She interviews prominent local figures, describes motels, diners, a deserted reptile farm, a visit with Walker Percy, a ladies' brunch at the Mississippi Broadcasters' Convention. Here is one such draft that traces a road trip she took with her husband, John Gregory Dunne, in June 1970, through Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama.

For Michael and Nancy, the carefree days of innocence were drawing to an end, bringing the hardest test of their love for each other. But Akbar’s novel is much more than timely: it succeeds both as social criticism and as a gripping narrative, smoothly and movingly told. Leila, Prayaag Akbar’s debut novel and the first book to be published by Simon & Schuster India, is a dystopian work that speaks directly to the ongoing changes in India’s politics and society. Speculative fiction in general is an underdeveloped area of Indian writing in English. It is no surprise that the rapid growth of militant Hindu nationalism is starting to provoke a similar interest in India. new novels by Omar El Akkad and Mohsin Hamid point to the dystopias that will result from a failure to address our current problems.

Everest (2015)Ĭlarke plays guide Rob Hall of Adventure consultants, and brought a life to this character that I didn’t quite get from Into Thin Air. In my opinion though, it was lead actor Jason Clarke who steals the show. Starring Josh Brolin, Jake Gyllenhaal, Robin Wright, Sam Worthington, and Keira Knightley, this film packs some serious star power. I don’t know how I missed this one in the theater, but I was excited to see the events of the 1996 Everest disaster recounted on the silver screen. This week, the movie Everest was released on DVD, Blu-ray, and digital download. Krakauers account of what happened on the mountain makes for a real page turner, so much so, that I read the entire book in one day.

The Shadowhunters would like to know.Įxotic and gritty, exhilarating and utterly gripping, Cassandra Clare’s ferociously entertaining fantasy takes readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end. City of Bones was popular at the time of release, reaching 8 on the New York Times Best Seller list (Children's books) in April 2007. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace’s world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. It’s also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. This is Clary’s first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It’s hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing-not even a smear of blood-to show that a boy has died.

Easy read? Don’t you mean wonderfully sophisticated and deeply moving and thought-provoking?’ But then” – she lights up – “a huge part of me is like… ‘yes!’” “I see that the post says, like, ‘this was such an easy read!’,” the Pineapple Street author tells me, before jokingly lowering her voice into a slightly threatening tone. Jenny Jackson’s novel has just come out and everyone is tagging her on Instagram. |
