money as a street trader, Mohammed seizes an opportunity to
study in Pakistan. One Friday in Karachi, Mohammed is
detained during a raid on his local mosque. After being
beaten and interrogated, he is sold to the American
government by the Pakistani forces as a member of Al-Qaida
with links to Osama Bin Laden, but Mohammed has heard of
neither. The Americans fly him first to Kandahar and then
to Guantánamo Bay. -- Historical genre, about the 'War on

Pretending is Lying / Dominique Goblet ; translated by Sophie
Yanow in collaboration with the author. -- New York : New

cm. -- Translation of: Faire Semblant c'est Mentir. --
Summary (from p ublisher via OCLC): "Pretending Is Lying is
a memoir unlike any other. The first book to appear in
English by the acclaimed Belgian artist Dominique Goblet,
it is at once an intimate account of love and familial
dysfunction and an audacious experimen tin graphic
storytelling. In a series of dazzling fragments--skipping
through time, and from raw, slashing color to delicate
black and white--Goblet examines the most important
relationships in her life: with her partner, Guy-Marc; with
her daughter, Nikita; with her alcoholic, well-meaning
father; and with her abusive mother. More than a decade in
the making, the result is an unnerving comedy of paternal
dysfunction, an achingly ambivalent love story (with asides
on the Beach Boys), and a searing account of childhood
trauma--a dizzying, unforgettable view of a life in
progress and a tour de force of the art of comics". --

(from OCLC): On Ju ly 16th, 1945, the first test of the
atomic bomb should have set in motion the end of World War
II. It should have ushered in a new age of global
technological advancement. And, it should have presented us
with one of the greatest moral dilemmas in human history.
But in The Last West, the bomb fails. And a far greater
catastrophe occurs. All scientific and technological
progress ceases. Artistic, cultural, and social
advancements disappear. World War II continues, unending.
For sixty years every thing slowly crumbles and fades,
until an astounding discovery is made. The missing element
on July 16th was a man, a man named Stephen West. And he
may be the key to reigniting the world. -- Science fiction

Manuelito : a Graphic Novel / written by Elisa Amado ;
illustrated by Abraham Urias. -- Toronto : Annick Press,
2019. -- 91 p. : ill. ; 25 cm. -- Summary (from publisher
via OCLC): "The powerful story of a child refugee seeking
asylum in America. Thirteen-year-old Manuelito is a gentle
boy who lives with his family in a tiny village in the
Guatemalan countryside. But life is far from idyllic:
PACs--armed civil patrol--are a constant presence in the
streets, and terrifying memories of the country's war
linger in the villagers' collective conscience. Things
deteriorate further when government-backed drug gangs
arrive and take control of the village. Fearing their son
will be forced to join a gang, Manuelito's parents make the
desperate decision to send him to live with his aunt in
America. With just a bus ticket and a small amount of cash
in hand, Manuelito begins his hazardous journey to Mexico,
then the U.S., in search of asylum. But in the end, dangers
such as the crooked "coyote"--Or human smuggler--his
parents have entrusted their son's life to may be nothing
compared to the risks Manuelito faces when he finally
reaches America. Manuelito's titular character is just one
of the staggering one hundred thousand children from the
Northern Triangle of Central America--Guatemala, El
Salvador, and Honduras--who have made this perilous journey
to escape their war-torn countries. Many are now detained
in Mexico, separated from their parents and without access
to lawyers, facing the unthinkable prospect of being sent
back to the homes and danger they risked so much to escape.
Drawing on years of experience working with child refugees
like Manuelito, Elisa Amado's powerful story, illustrated
with striking poignancy by Abraham Urias, brings to light
the dire circumstances of so many children, so close to
home." -- Call no.: PN6727.U72 M3 2019

fine buck which he killed with his hands. He began
searching for a way out of the thorn forest. Hearing a
strange sound, he discovered a woman, fighting off a horde
of tiny warriors who rode small, well-trained antelope. The
tiny warriors earned his admiration for throwing themselves
against the woman so many times their size. Then he
realized they were attempting to free one of their own,
which she held aloft. When he revealed himself, the hoard
