THE SELECTED LETTERS OF THORNTON WILDER
(HarperCollins, $39.95)
Bryer, a professor emeritus of English, and Robin Wilder, a niece by marriage of Thornton Wilder, have edited some 300 letters written by “the man who knew everybody.” Wilder, best known for his plays, including Our Town, wrote novels, mentored younger writers, and hobnobbed with literati.

More about Politics & Prose
Politics & Prose
Our customers see us as a community center, a notion that we have fostered to the best of our ability. In this increasingly fragmented age people crave public places where they can relax with friends or in solitude. We have consciously attempted to provide this environment through our coffeehouse, and in the store with comfortable chairs for reading and relaxing (which we have provided since we opened fourteen years ago), and especially through our public events. We provide a mix of talks and readings to appeal to old and young, women and men, black and white—some for entertainment and others for raising issues.
