O‘Callaghan, Billy: My Coney Island Baby.
A quiet, intense drama of late-flowering intimacy, MY
CONEY ISLAND BABY condenses, within the course of
a single day, the histories, landscapes, tragedies and
moments of wonder that constitute the lives of two
people who, although born worlds apart, have been
drawn together. O’Callaghan, a masterful prose stylist,
has created a devastatingly powerful novel about two
unforgettable characters.

Powers, Kevin: A Shout in the Ruins.
Kevin Powers returns to his native Virginia before and
during the Civil War, and ninety years later. He decribes
with emotional depth the nature of random violence, the
necessity of compassion, and the fragility and preciousness
of life. A stunning novel about what we leave behind, what
