Jeff Lindsay - Dexter is Delicious
Art, Poetry, and Books
Dexter Morgan has always lived a happy homicidal life. He keeps his dark urges in check by adhering to one steadfast rule . . . he only kills very bad people. But now Dexter is experiencing some major life changes—don’t we all?—and they’re mostly wrapped up in the eight-pound curiosity that is his newborn daughter. Family bliss is cut short, however, when Dexter is summoned to investigate the disappearance of a seventeen-year-old girl who has been running with a bizarre group of goths who fancy themselves to be vampires. As Dexter gets closer to the truth of what happened to the missing girl, he realizes they are not really vampires so much as cannibals. And, most disturbing . . . these people have decided they would really like to eat Dexter.
Jeff Lindsay’s bestselling, dark, ironic, and oftentimes laugh-out-loud hilarious novels about the lovable serial killer with no soul (but a redeeming desire to kill only people who deserve it) have gained a legion of fans and assumed a place in our culture. (Doub…

Meet Author Edward J. Neyra- Cuba: Lost & Found
Art, Poetry, and Books
In 1962, eleven-year-old Eduardo Neyra fled Cuba without his parents as part of the clandestine Operation Pedro Pan, an underground network that helped airlift over 14,000 Cuban children to safety in the United States. Suddenly a foreigner thrust into a new world and faced with new customs and a new language, it would be years before Ed saw his mother and father again. Cuba Lost and Found (Clerisy Press, $24) is a moving and insightful true-life narrative capturing the political and cultural upheaval before and after Castro’s Revolution, from Ed’s carefree early years on the white sand of Varadero Beach, through his struggles to find a place in his new country, to his hard-won achievement of the American Dream. At the heart of this life is a powerful Horatio Alger story but also a soul-seeking journey of personal identity.
