This edition of A LARGER SENSE OF HARVEY begins with two chapters that were missing from the original published in 1992. The author, Harvey Rocketsch, wrote the chapters at a villa in Paros, Greece several months before his death in a ballooning accident over his native Belarus. For several months, the entire world assumed the early chapters were forever lost with the balloon at the bottom of the Dvina River. But luckily, a British tourist discovers the missing pages. The opening chapters add to the record new revelations about the infamous langoo-adj plot to break down Indo-European language barriers. They provide a new gloss on the research team, their friendships and hatreds, the true tensions which sabotaged their dangerous work. Indeed, were it not for the tourist's discovery, this second edition would never have made it to print.

<p>Fiction. What if an eavesdropper were listening to every detail of your daily life through a crafty bugging device? What if, after snooping around, he lay in wait for you? For just the right moment to visit your home? In FARM FOR MUTES, Dimitri Anastasopoulos pries into the lives of one couple&mdash;an audio restoration expert and his germaphobic wife&mdash;and their sterile but abiding love for one another. They're aging fast, their lives accelerating toward an evolutionary moment they both hope to stall: their eavesdropping visitor allows them a final chance at harmony with the universe before he whisks one of them away. At once comic and caustic, pitiless and tender, FARM FOR MUTES takes a remorseless look at a digital age infatuated with reproduction and presentation, performance and media.<br /> <br /> "FARM FOR MUTES is a refreshing read for readers who like their literary escapades with a touch of weird. If anything, the world will seem a little stranger to anyone having read it. Through his clever and compelling prose, Anastasopoulos imbues a creepy air of mystery that permeates this unconventional read."&mdash;Leia Menlove, The ForeWord Review</p>
