New in October: Child Wonder, Midnight Lantern, and The Wilding
Child Wonder by Roy Jacobsen
 "[Child Wonder]
is a wonderful, evocative yet in the end rather enigmatic story of a Norwegian
childhood where things seem to be going one way but are really going another.
If a story can be said to be both languid and propulsive at the same time it is
this one. It is really a quiet marvel. I enjoyed it immensely."
—Sheryl Cotleur, Book Passage (Corte Madera, CA)
Midnight Lantern: New and Selected Poems by Tess Gallagher
 “Lush, entrancing, and thorny, this invaluable retrospective is crowned
by 30 stellar new poems that find Gallagher in a beautifully earthy, coy,
sharply observant, and cosmically affectionate mode.”—Booklist
The Wilding by Benjamin Percy
*Now
available in paperback, featuring a reading group guide and other bonus materials*
 “At the core of this powerfully written first novel about
a father-son-grandson hunting and fishing expedition into the mountains of
Central Oregon stands an old theme in American fiction: the test of ordinary
folks against the wilderness. . . . Percy
writes a clean, clear, muscular sentence. . . . And he delineates his characters with a knife-sharp
psychological edge.”
—Alan Cheuse, All Things
Considered, NPR
