Agee, James A Death in the Family
Vintage Books USA 1998 0375701230 Trade Paperback New 320 pages
Forty years after its original publication, Agee's last novel seems, more than ever, an American classic. In its lyrical, sorrowful account of a man's death and its impact on his family, Agee has created an overwhelmingly powerful novel of innocence, tenderness, and loss that should be read aloud for the sheer music of its prose.

Agee, James Let us now Praise Famous Men
Mariner Books 2001 9780618127498 Paperback New 432 pages
This documentary work on the cotton sharecroppers of Alabama began as an article for Fortune magazine but was rejected because Agee refused to adopt the sterile, objective voice of conventional journalism. The resulting book, published in 1941 with photos by Walker Evans, ultimately reveals as much about Agee as it did about his subjects. It also served as a new model for this sort of nonfiction writing, presenting full and reverent portraits of three families in every aspect of their lives, rather than recording mere social statistics.

Ahmedi, Farah The Story of My Life: An Afgan Girl on the Other Side of the Sky
Simon Spotlight Entertainment 2006 9781416918370 Paperback New 249 pages
Farah Ahmedi's "poignant tale of survival" ("Chicago Tribune") chronicles her journey from war to peace. Equal parts tragedy and hope, determination and daring, Ahmedi's memoir delivers a remarkably vivid portrait of her girlhood in Kabul, where the sound of gunfire and the sight of falling bombs shaped her life and stole her family. She herself narrowly escapes death when she steps on a land mine. Eventually the war forces her to flee, first over the mountains to refugee camps across the border, and finally to America. Ahmedi proves that even in the direst circumstances, not only can the human heart endure, it can thrive. "The Other Side of the Sky" is "a remarkable journey" ("Chicago Sun-Times"), and Farah Ahmedi inspires us all.

Albee, Edward Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
New American Library 2006 0451218590 Paperback New 257 pages
"Twelve times a week," answered Uta Hagen, when asked how often she'd like to play Martha in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" Like her, neither audiences nor critics could get enough of Edward Albee's masterful play. A dark comedy, it portrays husband and wife George and Martha in a searing night of dangerous fun and games. By the evening's end, a stunning, almost unbearable revelation provides a climax that has shocked audiences for years. With the play's razor-sharp dialogue and the stripping away of social pretense, "Newsweek" rightly foresaw "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" as "a brilliantly original work of art-an excoriating theatrical experience, surging with shocks of recognition and dramatic fire ]that( will be igniting Broadway for some time to come."
