Synopsis

In "SUSAN COOLIDGE Ultimate Collection (Illustrated)," readers are invited to explore the wealth of Coolidge's literary output, which includes both her beloved novels and her lesser-known works. Known for her engaging prose and rich character development, Coolidge's works often reflect themes of adolescence, friendship, and the challenges of growing up. The collection is beautifully illustrated, enhancing the reader's experience as they delve into the charming world of her narratives, set against the backdrop of 19th-century America. With her keen observations and an evocative style, Coolidge captivates readers by weaving timeless lessons into the fabric of her storytelling. Susan Coolidge, the pen name of Sarah Chauncey Woolsey, was an American author and poet whose own experiences as a young girl shaped her writing. Raised in a nurturing environment that valued literature and creativity, her works, particularly "What Katy Did," resonate with her insights into childhood and familial relationships. Coolidge's background and personal challenges fuel her empathetic voice, making her stories accessible and relatable to readers across generations. This collection is a must-read for enthusiasts of children's and young adult literature, as it encapsulates the essence of Coolidge's contributions to the literary canon. Readers seeking a blend of nostalgia and wisdom will find inspiration in her tales, while the exquisite illustrations bring her vivid worlds to life.

    Metamorphosis by Mike Curry - Only when the last man died would the dim wastes of Asmarad be less lonely. 
    His name was Hrlec Brey. He was a big man, and he moved slowly as if he had all the time in the world. 
    And he had. He had all the time—years and years behind him, years and years ahead. And the world was his, its length and breadth, its skies and seas, the solitude of night, the loneliness of day. 
    He was eating dinner when the knowledge smashed across his mind: Tonight I am going to die. 
    He put down his leg of ayala and stared blankly at the plank wall across the room. That he was going to die did not disturb him. That he knew about it did. It was not whimsy that had crossed his mind. He was not given to idle speculation. It was as if a sense of precognition had suddenly developed in his intellect. It was a strange, irrevocable certainty. 
    His gaze fell on the half-eaten leg of ayala, and he shrugged. A crime to let it go to waste, impending death or not. He picked it up, moved his jaw slowly around the bone. So I'm going to die. Tomorrow I'll be free. Then his eyes hardened and his teeth tore savagely at the last bite of meat. I haven't evolved. 
    Moving slowly because the pains had been with him all day—he called them "pains" because there seemed no better word—he washed off the table and went out to the front porch of his small farmhouse on Ophiuchus VI to sit in the twilight and smoke his pipe. He was a man of fifty Earth years, whom age had weathered and work had bent, and the strongest thing about him was his will. He had willed to remain sane in his solitary world after the tragedy so many years before, and he had made it. Just made it. He did not even talk to himself.

We Carry the Sun is a tribute to pioneering thinkers, a celebration of humankind’s relationships with the natural world, and a shimmering ode to the resource that sustains us. 
      
    "More than a resource about the history of solar energy, it’s also a look at stepwise progress made by standing on the shoulders of those who have come before."—Publishers Weekly
