Shrub

“Molly Ivins is gone, and her words will never grace these pages again -- for this, we will mourn. But Molly wasn't the type of woman who would want us to grieve. More likely, she'd say something like, "Hang in there, keep fightin' for freedom, raise more hell, and don't forget to laugh, too." – Anthony Zurcher, 2007

Shrub

Sadly, Molly Ivins passed away earlier this week after a long battle with breast cancer.  The Shrub author was famous for her unique ability to blend serious political topics with both wit and humor, reminding us constantly that the world of politics is absurd.  Never was this done better than in her best-selling book, Shrub, as she chronicled the political career of President George W. Bush. Shrub is a must read for anyone interested in the Bush Administration or political discourse.

Love by E.E. Cummings

Want to spice up your Valentines Day this year?  Try words.  Not just any words, words that dance down the page, as only E.E. Cummings can do it. "May I touch said he / how much said she / a lot said he / why not said she…"  Some say Cummings writes like love feels.  And there’s no better example of that than in Love, a collection of Cummings poems, with photographs by Christopher Myers.
