How A Cantor And His Family Transformed A Klansman
BY KATHRYN WATTERSON Watterson tells how a Grand Dragon of the KKK, who was also a major Midwestern link in America's white supremacy movement, renounced his racist and Nazi activities after being befriended by a Jewish cantor and his family. Stories of the African-American, Vietnamese and Jewish communities and their history in Nebraska, as well as an examination of the inner life of one of the nation's terrorists in the white supremacy movement, provide a larger context for this story about hatred and love, courage and transformation, in America today. "Not by the Sword is," according to Cornel West, "one of the most powerful, painful, yet healing stories about our most explosive issue - race."

Notes From An Exhibition A Novel
BY PATRICK GALE This British novel is about a family struggling with the death of the gifted, bi polar artist who is the mother of the family. Only the father's staunch Quaker beliefs give them any chance of withstanding her destructive influence and the suspicion that they came second to her art. The reader becomes a detective, piecing together the clues of her life, as artist, lover, mother, wife and patient. The story takes them from today's Penzance to 1960s Toronto to St Ives in the 1970s. What emerges is a story of enduring love, and of a family which weathers tragedy, mental illness and the intolerable strain of living with genius.
