But Where''s Home?


It''s 1963 in the small town of Monroe, New York. The Arringtons, a Black family, buy a house in a picturesque, all-white neighborhood. Some residents are welcoming, but many react to Dr. Philip Arrington, his wife Velma, and their daughters Livia and Maddie by conspiring against their success in both big and small ways. Amidst this mix of hostility and shaky acceptance, the Arringtons must navigate their careers, deal with a volatile marriage, and raise their daughters._x000D_But Where''s Home?, Toni Ann Johnson''s linked short story collection, explores the sometimes painful and often humorous experiences of the Arrington family as upper-middle-class Black people in a predominantly white, mostly working-class community. This book follows Johnson''s previous collection, Light Skin Gone to Waste, which won the 2021 Flannery O''Connor Award. Through multiple perspectives that span from the 1960s to 2022, readers are invited into the lives of the eldest daughter, who longs for her father''s affection while striving for independence; the youngest daughter, who seeks to overcome childhood pain through music and love; a mother dealing with infidelity that wounds and infuriates her, while raising her daughters in a place that rejects them; and a father practicing psychology while engaging in affairs with the white women of the town._x000D_Deeply emotional, funny, and unflinchingly honest, But Where''s Home? lays bare the realities of Black life in America, challenging readers to confront issues of racism, classism, colonized thinking, narcissism, abuse, and parent-child relationships. Johnson''s complex and interwoven characters create a kaleidoscope of truths about human nature and the complicated relationship the United States has with race.

Red Star Rebels


8 HOURS TO STOP AN EXPLOSION ... 8 HOURS TO FALL IN LOVE.

It's 2067, and the Graves family has transformed Mars from a lifeless rock into a chaotic patch of settlements - equal parts national pride, and corporate power grab. Enter Hunter Graves: handsome, ambitious, and with spectacularly bad timing. He shows up unannounced at the United Nations base just in time for a toxin alert to set off every alarm they've got. Then the evac pods leave without him. Also stranded: Cleo, a sharp-tongued stowaway with no intention of dying today, and even less patience for overconfident trust fund boys. But the enemy of your enemy is the jerk who might just help you survive. There is no toxin. There is a team of invading mercenaries planning to blow up the base - and every trace of their crime - in eight hours. Now, Hunter and Cleo have one shot to stop the explosion, escape alive, and deal with the inconvenient fact that they're falling for each other. The clock is ticking.

Everyday Movement


"A powerful novel set in a Hong Kong that feels remarkably universal." —Mohsin Hamid, author of Exit West"A dazzling, page-turning novel...Gripping, specific, important, and highly satisfying.” —Elif Batuman, author of The Idiot and Either/OrA powerful, award-winning novel that follows the lives of two women as democracy starts to crumble in Hong KongOn a weekend morning, college roommates Ah Lei and Panda wake up with very different reactions to the night before. They have been chased and tear-gassed in the streets of their city after joining tens of thousands of others to protest a national security law that would effectively spell the end of democracy in Hong Kong. Ah Lei can’t get out of bed, her heart heavy with the lingering images of the police and the violence on the streets, and her worries about the future of her hometown. Panda, whose resistance is no less ardent, puts on a sundress, lines her eyes, and urges Ah Lei to join her for brunch.While the demonstrations rage, the routine of life also persists for Ah Lei, Panda, and people in their orbits. They attend family gatherings, fight with their mothers, try and fail to focus at work on Mondays, and make time for dinner dates and app hookups. But the looming political tension and anxiety for the future transform such everyday encounters. In the span of a few months, life as they know it seems to become a mirage: the comfort of air-conditioned shopping malls is disrupted by bloodshed; tear gas and the sounds of rubber bullets amid neon signs strangely evoke happier memories of summer night fireworks.Gigi L. Leung’s visceral novel Everyday Movement reveals existential questions that interrupt normal life: belonging, patriotism, and the meaningfulness of an electoral democracy, as well as the pampering sense of normalcy created by consumerism. Fiery and tender, Leung’s writing captures the heartbreak, turmoil, and rebirth in bearing witness to and engaging with a shattering reality.

With her days divided between perfecting her greenhouse, seeking revenge for her sister's murder, and putting a gun to the head of anyone in her way, Evelina doesn't have time for anything else. Especially not for love. After a one-night stand with a gorgeous man at a nightclub, she's sated her urges and is back to her criminal ways. That is, until that same man shows up as the new Westerly lackey...under a totally different name. But Nicholas Woodsworth's real secret is much more dangerous than an alias. He's an undercover DEA agent, and he's hell-bent on destroying the drug trade that devastated his family. When he realizes the youngest daughter of the Westerly empire is the same woman he's been fantasizing about since that night at the club, attraction wars violently with disgust. Evelina embodies everything he's against, and he's been sent here to be her downfall. Yet the more they learn about the darkness in each other's hearts, the more alike they seem, and when hatred turns to something more, Nicholas will have to decide whether he can love a wretched woman, even if it means bringing both of their lives to ruin.

Night of the Golden Butterfly


Night of the Golden Butterfly concludes the Islam Quintet-Tariq Ali's much lauded series of historical novels, over twenty years in the writing, which has been translated into a dozen languages Completing an epic panorama that began in fifteenth-century Moorish Spain, the concluding novel moves between the cities of the twenty-first century, from Lahore to London, from Paris to Beijing. The narrator is rung one morning and reminded that he owes a debt of honour. The creditor is Mohammed Aflatun-known as Plato-an irascible but gifted painter living in a Pakistan where "human dignity has become a wreckage." Plato, who once specialized in stepping back from the limelight, now wants his life story written. As the tale unravels we meet Plato's London friend Alice Stepford, now a leading music critic in New York; Mrs. "Naughty" Latif, the Islamabad housewife whose fondness for generals forces her to flee to the salons of intellectually fashionable Paris, where she becomes an overnight celebrity, hailed as the Diderot of the Islamic world; and there's Jindie, the Golden Butterfly of the title, the narrator's first love. The daughter of a Chinese family long settled in Lahore, Jindie is now married to his best friend, a Republican heart surgeon in DC, whose children cannot forgive him for saving the life of a much-despised politician. Interwoven with this chronicle of contemporary life is the turbulent history of Jindie's family. Her great forebear, Du Wénxiu, led a Muslim rebellion in Yunnan in the nineteenth century and ruled the region from his capital Dali for almost a decade as Sultan Suleiman. Night of the Golden Butterfly shows Ali in full flight, at once imaginative and intelligent, satirical and stimulating.

Zsakaranda


A 11 éves Milan halálosan unatkozik franciaországi otthonában; csak a televízión keresztül jutnak el hozzá a távoli tragédiák visszhangtöredékei. Aztán 1994 nyarán a családja befogad egy Ruandából jött állítólagos unokatestvért, Claude-ot. Milant először zavarba ejti ez a hallgatag, sérült fiú, de hamarosan testvérre lel benne: megoszthatja vele a szobáját, a játékait és a szenvedélyeit. Ám az új testvért éppolyan váratlanul ragadják el tőle, ahogyan felbukkant. Milan ismét egyedül marad, és most már a veszteség és a szülők hallgatása is nyomasztja. Később, már fiatalemberként lépésről lépésre, utazásról utazásra eljut a családi titok forrásához, abba az országba, amely a népirtás után próbálja újraépíteni önmagát. Gaël Faye egyedülálló gyengédséggel rajzolja meg szereplői sorsát. Négy generáción át meséli el annak a népnek a történetét, amely a véres múlt dacára párbeszédre, megbocsátásra törekszik. „Apám állította, hogy a bőrszínük különbsége számára sosem volt gond. "A szerelemnek nincs színe", mondogatta. Büszkén mondta, azt hirdetve, hogy nem is látja anyám színét. Mivel anyám hallgatott a származásáról, szinte el is felejtettem, hogy más ég alatt született és nőtt fel, mint mi. Annyira, hogy amikor azon kaptam, hogy kinyarwanda nyelven telefonál, döbbenten megtorpantam, hallva, hogy folyékonyan beszél egy ismeretlen nyelven. Sosem tudtam meg, kivel beszélt.”
