Para combatir su insomnio, corre hasta que ni siquiera puede pensar, y por la mañana vuelve a la misma rutina de cada día: las clases aburridísimas, el charloteo odioso de su mejor amiga... y la pequeña pero molesta sospecha de que hay algo más en la vida que los exámenes. Marshall Holt no tiene nada que perder. Se pasa las noches bebiendo y fumando. Y aunque corre el riesgo de no graduarse, no le importa. Total, él no es nadie.

Cuando sale el sol, nada en su vida vuelve a ser lo mismo. Ahora tendrá que decidir si vale la pena arriesgarlo todo en el mundo real por un chico que tal vez solo exista en sus sueños.

Silence and Sacrifice: Family Stories of Care and the Limits of Love in Vietnam
by Merav ShohetHow do families remain close when turbulent forces threaten to tear them apart? In this groundbreaking book based on more than a decade of research set in Vietnam, Merav Shohet explores what happens across generations to families that survive imperialism, war, and massive political and economic upheaval. Placing personal sacrifice at the center of her story, Shohet recounts vivid experiences of conflict, love, and loss. In doing so, her work challenges the idea that sacrifice is merely a blood-filled religious ritual or patriotic act. Today, domestic sacrifices—made largely by women—precariously knot family members together by silencing suffering and naturalizing cross-cutting gender, age, class, and political hierarchies. In rethinking ordinary ethics, this intimate ethnography reveals how quotidian acts of sacrifice help family members forge a sense of continuity in the face of trauma and decades of dramatic change.

Silent Agreements: How to Free Your Relationships of Unspoken Expectations
by Linda D. Anderson Sonia R. Banks Michele L. OwensSilent Agreements will help readers define the unspoken beliefs and expectations that might be causing dissatisfaction, unhappiness, and resentment in their relationships, giving them the tools to explore these agreements and work toward healthier communication with a partner, friend, boss, or family member.If you have relationships, you've likely been part of silent agreements. Silent agreements are the implicit "rules" of your relationships that arise from unspoken beliefs and expectations that both parties hold, stemming from your earliest experiences and reinforced as you mature. They can sound something like "The person who makes more money should pay for the dates," or "My boss doesn't offer me a raise, and he knows I won't ask for one." These agreements can hinder your relationships, remaining undiscussed due to fear, aversion to conflict, feelings of obligation, or guilt. Because expectations so rarely line up and neither person will address the issue, a silent agreement can cause unhappiness and resentment on both sides. Clinical psychologists Drs. Anderson, Banks, and Owens will help you explore your agreements and work towards healthier communication with a partner, friend, boss, or family member. In the process, you'll learn more about your own motivations and how to dismantle the the beliefs that don't serve you. With guidelines and advice on how to have productive conversations about sex, money, commitment, family, the workplace, and health, this book will help you lift the silence and resolve those land-mine issues before they do irreparable damage.
