Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Bath Thoughts from Berkeley is a three-part novel that spans the years from World War I to the Millennium through the eyes of two sisters who come of age in Berkeley, California in the rich and turbulent '60s. The intimate lives of the sisters, their families, and their friends are woven into historical events and cultural trends of the half century, particularly the space race, the civil rights movement, political campaigns, and the various wars of the time, as well as music and literature of the period.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Like all nearly 12 year-olds on Eganatia Jatob faces going to the Graining; a six-week time of experiencing each of the five genders on Eganatia to prepare it to make its choice of what gender it wants to be on its 12th birthday. But Jatob fears it will be unable to make a gender choice when the time comes to make one, and worries about what will happen if it changes its mind later in life and wants a different gender. Will it be sent away from the Natia to live with the outcasts of Eganatia; those lost souls who never fit in? And what will its parents say about Jatob's choice, or lack of choice? Will they cast it from their family forever? At the Graining Jatob discovers special abilities to play in and learn from "the lights," which help to make its gender choice more clear, but also teaches it about its role in re-uniting the people of Eganatia.
