Occupants: Photographs and Writings


Henry Rollins - 2011
    Though he’s known for the raw power of his expression, Rollins has shown that the greatest statements can be made with the simplest of acts: to just bear witness, to be present.             In Occupants, Rollins invites us to do the same. The book pairs Rollins’s visceral full-color photographs—taken in Bangladesh, Burma, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Northern Ireland, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and elsewhere over the last few years—with writings that not only provide context and magnify the impact of the images but also lift them to the level of political commentary. Simply put, this book is a visual testimony of anger, suffering, and resilience. Occupants will help us realize what is so easy to miss when tragedy and terror become numbing, constant forces—the quieter, stronger forces of healing, solidarity, faith, and even joy.

Better Late Than Never: From Barrow Boy to Ballroom


Len Goodman - 2009
    Len Goodman tells all about his new-found fame, his experiences on Strictly Come Dancing, and also on the no.1 US show Dancing with the Stars and his encounters with the likes of Heather Mills-McCartney and John Sergeant. But the real story is in his East End roots. And Len's early life couldn't be more East End. The son of a Bethnal Green costermonger he spent his formative years running the fruit and veg barrow and being bathed at night in the same water Nan used to cook the beetroot. There are echoes of Billy Elliot too. Though Len was a welder in the London Docks, he dreamt of being a professional footballer, and came close to making the grade had he not broken his foot on Hackney Marshes. The doctor recommended ballroom dancing as a light aid to his recovery. And Len, it turned out, was a natural. At first his family and work mates mocked, but soon he had made the final of a national competition and the welders descended en masse to the Albert Hall to cheer him on. With his dance partner, and then wife Cheryl, Len won the British Championships in his late twenties and ballroom dancing became his life. Funny and heart-warming, Len Goodman's autobiography has all the honest East End charm of Tommy Steele, Mike Read or Roberta Taylor.

Simon Wells - 2005

N.A.S 2 (Niggas Ain't Shit 2)


Jessica N. Watkins - 2017
    They lie, cheat, and let you down. Yet, in part one, we learned that Nas was far from simply being a lying, cheating dog. He was a calculating manipulator that single-handedly ruined the lives of everyone around him, simply because of his selfish greed to get money. The only person with enough rage to end Nas’ wrath was his girlfriend of thirteen years, Tabitha. But at what cost will it be? Taking Nas out would cure her pain, but she didn’t realize that while doing so, she was still inflicting more chaos and hurt on herself and her children. Aaliyah finally confessed to Fabe, Nas’ brother, that she is just as much in love with him as he has been with her. She finally walked away from unknowingly being Nas’ side piece. She has given herself to the man that has been pining for her for over a year. But is it too late? Will Fabe choose her or his loyalty to his brother? Jaleesa and Moses’ relationship has been more down than up lately. Jaleesa is beyond tired of his cheating ways as he ignores his responsibility while dream chasing with Nas. Facing a charge that she has gotten because of Moses, she is done with their relationship. But with Moses now pulling through a near death experience, she has a change of heart. She can’t see herself walking away from him after praying that he lived to see another day. Is Jaleesa making the right choice, though? Will Jaleesa finally get her happily ever after, or will Moses continue to be more loyal to the streets than he has been to his woman?
