Paperback. Condición: Good. 37 masterpieces inspire an artist in this introduction to art history that includes a search-and-find game. "Today I will make a new painting," declares an artist, but first she must build a stretcher to stretch the canvas; select which paints, brushes, and palette knives to use; and, most importantly, decide what to paint. Will she paint a still life in the style of Robert S. Duncanson or a portrait in the manner of Mary Cassatt? Using reproductions of art from the National Gallery of Art by Vincent van Gogh, Judith Leyster, Claude Monet and others pivotal figures in art history, Roxie Munroe introduces readers to a variety of iconic artists, art styles, and time periods. The sweeping painting she creates by the book's end cleverly incorporates all 37 pieces she has considered. Eagle-eyed readers will love finding the works of art in her painting and learning more about the artists in the notes in the back matter. You'll want to start building canvases and mixing colors for a masterpiece of your very own.…

Paperback. Condición: Fair. A "wickedly funny" (Newsweek) collection of ten short stories from Nobel Prize-winning author Alice Munro, "one of the most eloquent and gifted writers of contemporary fiction" (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times). "Each of her collections demonstrates such linguistic skill, delicacy of vision, and . . . moral strength and clarity."--Chicago Tribune   A woman haunted by dreams of her dead mother. An adulterous couple stepping over the line where the initial excitement ends and the pain begins. A widow visiting a Scottish village in search of her husband's past--and instead discovering unsetting truths about a total stranger.   The miraculously accomplished stories in this collection not only astonish and delight, but also convey the unspoken mysteries at the heart of all human experience. The mastery--the almost numinous ability to say the unsayable--makes Friend of My Youth a genuine literary event.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Eight stunning stories from Nobel Prize-winning author Alice Munro, "a true master of the form" (Salman Rushdie). "Open Secrets is a book that dazzles with its faith in language and in life."--The New York Times Book Review   In these eight tales, Alice Munro reveals entire lives with a sureness that is nothing less than breathtaking, capturing those moments in which people shrug off old truths, old selves, and what they only thought was fate.   In Open Secrets, Munro evokes the devastating power of old love suddenly rekindled. She tells of vanished schoolgirls and indentured frontier brides and an eccentric recluse who, in the course of one surpassingly odd dinner party, inadvertently lands herself a wealthy suitor from exotic Australia. And Munro shows us how one woman's romantic tale of capture and escape in the high Balkans may end up inspiring another woman who is fleeing a husband and a lover in present-day Canada.   The resulting volume resonates with sorrow, humor, and wisdom, and confirms Alice Munro's reputation as one of the most gifted writers of our time.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. A "profound and beautiful" (Francine Prose, O: The Oprah Magazine) collection of ten stories from Nobel Prize-winning author Alice Munro "Filled with subtle and far-reaching thematic reverberations. . . . Munro has an empathy so pitch-perfect . . . you are drawn deftly into another world."--The New York Times Book Review A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times Book Review, The Atlantic Monthly, The Boston Globe, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Chicago Tribune, Kansas City Star, The Economist, Slate   With clarity and ease, Alice Munro renders complex, difficult events and emotions into stories about the unpredictable ways in which men and women accommodate and often transcend what happens in their lives.   In the first story, a young wife and mother, suffering from the unbearable pain of losing her three children, gains solace from a most surprising source. In another, a young woman, in the aftermath of an unusual and humiliating seduction, reacts in a clever if less-than-admirable fashion. Other tales uncover the "deep-holes" in a marriage, the unsuspected cruelty of children, and, in the title story, the yearnings of a nineteenth-century female mathematician.…
