of humor, and the sense of<br />

Sicily.” —Donna Leon<br />
The latest mystery in the internationally<br />
bestselling Inspector Montalbano series<br />
The Age of Doubt<br />
An Inspector Montalbano Mystery<br />
Andrea Camilleri<br />
Translated by Stephen Sartarelli<br />
With their dark sophistication and dry humor, Andrea Camilleri’s<br />
hugely popular Sicilian crime novels continue to win more and<br />
more fans in America.<br />
The day after a storm, Inspector Montalbano encounters a<br />
strange woman who expresses interest in a certain yacht scheduled<br />
to dock that afternoon. Not long after she’s gone, the yacht’s crew<br />
reports finding a disfigured corpse. Also at anchor is a luxury<br />
vessel with a somewhat shady crew. Both boats will have to stay<br />
in Vigàta until the investigation is over, and based on information<br />
from the woman, Montalbano begins to think the occupants<br />
of the yacht might know more about the murder than they’re<br />
letting on.<br />
n The Inspector Montalbano series has sold more than 430,000 copies<br />
n August Heat, The Track of Sand, and Camilleri’s most recent book,<br />
The Potter’s Field, were all New York Times bestsellers<br />

Not Working<br />
People Talk About Losing a Job and<br />
Finding Their Way in Today’s<br />
Changing Economy<br />
DW Gibson<br />
Inspired by Studs Terkel’s Working, DW Gibson set off on a journey<br />
across the United States to interview Americans who have lost<br />
their jobs. Here is the mortgage broker who arrived at work to find<br />
the door to his office building padlocked, the human resources<br />
executive who laid off a couple hundred people before being laid<br />
off herself, the husband who was laid off two weeks after his wife<br />
learned she was pregnant, the wife who was forced to lay off her<br />
husband.<br />
In telling the stories of people who could be our neighbors,<br />
our friends, our relatives, Not Working holds up a mirror to our<br />
times, showing us the individuals behind the unemployment statistics—their<br />
fears and hopes—and offering a map for navigating<br />
our changing economy. With an extraordinary mix of pathos, anger,<br />
solidarity, and humor, it brings clarity—and humanity—to the<br />
national conversation.<br />

Willpower<br />
Rediscovering the Greatest Human Strength<br />
Roy F. Baumeister and John Tierney<br />
Pioneering research psychologist Roy F. Baumeister<br />
collaborates with New York Times science writer John<br />
Tierney to revolutionize our understanding of the<br />
most coveted human virtue: self-control. Drawing on<br />
cutting-edge research and the wisdom of real-life experts,<br />
Willpower shares lessons on how to focus our strength,<br />
resist temptation, and redirect our lives. It shows readers<br />
how to be realistic when setting goals, monitor their<br />
progress, and keep faith when they falter. By blending<br />
practical wisdom with the best of recent research science,<br />
Willpower makes it clear that whatever we seek—from<br />
happiness to good health to financial security—we won’t<br />
reach our goals without first learning to harness selfcontrol.<br />
Roy f. BaumeisteR directs<br />
the social psychology program at Florida<br />
State University and has written more than<br />
450 scientific publications. He lives in<br />
Tallahassee, Florida.<br />
John tieRney writes the “Findings”<br />
science column for the New York Times and<br />
is the author of two previous books. He lives<br />
in Brooklyn, New York.<br />

and keep resolutions.” —Publishers Weekly<br />
“ Willpower (the thing) lies at the curious<br />
intersection of science and behavior.<br />

of Roy Baumeister, an extraordinarily creative<br />

From Willpower:<br />
Acquiring self-control isn’t as magically simple as the techniques<br />
in modern self-help books, but neither does it have to be as grim<br />
as the Victorians made it out to be. Ultimately, self-control lets<br />
you relax because it removes stress and enables you to conserve<br />
willpower for the important challenges. We’re confident that<br />
this book’s lessons can make your life not just more productive<br />
and fulfilling but also easier and happier.<br />

On Canaan’s Side<br />
A Novel<br />
Sebastian Barry<br />
Winning glowing tributes from reviewers and celebrated<br />
novelists such as Colm Toíbín, Joseph O’Neill, and Helen<br />
Simonson, Sebastian Barry’s extraordinary fifth novel<br />
returns to the Dunne family and confirms his place as one<br />
of the most remarkable writers of our time.<br />
On Canaan’s Side opens as the eighty-five-year-old<br />
Irish émigré Lilly Bere mourns the loss of her grandson<br />
Bill. Lilly, the daughter of a Dublin policeman, revisits<br />
her eventful life, going back to the moment she was<br />
forced to flee Ireland at the end of the First World War.<br />
She continues her tale in America, where—far from her<br />
family—she first tastes the sweetness of love and the bitterness<br />
of betrayal.<br />
seBastian BaRRy lives with his<br />
wife and three children in Wicklow, Ireland.<br />
“ Barry [is] the greatest prose writer in Irish<br />
letters—which by definition makes him<br />
the greatest writer of prose in the<br />
English language.” —Allen Barra,<br />
The Daily Beast “Must Reads”<br />
“ A novel with so many twists and killings and<br />
cases of mistaken identity that were it not<br />
for Lilly’s musical language it might be<br />
mistaken for a thriller.” —Rachel Nolan,<br />
The New York Times Book Review<br />
“ The play of history as it most intimately affects<br />
individual human lives . . . is on exquisitely<br />
touching display.”<br />
—The Philadelphia Inquirer<br />
“ On Canaan’s Side is written with vast<br />
sympathy and tenderness. . . .<br />
It is also fully alert to the power and irony<br />
of history.” —Colm Tóibín<br />

The Sartorialist II<br />
Scott Schuman<br />
Like the iconic fashion blog that inspired it, Scott<br />
Schuman’s The Sartorialist was an immediate sensation.<br />
With more than 100,000 copies in print, it has captivated<br />
fashion watchers and industry insiders alike. Schuman<br />
follows up on this success with another incredible collection<br />
of photos—some of which have never been seen<br />
before—that showcases real people on the street in<br />
places as diverse as New York, Los Angeles, Las Vegas,<br />
Copenhagen, Essaouria, Ouarzazate, Madrid, Barcelona,<br />
Sydney, Melbourne, Florence, Stockholm, Paris, London,<br />
Moscow, Tokyo, and Seoul.<br />
A lavish tribute to the men and women whose glorious<br />
style continues to inspire him, The Sartorialist II—like its<br />
predecessor—will be the season’s must-have fashion book.<br />
sCott sChuman started “The Sartorialist” simply to share<br />
photos of people on the street that were visually charismatic. The blog now<br />
receives more than 14 million page views per month, and Schuman’s work<br />
has been featured in GQ, Vogue Italia, Vogue Paris, and Interview. His work<br />
resides in the permanent collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum and<br />
the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography. He lives in New York with<br />
fellow style blogger Garance Doré.<br />
Praise for Scott Schuman and The Sartorialist:<br />
“ Make room on your bookshelf.”<br />
—The New York Times’s “The Moment” blog<br />
“ Schuman’s pictures put fashion in the context<br />
of life.” —Salon.com<br />
“ Scott doesn’t just take pictures,<br />
he captures emotion. He is not just a<br />
photographer. He’s a historian marking the<br />
feeling of this generation one photo at a time.”<br />

The Story<br />
of England<br />
Michael Wood<br />
The village of Kibworth in Leicestershire lies at the very center of<br />
England. It has an ancient church, some pubs, the Grand Union<br />
Canal, a First World War memorial—and many centuries of recorded<br />
history. Enlisting the villagers—who dug test pits in their<br />
backyards in search of Roman pottery, who were DNA tested to<br />
examine their Viking origins, and who offered up their collections<br />
of photos and documents—and using the extensive archives of the<br />
village housed at Merton College Oxford, historian Michael Wood<br />
tells the incredible story of the village over two thousand years.<br />
This is a people’s history of England told through the history of<br />
one small community.<br />
n The Viking U.K. edition has sold more than 35,000 copies in hardcover<br />

Freud’s Sister<br />
A Novel<br />
Goce Smilevski<br />
Translated by Christina E. Kramer<br />
Vienna, 1938: With the Nazis closing in, Sigmund Freud<br />
is granted an exit visa and allowed to list the names of<br />
people to take with him. He lists his doctor and maids, his<br />
dog and his wife’s sister, but he doesn’t list any of his own<br />
sisters. The four Freud sisters are shuttled to the Terezín<br />
concentration camp, while their brother lives out his last<br />
days in London.<br />
Based on a true story, this searing novel gives haunting<br />
voice to Freud’s sister Adolfina—“the sweetest and best of<br />
my sisters”—a gifted, sensitive woman who was spurned<br />
by her mother and who never married. From her closeness<br />
with her brother in childhood, to her love for a fellow<br />
student, to her time with Gustav Klimt’s sister in a Vienna<br />
psychiatric hospital, to her dream of one day living in<br />
Venice and having a family, Freud’s Sister imagines the life<br />
of a woman lost to the shadows of history with astonishing<br />
insight and deep feeling.<br />
goCe smilevski was born in<br />
1975 in Skopje, Macedonia. He works at the<br />
Institute for Literature at Methodius University<br />
in Skopje, where he lives.<br />
ChRistina e. kRameR is a<br />
professor of Slavic and Balkan languages<br />
and linguistics at the University of Toronto.<br />
She lives in Ontario, Canada.<br />
“ A young heir to Günter Grass and José<br />
Saramago, Smilevski might be the newest of a<br />
rare thing—a living European novelist with a<br />
message for the future of his continent.”<br />
—The Jewish Daily Forward<br />
From the Italian reviews:<br />
“ Original and enthralling.” —Il Sole 24 Ore<br />
“ Strong, multi-layered, obsessive<br />
[like] José Saramago.” —La Repubblica<br />
“ A passionate novel . . . I am<br />
impressed.” —Mario Fortunato, L’Espresso<br />

The silence around Adolfina Freud is so loud that I<br />
could write this novel in no other way than in her voice.<br />
The well-known facts of Sigmund Freud’s life were<br />
like scenery, or like the walls of a labyrinth in which I<br />
wandered for years, trying to find the corridors where<br />
I could hear Adolfina’s voice so I could write it down,<br />
and in this way rescue in fiction one of the many lives<br />
forgotten by history.<br />

Call for the Dead<br />
A George Smiley Novel<br />
George Smiley is no one’s idea of a spy—which is<br />
perhaps why he’s such a natural. But Smiley apparently<br />
made a mistake. After a routine security interview, he<br />
concluded that the affable Samuel Fennan had nothing<br />
to hide. Why, then, did the man from the Foreign Office<br />
shoot himself in the head only hours later? Or did he?<br />
The heart-stopping tale of intrigue that launched<br />
both novelist and spy, Call for the Dead is an essential<br />
introduction to le Carré’s chillingly amoral universe.<br />
A Murder of Quality<br />
A George Smiley Novel<br />
John le Carré’s second novel, A Murder of Quality, offers<br />
an exquisite, satirical look at an elite private school as it<br />
chronicles the early development of George Smiley.<br />
Miss Ailsa Brimley is in a quandary. She’s received<br />
a peculiar letter from Mrs. Stella Rode, saying that<br />
she fears her husband—an assistant master at Carne<br />
School—is trying to kill her. Reluctant to go to the police,<br />
Miss Brimley calls upon her old wartime colleague,<br />
George Smiley. Unfortunately, it’s too late. Mrs. Rode<br />
has just been murdered. As Smiley takes up the investigation,<br />
he realizes that in life—as in espionage—nothing<br />
is quite what it appears.<br />
John le CaRRé, the author of<br />
twenty-two novels, is the pseudonym for<br />
David Cornwell, who was a member of the<br />
British Foreign Service from 1959 to 1964.<br />
Many of his books have been made into films,<br />
including The Constant Gardener; The Russia<br />
House; The Little Drummer Girl; and Tinker,<br />
Tailor, Soldier, Spy.<br />
Praise for Call for the Dead:<br />
“ A subtle and acute story of counterespionage<br />
marked by restraint, indirection,<br />
and intelligence.”<br />
—The New York Times Book Review<br />
“ Brilliant. Realistic. Constant suspense .<br />
. . excellent writing.” —The Observer (London)<br />
“ Thrilling . . . makes most cloak-anddagger<br />
stuff taste of cardboard.”<br />

The End<br />
The Defiance and Destruction of Hitler’s Germany, 1944–1945<br />
Ian Kershaw<br />
Countless books have been written about why Nazi Germany<br />
lost the Second World War, yet remarkably little attention has<br />
been paid to the equally vital questions of how and why the Third<br />
Reich did not surrender until Germany had been left in ruins and<br />
almost completely occupied. Drawing on prodigious new<br />
research, award-winning historian and author of Fateful Choices<br />
Ian Kershaw explores these fascinating questions in a gripping<br />
and focused narrative that begins with the failed bomb plot in<br />
July 1944 and ends with the death of Adolf Hitler and the German<br />
capitulation in 1945. The End paints a harrowing yet enthralling<br />
portrait of the Third Reich in its last desperate gasps.<br />
n A New York Times bestseller<br />

Your Medical Mind<br />
How to Decide What Is Right for You<br />
Jerome Groopman, MD, and<br />
Pamela Hartzband, MD<br />
Making the right medical decisions is harder than ever. We’re<br />
overwhelmed by information from all sides—whether our doctors’<br />
recommendations, dissenting experts’ opinions, confusing statistics,<br />
or testimonials on the Internet. Now Dr. Jerome Groopman,<br />
author of the New York Times bestselling How Doctors Think,<br />
and Dr. Pamela Hartzband reveal that each of us has a “medical<br />
mind,” a highly individual approach to weighing the risks and<br />
benefits of treatment. Are you a minimalist or a maximalist, a believer<br />
or a doubter, or do you look for natural healing or the latest<br />
technology? The authors weave vivid narratives of real patients,<br />
with insights from recent research, to demonstrate the power of<br />
the medical mind. After reading this groundbreaking book, you’ll<br />
know how to arrive at choices that serve you best.<br />

ROALD DAHL<br />
My Uncle Oswald<br />
Children and adults alike adore the dark humor that pervades<br />
such Roald Dahl classics as Charlie and the Chocolate<br />
Factory and Fantastic Mr. Fox. Yet the celebrated author<br />
sometimes followed his imagination down a much more<br />
risqué path.<br />
Showcasing this lesser-known side of Dahl’s celebrated<br />
genius, My Uncle Oswald is the unapologetically racy<br />
memoir of Oswald Hendryks Cornelius—bon vivant, collector<br />
of spiders, and undoubtedly the greatest fornicator<br />
of all time.<br />
Switch Bitch<br />
Great wit, melancholy, and lust pervade this collection of<br />
four adult short stories by Roald Dahl. Included here are<br />
“The Visitor” and “Bitch,” featuring the hilariously vivid<br />
exploits of the notorious Uncle Oswald, as well as “The<br />
Great Switcheroo” and “The Last Act.”<br />
In these taut black comedies of human weakness and<br />
unexpected reversal, Dahl captures the delicious thrill of<br />
sexual triumph and the galling deflation of defeat.<br />
RoalD Dahl (1916–1990) was born in<br />
Wales to Norwegian parents. He is best known<br />
for the children’s novels James and the Giant<br />
Peach, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The<br />
Witches, Fantastic Mr. Fox, and Matilda.<br />
Praise for My Uncle Oswald:<br />
“ A festival of bad taste that is at heart so<br />
innocent that we soon forgive it and enjoy<br />
ourselves.” —Christopher Lehmann-Haupt<br />
Praise for Switch Bitch:<br />
“ Somewhere this or the other side of<br />
pornography.” —The New Statesman (London)<br />

learning disabilities can find schools that fit their needs. For every<br />
prospective college student searching for more than football and<br />
frat parties, Colleges That Change Lives will prove indispensable.<br />

From Josh Seefried, cofounder of OutServe, the first social<br />

book that captures a defining chapter in the history of the modern<br />
military. Our Time relates the firsthand accounts of those men<br />
and women who enlisted knowing that the service would demand<br />
them to bury an integral part of themselves. The stories of the<br />
abuse and hardship endured by these soldiers astound, and yet<br />
there are also remarkable moments of humanity, friendship, and<br />
connection. Our Time celebrates the special bravery of those<br />
who chose to defend their country while their own freedom was<br />
withheld.<br />

The Quest<br />
Energy, Security, and the Remaking of the Modern World<br />
Daniel Yergin<br />
A master storyteller as well as a leading energy expert,<br />
Daniel Yergin continues the riveting story begun in his<br />
Pulitzer Prize–winning book, The Prize. In The Quest,<br />
Yergin shows us how energy is an engine of global, political,<br />
and economic change and conflict, in a story that spans the<br />
energies on which our civilization has been built and the<br />
new energies that are competing to replace them.<br />
The Quest tells the inside stories, tackles the tough<br />
questions, and reveals surprising insights about coal, electricity,<br />
and natural gas. He explains how climate change<br />
became a great issue and leads readers through the rebirth<br />
of renewable energies, energy independence, and the<br />
return of the electric car. Epic in scope and never more<br />
timely, The Quest vividly reveals the decisions, technologies,<br />
and individuals that are shaping our future.<br />
Daniel yeRgin is one of the<br />
most influential voices on energy in the<br />
world and a highly respected authority on<br />
international politics and economics. He lives<br />
in Washington, D.C.<br />
“ An even better book [than The Prize] . . .<br />
impartial and alarmingly up to date. The<br />
Quest will be necessary reading for<br />
CEOs, conservationists, lawmakers, generals,<br />
spies, tech geeks, thriller writers . . . and many<br />
others.” —The New York Times<br />
“ [A] sprawling story richly textured with<br />
original material, quirky details, and amusing<br />
anecdotes.” —The Wall Street Journal<br />
“ [An] important book . . . a valuable primer<br />
on the basic issues that define energy today.”<br />
— Fareed Zakaria, The New York Times<br />
Book Review<br />
“ This is the one book you must<br />

From The Quest:<br />
The renewed uncertainty and insecurity about energy,<br />
and the anticipation of deeper crisis, underscores a<br />
fundamental reality—how important energy is to the<br />
world.<br />
This book tries to explain that importance. It is<br />
the story of the quest for the energy on which we so<br />
completely rely, for the position and rewards that accrue<br />
from energy, and for the security it affords. It is about<br />
how the modern energy world developed, about how<br />
concerns about climate and carbon are changing it, and<br />
about how different the energy world may be tomorrow.<br />

The Kitchen Counter Cooking School<br />
How a Few Simple Lessons Transformed Nine Culinary Novices into Fearless Home Cooks<br />
Kathleen Flinn<br />
Recent Le Cordon Bleu graduate Kathleen Flinn watched<br />
a woman load her grocery cart with expensive, ultra-processed<br />
foods and asked her why. The answer was simple:<br />
She didn’t know how to cook. Inspired, Flinn persuaded<br />
the stranger and eight other “hopeless” cooks to let her<br />
teach them the basic cooking skills and easy recipes they<br />
needed to have confidence in the kitchen.<br />
What Not to Wear meets Michael Pollan’s bestselling<br />
books, The Kitchen Counter Cooking School will inspire<br />
ordinary Americans to return to their kitchens—definitely<br />
proving that you don’t have to be a domestic goddess or<br />
spend a lot of money to enjoy healthy, delicious, homemade<br />
meals.<br />
kathleen flinn’s work has<br />
appeared in the Chicago Tribune, USA<br />
Weekend, Men’s Fitness, and many other<br />
publications. She divides her time between<br />
Seattle, Washington, and southwest Florida.<br />
“ An engaging . . . book on the joys of home<br />
cooking and the teaching thereof.”<br />
—The Wall Street Journal<br />
“ This could be the most important book<br />
you’ll ever read.” —Morgan Spurlock, creator<br />
of Super Size Me<br />
“ Many people want to improve the way<br />
Americans eat. But few are as brave and<br />
open-minded as Kathleen Flinn.”<br />

The Better Angels of Our Nature<br />
Why Violence Has Declined<br />
Steven Pinker<br />
Believe it or not, today we may be living in the most<br />
peaceful moment in our species’ existence. In his<br />
gripping and controversial new work, New York<br />
Times bestselling author Steven Pinker shows that<br />
despite the ceaseless news about war, crime, and<br />
terrorism, violence has actually been in decline over<br />
long stretches of history. Exploding myths about<br />
humankind’s inherent violence and the curse of<br />
modernity, this ambitious book continues Pinker’s<br />
exploration of the essence of human nature, mixing<br />
psychology and history to provide a remarkable picture<br />
of an increasingly enlightened world.<br />
steven PinkeR is a two-time<br />
Pulitzer Prize finalist and the winner of<br />
many honors for his research, teaching, and<br />
books. He has been named one of TIME’s<br />
100 most influential people in the world<br />
today and one of Foreign Policy’s 100 Global<br />
Thinkers. He is a professor of psychology<br />
at Harvard University and lives in Boston,<br />
Massachusetts.<br />

Laurence Bergreen<br />
A New York Times bestseller and the first full biography<br />
of Christopher Columbus in sixty years, Columbus takes<br />
a vital and provocative approach to understanding<br />
the extraordinary man who went looking for China<br />
and bumped into a new world. Prizewinning author<br />

epic transatlantic journeys, showing us as never before<br />
the masterful seaman and ambitious entrepreneur who<br />
became a slaver, encouraged genocide, and changed the<br />
course of world history forever before ending his life<br />
broken in body and spirit. Based on Columbus’s personal<br />
journals and correspondence, as well as eyewitness<br />
accounts, this will be the defining portrait of Columbus<br />
for years to come.<br />

the demands of his faith, he become progressively less<br />
rational and more extreme, until it seemed as if he lived<br />
more in his glorious illusions than in the grueling reality<br />
his voyages laid bare. If the first voyage illustrates the<br />
rewards of exploration, the three subsequent voyages<br />
illustrate the costs—political, moral, and economic.<br />

Murder in the<br />
Rue Dumas<br />
A Verlaque and Bonnet Mystery<br />
M. L. Longworth<br />
Aix-en-Provence is renowned for its lavender, wine—and murders.<br />
When M. L. Longworth debuted her charming mystery series<br />
featuring the crime-solving duo of Judge Antoine Verlaque and<br />
his on-again, off-again girlfriend, law professor Marine Bonnet,<br />
she won rave reviews and fans eager for their next adventure.<br />
Murder in the Rue Dumas finds Verlaque stumped. The director<br />
of theology at the Université d’Aix was just about to name the<br />
recipient of an elite fellowship, as well as his own successor, when<br />
his lips were sealed permanently. Yet Verlaque isn’t convinced<br />
that any of the academics are capable of murder. Aided by Bonnet,<br />
Verlaque turns Provence upside down, uncovering a world far<br />
more complicated than university politics.<br />

and suspicion. Their innocent games soon bring them face-toface<br />
with the village’s darkest secrets in this eerily dispassionate,<br />

A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America<br />
Colin Woodard<br />
According to award-winning journalist and historian Colin<br />

he takes readers on a journey through the history of our fractured<br />

American identity, and how the conflicts between them have<br />
shaped our past and are molding our future. From the Deep South<br />
to the Far West, to Yankeedom to El Norte, Woodard reveals how<br />
each region continues to uphold its distinguishing ideals and<br />
identities today, with results that can be seen in the composition<br />
of the U.S. Congress or on the county-by-county election maps of<br />
presidential elections.<br />

political conflict.<br />

Storyteller<br />
Leslie Marmon Silko<br />
Leslie Marmon Silko’s groundbreaking book Storyteller, first published<br />
in 1981, blends original short stories and poetry influenced<br />
by the traditional oral tales that she heard growing up on the<br />
Laguna Pueblo in New Mexico with autobiographical passages,<br />
folktales, family memories, and photographs. As she mixes traditional<br />
and Western literary genres, Silko examines themes of<br />
memory, alienation, power, and identity; communicates Native<br />
American notions regarding time, nature, and spirituality; and<br />
explores how stories and storytelling shape people and communities.<br />
Storyteller illustrates how one can frame collective cultural<br />
identity in contemporary literary forms, as well as illuminates the<br />
importance of myth, oral tradition, and ritual in Silko’s own work.<br />
This edition includes a new introduction by Silko and previously<br />
unpublished photographs.<br />
n Leslie Marmon Silko’s Ceremony has sold nearly a million copies in<br />
paperback<br />

Misha Glenny<br />
This unique and lively history of Balkan geopolitics since the<br />
early nineteenth century gives readers the essential historical<br />
background to more than one hundred years of events in this wartorn<br />
area. No other book covers the entire region, or offers such<br />
profound insights into the roots of Balkan violence, or explains<br />
so vividly the origins of modern Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, Greece,<br />
Bulgaria, Romania, and Albania. Now updated to include the fall<br />
o<br />
of Slobodan Milosević, the capture of all indicted war criminals<br />
from the Yugoslav wars, and each state’s quest for legitimacy in<br />
the European Union, The Balkans explores the often catastrophic<br />
relationship between the Balkans and the Great Powers, raising<br />
some disturbing questions about Western intervention.<br />
misha glenny, the longtime central European<br />
correspondent for the BBC World Service based in Vienna, has lived<br />

Praise for Debora Greger:<br />
“ An exemplary Greger<br />
poem occurs to the ear as<br />
a striking painting does to<br />
the eye: the particulars of<br />
its composition emerge<br />
only after the first thrill of<br />
the whole.”<br />
—Harvard Review<br />
An artful, compelling new collection from<br />
“a special poet in every sense” (Poetry)<br />
By Herself<br />
Debora Greger<br />
The poems in Debora Greger’s new book journey from Florida to<br />
England to Venice, finding in the byways and accidents of travel<br />
the ghostly presences that mark the poet’s passage from youth<br />
half-forgotten to the edge of old age: the younger self that, like<br />
some heroine in Henry James, she catches glimpses of and barely<br />
recognizes; the long-dead poets unable to sleep, with things still<br />
on their mind. The elegies threaded through this mature, startling<br />
book recognize life moving toward the shadows—these are poems<br />
of old responsibilities and new virtues, looking back as a way of<br />
looking forward.<br />
n Also available as an e-book<br />
DeBoRa gRegeR is the author of eight previous books of<br />
poems. She has won, among other honors, the Grolier Prize, the Discovery/<br />
The Nation Award, the Lavan Younger Poets Award, an Award in Literature<br />
from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, and the<br />
Brandeis University Award in Poetry. She lives in Florida and in Cambridge,<br />

Strange Flesh 978-0-14-311446-8 $18.00<br />
A new collection by one of our<br />
foremost masters of free verse<br />
as well as formal poetry<br />
Madame X<br />
William Logan<br />
The moody poems in Madame X, William Logan’s tenth collection,<br />
find their subjects in the byways of the past two centuries.<br />
Henry James visits his birthplace, the most beautiful woman in<br />
Europe ends up in a barrel at a fun fair, and a minor writer succumbs<br />
to tuberculosis at a German spa. In the title poem, a portrait<br />
of Madame X offers our century a lesson in seduction—but<br />
such public shows are balanced by poems of private desire, of the<br />
whispers of age, of the present always vanishing before us. These<br />
densely figured poems, rich in language and appointment, argue<br />
for a knowledge not sustained by the everyday. This is a triumphant<br />
collection of shimmering intensities and hard truths.<br />
William logan has published ten volumes of poetry<br />
and five volumes of essays and poetry, including The Undiscovered<br />
Country, which won the National Book Critics Circle Award in<br />
criticism. He lives in Gainesville, Florida, and Cambridge, England.<br />

Civilization<br />
The West and the Rest<br />
Niall Ferguson<br />
The global ascendancy of Western civilization is the single<br />
most important historical phenomenon of the past five<br />
centuries. How did the West overtake its Eastern rivals?<br />
And has the zenith of Western power now passed? In<br />
Civilization, acclaimed historian and author of The Ascent<br />
of Money Niall Ferguson chronicles the rise and fall of<br />
empires alongside the clashes of civilizations, recasting<br />
the history of the world with verve and wit.<br />
Ferguson argues that beginning in the fifteenth century,<br />
the West developed powerful “killer applications,”<br />
including competition, science, and the rule of law, which<br />
allowed it to surpass the Rest and dominate the world<br />
economy. But the age of Western predominance may be<br />
ending in our time. Boldly argued and teeming with memorable<br />
characters, Civilization is Ferguson at his very best.<br />
niall feRguson is one of<br />
Britain’s most renowned historians. He is<br />
the bestselling author of numerous books,<br />
including High Financier and The Ascent<br />
of Money. He divides his time between the<br />
United States and the United Kingdom.<br />
“ Written with vitality and verve . . . a tour de<br />
force.” —The Boston Globe<br />
“ A dazzling history of Western ideas that<br />
sets out to provide the reader with epic<br />
answers.” —The Economist<br />
“ A pulsing energy suffuses [Ferguson’s]<br />
account. . . . Fascinating facts burst like<br />
fireworks on every page.”<br />
—The Sunday Times (London)<br />
“ This is sharp. It feels urgent. Ferguson,<br />
with a properly financially literate mind,<br />
twists his knife with great literary brio.”<br />

Juliette Fay<br />
Sean Doran has spent twenty years in third-world war<br />
zones and natural disaster areas, fully embracing what he’d<br />
always felt was his purpose: to do as much good as possible.<br />
But when burnout sets in, Sean finds himself reluctantly<br />

that his steely elderly aunt, dramatic sister, and quirky<br />
nephew are having a little natural disaster of their own, and<br />
that midlife romance gets complicated fast when the high<br />
school queen bee is involved. But it’s an old friend —the<br />
class wallflower—who has Sean wondering if his destiny<br />
is about to be rewritten all over again, in another perfect<br />
serving of a slice of life from the irresistible Fay.<br />
Juliette fay earned her BA from<br />
Boston College and an MA from Harvard<br />

Cuban wife, Renata, face-to-face with the darkest facets of human<br />
nature—and the illuminating power of love in the face of death.<br />

Forever Rumpole<br />
The Best of the Rumpole Stories<br />
John Mortimer<br />
Introduction by Ann Mallalieu<br />
John Mortimer—novelist, playwright, memoirist, and the author<br />
of more than eighty Rumpole short stories—will never be forgotten.<br />
While still a practicing barrister, Mortimer took up the pen,<br />
and the rest is literary history. His stories featuring the cigarchomping,<br />
cheap-wine-tippling Horace Rumpole and his wife,<br />
Hilda (aka “She Who Must Be Obeyed”), have justly earned their<br />
place in the pantheon of mystery-fiction, becoming the basis for<br />
the very successful television series Rumpole of the Bailey. Included<br />
here are Rumpole’s most entertaining adventures (several<br />
of which were collected in The Best of Rumpole) together with a<br />
fragment of a new story. Forever Rumpole is both the perfect introduction<br />
to an indelible character and the ideal gift for his legion of<br />
fans.<br />

The Confidant<br />
A Novel<br />
Hélène Grémillon<br />
Translated by Alison Anderson<br />
Paris, 1975. Camille sifts through letters of condolence<br />
after her mother’s death when a strange, handwritten<br />
missive stops her short. At first she believes she received<br />
it by mistake. But then, a new letter arrives each week<br />
from a mysterious stranger, Louis, who seems intent on<br />
recounting the story of his first love, Annie. They were<br />
separated in the years before World War II when Annie<br />
befriended a wealthy, barren couple and fell victim to a<br />
merciless plot just as German troops arrive in Paris. But<br />
also awaiting Camille’s discovery is the other side of the<br />
story, which will call into question Annie’s innocence<br />
and reveal the devastating consequences of jealousy and<br />
revenge. As Camille reads on, she begins to realize that<br />
her own life may be the next chapter in this tragic story.<br />
Part historical drama, part suspense novel, The<br />
Confidant is a stunning debut novel that will captivate<br />
readers of Sarah’s Key, Suite Française, and The Guernsey<br />
Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society.<br />

From The Confidant:<br />
When I opened the first letters of condolence, my tears<br />
falling on my hands reminded me of Maman’s, and I let<br />
them fall, to see where they might have gone, the tears<br />
of this woman I had loved so much. [. . .] Every evening<br />
I divided the envelopes into two piles: on the right those<br />
that had the sender’s name on the envelope, and on the left<br />
those that didn’t. And all I did was open the pile on the<br />
left and jump immediately to the signature to see who had<br />
written to me and who I would have to thank. In the end I<br />
didn’t thank a lot of people and nobody held it against me.<br />
Death forgives such lapses of courtesy.<br />
The first letter from Louis was in the pile on the left.<br />
The envelope caught my attention even before I opened it:<br />
it was much thicker and heavier than the others. It was<br />
not the usual format for a letter of condolence.<br />
It was handwritten, several pages long, unsigned.<br />

Widely and enthusiastically acclaimed, this is the authorized,<br />
definitive biography of one of the most fascinating but troubled<br />
figures of the twentieth century by the nation’s leading Cold War<br />
historian. In the late 1940s, George F. Kennan—then a bright but,<br />
relatively obscure American diplomat—wrote the “long telegram”<br />
and the “X” article. These two documents laid out United States’<br />
strategy for “containing” the Soviet Union—a strategy which Kennan<br />
himself questioned in later years. Based on exclusive access to<br />
Kennan and his archives, this landmark history illuminates a life<br />
that both mirrored and shaped the century it spanned.<br />

Here, she tackles the best recognized and loved man of nineteenthcentury<br />
England: Charles Dickens, a literary leviathan whose own<br />
difficult path to greatness inspired the creation of classic novels<br />
such as Great Expectations, David Copperfield, Oliver Twist, and<br />
Hard Times. From his sensational public appearances to the obsessive<br />
love affair that led him to betray, deceive, and break with<br />
those closest to him, Charles Dickens is a triumph of the biographer’s<br />
craft, a comedy that turns to tragedy in a story worthy of<br />
Dickens’s own pen.<br />

Penelope Lively<br />
When an elderly woman is mugged on a London street, the<br />
event begins a series of mishaps that ripple across the lives of<br />
acquaintances and strangers alike. A marriage falls apart after an<br />
illicit love affair is revealed through an errant cell phone message;<br />
a financially strapped interior designer meets a business partner<br />
who might prove too good to be true; an old-guard historian tries<br />
to recapture his youth with an ill-conceived idea for a television<br />
miniseries; and a middle-aged central European immigrant learns<br />
English and reinvents his life with the assistance of some new<br />
friends.<br />
Through a richly conceived cast of characters, Penelope Lively<br />
explores the powerful role of chance in human affairs and deftly<br />
illustrates how our paths can be altered irrevocably by someone<br />
we will never even meet.<br />

Coco Chanel<br />
An Intimate Life<br />
Lisa Chaney<br />
The little black dress, sunglasses, costume jewelry, the pantsuit.<br />
Like the fashions she pioneered, Coco Chanel has never gone out<br />
of style. And while there are many biographies of the fashion icon,<br />
only Lisa Chaney’s restores Chanel to her rightful place as the<br />
charismatic figure who not only revolutionized women’s dress,<br />
but helped forge the very idea of a modern woman.<br />
Chaney chronicles Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel’s astonishing<br />
life—her rise from penniless orphan to Parisian grande dame, her<br />
liasions with some of the century’s most celebrated artists, her notorious<br />
war years, and her descent into drugs. Drawing on a range<br />
of never-before-seen documents—including letters from Arthur<br />
“Boy” Capel, the love of her life and the man behind her early<br />
business success—Chaney brilliantly disentangles the truth from<br />
Chanel’s own carefully cultivated myths.<br />
n Lisa Chaney spoke to Chanel’s last living friends and was the first ever<br />
to be given the correspondence of her great love and business partner<br />
n Chaney is the author of highly acclaimed biographies of J. M. Barrie<br />
and Elizabeth David<br />

lisa Chaney is a former Oxford lecturer and tutor. She<br />
has produced several acclaimed documentaries and culture<br />
shows for British television and radio, and writes for newspapers<br />
and magazines. She lives in York, England.

A Man of Parts<br />
A Novel<br />
David Lodge<br />
H. G. Wells, author of The Time Machine, was probably once the<br />
most famous writer in the world, “the man who invented tomorrow.”<br />
But as the Second World War draws to a close, he feels like<br />
yesterday’s man, deserted by readers and depressed by the collapse<br />
of his utopian dreams for humanity. He looks back on a life<br />
that was crowded with incident, books, and, as a believer in free<br />
love, an endless stream of women, including the gifted writer<br />
Rebecca West.<br />
Witty, sexy, and deeply moving, A Man of Parts will delight<br />
David Lodge’s long-standing fans and win over new readers with<br />
its fascinating take on one of the twentieth century’s most visionary<br />
writers.<br />
n Chosen as a Best Book of the Year by The Washington Post and the San<br />
Francisco Chronicle<br />
n Also available as an e-book<br />
DaviD loDge is the author of thirteen novels, a novella,<br />
and several works of literary criticism. He lives in Birmingham,<br />

Cabin<br />
Two Brothers, a Dream, and Five Acres in Maine<br />
Lou Ureneck<br />
Inspired by Lou Ureneck’s popular New York Times blog, “From<br />
the Ground Up,” Cabin is a moving and resonant account of two<br />
brothers building their way to the far end of middle age, and of<br />
the need to root oneself in a place one can call home. City bound<br />
for a decade, attempting to recover from a string of personal<br />
setbacks, and needing a project that would put him back in life’s<br />
good graces, Ureneck decided to build a small cabin in the hills of<br />
western Maine with his younger brother, Paul. Cabin is filled with<br />
insights into the richness and complexity of family relationships,<br />
the satisfaction of physical labor, and the pleasure and emotional<br />
healing that comes from being in nature.<br />

“ Riveting . . . a double-barreled salvo that<br />

Times Book Review<br />
Verdi’s Shakespeare<br />
Men of the Theater<br />
Garry Wills<br />
This dazzling study of the three operas that Giuseppe Verdi<br />
adapted from Shakespeare’s plays takes readers on a wonderfully<br />
engaging journey through opera, music, literature, history, and<br />
the nature of genius. Verdi’s Shakespeare explores the writing<br />
and staging of Macbetto (Macbeth), Otello (Othello), and Falstaff,<br />
operas by Verdi, an Italian composer who could not read a word of<br />
English but who adored Shakespeare. Delving into the fast-paced<br />
worlds of these men and the hands-on life of the stage that at once<br />
challenged them and gave flight to their brilliance, Wills, in his<br />
inimitable way, illuminates the birth of artistic creation.<br />
n A Booklist Editor’s Choice Pick<br />

—Booklist (starred review)<br />
“ Wonderfully illuminating. . . . No lover of<br />

Socrates<br />
A Man for Our Times<br />
Paul Johnson<br />
As Plutarch observed, Socrates “was the first person to demonstrate<br />
that life is open to philosophy at all times, in every part,<br />
among all kinds of people, and in every experience and activity.”<br />
This brilliant biography of Socrates by renowned historian Paul<br />
Johnson situates the father of philosophy in the fifth-century bc<br />
Athens that he loved, delving into the geopolitics of the time, his<br />
service as a soldier, his wide range of acquaintances, and the civic<br />
unrest that led to Socrates’ trial and death. A fresh and fascinating<br />
portrait of the thinker who believed questioning and education<br />
were the keys to a virtuous life, this book proves that Socrates is<br />
as relevant as ever.<br />

The Double Death of<br />
Quincas Water-Bray<br />
Translated by Gregory Rabassa<br />
Introduction by Rivka Galchen<br />
Widely considered the greatest work by the foremost Brazilian<br />
author of the twentieth century, The Double Death of Quincas<br />
Water-Bray comes to <strong>Penguin</strong> Classics in a new translation by<br />
the dean of Portuguese-language translators, Gregory Rabassa.<br />
It tells the story of Joaquim Soares da Cunha, who drops dead<br />
after he abandons his life of upstanding citizenship to assume<br />
the identity of Quincas Water-Bray, a “champion drunk” and<br />
bum who is whisked along on a postmortem journey that climaxes<br />
in his loss at sea.<br />
The Discovery of<br />
America by the Turks<br />
Translated by Gregory Rabassa<br />
Foreword by José Saramago<br />
Published here for the first time in English in a brilliant translation<br />
by the peerless Gregory Rabassa, The Discovery of America<br />
by the Turks is a whimsical Brazilian take on The Taming of<br />
the Shrew that will remind readers why Jorge Amado is to<br />
Portuguese-American literature what Jorge Luis Borges is to<br />
Spanish-American literature. It follows the adventures of two<br />
Arab immigrants—“Turks,” as Brazilians call them—who arrive<br />
in the rough Brazilian frontier in 1903 and become involved in a<br />
merchant’s farcical attempt to marry off his shrew of a daughter.<br />
Praise for The Double Death of Quincas<br />
Water-Bray:<br />
“ Swift, funny, and occasionally even slapstick.”<br />
—Rivka Galchen, from the Introduction<br />
Praise for The Discovery of America by the Turks:<br />
“ Delightful . . . A wonder of the art of<br />

values, but of those that underpin Western civilization itself.<br />

JOHN STEINBECK<br />
The Portable<br />
Steinbeck<br />
Edited by Pascal Covici, Jr.<br />
Introduction by Susan Shillinglaw<br />
It would be impossible to overstate John Steinbeck’s<br />
enduring influence on American letters. Profuse with a<br />
richness of language, sly humor, and empathy for even<br />
his most flawed characters, Steinbeck’s books are still<br />
widely read and deeply relevant today.<br />
The Portable Steinbeck is a grand sampling of his<br />
most important and popular works. Here are the complete<br />
novels Of Mice and Men and The Red Pony, together<br />
with self-contained excerpts from several longer<br />
novels, the text of his Nobel Prize acceptance speech,<br />
and a fascinating introduction by Pascal Covici, Jr., son<br />
of Steinbeck’s longtime editor.<br />
Travels with Charley<br />
in Search of America<br />
Introduction by Jay Parini<br />
At age fifty-eight, John Steinbeck and his poodle,<br />
Charley, embarked on a journey across America. This<br />
chronicle of their trip meanders from small towns to<br />
growing cities to glorious wilderness oases. Still evocative<br />
and awe-inspiring after fifty years, Travels with<br />
Charley in Search of America provides an intimate look<br />
at one of America’s most beloved writers in the later<br />
years of his life—a self-portrait of a man who never<br />
wrote an explicit autobiography. Written during a time<br />
of upheaval and racial tension in the South—which<br />
Steinbeck witnessed firsthand—Travels with Charley<br />
is a stunning evocation of America on the eve of a tumultuous<br />
decade.<br />
“ A writer who does not passionately<br />
believe in the perfectibility of<br />
man has no dedication nor any<br />
membership in literature.”<br />
—John Steinbeck, from his<br />
Nobel Prize acceptance speech<br />
John steinBeCk (1902–1968) was born in Salinas, California,<br />
and died in New York City.<br />

On Being Different<br />
What It Means To Be a Homosexual<br />
Merle Miller<br />
Foreword by Dan Savage<br />
Afterword by Charles Kaiser<br />
Originally published in 1971, Merle Miller’s On Being Different is<br />
a pioneering and thought-provoking book about being homosexual<br />
in the United States. Just two years after the Stonewall riots,<br />
Miller wrote a poignant essay for the New York Times Magazine<br />
entitled “What It Means To Be a Homosexual” in response to a<br />
homophobic article published in Harper’s Magazine. Described as<br />
“the most widely read and discussed essay of the decade,” it carried<br />
the seed that would blossom into On Being Different—one of<br />
the earliest memoirs to affirm the importance of coming out.<br />

Something to<br />
Remember Me By<br />
Three Tales<br />
Saul Bellow<br />
Introduction by Nicole Krauss<br />
While Saul Bellow is known best for his longer fiction in awardwinning<br />
novels such as The Adventures of Augie March and<br />
Herzog, Something to Remember Me By will draw new readers to<br />
Bellow as it showcases his extraordinary gift for creating memorable<br />
characters within a smaller canvas.<br />
The loss of a ring in A Theft helps an oft-married woman understand<br />
her own wisdom and capacity for love. In The Bellarosa<br />
Connection, Harry Fonstein has escaped from Nazi brutality<br />
with the help of an underground organization masterminded by<br />
the legendary Broadway impresario Billy Rose. In the title story,<br />
seventeen-year-old Louie—whose mother is dying of cancer—<br />
strays far from home and finds not solace but humiliation and,<br />
ultimately, the blessing of his father’s wrath.<br />
n Includes a foreword by the author<br />
n Bellow was awarded both the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the Nobel<br />
Prize in Literature in the same year (1976)<br />
n He is the only author to have received three National Book Awards and<br />
was awarded their lifetime achievement award<br />
saul BelloW (1915–2005) was the author of nearly twenty<br />
works of literature, including Seize the Day, The Adventures of Augie<br />
March, The Victim, Herzog, and Humboldt’s Gift. He taught at the<br />

Tomorrow Is Now<br />
Eleanor Roosevelt<br />
Introduction by Allida Black<br />
Foreword by Bill Clinton<br />
As relevant and influential now as it was in 1962, Tomorrow Is<br />
Now is Eleanor Roosevelt’s manifesto and her final effort to move<br />
America toward the community she hoped it would become. In<br />
bold, blunt prose, the most influential First Lady in American<br />
history traces the country’s struggle to embrace democracy and<br />
presents her declaration against fear, timidity, complacency, and<br />
national arrogance. An open, unrestrained look into her mind<br />
and heart as well as a clarion call to action, Tomorrow Is Now is<br />
the work Eleanor Roosevelt willed herself to stay alive to finish<br />
writing. For this edition, former U.S. President Bill Clinton<br />
contributes a new foreword and Roosevelt historian Allida Black<br />

Tottel’s Miscellany<br />
Songs and Sonnets of Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey,<br />
Sir Thomas Wyatt, and Others<br />
Edited with an Introduction and Notes by Amanda Holton<br />
and Tom MacFaul<br />
Songs and Sonnets (1557), the first printed anthology of English<br />
poetry, was immensely influential in Tudor England and inspired<br />
many major Elizabethan writers, including Shakespeare. Collected<br />
by pioneering publisher Richard Tottel, it brought poems<br />
of the aristocracy—verses of friendship, war, politics, death, and<br />
love—into common readership for the first time. The major poets<br />
of King Henry VIII’s court, Sir Thomas Wyatt and Henry Howard,<br />
Earl of Surrey, were first printed in the volume. Wyatt’s intimate<br />
poem about lost love that begins, “They flee from me, that sometime<br />
did me seek,” and Surrey’s passionate sonnet “Complaint of<br />
a lover rebuked” are joined here by a range of intriguingly anonymous<br />
poems from the Tudor era that are both moral and erotic,<br />
intimate and universal.<br />

The Spanish Tragedy, Hamlet, Antonio’s Revenge,<br />
The Tragedy of Hoffman, The Revenger’s Tragedy<br />
Henry Chettle, Thomas Kyd,<br />
John Marston, Thomas Middleton,<br />
and William Shakespeare<br />
Edited with an Introduction and Notes by Emma Smith<br />
As the Elizabethan era gave way to the reign of James I, England<br />
grappled with corruption within the royal court and widespread<br />
religious anxiety. Dramatists responded with morally complex<br />
plays of dark wit and violent spectacle, exploring the nature of<br />
death, the abuse of power, and vigilante justice. This anthology<br />
presents five crucial tragedies of the era collected together for<br />
the first time, including Shakespeare’s 1603 version of Hamlet<br />
and Middleton’s The Revenger’s Tragedy, a ferocious satire that<br />
reflects the mounting disillusionment of the age.<br />
The introduction by Shakespeare scholar Emma Smith explores<br />
the political and religious climate behind the plays, as well as<br />
their dramatic conventions.<br />
n First time in <strong>Penguin</strong> Classics<br />
n Great course adoption potential—an excellent student edition<br />

Philosophical writings on “the good life”<br />
by the great Roman orator, in a vital new<br />
translation<br />
On Living and Dying Well<br />
Marcus Tullius Cicero<br />
Translated with an Introduction and Notes by Thomas Habinek<br />
In the first century bc, Marcus Tullius Cicero, Roman orator,<br />
statesman, and defender of republican values, created these philosophical<br />
treatises on such diverse and trenchant topics as friendship,<br />
religion, death, fate, and scientific inquiry. This lucid and<br />
lively new translation renders the great Roman’s writings accessible<br />
to modern readers as never before. Cicero was a pragmatist at<br />
heart, but his philosophies were frequently personal and ethical,<br />
drawn not from abstract reasoning but from careful observation<br />
of the world. The resulting work reminds us of the importance of<br />
social ties, the question of free will, and the justification of creative<br />
endeavor.<br />
n New translation<br />
n Includes entirely new notes relating the selections to broader themes of literature,<br />
history, and philosophy<br />
n The second book in a three-volume series updating Cicero’s works<br />
maRCus tullius CiCeRo (106–43 BC) produced a<br />
large number of works on the theory and practice of rhetoric, on religion,<br />
and on moral and political philosophy before being put to death.<br />

Born Wicked<br />
The Cahill Witch Chronicles: Book One<br />
Jessica Spotswood<br />
Everybody knows Cate Cahill and her sisters are eccentric. Too<br />
pretty, too reclusive, and far too educated for their own good.<br />
But the truth is even worse: They’re witches. And if their secret<br />
is discovered by the priests of the Brotherhood, it would mean an<br />
asylum, a prison ship—or an early grave.<br />
Then Cate finds her mother’s diary and uncovers a secret that<br />
could spell her family’s destruction. Desperate to find alternatives<br />
to their fate, Cate starts scouring banned books and questioning<br />
rebellious new friends, all while juggling tea parties, shocking<br />
marriage proposals, and a forbidden romance with the completely<br />
unsuitable Finn Belastra. But if what her mother wrote is true, the<br />
Cahill girls aren’t safe—not even from each other.<br />
n Visit jessicaspotswood.com and facebook.com/cahillwitchchronicles<br />
n Also available as an e-book<br />
JessiCa sPotsWooD lives in Washington, D.C., with<br />
her playwright husband and a cuddly cat named Monkey. She’s<br />
never happier than when she’s immersed in a good story, and<br />
swoony kissing scenes are her favorite.
