Emily Dickinson was one of the most reclusive of all poets. She spent much of her life in seclusion in her father’s house in Amherst, and only a handful of her 1800 poems were published in her lifetime. Credit for the posthumous publication of her work must be given to her editor and friend Thomas W. Higginson, who reported that, in spite of the voluminous correspondence which passed between himself and Dickinson, he only met her twice in person.

Della terra in cui è nata le sono rimasti pochi ricordi, vaghi e confusi: la zia Aster che si sforza di farla mangiare, i suoi passi a testa bassa sulla strada per la scuola, i giochi con il cugino Abbush e i bambini del quartiere. Le è rimasto il nome, che in amarico significa “nostalgia” e sembra alludere a qualcosa di originario che le mancherà sempre. E il cognome, Abraham, preso da un padre che non conosce, ma che si trascina dietro come un’ombra, come la traccia di un passato divenuto ormai troppo distante. Perché Tezeta è italiana.

Informed by real-life events from Japanese incarceration, the Vietnam War, and modern-day immigrant detention, Kevin Nguyen gives us a version of reality only a few degrees away from our own—much too close for comfort. Moving and finely attuned to both the brutalities and mundanities of racism in America, My Documents is a strangely funny and touching portrait of American ambition, fear, and family. The story of the Nguyens is one of resilience and how we return to each other, and to ourselves, after tragedy.

Природа всегда была в центре творчества Паустовского — влюбленного в окружающий мир путешественника. Именно природе и ее взаимоотношениям с людьми посвящена повесть Кара-Бугаз, историю создания которой Паустовский так увлекательно рассказал в "Золотой розе". На первый взгляд, совершенно прозаичная тема — разработка залежей соли в пустынном заливе Каспия — раскрывается с множества совершенно разных сторон. Самоотверженность русских офицеров и ученых, безлюдные берега, наводящие суеверный ужас на моряков и кочевников, — все это сплетается воедино под пером мастера.

What Pornography Knows offers a new history of pornography based on forgotten bawdy fiction of the eighteenth century, its nineteenth-century republication, and its appearance in 1960s paperbacks. Through close textual study, Lubey shows how these texts were edited across time to become what we think pornography is a genre focused primarily on sex. Originally, they were far more variable, joining speculative philosophy and feminist theory to sexual description.
