There’s a good reason why the author sells so many books:
they are fun to read. This story centers on an apartment
building inhabited by a varied cast of characters. It also is a
residence of the One, a creator and destroyer with immense
powers. Over the years, since its construction, the building is
the sight of murder, suicide and madness. This continues until
the present day. There are strange sounds, voices and events
all suggesting and causing unspeakable fates for the tenants of
the building.

Science Fiction
The continuing saga of the monolith, Heywood Floyd, and the
being that was once Dave Bowman is worthy of the original.
Protagonist Floyd boards a Russian spaceship to Jupiter to find
out what happened to the Discovery and its crew. HAL and

with a bang. 2010 stands on its own, but is best appreciated by
fans of 2001.

Science Fiction
A book sometimes criticized as not being up to Clarke's usual
high standard. Start with the story told in 2010. Europa is
changing thanks to Jupiter having been turned into a sun.
There is water and plant life.. Could animal life have
developed? Although it looks like a swamp, we know the
atmosphere is mostly methane-- the environment is nothing
like anything on Earth. Then we see the monolith silently
towering over the swamp, influencing it perhaps as it influenced
Earth a billion years ago. For 50 years humans have avoided
Europa, but tried unsuccessfully to observe from a distance
Humans are getting more and more daring about how close to
Europa they venture. In this book, humans decide to risk
sending down a probe. While they're launching the probe, a
hijacking forces them to land. The stranded researchers focus
on staying alive and cautiously exploring Europa while they are
waiting for a rescue. They come in contact with many natural
phenomena and one supernatural phenomenon.

Science Fiction
This is the final Space Odyssey in the series. 3001 follows the
adventures of Frank Poole, the astronaut who was deliberately
killed by HAL in 2001, A Space Odyssey, by throwing him into
space. . His body is discovered drifting in space after 1000
years and brought back to life in this story. He explores Earth
and learns about the Brain Cap which interfaces humans with
computers; and travels around huge towers – space elevators.
By 3000 Ganymede and Callisto have been colonized. In the
26th century a monolith was discovered in Africa and one on the
moon had been brought to Earth. It’s learned that the Jupiter
monolith is about to receive instructions on how to deal with
humanity and it’s feared this will lead to destruction of
humanity. Poole deals with this with the help of Frank Bowman
and HAL who had been incorporated in the monoliths.

is, moreover, a guide to being. Henry, an unlikely athletic
prodigy, has been recruited to to play shortstop for the Westish
Harpooners. He eventually will set a record for perfect fielding.
The central drama of arises when he has just set the record,
but makes a wildly errant throw that injures a teammate.
Henry is suddenly incapable of throwing accurately,
undermined by paralytic self-consciousness. , The difficulty of
measuring the size and nature of one’s acts and of choosing
whom one will be is at the heart of the struggles that Harbach’s
characters confront. The dream of perfection deferred allows
him to tell a story about our national past-time that manages,
as well, to be about our historical present—in other words, a
story about fallibility.

Non Fiction
This book is written by psychologist B.F. Skinner and first
published in 1971. The theme of the books is that entrenched
belief in free will and the moral autonomy of the individual
(which Skinner referred to as "dignity") hinders the prospect of
using scientific methods to modify behavior for the purpose of
building a happier and better organized society. The book
promotes Skinner's philosophy of science, the technology of
human behavior, his conception of determinism, and what
Skinner calls 'cultural engineering'.

This book written in the 1930s is considered one the great

weathered time to introduce us to a society that is automated
and regulated and designed. Controllers have created the ideal
society. Genetic science has brought the human race to
perfection. From the Alpha-Plus mandarin class to the EpsilonMinus Semi-Morons, designed to perform menial tasks, man is
bred and educated to be blissfully content with his pre-destined
role. But the main character, Bernard Marx, is unhappy. He has
an unnatural desire for solitude, feeling only distaste for the
endless pleasures of compulsory promiscuity, Bernard has an
ill-defined longing to break free. A visit to one of the few
remaining Savage Reservations where the old, imperfect life
still continues, may be the cure for his distress. Unfortunately it
is not. Finally he cannot reconcile the Controller’s explanations
with his own developing beliefs.

Catch-22 by Joseph Heller

Modern Fiction
The term catch-22 originated in this book. John Yossarian is a
bombardier in WWII who wants to avoid any more combat
duty. This will happen only if the Air Force doctor finds him unfit
to fly. Yossarian thinks anyone is crazy to fly dangerous
missions, but he must ask for a test. The asking is considered
proof that he is sane. Hence it is impossible for him to be
declared “unfit.” Catch-22 therefore, ensures that no pilot can
ever be grounded for being insane—even if he were. The book
is filled with memorable characters and situations. Funny-sad at
the same time.

Cat’s Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut

Science Fiction
The narrator, John, becomes involved with the children of Felix
Hoenikker, a fictional Nobel laureate physicist. He learns of a
substance called ice-nine, created by Hoenikker and now
possessed by his children. When a crystal of ice-nine contacts
liquid water, it turns liquid water into ice. John and the
Hoenikker children eventually end up on the fictional Caribbean
island of San Lorenzo, one of the poorest countries on Earth,
ruled by the "Papa" Monzano, who threatens all opposition with
impalement on a giant hook. John learns about an influential
religious movement in San Lorenzo, called Bokononism, a
strange, postmodern faith that combines irreverent, nihilistic,
and cynical observations about life and God's will with odd, but
peaceful rituals. Though everyone on the island seems to know
much about Bokononism and its founder, Bokonon, the present
government calls itself Christian and those caught practicing
Bokononism are punished with death by the giant hook. John
learns that Bokonon himself was at one point a de facto ruler of
the island, along with a US Marine deserter. The two men
created Bokononism as part of a utopian project to control the
population.
When John arrives, the dictator is badly ailing, and abruptly
hands the presidency to John, who begrudgingly accepts. At his
inauguration, an airplane crashes, throwing ice-nine into the
ocean and all the water in the world's seas, rivers, and
groundwater turns into ice-nine, killing almost all life in a few
days. John escapes and lives in a cave for several months,
during which time he writes a memoir revealed to be the novel
itself. The book ends by his meeting a Bokonon.

Science Fiction
This book is a part of Heinlein's multiverse series. The writer is
approached by a man who urges him that "Tolliver must
die"–and is then himself shot. The writer is joined by a beautiful
and sophisticated lady, Gwen Novak, who helps him flee to
Luna. Gwen obsesses over the now ancient Lunar Revolt and
Mike (Mycroft), the self-aware computer responsible for the
uprising's victory. Still pursued by unknown assassins,
Campbell and Novak are rescued by an organization (later
revealed to be called the Time Corps) under the leadership of
Lazarus Long. The Time Corps attempts to recruit Campbell to
retrieve the decommissioned supercomputer, Mike. Engaged in
frequent time-travel, the Time Corps has been responsible for
changing various events in the past, creating an alternate
universe with every time-line they disrupt. Mike's assistance is
needed in order to accurately predict the conditions and
following events in each of the new universes created.
Campbell's frequent would-be assassins are revealed to be
members of contemporary agencies also engaged in time
manipulation who, for unknown reasons, do not want to see
Mike rescued by the Time Corps. The story ends with Campbell
talking into a recorder and reflecting on the mission and his
relationship with Gwen.

This is the fifth and possibly final volume in the Ender series.
However, Ender plays only a limited role. The main story is of
the attempt to avert the destruction of a planet, Lusitania,
possibly infected with a virus by an unknown species. In this
story, Peter and Young Valentine, Ender's "children of the
mind," are copies of his brother and sister whom he
accidentally created on his trip Outside the universe in
Xenocide. They are “copies”, but real people. Also central is
Jane, the Artificial Intelligence whose unique ability to use the
Outside to transcend the light-speed barrier is key to all
attempts to save Ender's adopted world. Peter, Val, Jane and
their companions criss-cross the galaxy to find new planets for
Lusitania's refugees while trying to influence the politicians and
philosophers who have the power to stop the impending
planetary destruction. There is some aspect of space opera in
the story, but there are mystical and quasi-religious themes,
and problems of intra-family conflicts.

Mystery
In this story, Grisham makes clear his oppsition to the death
penalty.
Donte Drumm was an 18-year-old football star charged with
the murder of a high school cheerleader. When taken in for
questioning he waives his Miranda rights. He is subsequently
charged, tried, convicted and sentenced to death. The real
killer, Travis Boyette is a serial rapist. He laughs when the
police and prosecutors congratulate themselves on getting the
killer. He is content to allow an innocent person to go to prison,
to serve hard time, even to be executed. He buried her body so
that it would never be found, then watched in amazement as
police and prosecutors arrested and convicted Drumm, and
marched him off to death row. Now nine years have passed.
Travis has just been paroled in Kansas for a different crime;
Donté is four days away from his execution. Travis suffers from
an inoperable brain tumor. For the first time in his miserable
life, he decides to do what’s right and confess. But there is no
happy ending to this story although justice eventually prevails.

by Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta. Now she is the
examiner in a case involving thirteen year old Eddie Heath shot
in the head with potential sexual components involved.
Scarpetta's autopsy of Heath uncovers the fingerprint of

Grueman turns up the heat claiming Scarpetta is incompetent,
files are stolen from her office. More murders that apparently
were committed by a dead Waddell lead Grueman orchestrating

punishment has occurred, an innocent person executed. There
is also a grand jury investigation into possible criminal activities
of the medical examiner. Scarpetta struggles to understand

happened to her once thriving career.

The Cunning Man by Robertson Davies

Davies introduces us to Jonathan Hullah, a doctor who writes in
the first person. A “cunning man” is a wise man, a village
know-it-all. Dr. Hullah is such a “cunning man.” He is an expert
diagnostician. At the end of story Hullah reviews his “losses”:
his godson Gil (who might have been his son); Nuala, the love
of his life; his friend Charlie Iredale; the splendor of St. Aidan’s,
now modernized; and journalist Esme Barron, who revealed the
“great news” of her engagement before Hullah had the chance
to declare his love for her. Hullah has the wisdom, however, to
realize that his life has not been all loss and downward journey.
To have known and loved these people; to have presided over
his own clinic and to see patients improve under his care; to
have watched the city of Toronto expand and to know that he
was witnessing a great movement of history—all these were
positive experiences for one who thought of himself chiefly as
an intelligent observer of his times.

This is another thriller by Brown. It is an exhaustively
researched page-turner about secret religious societies, ancient
coverups and savage vengeance. The action kicks off in
modern-day Paris with the murder of the Louvre's chief curator,
whose body is found laid out in symbolic repose at the foot of
the Mona Lisa. Seizing control of the case are Sophie Neveu, a
lovely French police cryptologist, and Harvard symbol expert
Robert Langdon, reprising his role from Brown's last book. The
two find several puzzling codes at the murder scene, all of
which form a treasure map to the fabled Holy Grail. As their
search moves from France to England, Neveu and Langdon are
confounded by two mysterious groups-the legendary Priory of
Sion, a nearly 1,000-year-old secret society whose members
have included Botticelli and Isaac Newton, and the conservative
Catholic organization Opus Dei. Both have their own reasons for
wanting to ensure that the Grail isn't found. Brown sometimes
ladles out too much religious history at the expense of pacing,
and Langdon is a hero in desperate need of more chutzpah.
Still, Brown has assembled a whopper of a plot that will please
both conspiracy buffs and thriller addicts.

A Deepness in the Sky – Vernor Vinge
$6.50
Buy Now
Science Fiction
This is space opera by a master. Set twenty thousand years
earlier than A Fire On the Deep, Vernor Vinge's second book in
the Zones of Thought universe shares little and requires
nothing of its companion volume. It's action alternates between
the inhabitants of an alien world and human observers
concealed in orbit above. The Spiders have developed prespace flight technology and struggle with the 250-year freezeand-thaw cycle of their planet's On/Off variable star. The
orbiting humans consist of two factions. The Qeng Ho have
goals of trade and communication. The Emergents have the
more direct agenda of conquest and domination. Like Vinge's
other fiction, this book is host to a number of "big ideas" that
take the stage along with the actions and inactions of the
characters. They include an alien species- the Spiders, a
variable star that regularly turns on and off and a mindrot virus
that it both a disease and an altered state that make workers
more diligent and productive. On it's own, without reference to
A Fire on the Deep, it is a classic.

The Deptford Trilogy by Robertson Davies
$5.99
Buy Now
Modern Fiction
The trilogy consists of Fifth Business, The Manticore, and
World of Wonders.. The series revolves around a simple
act—a young boy throws a snowball at another, but it misses its
intended target—and the effect this act has on a number of
characters. The main characters of the series have come by
twisting paths from their simple (fictional) village of Deptford in
Canada —and each carries a secret that crosses the lives of the
others and drives the plot forward. The greatest secret is one
that the reader is not even aware of until the close of the last
book, but which finally answers questions about the
relationships among several major characters. Fifth Business is
narrated by Dunstan Ramsay, a schoolteacher who grows up in
the fictional Deptford. The novel takes the form of a letter he
writes to the headmaster of the school from which he has just
retired, wherein he recalls how, as a boy, he ducked the fateful
snowball intended for him and it hit a pregnant woman. She
gives birth prematurely as a result. Intertwined with his story is
the life of Percy Boyd 'Boy' Staunton, Ramsay's boyhood friend
who threw the snowball, and who later became a wealthy
businessman. The Manticore Staunton's only son, David. David
Staunton undergoes psychoanalysis in Switzerland. The novel is
a detailed record of his therapy and his coming to understand
his own life. It sheds new light on many of the characters
introduced in the Fifth Business. World of Wonders is the
story of Paul Dempster, the son of the woman hit by the
snowball, who has grown up to be a famous magician.

This book won both a Nebula and Hugo Award. The story
explores many ideas and themes, including anarchism and
revolutionary societies, capitalism, individualism and
collectivism. It also includes creation of the ansible, the
instantaneous communications device that is used in other
stories. It addresses potential shortcomings of an anarchist
society. It is told from the point of view of a theoretical
physicist, with the creative ability and intellect of an Einstein,
who has grown to adulthood on a planet with a well-established
anarchist culture. A committed anarchist, he seeks to defend
and expand the values of personal freedom and responsibility.
The anarchist society in which he lives espouses such values,
but falls far short of living up to them. The capitalist alternative,
embodied in a society located on a different planet, is controlled
by an elite driven by greed and power. The dilemma posed by
the novel is whether one extraordinary and courageous man
with the help of like-minded others can overcome the
shortcomings of both societies and make a lasting contribution
that enhances peace and freedom throughout the cosmos.

Doc by Mary Doria Russell
$3.75
Buy Now
Historical Fiction
Ernest Hemingway said about “A Moveable Feast” “Much of this
book is fiction, but there is always a chance that such a work of
fiction may throw some light on what has been written as fact.”
This is the mostly true story of the life and times of John Henry
(Doc) Holliday, known in real life for his association with the
Earp brothers-- Wyatt, Morgan, Virgil and James. The author
credits William Barkley "Bat" Masterson with exaggerating and
making up dime store novels for personal gain that resulted in
Holliday's reputation as a gunslinger and cold blooded killer.
Doc was born in 1851 in Griffin Georgia in a wealthy family and
graduated from Dental Surgery School in Atlanta . In order to
treat his tuberculosis he moved to Dallas, Texas, Dodge City,
Kansas and later Tombstone, Arizona. The story is primarily
about Doc Holliday's long impending struggle with living his
adult life as his debilitating disease slowly destroyed his lungs
and finally kill him in 1887. The story describes a man of many
facets--a dentist, a gambler, an accomplished piano player, a
horseman, an alcoholic, extremely educated, quick tempered, a
loyal friend, a friend of the oppressed, and an amazing human
being. John's long on-again off-again relationship with former
wealthy educated aristocrat, turned alcoholic prostitute and
Doc's gambling promoter known as Kate Harony is an integral
part of this fascinating and moving tale.

Wiggin is trained to command Earth forces in battle with aliens.
He believes he is only fighting a simulated enemy with

The End of Eternity by Isaac Asimov
$4.50
Buy Now
Science Fiction
Time travel, social engineering, a mystery – some call this one
of Asimov’s best novels. The Eternity of the title is an
organization and a place which exists outside time. It is staffed
by male humans called Eternals who are recruited from
different eras of human history commencing with the twentyseventh century. The Eternals are capable of traveling
“upwhen” and “downwhen” within Eternity and entering the
conventional temporal world at almost any point of their choice.
Collectively they form a corps of guardians who carry out
carefully calculated and planned strategic minimum actions,
called Reality Changes, within the temporal world in order to
minimize human suffering. But Eternity itself suffers from
serious maladjustments. The Eternals are also troubled that
beyond a certain point in the future they are blocked by
unknown means from entering Time. These are the "Hidden
Centuries". Beyond the Hidden Centuries they can emerge, but
find the earth deserted of human life. The main character of the
story travels back to 1932 to inspire investigation into atomic
energy. He also learns from a character from the far future that
Eternity is ultimately a drag on creativity and this affects the
lack of space travel in the future and eventually makes the
Earth barren of life.

The story takes place in some future time in a hedonistic antiintellectual America that has completely abandoned self-control.
It is told by Guy Montag. This America is filled with lawlessness
in the streets and anyone caught reading or possessing illegal
books (almost all are illegal) is, at the minimum, confined to a
mental hospital while the books are burned. Montag is a
fireman (whose job is to burn books.) Still, for reasons personal
and philosophical he begins to question the values of his society
and his role in destroying books and the buildings in which they
are found. He personally steals and hides a book and then
more. Eventually, Montag joins a revolutionist, but to maintain
his cover he burns his own house. Thereafter he learns of
others who want to preserve books and joins them, fleeing the
city. Shortly thereafter a war starts and the city, and others are
bombed and destroyed. The novel ends with the suggestion
that the old society has collapsed and a new one must be built
from the ashes. It is implied the keepers of books will be
important. Fahrenheit 451 is supposedly the temperature at
which paper burns.

The war is between earthlings and the "Taurans" .Because of
the effects of relativity, the defenders usually have an
advantage because their technology is more advanced than that
of the aggressor. With no communication between the two
races, no chance of winning, but the ever present chance of
defeat, an eternal war is created. Halderman also captures the
disorientation experienced by GIs who came back from horrific

knowing that because of the war the relationship may end

Young Persons
This book dates from the 1970s when it was pretty hard for
teens to get any information whatsoever about sex and sexual
relationships. – The story is about two nice, normal older
teenagers who meet at a party, date, fall in love and eventually
find themselves wanting to have a sexual relationship with each
other. The sex scenes are described indetail but in an
informational, not a dramatic, scary or otherwise "weird" way.
At the time they truly think they will betogether forever, but
later events cast doubt on their promise. The focus of this book
is on presenting a sexualrelationship that wasn't accompanied
by a horrible tragedy or "punishment" for the people involved,
so that teens could just focus on what a "normal" relationship
was like, sexually and emotionally. The criticism of the book: it
fails to portray that not every sexual relationship goes along as
smoothly, and should have dealt a little more realistically with
the emotional impact that can happen when one person
changes their mind about "forever".

It’s the 22nd century, and Clarke describes the construction of
a space elevator - a giant structure connecting the Earth on the
equator with a satellite in geostationary orbit. It is used to lift
payloads to orbit without using rockets orshuttles. The project
is made possible by using a hyperfilament which is able to
sustain it’s own tremendous weight and make possible
elevators that travel on the cable. Subplots include colonization
of the solar system and extraterrestrial contact. There are
historical references to ancient East Asian cultures.

Freedom by Jonathan Franzen

Modern Fiction
This book follows several members of an American family, the
Berglunds, Walter and Patty, as well as their close friends and
lovers, as complex and troubled relationships unfold over many
years. The book follows them through the last decades of the
twentieth century and concludes near the beginning of the
Obama administration. The Berglunds are a quintessential
liberal middle-class family, and they are among the first
families to move back into urban St. Paul, Minnesota from the
suburbs. The family includes a daughter and a son, Joey, who
early on displays an independent streak and an interest in
making money. Joey becomes sexually involved with a
neighborhood teen, Connie, and begins to rebel against his
mother, going so far as to move in with Connie and her mother.
After several unhappy years the family relocates to
Washington, D.C. abandoning the neighborhood and house they
worked so hard to improve. Walter takes a job with an
unorthodox environmental project, tied to big coal. The second
portion of the book takes the form of an autobiography of Patty
Berglund, composed at the suggestion of her therapist. It tells
of her increasing alienation from her artistically inclined parents
and sisters and settling for marriage with Walter. The novel
then jumps ahead to New York City in 2004 and shifts to the
story of Walter and Patty's friend Richard, who has finally
succeeded in becoming a minor indie rock star in his middle
age. Richard is uncomfortable with commercial success and has
thrown away his new found money and gone back to building
roof decks for wealthy people. Walter calls him out of the blue
to enlist his help as celebrity spokesman for an environmental
campaign. In parallel, Joey attempts to finance his college life
in Virginia by taking on a dubious subcontract to provide spare
parts for outdated supply trucks during the Iraq war. Now,
Richard's re-appearance destroys Walter and Patty's weakening
marriage. Walter kicks Patty out of the house and she moves to
Jersey City to be with Richard, but the relationship only lasts six
months. Walter rebels against his employer who is despoiling a
mountaintop property. Eventually, Patty matures and hunts
down Walter. He agrees to take her back as the book ends in
2008.

Freefall by Joseph Stiglitz

Non Fiction
Stiglitz is a Nobel Prize recipient, former Chairman of the
Council of Economic Advisors, and a professor at Columbia. He
is a Keynesian and a scholarly expert on market failure. This
book examines the recession of 2007–09 and names names
about the people and institutions that caused it, banks above
all. He considers who benefited and who failed to take action.
While he is very critical of right-leaning economists and the
people who quoted them, he doesn’t spare the Obama
administration where he believes they went wrong in dealing
with the crisis. The book was originally published in 2010, but
there is an update included from later in the year. The accuracy
of his predictions can now be seen more than a year after
publication. This book is essential to understand the reasons
behind the banking collapse and the misguided faith in the
power of self regulation in a free market. There are extensive
endnotes to complement the text.

This is the third and last books about Lisbeth Salander. Most
readers have read the first two so no lengthy description of her
talent and personality is needed. She is the brilliant computer
hacker and all- around athlete who was shot in the final pages
of The Girl who Played With Fire. She is still the prime
suspect in three murders in Stockholm. While she convalesces
under armed guard, journalist Mikael Blomkvist works to
unravel the decades-old coverup surrounding the man who shot
Salander: her father, Alexander Zalachenko, a Soviet
intelligence defector and longtime secret asset to Säpo,
Sweden's security police. Estranged throughout Fire, Blomkvist
and Salander communicate primarily online, but their lack of
physical interaction in no way diminishes the intensity of their
unconventional relationship. Surprise – everything ends well,
but how we get there is the work of a master.

Trilogy. A publisher, Mikael Blomkvist, and the police are
conducting parallel investigations into three murders -- and

heroine of the first volume. Blomkvist hasn't seen Salander in
nearly two years, except for one night when he happened to
witness a huge man attempting to kidnap her, He doesn't
believe Salander killed these victims. He has to contact her,
find out how she's become embroiled in this, and help her.
Salander, has her own ideas about who she'll see and when.
This book highlights another subject of interest to Larsson: the
underbelly of the sex trade. Blomkvist's magazine, plans an
issue devoted to the subject. and there follows much in-house
discussion of the lurid material and how it should be presented
to the public. But the three murders turn the magazine and its
people on their heads. Meanwhile, Salander travels and
changes her appearance. Among her pursuits: attempting to
write a proof of Fermat's Last Theorem, furnishing her new
abode, and keeping tabs on Bjurman (whom she memorably
tattooed in DRAGON). Then, she disappears for quite a spell as
the murder investigation gets cranking, and finally, she regains
the spotlight as the book rushes headlong into a heart-stopping
conclusion.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is an international best
seller set in Sweden. The story moves with lightening speed.
There are two key plots happening simultaneously. In one, a
Swedish financial investigative journalist publishes a libelous
attack about a powerful industrialist and is sentenced to jail,
fined a ruinous sum, and has his career torn to shreds. Another
industrialist, Vanger, hires the journalist to investigate the 36
year old disappearance of his then 14 year old grand niece.
Though there has been no trace of her in all these years , every
year on his birthday, he receives a mysterious gift mimicking a
gift his missing grandniece used to give him. The book is titled
after yet another character, Lisabeth Salander, a societal
outcast and State ward, uncivilized without any desire to obey
societal norms, and replete with piercings, tattoos, and a
Goth/biker appearance. She is a researcher with a corporate
security firm and ends up working with the journalist. She is a
survivor of abuse in all forms with low self esteem, but is a
genius with Asberger's Syndrome, who sees patterns in things
ordinary mortals miss and uses incredible computer hacking
skills to accomplish her goals. She is fascinating: ruthless and
tough to a fault, yet internally vulnerable, struggling to
comprehend her own feelings.

The painting Girl with a Pearl Earring is one of Dutch painter
Johannes Vermeer’s masterworks and as the name implies,
uses a pearl as a focal point. The book of the same name
centers on Vermeer's prosperous Delft household during the
1660s. When Griet, the novel's quietly perceptive heroine, is
hired as a servant, turmoil follows. First, the 16-year-old
narrator becomes increasingly intimate with her master. Then
Vermeer employs her as his assistant, and ultimately has her
sit for him as a model. The story describes the complex
domestic tensions of the household, ruled over by the painter's
jealous, eternally pregnant wife and his taciturn mother-in -law.

If one wants a no-holds-barred criticism of religion, this is the
book. Hitchens contends that organized religion is "violent,
irrational, intolerant, allied to racism, tribalism, and bigotry, full
of ignorance and hostile to free thought, contemptuous of
women and coercive toward children" and accordingly it "ought
to have a great deal on its conscience." He supports his position
with a mixture of personal stories, documented historical
anecdotes and critical analysis of religious texts. His
commentary focuses mainly on the Abrahamic religions,
although it also touches on other religions, such as Hinduism
and Buddhism.

An American classic that earned the author a Pulitzer Prixe in
1939. It is set Great Depression of the 1930s. The story is
about what happened during this period, focusing on the Joads,
a poor family of sharecroppers driven from their Oklahoma
home by drought economic hardship, and changes in financial
and agricultural industries. Due to their nearly hopeless
situation, the Joads set out for California. Along with thousands
of other " Okies" ", they sought jobs, land, dignity and a future.
When preparing to write the novel, Steinbeck wrote: "I want to
put a tag of shame on the greedy bastards who are responsible
for this [the Great Depression and its effects]." The book won
Steinbeck a large following among the working class, perhaps
due to the book's sympathy to the worker's movement and its
accessible prose style. It is frequently read in American high
school and college literature classes.

This is the fifth book in the Narnia series. It takes place during

best in the reading order immediately following The Lion, the

to about 11, but the story has enough depth to make it a
satisfying, if short, read for even adult readers. This book is
unique in the series, in that the viewpoint characters do not

This is a recognized American classic often read in high schools
and colleges. It is set in the mid-19th century. The house of the
title is a gloomy New England mansion, haunted by fraudulent
dealings, accusations of witchcraft and sudden death. The
current resident, the dignified but desperately poor Hepzibah
Pyncheon, opens a shop in a side room to support her brother
Clifford, who is about to leave prison after serving thirty years
for murder. She refuses all assistance from her unpleasant
wealthy cousin Judge Pyncheon. A distant relative, the lively
and pretty young Phoebe, turns up and quickly becomes
invaluable, charming customers and rousing Clifford from
depression. A romance grows between Phoebe and the
mysterious lodger Holgrave, who is writing a history of the
Pyncheon family.
Judge Pyncheon arrives at the house one day, and threatens to
have Clifford committed to an insane asylum if Clifford does not
assist the Judge in giving him the information the Judge
believes Clifford has regarding the mystical "eastern lands" of
Maine that the family has long rumored to own but to have lost
the deeds to. However, before Clifford can be brought before
him the Judge mysteriously dies in the same chair as the
historical Pyncheon who stole the land. Hepzibah and Clifford
escape on a train after the Judge dies. The townsfolk murmur
about their sudden disappearance, and, upon Phoebe's return,
the Judge's body is discovered. However, Hepzibah and Clifford
return shortly, to Phoebe's relief. Events from past and present
throw light on the circumstances which sent Clifford to prison,
proving his innocence. The romance ends with the characters
leaving the old house to start a new life, free of the burdens of
the past.

Mystery
This is the story of Jacob Hunt, a teenage boy with Asperger’s
Syndrome. He’s hopeless at reading social cues or expressing
himself well to others, and like many kids with AS, Jacob has a
special focus on one subject – in his case, forensic analysis.
He’s always showing up at crime scenes, thanks to the police
scanner he keeps in his room, and telling the cops what they
need to do…and he’s usually right. His abilities become
recognized in time. One day his tutor is found dead, and the
police come to question him. All of the hallmark behaviors of
Asperger’s – not looking someone in the eye, stimulatory tics
and twitches, inappropriate affect – can look a heck of a lot like
guilt to law enforcement personnel. That’s what happens and
Jacob finds himself accused of murder. The book looks at what
it means to be different in our society, how autism affects a
family, and how our legal system works well for people who
communicate a certain way – but lousy for those who don’t. It
all ends well.

This is the first of the three books about Katniss Everdeen a

reconstructed after the destruction of North America. Every
year one boy and one girl between the ages of 12 and 18 from
each part are selected at random and forced to participate in
the Hunger Games, a televised event in which the participants
must fight to the death in a dangerous outdoor arena until only
one remains. Also participating from her district is Peeta a boy
she knows. He reveals his long-time unrequited love for
Katniss; she believes this to be a ploy to gain audience support.
As the games continue, the death toll increases, but they are
able to evade death. A rule change is announced midway
through the games: two participants from the same district can
win the Hunger Games as a pair. When the couple are finally
the last two left alive, the authorities try to force them into a
dramatic finale where one must kill the other to win. When they
threaten suicide they are both declared winners. Afterwards,
Peeta is heartbroken to learn that their relationship was at least
partially a calculated ploy to garner sympathy from the
audience, although Katniss remains unsure of her own feelings.

I-Robot by Isaac Asimov
$2.25

Science Fiction
Though first published in 1950, this collection of nine short
stories frame the science fiction view of robots and robotics.
The book is most famous for is Three Laws of Robotics. The
Laws are a central theme in each of the stories. These laws are
the central theme to each individual story, and connect them.
Another connection is the experiences of the mythical Dr. Susan
Calvin who is a leader in the field. Each story illuminates a
problem encountered when a robot interprets the three Laws
and something goes awry. One robot questions the reason for
his existence. Another feels a necessity to lie. Yet another has
an ego problem. The later stories introduce the reader to the
Machines, powerful computing robots without the typical
humanoid personalities of the working robots, that control the
economic and industrial processes of the world.

I Will Fear No Evil by Robert A. Heinlein

Science Fiction
The story takes place about 2015. Very old billionaire Johan
Smith is dying, and wants to have his brain transplanted into a
new body. Coincidentally, his beautiful young female secretary,
Eunice Branca, is murdered, so her body is used, since Smith
never thought to place any restriction on the sex of the donor.
He is rechristened Joan Eunice Smith. Eunice's personality
continues to co-inhabit the body. (Whether Eunice's personality
is real or a figment of Johann's imagination is addressed but
never fully resolved in the novel.) Joan and Eunice agree never
to reveal her continued existence, fearing that they would be
judged insane and locked up. For the most part, the story
details the adventures of Smith-Branca as Smith learns how to
live and react as a woman. A little suspension of disbelief is
required, but the different outlooks of men and women make
for interesting reading. Heinlein doesn’t hesitate to interject his
libertarian philosophy.

There is no doubt that this is a work of fiction. It purports to be
an eyewitness account of the London plague of 1665, a year
when the author was 5 years old. Still, it is a good account of
what probably happened at the time. There is grisly detail and
examples of compassion. There is the description of the
symptoms of the plague and the efforts to contain it. There are
varying estimates, but between 65,000 and 100,000 people in
London died. The narrator trusts in God to get him through the
hardships and the danger. The story recounts the efforts to deal
with a catastrophe and the eventual recovery of a stronger and
wiser society.

On one level, The Jungle exposed inhumane conditions in the
stockyards. Inhumane for the workers, downright poisonous for
consumers of the meat because of the utter disregard for
hygiene. On another level this is a socialist tract against the
inhumane treatment of workers who are considered
interchangeable and disposable cogs in a capitalist machine.
The book led to new laws on both worker's rights and the
meatpacking industry. On still a third level, the book describes
the immigrant experience at the beginning of the 20th century.

It's the 1930s in London. Gordon Comstock is a bright,

himselfas a poet, but his chief occupation is avoiding success
which he believes is selling out. In fact, he wants to think he
has taken "not a good job": as part of his war on money. There
are good descriptions of the difficult choices needed when
money is scarce. There are several divergent ways of looking at
the book: it's realistic, sarcastic, simplistic, preachy, and
political. It's part of Orwell's genius that it's all of these and

Modern Fiction
The story takes place during during the 1930s in a fictional
Alabama town. The main characters are six-year-old Scout
Finch, who lives with her older brother Jem and their widowed
father Atticus, a middle-aged lawyer. Jem and Scout befriend a
boy named Dill. All three are terrified of, and fascinated by,
their neighbor, a recluse named "Boo" Radley. The adults in the
town are hesitant to talk about Boo and few have seen him.
The children fantasize about his appearance and why he
remains hidden. Eventually Dill, Scout and Jem find that
someone is leaving them small gifts in a tree outside the Radley
place and several times, the mysterious Boo makes gestures of
affection to the children. Atticus is appointed by the court to
defend Tom Robinson, a black man who has been accused of
raping a young white woman, Mayella Ewell. Other children
taunt Jem and Scout for Atticus' actions, calling him a "nigger­
lover". After a trial in which it is clear the accuser and her
father Bob Ewell are lying, Robinson is convicted. Jem's faith in
justice is badly shaken, as is Atticus', when a hopeless Tom is
shot and killed while trying to escape from prison. Later,
humiliated by the trial, Bob Ewell vows revenge and finally, he
attacks the defenseless Jem and Scout as they walk home on a
dark night. Jem's arm is broken in the struggle, but amid the
confusion, someone comes to the children's rescue. The
mysterious man carries Jem home, where Scout realizes that
he is Boo Radley. The sheriff convinces Atticus that Ewell simply
fell on his own knife. Afterwards, Scout imagines life from Boo's
perspective and regrets that they never repaid him for the gifts
he had given them.

Betrayal and redemption set in war-torn Afghanistan and the
United States. Amir and Hassan are childhood friends in the
alleys and orchards of Kabul before the invasion of the Soviet
army and Afghanistan's decent into fanaticism. Both
motherless, they grow up as close as brothers, but their fates,
they know, are to be different. Amir's father is a wealthy
merchant; Hassan's father is his manservant. Amir belongs to
the ruling caste of Pashtuns, Hassan to the despised Hazaras.
This fragile idyll is broken by the mounting ethnic, religious,
and political tensions that begin to tear Afghanistan apart. An
unspeakable assault on Hassan by a gang of local boys tears
the friends apart; Amir has witnessed his friend's torment, but
is too afraid to intercede. Plunged into self-loathing, Amir
conspires to have Hassan and his father turned out of the
household.
When the Soviets invade Afghanistan, Amir and his father flee
to San Francisco, leaving Hassan and his father to a pitiless
fate. Only years later will Amir have an opportunity to redeem
himself by returning to Afghanistan to begin to repay the debt
long owed to the man who should have been his brother. After
establishing himself in America, Amir learns that the Taliban
have murdered Hassan and his wife, raising questions about the
fate of his son, Sohrab. Spurred on by childhood guilt, Amir
makes the difficult journey to Kabul, only to learn the boy has
been enslaved by a former childhood bully who has become a
prominent Taliban official. The price Amir must pay to recover
the boy is just one of several brilliant, startling plot twists that
make this book memorable.

Modern Fiction
An examination of antebellum Virginia and slave owning with a
twist, the master is black as are his slaves. Henry Townsend, a
former slave-now master of 33 slaves of his own and more than
50 acres of land in Manchester County, Va.-worried about the
fate of his holdings upon his death. As a slave in his youth,
Henry makes himself indispensable to his master, William
Robbins. Even after Henry's parents purchase the family's
freedom, Henry retains his allegiance to Robbins, who
patronizes him when he sets up shop as a shoemaker and helps
him buy his first slaves and his own plantation. The book
describes the legal and social intricacies of slaveholding.
Though he is a cruel master to his slaves, Robbins is
desperately in love with a black woman and feels as much
fondness for Henry as for his own children; Henry, meanwhile,
reads Milton, but beats his slaves as readily as Robbins does.
Henry's wife, Caldonia, is not as disciplined as her husband, and
when he dies, his worst fears are realized: the plantation falls
into chaos. The story explains how it is that one can own
another person and how it is to be owned.

The Last Days of Pompeii - Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton

Historical Fiction
This is a novel written in 1834. Once a very widely read book,
now relatively neglected, it culminates in the cataclysmic
destruction of the city of Pompeii by the eruption of Mount
Vesuvius inn 79 AD. The novel uses its characters to contrast
the decadent culture of 1st-century Rome with both older
cultures and coming trends. The protagonist, Glaucus,
represents the Greeks who have been subordinated by Rome,
and his nemesis Arbaces the still older culture of Egypt.
Olinthus is the chief representative of the nascent Christian
religion, which is presented favorably but not uncritically. The
Witch of Vesuvius, though she has no supernatural powers,
shows the author's interest in the occult - a theme which would
emerge in his later writing.

Criminal defense attorney Mickey Haller practices in Los

in this story he gets a “dream case” – a wealthy client. The
client is accused of assault and attempted murder. At first, he
appears to be innocent and set up by the female "victim." But
his lies change Haller’s original case theory and make him
reconsider the situation of a former client serving time in San
Quentin after pleading guilty to a similar crime. In the end
Haller outmaneuvers his client (revealed to be a rapist and
murderer) and frees the innocent former client. Much of the
action takes place in a courtroom. The author has won
numerous awards and is a former president of the Mystery
Writers of America.

This is a classic story about a group of English schoolboys,
teenagers or younger, who are plane-wrecked on a deserted
island. At first, the stranded boys cooperate, attempting to
gather food, make shelters, and maintain signal fires. In charge
are Ralph and Piggy. Ralph tries to impose order and delegate
responsibility but there are many in their number who would
rather swim, play, or hunt. Soon Ralph's rules are being
ignored or challenged outright. His fiercest antagonist is Jack,
the redheaded leader of the hunters.. The situation deteriorates
as the trappings of civilization continue to fall away, until Ralph
discovers that instead of being hunters, he and Piggy have
become the hunted: This novel explores the line between
reason and instinct. At an allegorical level, the central theme is
the conflicting impulses toward civilization live by rules,
peacefully and in harmony—and towards the will to power.
Different subjects include the tension between groupthink and
individuality, between rational and emotional reactions, and
between morality and immorality. How these play out, and how
different people feel the influences of these, forms a major
subtext of the book.

Love in the Time of Cholera - Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Classic Fiction
This story revolves around Fermina Daza. She marries Juvenal
Urbino at the age of 21, the "deadline" she had set for herself.
She does this because he seemed to be able to offer security
and love. Urbino is a doctor devoted to science, modernity, and
"order and progress." Urbino's function is to provide the
counterpoint to Florentino Ariza's archaic, baldly romantic love.
Urbino proves in the end not to have been an entirely faithful
husband, confessing one affair to Fermina some years into their
marriage. Though the novel seems to suggest that Urbino's love
for Fermina was never as spiritually chaste as Florentino Ariza's
was, it also complicates Florentino's devotion by cataloging his
many trysts and apparently a few, possibly genuine, loves. By
the end of the book, Fermina comes to recognize a wisdom and
maturity in Ariza and their love is allowed to blossom in their
old age.

The Mammoth Hunters by Jean M. Auel
$5.25
Buy Now
Historical Fiction
This book is the sequel to The Valley of Horses and third in
the Earth's Children series. It picks up where The Valley of
Horses ends; Ayla and Jondalar, meet a group known as the
Mamutoi, or Mammoth Hunters, with whom they live for a
period of time. Wisest of their nation is Old Mamut, their eldest
shaman and the leader of the entire Mamutoi priesthood, who
becomes Ayla's mentor and colleague in the visionary and
esoteric fields of thought. Mamut is also one of the first to
become aware of Ayla's unique upbringing. Also within the Lion
Camp is a six-year-old boy named Rydag who, like Ayla's lost
son Durc, is half Clan and half Other. He cannot speak, having
the same vocal limitations as the Clan, but he also has their
ancestral memories. Ayla quickly discovers this and teaches
him, and the rest of the Lion Camp, the Clan sign language.
Rydag's intelligence, maturity and wit endear him to Jondalar
as well, who learns to overcome his cultural prejudice towards
Clan and half-Clan people. More so than any other book in the
series, The Mammoth Hunters relies on the tension created by
the relationships between the characters to create a storyline.
Ayla is susceptible to being deceived or confused; she was
brought up among essentially honest people who due to their
visual language are incapable of deception. She also does not
know that when a man asks her to "share Pleasures" with him,
she has the option of refusing, since Clan women did not. The
primary conflict is a love triangle between Jondalar, Ayla, and
Lion Camp member Ranec. Ayla is attracted to Ranec, shares
"Pleasures" with him a few times, and comes close to marrying
him before several last-minute revelations reunite the former
pair. At the end of this novel, Ayla and Jondalar leave for the
year-long return journey to Jondalar's people, a journey
detailed in The Plains of Passage and continued in The Shelters
of Stone. Previous readers know the archeological descriptions
are detailed and accurate.

This book is best called historical fiction. It describes the birth
of Marie Antoinette's son, Louis Charles, in 1785 and his
imprisonment after the French Revolution. Officially Louis died
in 1795 still a prisoner. The book presents one of the several
legends about his being freed from prison by loyalists and going
on to have many adventures until he died in 1858. This is a
story by a writer certainly sympathetic to the royal lineage, but
if the publication date is believed, 1867, it portrays an idea
popular at the time. As such it is culturally important.

The Marriage Plot by Jeffrey Eugenides

Modern Fiction
This is Eugenides’ third novel. It is about the matrimonial
choices of an eligible young woman, Madeleine, living in the
1980s.She is a graduating English major whose head’s been
made to swim with postmodern literary theory. She has two
suitors: Leonard, a brilliant, powerfully attractive, mentally
unstable scientist, and Mitchell, a just-good-friends sort who, as
college has progressed, has become increasingly drawn to
religion, much to his own surprise. The two men are a study in
contrasts. The book frequently shifts perspectives, following
Mitchell on a pilgrimage to Europe, then to Calcutta, with the
latter destination inspired by his admiration for Mother Theresa.
Eugenides also focuses, in detail, on Mitchell’s developing
consciousness. He gives just as much attention to the inner life
of Leonard, whose manic depression and experiments in
adjusting his own medication volleys him from one extreme to
the other, dragging those around him with him. But Madeleine
remains at the center of the novel, and not just as a prize to be
won. She begins the novel driven by love to swoon and pout.
She ends it wise with experience, having learned that we live
under the burden of love and must decide how, or whether, to
carry its weight.

This book is a collection of three lectures given by the Nobel

which Feynman investigates the relationship between science
and society. In the first lecture, he explains the nature of
science: that it is a "method for finding things out", and that it
is "based on the principle that observation is the judge of
whether something is so or not" He says uncertainty and doubt
in science is a good thing, because it always keeps the door
open for further investigation. The second lecture, gives his
views on the relationship between science, religion and politics.
In the third lecture he discusses his views on modern society
and how unscientific it is. This book gives an insight into the
thinking of one of the greatest intellects of the 20th century.

For Ender fans this is departure. There have been comparisons
made of this book and the Book of Mormon. Harmony, a planet
settled 40 million years ago following the destruction of Earth,
is overseen by the Oversoul, an intelligent computer able to
communicate telepathically with certain of the inhabitants. A bit
jarring is the idea that the computer, in order to prevent war,
has arranged that humans are prevented from inventing the
wheel, but have advanced solid state electronics. The hero,
Nafai, lives in a semi-matriarchal city where women rule
politically and men contract short-time marriages. Probably
because of the computer breakdown, there is a threatened war
between different groups of men. Other readers have said this
book is really about the relationship between men and women
and/or whether God is omnipotent or good. Whatever your
take, it's a very good read.

Modern Fiction
This is a Pulitzer Prize and best selling novel. The protagonist
Cal Stephanides (initially called "Callie") is a hermaphrodite
man of Greek descent with a medical condition which causes
him to have certain feminine traits. The first half of the novel is
about his family, and his grandparents' migration to the United
States in 1922 and follows their assimilation into the American
society. The latter half of the novel, which is set in the late 20th
century, focuses on Cal's experiences in his hometown Detroit,
Michigan and his escape to San Francisco where he comes to
terms with his modified gender identity. The novel's main
themes are nature vs. nurture and the differing experiences of
polar opposites—such as between men and women.

Mockingjay is the third installment of The Hunger Games
trilogy. After her rescue by the rebels, Katniss reluctantly
agrees to become "the Mockingjay", a symbol of the rebellion
against the Capitol. As part of a deal, she demands from
President Coin immunity for all of the victors of the Hunger
Games and the right to kill President Snow herself. Peeta is
rescued from the Capitol, but he has been brainwashed into
hating Katniss, and tries to kill her upon their reunion. Finally,
the rebels begin an assault on the Capitol itself, in which
Katniss is a part. When an assault goes wrong, Katniss and her
team flee further into the Capitol with the intent of finding and
killing President Snow. Eventually Katniss finds herself pressing
on alone towards Snow's mansion., Afterwards, bombs placed
in supply packages injure her, kill her sister and many others.
President Snow is tried and found guilty, but he tells Katniss
that the final assault that killed her sister was ordered by
President Coin. Katniss realizes that if this is true, the bombing
plan was developed by her friend Gale working with Coin .
When she is supposed to execute Snow, she realizes what
happened and kills Coin instead. With the fighting over, Peeta
returns largely recovered from his brainwashing. In the
epilogue, Katniss speaks as an adult fifteen years later and is
married to Peeta. The Hunger Games are over, but she dreads
the day her children learn the details of their parents'
involvement in both the Games and the war.

The Naked Sun by Isaac Asimov

Science Fiction
This is a whodunit, in addition to being science fiction. Elijah
Baley is called in to investigate a murder on the planet of
Solaria, partnering with the human form robot R. Daneel
Olivaw. Before leaving Earth, he is asked by Earth's
government to assess the Solarian society for weaknesses.
Solaria has a rigidly controlled population of twenty thousand,
and robots outnumber humans ten thousand to one. People are
strictly taught from birth to despise personal contact. They live
on huge estates, either alone or with their spouse only.
Communication is done via holographic telepresence (called
viewing, as opposed to in-person seeing). On Earth society has
also evolved so that people spend their lives in underground
interlinked cities, never venturing outside. A central theme is
whether a robot can harm a human when governed by the
three laws of robotics. We learn that the robot can kill if he
does not know his action will cause harm. Bailey point out that
robots can be used to fight wars. When Bailey returns to Earth
the similarities between the societies of Earth and Solaria are
seen.

Cloning and how it might affect real people who are raised to
become organ donors. The narrator, now 31 remembers her life
at an English boarding school for "special students." The
reminiscence is told from the point of view of Kathy H., now
31., As an adult, Kathy re-engages in lapsed friendships with
classmates Ruth and Tommy, examining the details of their
shared youth and revisiting with growing awareness the clues
and anecdotal evidence apparent to them even as youngsters
that they were "different" from everyone outside. Ultimately,
readers learn that the children are clones, raised solely for the
purpose of medical harvesting of organs, their lifespan
circumscribed by years when they are designated as carers,
followed by a short period as active donors, culminating in what
is obliquely referred to as "completion." The recovery centers
where Kathy serves as a carer for Ruth and then Tommy
provide the setting for the latter half of the novel, defining the
distinct rhythms and tenor of their days much as the school did
when they were young. The tension and bond of their
relationship is as much a theme of the book as is cloning.

The Number of the Beast by Robert A. Heinlein
$4.50
Buy Now
Science Fiction
The book is a series of diary entries by each of the four main
characters. They travel in the Gay Deceiver, a spaceship, which
is outfitted with a "continua" device and armed . The geometry
of the novel's universe contains six dimensions; the three
spatial dimensions as they exist in the real world, and three
time dimensions - t, the real world's time dimension, τ (tau),
and т (teh). The continua device can travel on all six axis. The
continua device allows travel into fictional universes like as well
as through time. An attempt to visit Barsoom takes them to an
apparently different version of Mars than in the Barsoom
novels. The novel lies somewhere between parody and homage
in its deliberate use of the style of the 1930’s pulp novels. It
contains in-jokes and references to the author. Heinlein
presents the idea that universes are created by the act of
imagining them, so that all fictional worlds are in fact real. All­
in-all, a lot of fun.

We first meet Jimmy after a cataclysmic event which seems to
have destroyed most human life. Jimmy grew up in a world split
between corporate compounds and pleeblands (unsafe,
populous and polluted urban centers). His best friend was
"Crake," the genius everyone respected. The two encountered
Oryx on the Net; she was the eight-year-old star of a pedophilic
film on a site called HottTotts. Oryx's story is a counterpoint to
Jimmy and Crake's affluent adolescence. Jimmy meets Oryx
much later-after college, after Crake gets Jimmy a job with
ReJoovenEsence. Crake is designing the Crakers-a new,
multicolored placid race of human beings. He's procured Oryx to
be his personal assistant. She teaches the Crakers how to cope
in the world and goes out on secret missions. The mystery on
which this tale hinges is how Crake and Oryx and civilization
vanished, and how Jimmy survived.

The book describes what occurs after an electromagnetic pulse
attack on the United States. It is set in a small town in North
Carolina, but the effects would apply in any developed nation.
The hero of the story is John Matherson a former U.S. Army
Colonel and a professor at a local college. Within hours it
becomes clear that this is no ordinary power outage, and that
the power may be off for a very long time. Every modern
electrical device is dead., The United States has, in an instant,
been thrown back into the 19th century; but the narration in
the book points out that 21st century people are not at all
equipped to live under 19th century conditions. The story shifts
quickly to how the community reacts. Without modern utilities
and supplies, diseases surge.. The social order begins to break
down. After a time, the extreme shortages of food necessitate
difficult choices about who gets how much food and which
people are to be deliberately underfed to the point of
starvation. This is a fictional story, but the issues described
could be real if such an attack did take place. It might be
studied to learn what to expect and/or how to prepare.

eighteenth and 20th-century Scotland. That is, an English nurse
in 1945 is transported through time back to the 18th century.
The story tells of her adventures including marrying a younger
man (Fraser) than the husband she left behind. Her 20th
century knowledge enables her to be a healer, but also subjects
her to suspicion. The love interest is a major part of this book,
but it is also filled with detail about life among the Scottish
clans of the time.

The Paris Wife by Paula McLain

Historical Fiction
The Paris Wife is a novelisation of Ernest Hemingway’s first
marriage from the point of view of his quiet and good-tempered
spouse. Hadley Richardson is 28 when she first meets the
glamorous young war hero at a party. They marry and quickly
go to Paris. This is the Paris of Ezra Pound, F Scott Fitzgerald
and Gertrude Stein with whom the young couple associate.
Hemingway has written about this period of his life in A
Moveable Feast, but the difference between the two books is
that the action here is largely seen through Hadley's eyes; the
domestic takes precedent and there is more emotion and
exposition than Papa would permit. He writes, she cooks, and
they drink away the evenings "until we were beautifully blurred
and happy to be there together". Hadley discovers she's
pregnant at just about the time Hemingway starts philandering.
We watch as the marriage dissolves and Hemingway moves on.

An update to the Frankenstein story. In this book, Dr.
Frankenstein has survived into the 21st century, masquerading
as biotech tycoon Victor Helios. Helios wants to replace flawed
humanity with his New Race, people born and fermented in
pods, their personalities programmed by him, their
imperfections removed in the lab. But at least one of his
creations has become a serial killer, trying to assemble the
perfect woman from parts of many. There are a number of
interesting characters: one of Victor's creations who suffers
from autism and is trying to understand it; a cloned priest who
serves as a clandestine member of Helios's army; Helios's
custom-made wife, unique among his creations in that she's
allowed to feel shame; and, tying it all together, a classic
buddy-cop set of homicide detectives who slowly come to
understand that the butcher they're chasing isn't quite human.
The odd juxtaposition of a police procedural with a neo-gothic,
mad scientist plot gives the novel an unusual and intriguing
feel. There is a cliffhanger ending.

Mystery
The setting is largely the Pacific Northwest but with a cast of
characters that includes a Somali American, a Brit, a
Hungarian, a couple of Chinese and several Russians. Also a
few Canadians, and plenty of folks who would rather not be
identified by nationality. Richard Forthrast, is the head of the
corporation behind "T'Rain," a smash "World of Warcraft"­
style online role-playing game. But just as worthy of the label
is Zula, Richard's adoptive, African-born niece, who moves to
Seattle for work for him. As in its real-world analogue, "T'Rain"
has spawned a vibrant online economy, including Chinese "gold
farmers" who make actual cash by performing virtual tasks.
When Zula finds herself caught up in a hunt, by Russian
mobsters, for an unscrupulous band of these gamer-cum­
hackers, she finds herself kidnapped to the Chinese port city of
Xiamen.
There are a number of characters of whom the most
impressive is Sokolov, a henchman-enforcer to Zula's
kidnapper, but who emerges as an honorable, intelligent, but
still thoroughly tough guy. Richard himself, though resembling
the outlaw-hippie-turned-tech-guru archetype, is grounded by
his Iowa roots. Then there's Csongor, the Hungarian hacker;
Yuxia, a Xiamen street hustler; and Olivia, the British spy. This
is a very big book. (2181 pages in 18 point type.) Each chapter
(representing one day) is broken up into short passages, each
from a different character's perspective. The final day, though,
comprising the final 200 pages, is a multipronged convergence
on a forest compound by all the characters.

conclude that what she thought ended with Fielding's death
and an attempt on her own life is only the beginning of
something far more destructive. There is conspiracy and

roads towards the sea. The man realizes he is dying, yet still
struggles to protect his son from the constant threats of
attack, exposure, and starvation. There are a few ups and a lot

Finally the man dies and the son stays with his father’s body

him that he is one of the "good guys" and takes him under his
protection. This story is all about the journey, not the

Short Stories
This book deals with children in Africa: from selling children in
Gabon to the Muslim vs. Christian battles in Ethiopia. The
characters face choices that most American students will never
have to—whether or not to prostitute oneself to provide money
for one's homeless family, whether to save oneself, even if it
means sacrificing a beloved sibling in the process. There are
five independent stories in the book. Each is a work of fiction,
but is based on real situations that have transpired. In the
Afterword, written by a pastor who knows the author, Uwem
Akpan, the writer offers his belief that the publication of these
stories is a bold attempt to enlighten readers about children of
Africa, which in turn may create a passionate desire to create a
safer place for children all over the world.

This story is told by three narrators. The morning after her
baptism into the Rev. Stephen Drew's Vermont church, Alice
Hayward and her abusive husband are found dead in their
home, an apparent murder-suicide. Stephen, the novel's first
narrator, is so racked with guilt over his failure to save Alice
that he leaves town. Soon, he meets Heather Laurent, the
author of a book about angels. Stephen's deeply sympathetic
narration is challenged by the next two narrators: a deputy
state attorney, whose suspicions are aroused initially by
Stephen's abrupt departure (and then by questions about his
relationship with Alice), and Heather, who distances herself
from Stephen for similar reasons and risks the trip into her
dark past by seeking out Katie, the Haywards' now-orphaned
15-year-old daughter who puts into play the final pieces of the
puzzle, setting things up for a touching twist.

This is another story with a Brainship. Carialle is the brain and
Keff is the brawn. They are hoping to achieve first alien contact
because Cencom may not renew their contract because Carialle
had an unfortunate experience which left her vulnerable to
shutdown. On the chilly planet Ozran they discover a
population of humanoids ruled by arrogant “wizards” who have
very impressive, seemingly magic, powers. Keff becomes a
captive of the wizards, but is aided by a young, rebellious
wizard. Meanwhile, Carialle has discovered the source of the
wizards’ power, a projector set up by an alien race. Use of the
projector is dooming the planet to eventual extinction and the
signs are already present. Carialle also discovers that frog like
creatures living in the swamp are really the previous masters
of the plant. Carialle engineers an end to fighting among the
wizards and takes action that will save the planet.

run up a gambling debt of $786,000 with mobster Bobby
Sunflower and is being held until the cash can be produced.
Nobody else will pay to get Vinnie back, leaving it up to
Stephanie, office manager Connie, and file clerk Lula to raise
the money if they want to save their jobs. In the business of
tracking down people, Stephanie, Lula, and Connie have an
advantage in finding Vinnie. If they can rescue him, it will buy

town’s hottest cop, Joe Morelli, and the dark and dangerous
security expert, Ranger. The lucky bottle will have Stephanie

presenting a new understanding of human nature.
Incorporating research in the brain and the unconscious mind..
This is the realm of emotions, intuitions, biases, longings,
genetic predispositions, personality traits, and social norms:
where character is formed and where our most important life
decisions are made. Brooks draws on and presents a wealth of
current research from numerous disciplines always relating the
information to the lives of Harold and Erica.,. He argues that
there is a bias in modern culture that overemphasizes
rationalism, individualism, and IQ. Along the way, he criticizes
conventional definitions of success while looking toward a
culture based on trust and humility.

Songs of Distant Earth – Arthur C. Clarke
$3.50

Science Fiction
The story takes place in the future when Earth has been
destroyed by an unstable sun. The disaster was foreseen and
nearby stars were colonized. The story takes place on planet
Thalassa where the original colonists have been alone for over
a thousand years. Now they are visited by the last starship
from Earth. The story describes the clash of cultures. The
classic Clarke themes are here: The space elevator, the
possibly intelligent yet wholly alien life form, the theories on
how humans will cross the gulf between the stars. He is also
blunt in his thoughts on matters like religion, guns and
sexuality. This is one of the best of his later works.

Song of Susannah by Stephen King
$5.65
Buy Now
Fantasy
This is the sixth novel in the Dark Tower series. Taking place
mainly in our world (New York City and East Stoneham,
Maine), this book picks up where Wolves of the Calla left off,
with the ka-tet employing the help of the Manni to open the
magic door inside Doorway Cave. The ka-tet are split up by the
magic door, or perhaps ka, and sent to different 'wheres' and
'whens' in order to accomplish several essential goals
pertaining to their quest towards the mysterious Dark Tower.
Susannah Dean is partially trapped in her own mind by Mia,
the former demon and now very-pregnant mortal woman who
had taken control of her body shortly after the final battle in
Wolves of the Calla. Susannah and Mia, with their shared body
mostly under the control of Mia, escape to New York of 1999.
Jake, Oy, and Father Callahan follow Susannah to the New
York City of 1999 in order to save Susannah from the danger
Mia has put her in by delivering her into the custody of the
Crimson King's henchmen. While in New York, Jake and
Callahan also hide Black Thirteen in a locker in the World Trade
Center. While they are in New York, Roland and Eddie Dean
are sent by the magic doorway to Maine in 1977, with the goal
of securing the ownership of a vacant lot in New York from its
current owner. The gunslingers have seen and felt the power of
a rose that is located in the vacant lot and suspect it to be
some sort of secondary hub to the universe, or possibly even a
representation of the Dark Tower itself. After accomplishing
their primary goal, they learn of the nearby location of Stephen
King's home. They are familiar with the author's name after
coming into possession of a copy of his novel 'Salem's Lot in
the Calla, and they decide to pay him a visit. King's presence,
and his relationship to the Dark Tower, cause the very reality
surrounding his Maine town to become "thin." Strange
creatures called "walk-ins" begin emerging and plaguing the
community. During their visit to him, the Gunslinger
hypnotizes King and finds out that King is not a god, but rather
a medium for the story of the Dark Tower to transmit itself
through. Roland also implants in King the suggestion to restart
his efforts in writing the Dark Tower series, which he has
abandoned of late, claiming that there are major forces
involved that are trying to prevent him from finishing it. The
ka-tet are convinced that the success of their quest itself
depends somehow on King's writing about it through the story.
The book ends with Jake and Callahan entering with weapons
raised.

Spartacus by Howard Fast
$2.99
Buy Now
Historical Fiction
This book is about the slave revolt led by Spartacus about 71
BC. It changes from past to present tense. This is
accomplished by having several Roman aristocrats meet, in the
past tense, to tell tales of the uprising and Spartacus. The tales
are told in the present tense directly by the narrator, with
details going far beyond the Romans' possible knowledge. The
novel deviates from and extends known historical facts. The
novel's central theme is that man's most basic values are
freedom, love, hope, and finally life. Oppression and slavery
strip these away until the oppressed have nothing to lose by
revolting. Spartacus stands as an eternal symbol of how man
must fight against political systems that oppress man's values.
Fast self-published this book during the McCarthy era when he
could not get any publishers to do it. They were reacting to his
blacklisting after refusing to testify before Congress.

Vix's ex-boyfriend and first love, Bru. Vix is shocked and
becomes sick with the news. We learn about Vix's family and
first encounter with Caitlin in the sixth grade.. This is when
Vix's whole world is turned upside down. This section of the
book focuses on the mishaps and adventures that the kids go
through, including Vix and Caitlin and their crushes on two
older boys, Joseph "Bru" Brudegher and his cousin, Von. As the
girls mature, they encounter their first heterosexual
experiences (Caitlin with an Italian ski-instructor, then Von,
supposedly) and Vix's in-depth and long-term relationship with
Bru, which continues into her college years when she attends
Harvard on a scholarship. Caitlin is accepted at Wellesley but
chooses not to attend. At Harvard Vix makes new friends, most
notably Maia, her uptight roommate. However, things turn sour
when Vix realizes she doesn't know what she wants in life and
she and Bru temporarily break up during her Junior year of
college. Just before graduation, Bru asks Vix to marry him, but
she says no after realizing that they do not want the same
things in life.
Vix misses Bru, but moves on and casually dates other people,
whilst Caitlin has numerous hetero and homosexual escapades
in Europe. The girls keep in loose contact over the years, each
becoming busy with her own life until the fateful day when
Caitlin makes that phone call and tells Vix about her upcoming
nuptials to Bru. There is much more romantic complexity. In
the end, Vix, now in her thirties, is enjoying married life and
motherhood when she and everyone else learn that Caitlin
disappears in a boating accident under mysterious
circumstances. The closing thought is Vix's recount of her
"summer sister" and the memories they will always share, and
wishing that things could have ended differently.
This not the usual Blume book about the Tween years, but it
involves the reader just as much.

Mystery
Another typically well told Grisham story. Ray Atlee is a law
professor from an old Southern family. His father is a retired
judge and he has a brother, Forrest. When he visits his father
and find him dead, he discovers over three million dollars in
the house - money that is not part of Judge Atlee's will. Ray
immediately thinks the money is "dirty" because his father
could not possibly have made so much money in his career. He
decides to take the money without making it officially part of
the estate, and does not tell anyone about it: As the story
progresses, Ray is being followed; someone else knows about
the money. After his own investigations into the roots of the
money and the identity of his shadow—including trips to
casinos and shady meetings with prominent southern
lawyers—he eventually discovers that Forrest has the money.
He finds Forrest in a drug rehab compound and confronts him.
At the end both part, with Forrest telling Ray that he will
contact him in a year.

Biography
“Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!": is an edited
collection of reminiscences by the Nobel Prize-winning physicist
Richard Feynman. (1918-1988) The book, released in 1985,
covers a variety of incidents in Feynman's life. There are
sections on his early life, studying at MIT and studying and
teaching at Princeton. Finally, most of his adult life was spent
teaching at Cal. Tech. Some are lighthearted in tone, such as
his fascination with safe-cracking, studying various languages,
frequenting topless bars, sitting with groups of other people
and getting more involved with their area of interest such as
biology or philosophy, and ventures into art and samba music.
Others cover more serious material, including his work on the
Manhattan Project and his critique of science education system
in Brazil. This is one of the most honest autobiographies ever
written. It humanizes a great genius.

Fitzgerald’s first book and the one that catapulted him to fame
while barely out of college. No doubt semi-autobiographical, it
looks at the upper crust of the pre-World War I generation.
Prep schools, Princeton, wealth, dissipation. The hero should
rather be called a protagonist and not a very admirable
character. He’s selfish and unkind, but doesn't pretend to be
anything other than what he is. Also to his credit, he is
sensitive to beauty everywhere, and he can see merit in
others. His triumph comes only by surviving.

A Time of Changes by Robert Silverberg

Science Fiction
This book won the Nebula in 1972. It is set in a culture where
the first person singular is forbidden, and words such as “I” or
“me” are treated as obscenities. A powerful new drug enables
protagonist Kinnall Darival to attain telepathic contact with
others, and this sharing brings him the courage to lead a
revolution against his repressive culture. Kinnall is a provincial
prince. He’s tormented by his illicit passion for his bondsister.
After his brother Stirron becomes Prime Septarch, Kinnall
exiles himself to the neighboring province of Glin to avoid a
direct clash with him. He becomes a fugitive in Glin and is
declared an illegal alien, leaving him as a penniless fugitive.
Works in a logging camp, but he is eventually recognized as
the fugitive prince and gets work as a seaman on a merchant
boat headed to the province of Manneran. Once there, he
becomes a powerful bureaucrat, marries his bondsister’s lookalike and cousin Loimel. He then meets the earthman Schweiz
with whom he begins to freely discuss his alienation from his
own culture. Schweiz tells him about the wonderful drug
available in the wild southern country of Sumara Borthan.
Finally, both go to a country lodge and share the secret drug,
causing their minds to become open to one another and
creating a strong connection between them. Kinnall and
Schweiz organize a small expedition to Sumara Borthan where
they share the drug with the natives in a kind of social magic
ritual. Kinnall starts to be the apostle of a new selfbaring cult,
convincing many people to share the telepathic drug with him.
Among them is his bondbrother Noim. Finally, betrayed and
revealed, he seeks escape to Noim's estate in Salla. There he
is visited by his beloved Halum, and they share the drug. She
is so disturbed by the experience that she enters the pen of
the voracious stormshields, who shred her to pieces. Kinnall
takes his last flight to the Burnt Lowlands where he ultimately
is captured by the royal guards. The book ends ambiguously.
One possibility is that though Kinnal himself was executed, the
book becomes the scriptures of a cult; another possibility is
that it was all nothing but a drug induced hallucination.

This is the 21st book in the Kinsey Millhone series. A new
character is Michael Sutton who claims to have had a strange
experience - now remembering an incident in 1988 when he
was 6-years-old. He saw two men in a woods burying a rather
large bundle. That was the same time that a girl, Mary Clare,
was kidnapped and never found. The story that he tells Kinsey
convinces her to at least give him a little of her time to
investigate and see if anything turns up. Flashback about 25
years to the Unruh home. Deborah and her husband, a well
placed family, are a bit chagrined when their son, Greg,
appears with Shelly and her small son. Deborah and Shelly are
a bit like oil and water - Shelly's a manipulator par excellence.
Segue to Kinsey who's dealing with personal problems plus
Michael's siblings who paint him as unreliable. Is he a liar, a
trouble maker or are his brother and sister trying to hide
something? Moving back and forth in time keeps the plot
hustling along as Kinsey learns more, probably much of which
she never wanted to know.

Historical Fiction
This book is the sequel to The Clan of the Cave Bear and
second in the Earth's Children series. Once again the main
character is Ayla, from The Clan of the Cave Bear. She has
been exiled from the Clan, the band of Neanderthals who had
raised her from early childhood and now searches for her own
people, whom the Clan refer to as "the Others." In a parallel
narrative, Jondalar, a young Cro-Magnon man accompanies his
younger half-brother on a traditional rite of passage called the
Great Journey. In these episodes, we learn of the Cro­
Magnon's Neolithic nature religion, centered on the worship of
the Great Mother of All, and follow their adventures and sexual
exploits. Ayla, alone and ritually ostracized from the only
people she has ever known, travels steadily north for around
half a year until finding the book's titular valley sunk deep into
the windy landscape of the periglacial loess steppes in Ukraine.
Worried she might never find the Others, she begins to prepare
for winter. Finding a suitable cave and many conveniences in
the valley she establishes a comfortable but lonely life there.
She tames a young horse and treats an injured cave lion cub.
Jondalar and Ayla meet when his brother is killed by the now
grown cub. Ayla heals Jondalar's injuries and they begin to
learn to communicate and get to know each other. They fall in
love. Ayla is torn between her fear of leaving her valley and
her hope of living with her own kind. Finally they decide to
leave the Valley of Horses. This is historical accuracy about
very ancient times and good story telling combined.

of rekindling their romance. He believes he must "destroy
whole worlds" to win back her affection and he is willing to do
anything for her. Specifically this includes killing people. There
are interweaved the stories of a fashion model, a film
distributor and an aspiring actress hoping for her big break. On
display is a lack of morality by the characters and the opulence
and artificial glamour of the setting. This book might be

man , Jimmy Keith who has two sons, Stuart and Graham. She
plans to do research on the Jacobite rebellion in 1708. Both
sons begin to fall in love with Carrie. As her research
intensifies, and her need for more information increases, she
calls on their father to fill in details about their ancestor's
story. Gradually as her research and writing, as well as her
love interests, progress, Carries finds herself swept up in more
than just words on paper. She finds herself caught in a time
warp of sorts. Her flashes of insight feel more like memory
than writing and her love for one of the brothers feels more
compelling than just a present day love interest. As Carrie
writes her book she finds that she is, in fact, recounting her
own story - a story that began in 1700 and a love that has
lasted through time. Her flashes of deja vu are more than just
images - they are images that are filled with remembrance
that are as real to her as her present day life.

The Year of the Flood by Margaret Atwood

Science Fiction
The Waterless Flood has long been predicted by God’s
Gardeners, a back-to-nature cult founded by Adam One. Its
members live simply and organically, sing terrible hymns, have
no dress sense and peddle a bolted-together theology, difficult
to think about if you think at all. With values diametrically
opposed to those of the ruling CorpSEcorps, the Gardeners
aren’t “the answer,” but at least they’ve asked enough
questions to avoid a life of endless shopping and face-lifts.
The Gardeners sometimes do evangelical work in the mean
streets, known as the pleeblands, and rescue a young woman
named Toby from the murderous clutches of her sex-crazed
boss. As a Gardener, Toby rises to the position of Eve Six, in
charge of bees, herbs and potions, but her ex-boss never stops
pursuing her. To save herself she receives a new identity in the
health spa AnooYoo. Recovering from plastic surgery, she
avoids the deadly wipeout germ of the plague. She and a
former pole dancer, Ren, escape a plague and must survive in
a world where pigs have human brain tissue and sheep are
bred with human hair in different colors. ,
The sensitive CorpSEcorps elite boy Glenn, starts out as a
teenage sympathizer for the Gardeners but is too seduced by
his own brainpower to trust nature.The friendship between
women is noted and at the end of the novel allows for hope.

The Bell Jar

Modern Fiction
The Bell Jar is Sylvia Plath's only novel, originally
published under the pseudonym "Victoria Lucas" in 1963.
The novel is semi-autobiographical with the names of
places and people changed. Plath committed suicide a
month after its first UK publication. The novel was
published under Plath's name for the first time in 1967 and
was not published in the United States until 1971,
pursuant to the wishes of Plath's mother and her husband
Ted Hughes.
The main character is Esther Greenwood, a young woman
from the Boston suburbs, who has a summer internship at
a prominent magazine in New York City. Her experiences
in the city and at the magazine frighten and disorient her.
She has a benefactress in Philomena Guinea, a formerly
successful fiction writer who will, later during Esther's
hospitalization, pay for some of her treatments.
Esther describes in detail several seriocomic incidents
during her internship and reminisces about her friend
Buddy, whom she has dated more or less seriously and
who considers himself her de facto fiancé. When she
returns to her home she is in low spirits and despondent.
Life is not going as she had imagined.
Esther's mental state worsens. She describes her
depression as a feeling of being trapped under a bell jar,
struggling for breath. She makes several half-hearted
attempts at suicide. She survives and is sent to several
mental hospitals. She tells her therapist how she envies
the freedom that men have, but as a woman, worries
about getting pregnant. When she is given a diaphragm
she feels free from her fears about the consequences of
sex. The novel ends with her entering the room for her
interview which will decide whether she can leave the
hospital.

Science Fiction
Three novellas by Silverberg in mid-career. Two of the
stories concern how mankind deals with the subject of
death, while the third has man's relation to religion and
God as its central theme.
The title story takes place in a futuristic world when the
process of reanimating the recently deceased has been
perfected. These "Deads" live separately in their own
communes (Cold Towns), apart from the "Warms," and
have their own customs and society. The main character is
now stalking his reanimated wife with the hope of a
reunion. This story won a Nebula Award.
In the second story God has chosen to reveal himself,
effects a miracle, but this only leads to human misery as
the organized religions become suspicious of God's
motives.
The third story takes place in 2095 when medicine has
extended life to age 150 and beyond. But it is a civic duty
to “Go” at the proper time to make way for newborns. The
main character goes through the preparation for “Going.”

A Confederacy of Dunces

Modern Fiction
A Pulitzer Prize winner this book is now considered a
canonical work of modern literature of the Southern United
States.
The central character, Ignatius J. Reilly, is an educated but
slothful 30-year-old man living with his mother in the
early-1960s New Orleans who, in his quest for
employment, has various adventures with colorful French
Quarter characters. He is something of a modern Don
Quixote—eccentric, idealistic, and creative, sometimes to
the point of delusion. He disdains modernity, particularly
pop culture. The disdain becomes his obsession: however
he also enjoys many modern comforts and conveniences,
and is given to claiming that the rednecks of rural
Louisiana hate all modern technology which they associate
with progress. Ignatius believes that he does not belong in
the world and that his numerous failings are the work of
some higher power. He loves to eat, and his masturbatory
fantasies lead in strange directions. Although considering
himself to have an expansive and learned worldview,
Ignatius has an aversion to ever leaving the town of his
birth.

A Pulitzer winner has written another classic.
Rev. John Ames gives a review of his life and that of his
father and grandfather in a letter to his six-year-old son.
Ames is 77 years old in 1956, in failing health, with a
much younger wife and six-year-old son; as a preacher in
the small Iowa town where he spent his entire life, he has
produced volumes and volumes of sermons and prayers,
"[t]rying to say what was true."
Ames details the often harsh conditions of perishing
Midwestern prairie towns, the Spanish influenza and two
world wars. He relates the death of his first wife and child,
and his long years alone attempting to live up to the
legacy of his fiery grandfather, a Kansas abolitionist and
his pacifist father. While doing the writing, he is forced to
confront his personal resentment of a son of his best
friend, named after him. He must comprehend and forgive
himself in order to be reconciled with his namesake. There
is no simple redemption here; despite the meditations on
faith, even readers with no religious inclinations will be
captivated.

Called “a master of the form,” Baxter has crafted 23 short
stories that appear in this volume.
The title story is deservedly a classic, and other favorites,
such as "Fenstad's Mother," have gathered resonance as
well. In each, the acutely observed real world is rocked by
the exotic or surreal. In "Poor Devil," the "devils" are a
self-destructive couple headed for a divorce; in "Ghosts," a
stranger enters a young woman's house and tells her they
are soul mates. She accuses him of being a devil, but his
intentions are much less sinister than she imagines.
"Nightfall had always brought his devils out," the narrator
says in "The Old Murderer," a touching story about an
alcoholic and an ex-con, each trying to get through the
day. In "Royal Blue," an undertow of mystery shadows a
handsome young art dealer who understands that 9/11
has affected a fundamental change in his life.

Go Tell it on the Mountain
by James Baldwin

Historical Fiction, Classic Fiction
Published in 1953 when Baldwin was nearly 30, this is not
a long book, and its action spans but a single day. Yet it
has been proclaimed one of the most important books of
the 20th century.
It uses as a frame the spiritual and moral awakening of
14-year-old John Grimes during a Saturday night service in
a Harlem storefront church. Baldwin describes the secrets
of a tormented black family during the depression. John's
parents, praying beside him, both wrestle with the ghosts
of their sinful past.
Baldwin lays down the terrible symmetries of these two
blighted lives as the ironic context for John's dark night of
the soul. When day dawns, John believes himself saved,
but his creator makes it clear that this salvation arises as
much from blindness as revelation: "He was filled with a
joy, a joy unspeakable, whose roots, though he would not
trace them on this new day of his life, were nourished by
the wellspring of a despair not yet discovered."
Baldwin dramatizes the story of the great black migration
from rural South to urban North. "Behind them was the
darkness," Baldwin writes of Gabriel and Elizabeth's lost
generation, "nothing but the darkness, and all around
them destruction, and before them nothing but the fire--a
bastard people, far from God, singing and crying in the
wilderness!".

Heir to the Glimmering World
by Cynthia Ozick
$1.99

Modern Fiction
In 1933, the Mitwissers, a family of German Jews, after
fleeing Berlin, land somewhat haphazardly in New York.
They place an ad for help in a local paper. Rose Meadows,
who narrates the story, is hired and observes the family
with the neutrality of an invisible servant. Her duties are
vaguely defined—part nanny, part secretary—and her
salary comes intermittently. Ozick portrays this household
to dazzling effect, as it adjusts to its many states of
exile—from a sense of security, from cherished ideas, and
from the consolations of each other. Ozick paints a
textured portrait of outsiders rendered powerless,
retreating into tightly coiled existences of scholarly
rapture, guarded brazenness and even calculated
lunacy—all as a means of refuting the bleakness of a
harsh, chaotic world.

The chief character in this novel is a rogue shark that
terrorizes a beach community. The Chief human character
police chief Martin Brody, is virtually the lone voice of
reason in a town filled with people who want to downplay
the shark’s presence so that tourists will not be scared
away. When the body count starts to rise, it’s Brody who
has to find a way to kill the beast, even if it means putting
his own life on the line. The characters—Brody,
oceanographer Matt Hooper, shark-hunter Quint—are not
as likable as they are in the film adaptation. Those who are
familiar with the movie, but not the book, are in for some
surprises, and those who read the book way back when
should definitely give it another look.

Olive Kitteride is a retired schoolteacher living in a small

times perceptive, at other times in sad denial, Olive
deplores the changes in her little town and in the world at
large, but she doesn’t always recognize the changes in
those around her: a former student who has lost the will to
live; Olive’s own adult child, who feels tyrannized by her
irrational sensitivities; and her husband, Henry, who finds
his loyalty to his marriage both a blessing and a curse. As
time goes on, Olive is brought to a deeper understanding
of herself and her life – sometimes painfully, but always
with ruthless honesty. This is just great writing and earned

Henry Townsend is a black farmer, bootmaker, and former
slave; William Robbins, perhaps the most powerful man in
antebellum Virginia's Manchester County becomes Henry’s
tutor. Henry becomes proprietor of his own plantation -- as
well as of his own slaves. When he dies, his widow,
succumbs to profound grief, and things begin to fall apart
at their plantation: slaves take to escaping under the cover
of night, and families who had once found love beneath the
weight of slavery begin to betray one another. Beyond the
Townsend estate, the known world also unravels: low-paid
white patrollers stand watch as slave "speculators" sell free
black people into slavery, and rumors of slave rebellions
set white families against slaves who have served them for
years.
The Known World weaves together the lives of freed and
enslaved blacks, whites, and Indians. It gives a deeper
understanding of the enduring multidimensional world
created by the institution of slavery.

A Jack Reacher novel.
Reacher travels from South Dakota to northeastern
Virginia, near Washington, D.C.: the headquarters of his
old unit, the 110th MP. It’s the closest thing to a home he
ever had.
Reacher is there to the new commanding officer, Major
Susan Turner. But Turner isn’t there and Reacher has two
pieces of shocking news, one with serious criminal
consequences, and one too personal to even think about.
Reacher fights to find Turner and clear his name, barely a
step ahead of the army, and the FBI, and the D.C. Metro
police, and four unidentified thugs.

Fantasy, Best Seller
Harry has just returned to Hogwarts for his fifth year after
a lonely summer. Dumbledore is uncommunicative and
most of the students seem to think Harry is either
conceited or crazy for insisting that Voldemort is back and
as evil as ever. Angry and scared, Harry lashes out at
friends and enemies alike. Additionally, a new Defense
Against the Dark Arts teacher and High Inquisitor of the
school is appointed. Harry is certain that Voldemort is
becoming more powerful. The adults all seem evil,
misguided, or simply powerless, so the students must take
matters into their own hands. Harry's confusion about his
godfather and father, and his apparent rejection by
Dumbledore make him question his own motives and the
condition of his soul. The power of this book comes from
the young magician's struggles with his emotions and
identity.

At one point he leaves his house and meets his high school

The setting is a remote town somewhere in Poland some
years after the last massacres of Jews in the 1640's. A
feeble-minded young woman by the name of Rechelle,
personifies the forces of evil (messianism) taking root
amongst the population and leading to the downfall of its
members, bringing total chaos. There is an epic struggle
between the forces of evil and good, of reason and
emotion, of traditional conservative Judaism and
messianism.
The Jews of Poland believe that, as Christian would say,
the End Times are here, and expect the messiah to arrive.
Shabbati Shevi appears on the scene, claiming to be the
messiah. Many Jews fall under his sway, but the Rabbi of
Goray resists and this further wracks the town. Rechelle
becomes the center of attraction because she is
unmarried. When a holy man arrives in Goray, he marries
the unfortuate Rechele, who proceeds to be possessed by
Satan.

The Testament of Mary
by Colm Toiben
$2.99
Buy Now
Historical Fiction, Philosophy/Religion
An untraditional version of the suffering of the mother of a
boy named Jesus.
This is the story told by a lonely older woman still seeking
to understand the events that become the narrative of the
New Testament and the foundation of Christianity.
Mary lives alone, years after her son's crucifixion. She has
no interest in collaborating with the authors of the
Gospel—her keepers, who provide her with food and
shelter and visit her regularly. She does not agree that her
son is the Son of God; nor that his death was “worth it;”
nor that the “group of misfits he gathered around him,
men who could not look a woman in the eye,” were holy
disciples. Mary judges herself ruthlessly (she did not stay
at the foot of the Cross until her son died—she fled, to
save herself), and is equally harsh on her judgment of
others. This woman who we know from centuries of
paintings and scripture as the docile, loving, silent,
long-suffering, obedient, worshipful mother of Christ
becomes, a tragic heroine with the relentless eloquence of
Electra or Medea or Antigone. This tour de force of
imagination and language is a portrait so vivid and
convincing that our image of Mary will be forever
transformed.

for centuries and forced to listen to the voices of all who
come after him seeking more days, more years.
Eventually, Father Time is granted his freedom, along with
a magical hourglass and a mission: a chance to redeem
himself by teaching two earthly people the true meaning of
time.
He returns to our world - now dominated by hour-counting
- and begins a journey with two unlikely partners: a
teenage girl about to give up on life, and a wealthy old
businessman who wants to live forever. To save himself,
he must save them both. And stop the world to do so.

Madam Tussard
by Michelle Moran
$1.99
Buy Now
Biography, Historical Fiction
One reviewer said: “Michelle Moran has written a deft mix
of historical accuracy and engaging fiction.” It is more
historical than fiction.
The year is 1788, and the French Revolution is about to
begin…Marie Tussaud has learned the secrets of wax
sculpting by working alongside her uncle in their
celebrated wax museum. Marie's museum provides
Parisians with the very latest news on fashion, gossip,
even politics. Her customers hail from every walk of life,
and when word arrives that the royals themselves are
coming to see their likenesses, Marie never dreams that
the king's sister will request her presence at Versailles as a
royal tutor in wax sculpting. As Marie becomes acquainted
with her pupil, Princess Élisabeth, she is taken to meet
both Marie Antoinette and King Louis XVI, who introduce
her to the glamorous life at court. From lavish parties with
more delicacies than she's ever seen, Marie steps into a
world entirely different from her own where people are
selling their teeth to put food on the table. Meanwhile,
many resent the vast separation between rich and poor. In
salons and cafes across Paris, people like Camille
Desmoulins, Jean-Paul Marat, and Maximilien Robespierre
are lashing out against the monarchy. There's whispered
talk of revolution. Will Marie be able to hold on to both the
love of her life and her friendship with the royal family as
France approaches civil war?
Spanning five years from the budding revolution to the
Reign of Terror, Madame Tussaud brings us into the world
of an incredible heroine whose talent for wax modeling
saved her life and preserved the faces of a vanished
kingdom.

Stoneybridge is a small town on the west coast of Ireland.
When Chicky Starr decides to take an old, decaying

everyone thinks she is crazy.
The story takes place around an unlikely cast of

When Chicky welcomes her guests they are: John, the
American movie star, who thinks he has arrived incognito;
Winnie and Lillian who are forced into taking a holiday
together; Nicola and Henry, husband and wife, who have
been shaken by seeing too much death practicing
medicine; Anders who hates his father’s business, but has
a real talent for music; Miss Nell Howe, a retired
schoolteacher who criticizes everything and leaves a day
early; the Walls who are disappointed to have won this
second-prize holiday in a contest where first prize was
Paris; and Freda, the librarian, who is afraid of her own
psychic visions.
This is Binchy’s last book, published posthumously, and

Wild Swans
by Jung Chan
$3.99
Buy Now
Biography, Non Fiction
A bestselling classic in thirty languages. It is the story of
three generations in twentieth-century China, written by a
granddaughter daughter. It is an engrossing record of
Mao's impact on China, an unusual window on the female
experience in the modern world, and an inspiring tale of
courage and love.
Jung Chang describes the life of her grandmother, a
warlord's concubine; her mother's struggles as a young
idealistic Communist; and her parents' experience as
members of the Communist elite and their ordeal during
the Cultural Revolution. Chang was a Red Guard briefly at
the age of fourteen, then worked as a peasant, a "barefoot
doctor," a steelworker, and an electrician.
This is history from 1911 to 1976, but it is not a textbook.
You will never feel as though you just entered a lecture
hall and are sitting through a journalistic or pedantic
analysis of these turbulent times. The book takes us from
the end of Imperial China, through Japanese occupation,
the Nationalist movement, the Civil War between the
Kuomintang and the Communists, Communist takeover,
Mao's Great Leap Forward starving tens of millions to
death, the Cultural Revolution turning a national identity
upon it's head and breaking it's collective spirit in the
process, to Mao Zedong's death, you will be amazed at
what you learn in this book about the capacity of the heart
to perservere and triumph.

The World According to Garp
by John Irving
$.99
Buy Now
Classic Fiction,
Millions have already read this modern classic.
The story is about the life of T. S. Garp who was born as
the result of artificial insemination organized by his
mother. She raises young Garp alone, taking a position at
the all-boys school Steering School in New England.
Garp grows up, becoming interested in sex, wrestling, and
writing fiction—three topics in which his mother has little
interest. After his graduation in 1961, his mother takes
him to Vienna where he writes his first novella. At the
same time, his mother begins writing her autobiography, A
Sexual Suspect. After they return to the school Garp
marries Helen, the wrestling coach's daughter and founds
his family, he a struggling writer, she a teacher of English.
The publication of her autobiography makes his mother
famous. She becomes a feminist icon. Feminists view her
book as a manifesto of a woman who does not care to bind
herself to a man, and who chooses to raise a child on her
own.
Garp becomes a devoted parent, wrestling with anxiety for
the safety of his children and a desire to keep them safe
from the dangers of the world. He and his family inevitably
experience dark and violent events through which the
characters change and grow. Garp learns, often painfully,
from the women in his life who are struggling to become
more tolerant in the face of intolerance. The story is
decidedly rich with (in the words of Garp's teacher) "lunacy
and sorrow," and the sometimes ridiculous chains of
events the characters experience still resonate with painful
truth.
The novel contains several sub-stories: Garp's first
novella; a short story; and the first chapter of his novel,
The World According to Bensenhaver. The book also
contains some motifs that appear in almost all John Irving
novels: bears, wrestling, Vienna, New England, people who
are uninterested in having sex, and a complex Dickensian
plot that spans the protagonist's whole life. Adultery also
plays a large part, culminating in one of the novel's most
harrowing and memorable scenes.

The Signature of All Things

Modern Fiction,
The heroine of the story, Alma Whittaker, is the daughter
of a man who mad a fortune importing plants. She lives in
the mid 1800s confined for most of her life to her family
estate in Philadelphia. She yearns for a life of greater
passion and liberty and channels her desires into botany,
thrilling to the miniature universe of moss in the forests.
When she finally turns herself loose on the world, it’s to
claim her place in a lineage of explorers.
Eventually -- after trials and explorations that take her to
the far side of the world -- she even anticipates one of the
greatest scientific theories of the age, though the triumph
remains almost entirely personal. She is also not lucky in
love -- she fancies her research partner, but he ends up
married to her bimbo best friend. She but this is a sexless
marriage.
Eventually Alma finds her way to Amsterdam and becomes
master of mosses at the Botanical Garden. Two men then
enter her life -Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace.
Upon striking up a friendship with Wallace, Alma looks
back on her life. "Darwin would belong to history, yes, but
Alma had Wallace.... Then, Wallace too, would be gone.
But for now, at least he was aware of her. She was
known." In the end, Alma finds happiness doing what she
has always loved -- not with a romantic partner -- but as
part of a far-flung community of intellectual equals.

Biography
A Pulitzer winning epic biography John Adams. He appears
as the brilliant, fiercely independent, often irascible,
always honest Yankee patriot who spared nothing in his
zeal for the American Revolution; who rose to become the
second president of the United States and saved the
country from blundering into an unnecessary war; who
was learned beyond all but a few and regarded by some as
"out of his senses"; and whose marriage to the wise and
valiant Abigail Adams is one of the moving love stories in
American history.
About politics and war and social issues, but also about
human nature, love, religious faith, virtue, ambition,
friendship, and betrayal, and the far-reaching
consequences of noble ideas. An enthralling, often
surprising story of one of the most important and
fascinating Americans who ever lived.

In 1962 in Italy, a young innkeeper, meets an American

The story begins again when an elderly Italian man shows
up on a movie studio's back lot-searching for the

producer who once brought them together and his
idealistic young assistant; the army veteran turned
fledgling novelist and the rakish Richard Burton himself,
whose appetites set the whole story in motion-along with
the husbands and wives, lovers and dreamers, superstars
and losers, who populate their world in the decades that
follow. The people are flawed but fascinating as they try to
preserve their dreams.

The Bell Jar
by Sylvia Plath
$.99
Buy Now
Modern Fiction
The Bell Jar is Sylvia Plath's only novel, originally
published under the pseudonym "Victoria Lucas" in 1963.
The novel is semi-autobiographical with the names of
places and people changed. Plath committed suicide a
month after its first UK publication. The novel was
published under Plath's name for the first time in 1967 and
was not published in the United States until 1971,
pursuant to the wishes of Plath's mother and her husband
Ted Hughes.
The main character is Esther Greenwood, a young woman
from the Boston suburbs, who has a summer internship at
a prominent magazine in New York City. Her experiences
in the city and at the magazine frighten and disorient her.
She has a benefactress in Philomena Guinea, a formerly
successful fiction writer who will, later during Esther's
hospitalization, pay for some of her treatments.
Esther describes in detail several seriocomic incidents
during her internship and reminisces about her friend
Buddy, whom she has dated more or less seriously and
who considers himself her de facto fiancé. When she
returns to her home she is in low spirits and despondent.
Life is not going as she had imagined.
Esther's mental state worsens. She describes her
depression as a feeling of being trapped under a bell jar,
struggling for breath. She makes several half-hearted
attempts at suicide. She survives and is sent to several
mental hospitals. She tells her therapist how she envies
the freedom that men have, but as a woman, worries
about getting pregnant. When she is given a diaphragm
she feels free from her fears about the consequences of
sex. The novel ends with her entering the room for her
interview which will decide whether she can leave the
hospital.

Science Fiction
Three novellas by Silverberg in mid-career. Two of the
stories concern how mankind deals with the subject of
death, while the third has man's relation to religion and
God as its central theme.
The title story takes place in a futuristic world when the
process of reanimating the recently deceased has been
perfected. These "Deads" live separately in their own
communes (Cold Towns), apart from the "Warms," and
have their own customs and society. The main character is
now stalking his reanimated wife with the hope of a
reunion. This story won a Nebula Award.
In the second story God has chosen to reveal himself,
effects a miracle, but this only leads to human misery as
the organized religions become suspicious of God's
motives.
The third story takes place in 2095 when medicine has
extended life to age 150 and beyond. But it is a civic duty
to “Go” at the proper time to make way for newborns. The
main character goes through the preparation for “Going.”

Tsukuru, a train station engineer, reexamines his past

four friends from high school. The group suddenly
alienated Tsukuru under mysterious circumstances when
he was in college. For months after the break, not knowing
what had gone wrong, he became obsessed with death and
slowly lost his sense of self. Now, feeling his life will only
progress if he can tie up those emotional loose ends,
Tsukuru journeys through Japan and Europe to meet with
the members of the group and unravel what really
happened 16 years before. The result is a vintage
Murakami struggle of coming to terms with buried
emotions and missed opportunities, in which intentions and
pent up desires can seemingly transcend time and space to
bring both solace and desolation.

A Confederacy of Dunces

Modern Fiction
A Pulitzer Prize winner, this book is now considered a
canonical work of modern literature of the Southern United
States.
The central character, Ignatius J. Reilly, is an educated but
slothful 30-year-old man living with his mother in the
early-1960s New Orleans who, in his quest for
employment, has various adventures with colorful French
Quarter characters. He is something of a modern Don
Quixote—eccentric, idealistic, and creative, sometimes to
the point of delusion. He disdains modernity, particularly
pop culture. The disdain becomes his obsession: however
he also enjoys many modern comforts and conveniences,
and is given to claiming that the rednecks of rural
Louisiana hate all modern technology which they associate
with progress. Ignatius believes that he does not belong in
the world and that his numerous failings are the work of
some higher power. He loves to eat, and his masturbatory
fantasies lead in strange directions. Although considering
himself to have an expansive and learned worldview,
Ignatius has an aversion to ever leaving the town of his
birth.

Assistant district attorney Andy Barber, his wife, Laurie,
and their teenage son, Jacob, are live in a middle class
suburb when one of Jacob's classmates is stabbed to
death. Soon Jacob is the prime suspect and the Barbers
have to confront the possibility that the child they have
doted from birth may be a sociopathic killer.
Andy takes leave from his job and helps defend his son. Is
he engaging in self-deception? How far will he go to
protect his family? Laurie wonders if something she did as
a parent has created a monster and her guilt destroys her.
And then there is Jacob. Is he a typical angst filled
teenager or a psychopathic monster? The author keeps the
reader guessing about Jacob's culpability and true nature
up to the shocking final chapters.

Modern Fiction
Three stories by three authors in one book all connected
by a magic mirror.
Christmas Past by Iris Johansen
1893. Kevin Delaney learns about a long-forgotten mirror
in the attic of his home, Killara. It is no ordinary mirror
Delaney is no ordinary man. While he doesn’t believe in
mystical relics and fortune-telling, there’s no doubt that a
kind of magic is at work on his heart—just in time for
Christmas.
Christmas Present by Fayrene Preston
True love remains elusive for Bria Delaney. But when she
joins her parents at Killara for the holidays, she discovers
the mirror that reveals more than her reflection. Appearing
in the glass is a startlingly handsome man who just as
mysteriously disappears—until she meets him in person
that very night.
Christmas Future by Kay Hooper
A vision in the Delaney mirror drove Brett Delaney to the
other side of the world years before. Now his father’s
death brings him part of his inheritance: the mirror—and
the unbearable prophesy it offers sends him home to
Killara this Christmas, determined to save the home he
loves and the woman he’s always loved.
Warning: there are some very explicit sex scenes in the
books.

Cities, countries and continents are being inundated under
a global flood. Four political hostages are freed in
Barcelona in 2016, and their stories through the years

ocean levels wipe out major cities. USAF Capt. Lily Brooke
works with billionaire Nathan Lammockson to build a
haven, while oceanographer Thandie Jones attempts to

“Jews With Swords.” The setting is the Tenth Century

They are taken on as bodyguards to a sullen young prince,
Filaq. Unfortunately, the fortress they're heading for has
been destroyed, and a gang of hired thugs kidnap Filaq.
For no reason they can explain, Amram and Zelikman find
themselves racing to rescue the kid, and beginning a quest
full of checkered pasts, civil wars, ancient elephants... and
the discovery that Filaq isn't quite who he seems to be.

Classic Fiction
A Pulitzer winner has written another classic.
Rev. John Ames gives a review of his life and that of his
father and grandfather in a letter to his six-year-old son.
Ames is 77 years old in 1956, in failing health, with a
much younger wife and six-year-old son; as a preacher in
the small Iowa town where he spent his entire life, he has
produced volumes and volumes of sermons and prayers,
"[t]rying to say what was true."
Ames details the often harsh conditions of perishing
Midwestern prairie towns, the Spanish influenza and two
world wars. He relates the death of his first wife and child,
and his long years alone attempting to live up to the
legacy of his fiery grandfather, a Kansas abolitionist and
his pacifist father. While doing the writing, he is forced to
confront his personal resentment of a son of his best
friend, named after him. He must comprehend and forgive
himself in order to be reconciled with his namesake. There
is no simple redemption here; despite the meditations on
faith, even readers with no religious inclinations will be
captivated.

Short Stories
Called “a master of the form,” Baxter has crafted 23 short
stories that appear in this volume.
The title story is deservedly a classic, and other favorites,
such as "Fenstad's Mother," have gathered resonance as
well. In each, the acutely observed real world is rocked by
the exotic or surreal. In "Poor Devil," the "devils" are a
self-destructive couple headed for a divorce; in "Ghosts," a
stranger enters a young woman's house and tells her they
are soul mates. She accuses him of being a devil, but his
intentions are much less sinister than she imagines.
"Nightfall had always brought his devils out," the narrator
says in "The Old Murderer," a touching story about an
alcoholic and an ex-con, each trying to get through the
day. In "Royal Blue," an undertow of mystery shadows a
handsome young art dealer who understands that 9/11
has affected a fundamental change in his life.

He hasn't been completely honest with the police and as

appears against him. He maintains his innocence.
The story is told from alternating points of view between

Considered by many to be not only the greatest love story

leads a pleasant life before the war, but as the novel and
the war goes on her world is turned upside down, and all

and returns home to find that everything has changed.
Through all of this, Scarlett believes she loves Ashley
Wilkes, a boy from her childhood, brought up to be the
epitome of 'good breeding'. She also has to deal with
Melanie Wilkes, Ashley's wife, because in her despair,
Scarlett rashly agreed to marry Melanie's brother, Charles.
However, Scarlett's third husband, Rhett Butler, is the one
she actually loves, although she doesn't know it.
Scarlett go of all her proper teachings to stay alive and
support her family and relatives. She ends up not caring

of it tomorrow". Eventually she finds that Rhett"doesn't
give a damn" anymore, but Scarlett's strong personality
keeps her from breaking, and the novels ends with her
words, "tomorrow is another day."

Go Tell it on the Mountain
by James Baldwin

Historical Fiction

Classic Fiction
Published in 1953 when Baldwin was nearly 30, this is not
a long book, and its action spans but a single day. Yet it
has been proclaimed one of the most important books of
the 20th century.
It uses as a frame the spiritual and moral awakening of
14-year-old John Grimes during a Saturday night service in
a Harlem storefront church. Baldwin describes the secrets
of a tormented black family during the depression. John's
parents, praying beside him, both wrestle with the ghosts
of their sinful past.
Baldwin lays down the terrible symmetries of these two
blighted lives as the ironic context for John's dark night of
the soul. When day dawns, John believes himself saved,
but his creator makes it clear that this salvation arises as
much from blindness as revelation: "He was filled with a
joy, a joy unspeakable, whose roots, though he would not
trace them on this new day of his life, were nourished by
the wellspring of a despair not yet discovered."
Baldwin dramatizes the story of the great black migration
from rural South to urban North. "Behind them was the
darkness," Baldwin writes of Gabriel and Elizabeth's lost
generation, "nothing but the darkness, and all around
them destruction, and before them nothing but the fire--a
bastard people, far from God, singing and crying in the
wilderness!"

Heir to the Glimmering World

Modern Fiction
In 1933, the Mitwissers, a family of German Jews, after
fleeing Berlin, land somewhat haphazardly in New York.
They place an ad for help in a local paper. Rose Meadows,
who narrates the story, is hired and observes the family
with the neutrality of an invisible servant. Her duties are
vaguely defined—part nanny, part secretary—and her
salary comes intermittently. Ozick portrays this household
to dazzling effect, as it adjusts to its many states of
exile—from a sense of security, from cherished ideas, and
from the consolations of each other. Ozick paints a
textured portrait of outsiders rendered powerless,
retreating into tightly coiled existences of scholarly
rapture, guarded brazenness and even calculated
lunacy—all as a means of refuting the bleakness of a
harsh, chaotic world.

Mystery
The hero, Nat Idle is a young medical journalist in San
Francisco. He still morns the death of Annie, a girlfriend
who died in a drowning accident four years ago. While
sitting in a cafe a woman drops a note on his table telling
him to get out and shortly afterward the cafe explodes
killing five people. The note is in Annie's handwriting.
There are romantic interludes, dangerous house fires,
mysteriously encrypted computer programs and Nat's
acupuncture session with Samantha, a New Age healer,
that is interrupted by rogue cops looking for a laptop. Then
Nat picks up the phone and hears Annie's voice; evidently
she'd faked her death to avoid SEC and IRS bloodhounds.
The rest of the novel has Nat realizing, after encountering
her in the flesh, that Annie's much harder than he'd
thought.

The chief character in this novel is a rogue shark that
terrorizes a beach community. The Chief human character
police chief Martin Brody, is virtually the lone voice of
reason in a town filled with people who want to downplay
the shark’s presence so that tourists will not be scared
away. When the body count starts to rise, it’s Brody who
has to find a way to kill the beast, even if it means putting
his own life on the line. The characters—Brody,
oceanographer Matt Hooper, shark-hunter Quint—are not
as likable as they are in the film adaptation. Those who are
familiar with the movie, but not the book, are in for some
surprises, and those who read the book way back when
should definitely give it another look.

He was a counterculture rebel who became a billionaire.
The author was granted a great deal of access to Jobs and
a great deal of information is contained in this book. The
book covers an immense number of different "phases" of
Job’s life from his adoption story to the start of Apple
Computer, to NeXt, Pixar, love life, development of his
iconic products, to the time before his death. It is
ruthlessly objective with descriptions of Jobs's conduct with
strangers, his management team, other CEO's, etc. It is
very clear Jobs often had a lack of sensitivity towards
others.
The book also provides a historical perspective of his time.
Much is written about the history of Silicon Valley, other
famous CEOs, musicians, artists, politicians. Included are
stories about , John Sculley, President Clinton, Obama, Bill
Gates, Jeffrey Katzenberg (Disney), Michael Eisner
(Disney), Bob Iger (Disney), Bono, Joan Baez, Bob Dylan,
Yoko Ono, Steve Wozniak, Larry Ellison (Oracle), Eric
Schmidt (Google), Larry Page (Google), etc.

and various decisions he made. But there is also very
revealing information about his personal life.

Olive Kitteride is a retired schoolteacher living in a small

times perceptive, at other times in sad denial, Olive
deplores the changes in her little town and in the world at
large, but she doesn’t always recognize the changes in
those around her: a former student who has lost the will to
live; Olive’s own adult child, who feels tyrannized by her
irrational sensitivities; and her husband, Henry, who finds
his loyalty to his marriage both a blessing and a curse. As
time goes on, Olive is brought to a deeper understanding
of herself and her life – sometimes painfully, but always
with ruthless honesty. This is just great writing and earned

A winner of the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.
Henry Townsend is a black farmer, bootmaker, and former
slave; William Robbins, perhaps the most powerful man in
antebellum Virginia's Manchester County becomes Henry’s
tutor. Henry becomes proprietor of his own plantation -- as
well as of his own slaves. When he dies, his widow,
succumbs to profound grief, and things begin to fall apart
at their plantation: slaves take to escaping under the cover
of night, and families who had once found love beneath the
weight of slavery begin to betray one another. Beyond the
Townsend estate, the known world also unravels: low-paid
white patrollers stand watch as slave "speculators" sell free
black people into slavery, and rumors of slave rebellions
set white families against slaves who have served them for
years.
The Known World weaves together the lives of freed and
enslaved blacks, whites, and Indians. It gives a deeper
understanding of the enduring multidimensional world
created by the institution of slavery.

without ever quite understanding each other's deepest

Lonesome Dove takes us from the Rio Grande to the

Vintage Binchy. When a young alcoholic in Dublin learns
he has fathered a child with a dying woman, he must step
into the role of father, protector, and provider to his infant
daughter, Frankie, in a matter of weeks. He is helped by a
cast of colorfully eccentric characters. Determined to
succeed, though totally unprepared for his new
responsibilities, Noel gets an essential assist from his
visiting American cousin. Exercising her tremendous gifts
of organization and insight. As everybody begins to mind
Frankie, a suspicious social worker pokes her nose in
where it doesn’t belong, attempting to dredge up any dirt
she can on Noel and his slightly unorthodox network of
babysitters. One reviewer said “Readers will need a box of
tissues handy as the good-hearted residents of St.
Jarlath’s Crescent prove that it does indeed take a village
to raise a child.”

A Jack Reacher novel.
Reacher travels from South Dakota to northeastern
Virginia, near Washington, D.C.: the headquarters of his
old unit, the 110th MP. It’s the closest thing to a home he
ever had.
Reacher is there to the new commanding officer, Major
Susan Turner. But Turner isn’t there and Reacher has two
pieces of shocking news, one with serious criminal
consequences, and one too personal to even think about.
Reacher fights to find Turner and clear his name, barely a
step ahead of the army, and the FBI, and the D.C. Metro
police, and four unidentified thugs.

The 19th Jack Reacher novel.
A sniper threatens the coming international conference, to
be held outside London. Protected by a glass shield, the
French president escapes unharmed when someone fires a
shot at him while he's delivering an outdoor address in
Paris. One of only four people in the world could have fired
the 50-calibre bullet with such accuracy from a distance of
1,400 yards. One is John Kott, a former Special Forces
soldier, who was recently released from prison, where
Reacher helped put him 15 years earlier.
Gen. Tom O'Day, recruits the former M.P. to look into the
matter. Reacher tangles with gangsters en route to trying
to stop the sniper from striking again. Reacher's keen
analytic mind in action will entertain readers as much as
the assorted physical means he uses to take down the bad
guys.

Harry has just returned to Hogwarts for his fifth year after a
lonely summer. Dumbledore is uncommunicative and most of
the students seem to think Harry is either conceited or crazy
for insisting that Voldemort is back and as evil as ever. Angry
and scared, Harry lashes out at friends and enemies alike.
Additionally, a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher and
High Inquisitor of the school is appointed. Harry is certain that
Voldemort is becoming more powerful. The adults all seem
evil, misguided, or simply powerless, so the students must
take matters into their own hands. Harry's confusion about his
godfather and father, and his apparent rejection by
Dumbledore make him question his own motives and the
condition of his soul. The power of this book comes from the
young magician's struggles with his emotions and identity.

very unwisely given control of the family business which is
finally lost. He manages to take some comfort in Judy, who
has turned out to be beautiful and attractive.,
While recuperating from heart surgery, Harry recognizes
one of the nurses, as the young woman he believes is his
illegitimate daughter by his old girlfriend Ruth. Around this
time, his long-term mistress dies of lupus.
The family learns that Harry has had a one-night stand with
his son’s wife. All of this lead Harry to escape to Florida
where he has another heart attack shortly after winning a

Satan in Goray

Historical Fiction

Philosophy/Religion
The setting is a remote town somewhere in Poland some
years after the last massacres of Jews in the 1640's. A
feeble-minded young woman by the name of Rechelle,
personifies the forces of evil (messianism) taking root
amongst the population and leading to the downfall of its
members, bringing total chaos. There is an epic struggle
between the forces of evil and good, of reason and
emotion, of traditional conservative Judaism and
messianism.
The Jews of Poland believe that, as Christian would say, the
End Times are here, and expect the messiah to arrive.
Shabbati Shevi appears on the scene, claiming to be the
messiah. Many Jews fall under his sway, but the Rabbi of
Goray resists and this further wracks the town. Rechelle
becomes the center of attraction because she is unmarried.
When a holy man arrives in Goray, he marries the
unfortuate Rechele, who proceeds to be possessed by
Satan.

THE SECRET PLACE

Mystery
Tana French's latest Dublin Murder Squad mystery unfolds
in a single day.
Chapters alternate between two different time frames and
points of view. One strand concerns four girls at an
exclusive school who are so close they vow they won't even
have boyfriends. Four other girls from the school are their
arch-rivals, more conventional and socially active. The
novel pits the girls against each other almost as two gangs.
The plot pivots on the death of a boy from a nearby school
who had been sneaking out to see at least two of the girls.
The second strand features the two detectives who spend a
long day and night at the school, many months after the
unsolved murder. Narrating these chapters is Stephen, a
detective assigned to cold cases, who receives an
unexpected visit from one of the girls, who brings a
postcard she'd found on a bulletin board that says "I know
who killed him."

The heroine of the story, Alma Whittaker, is the daughter
of a man who mad a fortune importing plants. She lives in
the mid 1800s confined for most of her life to her family
estate in Philadelphia. She yearns for a life of greater
passion and liberty and channels her desires into botany,
thrilling to the miniature universe of moss in the forests.
When she finally turns herself loose on the world, it’s to
claim her place in a lineage of explorers.
Eventually -- after trials and explorations that take her to
the far side of the world -- she even anticipates one of the
greatest scientific theories of the age, though the triumph
remains almost entirely personal. She is also not lucky in
love -- she fancies her research partner, but he ends up
married to her bimbo best friend. She but this is a sexless
marriage.
Eventually Alma finds her way to Amsterdam and becomes
master of mosses at the Botanical Garden. Two men then
enter her life -Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace.
Upon striking up a friendship with Wallace, Alma looks back
on her life. "Darwin would belong to history, yes, but Alma
had Wallace.... Then, Wallace too, would be gone. But for
now, at least he was aware of her. She was known." In the
end, Alma finds happiness doing what she has always loved
-- not with a romantic partner -- but as part of a far-flung
community of intellectual equals.

Pat tries to make peace with all those around him, goes to
sessions with a therapist and make himself worthy to be
reunited with his beloved ex-wife. Then he is introduced to
a beautiful but equally messed up widow named Tiffany.
Pat's life takes a sudden and dramatic turn that leads to
discoveries of promise, betrayal, sorrow, despair, possible
set-back and finally, hope and love.
The story is set against the backdrop of a typical

The Testament of Mary
by Colm Toiben
$2.99
Historical Fiction
Buy Now
Philosophy/Religion
An untraditional version of the suffering of the mother of a
boy named Jesus.
This is the story told by a lonely older woman still seeking
to understand the events that become the narrative of the
New Testament and the foundation of Christianity.
Mary lives alone, years after her son's crucifixion. She has
no interest in collaborating with the authors of the
Gospel—her keepers, who provide her with food and shelter
and visit her regularly. She does not agree that her son is
the Son of God; nor that his death was “worth it;” nor that
the “group of misfits he gathered around him, men who
could not look a woman in the eye,” were holy disciples.
Mary judges herself ruthlessly (she did not stay at the foot
of the Cross until her son died—she fled, to save herself),
and is equally harsh on her judgment of others. This
woman who we know from centuries of paintings and
scripture as the docile, loving, silent, long-suffering,
obedient, worshipful mother of Christ becomes, a tragic
heroine with the relentless eloquence of Electra or Medea
or Antigone. This tour de force of imagination and language
is a portrait so vivid and convincing that our image of Mary
will be forever transformed.

One reviewer said: “Michelle Moran has written a deft mix
of historical accuracy and engaging fiction.” It is more
historical than fiction.
The year is 1788, and the French Revolution is about to
begin…Marie Tussaud has learned the secrets of wax
sculpting by working alongside her uncle in their celebrated
wax museum. Marie's museum provides Parisians with the
very latest news on fashion, gossip, even politics. Her
customers hail from every walk of life, and when word
arrives that the royals themselves are coming to see their
likenesses, Marie never dreams that the king's sister will
request her presence at Versailles as a royal tutor in wax
sculpting. As Marie becomes acquainted with her pupil,
Princess Élisabeth, she is taken to meet both Marie
Antoinette and King Louis XVI, who introduce her to the
glamorous life at court. From lavish parties with more
delicacies than she's ever seen, Marie steps into a world
entirely different from her own where people are selling
their teeth to put food on the table. Meanwhile, many
resent the vast separation between rich and poor. In salons
and cafes across Paris, people like Camille Desmoulins,
Jean-Paul Marat, and Maximilien Robespierre are lashing
out against the monarchy. There's whispered talk of
revolution. Will Marie be able to hold on to both the love of
her life and her friendship with the royal family as France
approaches civil war?
Spanning five years from the budding revolution to the
Reign of Terror, Madame Tussaud brings us into the world
of an incredible heroine whose talent for wax modeling
saved her life and preserved the faces of a vanished
kingdom.

Mystery
This is a sequel to Fever Dream and Cold Vengeance. It
features a darker side to Aloysius Pendergast. He is
transported from a suicidal depression after the abduction
of his wife to an all encompassing obsession for revenge
which powers nearly superhuman feats that would make
James Bond proud.
Several threads run through the story. One involves the
background of his ward, Constance Greene, currently
residing in an institution for the criminally insane. Another
involves Corrie Swanson, the young Goth in hiding and her
quest to prove her father’s innocence on a bank robbery
charge. The plot takes several unexpected twists and turns
which serve to introduce a new ward who can be expected
to continue under Pendergast’s care and a new villain which
will undoubtedly resurface in the future.
When a string of bizarre murders erupts across several
Manhattan hotels, NYPD Lieutenant D'Agosta asks his friend
Pendergast for help. Reluctant at first, Pendergast soon
discovers that the killings are a message from his wife's
kidnappers. When the kidnappers strike again at those
closest to Pendergast, he sets out to track down and
destroy those responsible. His journey takes him deep into
the trackless forests of South America and with potentially
world-altering consequences.

Humor
Stoneybridge is a small town on the west coast of Ireland.
When Chicky Starr decides to take an old, decaying
mansion and turn it into a restful place for a holiday,
everyone thinks she is crazy.
The story takes place around an unlikely cast of characters:
Rigger, a bad boy turned good who is handy around the
house and Orla, her niece, a whiz at business. When Chicky
welcomes her guests they are: John, the American movie
star, who thinks he has arrived incognito; Winnie and Lillian
who are forced into taking a holiday together; Nicola and
Henry, husband and wife, who have been shaken by seeing
too much death practicing medicine; Anders who hates his
father’s business, but has a real talent for music; Miss Nell
Howe, a retired schoolteacher who criticizes everything and
leaves a day early; the Walls who are disappointed to have
won this second-prize holiday in a contest where first prize
was Paris; and Freda, the librarian, who is afraid of her own
psychic visions.
This is Binchy’s last book, published posthumously, and one
very, very, enjoyable story.

Wild Swans
by Jung Chan
$3.99
Biography
Buy Now
Non Fiction
A bestselling classic in thirty languages. It is the story of
three generations in twentieth-century China, written by a
granddaughter daughter. It is an engrossing record of
Mao's impact on China, an unusual window on the female
experience in the modern world, and an inspiring tale of
courage and love.
Jung Chang describes the life of her grandmother, a
warlord's concubine; her mother's struggles as a young
idealistic Communist; and her parents' experience as
members of the Communist elite and their ordeal during
the Cultural Revolution. Chang was a Red Guard briefly at
the age of fourteen, then worked as a peasant, a "barefoot
doctor," a steelworker, and an electrician.
This is history from 1911 to 1976, but it is not a textbook.
You will never feel as though you just entered a lecture hall
and are sitting through a journalistic or pedantic analysis of
these turbulent times. The book takes us from the end of
Imperial China, through Japanese occupation, the
Nationalist movement, the Civil War between the
Kuomintang and the Communists, Communist takeover,
Mao's Great Leap Forward starving tens of millions to
death, the Cultural Revolution turning a national identity
upon it's head and breaking it's collective spirit in the
process, to Mao Zedong's death, you will be amazed at
what you learn in this book about the capacity of the heart
to perservere and triumph.

The World According to Garp
by John Irving
$.99
Buy Now
Classic Fiction
Millions have already read this modern classic.
The story is about the life of T. S. Garp who was born as
the result of artificial insemination organized by his mother.
She raises young Garp alone, taking a position at the
all-boys school Steering School in New England.
Garp grows up, becoming interested in sex, wrestling, and
writing fiction—three topics in which his mother has little
interest. After his graduation in 1961, his mother takes him
to Vienna where he writes his first novella. At the same
time, his mother begins writing her autobiography, A
Sexual Suspect. After they return to the school Garp
marries Helen, the wrestling coach's daughter and founds
his family, he a struggling writer, she a teacher of English.
The publication of her autobiography makes his mother
famous. She becomes a feminist icon. Feminists view her
book as a manifesto of a woman who does not care to bind
herself to a man, and who chooses to raise a child on her
own.
Garp becomes a devoted parent, wrestling with anxiety for
the safety of his children and a desire to keep them safe
from the dangers of the world. He and his family inevitably
experience dark and violent events through which the
characters change and grow. Garp learns, often painfully,
from the women in his life who are struggling to become
more tolerant in the face of intolerance. The story is
decidedly rich with (in the words of Garp's teacher) "lunacy
and sorrow," and the sometimes ridiculous chains of events
the characters experience still resonate with painful truth.
The novel contains several sub-stories: Garp's first novella;
a short story; and the first chapter of his novel, The World
According to Bensenhaver. The book also contains some
motifs that appear in almost all John Irving novels: bears,
wrestling, Vienna, New England, people who are
uninterested in having sex, and a complex Dickensian plot
that spans the protagonist's whole life. Adultery also plays
a large part, culminating in one of the novel's most
harrowing and memorable scenes.
