Paperback. Etat : Good. In these powerfully rendered, prizewinning stories, working-class African Americans across the South strive for meaning and search for direction in lives shaped by forces beyond their control. The ten stories in this resonant collection deal with both the ties that bind and the gulf that separates generations, from children confronting the fallibility of their own parents for the first time to adults finding themselves forced to start over again and again.In Highway 18 a young Jehovah's Witness going door to door with an expert field-service partner from up north is at a crossroads: will she go to college or continue to serve the church? If You Hit Randolph County, You've Gone Too Far tells of a family trying to make it through a tense celebratory dinner for a son just out on bail. And in the collection's title story, a young girl experiences loss for the first time in the fallout from her father's relationship with her babysitter. Startling, intimate, and prescient on their own, these stories build to a kaleidoscopic understanding of both the individual and the collective black experience over the last fifty years in the American South. With We Are Taking Only What We Need, Stephanie Powell Watts has crafted an incredibly assured and emotionally affecting meditation on everything from the large institutional forces to the small interpersonal moments that impress upon us and directour lives.--New Yorker.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Poetry. DAYS LIKE THIS ARE NECESARY includes new poems as well as highlights from the 13-book career of Walter Bargen, first poet laureate of Missouri. Kevin Prufer writes in his foreword to the book, His work is technically sophisticated, rhythmically subtle, and emotionally complex, but--and here's the trick--it's also the kind of poetry that one might offer to someone who says he doesn't like poetry much, someone who says he doesn't get' poetry, someone who prefers mysteries or history books or biographies. In a perfect world, this book will go a long way toward bringing Walter Bargen's poetry to the much wider audience it deserves.…
