Purple
America
___
Purple America America begins in a bathtub and ends in Long Island. In between, Rick Moody's latest novel explores the landscape of a family in crisis. Dexter (Hex) Raitliffe, a freelance publicist, returns home to care for his mother, Billie, who is dying by inches of a neurological disease that will rob her of motion, of speech, and finally of thought. After her second husband abandons her, Billie ́s only hope for assisted suicide lies in her son. Unfortunately, Hex is barely able to conduct his own life, much less take the life of his mother.

As Moody weaves his tale of this fateful Friday evening, he juxtaposes themes of aging, obsolescence, and physical decline with an accident at the nuclear power plant where his stepfather works. What lifts this novel above its rather depressing subject matter is Moody's unsentimental storytelling and the soaring language with which he gives his characters voice. Purple America is by turns lyrical, tragic, ferocious, and funny.

Nanda
Devi
___
During the height of the Cold War, in 1965 the Pentagon and India conspired to spy on China's nuclear detonations by installing a listening device at 25,000 feet on the mountain, Nanda Devi (Sanctuary), in India.

That mission was a spectacular failure. The nuclear-powered device disappears into the ice, threatening the very existence of the country of India.

Based on a true event, the story is a parallel narration from Captain Kohli (The leader of the expedition) and Rob Schaller (the only doctor in the group of climbers) s point of view.
The
Collaborator
___
The Collaborator is based on Mirza Waheed’s acclaimed novel. It is Kashmir in the early 1990s and war has finally reached the isolated village of Nowgam close to the Pakistan border. Four teenage boys, who used to spend their afternoons playing cricket, or singing ballads down by the river, have disappeared one by one, to cross into Pakistan and join the movement against the Indian army.

Only one of their friends, the son of the headman, is left behind. The families in the village begin to flee, to search for a place of greater safety.

But the headman will not allow his family to leave. And, whilst the headman watches his dreams give way beneath the growing violence, his son, under the brutal, drunken gaze of the Indian army captain, is seemingly forced to collaborate and go into the valley to count the corpses, fearing, each day, that he will discover one of his friends lying amongst the dead. "The Colloborator" is a stunningly humane work of storytelling with a poignant and unpredictable 14 year old hero at its heart. In one of the most shocking and brilliantly compelling novels of recent times Mirza Waheed lights our way into the heart of a war that is all too real.

The 
Piano Tuner 
___

The Piano Tuner is based on an acclaimed novel written by DANIEL MASON set in 1800’s Colonial Burma. It’s in the vein of THE ENGLISH PATIENT, ATONEMENT & OUT OF AFRICA set in the Far East.

In 1886, a shy, middle aged Piano Tuner named Edgar Drake receives a commission from the British War Office, to travel to the remote jungles of North East Burma and deliver a rare piano belonging to an eccentric army surgeon who has proven mysteriously indispensible to the imperial design.

From this irresistible beginning, The Piano Tuner launches its protagonist into a world of seductive loveliness and nightmarish intrigue. And as he follows Drake’s journey, Mason dazzles readers with his erudition, moves them with his vibrantly rendered characters, and enmeshes them in the unbreakable spell of his storytelling.
