A BARACK OBAMA SUMMER READING PICK 2023 ''You''ll be lucky if you read a more engaging novel this year'' The Times Thriller of the Month April 2023 ''At the heart of the book is a masterly psychological study of racism . Lehane (who was a writer on The Wire ) provides top-notch dialogue, an absorbing mystery and an evocation of a historical moment foreshadowing America''s 21st-century ethnic divide '' Sunday Times , Thriller of the Month '' Small Mercies is thought-provoking, engaging, enraging, and can''t-put-it-down entertainment'' Stephen King ''A jaw-dropping thriller... a resonant, unflinching story written by a novelist who is simply one of the best around'' Gillian Flynn New York Time s bestselling author Dennis Lehane returns with a masterpiece to rival Mystic River - an all-consuming tale of revenge, family love, festering hate, and insidious power, set against one of the most tumultuous episodes in Boston''s history. ''Mrs. Fennessy, please go home.'' ''And do what?'' ''Whatever you do when you''re home.'' ''And then what?'' ''Get up the next day and do it again.'' She shakes her head. ''That''s not living.'' ''It is if you can find the small blessings.'' She smiles, but her eyes shine with agony. ''All my small blessings are gone.'' In the summer of 1974 a heatwave blankets Boston and Mary Pat Fennessey is trying to stay one step ahead of the bill collectors. Mary Pat has lived her entire life in the housing projects of ''Southie'', the Irish American enclave that stubbornly adheres to old tradition and stands proudly apart.One night Mary Pat''s teenage daughter Jules stays out late and doesn''t come home. That same evening, a young Black man is found dead, struck by a subway train under mysterious circumstances.The two events seem unconnected. But Mary Pat, propelled by a desperate search for her missing daughter, begins turning over stones best left untouched - asking questions that bother Marty Butler, chieftain of the Irish mob, and the men who work for him, men who don''t take kindly to any threat to their business. Set against the hot, tumultuous months when the city''s desegregation of its public schools exploded in violence, Small Mercies is a superb thriller, a brutal depiction of criminality and power, and an unflinching portrait of the dark heart of American racism.

All Things Are Too Small - Becca Rothfeld - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Booktok.dk

TIME MAGAZINE''S 100 MUST-READ BOOKS OF 2024 NEW YORK TIMES '' 100 MOST NOTABLE BOOKS OF 2024''Bracing and brilliant ... scintillating writing of breadth and power'' Kate Kellaway, Observer ''A radical and important book'' James Wood, author of Serious Noticing Seriously precise ... and very funny'' Telegraph In All Things Are Too Small , virtuoso young critic and philosopher Becca Rothfeld turns her clear gaze to a series of interconnected cultural and political questions - about aesthetics, taste, literature, equality, power and sexuality. In a healthy culture, she argues, economic security allows for wild extremes of aesthetic experimentation, yet in our society we''ve got it flipped. The gap between rich and poor yawns hideously wide, while we compensate with misguided attempts to effect equality in love and art, where it does not belong.Our culture''s embrace of minimalism has left our souls impoverished: decluttering has reduced our living spaces to empty non-places; the mindfulness trend has emptied our minds of the thoughts that make us who we are; the regularization of sex has drained it of unpredictability and therefore true eroticism; and our quest for balance has yielded fictions whose protagonists aspire to excise their appetites. As intellectually illuminating as it is gloriously carnal and earthy, All Things Are Too Small is a much needed tonic in a world of oppressive sterility and limitation, and a soul cry for derangement, imbalance, obsession, ravishment and disorder.

BY THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE TALENTED MR RIPLEY , CAROL AND STRANGERS ON A TRAIN Completed just months before Patricia Highsmith''s death in 1995, Small g explores the labyrinthine intricacies of passion, sexuality, and jealousy in a charming tale of love misdirected. ''It has a serenity rarely found in Highsmith''s world'' GEOFFREY ELBORN, GUARDIAN ''What is most remarkable in this novel is the empathy . . . with which Highsmith writes about gay men'' FRANCIS KING, SPECTATOR ''Like Ripley, [Highsmith''s characters] burn in a reader''s memory'' L OS ANGELES TIMES BOOK REVIEW At the ''small g'', a Zurich bar known for its not exclusively gay clientele, the lives of a small community are played out one summer.Rickie Markwalder is a designer whose lover Petey was brutally murdered. Rickie and his performing dog Lulu are regulars at the bar, as are vindictive Renate, a seamstress, and her teenage apprentice Luisa. Into their lives comes Teddie, impressionable and beautiful, and a catalyst for the series of events that will change everything.Patricia Highsmith''s final novel is an intricate exploration of love and sexuality, the depths of spite and the triumph of human kindness. It is a work that, in the tradition of Shakespeare''s A Midsummer Night''s Dream , shows us how bizarre and unpredictable love can be. Small g , in the words of her biographer Andrew Wilson, is an ''extended fairy tale suggesting that . . . happiness is precarious and . . . romance should be embraced''.
