by Christy Lefteri
“A tender depiction of loss and healing that raises questions about guilt and blame in the age of climate change.”—People
“As with The Beekeeper of Aleppo, Lefteri transports the reader to a once lush and now destroyed world.”—Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Nightingale
Gorgeously written, sweeping in scope and intimate in tone, The Book of Fire is a masterful work about the search for meaning in the wake of tragedy, as well as the universal ties that bind people together, and to the land that they call home. -

by José Saramago
An unassuming family struggles to keep up with the ruthless pace of progress in “a genuinely brilliant novel” from a Nobel Prize winner (Chicago Tribune).
A Los Angeles Times Best Book of the Year and a New York Times Notable Book
“The struggle of the individual against bureaucracy and anonymity is one of the great subjects of modern literature, and Saramago is often matched with Kafka as one of its premier exponents. Apt as the comparison is, it doesn’t convey the warmth and rueful human dimension of novels like Blindness and All the Names. Those qualities are particularly evident in his latest brilliant, dark allegory, which links the encroaching sterility of modern life to the parable of Plato’s cave . . . [a] remarkably generous and eloquent novel.” —Publishers Weekly
