Here are some of our favorite new books:

The Senator's Wife The Senator's Wife
by Miller, Sue
Once again Sue Miller takes us deep into the private lives of women with this mesmerizing portrait of two marriages exposed in all their shame and imperfection, and in their obdurate, unyielding love. The author of the iconic "The Good Mother" and the best-selling "While I Was Gone" brings her marvelous gifts to a powerful story of two unconventional women who unexpectedly change each other's lives.
Meri is newly married, pregnant, and standing on the cusp of her life as a wife and mother, recognizing with some terror the gap between reality and expectation. Delia Naughton--wife of the two-term liberal senator Tom Naughton--is Meri's new neighbor in the adjacent New England town house. Delia's husband's chronic infidelity has been an open secret in Washington circles, but despite the complexity of their relationship, the bond between them remains strong. What keeps people together, even in the midst of profound betrayal? How can a journey imperiled by, and sometimes indistinguishable from, compromise and disappointment culminate in healing and grace? Delia and Meri find themselves leading strangely parallel lives, both reckoning with the contours and mysteries of marriage, one refined and abraded by years of complicated intimacy, the other barely begun.
Here are all the things for which Sue Miller has always been beloved--the complexity of experience precisely rendered, the richness of character and emotion, the superb economy of style--fused with an utterly engrossing story that has a great deal to say to women, and men, of all ages.

Quote of the Day
"Books are the best of things, well used; abused, among the worst. What is the right use? What is the one end which all means go to effect? They are for nothing but to inspire."

- Ralph Waldo Emerson
The American Scholar
From The Quotable Book Lover (Lyons Press)
Classic Cyberpunk

Back in the 1980s, as the personal computer (ah, those bulky, black-screened set-ups of yore!) began infiltrating our middle-class homes with virulent speed, its effects on our lives were expressed in a strange, new, and exciting literary voice . . .
Stand on Zanzibar
by Brunner, John
Another important influence on cyberpunk, this classic 1969 Hugo Award winner is best enjoyed for its fully-realized imagining of an overcrowded world set in a 2010 of acceleratubes, intelligent computers, and mass-marketed psychedelics. Remarkably prophetic in its speculations.

Belong to Me
by de los Santos, Marisa
Belong To Me is a portrait of suburban assimilation filled with heart, laughter, and recognition. Marisa de los Santos manages to write about the funny, awkward situations that so many of us have endured, while creating characters as real as your own next-door neighbors.--Danielle Marshall, Powell's Books, Inc (Portland, OR)
