A Literary Appreciation of Power Pop

Go All The Way

"New York Times-bestselling author Jim Harrison (1937-2016) was a writer with a poet's economy of style and a trencherman's appetites. Best known for fiction and poetry, Harrison was also a prolific nonfiction writer, with columns running in Sports Illustrated and Esquire, and work in Outside, Field &amp; Stream, and others. Written with Harrison's trademark ribald humor, compassion, and full-throated zest for life, The Search for the Genuine is a collection of pieces-from the near-classic to the never-published-that muse on everything from grouse hunting and ocean fishing to Zen Buddhism and matters of the spirit, as well as reporting on Yellowstone and shark-tagging in the open Atlantic, commentary on writers from Bukowski to Neruda to Peter Matthiessen, and a heartbreaking essay on life-and, for those attempting to cross in the ever-more-dangerous gaps, death-on the US-Mexico border. Written with Harrison's trademark humor, compassion, and full-throated zest for life, this chronicle of a modern bon vivant is a feast for fans who may think they know Harrison's nonfiction, from a true "American original" (San Francisco Chronicle)"--

Nonfiction, 1970-2015

The Search for the Genuine

David Hume reshaped, redirected, and re-energised the English essay. His sceptical, rational, self-questioning persona created what amounted to a new intellectual arena, in which it was possible to think afresh about the world and the self. When he famously wrote that 'the life of man is of no greater importance to the universe than that of an oyster', something had changed. David Womersley has spent a lifetime studying the literature of the eighteenth century. This definitive new two-volume edition of the essays follows Hume's division of his essays into two parts, and allows the modern reader to enjoy this extraordinary writer in all his moods, from benign optimism to gloomy foreboding. The editorial apparatus supplies indispensable intellectual and bibliographical context for these rewarding, humane, and yet also subtly provocative writings. Volume 2 is published simultaneously.

The Gifts of Reading for the Next Generation

"A collection of poems and translations drawn from C.D. Wright's archives and from her previous books"--

The Essential C.D. Wright

The search for happiness is without a doubt one of our greatest preoccupations. In this fascinating volume of essays and anecdotes, influential writers from classical times to the early 20th century explore what it means to be happy. Whilst Epicurus sets out some principles for happiness, Jerome K. Jerome suggests with characteristic wit that we eat, drink and be merry and Ralph Waldo Emerson explains how friendship contributes to a happy state. Writer Zachary Seager has selected and introduced an inspiring array of insightful writing which combines self help, erudition and dazzling wisdom to create a book to treasure and to guide you through life. Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning, cloth-bound, pocket-sized classics. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover.

The City and the World

89 Words followed by Prague, A Disappearing Poem

A brand new volume of previously unpublished writings from the archives reflecting Jack Kerouac’s Buddhist thinkingFrom a young age Kerouac was a spiritual thinker and questioner, and he always considered himself a spiritual writer. Buddhism gave more meaning to Jack’s work as a writer: he was working not for personal accomplishment and glory but for human betterment. And Buddhism justified his lifestyle: with its vision of the material world as empty and illusory, he was free to do what he wanted.This collection shows Jack at his earnest, soulful best. The writing is consistently and wonderfully Kerouacian: it is honest, reflective, heartfelt, and revealing, with great characterizations amid his self-exploration as he wrestles with his consciousness, desperate for belief.

The Buddhist Years

A beautifully illustrated celebration of the biology, culture, art, and taste of oysters—a perfect gift for the foodie or the artist in your life. Everyone recalls eating their first oyster, just like they remember their first kiss … Portrait of an Oyster delves beyond the shucked shell to reveal the rich and surprising world of the oyster and the artists, philosophers, explorers, and chefs the mollusk has inspired across the centuries. Illustrated with full-color paintings, vintage advertisements, line drawings, and archival photographs, Portrait of an Oyster shares intriguing insights into the biology and cultivation of oysters as the author embarks on an expedition across Europe and North America to taste some of the world’s best. Did you know that oysters shift their gender several times over the course of their lifetimes? They have one muscle that serves to keep their two shells clamped firmly shut, and a heart and basic circulatory system largely dependent on seawater—although they have no brain or known nervous system. In the French region of Marennes-Oléron—where much of the technology of modern oysters farming was pioneered—oysters are still considered among the finest in the world. Like champagne, oysters from this region are protected by geographic distinction laws, with some even getting initials lasered into their shells, to preserve their prestige. Portrait of an Oyster travels across France, Europe, and North America, sampling some of the best oysters and restaurants in the world, including in the UK and Copenhagen, and then Boston, New York, New Orleans, and San Francisco. This book’s stunning features include:<ul><li>Full-color paintings, vintage advertisements, and archival photographs.</li><li>Intriguing insights into the biology, reproduction, and cultivation of oysters.</li><li>Sumptuous travelogs to renowned oyster restaurants and oyster farms.</li><li>Unique backmatter: A glorious guide to global oyster varieties, with drawings and descriptions of each specimen.</li></ul>
