Sutherland House Classics is proud to bring back to print Julian Symons' The Tell-Tale Heart, an acclaimed and best-selling biography of Edgar Allan Poe, one of the most influential authors in the English language. A highly-regarded mystery and crime writer in his own right, Symons is in a unique position to understand Poe's work and to sharply, thoroughly reveal the secrets of his life. He paints Poe as his contemporaries saw him: a man whose life was filled with tragedy and who struggled to make a living through his writing, only to emerge as a definitive voice in murder-and-madness fiction and the inventor of the detective story. More relevant than ever in our horror-obsessed times, The Tell-Tale Heart is the second volume in the Sutherland Classics series, which seeks to rediscover and reprint classic works of narrative non-fiction. "As absorbing and compelling as a good detective story." - Washington Post

McSweeney's Quarterly Concern has been printing issues since 1998, and sending them into the world with reckless faith. Now and then, the world writes back. In two decades and change, we've accumulated a heady archive of dispatches, pleas, confessions, treatises, ruminations, rants, raves, and the occasional misdirected customer service query. Collected here are one hundred installments from this sprawling many-to-one correspondence, including but not limited to musings on moths and mummies and macaroons, cats and armadillos and homicidal sea worms, and the arcana of Jerry Lewis's acting career. By turns poignant and absurd, these letters are a sparkling glimpse into the strange and unforgettable lives of McSweeney's readers. Featuring letters by Sarah Vowell, Brandon Hobson, R.O. Kown, Jonathan Lethem, Jenny Odell, Hanif Abdurraqib, Julie Klausner, Thao Nguyen, Ana Marie Cox, Jason Polan, and dozens more.

The book of Nehemiah's opening verse immediately declares that "Nehemiah, son of Hacaliah," contrary to other so-called historical books of the Old Testament, is named as the author of this book. Nehemiah's name means "Yahweh/Jehovah comforts," and his father's name means "Yahweh/Jehovah is hidden." Thus, Nehemiah began his own personal account of his memoires as directed by the Holy Spirit. The first seven chapters of Nehemiah are all written in the first-person pronoun, as well as the material in Nehemiah 12:31-13:31. Therefore, we are given an unusual and unique look into the heart and life of an outstanding servant-leader of God. Nehemiah combined a steady life of prayer, a deep trust in the Lord, along with unusually careful planning, good organization skills and energetic action in the twelve years of his administration over the province of Judah.
