A Sleep and a Forgetting (The Art of the Novella)
"I wanted them all, even those I'd already read."—Ron Rosenbaum,The New York Observer"Small wonders."—Time Out London"[F]irst-rate…astutely selected and attractively packaged…indisputably great works."—Adam Begley,The New York Observer"I’ve  always been haunted by Bartleby, the proto-slacker. But it’s  the  handsomely minimalist cover of the Melville House edition that gets  me  here, one of many in the small publisher’s fine 'Art of the Novella'   series."—The New Yorker"The Art of the  Novella series is sort of an anti-Kindle. What these  singular,  distinctive titles celebrate is book-ness. They're slim enough  to be  portable but showy enough to be conspicuously consumed—tiny  little  objects that demand to be loved for the commodities they are."—KQED (NPR San Francisco)"Some  like it short, and if you're one of them, Melville House, an   independent publisher based in Brooklyn, has a line of books for you...   elegant-looking paperback editions ...a good read in a small package."—The Wall Street Journal
