A beautiful, wealthy heiress finds herself daydreaming of meeting her prince charming. One day, there is a knock on the door of her lonely mansion - a gentleman caller at long last. She loves to play hostess; she is very old-fashioned in her tastes, serving sherry and cookies as her parents had. The handsome young man seems to enjoy them very much and gets quite tipsy. He is always intoxicated by the diamonds she wears. The afternoon passes as she shares tales of her family’s tragic history that left her orphaned at a young age.

Call Me by Your Name first swept across the world in 2007. It is the story of a sudden and powerful romance that blossoms between an adolescent boy and a summer guest at his parents' cliffside mansion on the Italian Riviera. During the restless summer weeks, unrelenting but buried currents of obsession, fascination, and desire intensify their passion as they test the charged ground between them and verge toward the one thing both already fear they may never truly find again: total intimacy.

Publisher's summary
This time his Andy had to be back at his Air Force base in 24 hours.
Roger thought to himself, 24 hours seems a lifetime.
The handsome young soldier stood in the middle of Grand Central Station watching the hands move slowly on the grand gold clock atop the round information booth.
He felt as if he was watching his life tick by...
When your country is in a war, a world war; every day is a lifetime. It felt as if Roger had been waiting all his life to find a man to love him, indeed he had been. For men in the military to love was very secret and rare...It had taken a long time to meet on leave a year ago. Now, they would have such a short time together. All there time together was short except for two weeks they had managed once on the shore of Long Island.
Andy was the first man he had ever kissed, really kissed and felt his affection returned. He had felt revelation in those warm male lips on his. He felt perhaps he wasn’t one of god’s mistakes after all, not a misfit, for he and Andy fit together perfectly right from the start.

Grieving over the death of his partner, he quickly discovered the profound consolations of the city's incessant rhythms, the sight of the Empire State Building against the night sky, and New Yorkers themselves, kindred souls that Hayes, a lifelong insomniac, encountered on late-night strolls with his camera.

Enter the Coincidence Makers - Guy, Emily, and Eric - three seemingly ordinary people who work for a secret organization devoted to creating and carrying out coincidences.

Bill Hayes came to New York City in 2009 with a one-way ticket and only the vaguest idea of how he would get by. But, at 48 years old, having spent decades in San Francisco, he craved change. Grieving over the death of his partner, he quickly discovered the profound consolations of the city's incessant rhythms, the sight of the Empire State Building against the night sky, and New Yorkers themselves, kindred souls that Hayes, a lifelong insomniac, encountered on late-night strolls with his camera.

What if the drink you just spilled, the train you just missed, or the lottery ticket you just found was not just a random occurrence? What if it's all part of a bigger plan? What if there's no such thing as a chance encounter? What if there are people we don't know determining our destiny? And what if they are even planning the fate of the world? Enter the Coincidence Makers - Guy, Emily, and Eric - three seemingly ordinary people who work for a secret organization devoted to creating and carrying out coincidences. What the rest of the world sees as random occurrences, are, in fact, carefully orchestrated events.

In the five years since Julia last visited her aunt and uncle’s home in Malibu, her life has been turned upside down by her daughter’s death.

Roberto expertly tends the trees, using the money to support his extended Mexican family. What connection could these two people share? The answer comes as Roberto reveals the heartbreaking story of his own loss – a pain Julia knows all too well, but for one striking difference: Roberto’s daughter was lost but never found.

One of the most recognizable young poets in America, Olivia Gatwood dazzles with her tribute to contemporary American womanhood in her debut book, New American Best Friend. Gatwood's poems deftly deconstruct traditional stereotypes. The focus shifts from childhood to adulthood, gender to sexuality, violence to joy. And always and inexorably, the book moves toward celebration, culminating in a series of odes: odes to the body, to tough women, to embracing your own journey in all its failures and triumphs.

A tour de force, Amulet is a highly charged first-person, semi-hallucinatory novel that embodies in one woman's voice the melancholy and violent recent history of Latin America. Amulet is a monologue, like Bolaño's acclaimed debut in English, By Night in Chile. The speaker is Auxilio Lacouture, a Uruguayan woman who moved to Mexico in the 1960s, becoming the "Mother of Mexican Poetry", hanging out with the young poets in the cafés and bars of the University.
