Book excerpt: "A reminder that even the smallest newspapers can hold the most powerful among us accountable."—The New York Times Book Review Watch the documentary Storm Lake on PBS. Iowa plays an outsize role in national politics. Iowa introduced Barack Obama and voted bigly for Donald Trump. But is it a bellwether for America, a harbinger of its future? Art Cullen’s answer is complicated and honest. In truth, Iowa is losing ground. The Trump trade wars are hammering farmers and manufacturers. Health insurance premiums and drug prices are soaring. That’s what Iowans are dealing with, and the problems they face are the problems of the heartland. In this candid and timely book, Art Cullen—the Storm Lake Times newspaperman who won a Pulitzer Prize for taking on big corporate agri-industry and its poisoning of local rivers—describes how the heartland has changed dramatically over his career. In a story where politics, agriculture, the environment, and immigration all converge, Cullen offers an unsentimental ode to rural America and to the resilient people of a vibrant community of fifteen thousand in Northwest Iowa, as much survivors as their town.

In my first awakening, I disassociated from my parents. My first husband cheated on me. My second husband carried on long affairs over the course of 15 years and told me he regretted ever bringing a child into the world with me. I had convinced myself that I wasn't fit to be a mother, a spouse, or a daughter. Other than being a good accountant, I could find no value within myself to offer the world. I would spend the next year of my life clawing my way out of the darkness, desperate to find any glimmer of light that would offer hope. Hope that I wasn't worthless. Hope that I was worthy of love. Hope that the world was not the dark and terrifying place that I had again grown to believe it to be. As dark as those days were, they did not last forever. I learned some very hard lessons and eventually found myself not only surrounded by love and light, but I also learned that I myself was a light all along. In this book I share my story with you. I share in painful and sometimes humorous detail how the darkness crept in and almost swallowed me whole. You'll find, however, that my story has a happy ending and some beautiful lessons that might just bring a little light to your world as well.

By day he’s frozen in a stone skin as a statue of a shepherd boy. As soon as the sun sets he’s free to roam the park, ravenously hungry. He’s a troll, and the food he seeks is human memories. But somehow he’s yearning for something more than an endless cycle of hunting and loneliness. Then he meets Stella, who has just moved to live with her grandfather in a house neighbouring the park. Her mind is sharp and quick and there’s something so different about her — she’s the only human Seth has met whose memories make his insides burn. He doesn’t want to feed off her. He simply wants to talk to her. Maybe she can help him find another way to live? Engrossing, spine-chilling and surprising, this is a novel that grabs the reader and holds them spellbound. What terrible memory is Stella trying to escape? What are the fragments of memory that Seth is trying to put together? And is there any possibility that Seth could escape the lonely garden and start truly living?
