Interpreter of Maladies
Navigating between the Indian traditions they've inherited and the baffling new world, the characters in Jhumpa Lahiri's elegant, touching stories seek love beyond the barriers of culture and generations. But Mr. Kapasi has problems enough of his own; in addition to his regular job working as an interpreter for a doctor who does not speak his patients' language, he also drives tourists to local sites of interest. In that single line Jhumpa Lahiri sums up a universal experience, one that applies to all who have grown up, left home, fallen in or out of love, and, above all, experienced what it means to be a foreigner, even within one's own family. Frequently finding themselves in Cambridge, Mass., or similar but unnamed Eastern seaboard university towns, Lahiri's characters suffer on an intimate level the dislocation and disruption brought on by India's tumultuous political history. The two things that sustain her, as the little boy she looks after every afternoon notices, are aerograms from homeAwritten by family members who so deeply misunderstand the nature of her life that they envy herAand the fresh fish she buys to remind her of Calcutta. Delusions of grandeur and lament for what she's lostA"such comforts you cannot even dream them"Agive her an odd, Chekhovian charm but ultimately do not convince her bourgeois audience that she is a desirable fixture in their up-and-coming property.

The Things They Carried
A classic work of American literature that has not stopped changing minds and lives since it burst onto the literary scene, The Things They Carried is a ground-breaking meditation on war, memory, imagination, and the redemptive power of storytelling. A finalist for both the 1990 Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award, The Things They Carried marks a subtle but definitive line of demarcation between Tim O'Brien's earlier works about Vietnam, the memoir If I Die in a Combat Zone and the fictional Going After Cacciato , and this sly, almost hallucinatory book that is neither memoir nor novel nor collection of short stories but rather an artful combination of all three. He never killed a man as "Tim" does in "The Man I Killed," and unlike Tim in "Ambush," he has no daughter named Kathleen. But the truth of "On the Rainy River" lies not in facts but in the genuineness of the experience it depicts: both Tims went to a war they didn't believe in; both considered themselves cowards for doing so. Every story in The Things They Carried speaks another truth that Tim O'Brien learned in Vietnam; it is this blurred line between truth and reality, fact and fiction, that makes his book unforgettable.
Reviews
"The girl acclimates to the war, and soon she is going out on patrol--not with the ordinary infantry soldiers, but during the night with the Green Berets. Perhaps the moral is that some people are made for war, and it’s never who you’d suspect. Before one reads “Sweetheart of Song Tra Bong” one has been primed by a chapter entitled “How to Tell a True War Story,” which tells one that truth and falsehood aren’t so clear in the bizarre world of war. One early chapter describes his near attempt at draft dodging, and another talks of his time stationed at the rear after being injured. This can be seen in the title chapter “The Things They Carried,” which describes the many things carried by an infantry soldier—both the physical items they carried on patrol and the psychological and emotional things they carried after the war."
"PERHAPS BY 11TH GRADE all USA and even other students should read this book."
"I was fortunate not to get drafted in the 60's and experience Vietnam Nam as a soldier."
"Interesting and a good read."
"Should have spent more time on why things were that way but still a good read."
"A must read... great first person tale of V.N."
"Highly recommend, 4 stars because it is quite gruesome at times so readers should be aware of that."
"A brillant piece of writing and a totally orginal story prespective."

Reviews
"Weighing in at 672 pages, Brandon Sanderson's first short fiction collection not only pulls together various short stories and novellas from across his Cosmere, but organizes them by Shardworlds, complete with essays and illustrations on each. The collection opens with a pair of stories set in the world of Elantris, with “The Emperor's Soul” serving as a standalone tale, and “The Hope of Elantris” taking place following the original novel. Written as a pulp adventure tale, what really makes it work is all the footnotes from the fictional editor who is forced to publish such nonsense. The self-professed crown jewel of the collection, "Edgedancer," is an all-new Stormlight Archive novella that I am pleased to say was everything I was looking for. Each section of the book has an illustration of the solar system in which it takes place, with the character of Khriss (who has written the Ars Arcanum at the end of each novel) providing a short essay on the world."
"I had already read every entry here with the exception of the new Stormlight Archive story Edgedancer. The main character of it is Lift, who you will have met in one of the interludes of Words of Radiance. Helping curb my appetite for Oathbringer along was worth the price of admission. If you have any questions on my review or the contents of the novel please post me a comment."
"The culmination of the work, Edgedancer, was a great look into other things happening on Roshar and Lift is a very enjoyable character."
"Thank you Brandon for another wonderful collection of stories."
"Brandon Sanderson is today's most creative and talented contemporary fantasy writer delivering new and mind blowing stories year after year!"
"I personally love Brandon Sanderson's writing style and this short novella filled the void while I wait with bated breath for the release of Oathbringer."
"So after reading the other books in the cosmere collection I couldn't see any obvious connections other than the various magic systems that seemed to have some relation to each other."
"Great compilation of stories from all the realms of the Cosmere."

The Bazaar of Bad Dreams: Stories
Stories include: -Mile 81. -Premium Harmony. -Batman and Robin Have an Altercation. -The Dune. -Bad Little Kid. -A Death. -The Bone Church. -Morality. -Afterlife. -Ur. -Herman Wouk Is Still Alive. -Under the Weather. -Blockade Billy. -Mister Yummy. -Tommy. -The Little Green God of Agony. -Cookie Jar. -That Bus Is Another World. -Obits. -Drunken Fireworks. -Summer Thunder. “Renowned author King’s impressive latest collection wraps 20 stories and poems in fascinating commentary…the stories themselves are meditations on mortality, destiny, and regret, all of which showcase King’s talent for exploring the human condition…this introspective collection, like many of King’s most powerful works, draws on the deepest emotions: love, grief, fear and hope.” ( Publishers Weekly, STARRED review ). "A gathering of short stories by an ascended master of the form... This collection speaks to King's considerable abilities as a writer of genre fiction who manages to expand and improve the genre as he works; certainly no one has invested ordinary reality and ordinary objects with as much creepiness as King... Best of all, lifting the curtain, King prefaces the stories with notes about how they came about. “[King]has always had a wicked (in more ways than one) sense of humor, too, and it'soften on display along with the scary stuff in his new short story collection, THE BAZAAR OF BAD DREAMS…One of the bonuses of Bazaar is that each story is preceded by a note from the author about its genesis… If you're looking for King's paranormal horror side, though, Bazaar has plenty to satisfy you…And if you want King in full funny tall-tale mode, head for Drunken Fireworks .It's the hilarious story of how its narrator, a Maine native named Alden who lives with his mother in a modest cabin on the ‘town side’ of Abenaki Lake,gets into an ever-escalating Fourth of July arms race with a rich guy on the other shore who's rumored to be ‘connected,’ if you know what I mean. “The best stories in THE BAZAAR OF BAD DREAMS are the ones that read like they meant something to King... A Death, which bears the easy, plaintive prose of Kent Haruf, follows a sheriff preparing to go through with the hanging of a man who may have been falsely convicted of murder. His newest short story collection, THE BAZAAR OF BAD DREAMS, continues his tradition of compulsively readable short stories, novellas and narrative poems that will thrill fans looking for scares, surprise critics that write him off as a ‘genre’ author and inform artists about his personal creative process…[the] introductions are a fascinating look into the mind of one of the most popular writers in the world, and much like his writers’ manual “On Writing,” he provides readers with concise and insightful observations about the art of the written word…remarkably resonant… The last story of the collection, ‘Summer Thunder,’ takes the reader through the last days of two survivors of a worldwide nuclear holocaust… the last lines of the story are some of the most emotionally powerful sentences Mr. King has ever committed to paper — they will leave readers weepy, uplifted and satisfied…With THE BAZAAR OF BAD DREAMS, Stephen King has achieved something rare: a short story collection with no weak spots. Not surprisingly, most are classic King page-turners, but the choicest finds in this bazaar are the stories behind the stories or, more correctly, in front of them. You don't need to be a writer — or a King fan — to find these fascinating.Anyone who's ever wondered about the creative process will find the author's path to each story revelatory…Each story is compelling in its own way,though I'm guessing each reader will have favorites and it's doubtful that any two lists will be the same.” ( Cathy Jakicic, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel ). “King fans are in for another in a long line of treats…THE BAZAAR OF BAD DREAMS provides a tasty sampler that, like his other short story collections, showcases the master’s array of talents.” ( John Holyoke, Bangor Daily News ).
Reviews
"Unlike past collections, though, these stories more often reveal the monstrosity within the human soul, rather than any outside ghoul. One of his stories, "Ur" contemplates the possibility of alternate realities in a vein similar to his novel 11/22/63, and also throws in a few allusions to his Dark Tower series, which personally thrilled me. Another story, "Afterlife," features a man who suffers a slow, painful death from cancer, but finds himself in a vicious ouroboro, repeating the mistakes of the past in slightly new ways, but with the same ultimate result. My personal favorite among these stories, however, is "The Dune," featuring a state supreme court judge whose attorney discovers the secret of the judge's childhood haunt."
"It’s a nice bonus knowing the mind of the writer as he “finds the handle to round out the cup.”. On the whole, Bazaar of bad Dreams was an excellent read for this Constant Reader. King just gets better with each decade and although some of his endings and character deaths can truly frustrate and upset me (a la The Dark Tower, Duma Key, Cell, The Stand), I still have much respect and affection for the way the author has engaged and entranced me with his writing."
"Some stories are absolutely great and classic King..."Dune" "Obits"...others seem in his newer vein...."Summer Thunder"."
"As all Stephen King books He leaves you wanting to read page after page."
"It is always great to read King."

All the Light We Cannot See: A Novel
WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE From the highly acclaimed, multiple award-winning Anthony Doerr, the beautiful, stunningly ambitious instant New York Times bestseller about a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to survive the devastation of World War II. Ten years in the writing, a National Book Award finalist, All the Light We Cannot See is a magnificent, deeply moving novel from a writer “whose sentences never fail to thrill” ( Los Angeles Times ). Yes, there is fear and fighting and disappearance and death, but the author’s focus is on the interior lives of his two characters. Never mind that their paths don’t cross until very late in the novel, this is not a book you read for plot (although there is a wonderful, mysterious subplot about a stolen gem). It is through their individual and intertwined tales that Doerr masterfully and knowledgeably re-creates the deprived civilian conditions of war-torn France and the strictly controlled lives of the military occupiers.High-Demand Backstory: A multipronged marketing campaign will make the author’s many fans aware of his newest book, and extensive review coverage is bound to enlist many new fans.
Reviews
"It has been a while since I have found a book that I wanted to read slowly so that I could soak in every detail in hopes that the last page seems to never come. When reading the synopsis of this novel, I never imagined that I would feel so connected to a book where one of the main characters is blind and the other a brilliant young German orphan who was chosen to attend a brutal military academy under Hitler's power using his innate engineering skills. I was invited into the pages and could not only imagine the atmosphere, but all of my senses were collectively enticed from the very first page until the last. In most well-written books you get of a sense of what the characters look like and follow them throughout the book almost as if you are on a voyage, but with this novel, I could imagine what it was like to be in Marie-Laure's shoes."
"On the other hand, as the author describes it, “It’s also a metaphorical suggestion that there are countless invisible stories still buried within World War II.” Add in a newly blinded French girl who is forced to leave her familiar surroundings, and you’ll soon find yourself in literary heaven. There are lessons about the brain, sitting inside the darkness of our skull, interpreting light; there are lessons about coal having been plants living millions of years ago, absorbing light, now buried in darkness; lessons about light waves that we cannot see—all applicable as the story unfolds. The author also includes connections to the song Clair de Lune, the book 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA, and a fictional story about a priceless diamond called the Sea of Flames, whose owner “so long as he keeps it, the keeper of the stone will live forever.”. I cannot proclaim loud enough how much this book means to me; I have been left awe-inspired."
"“All the Light We Cannot See” is a World War II story told from the experiences of two children; each gifted in their own way."

Best Social Customs & Traditions

Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil
Berendt skillfully interweaves a hugely entertaining first-person account of life in this isolated remnant of the Old South with the unpredictable twists and turns of a landmark murder case. It is a spellbinding story peopled by a gallery of remarkable characters: the well-bred society ladies of the Married Woman's Card Club; the turbulent young redneck gigolo; the hapless recluse who owns a bottle of poison so powerful it could kill every man, woman, and child in Savannah; the aging and profane Southern belle who is the "soul of pampered self-absorption"; the uproariously funny black drag queen; the acerbic and arrogant antiques dealer; the sweet-talking, piano-playing con artist; young blacks dancing the minuet at the black debutante ball; and Minerva, the voodoo priestess who works her magic in the graveyard at midnight. John Berendt's Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil has been heralded as a "lyrical work of nonfiction," and the book's extremely graceful prose depictions of some of Savannah, Georgia's most colorful eccentrics--remarkable characters who could have once prospered in a William Faulkner novel or Eudora Welty short story--were certainly a critical factor in its tremendous success. The book is also about the wealthy international antiques dealer Jim Williams, who played an active role in the historic city's restoration--and would also be tried four times for the 1981 shooting death of 21-year-old Danny Handsford, his high-energy, self-destructive house helper.
Reviews
"I loved this book so much that I made my husband go with me to Savannah to visit the city and see the bird girl statue. John Berendt did a wonderful job in writing this book and I wish he would do another one."
"Finally read this book."
"This story held my interest in each and every character contributing their unique personality, and in the end leaving their spirit, on this place."
"I first loved the movie, then I loved the city and finally I overcame my apprehensions that after that the book would not be that great."
"What a fun, quirky group of characters set in the beautiful Savannah, Ga backdrop."
"I am glad that I read this book since people in Savannah made references to this book, However, I found a couple of characters that didn't relate much to the main story and was bored reading about them."
"The thing is it's told in such a interesting manner that you're deep into it before you realize you're learning a LOT of Savannah culture and history while being riotously entertained!"
"This book kind of draws you in with it's very unusual characters (which there are many) and the way it's written - it casts its own spell on the reader."

Anything Is Possible: A Novel
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • An unforgettable cast of small-town characters copes with love and loss in this new work of fiction by #1 bestselling author and Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout. A Washington Post and New York Times Notable Book • One of USA Today ’s top 10 books of the year Recalling Olive Kitteridge in its richness, structure, and complexity, Anything Is Possible explores the whole range of human emotion through the intimate dramas of people struggling to understand themselves and others. The janitor at the local school has his faith tested in an encounter with an isolated man he has come to help; a grown daughter longs for mother love even as she comes to accept her mother’s happiness in a foreign country; and the adult Lucy Barton (the heroine of My Name Is Lucy Barton, the author’s celebrated New York Times bestseller) returns to visit her siblings after seventeen years of absence. Reverberating with the deep bonds of family, and the hope that comes with reconciliation, Anything Is Possible again underscores Elizabeth Strout’s place as one of America’s most respected and cherished authors. This is a generous, wry book about everyday lives, and Strout crawls so far inside her characters you feel you inhabit them. “These stories return Strout to the core of what she does more magnanimously than anyone else.” — The Washington Post. This is a generous, wry book about everyday lives, and Strout crawls so far inside her characters you feel you inhabit them. Try reading it without tears, or wonder.” — USA Today (four stars) “Readers who loved My Name Is Lucy Barton . She paints cumulative portraits of the heartache and soul of small-town America by giving each of her characters a turn under her sympathetic spotlight.” —NPR. “These stories return Strout to the core of what she does more magnanimously than anyone else, which is to render quiet portraits of the indignities and disappointments of normal life, and the moments of grace and kindness we are gifted in response. “In this wise and accomplished book, pain and healing exist in perpetual dependence, like feuding siblings.” — The Wall Street Journal. “Neither novel nor linked story collection strikes me as adequate terms to describe this book’s ingenious structure. Strout’s sentence style fits these Midwestern folks and tales: straightforward while also seeming effortlessly lyrical, seeded both with humor and bitterness like many of our days.” —Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. “Full of searing insight into the darkest corners of the human spirit . With assuredness, compassion and utmost grace, her words and characters remind us that in life anything is actually possible.” — San Francisco Chronicle. “While we recommend everything by the Pulitzer Prize-winning writer—like, say her recent book My Name Is Lucy Barton —this novel, which explores life’s complexities through interconnected stores, stands on its own. “If you miss the charmingly eccentric and completely relatable characters from Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout’s best-selling My Name Is Lucy Barton, you’ll be happily reunited with them in Strout’s smart and soulful Anything Is Possible. “Strout pierces the inner worlds of these characters’ most private behaviors, illuminating the emotional conflicts and pure joy of being human, of finding oneself in the search for the American dream.” — NYLON. Elizabeth Strout is the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Olive Kitteridge; the #1 New York Times bestseller My Name Is Lucy Barton;The Burgess Boys, a New York Times bestseller; Abide with Me, a national bestseller and Book Sense pick; and Amy and Isabelle, which won the Los Angeles Times Art Seidenbaum Award for First Fiction and the Chicago Tribune Heartland Prize.

"I kept reading hoping something would happen or at least Strout would tie all the unhappy, aimless stories together at some point. I felt the entire town was suffering from post traumatic sexual abuse and an withholding of feeling that bordered on psychotic."
"Glorious writing!"
"Very good novel and service from seller."
"Realistic touching dialogue makes you feel as though you are overhearing a real conversation."
"Incredible insights, how Strout can imagine male/female young/old rich/poor people is just amazing."
"Strout has done it again, with these character vignettes that weave together as a novel."
"Wonderful stories with descriptions of people's extreme pain, hunger, loss, shame, love, longing, peace and joy."

The Short Novels of John Steinbeck: (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)
A Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition of Steinbeck's brilliant short novels Collected here for the first time in a deluxe paperback volume are six of John Steinbeck's most widely read and beloved novels. "Steinbeck shaped a geography of conscience."
Reviews
"Excellent collection!"
"The settings are interesting and watching the thinking of the various characters is almost hypnotic to me."
"Very well transcribed for Kindle: almost no typo errors and page formatting is clean and consistent."
"This collection of Steinbeck's shorter works was a real breath of fresh air from today's standard fare of angst filled, post-apocalyptic teens or the sad reminiscence of the post-war novel that is all the rage among the literary set of late. I read most of these works some 15-20 years ago, when the stories and the characters and the lessons where oddly entertaining and cautiously educational to a small town teen trying to make sense of the wide world all around."
"Love this collection of books!"
"The most interesting aspect of these stories for me were how they reminded me of Classical Greek Tragedy -- that is they are about how people exercise their freedom of choice and express their dignity within the circumstances of their lives over which they have no control."
"be careful with it in the sun."
"good collection of books for someone just starting out being interested in reading as adult of teenager and wanting to follow a specific author."

"Interpreter of Maladies. by Jhumpa Lahiri. Rating: ***** (5 stars). Book Length: 209 pages. Genre: Indian Fiction, Fiction, Litterature, Short Stories. Interpreter of Maladies is a collection of short stories written by Jhumpa Lahiri. Although some stories are placed directly in India and focus more on the complexity within the Indian culture. I felt appreciation for community and togetherness that, as the author also illustrated, just doesn't exist in America."
"I resented the time I spent driving home from work because it was time taken away from reading this book."
"By using the short story cycle, Lahiri is able to present multiple points of view and various time periods to bring readers a terrificly bittersweet taste of the collective immigrant experience (including issues that deal with affairs, arranged marriage, loneliness and isolation etc.)."
"The various stories are well crafted but for some reason I could not get 'into' them."
"This one is by far Lahiri's best book."
