"Studs Lonigan's Neighborhood" presents a fresh and surprising portrait of the South Side Chicago locale Studs Lonigan, Danny O'Neill, and their creator, novelist James T. Farrell, came up in nearly a century ago. Farrell, long a figure of critical neglect, has often been as freely misportrayed as the neighborhood he made famous. This book is certain to deeply enhance people's understanding of both. 106 pp. Book includes 52 photos, two maps, and appendices.

Four washashore drifters fulfil every tourist's fantasy when they luck into an idyllic, book-lined, hideaway off Provincetown's lush Back Street - rent free - as the lost war in Vietnam distantly flickers. Their cosy refuge is ruled by the great black cat, Obsidian, uncanny icon of the strange days and nights ahead.

Medical students, word enthusiasts and even patients will find this enlightening, mainly because medical author Brooks assumes readers have absolutely no background in Greek or Latin. He lists and explains suffixes, prefixes and roots separately and in alphabetical order so all the reader has to do is break down the fancy words and make common sense of them, piece by piece. He also lists names for body parts and functions with their English, Latin and Greek equivalents, and for true disciples has a short list of fun conditions, including those featuring a small, thick lizard head or a lung condition caused by fine dust from a volcano. Those with the gift can also use the lists to make up their own diseases or procedures, turning "bad hair" into the much more prestigious "malthricos" or something like it.
