A book should not be judged by its cover, it is often said, but what about its opening lines? The very first [few] sentence[s] of any piece of writing is[are] arguably the best and most important. The beginning of an oeuvre enjoys all of the praise but it also carries big daunting tasks. It hooks the reader in and does justice to the body of work that it is introducing. With so many books to read and choose from, a fair and great starting can really set the tone for the entire story and define its legacy for decades to come.

Dear Reader, IN THE BEGINNING presents the all-important first sentence of 1,000 famous and not-so-famous novels (plus a handful of short stories). A smorgasbord of popular fiction from around the world, ideally, these opening lines will have a tremendous attraction for lovers of literature everywhere. IN THE BEGINNING is more than just a novelty book. Anyone who loves books not only enjoys being reminded of their favorites, but also delights in finding a good one they’ve missed. Those who relish reading and writing will savor a collection that brings back memories of beloved books, and often, the times in which they were read. From Virginia Woolf to Tom Wolfe, from Edith Wharton to Stephen King, from Ernest Hemingway to Gabriel Garcia Marquez, masterpieces of world literature are juxtaposed with trendy best-sellers, romances with westerns, classics with cult favorites. Some lines are well-remembered, others rarely recalled; still others are brilliant beginnings from relatively obscure books. But in every case, IN THE BEGINNING confirms how powerful a sentence can be. Bumping into a familiar line from a beloved novel fills the reader’s mind with imagery. (“The great fish moved silently through the night water, propelled by short sweeps of its crescent tale.” (Jaws, by Peter Benchley). While dazzling openers don’t guarantee a worthwhile novel, expectations run high when we’re introduced with: “Paint me a railroad station then, ten minutes before dark.” (John Cheever’s Bullet Park) or “There were 117 psychoanalysts on the Pan-Am flight to Vienna and I’d been psychoanalyzed by at least six of them.” (Fear of Flying by Erica Jong). Some books reach their zenith with wonderful first lines that are never matched: “I had this story from one that had no business to tell it to me, or to any other.” That’s our initial meeting with the Tarzan series. Conversely, some rather mundane opening lines are made better because we know the marvelous story that follows, like B. Traven’s Treasure of the Sierra Madre: “The bench on which Dobbs was sitting was not so good.” Perhaps not truly memorable, but a truly unforgettable character, and Bogie didn’t do badly by him either. Enjoy. Hans Bauer

The Mystery To This Book ...is to make you smile, laugh, or just shake your head. Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, Ôand what is the use of a book, Õ thought Alice Ôwithout pictures or conversations?Õ And then the murders began. AliceÕs Adventures In Wonderland, By Lewis Carroll It all started with a small quote from Marc Laidlaw who created a nice approach to revisiting first lines of books. His 3 March 2017 tweet said, ÒThe first line of almost any story can be improved by making sure the second line is, 'And then the murders began.'Ó You can try this for yourself as you go Ð take only the first line and add ÒAnd then the murders began.Ó The results are more often than not incredibly hilarious. And even non-fiction can be as surprising. Above all, the idea is to have fun. Get Your Copy Now.

In Jacques Derrida: Opening Lines, Marian Hobson gives us a thorough and elegant analysis of this controversial and seminal contemporary thinker. Looking closely at the language and the construction of some of Derrida's philosophy, Hobson suggests the way he writes, indeed the fact he writes in another language, affects how he can be understood by English speakers. This superb study on the question of language will make illuminating reading for anyone studying or engaged with Derrida's philosophy.

A poignant and suspenseful retelling of a classic fairy tale set in a war-torn world, for readers of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, We Were the Lucky Ones, and Lilac Girls In the last months of the Nazi occupation of Poland, two children are left by their father and stepmother to find safety in a dense forest. Because their real names will reveal their Jewishness, they are renamed “Hansel” and “Gretel.” They wander in the woods until they are taken in by Magda, an eccentric and stubborn old woman called a “witch” by the nearby villagers. Magda is determined to save them, even as a German officer arrives in the village with his own plans for the children. Louise Murphy’s haunting novel of journey and survival, of redemption and memory, powerfully depicts how war is experienced by families and especially by children.
