This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A List of Serials in Public Libraries of Chicago and Evanston: Corrected to January, 1901 At its meeting on November 5th, 1896, the Chicago Library Club voted to undertake the compilation of a union list of periodicals in the public libraries of Chicago and Evanston, and subsequently a committee was appointed to edit the work, in consultation with the Executive Committee of the Club. Eighteen libraries, which were thought to possess periodical material useful to scholars, and to be willing to make the same available for their use, were asked to furnish lists of their holdings, and all but three agreed to do so. The Committee greatly regret that the Chicago Historical Society could not, and that the Chicago Law Institute apparently did not care to, join in the work, as they recognize that the value of the compilation is appreciably lessened by the absence of the many historical and legal serials possessed by these two libraries. The determination of the mom of the undertaking, the decision of the many questions of form and other details, and the obtaining of the first lists from the libraries, required much more time than had been anticipated, so that it was not until the spring of 1898 that the work of consolidation and revision could be begun. In the first work of consolidation the Committee had the assistance of some forty members and friends of the Club, whose names are recorded on a later page, and to whom the Club is indebted for much earnest and faithful work. In this connection it should be said that nearly all the work done by the Committee and its assistants has been done by busy people outside of their regular working hours.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book clubs are everywhere these days. And women talk about the clubs they belong to with surprising emotion. But why are the clubs so important to them? And what do the women discuss when they meet? To answer questions like these, Elizabeth Long spent years observing and participating in women's book clubs and interviewing members from different discussion groups. Far from being an isolated activity, she finds reading for club members to be an active and social pursuit, a crucial way for women to reflect creatively on the meaning of their lives and their place in the social order.

Book excerpt: An ex-convict returns to his Chicago community a changed man—but maybe not for the better—in this “vivid, suspenseful, funny, and compassionate novel” (Booklist). One of Booklist’s Top 10 First Novels of the Year One of Roxane Gay’s Top 10 Books of the Year After fourteen years in prison, Gerald “Stew Pot” Reeves, age thirty-one, returns home to live with his mom in Parkland, a black middle-class neighborhood on Chicago’s South Side. The residents are in a tailspin, dreading the arrival of the man they remember as a frightening delinquent. The anxiety only grows when Stew Pot announces that he experienced a religious awakening in prison. Most folks are skeptical, with one notable exception: Mrs. Motley, a widowed retired librarian and the Reeves’ next-door neighbor, who loans Stew Pot a Bible, which is seen by him and many in the community as a friendly gesture. With uncompromising fervor (and with a new pit bull named John the Baptist), Stew Pot soon appoints himself the moral judge of Parkland—and starts wreaking havoc on people’s lives. Before long, tension and suspicion reign, and this close-knit community must reckon with questions of faith, fear, and forgiveness . . . “[A] novel of epiphanies, tragedies, and transformations . . . perfect for book clubs.” —Booklist, starred review “May slowly builds suspense as he persuasively unfolds the narrative in this work that reads like an Agatha Christie mystery.” —Library Journal “A wonderful urban novel full of vitality and pathos and grit.” —Dennis Lehane
