Disorientation by Elaine Hsieh Chou
“Gleefully dark and incisive . . . Chou’s examination of the catch-22s faced by Asian Americans, particularly women, straddles the line between satiric and searing . . . Disorientation is the best combination of entertaining and thought-provoking, and Chou is an exciting new voice in novel-length fiction.” —Shelf Awareness
The Shame Machine by Cathy O’Neil
“Whether it’s smoking in public, masking against Covid-19, or promulgating political lies, O’Neil allows room for shame while also urging readers always to ‘punch up’ at the social and economic machine and its masters rather than down at the vulnerable. A thoughtful blend of social and biological science, history, economics, and sometimes contrarian politics.”—Kirkus Reviews
The Journey of Humanity by Oded Galor
“In lucid, accessible prose, Galor ingeniously traces obscure influences over centuries…This engrossing history reveals that subtle causes can have astounding effects.” —Publishers Weekly
All the White Friends I Couldn't Keep by Andre Henry
“In this rousing debut, singer-songwriter Henry mines his painful experiences talking with white people about anti-Black racism to chart a path forward for racial justice activists. . . . A timely declaration from an exciting voice, this is sure to inspire those in pursuit of radical change.”—Publishers Weekly
