A Vulture’s Feather by JAMLICK ...
Efrem, a gifted Ethiopian surgeon from the marginalized Beta Israel community, defies prejudice, oppression, and impossible odds to reach the pinnacle of British medical training. Born into a world where his people-derisively called Falashas-face systemic discrimination, state-sponsored persecution, and the brutal grip of a Marxist dictatorship, Efrem's journey is one of resilience, ambition, and unbreakable spirit.
Through famine, political turmoil, and the weight of history, he fights for his place in a world that refuses to recognize the worth. But will his hard-earned success be enough to free him from the past, or will the ghosts of his homeland forever haunt him?
A Vulture's Feather is a powerful tale of survival identity, and the cost of chasing dreams in a world determined to keep you grounded.
Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison
Ellison's blistering and impassioned first novel, winner of the prestigious American National Book Award, tells the extraordinary story of a man who is invisible 'simply because people refuse to see me'. Yet his powerfully depicted adventures - from a terrifying Harlem race riot to his expulsion from a Southern college - go far beyond the story of one man. The lives of countless millions are evoked in this superb portrait of a generation of black Americans.
KITCHEN DEBATE(BANTER ROUND THE ATLAS...
About the Book*
After the horrors of the 1945 war, the housekeeper of a middle-income British family ventured to an international trade fair, eager to modernize their kitchen. The shiny new utensils arrived with fanfare, causing the old, battle-worn ones to grumble with jealousy.
The kitchen quickly turned into a lively battleground. The pots and pans, seasoned from years of service, argued their irreplaceability, while the sleek new utensils boasted efficiency and style. Even the spatulas tried to mediate, flapping uselessly.
Thomas, the housekeeper, caught in this utensil uprising, hadn’t slept well since their arrival. His dreams, filled with animated kitchenware, left him questioning his sanity. "Did that really happen?" he'd wonder while doing chores.
Meanwhile, at the Babatundes, the kitchen became a scene of daily drama. The spatulas sang, the knives debated, and the pots banged in protest. Tensions raged but always found a way to ease, with everyone vying for relevance.
Despite the chaos, Thomas couldn't help but chuckle. The old and new, battered and shiny, all had their place. Maybe the kitchen was big enough for all of them. With a smile, he returned to his chores, grateful for the lively, albeit noisy, new dynamic.

THE QUIET ROOMS HAVE TEETH
This is a story about survival.
Not the kind of survival that makes headlines or wins awards. The quiet kind. The everyday kind. The kind that happens in locked wards and therapy rooms and the space between medication doses.
The kind of survival that asks: Can I make it through one more day?
I wrote this book because I've been there. Not in the exact same circumstances as Sarah or Marcus, but in that space where the system designed to help you becomes the thing hurting you. Where your diagnosis is used as proof that you can't be trusted to tell the truth about your own life. Where love feels impossible because you've been taught you're too broken to deserve it.
This novel is fiction, but the truths within it are real.
Psychiatric patients ARE dismissed, disbelieved, and dehumanized every day.
Institutional abuse DOES happen, often hidden behind clinical language and closed doors.
Mental illness does NOT make someone unreliable, unlovable, or unworthy of dignity.
And being believed—truly, fully believed—CAN change everything.
Sarah and Marcus are fictional characters, but they represent thousands of real people who have been through the mental health system and emerged with stories no one wanted to hear. Stories of abuse disguised as treatment. Of punishment disguised as care. Of isolation disguised as safety.
But also stories of survival. Of finding connection in the darkest places. Of refusing to be silenced. Of fighting back against a system that tried to erase them.
This book is for them. For you, if you've lived this. For anyone who has been told they're too sick, too crazy, too broken to be believed.
The Situationship: #Merky Books’ firs...
A memoir in Verse. Dear Dad and I.
Dear Dad and I is a poetic archive of becoming, son, man, lover, dad. In these pages, you’ll meet a Nabadoon, peacemaker, who trades betrothal for burial. A newborn learning to scream. A whisper of a mother who vanished mid-laugh. From Mandera to Mogadishu, faith to folly, this collection slips between grief and grace with both wit and ache. With reverence for oral storytelling and the irreverence of a prankster soul, these poems refuse to stay in one place. They sing lullabies to daughters and lament lost cities. They wander, remember, weep, and laugh. Above all, they tell the truth the way only poetry can: sideways, softly, and when you're not looking. For readers who’ve ever been a child or still are, ever had a father or have become one, ever lost a home or a mom, or found one in language, this book is for you!
The Portable Karl Marx Edited by Euge...
A collection of essential writings from the influential German philosopher
This ideal introduction to the work of Karl Marx represents his most important writings, including the "Theses on Feuerbach"; the complete Communist Manifesto; and substantial selections from "On the Jewish Question," the "Economic-Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844," The German Ideology, Grundrisse, Capital, and The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte, among others.
In addition, documents, letters, and reminiscences offer a portrait of Marx the man—as student, husband, father, enemy, and friend. As Eugene Kamenka writes in his introduction, "This volume, perhaps more so than other Marx anthologies, attempts to present the man with his individual scars, to provide the material for an understanding of Marx himself." Kamenka also includes a chronology of Marx's life and work, a reader's guide to special terms, and an explanatory index.
