This memoir describes Childers' coming-of-age in the 1960s Bronx, her life with 6 siblings, her mother's intermittent struggles and surrender to their environment.

A Duty to the Dead - Charles Todd |
|---|---|
 |
Where the God of Love Hangs Out - Amy Bloom Four standalone and two sets of linked stories in this collection explore the myriad forms and mysterious powers of love.

 |
The Book of the Fathers - Miklos Vamos A true family saga, the story of twelve generations and 300 years of Hungarian history, experienced by the fathers and their first-born sons. Amazing good fortunes, willful stupidity, true love, and miserable marriages play out in a nation with so many lost causes. For the generations the first-born Csillag_Stern can see the family's past and future faithfully recording "The Book of Fathers". |
 |
Too Much Happiness - Alice Munroe Ten stories in which the extraordinary is revealed in the humdrum, circumstances, and relationships between characters summon the best and the worst of human nature. Love and marriage, parenthood, and friendship, the crippling effects of cruelty on the perpetrator, and courageous or cowardly decisions form the context for these illuminating, life changing moments. |
 |
Fatal Lies - Frank Tallis This mystery is the third in an excellent series set in early 20th century Vienna. Young psychoanalyst Max Liebermann is Frued's student, a talented musician, a middling fencer, a coffeehouse regular, and best friend of a police dectective, Oskar Rheinhardt. The hub of culture, science, and political ferment, 1903 Vienna is itself a character in these books.It is the stage on which the personal, intellectual, and historical intersect with well-plotted solutions to puzzling crimes. Each volume illuminates the origins and horrors that will shake the world: here, clinical pyschologist Tallis explores the roots of fascism in schoolboy bullying. |

Remarkable Creatures - Tracy Chevalier
Two nineteenth century spinsters whose dogged perseverance won them little more than a footnote in paleontology, until recently, inspired this novel. Mary Anning, a working class girl from a seacoast village, was the first to discover dinosaur fossils, and her friend Elizabeth Philpot became her champion. Their 20-year age difference, the limitations of their society, and the factual underpinning necessarily constrict this fiction, but their struggle to revise a world view from biblical to evolutionary makes for leisurely reflection. |
 |
Goldengrove - Francine Prose When a family loses a talented daughter suddenly, her younger sister Nico must cope with grieving parents, the desolate boyfriend, a small town's response to tragedy, as well as her own guilt and grief. This coming-of-age novel plumbs the depths of what is unknowable in human relationships and the source of resilient will to go on. |
 |
The Victoria Vanishes - Christopher Fowler The unexplained deaths of lone women in pubs - and the overnight disappearance of the pub itself - implicate the highest levels of government. This is the last mystery (#5) of the Peculiar Crimes Unit, a band of unorthodox investigators barely tolerated by the Metropolitan Police who nonetheless rely on them to keep London "free, open, and comfortable." |
 |
Pictures at an Exhibition - Sara Houghteling A first-novel about the community of art dealers in Paris before, during, and after Nazi occupation, it focuses on reluctant medical student Max Berenson. His father refuses to entrust him with the family business, despite his desire to prove himself capable. After the war he tries to recover his family's art and his lost love, Rose, a character based on the life of an actual double-agent who tracked the Nazi looting of galleries and museums. |
 |
The White Tiger - Aravind Adiga This debut novel won Britain's highest prize for fiction: The Man Booker. Balram, a low-caste Indian from a poor village has risen, by theft and murder, from chauffeur to "entrepreneur" in Bangalore. His explanation of his life and society in a letter to the premier of the People's Republic of China is surprisingly appealing and even funny. |
 |
Isaac's Torah - Angel Wagenstein The subtitle - Concerning the life of Isaac Jacob Blumenfeld through two world wars, three concentration camps, and five motherlands - seems to say it all, except it cannot capture the wonderful spirit amidst tragedy, the life-affirming reflections and humor of this compassionate survivor. |
 |
The Road Home - Rose Tremaine Grieving widower Lev leaves his Eastern European rural village for the economic advantages of London. What he finds there - the pain of exile, the conditions of employment, the victimization of immigrants, the kindness of strangers, the joys of community, even new love - inspires and discourages him, as he makes his way toward a new life. |
