Hardback. Condition: Good. The In between is a collection of poems that speak of love, loss, hurt, and joy. Some are abstract, exploring the grandeur of the Almighty, the power of love, and the intensity of rejection. Others are focused on events, like Sunday football, and encounters with people and places. They are a rollercoaster of emotion and imagery, reflecting the rise and fall of a life in transition. Each poem tells its own story, a snapshot of the ordinary everyday, and the musings of the poet as she navigates her way through the in between. Sarah Elbert (illustrator).…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Like her later works for children, Alcott's first novel is well and imaginatively written, highly moralistic, unlikely, and moving. --The Antioch Review Moods, Louisa May Alcott's first novel, was published in 1864, four years before the best-selling Little Women. The novel unconventionally presents a little woman, a true-hearted abolitionist spinster, and a fallen Cuban beauty, their lives intersecting in Alcott's first major depiction of the woman problem. Sylvia Yule, the heroine of Moods, is a passionate tomboy who yearns for adventure. The novel opens as she embarks on a river camping trip with her brother and his two friends, both of whom fall in love with her. These rival suitors, close friends, are modeled on Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau. Aroused, but still moody and inexperienced, Sylvia marries the wrong man. In the rest of the novel, Alcott attempts to resolve the dilemma she has created and leaves her readers asking whether, in fact, there is a place for a woman such as Sylvia in a man's world. In 1882, eighteen years after the original publication, Alcott revised and republished the novel. Her own literary success and the changes she helped forge in women's lives now allowed her heroine to meet, as Alcott said, a wiser if less romantic fate than in the former edition. This volume contains the complete text of the 1864 Moods and Alcott's revisions for the 1882 version, along with explanatory notes by the editor. Sarah Elbert is a professor of history at the State University of New York, Binghamton. She is the author of A Hunger for Home: Louisa May Alcott's Place in American Culture (Rutgers University Press, 1987).…
