The American experience in stories that young and old love to tellIn the introduction to his latest August House collection, Pleasant DeSpain writes, Working as a professional storyteller I travel in every state in this country, and I have found stories worth hearing and telling again in each. Sweet Land of Story shows the proof is in the pudding with a compilation of stories from every part of the nation -- from the frozen tundra of Alaska to the lush green hills of Virginia; from the sweltering bayous of Louisiana to the windswept prairie of South Dakota.Each story is told in DeSpain's signature gentle, simple style, ensuring this collection's roles as a handy classroom tool and an on-my-own read for children in upper elementary and middle grades. Every child will surely find something of interest -- the stories range from practical and wise ones such as Old Joe and the Carpenter and Pulling the Rope to silly and scary ones such as The Haint that Roard and The Big, Smelly, Hairy Toe. According to the author, the stories' variety represents not only the diversity of the United States, but a storyteller's portrait of our nation's character.Sweet Land of Story embodies almost thirty years' worth of traveling, telling, and -- just as importantly -- listening for DeSpain. Each story is a microcosm of American culture: our various values, beliefs, and customs that differ from region to region yet retain a fundamental allegiance to the importance of passing that culture on through story. After all, DeSpain writes, it's our stories that tell us who we are.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. Sometimes it's the most unlikely meetings that give us life's greatest gifts.1970s, Southern Alabama. Sixty-two-year-old Jeremiah Lewis Taylor, or Nub, has spent his whole life listening to those he loves tell him he's no good--first his ex-wife, now his always-disapproving daughter. Sure, his escapades have made him, along with his cousin and perennial sidekick, Benny, just a smidge too familiar with small-town law enforcement, but he's never harmed anyone--except perhaps himself.Nub never meant to change his ways, but when he and fifteen-year-old Waffle House waitress Minnie form an unlikely friendship, he realizes for the first time that there may be some good in him after all. Six-foot-five Minnie has been dealt a full deck of bad luck--her father is a convicted murderer serving a life sentence, her mother is dead and buried, and she has a Grand Ole Opry-worthy singing voice with no place to perform. Oh, and there's the small fact that she's unexpectedly pregnant, courtesy of a no-good high-school boy.Gradually, Nub realizes the gift he's been given: a second chance to make a difference.Beloved Southern writer Sean Dietrich, also known as Sean of the South, once again brings people and places to life in this lyrical song-turned-story about found family, second chances, country music, and the poignant power of love and forgiveness.Heartwarming Southern fiction from Sean of the SouthStand-alone novelIncludes discussion questions for book clubsAlso by Sean Dietrich: The Incredible Winston Browne, Stars of Alabama, and>You Are My Sunshine.…

Hardback. Condición: Very Good. Winner of the 2023 Edgar Award for Best Fact Crime * A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice Part memoir and part literary true crime, Tell Me Everything is the mesmerizing story of a landmark sexual assault investigation and the female private investigator who helped crack it open. Erika Krouse has one of those faces. "I don't know why I'm telling you this," people say, spilling confessions. In fall 2002, Erika accepts a new contract job investigating lawsuits as a private investigator. The role seems perfect for her, but she quickly realizes she has no idea what she's doing. Then a lawyer named Grayson assigns her to investigate a sexual assault, a college student who was attacked by football players and recruits at a party a year earlier. Erika knows she should turn the assignment down. Her own history with sexual violence makes it all too personal. But she takes the job anyway, inspired by Grayson's conviction that he could help change things forever. And maybe she could, too. Over the next five years, Erika learns everything she can about P. I. technique, tracking down witnesses and investigating a culture of sexual assault and harassment ingrained in the university's football program. But as the investigation grows into a national scandal and a historic civil rights case that revolutionizes Title IX law, Erika finds herself increasingly consumed. When the case and her life both implode at the same time, Erika must figure out how to help win the case without losing herself.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good.
