A rapturous new novel of first love in a time of war-from the celebrated author of The Last Van Gogh.
This story begins in 2000, when 85-year-old Josef Kohn and 81-year-old Lenka Maizel rediscover each other after 61 years. They had fallen in love and were married before World War II, but were almost immediately separated when the Nazis invaded Czechoslovakia and only Josef (and his family) could get out. Lenka refused to leave unless her family could go also. Although Josef intended to send for them soon, neither Josef nor Lenka realized that by 1939, when Josef left, it was already too late for the Jews.
Josef’s ship to New York was torpedoed, and he alone of his family survived. Lenka ended up at the “show camp” of Terezin, a model camp which served as the only one into which Germans would allow foreign observers, where her ability to draw enabled her to survive for a while by making propaganda pictures for the Nazis. [Terezin was a special camp made to show the world how “well” the Jews were being treated. In order to accomplish this, however, the starving Jews who were there needed to be replaced constantly with new, healthier looking inmates. In all, nearly 90,000 were transferred from Terezin to points further east and almost certain death. Roughly 33,000 died in Theresienstadt itself. Fifteen thousand children passed through Terezin, with only around one hundred surviving, none under the age of 14.] In spite of all the death at Terezin, it was in fact not a death camp, where so many Jews went straight to the gas chambers. But finally, in November, 1944, Lenka and her family were shipped east to the largest and most notorious death camp at Auschwitz-Birkenau. [While exact figures still are disputed, historians generally agree that the number of Jews killed at Auschwitz fell somewhere between one and one-point-six million. The head of the camp, however, Rudolf Höss, testified to the War Crimes Investigation Unit of the British Army of the Rhine, “I personally arranged on orders received from Himmler in May 1941 the gassing of two million persons between June-July 1941 and the end of 1943, during which time I was commandant of Auschwitz.” Most but not all of the victims were Jews.] Lenka survived this ordeal also, and ended up marrying an American soldier she met after the war while she was in a displaced persons camp.
Josef, meanwhile, went on to marry a woman he met in New York, a woman who was haunted her whole life by having left her family behind in order to survive. Ironically, it is just that nightmare that Lenka wanted to avoid by not leaving with Josef when she could have, and staying back with her family.
Although both Lenka and Joseph came to love their second spouses, their hearts and minds had been broken, and the relationship they had with their new spouses was never anything like the love they had with each other.
And then, in 2000, both second spouses having died, they met again, in the most improbable circumstances, and after being convinced each other had perished long ago. One could only hope they could find some healing with one another, and realize the words spoken at their wedding so many years before: “I am my beloved, and my beloved is mine.”
This is a heart-breaking and heart-warming book with an unforgettable story. But in addition, this book is important for several reasons:
It provides a human face to the incomprehensible numbers of people railroaded to their deaths by the Nazis, and shows us quite precisely what was endured and what was lost, and why it was so hard to fight by the weakened and terrorized victims of the Nazi juggernaut.
Richman shows us not only one face of the concentration camps, but two, making it easier for readers to understand how and why some survived and some didn’t.
And it is important because it says to us, who have the leisure and freedom and strength to sit and read, to play, and to enjoy our children and our futures, that we must be eternally grateful for our blessings, and not forget those who had those blessings taken away from them.

An ancient poem and a mysterious burial inspire an enthralling historical and literary quest.
Despite the wealth of scholarship that pretends to offer proof, archaeologist Donald Gladstone knows there is no solid evidence that a real King Arthur ever existed. Still, the great popular tales spun by medieval historian Geoffrey of Monmouth, and embroidered by Chrétien de Troyes, Sir Thomas Malory, and so many others, must have found their inspiration somewhere. A dramatic archaeological find at Stonehenge and the rediscovery of an old Welsh battle poem, buried among the manuscripts of the Bodleian Library, open up enticing—and misleading—new possibilities.
When the beguiling Julia Llewellyn, a linguist working on the Oxford English Dictionary, joins Donald on the trail of clues, their fervent enthusiasms, unusual gifts, and unfulfilled yearnings prove a combustible mix. Their impassioned search for truths buried deep in the past, amid the secret places and half-forgotten legends of the British countryside, must ultimately transform them—and all our understandings of the origins of Arthur.
An intellectual and emotional journey of myriad pleasures, Finding Camlann is at its heart a love story—not only of romantic love but also the love between parents and grown children; the intense feelings of professors and students; the love of language, place, and home; and the thrill of scholarly research and detective work. Throughout, Sean Pidgeon’s lyrical prose brings together history, myth, and dream, sweeping the reader into the mysteries of the past and the pure delight of storytelling.

Another wonderful start to another wonderful series by Bergren. This series follows a girl that has been living a simple life, barely making ends meet with her family. Soon she is swept up into a world she has never seen, with a family she has never known. Alternating her point of view with Will's, one of her tour guides, gives the reader the chance to get to know both of these characters from inside and out.
Glamorous Illusions has less action/adventure to it than the River of Time series, but that doesn't mean it can't hold its own. It is all about self discovery and following one's heart. Both Cora and Will are determined to do the right thing through and through, even though they both need to learn about themselves and the changes in their world in order to do so. There are many characters in this book, but never too many that I mixed them up or was confused as to who was who, as they are all very distinct personalities. Lisa does have a way with writing strong woman and I love it!

From the remarkable Ha Jin, winner of the National Book Award for his celebrated novel Waiting, a collection of comical and deeply moving tales of contemporary China that are as warm and human as they are surprising, disturbing, and delightful.
It's difficult to think of another writer who has captured the conflicting attitudes and desires, and the still-changing conditions of daily life, of post-Cultural Revolution China as well as Ha Jin does in his second collection, which follows his NBA-winning novel, Waiting.
These 12 stories attain their significant cumulative effect through spare prose penetrated by wit, insight and a fine sense of irony. One realizes in reading them that while human nature is universal, China's cultural and political repression exacerbates such traits as fear of authority (and the desire to circumvent it), male chauvinism and suspicion of outsiders. In "The Woman from New York," a young wife and mother who goes to the States for four years finds, on her return to Muji City (where most of these tales are set), that her child, her marriage, her job and her honor are forever lost.
American business methods clash with Chinese traditions in "After Cowboy Chicken Came to Town," in which Chinese workers' anger about the behavior of their boss, Mr. Shapiro, is redoubled when they discover one of their own countrymen practicing the strange ethics of capitalism. Such varied protagonists as college professors, a factory worker, a horny cadre member, two uneducated peasants and a five-year-old girl illustrate the ways in which hardship, lack of living space, inflexible social rules and government quotas thwart happiness. The title story is perhaps the most telling indication of the clash of humanitarian feeling and bureaucratic intervention. The protagonist, who has been taught to believe that "homosexuality... originated in Western capitalism and bourgeois lifestyle," is unable to credit his own sympathy for his son-in-law, who is sent to a mental hospital to cure his "disease." Ha Jin has a rare empathy for people striving to balance the past and the future while caught on the cusp of change.

Set during the Tiananmen Square uprising of 1989, The Crazed, a novel from Ha Jin, the award-winning author of the bestseller Waiting, unites a prominent Chinese university professor who suffers a brain injury and Jien Wen, a favorite student and future son-in-law who becomes his caretaker. As Professor Yang rants about his earlier life, his bizarre outbursts begin to strike Jien as containing some truth and, considering the uncertain times, he puzzles over their meaning. When Jien realizes that his additional responsibilities make sitting for his Ph.D. exams impossible, Meimei, his fiancée, promptly discards him, branding him as unloving, since passing the exams would have ensured they would both have attended graduate school in Beijing. Unmoored from the university, and unconnected to anything else, Jien joins the student movement and as a result becomes a police suspect.
Problematic to the plot is that Meimei is hardly warm to Jien; their relationship never appears to be anything but doomed. The professor's hallucinatory diatribes comprise the bulk of the novel, and initially it seems unlikely that a story will ever evolve from these ramblings. But with Yang indisposed, minor characters from the university conspire to devise means to further their personal agendas. A mystery results, as university and literature department personnel plot to have someone other than Jien marry Meimei. Jin's prose is succinct, but the most interesting parts of Jien's life occur, unfortunately, at the end of the book, leaving readers who fell for Waiting wanting more.
