ALL FALL DOWN L.A. was once the City of Angels, but that was before the Great Quake came and shattered everything about her that was civilized. In the aftermath, two new cities grew up from the rubble-one of gleaming towers and untold luxury for the haves, and one of barbed wire and grinding misery for the have-nots. Ringed by high walls and merciless guards, New Angeles is now an island of wealth in a sea of poverty. Outside its borders, a new generation of Angelenos fights for scraps in the rubble while trying desperately to find a way through the fences. Inside, the privileged few have refined their brutality and fused it with old Hollywood’s greatest invention: celebrity culture. Broadcast in ultra-high definition, biomechanically enhanced gladiators known as Suiciders battle to the death in high-tech arenas. Their duels are a visceral reminder to the world of the power wielded by New Angeles’ corporate masters. For rich and poor alike, the Suiciders are legends. But like the city they inhabit, their glory is built on a graveyard-and as those bodies rot, the foundations they carry threaten to crack and splinter back into chaos. Collects SUICIDERS #1-6 and SUICIDERS: KINGS OF HELL.A. #1-6.

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

THE STORY: An Army general and his wife have committed a ritual double suicide during a Halloween party in the officers' club at Schofield Barracks, and now an official court of inquiry has been convened to investigate their shocking, and apparently senseless act. Those present at the affair and others who knew the general and his wife well are called to testify and, as tension mounts, a remarkable and compassionate portrait of the dead couple emerges-and, with it, a shattering awareness of the significance of their deed. Each character, in his testimony, contributes yet another insight, another piece of the mosaic, until the suicide is finally revealed and understood as an act of expiatory self-sacrifice, and a profound statement about war and killing and the responsibility of the individual. In the final essence, the play becomes not only an intense and moving emotional experience and a powerful evocation of the troubled conscience of contemporary America but also a stirring call to all of good will to reawaken their sense of responsibility for the moral and political actions of their country.

First published in 1993, The Virgin Suicides announced the arrival of a major new American novelist. In a quiet suburb of Detroit, the five Lisbon sisters—beautiful, eccentric, and obsessively watched by the neighborhood boys—commit suicide one by one over the course of a single year. As the boys observe them from afar, transfixed, they piece together the mystery of the family’s fatal melancholy, in this hypnotic and unforgettable novel of adolescent love, disquiet, and death. Jeffrey Eugenides evokes the emotions of youth with haunting sensitivity and dark humor and creates a coming-of-age story unlike any of our time. Adapted into a critically acclaimed film by Sofia Coppola, The Virgin Suicides is a modern classic, a lyrical and timeless tale of sex and suicide that transforms and mythologizes suburban middle-American life.
