Adjustment day / by Palahniuk, Chuck,author.(CARDINAL)353797;
Politicians have brought the nation to the brink of a third world war in an effort to control the burgeoning population of young males. Working-class men dream of burying the elites. Professors propound theories that offer students only the bleakest future. Into this dyspeptic time, a blue-black book is launched carrying such wisdom as: Imagine there's no God; there is no Heaven or Hell; there is only your son and his son and his son and the world you leave for them -- The weak want you to forgo your destiny just as they've shirked theirs -- A smile is your best bulletproof vest. Are the directives in the Talbott book the secrets to surviving? Or are they something else entirely? When Adjustment Day arrives, it fearlessly makes real the logical conclusion of every separatist fantasy, alternative fact, and conspiracy theory lurking in the American psyche.

Altitude adjustment : a quest for love, home, and meaning in the Tetons / by Baptiste, Mary Beth,1953-author.(CARDINAL)535735;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 257-259)."A recent divorce from a marriage of fifteen years, Mary Elizabeth Baptiste makes the decision to fulfill a life goal to work at Grand Teton National Park. Finally settled in Moose, Wyoming, she begins life anew and attempts to reconcile her past with the wide future ahead of her"--"Aware that her youth is slipping by, Mary Beth Baptiste decides to escape her lackluster, suburban life in coastal Massachusetts to pursue her lifelong dream of being a Rocky Mountain woodswoman. To the horror of her traditional, ethnic family, she divorces her husband of fifteen years, dusts off her wildlife biology degree, and flees to Moose, Wyoming for a job at Grand Teton National Park. In these rugged mountains, unexpected lessons from nature and wildlife guide her journey as she creates a new life for herself. Set against the dramatic backdrop and quirky culture of Jackson Hole, this beautifully written memoir is a thoughtful, often humorous account of a woman's bumbling quest for purpose, redemption, and love through wilderness adventure, solitude, and offbeat human connections."--
