“One of the most extraordinary, original—and funniest—books I have ever read. Subversive, satirical, like a farcical, erotic, animal-human animated film” (Jonathan Gathorne-Hardy, author of Kinsey: Sex the Measure of All Things). Shining moments of tender beauty punctuate this story of a youth on the run after escaping from an elite English boarding school. At London’s Euston Station, the narrator meets a talking dachshund named Mary and together they’re off on escapades through posh Mayfair streets and jaunts in a Rolls-Royce. But the youth soon realizes the seemingly sweet dog is a handful; an alcoholic, nymphomaniac, drug-addicted mess who can’t stay out of pubs or off the dance floor. In a world of abusive headmasters and other predators, the sexually omnivorous youth discovers that true friends are never needed more than on the mean streets of 1960s London, as he tries to save his beloved Mary from herself. On the Run with Mary mirrors the horrors and the joys of the terrible twentieth century. Jonathan Barrow’s original drawings accompany the text. “A masterpiece by a young genius, fated to die shortly after he had completed it.” —A. N. Wilson, author of Prince Albert: The Man Who Saved the Monarchy “A unique masterpiece from a bizarre mind. To say it’s Lewis Carroll meets Jean Genet . . . would be to belittle its farcically-filthy originality.” —Nicholas Haslam, author of Redeeming Features “Dementedly cheerful . . . A rollicking catalogue of sex, violence, and acts of cartoonish cruelty, Barrow’s novel is a schoolboy’s happy nightmare writ large; readers may find it impossible to look away.” —Publishers Weekly

"When a man is denied the right to live the life be believes in, he has no choice but to become an outlaw." Mary On The Run is 395,000-words three-volume YA fiction, it tells the story of a 20-year-old Chinese guy who's struggling to survive in the Chinese society, in hopes of finding love and freedom, and eventually becomes an outcast and goes to Afghanistan to join the U.S Army, yet the death of the girl who's saved him from the riots of Urumqi drives him back to Beijing to assassinate the head of the Chinese government. Mary On The Run is written in a subjective style from the point of view of its antagonist Mary, following his exact thought processes. The story is presented in a nonlinear narrative, as it jumps from various days within the 10-years span of Mary's life, each flashback is triggered by the previous event. It all starts at the moment when Mary is about to assassinate the Chinese Premier at the Great Hall of the People (Beijing) in June 6, 2011. Going to the Afghanistan look for the U.S Army is not a whim. As one of the outcasts of China, that seems to be the only choice left for Mary to choose--die of a noble cause, or survive to be a great fighter. Mary has never read any book of Hemingway, nor does he have any understanding of the world outside of a little town. He simply wants to be a stronger man, like one of the heroes of those American movies. His careless thoughts and actions make him a witness of the riots of Urumqi and the subsequent massacre, yet seeing the genuine act of violence hasn't taught him a lesson, for he still swears he will avenge his savior Alice's death and rebel against the Chinese government. The saying "time heals all wounds" does not apply in his case, as he has never been able to get over the loss of the people he loves. One year later, a mysterious woman named Liz appears, and it is just her, who finally brings Mary's life toward another direction... There is nothing funny about the story, since it is philosophical and educative. Themes of angst, alienation, materialism, inhumanity, the longing for belief and meaning in life are reflected in the novel. Yet the narrative is miserably amusing for its ironic mix of humor, eclectic dialogue, and you will always be eager to know what's going to happen next. Although each storyline focus on a different series of incidents, they connect and interact in various ways. The story not only deals with complex issues of identity, belonging, connection, and alienation, but also has a strong political context, which involves in the abuse of power of the government, the root of terrorist attacks, the rise of the cult Falun gong. Mary On The Run is a novel on a epic scale, moving inexorably from the decay of the Chinese society to the desperation of the lower class. In this book, the narrator reveals a panorama of modern Chinese by depicting more than a hundred characters, each character symbolizes a type of person. This is an encyclopedia for teens and young adults in the course of maturation, provides you with an overview of human society at present times.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the author of Wilde in Love, a joyful chronicle of a year in one of the most beautiful cities in the world: Paris. “What a beautiful and delightful tasting menu of a book: the kids, the plump little dog, the Italian husband. Reading this memoir was like wandering through a Parisian patisserie in a dream. I absolutely loved it.”—Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love When bestselling romance author Eloisa James took a sabbatical from her day job as a Shakespeare professor, she also took a leap that many people dream about: She sold her house and moved her family to Paris. With no classes to teach, no committee meetings to attend, no lawn to mow or cars to park, Eloisa revels in the ordinary pleasures of life—discovering corner museums that tourists overlook, chronicling Frenchwomen’s sartorial triumphs, walking from one end of Paris to another. She copes with her Italian husband’s notions of quality time; her two hilarious children, ages eleven and fifteen, as they navigate schools—not to mention puberty—in a foreign language; and her mother-in-law Marina’s raised eyebrow in the kitchen (even as Marina overfeeds Milo, the family dog). Paris in Love invites the reader into the life of a New York Times bestselling author and her spirited, enchanting family, framed by la ville de l’amour. Praise for Paris in Love “Exhilarating and enchanting . . . brims with a casual wisdom about life.”—Chicago Tribune “In this delightful charm-bracelet of a memoir, [Eloisa James shares] her adventures as an American suddenly immersed in all things French—food, clothes, joie de vivre.”—People “Enchanting . . . gives the reader a sense of being immersed along with James in Paris for a year . . . you see the rain, taste the food, observe the people.”—USA Today “This delectable confection, which includes recipes, is more than a visit to a glorious city: it is also a tour of a family, a marriage, and a love that has no borders. Très magnifique!”—Library Journal (starred review) “A charming, funny and poignant memoir . . . steeped in Paris and suffused with love.”—Star Tribune “Charming . . . a romance—for a city, a life, a family, and love itself.”—The Huffington Post

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the author of The Martian, a lone astronaut must save the earth from disaster in this “propulsive” (Entertainment Weekly), cinematic thriller full of suspense, humor, and fascinating science—in development as a major motion picture starring Ryan Gosling. HUGO AWARD FINALIST • ONE OF THE YEAR’S BEST BOOKS: Bill Gates, GatesNotes, New York Public Library, Parade, Newsweek, Polygon, Shelf Awareness, She Reads, Kirkus Reviews, Library Journal • “An epic story of redemption, discovery and cool speculative sci-fi.”—USA Today “If you loved The Martian, you’ll go crazy for Weir’s latest.”—The Washington Post Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission—and if he fails, humanity and the earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn’t know that. He can’t even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he’s been asleep for a very, very long time. And he’s just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company. His crewmates dead, his memories fuzzily returning, Ryland realizes that an impossible task now confronts him. Hurtling through space on this tiny ship, it’s up to him to puzzle out an impossible scientific mystery—and conquer an extinction-level threat to our species. And with the clock ticking down and the nearest human being light-years away, he’s got to do it all alone. Or does he? An irresistible interstellar adventure as only Andy Weir could deliver, Project Hail Mary is a tale of discovery, speculation, and survival to rival The Martian—while taking us to places it never dreamed of going.
