Jodi Picoult brings out “The Book of Two Ways,” about the life-changing moment Dawn Edelstein experiences when a plane - the one she’s aboard - is about to crash. Backman has a way with people, so we anticipate a good read here.
We haven’t yet lost the fight.”įredrik Backman, author of “A Man Called Ove” and “My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She’s Sorry,” brings readers tears, but also laughter in dark times with “Anxious People,” about a would-be bank robber and eight extremely anxious people who find they have more in common than they realized. Says the author: “I hope that’s what this book inspires readers to do. Concluding that the battle to save Earth is not yet lost, she decides on action to help preserve it. She seeks peace and forgiveness through her travels and witnesses the beauty that remains in the world. The tern migratory path extends from the Arctic to the Antarctic each year, so her journey is challenging.įranny’s life story is equally difficult over and over, she feels compelled to leave her husband and follow migratory birds. Franny is much like the few remaining animals: migratory and wild. The author imagines the world after extinction has become complete. There’s little exaggeration in her story: 60 percent of the planet’s wild animals have been eliminated over the past 50 years. Her quest is wild and at times brutal, but also beautiful in its search for life. She decides to follow the likely last migration of the few remaining Arctic terns.
In the novel, ornithologist Franny Stone lives in a world where nearly all animals have disappeared through climate change. “Migrations” by Charlotte McConaghy, tops the August list. The American Booksellers Association chooses a monthly list of recommendations culled from its membership of independent bookstores. It’s an excellent, eye-opening read which will leave many a reader “woke” to the need for racial justice, true change and finally, hope for equality. Many readers are having their eyes opened by this absorbing novel, which has been issued as a movie too. The pressures of such a life on young people, families and even businesses in her neighborhood are harrowing, and made very real by the author.
