A pregnant woman seeks belonging while poaching flowers in the rainforest with her partner’s mother. Two teenage girls find love during a summer spent on Midway Atoll. A young woman returns home to O’ahu following a breakup and reconnects with her estranged father and the island itself. \nLinked by both place and character\, Mariah Rigg’s ten stories in EXTINCTION CAPITAL OF THE WORLD illuminate the exotification and commodification of Hawai’i in the American mythos and mark the arrival of an exciting new voice in contemporary fiction. \n“Rigg’s voice is sharp and engrossing\, her characters cunning but affable. This is climate fiction at its most humane and emotionally rich.” — Vulture\, “28 Books We Can’t Wait to Read This Summer” \n“Rigg is an absolutely beautiful writer and a master of subtext; the conversations between her characters crackle with history and deep feelings. . . . A gorgeous\, compelling collection that unspools the little-known history of Hawai’i and shows how queerness operates in the furthest-flung American state.” — Oprah Daily\, “8 Pride Month Books that Celebrate Queer Joy” \nAbout the Author: \nMariah Rigg is a Samoan-Haole who was born and raised on the island of O‘ahu. Her chapbook\, ALL HAT\, NO CATTLE was published by Bull City Press in 2023. She is the recipient of fellowships and awards from the National Endowment for the Arts\, MASS MoCA\, Virginia Center for the Creative Arts\, The Mount\, Oregon Literary Arts\, Carolyn Moore Writers’ House\, and Lambda Literary. She holds an MFA from the University of Oregon and is currently a PhD candidate at the University of Tennessee\, Knoxville where she teaches writing.

This method will only work temporarily. Buddha taught how our thoughts are internal paths – when channeled in a beneficial direction\, and supported by logic and reasoning\, they can actually guide us to a stable heartfelt experience of peace and relaxation. \nThis half-day course will be guided by Gen Kelsang Wangpo\, a visiting guest teacher from Kadampa Meditation Center Texas. He will give teachings and guide meditations on the use of contemplation in a meditation practice.  \nGen Kelsang Wangpo has been a devoted student of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche for over 20 years\, he has taught Kadampa Buddhism across the U.S. Gen Wangpo is known for his practical approach to presenting ancient Buddhist wisdom. He is deeply appreciated for his clear\, inspiring teachings and his ability to connect with others through loving-kindness and compassionate care. With particular skill in presenting profound topics in an accessible way\, Gen Wangpo helps everyone engage with Buddha’s teachings on a deeper level.
