What do you think about imagining a crew of pirates that never break the law or impose themselves on others? It is not easy to do. I believe that is how the staff at Caversham could be described if we had no choice but to describe ourselves. It is a tough description to submit as it doesn't make an ounce of sense. It is, nevertheless, the one that feels right to me. We do impose a little, though, as we send out newsletters. So there's that. Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
How does such a weird group operate? I am not sure I can explain it but what I can tell you is that Joe is back. He is the owner and manager of Caversham and he is one of a kind. A gentle soul ruled by compassion and an impeccable memory for detail. Joe had a good vacation and he is back to his corollary of a Jack Sparrow post. Though he is one of a kind he is not the only J here at Caversham. Janet is the other J. Without Janet we would have no financial accountability or awareness. I am told such things are essential for a successful business. I have seen no evidence to support a contrary view. Karl is also here. He does most of the ordering and all of the IT. He does so many other things that to list them would inflame my tendons. Noah is in charge of textbooks and children's books and he also does a beautiful job of the children and teen related newsletter. If you chat with him long enough he may build you a new home out of a single piece of wood. It may happen. Ben! Ben also works here and he is often the one you might speak to if you pop in or call. He is an extraordinary gentleman. I didn't mean to say all this stuff. I just meant to say "Welcome home Joe and Veronika!". I got carried away. Ok, hugs.

Making Love with the Land
Joshua Whitehead

In the last few years, following the publication of his debut novel Jonny Appleseed, Joshua Whitehead has emerged as one of the most exciting and important new voices on Turtle Island. Now, in this first non-fiction work, Whitehead brilliantly explores Indigeneity, queerness, and the relationships between body, language and land through a variety of genres (essay, memoir, notes, confession). Making Love with the Land is a startling, heartwrenching look at what it means to live as a queer Indigenous person "in the rupture" between identities. [More. . .]

Life in the City of Dirty Water: A Memoir of Healing
Clayton Thomas-Muller

There have been many Clayton Thomas-Mullers: The child who played with toy planes as an escape from domestic and sexual abuse, enduring the intergenerational trauma of Canada's residential school system; the angry youngster who defended himself with fists and sharp wit against racism and violence, at school and on the streets of Winnipeg and small-town British Columbia; the tough teenager who, at 17, managed a drug house run by members of his family, and slipped in and out of juvie, operating in a world of violence and pain.
