‎The Life of Reilly: The Best of Sports Illustrated's Rick Reilly‎

‎Total Sports Publishing 2000. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Very-nice clean condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Tight spine clean pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 272 pages. Witty irreverent opinionated honest laugh-out-loud funny -- these are just a few of the adjectives that have been used to describe the writing of Rick Reilly the six-time National Sportswriter of the Year who has entertained the readers of Sports Illustrated for 15 years with his unique perspective on the world of sports and life in general. Now in The Life of Reilly Rick has selected 66 of his finest stories to create a collection that is sure to amuse inform and provoke sports fans and non-fans alike. The book is organized around Reilly's seven Rs: Rants Raves Reality Roots Rough Wrecks and Royalty. His subjects range from the sublime -- UCLA coach John Wooden one of sports' most honorable men -- to the ridiculous -- Reilly's terrifying trip aboard an F-14D Tomcat fighter -- and also include a healthy dose of opinion on everything from the ubiquity of the Nike symbol to the overpaid brats we call professional athletes these days. There are features on sports greats rants against high-profile athletic programs tales of golfing glory in and out of the spotlight reflections on enduring values and the true meaning of sacrifice and personal stories about the Reilly family's trials and tribulations. Evident throughout is Reilly's trademark humor on ample display in his story of playing golf with President Clinton whom he finds himself with horror calling "Pard" his discussion of cheerleading mania "Cheerleaders from all over tried to write me hate mail but cheerleader hate mail is not terribly scary. They'd write 'I hope you die!' and put a little heart over the 'i.'" and his experience as the coach of a quirky Little League team his players are more concerned with how to eat sunflower seeds without using their hands than with the intricacies of baseball. Treat yourself to The Life of Reilly -- those who know Reilly's work will be pleased to revisit the master; those who don't will be thrilled to discover an extraordinary talent.

‎Humor Me: An Anthology of Funny Contemporary Writing Plus Some Great Old Stuff Too‎

‎New York New York U.S.A.: Ecco Pr 2010. Book. Fine. Hardcover. First Edition. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-new condition. Stated First Edition. Number line: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. Remainder mark on bootom. NO price clippings. Tight spine clean pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 321 pages. From Booklist Funny is as funny does and the writers in Frazier's zany anthology of amusement do humor exceptionally well. From the inimitable Roy Blount Jr. to the irrepressible Bruce Jay Friedman the wry Calvin Trillin to the withering David Sedaris a veritable who's who of contemporary and classic humorists examine all manner of human frailty through a slightly skewed lens. The fact that sometimes the humans are not of this earth or are oh say deceased bloodthirsty conquerors matters not at all. Frazier's point is that there is humor to be found everywhere. Indeed his own Lamentations of the Father in which the rules of parenthood are laid down in the voice of the Almighty sets the standard for other laugh-inducing entries such as Steve Martin's droll analysis of our new century in The Third Millennium: So Far So Good and Simon Rich's clever adults-versus-children table-turning scenario in Play Nice. With an accessible balance of short slapstick and cerebral satire Frazier's collection is good for more than a few laughs. --Carol Haggas Product Description Humor Me is a literary cavalcade of contemporary American funnymen and funnywomen of the page. Selected by the renowned humor-ist Ian Frazier and featuring more than fifty pieces of the greatest comic writing of our time the book includes such masters of the form as Roy Blount Jr. Bruce Jay Friedman Veronica Geng Jack Handey Garrison Keillor Steve Martin and Calvin Trillin as well as work by newer comic stars like Andy Borowitz Larry Doyle Simon Rich George Saunders and David Sedaris. The pieces were published in the past thirty years in such popular magazines as The New Yorker McSweeney's The Atlantic National Lampoon and Outside. But the book also includes a handful of older comic masterpieces that nobody in need of a laugh should ever be without among them classics by Bret Harte Elizabeth Bishop Donald Barthelme and Mark Twain.

‎Seven American Stylists from Poe to Mailer: An Introduction‎

‎University of Minnesota Press 1973. Ex-Library. Very Good. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Very-good clean ex-library hardback. Usual library markings. Inner pages are free from writing and tears. 318 pages. Tight spine clean pages. Product Description This book provides critical introductions biographical information and selected bibliographies for seven outstanding American literary stylists. It is based on the material of seven pamphlets in the series of University of Minnesota Pamphlets on American Writers: Edgar Allan Poe by Roger Asselineau George Santayana by Newton P. Stallknecht Stephen Crane by Jean Cazemajou Gertrude Stein by Frederick J. Hoffman Vladimir Nabokov by Julian Moynahan Robert Penn Warren by Paul West and Norman Mailer by Richard Foster. In an introduction Professor Wright finds many threads of similarity as well as diversity among the seven writers. He points out: "They seem at first about as miscellaneous a set of distinguished writers as American literature could provide but of all seven at least this can be said: that early in any discussion of their work we must talk of style." He observes that as American authors go they make an unusually cosmopolitan group but they belong to different eras and no two of them are associated with the same literary movement. All have written fiction but also poetry. They have produced works of various kinds - criticism autobiography translations plays opera libretti political commentary and film. Their common interest in style he suggests points to other similarities of structure and outlook peculiar perhaps to American stylists to American writers generally or even to literature since Poe. In conclusion he writes: "Mailer tells us that 'Style is character' and by this standard even the most bizarre of the writers before us is a solid citizen. But it is also possible to say that nowadays style is poetry and to claim for these seven stylists the name of poet.". University of Minnesota Press Hardcover‎

Gerber Lou Holtz and Pat Williams to name just a few. Their richly varied stories are poignant energizing and entertaining. Author and actor Malachy McCourt tells how a tattered biography of Gandhi stumbled on in his youth offered a shining example of true humility and planted the seeds that would help support his sobriety decades later. Bestselling author and physician Bernie Siegel M.D. tells how William Saroyan's The Human Comedy helped him realize that in order to successfully treat his patients with life-threatening illnesses "I had to help them live not just prevent them from dying." Actress Catherine Oxenberg reveals how at a life crossroads and struggling with bulimia a book taught her the transforming difference one person could make in the life of another-and why that person for her was Richard Burton.

Now Woodward tells the story of his long complex relationship with W. Mark Felt the enigmatic former No. 2 man in the Federal Bureau of Investigation who helped end the presidency of Richard Nixon."

NO writing marks or tears inside book. 274 pages. Synopsis: The magnificent title story of this collection of fairy tales for adults describes the strange and uncanny relationship between its extravagantly intelligent heroine--a world renowned scholar of the art of story-telling--and the marvelous being that lives in a mysterious bottle found in a dusty shop in an Istanbul bazaar. As A.S. Byatt renders this relationship with a powerful combination of erudition and passion she makes the interaction of the natural and the supernatural seem not only convincing but inevitable. The companion stories in this collection each display different facets of Byatt's remarkable gift for enchantment. They range from fables of sexual obsession to allegories of political tragedy; they draw us into narratives that are as mesmerizing as dreams and as bracing as philosophical meditations; and they all us to inhabit an imaginative universe astonishing in the precision of its detail its intellectual consistency and its splendor. "A dreamy treat. It is not merely strange it is wondrous." --Boston Globe "Alternatingly erudite and earthy direct and playful. If Scheherazade ever needs a break Byatt can step in indefinitely." --Chicago Tribune "Byatt's writing is crystalline and splendidly imaginative. These are perfectly formed tales." --Washington Post Book World. Vintage Books Paperback‎
