Rachel Carson, Karen Stein
Karen F Stein
Rachel Carson is the twentieth century's most significant environmentalist. Her books about the sea blend science and poetry as they invite readers to share her celebration of the ocean's wonders.

Reading, Learning, Teaching Toni Morrison, Karen Stein
Karen F Stein
Toni Morrison, the 1993 Nobel Prize winning fiction author, is an unabashedly confrontational author.

Her work encompasses a project of total cultural renewal: she re-imagines and reaffirms the experience of African-Americans from the days of slavery up to the present, avoiding stereotypes or oversimplification. She employs African and Western literary traditions and conventions as bases for both structure and critique, re-writing some of the "master narratives" of American culture and history.

Atwood's protagonists are storytellers, witnesses to a world that is often confusing and dangerous; the fictions these characters invent about their lives can become traps, self-fulfilling prophecies, or liberating fictions.
