Description
A man called Otto: The story of Otto Anderson, a grumpy widower whose only joy comes from criticizing and judging his exasperated neighbors.

Description
Women talking: The women of an insular, ultraconservative religious community grapple with reconciling a brutal reality with their faith. Through the backstory, we see a community of women come together in the aftermath of pervasive sexual assault to figure out how they might move forward to build a better world for themselves and their children. They discuss how to proceed after the exposure of vicious serial rapes perpetrated by the men of their own community who used livestock tranquilizers to drug female community members of all ages, violently raping them at night. Stay and fight or leave. They will not do nothing.
Description
Where the crawdads sing: For years, rumors of the 'Marsh Girl' have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So, in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life, until the unthinkable happens.
