On Bittersweet Place is the powerful coming-of-age story of Lena Czernitski, a young Russian Jew whose family flees their homeland in the Ukraine after the October Revolution. The story unfolds in Chicago during the Jazz Age of the 1920 s, where Lena s impoverished family has settled and where she must traverse the early years of adolescence. Lena s new world is large and beautiful and full of promise, but it is also cold and unwelcoming and laden with danger. Ronna Wineberg delivers a moving, universal story of family, self-discovery, young love, and the always relevant experience of the immigrant, the refugee, the outsider struggling to create a new home and a better life in an unfamiliar place.

There's a long silence. "Zach?" "Yeah?" "Are you going to make me say it first?" There's another pause and, 'if he says "say what?" I'll just die', Daniel thinks. "I've wanted to say it for a while," says Zach. Daniel breathes again. "Let's say it together, then nobody has to be first." "Okay. Yeah. Ready?" "Ready." "I love you," they say. And they lie very still, waiting for the sky to fall. Daniel Sylvan and Zach Graham come to Chicago to find new lives; Zach from England and Daniel from New Orleans. Each has dark secrets in his past that he would rather forget, but both young men learn that there is no future without the past; that trying to bury old pain only leads to new pain. Difficult as it may be, the past must be faced before they can grow. Daniel and Zach must find the courage to grow ... together. BIttersweet Place is about their first year together, a year of changes and challenges, pain and joy, and a growing commitment to one another and to the difficult decisions they must make. Bittersweet Place is both romance and erotica. The sex is explicit and hot as hell but, as Zach says, "no matter how wild and dirty we get, we're always making love". Leigh Carroll, a native Chicagoan, tells Zach and Daniel's story with humor and authenticity. In Bittersweet Place the reader will meet not only two extraordinary young men, but also a very special place: Chicago's Boystown, its history and its vibrant, breathing life.

Loss and impermanence are inescapable, part of the warp and weft of our lives. They are essential to love, to growth, and to art. And yet, too often, we do not acknowledge loss, let alone honour the experience of it. Illuminating, thoughtful, and deeply necessary, Susan Cain's new book will help us to name and value the experience of loss, pointing the way toward ways of being and rituals that help us to accept it rather than bury it. Blending memoir, reportage, and social science, it will reveal that joy and loss exist in equilibrium; that vulnerability, or even a melancholy temperament, can be a strength; and that embracing our inevitable losses makes us more human and more whole.
