Trish Shallowman just wants her divorce but Curtis, her soon to be ex-husband, has already proven that he's willing to kill to maintain the sanctity of their marriage. Thanks to Curtis's sudden sense of homicidal devotion, Trish's grandfather is dead and Addison is in the hospital having a bullet dug out of his chest. Now David, the only guy Trish really trusts, is dividing his time between trying to keep Trish alive and figuring out what to do with the million dollars in stolen jewelry that Trish's grandfather kept hidden in his house for the last 30 years. Trish is pretty sure someone's body is going to wind up buried in the depths of the swamp before she actually makes it to her final divorce court date. She's just not sure whether the corpse in question will be hers or her ex's.

Written in a funny, charming, and conversational style, Word Origins is the first book to offer a thorough investigation of the history and the science of etymology, making this little-known field accessible to everyone interested in the history of words. Anatoly Liberman, an internationally acclaimed etymologist, takes the reader by the hand and explains the many ways that English words can be made, and the many ways in which etymologists try to unearth the origins of words. Every chapter is packed with dozens of examples of proven word histories, used to illustrate the correct ways to trace the origins of words as well as some of the egregiously bad ways to trace them. He not only tells the known origins of hundreds of words, but also shows how their origins were determined. And along the way, the reader is treated to a wealth of fascinating word facts. Did they once have bells in a belfry? No, the original meaning of belfry was siege tower. Are the words isle and island, raven and ravenous, or pan and pantry related etymologically? No, though they look strikingly similar, these words came to English via different routes. Partly a history, partly a how-to, and completely entertaining, Word Origins invites readers behind the scenes to watch an etymologist at work.

Winner, Trillium Book Award In Téa Mutonji’s disarming debut story collection, a woman contemplates her Congolese traditions during a family wedding, a teenage girl looks for happiness inside a pack of cigarettes, a mother reconnects with her daughter through their shared interest in fish, and a young woman decides on shaving her head in the waiting room of an abortion clinic. These punchy, sharply observed stories blur the lines between longing and choosing, exploring the narrator’s experience as an involuntary one. Tinged with pathos and humor, they interrogate the moments in which femininity, womanness, and identity are not only questioned but also imposed. Shut Up You’re Pretty is the first book to be published under VS.
