About this product: From Canada’s new queen of suspense, another hugely entertaining supernatural thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat. Prepare to be enchanted . . .
Forget the cackling green hag in The Wizard of Oz, forget Samantha from Bewitched. Real witches are nothing, NOTHING like this. For years real witches have hidden their powers, afraid of being persecuted. They have integrated so well into the community, you could have a witch living right next door and never know about it. Take Paige, for instance, whom we first met in Kelley Armstrong’s novel Stolen. Just an ordinary twenty-something who runs her own website design company, worries about her weight and wonders if she’ll ever find a boyfriend. Okay, so she’s leader of the American Coven and guardian of Savannah, the teenage daughter of a black witch. Really, life is ordinary. But then a telekinetic half-demon, Leah O’Donnell, shows up to fight for custody of Savannah. And although Paige is ready for her, she’s not quite so prepared for the team of supernaturals that Leah brings with her, including a powerful sorcerer who claims to be Savannah’s father.
When all hell breaks loose -- literally -- and Paige is accused of witchcraft, Satanism and murder, the Coven, fearing exposure, abandons her. Cut off from her friends, Paige is forced against her better judgment to accept the help of a young sorcerer lawyer. And she quickly comes to realize that keeping Savannah could mean losing everything else.
Breathtakingly thrilling, hip and funny, this new novel is another page-turning triumph from an author who is going from strength to strength.

About this product: In Dime-Store Alchemy Charles Simic, one of contemporary America’s most idiosyncratic, engaging, and skillful poets, reflects on the art of the homegrown American surrealist Joseph Cornell. In a work that is in various degrees biography, criticism, and sheer poetry, Simic tells of Cornell’s life in Utopia Parkway, Queens and of how he loved to wander the streets of New York hunting for overlooked and unexpected odds and ends. He illuminates the hermetic mysteries of Cornell’s beautiful boxes, now in major museums throughout the world—works in which private obsessions were alchemically transformed into enduring works of art. Simic also sees Cornell’s work as exemplifying a distinctively American aesthetic, freed of slavish dependency on tradition, open to the world, improvisatory, at once homemade and universal, modest and teasing and profound. Full of unexpected riches, Dime-Store Alchemy is both an entrancing meditation on the nature of art and a perfect introduction to a major American artist by one of his peers, a book that can be perused at length or dipped into at leisure again and again.

About this product: "Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean" is one of the greatest dramatic pieces ever written for the stage. The story revolves around Mona who is just returning to McCarthy, Texas, for the 20th anniversary of James Dean's death in a tragic car accident. She was a founding member of the Disciples of James Dean and they all agreed to "come back to the five and dime" for a reunion. Juanita, the owner of the five and dime is still around. Other members such as Sissy, Edna Louise, and Stella May come back as well. In wonderful flashback sequences that are played by younger actors we see how the relationships of Mona, Sissy, and Joe have deveoloped in time. We also learn of the traumatic lives that these character have undergone such as Sissy's bout with cancer, Mona's feeling that James Dean is the father of her child, and Joe's assaults by other boys in his town. At the end of Act I a visitor comes that no one can recognize...but she insists she is a member of the Disciples. This is such a wonderful piece that it was brought to the big screen with Cher playing the role of Sissy. I recently played Joe in a production of this show and saw many tears and just plain shock from what was happening. There are some funny moments but they come no where near the dramatic content of the this piece. A must for any dramatic theatre group.
