Book Description
Excerpt from The St. Joseph's Collegian, Vol. 25: A Literary Journal of St. Joseph's College, Collegeville, Indiana, October 1936 There is another outstanding feature that seems to be Closely linked with Galsworthy's Character and dramas. It is his apparent lack Of self-interest. His humility, adorned by his presence and made disarming by a handsome physique, did not always save him from the Charge Of coldness when manifested personally. Whereas nearly all men and women give essential particulars Of their lives, not to mention the human touch of their preferred habits, Mr. Galsworthy rather hides himself beneath a blanket. It is as if he had said to himself, I am my self, but myself isn't a subject I can decently be concerned about or expose an interest in. Let me forget myself in someone in everyone else. Let those who still believe Mr. Galsworthy selfish but read the prefaces to the new and very learned Manaton Edition Of his works. I quote from the announce ment Of the edition: These prefaces are peculiarly interesting, for in them he frankly criticizes his work; in some cases, too, they reflect the response of readers. As he has sensed it. In others he tells Of the thought in his mind While writing, and Of the Changes through which the thought has gone In the process. Again, he speculates on the art Of writing in general, on the forms Of fiction, on emotional expression and effect in drama. In short as he phrases it, 'in writing a preface, one goes into the In dealing with John Galsworthy we must esteem a purely altruistic character. An interesting episode will give a pleasing insight to our author's sheltered life. After the first showing Of his play, Justice he Offered no comment to an unjust criticism made upon the play by a pseudo-critic. Of course a malevolent injustice Of this type must be dealt with and so it was. A letter Of reprimand was sent to the critic by Professor Chubb, demanding an undoing Of such criticism, and a duplicate of the letter was for warded to Mr. Galsworthy. In answer he merely expressed his kind thanks and added that he never replied to criticisms regardless Of their nature.

Book Description
Excerpt from The St. Joseph's Collegian, Vol. 25: A Literary Journal of St. Joseph's College, Collegeville, Indiana, February, 1937 Without going into detail we may say that there seems to be something some what Wordsworthian in the temperament of the young Hecker; something too of Lowell in the experiences of his inner struggle. Undoubtedly there is a like ness between him and Newman as the years go on, though the lives of the two converts are by no means parallel.

Book Description
When Archbishop Henry O’Leary became the second archbishop of Edmonton in 1920, he had a dream to build a western Canada Catholic college that would educate students in the Christian intellectual tradition.This is the story of how a small Roman Catholic institution confronted daunting challenges to become a Christian beacon of enlightenment at the very heart of the secular University of Alberta. Scholarship and community life in residence was always supplemented with teaching from the Christian Ministry Team, to form Christian citizens who would go out into the world to serve the larger community following graduation. In 1963, the Congregation of St. Basil took over the administration of the College from the Christian Brothers de la Salle who had administered the College from its founding in 1926. Since its establishment almost ninety years ago, the College has continued to provide young men and women with post-secondary courses grounded in Roman Catholic thought while pursuing their undergraduate degrees at the University of Alberta. Initially, a residence was built for men, but O’Leary’s dream of also constructing a women’s residence never died and was finally realized in 2015. Faced with slender means, misunderstandings, student mischief and personality clashes, the mission of St. Joseph’s College has guided faculty, administrators, staff and Board members throughout its history and melded them into a close-knit community whose example is the envy of other units at the University of Alberta.

Book Description
"Ant is borderline obsessed with funerals, likening the events to weddings as gatherings he looks forward to. Yet, when a childhood friend passes, Ant’s veneer starts to crumble. Weirdly funny, Whiteout Conditions tracks Ant and his friend Vince as they make their way through Chicogoland’s suburbs, which, in Shah’s telling, are as harrowing as any arctic climate." —Wendy J. Fox, BuzzFeed '15 Small Press Books To Kick Off Your 2020 Reading Season' Ant is back in Chicago for a funeral, and he typically enjoys funerals. Since most of his family has passed away, he finds himself attracted to their endearing qualities: the hyperbolic language, the stoner altar boy, seeing friends in suits for the first time. That is, until the tragic death of Ray — Ant’s childhood friend, Vince's teenage cousin. Ray was the younger third-wheel that Ant and Vince were stuck babysitting while in high school, and his sudden death makes national news. In the depths of a brutal Midwest winter, Ant rides with Vince through the falling snow to Ray’s funeral, an event that has been accruing a sense of consequence. With a poet’s sensibility, Shah navigates the murky responsibilities of adulthood, grief, toxic masculinity, and the tragedy of revenge in this haunting Midwestern noir.
