100 Days and 99 Nights $5.99 Dad says because of the army he stood shoulder to shoulder with polar bears and watched the sun rise over the frozen fields of Alaska, which sounds really exciting. And because of the Army he slept in sludge, shoulder to shoulder with snakes and watched the sun set over the swamps of Alabama — which does not. In a timely, but not politically charged way, author Alan Madison looks at the way a family copes with having a parent away on a 100 day, 99 night military tour of duty through the eyes of the very loveable Esmerelda (Esme) Swishback McCarthur. Esme wants to be good while her dad is away. In fact, she feels like it’s her duty to be good. But being good can be hard, especially if you have a little brother like Ike. By following Esme’s story, as she awaits her father’s return, readers will see how heroism can translate to every member of a family. Aside from the military families that this book serves, readers who wonder what it would be like if their mother, father, brother, or sister was sent away will relate to Esme’s quiet strength and candor and will understand her worry about what could happen. This story has the potential to speak to readers on a personal level and to turn a concept that seems so hard to grasp—war—into one that feels much more personal. |

100 Love Sonnets / Cien sonetos de amor $18.95 Against the backdrop of Isla Negra — the sea and wind, the white sand with its scattering of delicate wild flowers, the hot sun and salty smells of the Pacific — Nobel laureate Pablo Neruda sets these joyfully sensual poems in celebration of his love. The subject of that love: Matilde Urrutia de Neruda, the poet’s “beloved wife.”As popular in the Hispanic world as the poet’s renowned Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair, One Hundred Love Sonnets has never before been published in its entirety in English translation. The reason for this astonishing neglect may lie in the historical circumstances that surrounded Neruda’s “discovery ” by English-speaking readers. In the United States he came to popularity during the turmoil of the sixties, when Americans needed a politically committed poet, and much of Neruda’s canon answered that need. But, in his native Chile and throughout Latin America, Neruda has always been cherished as dearly for the earthly sensuality and eroticism of his love poetry as for his statements of political belief. To know this work, then is to understand the poet’s art more thoroughly. |

16 Lighthouse Road (Cedar Cove Series #1) $9.99 Olivia Lockhart16 Lighthouse RoadCedar Cove, WashingtonDear Reader, You don’t know me yet, but in a few hours that’s going to change. You see, I’m inviting you to my home and my town of Cedar Cove because I want ou to meet my family, friends, and neighbors. Come and hear their stories — maybe even their secrets! I have to admit that my own secrets are pretty open. My marriage failed some years ago, and I have a rather … difficult relationship with my daughter, Justine. Then there’s my mother, Charlotte, who has plenty of opinions and is always willing to share them. Here’s an example: I’m a family court judge and she likes to drop in on my courtroom. Recently I was hearing a divorce petition. In Charlotte’s view, young Cecilia and Ian Randall hadn’t tried hard enough to make their marriage work — and I agreed. So I rendered my judgement: Divorce Denied. Well, you wouldn’t believe the reaction! Thanks to an article by Jack Griffin, the editor of our local paper (and a man I wouldn’t mind seeing more of!), everyone’s talking. Cedar Cove — people love it and sometimes they leave it, but they never forget it! See you soon … Olivia New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber’s day starts long before the sun is up: when her alarm clock rings 4:00 a.m., her home on Washington’s Puget Sound is still shrouded in darkness. Even her husband’s pleas for “just one more snooze, honey” don’t dissuade her from focusing on the day ahead. “I spend so much of my time writing that I hardly have a chance to read,” says the talented author, who has written over 100 books to date. “From four to six in the morning is a precious time for me — I get to immerse myself in someone else’s words!” Readers worldwide clamor for her heartwarming stories of home and hearth, lively romantic adventures, inspirational tales |

16 Lighthouse Road (Cedar Cove Series #1) $3.94 Olivia Lockhart16 Lighthouse RoadCedar Cove, WashingtonDear Reader, You don’t know me yet, but in a few hours that’s going to change. You see, I’m inviting you to my home and my town of Cedar Cove because I want ou to meet my family, friends, and neighbors. Come and hear their stories — maybe even their secrets! I have to admit that my own secrets are pretty open. My marriage failed some years ago, and I have a rather … difficult relationship with my daughter, Justine. Then there’s my mother, Charlotte, who has plenty of opinions and is always willing to share them. Here’s an example: I’m a family court judge and she likes to drop in on my courtroom. Recently I was hearing a divorce petition. In Charlotte’s view, young Cecilia and Ian Randall hadn’t tried hard enough to make their marriage work — and I agreed. So I rendered my judgement: Divorce Denied. Well, you wouldn’t believe the reaction! Thanks to an article by Jack Griffin, the editor of our local paper (and a man I wouldn’t mind seeing more of!), everyone’s talking. Cedar Cove — people love it and sometimes they leave it, but they never forget it!

Source: Wikipedia. Free updates online. Not illustrated. Excerpt: “The Lovely House” is a short story by Shirley Jackson published in 1950 that involves the conflict of real versus surreal and is full of ambiguity. Jackson forces her readers to use suspension of disbelief and analyze the text in order to understand the full extent of the complex story. Shirley Jackson was born in San Francisco, California in December 1916. She attended the University of Syracuse where she graduated with her BA in English in 1940. After graduating, she married Stanley Edgar Hyman. She died at the age of 49 due to heart failure. Her work mostly consisted of short stories and novels. Her first short story was published in 1941 and was called My Life with R.H. Macy. She continued to write many short stories with the most well known as The Lottery which was published in 1948 and another well known short story was “The Lovely House” published in 1950. “The Lovely House” consists of three main parts. In part one, the main character Margaret spends her summer vacation with her friend Carla Montague. When entering the huge and over-decorated house that is set among lavish grounds, a |

A Birder’s West Indies: An Island-by-Island Tour (Corrie Herring Hooks Series) $8.88 The West Indies offer so much more than sun, sand, and shopping. This sweeping arc of islands, which runs from Cuba to Grenada and includes the Virgin Islands, teems with a rich diversity of plant and animal life. Up to 40 percent of the plants in some forests are found nowhere else on earth, while the West Indian flyway is a critical link in the migratory routes of many birds. In A Birder’s West Indies, Roland Wauer takes you on an island-by-island journey of discovery. He describes the unique natural features of each island and recounts his often fascinating experiences in seeking out the nearly 400 species of birds known in the West Indies. His accounts give insight into the birds’ habitats, status, and ecology and record some of the threats posed by human activities. For readers planning trips to the West Indies, Wauer also includes helpful, up-to-date facts about the best times to travel, the kinds of entry and customs systems to expect, the money exchange services available, and general information about weather, food, and accommodations. Filling a unique niche among current guides, A Birder’s West Indies offers both professional ornithologists and avocational bird watchers a chance to compare notes and experiences with an expert observer. And for readers who haven’t yet visited the islands, Wauer’s fluid prose and lovely color photographs will be the next-best thing to being there–and an irresistible invitation to go. |

A Bitter Cup of Coffee: How MLB and the Players’ Association Threw 874 Retirees a Curve $18 This painstakingly researched book by Douglas J. Gladstone examines the plight of 874 Major League Baseball players who played between 1947 and 1979, all with brief trials in the majors, careers figuratively “just long enough to drink a cup of coffee.” Since 1980, Major League Baseball players have needed one day of service credit for health benefits and 43 days of service credit to be eligible for a retirement allowance, but those former ballplayers who played during the 1947-1979 seasons were not included retroactively in the amended vesting requirement, and so receive no pensions for the time they gave to our national pastime. These men, the author suggests, have gulped bitter cups of coffee.In his careful examination of this issue, which includes many interviews with former players and some poignant stories of their plight, Gladstone asks his readers to examine our national relationship to sports and its heroes, as well as our relationships with those who precede us in the game of life.A lifelong baseball fan, DOUGLAS J. GLADSTONE is a journalist by training, whose published articles have appeared in the Chicago Sun Times, Baseball Digest and the San Diego Jewish World, among others. This is his first book. |

A Course in Happiness: Mastering the 3 Levels of Self-Understanding That Lead to True and Lasting Contentment $24 “Wise counsel from one of America’s most respected psychiatrists.” -Irvin Yalom, author of Staring at the Sun and When Nietzsche Wept, Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry, Stanford University For many, getting in touch with that elusive thing called “happiness” is rarely simple—and achieving any kind of lasting happiness can feel like an insur­mountable challenge. Perhaps what we need is an education on the subject . . . A Course in Happiness. In this book, Mardi Horowitz draws on more than forty years of experience as a practicing psychiatrist to provide readers with just this.According to Dr. Horowitz, happiness is essentially a by-product of self-knowledge; in order to be happy, we need to understand who we truly are. In A Course in Happiness, he details a deeply rewarding course in mastering the three levels of self-understanding that underlie happiness:Integration: the ability to assemble all the pieces of one’s self into a whole, complete, understood, and respected “me.”Intimacy: the capacity to remain closely connected to the warmth of relationships with family, friends, colleagues, and others in a social community. Integrity: the insight to know which of one’s values are most dear and which are lower in priority—and then to be true to what is the most important, even in the midst of conflict.A Course in Happiness offers a road map for achieving genuine and lasting contentment. |

A Feast In Exile $9.99 A Feast in Exile draws readers back to the time when the Mongol hordes of Timur (known in the West as Tamerlane) swept across fourteenth-century India and Asia. Delhi’s civilized veneer crumbles along with its walls. Foreigners, which the vampire Saint-Germain-here called Sanat Ji Mani-surely is, lose their positions, homes, wealth, and sometimes their lives, if they cannot escape the falling city. Before he can flee Delhi, Sanat Ji Mani must ensure the safety of Avasa Dani, his beautiful ward, who has been abandoned by her husband. Sanat Ji Mani’s love has awakened Avasa Dani’s every sense; even she will become a vampire upon her death, but she finds no terror in this fate. Avasa Dani and Rojire, Sanat Ji Mani’s servant, successfully make their way out of Delhi, but Sanat Ji Mani himself is trapped. His life is bought by his skills with medicine, but, at Timur’s command, he must travel-by day, and exposed to the sun-with the conqueror’s army. Crippled and unable to escape, he knows that his vampire nature will soon be revealed, and then… Avasa Dani, with a worried Rojire at her side, considers her options as a woman without a visible male protector in a land and time ruled by men. While one of Sanat Ji Mani’s allies searches desperately for the missing vampire, Saint-Germain and a young acrobat, with whom he has escaped from Timur’s forces, make their slow and painful way to freedom. The journey changes them both forever. |

Last year’s vacation fiasco had the three of them almost thrown off the island of Aruba-but that was behind them, now. (How were they to know the man being chased on the beach yelling for help was the thief and the man they tackled was the policeman?) This year they would be more careful . Meanwhile, Andrew, an Archeologist studying the Mayan ruins just North of Cancun, had a serious problem. As fast as he discovered priceless artifacts during his digs, they were systematically ripped off by the local police. All his significant Mayan treasures had been confiscated by corrupt officials and sold to the leader of the Mexican underworld in Mexico City.Andrew was tired of his work being stolen from him.One day, after a major hurricane, Andrew came across a Mayan burial chamber. There, he discovered a rare gold medallion encrusted with precious gems.This time Andrew was going to find a way to hold onto his treasure. Later, while pondering his dilemma in a local Cancun bar, he met up with old acquaintenances from his home town of Somerset. Being old friends and full of Mexican beer, The Three Studs agree to help Andrew transport his medallion out of the country. The Mexican mobsters, however, follow The Three Studs back to their hometown where they will stop at nothing, including murder, to steal this rare, gem-studded treasure. What takes place when they get back to the Inn will keep readers turning the pages! ABOUT THE AUTHOR:John was born in Hastings-on-Hudson, New York. A graduate of the State University of New York at Oswego, John spent the next forty years in Rockville, Maryland, working in the field of Education.

A Thin Cosmic Rain $149.87 Enigmatic for many years, cosmic rays are now known to be not rays at all, but particles, the nuclei of atoms, raining down continually on the earth, where they can be detected throughout the atmosphere and sometimes even thousands of feet underground. This book tells the long-running detective story behind the discovery and study of cosmic rays, a story that stretches from the early days of subatomic particle physics in the 1890s to the frontiers of high-energy astrophysics today. In an excellent survey of the complex and fascinating history of the subject, [Michael Friedlander] gives a blow-by-blow account of the discoveries and the details … His readers, and he deserves to have many, will learn about increasingly elegant detection techniques, about cosmic rays from the sun, the energy spectra of the particles and details of the tiny–but important–flux of gamma rays. –New Scientist Friedlander reviews the many different kinds of radiation in comprehensive detail, interspersing throughout his technical taxonomy fascinating examples of how research into these visitors from distant stars has yielded many useful terrestrial applications … Friedlander writes very fluidly … The book will appeal to science buffs interested in cosmology, particle physics, archeology, even nuclear medicine. It should establish itself as a standard work in the field of cosmic radiation. –Publishers Weekly |

A Trouble of Fools (Carlotta Carlyle Series #1) $0.01 The first book in the Carlotta Carlyle series!Linda Barnes’s A Trouble of Fools is the book that introduced readers to ex-Boston cop and PI Carlotta Carlyle, who knows trouble when she sees it like the old Irish lady offering a grand in cash to find her brother…TROUBLE…Since being bounced from the Boston police for insubordination after six years of service, Carlotta Carlyle has set up shop as a private investigator ready to deal with anything from lost pets to substantially grander larcenies. Though Carlotta, a six-foot-tall, redheaded ex cop, part-time cabbie, and neophyte private eye, works out of her home, it’s rare that clients stop by unannounced. Especially clients like the genteel, reserved, elderly spinster Miss Margaret Devens. ALWAYS COMES…With cash flow problems and a caseload so light that she’s taken to reading her cat’s mail, Carlotta accepts the case of Miss Devens’s missing brother Eugene. Oddly enough, Carlotta knew Eugene when they worked together back at Green and White Cab. As far as Carlotta sees it, this case should be a pinch—until two thugs looking for money send her client to the hospital. WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT IT…The old lady’s missing brother seems to have been involved in something much more dangerous than simply driving a cab. Carlotta is determined to do whatever it takes-work the cops, pose as a hooker, and even drive a cab again—to find Eugene before it’s too late.”She is one of the most sparkling, most irresistible heroines ever to grace the pages of a whodunit.”?Chicago Sun-Times”All elements are skillfully woven together in a book that has just about everything.”—Denver Post |

Adagia: Variations on a Term for Life $9.99 If there is a labyrinth and a sphere, Proust’s memory as the minatory, then this book is genius. A flight out of that space and time. Icarus here is returned: precise, violent, and passionate. Alive.Geoff WaiteGerman Studies and Comparative Literature, Cornell University***Scott Hartstein’s Adagia is novel in that it is not a novel. Therein lies its novelty. It is a kaleidoscope, whose reflections–in both senses–shimmer about a plot, to be sure, but a plot that plays second fiddle to the author’s impressive erudition and his digressions into cultural, literary, religious, philosophical, musical, linguistic by-ways of all kinds and dimensions. These beckon the often challenged reader to follow along, unsure where he is eventually being led by the author–the work’s real protagonist–and wondering through what lush landscapes he will be able to return.Adagia will impress and astound many readers, perplex some, even intimidate–infuriate?– others. But it will not leave many indifferent.Norm ShapiroProfessor of Romance Languages & LIteratures,Wesleyan UniversityWriter in residenceAdams HouseHarvard University***The birth of a book is like the birth of a child-Joyce discovered this analogy when he composed the “Oxen of the Sun” episode of Ulysses. So did Proust as he toiled, spinning the huge amniotic web of his great Oeuvre. In a different key, Adagia makes us retrace similar steps: its tangled tale surveys the long history of the European novel while creating a music that echoes in us deeply and exhilaratingly.

After the Beginning $18.95 After the Beginning opens with the Divine Family (God, Goddess, and all the angels) celebrating the completion of the universe – sun, moons, and eight perfect planets, with no mistakes at all. But when Little Angel suggests that there could be one more planet, one where “things aren’t the same all the time,” things begin to unravel… God, Goddess, Little Angel, and the whole family of angels – Inventor Angel, Artist Angel, Musician Angel, Arithmetic Angel, Scientist Angel, Geometry Angel, Biology Angel, and Fire Angel – eagerly create a beautiful blue-green planet, filled with plants and animals and birds and fish. And for a long time, everything runs “just right.” But then, some of the “new ones,” who are just like angels, begin to get greedy and careless with their planet. They poison the water, pollute the air, and cut down the forests. Things get worse and worse, until children – from all around the word – cry “Remember!” “Remember the forest!” “Remember to share!” “Remember the water!” “Remember the air!” In this wise and marvelously enchanting tale, Carolyn Pogue connects the sacredness of the earth, the ecological crisis, and children’s leadership in a way that will inspire children and adults alike. A perfect complement, Margaret Kyle’s vibrant illustrations create a sense of awe that will move and delight readers of all ages. |

All The Sun Goes Round $14.99 Astrology is rich with stories and symbols: the gods of love and war, of time and the sea, the wing-footed messenger, the sturdy goat and the scales of justice… An astrologer knows that a birth chart is a complex and subtle fusion of planets and signs, but this wonderful tapestry can never be adequately conveyed in the astrology columns in newspapers and magazines.This book, a unique marrying together of mythical storytelling and the astrological signs, contains twelve enchanting new tales – each tale exploring the many different characteristics waiting to be recognised within each sign. The land they’re set in is Nowhere in Particular; the time is somewhere between Then and Now; the characters and creatures that inhabit the pages all reflect something of the zodiacal signs they represent. And because every one of us is capable of achieving wonders and being disagreeable in the very same breath, you won’t find light here without shadow, gain without loss, or being far away without a journey home.Because every birth chart is a combination of signs, there’s likely to be more than one story here that touches you. And you might just get a little more insight into your friends and family, not to mention people you’re finding it hard to get along with!A beautiful and entrancing book which will make an ideal gift. It is suitable for all readers, young and old,whether astrological by nature or not – the stories cannot fail to delight and entertain. |

Always Now $36.16 Always Now, Collected Poems of Margaret Avison, encompasses in three volumes all of the published books, from Winter Sun (1960) to Concrete and Wild Carrot (2002), and is framed by a gathering of uncollected and new poems respectively. When complete, Always Now will present all of the poems, up to 2002, that Margaret Avison wishes to preserve. Volume One extends from the uncollected poems to Avison’s translations of Hungarian poems, and includes Winter Sun and The Dumbfounding. Besides the uncollected surprises, two of them dating to high school days and first published in Hermes, Toronto’s Humberside Collegiate literary magazine, there are the loved and familiar early poems, just as fresh now as they were then, from which certain wonderful lines still jump out: Nobody stuffs the world in at your eyes./ The optic heart must venture’; In the mathematics of God/ there are percentages beyond one hundred.’ Margaret Avison’s poems have warmed the hearts and enlarged the thinking of two generations of Canadian readers. |
