Downeast:  Five Maine Girls and the Unseen Story of Rural America by Gigi Georges “Through the gripping sagas of five young women, Georges not only unsparingly documents rural poverty, joblessness, and opioid addiction, but details how so many people in the rural community have nonetheless kept right on coping, hoping and caring for each other  through grit, goodness, and faith.  Here is the whole truth about America’s rural towns and cities.” —John Delulio—

Beneficence by Meredith Hall
Beneficence is amazing in its vision.  Luminous.  With wisdom and compassion, Hall writes about the capacity for atonement.  Beneficence, then.  Goodness.  Generosity to see deeply, to live through fear and pain on your journey toward the awareness of splendor.” —Ursula Hegi—
