******Dedmayne Rectory is quietly decaying, its striped chintz and darkened rooms 
a bastion of outmoded Victorian values. Here Mary has spent 35 years devoting 
herself to her sister, now dead, and to her father, Canon Jocelyn. Although she is 
pitied by her neighbors for this muted existence, Mary is content. But when she 
meets Robert Herbert, Mary's ease is destroyed and years of suppressed emotion 
surface through her desire for him. First published in 1924, this novel is a rich 
exploration of Mary's relationship with her father, of her need for Robert, and the way 
in which, through each, she comes to a clearer understanding of love.

******The Pulitzer Prize-winning author - "an immensely gifted writer and a magical 
prose stylist" (Michiko Kakutani, New York Times) - offers his first major work of 
nonfiction, an autobiographical narrative as inventive, beautiful, and powerful as 
his acclaimed, award-winning fiction.

A shy manifesto, an impractical handbook, the true story of a fabulist, an entire life 
in parts and pieces, Manhood for Amateurs is the first sustained work of personal 
writing from Michael Chabon. In these insightful, provocative, slyly interlinked essays, 
one of our most brilliant and humane writers presents his autobiography and his vision 
of life in the way so many of us experience our own lives: as a series of reflections, regrets, 
and reexaminations, each sparked by an encounter, in the present, that holds some legacy of the past.

What does it mean to be a man today? Chabon invokes and interprets and struggles to reinvent 
for us, with characteristic warmth and lyric wit, the personal and family history that haunts him 
even as - simply because - it goes on being written every day. As a devoted son, as a passionate 
husband, and above all as the father of four young Americans, Chabon presents his memories 
of childhood, of his parents' marriage and divorce, of moments of painful adolescent comedy 
and giddy encounters with the popular art and literature of his own youth, as a theme played - 
on different instruments, with a fresh tempo and in a new key - by the mad quartet of which he 
now finds himself co-conductor.

At once dazzling, hilarious, and moving, Manhood for Amateurs is destined to become a classic.

******Damon Mee was last seen in a blurred security video on the dance floor of a 
Kirkaldy nightclub. It was a routine missing persons case and it wasn't even on his 
patch, but inspector John rebus said he'd look into it as a favour to the boy's father, 
a friend from his school days. In the deft hands of Ian Rankin, the ripples of the 
investigation widen rapidly. They lead to the club's greasy owner, to a slightly bent 
casion croupier, to a drop dead blonde whose name nobody seems to know, to a Hibs 
striker with a talent for goals and a weakness for gambling and finally to the shadowed 
men who call the shots in Edinburgh's underworld. When it's over, Rebus has repaid 
a debt and his boss has received an unexpected birthday present.

Travels Through France & Italy 5 of 5  
******Travels Through France And Italy was written by Tobias Smollett and was published 
in 1766. After suffering the loss of his only child, 15-year-old Elizabeth, in April of 1763, 
Smollett left England in June of that year. Together with his wife, he traveled across 
France to Nice. In the autumn of the next year, he visited Genoa, Rome, Florence, 
and other towns of Italy. After staying in Nice for the winter he returned to London 
by June 1765. Travels through France and Italy is his account of this journey. 
Smollett describes in accurate detail the natural phenomena, history, social life, 
economics, diet, and morals of the places he visited.

Travels With a Donkey 6.8 - The Camisards 
Travels With a Donkey 7.8 - The Heart of the Country  
Travels With a Donkey 8.8 - Farewell, Modestine!
******Travels recounts Stevenson's 12-day, 120-mile solo hiking journey 
through the sparsely populated and impoverished areas of the Cévennes 
 mountains in south-central France in 1878. The character of Modestine, 
a stubborn, manipulative donkey he could never quite get the better of, 
is memorable. It is one of the earliest accounts which presented hiking 
and camping  outdoors as a recreational activity. It also tells of 
commissioning one of the first sleeping bags, large and heavy enough 
to require a donkey to carry.

******Amazon Best Books of the Month, April 2010: It's bold to start an account of the 
assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. without a single mention of James Earl Ray. 
But in Hellhound on His Trail, Ray's absence is essential--in his place, Hampton Sides 
traces the alter egos Ray created after escaping from prison and beginning his haphazard 
journey toward Memphis. Sides meticulously constructs parallel portraits of two very 
different men--one, the larger-than-life figurehead of the Civil Rights movement; the other, 
a nondescript loner with a spurious and violent history, whose identity was as fluid as his 
motives. The narrative builds to the staggering and heartbreaking moment of King's 
assassination, then races on through the immediate fallout: the worldwide manhunt led 
by J. Edgar Hoover's FBI; Ray's nearly successful attempt to flee to Rhodesia; and the riots 
that erupted throughout the United States as racial tensions reached a breaking point. Sides's 
storytelling packs a visceral punch, and in Hellhound on His Trail, he crafts an authoritative and r
iveting account of two intersecting lives that altered the course of American history. --Lynette Mong
