In 1948, young Le Clezio, with his mother and brother, left behind a still-devastated Europe to join his father, a military doctor in Nigeria. In this title, the narrative relates both the dazzled enthusiasm the child feels at discovering newfound freedom in the Africa and his torment at discovering the rigid authoritarian nature of his father.

Northern New England in the late 19th-century saw an explosion of "new home construction." The railroads had opened up the mountains to tourists while steamers regularly plied the coast. Families, both rich and poor, were eager to spend time in small villages where, close to nature, they would enjoy the blessings of a healthy climate.

The city of Venice has always provided an almost irresistible lure for both writers and artists. Henry James loved it, as did Ruskin, Browning, Pound, and Brodsky. For artists, it has been a compulsory magnet since the time of Bellini and Canaletto. This title presents a tour of Venice from an artist's perspective.

Stig Dagerman (1923-1954) is regarded as the most talented young writer of the Swedish post-war generation. By the 1940s, his fiction, plays, and journalism had catapulted him to the forefront of Swedish letters. This selection, containing a number of new translations of Dagerman's stories, is unified by the theme of the loss of innocence.

An empty 9X20-foot site in the middle of Wall Street created by the site's former use as an outhouse. A two-story building surrounded by tall apartments on Upper Broadway that owes its continued existence to the timing of Prohibition. These are the holdouts. This title offers a pictorial history of some of New York's most infamous holdouts.

Include two tales: "The Great Piratical Rumbustification" introduces us to Alpha, Oliver, and Omega Terrapin, alone for an evening of devilish fun and none other than Orpheus Clinker, a reformed pirate cleverly transformed into a respectable babysitter. Or has he reformed?; and "The Librarian and the Robbers" is a tale of a band of wicked robbers.

D H Lawrence (1885-1930) made a contribution to poetry that, in the words of Louis Bogan, "Can now be recognized as one of the most important, in any language, of our time." "Birds, Beasts, and Flowers!" was his first great experiment into the form of free verse. This edition re-sets the text in the format of the first edition.
