Dr. Mike Riherd

Title of Book: Felicia's Journey
Author: William Trevor
Publisher: Penguin
Copyright Date: 1994
Total Number of Pages: 213

"I recommend Felicia's Journey because the psychology is keen and subtle. The language throughout the novel is terse and rich in attitude."



Dr. Karen Holgerson

Title of Book: Lost in Translation
Author: Eva Hoffman
Publisher: Penguin
Copyright Date: 1989
Total Number of Pages: 280

" I recommend this book because it is a provocative, beautifully written memoir of the struggle to transition from one language and culture to another without forfeiting the meaning and value of the former. The memoir is also a spiritual and intellectual odyssey that is intensely introspective and inspirational to would be writers."
