The US debut from the author of Man Booker Prize Finalist All That Man Is James is a man with a checkered past--sporadic entrepreneur, one-time film producer, almost a dot-com millionaire--now alone in a flat in Bloomsbury, running a shady horse-racing-tips operation. Katherine is a manager at a luxury hotel, a job she'd intended to leave years ago, and is separated from her husband. The novel unfolds in 2006, at the end of the money-for-nothing years, as a chance meeting leads to an awkward tryst and James tries to make sense of a relationship where "no" means "maybe" and a "yes" can never be taken for granted. David Szalay builds a novel of immense resonance as he cycles though perspectives that add layers of depth to the hesitations, missteps, and tensions as James tries to win Katherine. James's other pursuit is money, and Spring follows his investments and schemes, from a half share in a thoroughbred to a suit-and-tie day job he's taken to pay the bills. Spring is a sharply tuned novel so nuanced and precise in its psychology that it establishes Szalay as a major talent.

Three stories. One revolution. Eighteen days in Egypt.Sami is no revolutionary. When the Arab Spring breaks out in 2011, he's busy finishing school in Cairo and hiding his relationship with an American woman from his conservative mother, Suad. It's a task that's becoming impossible as events take a catastrophic turn. But Suad won't be fooled--her son has been distant and she knows it's not about politics. Far away in the Nile Delta, she spends her days tending obsessively to her lemon grove, which is quickly becoming her last vestige of control. The only child who remains by her side is her daughter, but as she, too, gets involved with the protests, Suad realizes it won't last for long.There's one person who knows exactly what's going on in the family, and she wishes she didn't. The maid, Jamila, already has too much to worry about as a refugee who's lobbying for resettlement, expecting a baby, and looking for her missing husband. All she wants is stability, and that her dreams won't be thwarted by the unrest sweeping a city she doesn't belong to--a city that doesn't even want her there.As the country revolts against the regime it has always known, Jamila, Sami, and Suad find themselves caught in the whirlwind as they examine their own life choices and, in some cases, deal with the inevitable heartbreak that follows when revolution is not always what it seems.

As King of the Brollachan, he can upholds all the promises he has made but its not as easy as it feels. You can say one thing and yet in the end it may turn out much more work and many more promises than planned. But Croi's not alone, he has Gwyn at his side when he needs it most and he makes unique friends and allies on the first step to changing a whole court. Only one person is worried about the outcome, and not because Gwyn doesn't trust that Croi can handle it, but because he doesn't believe that Mab has the best intentions overall. These courts are dangerous and Madoc fears them for a reason and that fear has just made them angrier and all the more dangerous.
Lyrical poem accompanied by dreamy, sun-drenched illustrations in a children's picure book or handsome coffee table book. Poem is calming and comforting to young and old alike."The days are getting warmer, but there's still a faint chillRain has painted emerald every borough, tree and hill Petals waft like snowflakes onto arbors and frondsTadpoles wriggle mightily in shady, lazy ponds Daffodils poke their heads up, then gaze at their feetTulips stand in glory and won't admit defeat Ducks quack their welcome to their newly hatched chicksEgret, cormorant and swan add their chorus to the mix Fawns take their first steps under Doe's watchful eyeFledglings spread their wings and learn how to fly The sweet smell of hyacinth competes with fresh mown lawnToo soon, daylight hours will lengthen and Spring will have gone."
