| | Buster's Diaries: The True Story of a Dog and His Man Publication Date: October 2000In 1996, Buster, a half-German Shepherd mutt, was attacked by a goose in a public park.

| | Words Alone: Yeats and His Inheritances Publication Date: July 15, 2011Roy Foster's two-volume biography of Yeats was hailed in the New York Review of Books as "a triumph of scholarship, thought, and empathy such as one would hardly have thought possible in this age of disillusion."

So dramatic and revolutionary was Yeats' impact on Irish literature that the writers and traditions that preceded him are often overlooked, just as his successors are often overshadowed by his achievement. In Words Alone, Roy Foster explores the Irish...
