    Pagan Papers-Kenneth Grahame
    13 Nov 2026
    Pagan Papers by Kenneth Grahame.

    We join our thoughtful author on a dreamy stroll at dusk through the English countryside, and listen to his nonchalant, slightly scattered musings on the human condition...everything from loafing about and old book collecting, to heavier topics like what is more valuable: memory or forgetfulness and can we connect back to nature, or is it too late to do so. All these ponderings, and more, are explored within. Published in 1898, this collection of essays is Kenneth Grahame's first complied work. His wry and witty humor, which later would be celebrated in his famous novel, The Wind in the Willows, shines through here.

  • World I Live In-Helen Keller

    World I Live In-Helen Keller
    10 Nov 2026
    World I Live In by Helen Keller.

    The World I Live In by Helen Keller is a collection of essays that poignantly tells of her impressions of the world, through her sense of touch, smell, her imagination and dreams. My hand is to me what your hearing and sight together are to you. In large measure we travel the same highways, read the same books, speak the same language, yet our experiences are different. All my comings and goings turn on the hand as on a pivot. It is the hand that binds me to the world of men and women. The hand is my feeler with which I reach through isolation and darkness and seize every pleasure, every activity that my fingers encounter. With the dropping of a little word from another's hand into mine, a slight flutter of the fingers, began the intelligence, the joy, the fullness of my life.

    Why We Love Music-Carl Emil Seashore

    Why We Love Music by Carl Emil Seashore.

    Psychologists have not explained why we love music. A technical psychologist indulges in generalizations and predictions in a practical and popular vein. He attempts to interpret and evaluate present tendencies of music to stimulate questioning various interests in the field. His aim was to tease out those elements in the musical situation which help to make music function in our lives and be appreciated.
