Book excerpt: The big design surveys of the past few years tend to have two things in common: a lot of creative design and very few women designers. Dish is here to set the record straight. This exciting collection features new work by over forty emerging and established female designers from over fifteen countries. The innovative, cutting-edge work in Dish provides a fresh take on current trends in product design for the home, including furniture, ceramics, glassware, lighting, and textiles. Works range from Monica Nicoletti's "Place Holders" moving boxes that serve as transitional furniture to Matali Crasset's "Phytolab" that combines plants and plastic in a bathroom project. They explore materials, from Sara Unruh's chemically treated silk fabric to Anette Hermann's rubber and metal chair, in which the user becomes part of the construction. Each designer is featured with examples of her work, biographical information, and a personal statement that encapsulates her approach. A foreword by Susan Yelavich and essays by experts in making, selling, and critiquing contemporary design offer insights into the conceptual, aesthetic, functional, and political nature of the work. All together, this book dishes out the hottest work around.

Book excerpt: Erotic Thriller. The girl is barely twenty-two, taking a shortcut through the barrens of the Arizona desert, when the men force her off the road and Bev is taken into the woods. After being gang-raped, she lies naked in the dirt; the men show her the hook, and reality descends. This is more than a sexual assault! Once the steel slithers through, Bev swings head down and is hoisted into the pine boughs, becoming Victim No.7 in Boyko's murder book. Officer Taz Azaria recognizes something in the girl's photograph no man police force ever could: Bev is a sister, and someone is killing lesbians! Taz vows revenge. All indications point to the Brothers Zion, a cult of religious zealots who act outside the realm of the law. They occupy a compound in the desert and are led by their spiritual leader who believes in polygamy. A girl escapes this tyranny; graduates from school, finds a job, makes a life for herself. Can the girl forgive? Forget? No. Thus, a sinner returns to the Brethren to reek her own brand of justice.
