  Beautifully rendered and psychologically astute tales of life, family, and art from a true American master “The Sunday Painter,” a surprisingly comic tale, is the account of an amateur artist whose obsession with distilling his work to its most basic form—light—leads to a mental breakdown. “The First Day of School” is a moving and intimately observed portrait of the courage summoned by an African American family in the early days of integration. In “The Covenant,” a thirteen-year-old boy is confronted with his own mortality and instinctually redirects his anger and confusion elsewhere—the first lesson of adulthood. Beneath the deceptively anecdotal narration of “The Swimmers at Pallikula” lie deep truths about the absurdity of life and death and the eternal struggle for self-knowledge.As the editor of The Norton Anthology of Short Fiction, a founder of the Association of Writers & Writing Programs (AWP), and a longtime teacher at the University of Iowa, Purdue University, and Brown University, R. V. Cassill influenced generations of American authors. In The Happy Marriage and Other Stories, this expert craftsman is at his most varied and vital.

  The Coach House Trailer Park's token "Recluse Cat Lady" rarely sets foot outside her trailer. To be precise, it only happens once a week, on the same day, at the same time; if Shelly can help it. 
  But one Friday morning in early April, Willow Goodhope from the cottage at Space Twelve shows up unannounced at Shelly's door, knocking her perfectly ordered world off its axis. When the stillness of Shelly's sanctuary is further interrupted by the Shadowman and his potentially dark intentions, she must find the courage to confront her past before she can step outside her comfort zone and sound the alarm. 
  Pick up Elderberry Croft: April Shadows to find out what kind of darkness is lurking outside Shelly's windows...
