Terry Pratchett`s profoundly irreverent novels are consistent number one bestseller in England, where they have catapulted him into the highest echelons of parody next to Mark Twain, Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Adams, and Carl Hiaasen. In this Discworld installment, Death comes to Mort with an offer he can`t refuse - especially since being, well, dead isn`t Death`s apprentice, he`ll have free board and lodging, use of the company horse, and he won`t need time off for family funerals. The position is everything Mort thought he`d ever wanted, until he discovers that this perfect job can be a killer on his love life.

THE DOOR is Margaret Atwood`s first book of poetry since the 1995 MORNING IN THE BURNED HOUSE. Its lucid yet urgent poems range in tone from lyric to ironic to meditative to prophetic, and in subject from the personal to the political viewed in its broadest sense. They investigate the mysterious writing of poetry itself, as well as the passage of time and our shared sense of mortality. As the New York Times has said, `Atwood`s poems are short, glistening with terse, bright images`. A brave and compassionate book, THE DOOR interrogates the certainties that we build our lives on.
