":"CIN1609807456G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50183951122705,"sku":"CIN1609807456VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1609807456.jpg?v=1750763057"},{"product_id":"100-times-book-chavisa-woods-9781609809133","title":"100 Times","description":"A catalogue of one hundred incidents of sexism, harassment, and assault from age five to now by Lambda Literary Award finalist, Chavisa Woods. From gender-based discrimination in work places, to unsolicited groping from strangers in public, to the attempted assaults on herself and the assaults of close friends, Woods uses personal stories to prove that sexual violence and discrimination never just happen once, but that it is a consistent battle women and woman aligned people face every day. 100 Times is powerful in its straightforwardness, demonstrating how often women are forced to silently endure sexism and harassment and how men are encouraged to feel entitled to another person's space and body. Woods reveals that no age, orientation, time, or place helps prevent sexual violence and that a more in depth conversation is needed to bring it to an end.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50274458239249,"sku":"CIN1609809130A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50448288743697,"sku":"CIN1609809130VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50828938084625,"sku":"CIN1609809130G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50893948518673,"sku":"GOR014110024","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1609809130.jpg?v=1751246051"},{"product_id":"things-to-do-when-you-re-goth-in-the-country-book-chavisa-woods-9781609809157","title":"Things to Do When You're Goth in the Country","description":"\"Darkly funny and brilliantly human, urgently fantastical and implacably realistic. This is one of the best short story collections I've read in years. It should be required reading for anyone who's trying to understand America in 2017.\" -Paul La Farge, author of The Night Ocean The eight stories in Things to Do When You're Goth in the Country paint a vivid image of people living on the fringes in America, people who don't do what you might expect them to. Not stories of triumph over adversity, but something completely other. Described in language that is brilliantly sardonic, Woods's characters return repeatedly to places where they don't belong-often the places where they were born. In \"Zombie,\" a coming-of-age story like no other, two young girls find friendship with a mysterious woman in the local cemetery. \"Take the Way Home That Leads Back to Sullivan Street\" describes a lesbian couple trying to repair their relationship by dropping acid at a Mensa party. In \"A New Mohawk,\" a man in romantic pursuit of a female political activist becomes inadvertently much more familiar with the Palestine\/Israel conflict than anyone would have thought possible. And in the title story, Woods brings us into the mind of a queer goth teenager who faces ostracism from her small-town evangelical church. In the background are the endless American wars and occupations and too many early deaths of friends and family. This is fiction that is fresh and of the moment, even as it is timeless.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50385832313105,"sku":"CIN1609809157G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50461355704593,"sku":"GOR011044563","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50577479991569,"sku":"CIN1609809157VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52783857959185,"sku":"GOR014620555","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1609809157.jpg?v=1751456610"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-chavisa-woods.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
