Synopsis Limbo by : Alfred Lubrano
In Limbo, award-winning journalist Alfred Lubrano identifies and describes an overlooked cultural phenomenon: the internal conflict within individuals raised in blue-collar homes, now living white-collar lives. These people often find that the values of the working class are not sufficient guidance to navigate the white-collar world, where unspoken rules reflect primarily upper-class values. Torn between the world they were raised in and the life they aspire too, they hover between worlds, not quite accepted in either. Himself the son of a Brooklyn bricklayer, Lubrano informs his account with personal experience and interviews with other professionals living in limbo. For millions of Americans, these stories will serve as familiar reminders of the struggles of achieving the American Dream.

Synopsis Lady Limbo by : Consuelo Roland
One Friday evening Daniel de Luc, an elusive crime writer with a deep love of poetry, disappears from a Camps Bay apartment while cooking pasta. His wife Paola, desperately worried after days of hearing nothing, is contacted by an eccentric stranger who claims to have known her missing husband under a different name and warns her not to look for him. Paola soon learns that her husband was involved in the shadowy world of the international sex industry, where well-heeled women pay men to become the anonymous fathers of their children. As her neat, controlled existence is turned inside out, Paola struggles to keep a level head and find her own humanity while trying to outwit her enemies and stay alive. The result is a fast-paced thriller that shifts between Cape Town and Paris, blending realism with the fantastic and pitting love against the attraction of sexual adventure.

Synopsis Limbo by : Bernard Wolfe
In the aftermath of an atomic war, a new international movement of pacifism has arisen. Multitudes of young men have chosen to curb their aggressive instincts through voluntary amputation - disarmament in its most literal sense. Those who have undergone this procedure are highly esteemed in the new society. But they have a problem - their prosthetics require a rare metal to function, and international tensions are rising over which countries get the right to mine it . . .

Synopsis Lives in Limbo by : Roberto G. Gonzales
"Over two million of the nation's eleven million undocumented immigrants have lived in the United States since childhood. Due to a broken immigration system, they grow up to uncertain futures. In Lives in Limbo, Roberto G. Gonzales introduces us to two groups: the college-goers, like Ricardo, whose good grades and strong network of community support propelled him into higher education, only to land in a factory job a few years after graduation, and the early-exiters, like Gabriel, who failed to make meaningful connections in high school and started navigating dead-end jobs, immigration checkpoints, and a world narrowly circumscribed by legal limitations. This ethnography asks why highly educated undocumented youth ultimately share similar work and life outcomes with their less-educated peers, even as higher education is touted as the path to integration and success in America. Gonzales bookends his study with discussions of how the prospect of immigration reform, especially the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, could impact the lives of these young Americans"--Provided by publisher.

Synopsis Limbo by : Nora Quien
In Limbo, Book I of The High Comedy, Nora Quien takes the reader on a trip through the afterlife where a man walks the tightrope between good and evil, a dance we all do, often for the entertainment of everyone else. Dan Twersky is a former TSA agent killed in an airport drug bust, who finds his fate in Hell, the first stop on his journey into the great beyond. At first, he must negotiate the stinky, over-populated Nine Circles of Hell, a fearsome place with a diverse cast of shady residents and loathsome characters from history. His biggest challenge is to keep the Devil happy, an almost impossible task. Forced to work on Your Majesty’s relentless war on goodness, Twersky must succeed at his evil assignments on Earth to avoid ending up in Hell Central, the location of the dreaded Fire Pit. His travels take him to the world’s hotspots and on an inner journey where he faces the demons of fear and loneliness. Twersky takes us on an exploration of Twenty-first Century Hell and the tenuous borders between reality and fantasy, and comedy and horror. Sometimes who can tell the difference?
