The Night Before Christmas Coloring Book
by O'Brien, John    Moore, Clement C.   
(Paperback - English - 9780486241692)
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick, wrote Clement Moore in 1822. Since then, his graphic Santa Claus image has become the world's. Moore's jolly old self, the reindeer-sleigh and chimney leap, the bag full of toys and visions of sugar plums so richly vivid in his poem, practically beg to be colored -- and now they can be, in this coloring book illustrated by John O'Brien. The text of the poem accompanies the drawings, most spread over two pages, which capture in marvelous detail that tingle of Christmas best sensed by children. ..

The Cambridge Companion to Rabelais
by O'Brien, John       
(Paperback - English - 9780521687287)
The Franciscan monk, humanist and physician Fran ois Rabelais, who flourished in sixteenth-century France, is widely considered as the Renaissance's greatest comic writer. His work - including most notably Gargantua and Pantagruel - continues to enthral readers with its complex and delicately crafted humour. 'Rabelaisian' and 'Gargantuan' have entered the lexicon but are often misunderstood; this Companion explains the literary and historical reality behind these notions. It provides an accessible account of Rabelais' major works and the contextual information and conceptual tools needed to understand the author and his world. The most up-to-date book on Rabelai ..

Notorious Antebellum North Alabama
by O'Brien, John       
(Paperback - English - 9781467141116)
Before the Civil War, North Alabama was infamous for lawlessness. The era saw courts filled with defendants who spanned the socioeconomic gamut--farmers, merchants and politicians. In 1811, John B. Haynes tore apart William Badger's house with his bare hands. Rodah Barnett ran a series of ill-reputed brothels in the early 1820s. In 1818, Rebecca Layman "accidentally" gave her husband sulfuric acid instead of rum. There is even a case of assault with frozen corn. Author John O'Brien relays these and more stories of the shady side of North Alabama during the antebellum period. ..

Stripper Lessons
by O'Brien, John       
(Paperback - English - 9780802135070)
John O'Brien's books have established him as a writer who communicated the voice of the loner with blistering realness and unmistakable force. Stripper Lessons is perhaps O'Brien's most interior and intense novel, a powerful story of one man's obsessive search to belong. Here is the dark and simple life of Carroll, a middle-aged, unmarried, friendless man whose only joy is watching beautiful women dance. Terribly shy and unable to socialize with the people around him, Carroll's fascination with the women at his favorite club is totally innocent-he finds solace in the routine, the rules, and the predictability of the action. But when his desire for a particular d ..

For nearly 20 years, the Review of Contemporary Fiction has celebrated and promoted the study of innovative fiction by featuring some of the most influential authors of the twentieth century.Recently the Review changed its format, and instead of several essays on the work of one or two authors the Review now features three or four authors with one long essay apiece devoted to the discussion of their writing careers.Still providing both an introduction to experimental fiction writers and interpretive strategies for reading their work, this new format allows for the inclusion of younger writers and those whose work has not been widely studied.Occasionally, the Rev ..
