Book Description
A Fred Will Reader samples the writings of Frederic Will, compiling excerpts of his poetry, travel work, agricultural sociology, short stories and novels, speculative philosophy, and cultural history. Naming the world, Will says, is at least half of world, the half that gives in to us. The other half, the world that reading invents, is supplied by the reader. By reading each other globally, Will argues that we should learn to share ways of reconstructing the often broken totality of the human condition.

Book Description
Even when a person can see something, it doesn't necessarily mean he should look… Celina Wilton is technically blind, but, given the alternative of being dead instead, she's learned how to adapt to a condition she finds far from ideal. Leader of a community of psychics, Stefan Kronos is often asked by the police to help out on special cases where his unique abilities assist with investigations. When he's called upon to consult on a case, Celina falls squarely on his radar. For a long time, he's wanted to get to know Celina better, and the only reason he's gotten as far as he has around her walls is by proceeding in unusual ways. He's had to cautiously watch his every step…and now, in order to protect her, he has to watch hers as well. But, to unravel the threads tangling their lives with a vicious killer, Celina will need to trust Stefan enough to let him inside her barriers. This stalker is like none other Stefan has encountered. Before long, he realizes he's not the only one with eyes into Celina's soul…
