|  | Eight Men: Short Stories
Release Date: August 30, 1996"Wright's unrelenting bleak landscape was not merely that of the Deep South, or of Chicago, but that of the world, of the human heart," said James Baldwin, and here, in these powerful stories, Richard Wright takes readers into this landscape one again. Eight Men presents eight stories of black men living at violent odds with the white world around them.

|  | Rough Likeness: Essays
Publication Date: December 20, 2011Lia Purpura’s essays are full of joy in the act of intense observation; they’re also deliciously subversive and alert to the ways language gets locked and loaded by culture. These elegant, conversational excursions refuse to let a reader slide over anything, from the tiniest shards of beach glass to barren big-box wastelands. They detonate distractedness, superficiality, artificiality. In the process, Purpura inhabits many stances: metaphysician and biologist, sensualist and witness—all in service of illuminating that which Virginia Woolf c...

|  | Scene of the Crime: A Guide to the Landscapes of British Detective Fiction

Resnick is from the mean streets of modern Nottingham. Addicts of the British detective story should enjoy this gazetteer.
