And now a novella - our next title

We're very pleased to announce our next title. A Man from the Sky by Danny Wynn. Set in the mountains of Mallorca, it's been called "a thinking person's adventure story."

What's a novella? It's a work of fiction that's longer than a short story but shorter than a novel.

We've always been fans of the novellas by Andre Dubus. But
straight from Wikipedia (with links included), here are some of the other famous ones:

• J. L. Carr's A Month in the Country
• John W. Campbell's Who Goes There?
• Jack London's The Call of the Wild
• John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men
• George Orwell's Animal Farm
• Anthony Burgess's A Clockwork Orange
• Isaac Asimov's Nightfall
• Herman Melville's Billy Budd, Sailor
• Truman Capote's Breakfast at Tiffany's
• Giannina Braschi's Intimate Diary of Solitude in "Empire of Dreams"
• Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea
• Robert Louis Stevenson's The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde
• Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol
• H. G. Wells' The Time Machine
• Philip Roth's Goodbye, Columbus
• Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness
• Thornton Wilder's The Bridge of San Luis Rey
• Jack Kerouac's The Subterraneans
• Thomas Pynchon's The Crying of Lot 49
• Joyce Carol Oates's Black Water
• Stephen King's Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption.
• Joseph Conrad's The Secret Sharer.
• Patrick Leigh Fermor's The Violins of Saint-Jacques
• Clive Barker's The Hellbound Heart
• Ira Levin's The Stepford Wives
• Stephen King's The Mist
• Voltaire's Candide
  
• Saint-Exupery's "The Little Prince"
  
• Colette's Cheri
  

So it looks like Man from the Sky will be joining a long and distinguished list in a literary form that may be just right for today's readers. Long enough to get you through that 3-hour hold over in Atlanta, but short enough so you won't miss you flight.

More details coming soon.
