The Holocaust Kid Sonia Pilcer The Holocaust Kid belongs to the growing body of work by authors who are children of Holocaust survivors. In these interconnected stories, we follow Genia and Heniek Palovsky and their daughter in their postwar life, from the Displaced Persons camp in Germany where Zosha is born to New York City, where Heniek works in a knitting mill and Genia cultivates a circle of survivor friends. Zosha is a writer. Obsessed with events that took place before her birth, Zosha's entire life is touched by the Holocaust. Reserve The Holocaust Kid |

Retribution and other Stories John Fulton The stories in John Fulton's striking debut collection are set in cars, laundromats, motels, and diners, where his characters struggle with the demands of loyalty, love, loss and desire. A teenage girl attempts to lose her virginity while her mother dies at home; a middle-aged casanova passes himself off as Barry Manilow; two boys accompany their unhinged mother on a journey of self-destruction across the Utah desert. Forthright and delicate, these stories mark the arrival of a welcome new voice. Reserve Retribution and other Stories |

The Selected Stories of Patricia Highsmith Patricia Highsmith Texas-born Patricia Highsmith is only now, six years after her death, being recognized for her inestimable genius in her native land. With the savage humor of Evelyn Waugh and the macabre sensibility of Edgar Allan Poe, she brought a distinct twentieth-century acuity to her prolific body of noir fiction. She was unrivaled in capturing the ways in which our seemingly benign neighbors can become the psychopaths next door. Now, five of her classic short story collections are combined in a single volume. Reserve The Selected Stories of Patricia Highsmith |

A Treasury of Great Christian Stories Stephen Fortosis, Editor This thoughtful tome brings together stories and excerpts from excellent Christian writers and storytellers from the past and present. From John Bunyan's classic Pilgrim's Progress and C.S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia to the writings of Walter Wangerin and Ruth Bell Graham, these stories give glimpses into childhood pleasures, adolescent growing pains, grown-up lessons in maturity, and ultimately the Christian's victory over death.
