Excerpt from Our Home City "Let a man but have an aim, a purpose, and opportunities to attain his end shall start forth like buds at the kiss of spring. Say not thou lackest talent What talent had any of the great ones better than their passionate trust in the efficacy of labor? The main thing is to have an aim and to pursue it with perseverance. There are no opportunities for those who have no life purpose." - Bishop Spalding. "How true are those old Arabian Nights fables. Mocking and whispering, and abuse loud and low by turns, from all the black stones beside the road, when one living soul is toiling up the hill to get the cooling water. Mocking and whispering, that he may look back, and become a black stone like themselves." - Ruskin. "Without earnestness nothing can be achieved, but marvelous results follow from the diligent devotion of ones powers, time, and money to the accomplishment of a design steadily held in view. Let a man have good faith, a serious purpose, persevering industry, and a resolve to honor truth by use, and his course shall be upward from out the shadows and the gloom into the light of a free, a noble, and a blessed life." Goethe. All great and worthy work is done under the in spiration of ideals. The sculptor is looking, not at: the things that are seen, but at things that are unseen, when he calls the angel out of the marble.

There is no greater truth about ourselves than the past we have uncovered.... It was time to acknowledge our loved ones who were captured, bound, and herded to other lands and stripped of their birthright. It was time for my family to open that door and embrace this part of our past. Weslynn Allen refuses to sit silently as her family legacy becomes forever hidden in family members gone and almost forgotten. Initiated by an enlightening conversation with her father, Weslynn realizes the keys to the past lies solely within her generation. She takes on the challenge, and years of research takes her far from the Low Country lifestyle, Spanish moss-covered oak trees, and vast marshlands in her hometown of Savannah to pinpoint family histories farther than her beloved South. Following the desire to discover her heritage, Weslynn's inquiries lead her from the back roads of Georgia, to the rice fields of South Carolina, and ultimately, to Africa. Within the pages of censuses and helpful interviews with family members, a bloodline is found, promising the Allen's birthright will be told. Produced as a labor of love, from slave trade to a bright future, Weslynn documents the beautiful branches of a family tree that was almost lost. Follow her blueprint in Trace.

Short stories from the 1930s that remain as timely as the day they were written Falling in love. Falling out of love. Getting a job. Losing a job. Being too young. Being too old. Tess Slesinger's short stories deal with themes as timely as the day they were written. Though an activist in radical politics, her foremost concern was always with the hopes, fears, foibles, and needs of individual men and women. Her gift for subtle observation and gentle satire make the stories in TIME: THE PRESENT richly pleasurable on first reading--and deeply rewarding to revisit. With an introduction by Vivian Gornick and an afterword by Paula Rabinowitz

The city of Entralla – along with Gondal, Brobdingnag and the Emerald City – is not somewhere you are likely to have visited. Only one guidebook to the place exists, despite its historic landmarks and the considerable civic pride of its inhabitants. Alva and Irva are identical twin sisters, and Entralla is their home. By nature, Alva is an explorer, and longs to travel the world. Irva is a recluse, for whom every step outside the house is an ordeal. But the twins belong together and cannot survive without each other. It is when Irva refuses to leave the house at all that the major work of their lives begins: Alva wanders the city streets, observing, taking notes, measuring, and reporting her findings to Irva, who painstakingly recreates a miniature Entralla. In Alva and Irva, Edward Carey takes the reader on an enchanting journey through a city of the imagination; the twins are mesmerizing heroines whose conflicting desires contain the seeds of both their destruction and their salvation.
