In the summer of 1976, three exceptionally different sisters begin walking their individual paths. Schmellda, the eldest daughter, launches into her personal tale of family and self-discovery. Setting out on her own for the first time in her life, she remains a frumpy self-appointed mother hen to her younger sisters. Sorina is her stunning and stuttering middle sibling, venturing out slowly in search of her dreams. The youngest, Esmerelda, is an outspoken, non-filtered, sharp-tongued fireball ready to fly from the nest. Their parents have provided a safely nurtured life for the three. It is in this happy environment that an unimaginable spiral of events begins that will change all their lives forever. The girls compete, take road trips, and go to camp. They get makeovers, follow their hearts, and fall in love. Over the months, the sisters cross paths and wits with each other and encounter a menagerie of misfits, loners, losers, and dreamers, marking an adventure like no other. Their wry humor, hopes, and fledging philosophies take them, and you, to places never imagined.

Siblings Ismael, Rosie and Cristina are deaf, and so are many in their Maya village. The deaf and hearing alike communicate in sign language, forming a tightly-knit community with an unsophisticated, simple lifestyle. But when Ismael gets into a fight at the local fiesta and flees the village, leaving Rosie and Cristina to fend for themselves, the daily rhythms of village life are disrupted, and all that they trust in comes under threat. Ismael and His Sisters is a remarkable debut novel from the acclaimed author of Chattering. It conjures up a world set apart, made visceral through its concentrated language, where sign language bridges exterior and interior worlds and gives a physical shape to the way we experience the world. It explores the interplay between the powerful forces within us and the dark elemental forces beyond our control, exposing the 'bottomless, hostile ocean' in which we all flounder. This is an extraordinary novel about the power of familial bonds, the barriers we build out of language, the dark elemental forces that threaten to overwhelm us, and above all, what it is like to be human.

Floating down from the pure blue sky, the one man in the world she hoped never to see again--the one who'd been her archnemesis from kindergarten through her senior dance--parachutes into town, landing on Boon Dock, canopy draping behind him like a superhero.

The second novel from the best-selling Argentine author of The Anatomist, The Merciful Women is a brilliant retelling of the birth of the Gothic novel. In the summer of 1816, Percy and Mary Shelley, Mary's sister, and Lord Byron hid themselves away in a Swiss villa, whiling away rainy afternoons with the Gothic novel contest that would produce Frankenstein. Andahazi's reimagining focuses on the fifth competitor: John Polidori, Byron's manservant, a talentless hack resentful of the ease of his master's life. Through a Faustian pact with an unseen intercessant, Polidori obtains the most compelling vampire story ever written. But The Vampyre has striking similarities to Polidori's benefactor and to what she asks of him in return. Opium, erotica, and decadence meld into a sly and stylish novel about literary ambition, talent, and inspiration. A hoot ... a Voltaire-like skewering of the myth of genius. Andahazi can remind you of vintage Terry Southern. -- Richard Wallace, The Seattle Times Playful, satiric, erotic, sometimes savage, sometimes slapstick ... something completely different, and well worth reading. -- San Francisco Chronicle As a piece of mock-scholarly, wickedly ironic entertainment, it is an utter delight. -- Publishers Weekly This literary tour de force cum vampire tale will leave the reader gasping-from laughter and horror by turns. -- The Baltimore Sun

This story is not intended to demonize one side and glorify another, nor is it to romanticize death, for death is not romantic to those who stand face-to-face with it. It will simply try to tell of a generation of civilians caught in the middle of a war that lies just right outside their front door. Even though they may have escaped from the shells falling from above, they were devastated by it. Volume one of The Book of Gideon is told through the eyes of a French-farming family trying their best to survive the very beginnings of the Great War.

Kamala Narasimha is well known, bold and free thinking novelist in Kannada. The opinion that we think of truths would fan out as their inner and outer faces. Truth is not seen symbolically. But Kamala is spunky woman, who has ventured to write about such things. A bold writer in kannada has confidence to magnify the life through her experience. It is her experience, honesty and the proper use of language that Kamalanarasimha, who has chosen the path of the novel for her spunky, courageous and intelligent expression, stands out. It was in her first novel Bhoogarbha that she unraveled the rural cosmos. The tension and conflicts that unfold in the context of the interior being exposed and the attitude of the novelist of exposing mysteries at every step are symptomatic of the solidity of the novelist. The essence of the novel is the success of the unfettered expression of the face-to-face interaction of the politician and the literatteur. This novel takes its firm place as an importance piece because of this. The complete magnification and direction of solidity of novel lies in her bold expression. The author has woven a story that does not endorse caste as a matter of course, which is what makes it art and which should interest readers. The crux is the protagonist-yielding breath after getting to know the truth.
