Eartheater by Dolores Reyes (HarperVia)
In this novel, set in a poor barrio of Buenos Aires, the unnamed narrator is a teenage girl who has visions when she eats earth. Her visions entail missing women and children and the truth about their disappearances. Part mystery, part coming-of-age story, it evokes in a powerful way the lives and deaths of the women in her community. A major
bestseller in the author’s native Argentina, it's the basis of a television series on Amazon Prime. Translated from Spanish by Julia Sanches, who provides an informative afterword.

Olmsted Trees by Stanley Greenberg (Hirmer)
Frederick Law Olmsted is the father of landscape architecture in the United States: Manhattan’s Central Park is his most prominent creation.
Olmsted parks are scattered throughout the American East Coast, and even as far west as Milwaukee. Stanley Greenberg spent several years photographing the trees in the parks. This book is a gorgeous collection of black and white photos, almost entirely of the trunks of these old beauties, weathered, scarred treasures. Portraits of elm,
oak, ash: survivors.

PASSPORT - Original Album Series (Warner Music – import)
Jazz-rock needed a shakeup in the ‘70s. It came from Germany. While many of his compatriots were reworking rock, in Passport, veteran saxophonist/bandleader Klaus Doldinger was building on recent electric experiments, employing the new sounds of
synthesizer and Mellotron in bewitching compositions that matched jazz airiness and rock’s economy of scale in a new digital lexicon. This budget package of five early albums begins to soar midway through, when Doldinger minted his ace team of Kristian Schultz (keyboards), Wolfgang
Schmid (bass, guitar) and Curt Cress (drums).

Evil Flowers by Gunnhild Øyehaug
(Farrar, Straus, and Giroux)
From a prize-winning Norwegian writer, this collection of surreal short stories (some very short) is playful but thought provoking. In the opener, a woman who loses part of her brain (it slips into a
toilet bowl) forgets what birds are; too bad she's an ornithologist. It’s a book full of memorable images
and events, and very funny as well. It’s unlike most other stuff you’ll read. Translated from the Norwegian by Kari Dickson who’s translated other of Øyehaug’s writing.

Whole Home Transformation
Whole Home Transformation -
Remodel brings out the best in countryside bungalow Nestled in the woods along a golf course in the countryside community of La Salle, this spacious bungalow seemed—from the outside—to have it all. But the inside told a different story. With a sunken living room, dated materials and finishes, and lack of open space for gatherings, this existing home was stuck in the 1980s. That’s why the new owners turned to Harwood Design Builders to help realize their home’s potential: one that would reflect modern family life in a beautiful and functional way. The homeowners sought to redo the whole interior layout, which involved removing walls, converting the sunken areas, and building a new kitchen addition. To achieve a project of this scale, Harwood Design Builders relied on the following trusted suppliers:
Stephanie Bockstael Design, Fort Rouge Glass, Accord Cabinets,
Windsor Plywood, Viking Masonry, Walmer Mechanical, Eco-Side
Plumbing & Heating
