Death takes me / by Rivera Garza, Cristina,1964-author.(CARDINAL)683814; Myers, Robin,1987-translator.(CARDINAL)631263; Booker, Sarah,translator.(CARDINAL)416267;
"A city is always a cemetery. When a professor named Cristina Rivera Garza stumbles upon the corpse of a man in a dark alley, she finds a stark warning scrawled on the brick wall beside the body, written in coral nail polish: "Beware of me, my love / beware of the silent woman in the desert." After reporting the crime to the police, the professor becomes the lead informant of the case, led by a detective with a newfound obsession with poetry and a long list of failures on her back. But what has the professor really seen? As more bodies of men are found across the city, the detective tries to decipher the meaning of the poems, and if they are facing a darker stream of violence spreading throughout the city. Death Takes Me is a thrilling masterpiece of literary fiction that flips the traditional crime narrative on its head, in a world where death is rampant and violence is gendered. Written in sentences as sharp as the cuts on the bodies of the victims - a word which, in Spanish, is always feminine - Death Takes Me unfolds with the charged logic of a dream, moving from the professor's classroom into the slippery worlds of Latin American poetry and art, as it explores with masterful imagination the unstable terrains of desire and sexuality"--

Pleading out : how plea bargaining creates a permanent criminal class / by Canon, Dan,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction -- Brahmins, bargains, and bootmakers -- The ordinary men standing around -- The vital force of progress -- The rise of the criminal class -- Tense, uncertain, and rapidly evolving -- A finger on the scales -- Lucy and Ethel's conveyor belt -- The weakest defense -- Affluenza -- Conditions, coercions, and castrations -- For the sake of expediency -- Spare the rod, spoil the trial -- Greater than their hoarded gold."Law professor and civil rights lawyer Dan Canon argues that an astounding 97 percent of cases in the United States are disposed of quickly and quietly with plea deals, rather than the jury trials most of us envision. Over the last 200 years, the criminaljustice system has come to prioritize speed and volume above all else. The central question our courts ask is not whether justice is being done, but how they can more efficiently herd bodies through a reductive, inadequate, inhuman process. The result isa massive underclass of people who are restricted from voting, working, and otherwise participating in society. Pleading Out exposes the ugly truth about what's wrong with America's criminal justice system today-and provides a starting point for fixing it"--
