The Island of Bicycle Dancers $3.98 This is the coming-of-age story of twenty-year old Yurika Song, a Korean-Japanese woman who comes from Japan to New York City for a summer to work with her Korean relatives and improve her English. Yurika’s friends back home have always joked that she is half-sushi/half kim-chi. But cross-Asian ethnicities turn out to be far less jarring than her entree into New York life in the guise of bicycle messengers and the street culture in which they thrive.On one level this is a tale of mistaken love–Yurika falls hard for an attractive, but dangerous, Puerto Rican bicycle messenger nicknamed "Bone." But on another, deeper level, our heroine finds freedom in this new language, which to her "is like a huge octopus, very clever and sometimes hard to catch." |

Cape Perdido $3.98 The critically acclaimed author of the Sharon McCone series delivers a rivetingnew mystery about a small town pitted against a foreign corporation. At the northernmost point of Soledad County lies Cape Perdido-once a lumber town, now a getaway for tourists and outdoor recreationists. But when the water harvesting plans of a North Carolina company threaten the residents’ livelihoods, four people get caught up in the fight to save the town: Jessie Domingo, a community liaison specialist from New York City; Joseph Openshaw, an environmentalist forced to face ghosts of his past; Steph Pace, a restaurateur and former love of Openshaw’s who must confront the same ghosts; and Timothy McNear, a former lumber mill owner who harbors secrets of his own. The arrival of the ‘waterbaggers’ will drive otherwise peaceful people to desperate acts, and a dramatic series of events-including a sniper’s bullet, a midnight inferno, and an abduction-will awaken the residents of Cape Perdido to unsavory truths about their town and each other. |

Bicycle! $15.48 At their finest hours, bikes exist on a level above mere machines, and there’s no reason the joy should end when the ride is over. Bicycle!, written by a working bicycle mechanic, covers -everything you need to know to feed and care for your own swank, two-wheeled ride. This book cuts through the obtuse techno-speak and delivers maintenance clarity with a touch of humor and radicalism while categorically denying mechanics’ supposed dreariness. Bicycle! is about encouraging society to learn for themselves how to make their bikes work, not because they have to, but because they want to. With detailed descriptions of all maintenance tasks and repair situations, clearly illustrated with photographs and drawings, this guide will serve the need for a serious rider’s manual. Professional bicycle workers-messengers, mechanics, pedicab drivers-as well as bicycle commuters have been waiting for this book. Sam Tracy writes about bikes from a practiced Midwestern perspective. He began producing the ‘zine Biker Pride at some point in the early 1990s, after being fired from the college newspaper for violating its objectivity rules, and this project was later broadened just enough to become the urban cycling-focused Multiplier ‘zine. Having biked through the last 15 snowy winters in Minneapolis, including five as a messenger, Tracy is currently enjoying the warmer weather while wrenching on bikes in San Francisco. |
