Hard Back. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. Assumed First Edition. 336 Pages Indexed. There is a date on the front endpaper that reads Rec 16 July 03. No other marks of any sort. Ireland conjures up images of nature's majesty: sweeping coastlines, rolling green hills, and secluded peat bogs and marshlands. A pla…ce of legendary beauty, it is also a land with a rich natural history. Michael Viney invites us to discover the geologic forces that created the island, peer into the famous bone caves that hold unique clues about animals from long ago, and experience the dramatic scenes of the cliff-lined coast and tempestuous seas. Viney begins deep in the past, when rivers of molten rock and enormous glaciers stripped the land bare. Soon after the glaciers retreated, the island was transformed into a fresh, new landscape, home to an intriguing variety of plants and animals, and an environment that has cultivated a rich human history and inspired countless myths. Infused with the lyricism of Irish prose, this book is indispensable for anyone seeking to understand the natural beauty of the Emerald Isle. Barth, Brian - Designer (illustrator).

New York: Pantheon Books:, 2007. First edition, Hardcover, Fine in Fine dust jacket, 508 pp. Cover artwork by: Brian Barth "From the internationally acclaimed Australian writer: a single volume gathering a brilliant new collection of his short fiction, Every Move You Make, and all of his previously published stories. Bookish boy…s and taciturn men, strong women and wayward sons, fathers and daughters, lovers and husbands, a composer and his muse, a builder-architect and his legacy - here are their stories, whole lives brought dramatically into focus and powerfully rooted in the vividly rendered landscape of the vast Australian continent, from the mysterious, glittering Valley of Lagoons in Far North Queensland to bohemian Sydney to Ayres Rock in the Great Victoria Desert. These tender, subtle, and intimate stories give us men and women looking for something they seem to have missed, or missed out on, puzzling over not only their own lives but also the place they have come to occupy in the lives of others." First edition, Hardcover, Fine in Fine dust jacket. Brian Barth (illustrator).

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. In his first book, award-winning investigative journalist Brian Barth takes us on an immersive journey deep into Silicon Valley's homeless encampments, challenging everything we thought we knew about our unhoused neighbors."This heartfelt debut study from journalist Barth offers a window into…Silicon Valley's homeless encampments . . . An up-close, multifaceted representation of an unhoused community." -Publishers WeeklyIn his first book, award-winning investigative journalist Brian Barth takes us on an immersive journey deep into Silicon Valley's homeless encampments, challenging everything we thought we knew about our unhoused neighbors.In this wide-reaching portrait of the constellation of people living in tents, shacks, and cars in the shadow of tech campuses and skyscrapers, award-winning journalist Brian Barth introduces us to the misfits, activists, and iconoclasts of Silicon Valley's homeless encampments. Blending memoir, investigative reporting, history, and cultural criticism to paint a portrait of a community searching for dignity and connection in the midst of a national crisis, Front Street is a conversation-changing story about the struggle for housing.This immersive work follows residents of three distinct camps-Crash Zone in San Jose, Wood Street in Oakland, and Wolfe Camp in Cupertino. Regularly harassed by police and local government, and frequently at risk of often violent and always destabilizing sweeps, these camps may seem chaotic to some but more often than not, to their residents they are sites of refuge and rebirth. In research on 19th- and 20th-century homelessness and philosophical contemplations of communal anarchy, and through honest conversations with residents, Barth shows how the solution to homelessness isn't as straightforward as one might think.Front Street considers the root causes and possible solutions to chronic homelessness, contemplating political, economic, social and spiritual approaches alike. With empathy and poise, Barth follows this cast of characters, describing their personal stories, quotidian experiences, private philosophies and political activism. In doing so, Front Street explains why the country's current approach to homelessness has become at once cruel and ineffective and makes the radical argument that encampments, when treated generously and fairly, have something important to teach the rest of us about autonomy, dignity, connection and care. In his first book, award-winning investigative journalist Brian Barth takes us on an immersive journey deep into Silicon Valleys homeless encampments, challenging everything we thought we knew about our unhoused neighbours.

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. 1st Edition. As new condition cream boards, red spine, and gold spine lettering contained in an as new condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by Ha Jin; Author Dedication; Epilogue; Extracts From Nan Wu's Poetry Jou…rnal; Poems by Nan Wu and About the Author. "From Ha Jin, the widely acclaimed, award-winning author of Waiting and War Trash, comes a novel that takes his fiction to a new setting: 1990s America. We follow the Wu family - father Nan, mother Pingping, and son Taotao - as they fully sever their ties with China in the aftermath of the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre and begin a new, free life in the United States. At first, their future seems assured - Nan's graduate work in political science at Brandeis University would guarantee him a teaching position in China - but after the fallout from Tiananmen, Nan's disillusionment turns him toward his first love, poetry. Leaving his studies, he takes on a variety of menial jobs while Pingping works for a wealthy widow as a cook and housekeeper. As Nan struggles to adapt to a new language and culture, his love of poetry and literature sustains him through difficult, lean years. Ha Jin creates a moving, realistic , but always hopeful narrative as Nan moves from Boston to New York to Atlanta, ever in search of financial stability and success, even in a culture that sometimes feels oppressive and hostile. As Pingping and Taotao slowly adjust to American life, Nan still feels a strange, paradoxical attachment to his homeland, though he violently disagrees with Communist policy. And severing all ties - including his love for a woman who rejected him in his youth - proves to be more difficult than he could ever have imagined. Ha Jin's prodigious talents are evident in this powerful new book, which brilliantly brings to life the struggles and successes that characterize the contemporary immigrant experience. With its lyrical prose and confidant grace, A Free Life is a luminous addition to the works of one of the preeminent writers in America today." - from the inner front jacket flap. Weinstein, Iris (book design); Bauer, Jerry (author photograph); Barth, Brian (jacket design); Reed Darmon collection (jacket image) (illustrator).
