The poems in Hartley Field are by turns witty and amusing, lyrical and moving. But always they are clear and -direct. Wanek writes clever, closely observed poems on subjects as diverse as ''Butter'' and ''the Hammer,'' work which is in the tradition of Francis Ponge and Pablo Neruda. These are often humorous and are enormous fun to read. Similarly, a number of poems focus upon children's games and activities (''Checkers'' and ''Jump Rope,'' among others), and explore them physically and psychologically. What is most remarkable about this collection is the consistent originality of the imagery and elegance of language. In the poem ''Late September,'' we find ''a plumed of smoke hand-feeding the wind.'' The object poem ''lemon'' observes that the fruit has ''bumpers on both ends like a Volks wagon.'' A racoon advancing into a dark yard is described as ''a creature both manly and womanly/capable of force or seduction.'' Here is the first stanza of the elegiac ''After Us.'' Rain is falling through the roof. And all that prospered under the sun the books that opened in the morning and closed at night, and all day turned their pages to the light. . . . Joyce Sutphen says of Wanek, ''Nothing about what she says or sees is routine...(Hartley Field) is a book of revelations; in poem after poem, some ordinary object or event is split open with such keen tenderness that the heart is caught off guard.'' Connie Wanek was born in 1952 and lives in Duluth, Minnesota. She is the author of Bonfire, published in 1997 by New Rivers Press. Her poems have appeared in The Atlantic Monthly, Poetry, The Virginia Quarterly, Country Journal, and many other publications. She has been awarded fellowship support from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council and The Jerome Foundation.

Two Caravans is the hilarious and engaging second novel from bestselling author Marina Lewycka. A field of strawberries in Kent... And sitting in it are two caravans - one for the men and one for the women. The residents are from all over: miner's son Andriy is from the old Ukraine, while sexy young Irina is from the new: they each other warily. There are the Poles, Tomasz and Yola; two Chinese girls; and Emauel from Malawi. They're all here to pick strawberries in England's green and pleasant land. But these days England's not so pleasant for immigrants. Not with Russian gangster-wannabes like Vulk, who's taken a shine to Irina and thinks kidnapping is a wooing strategy. And so Andriy - who really doesn't fancy Irina, honest - must set off in search of that girl he's not in love with. 'Immensely appealing. All but sings with zest for life...could hardly be more engaging, shrewd and winningly perceptive' Sunday Times 'Extremely funny, closely observed insights, scenes of farce, tragedy and horror' The Times Literary Supplement 'Hilarious and horrifying, Two Caravans is funny, clever and well observed' Guardian Bestselling author Marina Lewkyca has received great critical acclaim since the publication of her hilarious first novel A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian in 2005, which was the winner of the Bollinger Everyman Prize for Comic Fiction 2005, winner of the Saga Award for Wit 2005, shortlisted for the Orange Prize for Fiction 2005 and longlisted for the Booker prize 2005. Her other humorous novels We Are All Made of Glue and Various Pets Alive and Dead are also available from Penguin. Two Caravans is published as Strawberry Fields in the USA and Canada.

“Why…does my heart hurt so much…?” Akira is troubled by recurring dreams—or are they memories?—of an attractive blond stranger who somehow feels very precious to her. Meanwhile, Pure has spent much of the past year searching in vain for Akira, her one true love. Thanks to Ruri’s time reversal experiment, the meddling visitor from the future has been set on a different path—one that doesn’t interfere with his plans to alter the timeline so drastically that Pure will never unite with her amore! Only time will tell what the future holds! !
