Poetry as Insurgent Art by Lawrence Ferlenghetti
Some of you remember Ferlenghetti for his work with beat poets like Ginsberg ("Howl," anyone?) but he is a poet in his own right - and he has continued to add to this classic book. It is hard to imagine a more challenging, provoking, reactionary set of poems.
The Penalty by Mal Peet - in this middle-school age book, a teenage soccer prodigy disappears in San Juan, right after missing a penalty kick and losing a big game. A mystery combining suspense and soccer.
Disguised: a Wartime Memoir by Rita la Fontaine de Clercq Zubli
Rita recounts being hidden as a 12 year old boy when the Japanese invade her Indonesian island in 1942. It was that or be forced into a life as a "comfort woman." This remarkable memoir covers the entire 3 years she spent in the prison camps.
