Reminiscences of a Student's Life
Jane Ellen Harrison
Foreword by Daniel Mendelsohn
“This charming memoir by classicist and educator Harrison (1850-1928), published in 1925 by Leonard and Virginia Woolf, and now reissued with an introduction by Daniel Mendelsohn, offers a graceful portrait of a spirited woman. At times curmudgeonly, at times irreverent, always shrewdly perceptive.” —Kirkus Reviews

Ladies of the Rachmaninoff Eyes
Henry Van Dyke
Foreword by Erik Wood
“The prose descriptions are lyrical, the dialogue is witty and caustic, and the poignant denouement is artfully contrived . . . Ladies of the Rachmaninoff Eyes belongs as much with Terence Rattigan and Noël Coward as with Langston Hughes and James Baldwin.” —Lindsay Johns, Times Literary Supplement
