Book excerpt: Always Up Against It will tell you who the author, Dean Vinka, is, who he was, and who he is becoming. Read closely, but you need not look far to know that he is you and me. Not only enjoying the simple things in life, he sucks the marrow out of them, and puts it on display for us all to see. His life is his art form, the people in it are his characters, his experiences the story. You can be a part of it. The walls of narrow-mindedness, complacency, and conformity are no longer. Unified are spirits afire, breaking through and shining magnificently, so that nothing save the light itself could possibly exist. The feeling is warm, the taste is like honey. Always Up Against It is a unique collection of poems. It is a chemical reaction of thoughts, emotions, and experiences from an individual who speaks on behalf of us all. In a world of struggles against society, conformity, and self, Always Up Against It delivers a refreshingly insightful perspective on the trials of life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining the incisive pen of a newspaperman and the compassionate soul of a poet, Mike Royko became a Chicago institution—in Jimmy Breslin’s words, "the best journalist of his time." Early Royko: Up Against It in Chicago will restore to print the legendary columnist’s earliest writings, which chronicle 1960s Chicago with the moral vision, ironic sense, and razor-sharp voice that would remain Royko’s trademark. This collection of early columns from the Chicago Daily News ranges from witty social commentary to politically astute satire. Some of the pieces are falling-down funny and others are tenderly nostalgic, but all display Royko’s unrivaled skill at using humor to tell truth to power. From machine politicians and gangsters to professional athletes, from well-heeled Chicagoans to down-and-out hoodlums, no one escapes Royko’s penetrating gaze—and resounding judgment. Early Royko features a memorable collection of characters, including such well-known figures as Hugh Hefner, Mayor Richard J. Daley, and Dr. Martin Luther King. But these boldfaced names are juxtaposed with Royko’s beloved lesser knowns from the streets of Chicago: Mrs. Peak, Sylvester "Two-Gun Pete" Washington, and Fats Boylermaker, who gained fame for leaning against a corner light pole from 2 a.m. Saturday until noon Sunday, when his neighborhood tavern reopened for business. Accompanied by a foreword from Rick Kogan, this new edition will delight Royko’s most ardent fans and capture the hearts of a new generation of readers. As Kogan writes, Early Royko "will remind us how a remarkable relationship began—Chicago and Royko, Royko and Chicago—and how it endures."

Book excerpt: The book offers a step-by-step blueprint of radical proposals for the U.S.-Mexican border that go far beyond traditional initiatives to ease restrictions on immigration. Up Against the Wall provides the background to understanding how the border has become a fraud, resulting in nothing more than the criminalization of Mexican and other migrants. The book argues that the border with Mexico should be completely open for Mexicans wishing to travel north.
