In Sunlight and in Shadow

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Helprin, Mark, PUBLISHER: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH), Mark Helprin's enchanting and sweeping new novel asks a simple question: can love and honor conquer all? New York in glows with post-war energy.　 Harry Copeland, an elite paratrooper who fought behind enemy lines in Europe, returns home to run the family business. In a single, magical encounter on the Staten Island ferry, the young singer and heiress Catherine Thomas Hale falls for him in an instant, too late to prevent her engagement to a much older man. Harry and Catherine pursue one another in a romance played out in postwar America's Broadway theaters, Long Island mansions, the offices of financiers, and the haunts of gangsters. Catherine's choice of Harry over her long-time fiance endangers Harry's livelihood and eventually threatens his life. Entrancing in its lyricism, "In Sunlight and in Shadow" so powerfully draws you into New York at the dawn of the modern age that, as in a vivid dream, you will not want to leave.

Multilingualism and Mother Tongue in Medieval French,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lglu, Catherine / Leglu, Catherine, PUBLISHER: Penn State University Press, The Occitan literary tradition of the later Middle Ages is a marginal and hybrid phenomenon, caught between the preeminence of French courtly romance and the emergence of Catalan literary prose. In this book, Catherine Leglu brings together, for the first time in English, prose and verse texts that are composed in Occitan, French, and Catalan-sometimes in a mixture of two of these languages. This book challenges the centrality of "canonical" texts and draws attention to the marginal, the complex, and the hybrid. It explores the varied ways in which literary works in the vernacular composed between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries narrate multilingualism and its apparent opponent, the mother tongue. Leglu argues that the mother tongue remains a fantasy, condemned to alienation from linguistic practices that were, by definition, multilingual. As most of the texts studied in this book are works of courtly literature, these linguistic encounters are often narrated indirectly, through literary motifs of love, rape, incest, disguise, and travel.

Cadogan Guide Rome, Venice, & Florence

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Facaros, Dana / Pauls, Michael, PUBLISHER: Cadogan Guides, Cadogan's original three cities guide is now in its fifth edition--and travel companies consistently cite this combination as their most sought-after Italian tour. These are three remarkable cities with three remarkable stories to tell. Rome went out and conquered the world, and in its retirement came back to remake itself as Europe's most ornate capital. Venice built itself up from a Dark Age swamp to become a fairy city of canals. Florence built its empire on finance and wool, and lavished the profits on art and science. Cadogan explores their three very different characters: stately Rome, with its Coliseum and the Sistine Chapel; dreamy Venice, and the eternal romance of a gondola ride along its canals; and Florence, bursting with more paintings, sculptures, and monuments than anywhere else in Italy. They all combine to offer a sublime introduction to the country, or a perfect multi-center trip for travelers with limited time. Cadogan's essential guide uncovers the divine, the great, and the quirky in each city.

Dreams of Bread and Fire

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kricorian, Nancy / Dricorian, Nancy, PUBLISHER: Grove Press, Kricorian's second novel is a beautifully etched tale of romance, idealism, and the quest for self-identity by a writer praised for her "admirable economy and grace" (The Baltimore Sun). Poetic and assured, it is the story of a young American woman whose half-Jewish, half-American heritage seems a mere footnote to her own identity until the dark shadows of history propel her into a quest for her long dead father, and a search for the clues of a nearly forgotten genocide. While studying in Paris, Ani Silver receives a letter from her New England boyfriend ending their relationship. Thus begins a series of romantic misadventures, culminating in her reconnection with a childhood friend. Their shared preoccupation with their Armenian heritage provides Ani with a new facet to her own identity--even as she begins to suspect that her friend has a secret--and dangerous--identity. Funny and heartbreaking to its bold and exquisite conclusion. Dreams of Bread and Fire is an irresistible novel of passion, ideals, and the temptations of trying to outrun our origins.
