 | Emerald Lizard by Don Bell, Pleasant DeSpain
For the past three decades, Pleasant DeSpain has explored Latin America -- its countries, countrysides, customs, cultures, and especially, its stories. His experiences with the people and folklore of Latin America brought him closer to understanding his eventual role of storyteller. While his repertoire of traditional world folktales includes narratives from almost every culture around the globe, DeSpain's talent shines even brighter when relating the legends from Latin America. His exploration of the heart and soul of this enormous region demonstrates his passion for Latin America and its people and their stories. The fifteen tales told in The Emerald Lizard are full of compassionate souls, tricks and humor, explanations of nature and geography -- and always, fine storytelling. Mario Lamo-Jimenez's Spanish translation reverberates with the rich, vibrant quality for which Latin tales are known. AUTHOR: Don Bell, Pleasant DeSpain

 | Selected Essays of Lionel Trilling
A literary and critical giant during his life, Lionel Trilling slid somewhat out of favor after his death, when literary criticism became hostile to Trilling's unclassifiable combination of a tight focus on the texts at hand with a broad view of culture, psychology, and politics. This book brings some of his best work back into print for the first time since his death, and contains essays on Austen, Twain, Hemingway, Wordsworth, Keats, Eliot, and Frost. It also includes Art and Neurosis and the preface to Trilling's revered book, THE LIBERAL IMAGINATION.
