The Corrigan Women
On the eve of the First World War, 15-year-old Bertha Ryan leaves home to work in the Cove as the hired girl in the troubled Corrigan household, setting in motion an intense family drama. Pregnant and terrified, Bertha marries one of her mistress's sons, with tragic results. Her daughter Carmel fares no better: during the Second World War, madly in love, she "marries" a bigamist American soldier. Leaving her child with Bertha, she heads for Boston and toils in a boot factory to support herself and them. The full weight of accumulated shame falls upon the last of the Corrigan women, Carmel's daughter Tessie, who finds herself caught in the crossfire between the ways of the Cove and the world beyond Newfoundland. With its richly textured portrayal of outport life and its raw emotional energy, Dohaney's beloved first novel is a contemporary classic. Long unavailable, The Corrigan Women is the first book in the trilogy that ends with the critically acclaimed A Fit Month for Dying.

Music, Art, and Metaphysics
This is a long-awaited reissue of Jerrold Levinson's 1990 book Music, Art, and Metaphysics, which gathers together the writings that made him a leading figure in contemporary aesthetics. Most of the essays are distinguished by a concern with metaphysical questions about artworks and their properties, but other essays address the problem of art's definition, the psychology of aesthetic response, and the logic of interpreting and evaluating works of art. The focus of about half of the essays is the art of music, the art of greatest interest to Levinson throughout his career. Many of the essays have been very influential, being among the most cited in contemporary aesthetics and having become essential references in debates on the definition of art, the ontology of art, emotional response to art, expression in art, and the nature of art forms.
I Dare to Say
Featuring the real-life experiences of contemporary African women who tell of atrocities, pain, motherhood, marriage, love, and courage in their daily life, this gripping collection brings greater awareness to a continuing struggle. Denied a voice by their own culture for centuries, these women speak out for the first time, sharing poignant tales of abuse and womanhood robbed, revealing their methods of survival, and divulging their dreams for themselves and their children. A girl describes hiding under a blanket from the Lord's Resistance Army in search of child brides; a woman speaks of her family abuse and rejection followed by the deaths of her child and partner only to learn later that the father of her child was already married with eight children and had AIDS. Dramatic, sometimes heartbreaking, often inspiring, this is the first book to truly show what it means to be a 21st-century African woman.
