08.10: Chitra Viraraghavan
2015-07-15 01:03:13| Powells Books Events Calendar
The protagonist of Chitra Viraraghavan's The Americans (Fourth Estate India) is Tara, a single Indian woman in her mid-30s who travels to America to look after her teenage niece while her sister Kamala is dealing with her autistic son's treatment. Woven expertly together, The Americans tells the stories of 11 people whose lives span the country from Louisville to Chicago to Los Angeles to Portland to Boston. And all of their stories connect back to Tara. For fans of Jhumpa Lahiri's Interpreter of Maladies, The Americans is an eloquent and heart-warming debut that brings up questions of race, ethnicity, and point of origin, and explores the puzzles of identity, place, and human connection.

Set in Arco, Idaho, in 1970, Val Brelinski's powerfully affecting first novel, The Girl Who Slept with God (Viking), tells the story of three sisters: young Frances, gregarious and strong-willed Jory, and moral-minded Grace. Their father, Oren, is a respected member of the community and science professor at the local college. Yet their mother's depression and Grace's religious fervor threaten the seemingly perfect family, whose world is upended when Grace returns from a missionary trip to Mexico and discovers she's pregnant with — she believes — the child of God. The Girl Who Slept with God is a literary achievement about a family's desperate need for truth, love, purity, and redemption.
