Books by splitShops Never Goin' Back: Healing, Help, and Hope - Paperback
by Maggie Mylie (Author)With a carefree childhood, Maggie's adolescent to teenage years would have but one flaw: her mother. Her remedy to this problem would be found in one perfect man that she met her first year away at college. However, her "home remedy," coupled with her lack of understanding about her mother and her "perfect man," would lead her through the worst life she could have ever imagined for herself and her children. Her pride and selfish ambition would mask the dysfunction for years, until her grown children would rescue her, but not before she had taught all four children how to wear the same masks that she forced herself to wear. This is the true-life story of Maggie and the family curses that would negatively impact her and her children's lives. She assumes that she knows best how to live life at every turn and in every scenario, but can she be convinced that her pride is in the way? That there is a better way to do life? Once freed from the curses, the masks, and the man who holds them both, she continues to selfishly look for ways to satisfy the deepest longings of her heart...until her life intersects with a woman twenty years her senior, but not a day older in vitality and passion for life. Maggie is drawn to this mentor who adopts her as her own and endearingly refers to herself as her Mocha Mama. Maggie is just one of her hundreds of adopted children. Michelle leads her on a journey to find the most kind, loving, and fulfilling arms that would ever embrace her. It's a journey to wholeness, and she's never goin' back! The honest, open approach Maggie uses depicting her years of mishandling life is both refreshing and riveting. This authentic story of Maggie's demise, rescue, and redirection into an attainable fulfilling life will inspire you.

Books by splitShops Carbondale After Dark And Other Stories: Expanded Edition - Hardcover
by H. B. Koplowitz (Author)From panty raids to riots, "Carbondale After Dark" is a profusely illustrated anthology of history, essays and short stories that chronicles how a sleepy little college town in the Midwest became a hippie haven and radical outpost during the 1960s and '70s. Some call that Carbondale's golden age, while others say it was the city's hippie phase. Either way, it left a mark on the town and those who went through those tumultuous times, and it remains a period of interest to those who came after.First published in 1982, the book has become a touchstone for those who were there, and a revelation for those who were not. Author H.B. Koplowitz provides a blow-by-blow account of the political and cultural upheavals that led to the May 1970 riots in Carbondale, and how protests evolved into street parties and a massive Halloween celebration.The first third of the book focuses on the notorious downtown "strip" during the 1960s and '70s, when Carbondale was invaded by hippies, freaks, massive protests and even more massive street parties. It also chronicles streakers, bands, bars, hangouts, protest movements and street people, and efforts by city and school officials to control the madness. In other words, all the things that get left out of official histories and Chamber of Commerce brochures.Amply illustrated with historic photos and graphics, the anthology also includes period essays and short stories with such titles as "Kidnapped by Jesus Freaks" and "Kid Clyde: An Existentualist's Horror Story"; rants on such subjects as women's lib and "afrophobia"; and a poem of teenage angst, "The Horny Blues."The expanded third edition adds three new stories: "Carbondale Before Dark" describes growing up in Carbondale in the 1950s and early '60s. "Bucky's Dome" is about living in futurist Buckminster Fuller's dome home in the early 1980s. "Ghosts of Carbondale Past" is a reflection on a 2017 reunion concert of 1970s Carbondale bands.Chocked full of history and memories, Carbondale After Dark makes a great gift for anyone who has lived in Carbondale or gone to SIU.

Books by splitShops Y Tu Mamá También: Mythologies of Youth - Hardcover
by Scott L. Baugh (Author)Charting production, distribution, censorship, and reception, this book examines Y Tu Mamá También in its presentation as a journey of self-discoveries. Three young adults enjoy a road trip together in search of a legendary beach. Behind their stories are mythologies of youth, a network of ideas in the film that reflects life outside the theaters. The deceptively complex film leaves the characters and its viewers with, instead of oversimplified and hollow answers, provocative questions and existential concerns. Made independently in Mexico, the film crosses over transnational issues, global markets, and mainstream and alternative aesthetics. It transforms road movie and youth film genres and shows a 'musical, magical' Mexico to the world. This book synthesizes several approaches in order to extensively examine Y Tu Mamá También. Covering the film's production history, its distribution and censorship, and larger industrial, political, and cultural contexts, this book analyzes the too-often overlooked aspects of youthful sexuality alongside figurations of maturity, rites of passage, and covenants--made, broken, and remade--that not only inform representations of identity but also complicate the processes of identity formation themselves.Author BiographyScott L. Baugh is Associate Professor of English and Coordinator for Film & Media Studies at Texas Tech University. He specializes in Latina/o, Latin American, and multicultural cinemas. Recent publications include Latino American Cinema (2012) and Born of Resistance (2015 with Víctor A. Sorell).
