Tokyo, 2017Weeks from a birthday that will see her older than her mother ever was, Antoinette seeks two answers: One-how to explain her Master's thesis on light as memory.And two-was her mother's death an accident or a suicide?Then a long-lost pen-pal returns to her life, propelling her closer to the truth.Kyou, the top star of a gender-bending nabe bar, would sooner die than move into management. She needs an out, she needs cash and, most importantly, she needs an identity. As an unregistered mukoseki, she is a legal anomaly.Officially, Kyou doesn't exist.Their searches for identity intertwine with the lives of a video-game obsessed businessman and a writer who refuses to speak. Across Japan and down to New Zealand, from neon-lit alleys to tiny islands, their journey towards the truth is as tangled as their pasts.Fact and fable blur together in a rich tapestry that ultimately explores what it is to be human.For fans of Ruth Ozeki's A Tale for the Time Being and Ali Smith's How to be Both, Jade du Preez's Outsider is a rich, engrossing study in art, culture, identity and the complexity of being human.

The Nauvoo Expositor was a key factor in the death of the Mormon prophet, Joseph Smith and his brother, Hyrum Smith. It was started and compiled by one of Joseph's own first presidency, William Law, among others. He and his fellows disagreed with polygamy and began trying to expose Joseph's many misdeeds regarding polygamy and his abuse of power. So they published the Nauvoo Expositor; one issue and one issue only. Joseph Smith, mayor of Nauvoo, deemed the newspaper a public nuisance, and insisted it be destroyed. The print office was sacked, the pages burned, the type smashed. This denunciation of the American right to free speech was not taken lightly by his countrymen. Within the month, Joseph Smith was in Carthage jail and a mob saw to his death. But most members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints have never even heard of the Nauvoo Expositor, let alone read it. Now, in paperback format, edited only for readability, the Nauvoo Expositor is available to all.

"This book contains a true account of the origin of the Book of Mormon; a sketch of the history, experience, and ministry of Elder William Smith; the story of the golden plates from which the Book of Mormon was translated; and account of the angelic visit to Joseph Smith, by which means the ancient Nephite records were found and by him translated; and account of the most extraordinary miracle, wrought by the laying on of the hands of the elders of the church, and a statement of the principles and doctrines as believed and taught by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, with other matters of great interest to all believers in Christianity." - William Smith
