Hardback. Condition: Very Good. How powerful is Lilah's imagination? If it smells like a monster, sounds like a monster, and in the shadows, looks like a monster, is it in fact a monster? It is Little Lilah's bedtime. As soon as it's lights out and her parents wish her sweet dreams, she feels an unexplained thump under her bed. Her imagination is being powered by her fear, so the noise must be a monster. Lilah's senses are overriding logic and convince her that there is in fact a monster under her bed. Lilah tames her overactive imagination to independently conquer her monster by changing the narrative in her imagination. Lilah awards herself with a Masters degree in Monsterology from Bravery University. To reassure herself, her blanket becomes her cape of courage. Lilah uses the power of her imagination to face her fear of what's under her bed, to problem solve and be self-reliant. Through changing the narrative, she convinces herself that she can overcome her fears and can face what's under her bed. She discovers that the monster under her bed is only, her bulldog Henri. Lilah manipulates her fears to gain confidence and understands what we see in the shadows is not always as it appears.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Novelist Vladimir Nabokov witnessed the horrors of his century, escaping Revolutionary Russia then Germany under Hitler, and fleeing France with his Jewish wife and son just weeks before Paris fell to the Nazis. He repeatedly faced accusations of turning a blind eye to human suffering to write artful tales of depravity. But does one of the greatest writers in the English language really deserve the label of amoral aesthete bestowed on him by so many critics?Using information from newly-declassified intelligence files and recovered military history, journalist Andrea Pitzer argues that far from being a proponent of art for art's sake, Vladimir Nabokov managed to hide disturbing history in his fiction--history that has gone unnoticed for decades. Nabokov emerges as a kind of documentary conjurer, spending the most productive decades of his career recording a saga of forgotten concentration camps and searing bigotry, from World War I to the Gulag and the Holocaust. Lolita surrenders Humbert Humbert's secret identity, and reveals a Nabokov appalled by American anti-Semitism. The lunatic narrator of>Pale Fire recalls Russian tragedies that once haunted the world. From Tsarist courts to Nazi film sets, from CIA front organizations to wartime Casablanca, the story of Nabokov's family is the story of his century--and both are woven inextricably into his fiction.…
