Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2020Hiding in Plain Sight: The Invention of Donald Trump and the Erosion of America
The Invention of Donald Trump and the Erosion of America
by Sarah Kendzior
Instant New York Times BestsellerWashington Post BestsellerUSA Today BestsellerIndie Bound BestsellerAuthors Round the South BestsellerMidwest Indie BestsellerNew York Times bestselling author Sarah Kendzior documents the truth about the calculated rise to power of Donald Trump since the 1980s and how the erosion of our liberties made an American demagogue possible.The story of Donald Trump’s rise to power is the story of a buried American history – buried because people in power liked it that way. It was visible without being seen, influential without being named, ubiquitous without being overt.Sarah Kendzior’s Hiding in Plain Sight pulls back the veil on a history spanning decades, a history of an American autocrat in the making. In doing so, she reveals the inherent fragility of American democracy – how our continual loss of freedom, the rise of consolidated corruption, and the secrets behind a burgeoning autocratic United States have been hiding in plain sight for decades.In Kendzior’s signature and celebrated style, she expertly outlines Trump’s meteoric rise from the 1980s until today, interlinking key moments of his life with the degradation of the American political system and the continual erosion of our civil liberties by foreign powers. Kendzior also offers a never-before-seen look at her lifelong tendency to be in the wrong place at the wrong time – living in New York through 9/11 and in St. Louis during the Ferguson uprising, and researching media and authoritarianism when Trump emerged using the same tactics as the post-Soviet dictatorships she had long studied.It is a terrible feeling to sense a threat coming, but it is worse when we let apathy, doubt, and fear prevent us from preparing ourselves. Hiding in Plain Sight confronts the injustice we have too long ignored because the truth is the only way forward

The Architecture of Love
by Ika Natassa
Every person has at least one secret that will break your heart. For some, it might be their past. For some others, it might be their reasons. And for Raia and River in The Architecture of Love, it was both. Raia, an Indonesian bestselling author, could no longer write a single sentence after her muse, her husband, left her. In despair, she fled to New York, hoping that the city often sees as beacon of hope could be the place where she can rebuild herself as writer and as woman. River, a talented architect, fled to New York for the noise. The chaos of the city was the only thing that would cover up the noise of the last three years that always haunted him. The voices echoing in his head calling him a murderer, the killer of his own wife. A chance encounter at a New Year's Eve party led to an unusual friendship between them, as they stroll around the city every day, bonded by loneliness, evermore confined by their secrets, until their hearts start wanting for more only to find that the past could never let them go. Through The Architecture of Love, a tale of two strangers and two broken souls in search for answers, Ika Natassa offers a genuine look into the urban society of Indonesia.
