I this story collection crackles with the

energy o youth, it also eels written by a

cool-eyed soul reincarnated at least three

times. . . . By turns unny and pitiless, these

tales amount to a vision. The books voice is

unorced in its ready wit, detached compas-

sion. There is an admirable candor. Each

characters sexuality seems the natural

outcome o a lie ully risked.

Allan Gurganus, contest judge and author

oThe Practical Heart and Oldest Living

Conederate Widow Tells All

I cant recall the last time I tore through a

story collection with such unbridled gratitude.Christine Sneed is earless. She sends her her-

oines zooming toward the disasters oretold

in their own sot hearts, but she does so with-

out histrionics. Shes brutally honest and

equally tender about the manners in which

women fnd themselves entrapped. To call her

a rightul heir to Grace Paley and Lorrie Moore

is accurate but insufcient. Portraits o a Few o

the People Ive Made Cry is a stone-cold mira-

cle, and Christine Sneed is my new hero.

American olk art has been studied exhaus-

tively rom the standpoint o the objects

themselves, but Elizabeth Stillingers long-

awaited book is the frst to take a compre-

hensive look at the materials earliest

collectors and their motivations. . . . The

clarity o Stillingers writing makes her

extraordinary intellectual synthesis not only

accessible but appealing to laymen and

scholars alike.

Responses o e inii series nnouncemen

e been ig orbe:

The work o Bruce and Taeko Brooks is unique.

. . . They have brought to the feld the proven

methodology o Classical philology and appliedit to long unsolved problems concerning the date

and structure o the Chinese classical texts . . . the

result has been a revolution in the understanding

o these texts, and in their proper use as sources

or history.

Christopher I. Beckwith, Indiana University

The picture the Brookses have built up, piece

by piece, over the years deeply alters our under-

standing o the classical texts, o the nature othe dialogue among thinkers, and o the actual

history o early China.

Haun Saussy, Yale University

Through a systematic eort, we get a general

chronology including all the major texts, and this

eort has shown a degree o interconnectedness

that ew would have anticipated.

Jrg Schumacher, Universit de Genve

Every one o the publications planned in this

series will make a major contribution in establish-

ing a new paradigm or our understanding o the

key philosophical, political, and historical texts

. . . how these texts spoke to each other, and how

they evolved in dynamic dialogue with each other.
