Paperback. Condición: Good. When seventeen-year-old Elizabeth Byrne enters the convent in the shadow of World War II, she's driven by faith, a desire to be of service like her soldier older brother, and perhaps a bit of fear of the real world that was looming after high school. Two years later, after her time in a St. Louis novitiate, Sister Elizabeth Mary is turned loose-with no training, not even a basic college education-to teach seventy-two third- and fourth-graders in one room. Thus begins her education in the "real world" of patriarchal American Catholic life as the post-war baby boom heats up and nuns are the unpaid labor to educate thousands of children. New Art follows Byrne from her idealistic youth through the turbulence of the late 1960s, including upheaval in the Catholic church, when the foundation she has built her life upon becomes shaky, and she must find a way to forge a new life for herself. This debut novel is a tribute to female friendship, faith, and the powerful spirit of community. …

Hardcover. Condición: Used - Very Good. The Glass House, designed by celebrated architect Philip Johnson as a personal retreat, is an icon of modern architecture. A crystalline box set in a serene New England landscape, the house is now owned by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, which will open it to visitors in April 2007. Johnson used his property near New Canaan, Connecticut, as an architectural laboratory, adding nine additional structures over a forty-year period. Among them are the Ghost House, a chain-link tribute to Frank Gehry, and the witty, bright red Gate House. Glass House is a unique presentation of the Glass House complex in words and photographs. Compiled by eminent critic Toshio Nakamura under the sponsorship of YKK AP Inc., the volume features a specially commissioned suite of photographs, taken throughout the four seasons, by renowned architectural photographer Michael Moran, including cross-processed images and images taken with infrared film. The deluxe graphic presentation, with distinctive paper stocks and foldout pages reproducing Johnson's original drawings, was conceived by designer Michael Rock of 2x4. Tour book for the great icon of architecture opening in June of 2007. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.…
