Our Tragic Universe PDF
By:Scarlett Thomas
Published on 2010-09-01 by HMH

This “delightfully whimsical novel riffs on the premise that ordinary lives stubbornly resist the tidy order that a fiction narrative might impose on them” (Publishers Weekly). Can a story save your life? Meg Carpenter is broke. Her novel is years overdue. Her cell phone is out of minutes. And her moody boyfriend’s only contribution to the household is his sour attitude. So she jumps at the chance to review a pseudoscientific book that promises life everlasting. But who wants to live forever? Consulting cosmology and physics, tarot cards, koans (and riddles and jokes), new-age theories of everything, narrative theory, Nietzsche, Baudrillard, and knitting patterns, Meg wends her way through Our Tragic Universe, asking this and many other questions. Does she believe in fairies? In magic? Is she a superbeing? Is she living a storyless story? And what’s the connection between her off-hand suggestion to push a car into a river, a ship in a bottle, a mysterious beast loose on the moor, and the controversial author of The Science of Living Forever? Smart, entrancing, and boiling over with Thomas’s trademark big ideas, Our Tragic Universe is a book about how relationships are created and destroyed, how we can rewrite our futures (if not our histories), and how stories just might save our lives.

The Man with the Compound Eyes PDF
By:Wu Ming-Yi
Published on 2014-05-20 by Vintage

When a tsunami sends a massive island made entirely of trash crashing into the Taiwanese coast, two very different people—an outcast from a mythical island and a woman on the verge of suicide—are united in ways they never could have imagined. Here is the English-language debut of a new and exciting award-winning voice from Taiwan, who has written an “astonishing” novel (The Independent) that is at once fantasy, reality, and dystopian environmental saga. Fifteen-year-old Atile’i—a native of Wayo Wayo, an island somewhere in the Pacific—has come of age. Following the custom of his people, he is set adrift as a sacrifice to the Sea God but, unlike those who have gone before him, Atile’i is determined to defy precedent and survive. His chances seem slim, but just as it appears that hope is lost, Atile’i comes across a sprawling trash vortex floating in the ocean and climbs onto it. Meanwhile, on the east coast of Taiwan, Alice, a college professor, is overcome with grief. Her husband and son are missing, having disappeared while hiking in the mountains near their home. Alice is so distraught that she decides to end her own life. But her plans are interrupted by a violent storm that causes the trash vortex to collide with the Taiwanese coast, bringing Atile’i along with it. Alice and Atile’i subsequently form an unlikely friendship that helps each of them come to terms with what they have lost. Together they set out to uncover the mystery of Alice’s lost family, following their footsteps into the mountains. Intertwined with Alice and Atile’i’s story are the lives of others affected by the tsunami, from environmentalists to Taiwan’s indigenous peoples—and, of course, the mysterious man with the compound eyes. A work of lyrical beauty that combines magical realism and environmental fable, The Man with the Compound Eyes is an incredible story about the bonds of family, the meaning of love, and the lasting effects of human destruction.

The Tony Cassella Mysteries PDF
By:Larry Beinhart
Published on 2013-05-21 by Open Road Media

Three novels featuring a New York PI tangling with the SEC, the IRS, and the mob, from an Edgar Award winner who “can really write” (The New York Times Book Review). In No One Rides for Free, Tony Cassella is a private investigator whose past includes a year or so at Yale University’s law school, a stint as a corrections officer, and a cocaine addiction. Though he’s recently gotten his life back on track, Cassella is drawn to trouble, and can imagine no greater thrill than his latest case: tangling with the SEC in an investigation that leads deep into the federal government. Continuing with You Get What You Pay For and Foreign Exchange,Cassella’s unique talents land him in the crosshairs of the mob, the IRS, and a dangerous world of international intrigue. Larry Beinhart (b. 1947) is an award-winning author of mysteries, nonfiction and political essays, best known for his novel American Hero, which inspired the blockbuster film Wag the Dog. His first novel, No One Rides for Free (1986), introduced Tony Cassella, a thoroughly modern private investigator who also appeared in You Get What You Pay For (1988) and Foreign Exchange (1991). Beinhart’s next novel, American Hero (1993), told the story of an unpopular president who engineers a war to win re-election. Beinhart has also won an Emmy and a Dagger Award. He lives and writes in Woodstock, New York.

Now a major motion picture Short-listed for the Man Booker Prize A New York Times bestseller A Washington Post and San Francisco Chronicle Best Book of the Year A New York Times Notable Book “Extreme times call for extreme reactions, extreme writing. Hamid has done something extraordinary with this novel.”—Washington Post “One of those achingly assured novels that makes you happy to be a reader.”—Junot Diaz “Brief, charming, and quietly furious . . . a resounding success.”—Village Voice At a café table in Lahore, a bearded Pakistani man converses with an uneasy American stranger.

At the top of his class at Princeton, he is snapped up by an elite valuation firm.

The Secrets She Keeps PDF
By:Michael Robotham
Published on 2018-01-02 by Simon and Schuster

|Agatha is pregnant and works part-time stocking shelves at a grocery store in a ritzy London suburb, counting down the days until her baby is due. As the hours of her shifts creep by in increasing discomfort, the one thing she looks forward to at work is catching a glimpse of Meghan, the effortlessly chic customer whose elegant lifestyle dazzles her. Meghan has it all: two perfect children, a handsome husband, a happy marriage, a stylish group of friends, and she writes perfectly droll confessional posts on her popular parenting blog--posts that Agatha reads with devotion each night as she waits for her absent boyfriend, the father of her baby, to maybe return her calls. When Agatha learns that Meghan is pregnant again, and that their due dates fall within the same month, she finally musters up the courage to speak to her, thrilled that they now have the ordeal of childbearing in common. Little does Meghan know that the mundane exchange she has with a grocery store employee during a hurried afternoon shopping trip is about to change the course of her not-so-perfect life forever.|--

By:Christine Irving
Published on 2012-12-17 by Createspace Independent Pub

Twenty-five years after the crucifixion, Mary Magdalene leads a double life as Jesu's disciple and Susannah, the wealthy heir of an international import/export business in incense and perfume. But someone is watching, her two identities threaten to merge and she must flee Jerusalem. Her journey begins with voices and visions that first drag her into the past and then propel her forward, through the temples of strange gods, across deserts and seas, to experience a near death experience, an unexpected initiation and a dangerous storm at sea. Her outer journey reflects the inner as Magdalene grapples with tradition and duty to discover her heart's desire.

Lucky Boy PDF
By:Shanthi Sekaran
Published on 2017-01-10 by Penguin

A gripping tale of adventure and searing reality, Lucky Boy gives voice to two mothers bound together by their love for one lucky boy. |Sekaran has written a page-turner that’s touching and all too real.| —People “A fiercely compassionate story about the bonds and the bounds of motherhood and, ultimately, of love.”—Cristina Henríquez, author of The Book of Unknown Americans Eighteen years old and fizzing with optimism, Solimar Castro-Valdez embarks on a perilous journey across the Mexican border. Weeks later, she arrives in Berkeley, California, dazed by first love found then lost, and pregnant. This was not the plan. Undocumented and unmoored, Soli discovers that her son, Ignacio, can become her touchstone, and motherhood her identity in a world where she’s otherwise invisible. Kavya Reddy has created a beautiful life in Berkeley, but then she can’t get pregnant and that beautiful life seems suddenly empty. When Soli is placed in immigrant detention and Ignacio comes under Kavya’s care, Kavya finally gets to be the singing, story-telling kind of mother she dreamed of being. But she builds her love on a fault line, her heart wrapped around someone else’s child. “Nacho” to Soli, and “Iggy” to Kavya, the boy is steeped in love, but his destiny and that of his two mothers teeters between two worlds as Soli fights to get back to him. Lucky Boy is a moving and revelatory ode to the ever-changing borders of love.

The Faces of Strangers PDF
By:Pia Padukone
Published on 2016-04-01 by MIRA

The highly acclaimed author of Where Earth Meets Water returns with an arresting exploration of family and culture When native New Yorker Nicholas Grand applies for an international student exchange program, he thinks it's an opportunity to broaden his horizons and meet some interesting people. He never imagines that a single year would have repercussions that would follow him throughout his lifetime. Nicholas is sent to Estonia, where he meets shy, sensitive Paavo, his beautiful sister, Mari, and their gruff father, Leo—a family grappling with the challenges of life in a small country struggling to assert its post-Soviet identity. Nicholas sets off on an unforgettable journey through a foreign landscape that ultimately teaches him that some bonds can never be broken. Bridging two uniquely captivating cities, The Faces of Strangers traces the intertwined lives of two seemingly symmetrical families from extraordinarily different worlds. This compelling odyssey through friendship and self-discovery illuminates the universality of how deeply we are defined by our connections with others.

Le Fils de Klara H. PDF
By:Max Gallo
Published on 2014-04-01 by Fayard

Une jeune femme, Judith, et sa fille, Sandra, disparaissent. L'angoisse étreint ceux qui les aiment. Ils savent qu'entre Judith et son mari, le docteur Laurent, la haine a remplacé l'amour. En reconstituant les vies de Judith et de son mari, en établissant l'histoire des deux familles, Max Gallo donne à un fait divers d'aujourd'hui la force d'un symbole et la puissance d'un mythe. On voit se dresser, derrière la mère et la fille, l' | idole noire | qui a dominé le siècle, cette force inhumaine source de massacres et de guerres. Ceux qui menacent Judith et sa fille Sandra sont peut-être, eux aussi, les | fils de Klara H. |, cette femme dont l'enfant, Adolf Hitler, pleurait la mort. Max Gallo consacre ce roman à la résurgence de la violence, à la renaissance de l' | idole noire | en notre fin de siècle et dévoile le mal qui ronge notre temps. A cela qu'opposer, sinon l'amour, la tendresse, et peut-être la foi? Avec Le fils de Klara H. Max Gallo ajoute une pièce centrale à | La Machinerie humaine |, cette suite romanesque commencée chez Fayard avec La Fontaine des Innocents (1992), poursuivie avec L'Amour au temps des solitudes (1993), Les Rois sans visage et Le Condottiere (1994). | Cette oeuvre d'ampleur quasi balzacienne a mieux encore cerné ses ambitions de | Comédie humaine |. | (Le Point.) | Max Gallo, et ses romans pleins des fureurs feutrées de l'actualité, passées au tamis d'une écriture calme, lisse, pondérée, et d'autant plus efficace. | (Dominique Mobailly, La Vie.) | L'auteur impose une vision du monde d'une étonnante noirceur, dont le récit tire sa cohérence et les protagonistes leur relief. | (Thomas Ferenczi, Le Monde.) | Max Gallo apparaît de plus en plus, à qui veut bien y regarder de près, comme le Balzac de cette fin de siècle. | (Jean-Claude Joye, L'Express de Neuchâtel.) | Le romancier fascine son lecteur en proposant des portraits contrastés et d'une prodigieuse intelligence. Cette technique romanesque d'inspiration balzacienne... | (Jean-Rémi Barland, Le Provençal Magazine.) | Un auteur qui, au moins depuis une décennie, s'attache à décrire... le jeu obscur et tenace des puissants, le naufrage des espérances du plus grand nombre. Notre histoire, en somme. Max Gallo aime les péripéties, les êtres de lumière affrontés aux forces du mal, ... ce grand remuement de personnages et d'actions où s'ébrouait avec jubilation un Balzac. | (Gilles Perrault, Le Monde diplomatique.)

Blood Anger PDF - How To Download

Blood Anger PDF
By:Kent Politsch
Published on 2014-12-01 by BookBaby

Blood Anger is a fast-paced thriller set in four primary locations: the Washington-Baltimore metropolitan corridor; the Caribbean Island of Curacao; Caracas, Venezuela; and Havana, Cuba. But the action begins at the Great Wall of China. A young and unpredictable Communist leader of North Korea is being given a tour of the Wall. Chinese military intelligence officers hope to impress the young upstart. He has a beautiful companion. An assassin targets the unsuspecting high-profile tourist. Shots are fired and the sniper escapes with the aid of a surprising ally. The drama of the assassination attempt segues to an incongruent event at the Comcast Center at the University of Maryland where a men's basketball game attracts President Harris O'Neil's teenage daughter and her high school teammates from the girl's basketball program. Also attending the game is Jack Fitzgerald, a federal bureaucrat who coaches a boys AAU team from Baltimore. He is meeting his high-energy 17-year-old players at the game. When they rendezvous, Fitzgerald is entertained by the boys' discovery that the president's daughter and her teammates are quite attractive. Team leader Dante Brown makes a move to meet Bibi. The clumsy, but flirtatious encounter smites Brown's love interests. So, when on the trip back to Baltimore, he hears that the government vehicle in which Bibi and her friends were riding, is attacked by terrorists, and that the president's daughter is missing and assumed kidnapped, he vows to find her and rescue her. Jack Fitzgerald and the PAL All-stars have been involved in adventures to stop crime before. Fitzgerald knows instinctively that Brown and the others will try to find Bibi O'Neil. He warns them against them doing anything that would interfere with the work of professional lawmen who would not want them in the way. Coincidentally, the troublemaker with a hand in Bibi's kidnapping is the same villain who was involved in the PAL All-stars' first vigilante episode, although Fitzgerald and the boys are unaware. Nor is the villain aware that the PAL All-stars have a stake in his actions. The villain is North Korean-born billionaire Pak Yong-sung. Pak is brought into the kidnapping through a Chinese acquaintance -- a military intelligence officer who has hired Pak to provide the sniper at the Great Wall. Further twists to the connection complicate the attempts by the bad guys to solicit a ransom from the President of the United States. The president and his cabinet, meantime, try to come up with a cause for Bibi's abduction so they know how to search for her kidnappers. The bad guys send an important clue when they kill a California lawmaker to make sure the president knows that his daughter's life is at risk. Simultaneous to the drama unfolding in Washington, D.C. because of the abduction, U.S. military are put on alert when a small fleet of Chinese Navy vessels traverse the Panama Canal and enter the Caribbean. They carry non-military equipment that Pak and his colleagues recognize as deep water drilling equipment. The Global Anchor team learn that China and Cuba are joining forces to search for oil in the Gulf of Mexico within miles of the Florida Keys. When the Chinese fleet takes a side trip to Caracas, Venezuela, the Global Anchor team investigates why. So does the Canadian espionage network that operates from the Canadian Embassy in Washington. Canada buys a large quantity of its oil from Venezuela and could be a prospect for Cuban oil if discovered. The Canadian government is nervous, though, about China's intentions with its military ships leading the enterprise. The search for a surprisingly resourceful Bibi O'Neil, the international drama in the Caribbean, and Pak Yong-sung's mercenary involvement that he believes will further his philosophical efforts to manage the world's well being, all are affected by the teenage athletes from Baltimore. How is what Blood Anger unravels.

Emperors Once More PDF
By:Duncan Jepson
Published on 2015-06-02 by Quercus

From the author of All the Flowers in Shanghai (|strong on detail and emotional intensity|-Kirkus Reviews), Duncan Jepson, comes a new crime thriller that captures the sights and sounds of Hong Kong and propels the reader into a world of international financial intrigue. Senior Inspector Alex Soong of the Hong Kong police is a contradictory character: a student of traditional martial arts and Chinese history, he drives an imported Mustang, loves American jazz, and is married to a beautiful, high-maintenance wife, Jun, who cannot understand why he doesn't take a more highly paid and prestigious job. On the same day as he is drafted in to help Inspector Mike De Suza with the investigation of the motiveless murder of two Chinese Methodists in the financial district, the police are tipped off to an apparently unrelated murder in a deserted Kowloon warehouse: five people dead in a scene of horror which echoes the ritualistic killings of the Boxer Rebellion, a century before. As the first officer on the scene, Alex is shocked to be greeted by the concealed perpetrator, and invited to join him in reasserting China's global supremacy. After dismissing this and a second approach, he recruits historian Professor Elizabeth Yi to help him research the cases' parallels with the Boxer killings. With Hong Kong about to host an economic summit between the Chinese and the faltering G8 powers who are massively in debt to them--the same Western powers who allied successfully against China in the days of the Boxers--the stage is set for an explosive rewriting of history. When Alex will not join the shadowy conspirators seeking to manipulate public opinion against the West, they seize his wife and the professor. He is forced to run a desperate race against time that will lead him into the pitiless heart of the ancient conspiracy, and pit him against the final ruthless stage of its campaign to alter the balance of power between East and West forever.

How To Be Alone PDF
By:Jonathan Franzen
Published on 2013-10-22 by Harper Collins

From Jonathan Franzen, the National Book Award–winning author of The Corrections, come fourteen provocative and entertaining answers to the question of how to be alone in a noisy and distracting mass culture. Although Franzen’s subjects range from the sex-advice industry to the way a supermax prison works, each piece wrestles with essential themes of his writing: the erosion of civic life and private dignity, the dubious claims of technology and psychology, the tragic shape of the individual life. Recent pieces include a moving essay on his father’s struggle with Alzheimer’s disease and a rueful account of Franzen’s brief tenure as an Oprah Winfrey author. This is a book that will further cement Franzen’s reputation as one of the sharpest, toughest, and liveliest writers at work today.
