2015-01-16 00:05:23| Powells Books Events Calendar
A child of the Rhodesian wars and daughter of two deeply complicated parents, Alexandra Fuller is no stranger to pain. But the disintegration of Fuller's own marriage leaves her shattered. Looking to pick up the pieces of her life, Fuller, author of Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight, finally confronts the tough questions about her past, about the American man she married, and about the family she left behind in Africa. Fuller's new memoir threads panoramic vistas with her deepest revelations as a fully grown woman and mother. Fuller reveals how, after spending a lifetime fearfully waiting for someone to show up and save her, she discovered that, in the end, we all simply have to save ourselves. An unforgettable book, Leaving before the Rains Come (Penguin Press) is a story of sorrow grounded in the tragic grandeur and rueful joy only to be found in Fuller's Africa.
02.03: The Golem and the Jinni
2014-01-14 00:36:36| Powells Books Events Calendar
In The Golem and the Jinni (Harper Perennial), a chance meeting between mythical beings takes readers on a dazzling journey through cultures in turn-of-the-century New York. Chava is a golem, a creature made of clay, brought to life by a disgraced rabbi who dabbles in dark Kabbalistic magic and dies at sea on the voyage from Poland. Ahmad is a jinni, a being of fire born in the ancient Syrian desert, trapped in an old copper flask and released in New York City, though still not entirely free. Ahmad and Chava become unlikely friends and soul mates with a mystical connection. Marvelous and compulsively readable, Helene Wecker's debut novel weaves strands of Yiddish and Middle Eastern literature, historical fiction, and magical fable into an inventive and unforgettable tale.

Stuck in a marriage with the wealthy and controlling Alistair, she lives at the edges of her life, secretly helping Jane remove the dangerous fey beauty from the wealthy society women who paid for it. But when the chancy procedure turns deadly, Jane goes missing — and is implicated in a murder.
