Blaze : a novel
At six foot seven, and just under three hundred pounds, Clay \"Blaze\" Blaisdell is a giant of a man, but his capers were purely small time until he met George Rackley. George introduced a slow-thinking Blaze to a past paced world of a hundred different cons and one big idea: Kidnapping the child of wealthy parents. Their intended mark is the definition of filthy rich, and the last twig on the Gerard family tree could be worth millions. There's only one problem: by the time the deal goes down, the brains of the partnership is dead. Or is he? Now a haunted Blaze is on the run from the authorities with a baby as a hostage, headed straight into the teeth of a howling snowstorn... the crime of the century transformed into sudden race against time in with whiteout hell of the Maine Woods.

New Essays on The Country of the Pointed Firs
This is a collection of new essays on one of the most important works of New England local colour fiction, The Country of the Pointed Firs by Sarah Orne Jewett. It builds on feminist literary scholarship that affirms the importance and value of Jewett's work, but goes beyond previously published studies by offering an analysis of how race, nationalism, and the literary marketplace shape her narrative. The volume constitutes a major rethinking of Jewett's contribution to American literature, and will be of broad interest to the fields of American literary studies, feminist cultural criticism, and American studies.
