All of It Singing
New and Selected Poems
By Linda Gregg
Graywolf
Though these poems -- influenced by the poet's years in Greece -- find Gregg alone in a landscape deserted by a man, she isn't despairing but contemplative, wry, amused.

A Mercy
By Toni Morrison
Alfred A. Knopf
Morrison looks at America in the 1680s and 1690s, "a young, wild country where a fog, often slightly mephitic, envelops the world," our reviewer wrote, and orphans and other outcasts struggle to build lives for themselves.

Anathem
By Neal Stephenson
William Morrow
Scientific scholarship is restricted to a select few, cloistered from a society that gorges on consumer distractions. Yet when a crisis threatens, these ascetics must find a solution.
