The second edition of A History of Sub-Saharan Africa continues to provide an accessible introduction to the continent's history for students and general readers. The authors employ a thematic approach to their subject, focusing on how the environment has shaped the societies and cultures of the African peoples. The text demonstrates how the geography, climate, and geology of Africa influenced the rise of states and empires, the emergence of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, the European conquest, and the creation of independent African nations. Yet the book maintains a focus on the peoples whose creative energies built unique communities and traditions within the challenging context of the Africa landmass. In the process of reconstructing this continent's rich history, the authors analyze the contentious scholarly debates that have emerged out of this field. The book is illustrated with photographs, maps, and sidebars that feature the salient points on either side of the debates., Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000039082. ISBN: 9781107628519

Imprint: Penguin Classics, 1975 Novel by Wilkie Collins, published serially in All the Year Round (November 1859-July 1860) and in book form in 1860. Noted for its suspenseful plot a nd unique characterization, the successful novel brought Collins great fame ; he adapted it into a play in 1871. This dramatic tale, inspired by an act ual criminal case, is told through multiple narrators. Frederick Fairlie, a wealthy hypochondriac, hires virtuous Walter Hartright to tutor his beauti ful niece and heiress, Laura, and her homely, courageous half-sister, Maria n Halcombe. Although Hartright and Laura fall in love, she honors her late father's wish that she marry Sir Percival Glyde, a villain who plans to ste al her inheritance.

Their plot is threatened by Anne Catherick, a mysterious fugitive f rom a mental asylum who dresses in white, resembles Laura, and knows the se cret of Glyde's illegitimate birth. Through the perseverance of Hartright a nd Marian, Glyde and Fosco are defeated and killed, allowing Hartright to m arry Laura., Good Stock number: RWARE0000020160. ISBN: 9780140430967

Imprint: Pocket, 1998 Collins (Vendetta, 1997, etc.) once again weaves her trademark web of Holly wood romance and intrigue, in a 17th novel that's sure to capture her rabid fans. Luscious movie star and genuine nice-girl Lara Ivory is the pivotal character here, but she has a stellar supporting cast. Lara's ex-husband, r espected director Richard Barry, has remarried costume designer and aspirin g producer Nikki--who has become Lara's new best friend. Add to the (tempor arily) happy threesome the mysterious, brooding would-be actor Joey Lorenzo , Nikki's emotionally damaged and headed-for- trouble daughter, 15-year-old Summer, and crazed stalker Alison Sewall, who's been harboring a longtime o bsession with Lara and is now out of the pen and thirsty for revenge. When Lara accepts a difficult role in Nikki's first movie--a low-budget, indepen dent film about a teacher who's gang- raped and then seeks revenge on her a ttackers--all hell breaks loose. Richard can't stand either his wife's pros pective success or her bond with his ex, for whom he still carries a torch. His subsequent infidelities (which is why Lara also left him) push Nikki i nto the arms of drug-addict and brilliant actor Aiden Sean, who just happen s to be playing the lead rapist in her film. The love that's burning betwee n Lara and Joey, however (neither is willing to reveal anything from the pa st, to fans, the media, or each other), is the main event here, taking prec edence over Summer's disappearance, which--as the climactic near-finale-- m anages to somehow tie loose threads together in a tenuous but feasible knot ., Near Fine Stock number: RWARE0000002552.

Imprint: Penguin, 2013 "Tóibín is at his lyrical best in this beautiful and daring work" (The New York Times Book Review) that portrays Mary as a solitary older woman still seeking to understand the events that become the narrative of the New Testa ment and the foundation of Christianity-shortlisted for the 2013 Man Booker Prize. In the ancient town of Ephesus, Mary lives alone, years after her son's cru cifixion. She has no interest in collaborating with the authors of the Gosp el, who are her keepers. She does not agree that her son is the Son of God; nor that his death was "worth it"; nor that the "group of misfits he gathe red around him, men who could not look a woman in the eye," were holy disci ples. Mary judges herself ruthlessly (she did not stay at the foot of the cross until her son died-she fled, to save herself), and her judgment of others is equally harsh. This woman whom we know from centuries of paintings and scripture as the docile, loving, silent, long-suffering, obedient, worshipful mother of Christ becomes a tragic heroine with the relentless eloquence of Electra or Medea or Antigone. Tóibín's tour de force of imagination and language is a portrait so vivid and convincing that our image of Mary will be forever transformed., Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000037729.

Imprint: HarperCollins, 1993 A crisp clean first edition (as stated) no markings throughout, not an ex- l ib edition: Reading Colwin's ( Goodbye Without Leaving ) posthumous novel is a bittersweet experience; delight in her irresistible characters and her sensitive probing of life's mysteries is tinged with regret that we will never again see the reflections of her wise and imaginative mind. This is Colwin's most mature novel, her most deeply felt (but characteristically light-fingered) domestic fairy tale for adults. Colwin's characters share a supersensitivity, and a wide-eyed wonder toward even mundane institutions and events. Here, late 30-ish book designer Jane Louise Parker, recently married to plant chemist Teddy, has difficulty thinking of herself as a grown-up. Jewish, dark and "a nomad," she has a free-floating anxiety, born of a lifetime of feeling excluded. She feels inferior to focused Teddy, the scion of a WASP family with roots in a small community in the Berkshires. Not much actually happens in this book: Jane Louise fends off the advances of her libidinous boss; she and her best friend, caterer and pastry chef Edie, become pregnant, and have babies. Motherhood provides Jane Louise with a new source of anxiety, but that is dispelled, temporarily at least, by her realization that her daughter Miranda will have roots and a secure identity. Meanwhile, Colwin examines some traditional institutions with a laser-sharp eye and an offbeat sense of humor. She speculates about marriage and families and friendships, about differences between the sexes, and about such existential questions as "Were other people ever, ever knowable?"

'The Master said, "If a man sets his heart on benevolence, he will be free from evil"' The Analects are a collection of Confucius's sayings brought together by hi s pupils shortly after his death in 497 BC. Together they express a philoso phy, or a moral code, by which Confucius, one of the most humane thinkers o f all time, believed everyone should live. Upholding the ideals of wisdom, self-knowledge, courage and love of one's fellow man, he argued that the pu rsuit of virtue should be every individual's supreme goal. And, while follo wing the Way, or the truth, might not result in immediate or material gain, Confucius showed that it could nevertheless bring its own powerful and las ting spiritual rewards.

Imprint: Knopf, 2011 Susan Conley, her husband, and their two young sons say good-bye to their f riends, family, and house in Maine for a two-year stint in a high-rise apar tment in Beijing, prepared to embrace the inevitable onslaught of new exper iences that such a move entails. But Susan can't predict just how much thei r lives will change. While her husband is consumed with his job, Susan works on finishing her no vel and confronting the challenges of day- to-day life in an utterly foreign country: determining the proper way to buy apples at a Chinese megamarket; bribing her little boys to ride the school bus; fielding invitations to my sterious "sweater parties" and tracking down the faux-purse empire of the i nfamous Bag Lady; and getting stuck in an elevator, unable to call for help in Mandarin. Despite the distractions, there are many occasions for joy. From road trips to the Great Wall and bartering for a "starter Buddha" at the raucous flea market to lighting fireworks in the streets for the Chinese New Year and f easting on the world's best dumplings in back-alley restaurants, they gradu ally turn their unfamiliar environs into a true home. Then Susan learns she has cancer. After undergoing treatment in Boston, she returns to Beijing, again as a foreigner-but this time, it's her own body in which she feels a stranger. Set against the eternally fascinating backdrop of modern China and full of insight into the trickiest questions of motherhood-How do you talk to children about death? When is it okay to lie?-this wry and poignant memoir is a celebration of family and a candid exploration of mortality and belonging., Very Good/Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000037047.
