Paperback. Condición: new. Sweet, M. Anne; Crist, Larry Ilustrador. Paperback. Hank Mitchell, a former mercenary, gets five years hard time for stealing a tubful of women's underwear. He doesn't appeal his sentence because he wants to atone for all the blood he's spilled. Inspired by the novels of Genet, Camus, and the Marquis de Sade that he finds in the prison library and comforted by the love of his young cellmate, Mitch finds peace in his captivity as he writes his own secret history-a saga of family deception, sexual obsession, and contract killing at the behest of Mitch's own brother-in-law. Set in the U.S., South America, and moving to Europe as the story unfolds Mitch undergoes a major transformation but now his family wants him out of prison and back in the killing game.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Songs of Sadness is a volume of long poems featuring Josie Delgado: A Poem of the Central Valley but ranging from grief to memory, from historical violence to inheritance, and reflections on artistic lineage. The poetry makes a distinction between private poems and public work. The private poems assert that private poetic practice can harbor a writer's most powerful material. The poet places the poems in a lineage that reaches back to the Iliad but includes reference to St. John Perse and Derek Walcott-that positions the volume within a lineage of epic, extended poetic writing.

Paperback. Condición: new. Sweet, M. Anne Ilustrador. Paperback. The Book of Changes - Book Three of the California Quartet - is a kaleidoscopic, episodic novel set in Berkeley in the late '70s. The story is built from a sequence of sharply drawn, self-contained yet thematically linked stories. Across its many vignettes (titles like The Story Revolution, The White Wings of Death, City of Light, The Gorgon 2314, The Woman in Red, The Politics of Cynicism. The book explores identity, transformation, artistic struggle, and the forces-psychological, cultural, and historical-that shape human lives. The style moves with ease between realism, surrealism, philosophy, and satire, creating a collage-like portrait of characters in moments of crisis, revelation, or reinvention. The effect is a meditative, sometimes confrontational examination of change itself, delivered with a distinctive blend of intensity, lyricism, and intellectual rigor.
