The Dream of the Decade - The London Novels
Afshin Rattansi
The first deals with the aftermath of the Big Bang in the City of London and how it disturbs all relationships in the British capital, exacerbating differences between rich and poor. It follows an unnamed protaganist fall from grace in the City as he watches London almost tear itself apart over social unrest.In Reproach, Rattansi deals with Londoners trapped in a bar during a suspected terrorist attack. In A Taste of Money, he examines the omnipotence of property prices for Londoners, how it affects all who live in the capital. And in Good Morning, Britain, he satirises the way news is gathered and disseminated in Britain during a war in Europe and burgeoning insecurity for Londoners.
Liquid Bones
Cassandra Zaruba
The people living on the outskirts of Bismarck, North Dakota rarely see a crime worse than petty theft. So when a couple of residents disappear, no one guesses that they were murdered. Five key characters piece together the story: Emilia is a recent college graduate on her way to North Dakota to care for her last living relative. Luke is an art dealer whose real passion is snowboarding. Gavin is a basketball player-turned-coach with a guilty conscience, and Caleb, a theology student, is tormented by unpredictable and unwarranted visions. The final character, known as “The Emperor of Ice Cream,” is a former psychiatrist and hypnotherapist who turns into a seemingly deranged killer. These characters’ lives become intertwined in a series of events that lead to the shocking truth of who the Emperor really is.
Wuffy the Wonder Dog, the "one and only" Wuffy in the entire world, is a puppy of many talents. Wuffy paints (not very well) and writes songs (in Wuffanese, of course), but he is most proud of his operatic voice and his bushy tail, both of which often get him into trouble.
Wuffy’s best friend—whenever she allows it—is a "well-educated" cat named Elizabeth, who doesn't always value Wuffy or his talents. Wuffy’s mission in life is to become something—anything—for which she will appreciate him. Whether he is a scientist experimenting on chocolate, an actor playing the role of a gentle wolf, a doctor who cures sick little girls better than chicken soup, a hunter, a poet, or any of his other chosen vocations—Wuffy always has the best intentions and the noblest goals. Unfortunately, the outcome of his attempts to impress Elizabeth usually isn't quite what he expects.
Though the road to wisdom is not a straight path for Wuffy the Wonder Dog, he learns many lessons along the way. He also teaches his readers the power of friendship and forgiveness.
